Hot Toys MMS Iron Man Suit-Up Gantry with and w/o Mk IV

[Username]

I don't have a Mk4 so I imagine if I order the gantry I'll just end up buying a 4 somewhere. The old can of worms.

If you have any other marks than the MKI, they will work fine. I have a MKIII in mine. I have MKI to VII displayed across two shelves with Tony, and so i don't want to spare the MKIV to go in the gantry.
After all, Tony used the gantry with the MKII, MKIII, MKIV and MKVI.

Even Tony works with the Gantry.

I do have others that I could put in there. Was trying to talk myself out of it.

I usually don't do a very good job. Ha!

You and me both, brother.

I remember someone posting a pic of the Gantry with the Mark II in it a long time ago & it was fantastic.

I'm thinking I may display it too b/c after all, I'm pretty sure it was seeing the Mark II on the big screen initially that set off my Iron Man collecting addiction

Absolutely!
The Mk.II with all the pop-off panels and exposed insides, is a great armor to pose with the Gantry.

I just went through the entire thread.
Are any of these the one you meant?

i really love how this looks now

Finally got this guy set up! Only phone pics at the moment

Was so hard to get the set up to be perfectly symmetrical but that's what photoshop is for

This thing is frigging amazing and i'm so happy to have it at last.

Why did you sift through the entire thread?

Well i only needed to sift through the portion of the thread where people had them in hand.
And i have my forum settings at 40 posts per page, so it's easy to scroll down through forty posts and find pics of the MKII in there. Took about five minutes in total.

 

[Y4NK33 PL4N3T]

Oh, good.

Last shots posted are stunning.

I want this but all I got is the mark 7 and hes with the avengers so I need another iron man which makes this an expensive extension to the collection.

Sometimes these things are hard to justify.
I got my gantry for less than half price. I was really lucky.
There are deals out there on occasion.

Yeah ive seen the gantry for decent prices out there. But the iron mans jeez you cant get a mark 4 or 6 for under 400 its crazy.

Definitely use those points on this fellas.
Great presence on your display. If you display it among other 1/6 figures, friends and family gravitate towards it because of it's size and details.

I keep an eye on the facebook collecting pages.
When the MKVII came out and was in short supply(No-one that didn't already have an order was able to find one that is), i had put 8 on preorder and used them as trading/selling fodder to pick up the gaps in my collection.
I used one to get a relatively mint MKIV(Albeit with pink hip armour, but that just took me twenty minutes to fix).
It might be the same when some of the IM3 MKs come out.
Or if you were able to secure a Midas if they ever go on retail. There will *definitely* be someone out there who would trade a IV or a VI for a Midas.

Say, what is a good price on a loose Mk IV from the gantry set? Just the figure, no Stark head, no extra hands, loose?

It still commands a fairly high price.
Could still be as high as $280, even loose.
It's a classic armour.

 

[Y4NK33 PL4N3T]

Agreed. The body alone I've seen for $200 and that's with no legs or arms.

Bashing any IM armor other than the Mark 2 AUV isn't cost effective like other figure lines.

Hmmm, I can get just the figure for $200 but the flaps are missing. It's not like I'll ever see the back of it when it's displayed, right?

 

[Y4NK33 PL4N3T]

Buy it yesterday.
