Hot Toys - MMS185 - The Avengers: Iron Man MK VII Official Specs & Pics

[Darkmatter]

Same boat man. Almost all armors are factory sealed still. Looked at the 2 open MKIVSP and WM Milk and they are fine. Letting it ride until my display is built to put them all in. More laziness on my part than anything. I can wipe corrosion with a q-tip and water/baking soda if it happens, no biggie.

had a new ss stealth iron man comiquette (replacement from ss) arrive with batteries in place and leaking. but the statue had so many factory scuffs and scrapes that i kept this one because it was flawless. did the q-tip / baking soda cleaning. looked brand new again. then i treated the plastic battery holder and connections with a tiny bit of Vaseline to ward off future corrosion.

Is there anyone who has been doing flexpay that received a 2 week shipping notice? Or is just those who opted to pay in full?

 

[bonestockbrz]

No flex payers got the 2 week notice. We got screwed by Sideshow and now are forced to wait an additional month for a figure sideshow has already collected min. 50% from us. It so insulting we have to wait. Im beyond irrate because the bump happened last week and sideshow is doing NOTHING to help us.

You can agree or disagree, but flex pay should get priority. We didnt even get the option for early flex pay, which is what bothers me the most.

Well earlier today I spent an hour taking all the batteries out of my marks (II to IV etc) not one leak or sign of corrosion even on the old Mark II. War Machine was fine as well but perhaps had a little residual build up between the batteries.

Harumphhh! You should ask for your money back!

It's just another perk to buying the exclusive. If you're gonna pay extra money for a bonus item, it's also kinda nice to get priority shipping with the extra cash spent.

Their exclusives haven't been more than the regular versions in quite some time. Pretty much across the board from Hot Toys to their own licenses (Star Wars, G.I.Joe) the exclusive version is the same price as the regular version. That's why I buy the exclusives from SSC rather than somewhere else that has the regular version for less than SSC.

No Free shipping on Exclusives as of late. So you are paying more.

Huh. I hadn't noticed that as I always go for the exclusives. Not a big deal to me though. I figure on tax and shipping on everything and if they offer free or discounted shipping then I consider it a bonus. Well, now I know and knowing ...

The main reason I ordered the regular over the exclusive. I figured that small green piece of plastic wasn't worth the extra 12+ dollars.
EDIT: But now I'm regretting that decision seeing as I have to wait several more weeks than I would if I did get the exclusive.

 

[LipSmack]

damn, i thought the watch batteries were safe and the reason they didn't come with AA or AAA if needed was because of leaks. i have several sealed figures. has anyone else had this quandary? unseal just to check for leakage?

Round 3. Begin!

 

[joda76]

My final flex is in August. Oh well not a big deal as I will still want it then. lol
Looking forward to everyones pics though.

Is there any reason why this may NOT work with the Gantry?

Your username is definitely fitting on your other post. Kind of weird to quote clean's post then say it is not something you pay attention to and usually buy somewhere else.

Coming out of retirement for post #4 on that. Hehehe.
Not flamming, it's interesting to see what types of posts get folks to sign on and post.

I usually always go for EX, but I really couldn't careless about the small green thingie... I should have thought of it as paying a bit more to get the figure a month in advance.

Just saw this earlier at a lcs display. Just WOW!
Haters gonna hate, but man it's just huge and the head looks mighty fine!

God Damnit I want's me some Iron Man!

What you can do is request SS to move you final flexpayment date to June 25th. They will allow you to do that. Just had them change mine a little earlier.

 

[Takaboi]

It's finally coming!!

 

[Jeff12burq]

Alright, I wanted to let everyone who ordered first and chose to flexpay this figure know that they can have Sideshow change their final flexpay date to June 25th to have it shipped as soon as possible.
