Anyone seen this figure under 500usd yet? I saw 499usd, but I have hope my wait list will converted and that a dozen of so websites that I emailed about cancelled orders will come true...

You think collectible stores keep like 3 of them and sell them on eBay for a high price?
I been wondering that since the longest.

If my WL doesn't convert, there is no way in hell I'm paying over retail for this.

Oh no, I talked to Sideshow about their biggest anime stores in the US that get them in huge numbers that way I play it safe and see If I can get them at retail price. It all started with a dream of a opening a Hot Toys store like the one in Hong Kong in the states, only to be crushed by Sideshow by saying that selling Hot Toys alone won't let me keep my toy store open... and Hot toys in HK and JP all point fingers to Sideshow since they are their main distributor...
But we will see I have 800 set aside for a mk vii but I don't really want to pay that kind of money considering I want to squeeze in Bane and Catwoman and Hulk in XD
PLUS I refuse to buy them from mom and pop shops in my city, the store I went to "Displays" them before selling them and I don't like the idea that they collect dust for days on end and that they would sell me an open box item since they don't get that much. They had joker 2.0, Captain America and Thor for good prices but still...

Wow, didn't realise my post would get so many responses 
Just don't think it looks like RDJ, from the nose down it just looks more like Clooney to me, the top lip looks a little to thin and jawline/chin protrude too much.
Dunno what was going on with the size of the original pic I posted

For the people still hunting for the Mark VII, hold tight and don't jump off the ledge yet and overpay dearly.
As soon as sideshow gets this just lurk on eBay every chance you get. The mom and pop shops will get their stocks in and will post them for more reasonable prices in the US. If you are diligent, you'll snag one for a good price. There should be a good 2-3 weeks of opportunity to get a decent priced one. Many of these etailers on eBay aren't scalpers. They need to move product fast to make the bills and are genuinely moving product.

That's exactly what thought.
post the pics side by side...
Seriously, who is this?
I'll probably get flamed for posting spoilers...
but that's Tony Stark. He's Iron Man.

Thanks for the link. I feel better about the head sculpt. He does look better. I'll just have to wait and see until I get mine.

What would that achieve? Are you saying you still cant see the Clooney resemblance from my combined pic?
It kind of reminds me of the guy in IM3 who wanted to be like Stark.

I filled the circular gap on the MKVII chest piece today.
There's a small rough part which i will fix tomorrow.
The rest was sanded from 240 grit through 400, 600, 800, 1000, 1200, 1400, 1800, 2000, 2500 all the way to 3000 grit. It's almost as smooth as glass and will give a nice pull. All i'll need to work out is what colour paint to paint it to give it an authentic MKVII look.
