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

[Takaboi]

So has this guy been spotted in Hong Kong yet? Sorry haven't been keeping up with the thread. Hoping he'll be hitting the US soon.

The mark VII exclusive? Or regular?
Regular comes after all exclusives are shipped.

 

[fordjuse]

Sorry fordjuse but eBay is currently selling the exclusive one for $450-500...
Seems like the hype is going down

Those are start off bids. Not closed auctions. Even if hype is going down. Price will remain level at $550 before any type of shipping.

 

[fordjuse]

As my chinese friend told me when he said getting this figure from the Hot Toys in Hong Kong "You must be dreaming"...

Still I have hope I will close to try and find this at retail price, if not... My max is 750 total.

Your Hong Kong friend is very smart and knows real collecting trends.

He knows demand and limited release of this figure.

BTW, Your hope will get lost man. If $750 is your max for Exclusive version then you will get 1.

 

[DouglasMcc]

Got to love this guy. A real business man. Best of luck man. Your prices is sort of low. The Exclusive is more in range of $650-$750.



Far from the truth. Watch as people scramble and end up paying MORE than the his asking price. Then who will be crazy?




Spend $500 now spend $650 plus later?

Listen to him and you will spend more for sure.

Well guy we will see if you get at retail price.

I could see your logic IF the figure had already seen wide distribution. IT HASN'T. Ebay prices are always sky high when the figures first start to trickle out. However, when Sideshow and other US retailers receive theirs, there will be some more reasonably priced. Do I think they will be at the 250 retail? Nah. But I do not see the price going over 350 for the first week or 2. And, with all the whining about eye sockets, mask dimensions, elbows, etc. ... I am just not seeing the crazy prices right now. Many of these complainers will either A.) Cancel their pre-order or B.) put the figure on eBay. This will drive down prices from the 500 ish range.

P.S. I am referring to the regular version. I have no need for a "Gummy Iron Man" that would just collect dust.

 

[Takaboi]

I don't know if we're looking at the same eBay fordjuse but please take a look at the SOLD listings.
Btw the BD were sold for $550 too. What happened to that $750-$850 you mentioned 2 weeks ago?

What makes you think it won't continue to go down once Hot toys ships them out to the US and other countries?

 

[Mr.Tanker]

Ignore fordjuse. He's a cynical angry poster, and we have no idea what his problem is.

Demand is strong right now because the thing hasn't even shipped in most markets. The U.S. is about to be flooded with them. lots of people will be reselling them, and they will be competing with each other. The price will drop a bit.

And given the strong demand for this figure, I wouldn't rule out Hot Toys eventually shipping extra stock to Sideshow once they have filled the massive amount of pre-orders over the next month or so. Why leave money on the table with a figure this popular?

little off topic, but seems RDJ is back as Iron Man in Avengers 2 and 3, a contract has been agreed so no doubt more Iron man figures in the future likely

That's great news for the Avengers franchise!

 

[El-Vi-Riachi]

No mention of Iron Man 4 so perhaps that part of the franchise is done.

 

[Ropen]

I am hoping to see the Bleeding Edge Armor since the last sets he blew up were the Extremis I would think... Man a Hot Toys Bleeding Edge will drain the poor button cell batteries hahaha

Let's wait and see. batter have $550 plus ready guy.

When you quote me make sure you know how to guy. My post sated more in the range of $650-$750. Let's see once figure arrives.

BTW, Mine are confirmed for shipment about 5-24 or 5-25 Exclusive versions.

Mine is confirmed for shipment on 6-25 ( which is what I'm sure you meant to put ) also. And guess what.....I PAID USING FLEXPAY.

Hmmmmm....how does that fit into your "Flexpay is for poor people and they will not get this figure" logic?

 

[Henry Morgan*]

No mention of Iron Man 4 so perhaps that part of the franchise is done.

And he signed for Avengers 3.. he'll have a few years more on him when that movie arrives, it should be a goodbye to Iron Man, I think IM3 is a great ending for his solo movies

Yep, typo in typing. 6-24 or 6-25.

Sideshow should delete or remove flexpay option totally. Only exception will be as follws outlined below.

Fully paid orders ( not flexpay ) are filled first. What ever is left over is then filled for flexpay.

No wait list available for flexpay.

 

[LTM438]

Now, to the people being charged next week, you guys all have the exclusive on order, correct? I'm wondering when the regular will start shipping.

 

[Cyberseven]

I would like it if they didnt ship any out until they have enough in stock to fill all the preorders. That way everyone that preordered one gets them at the same time......

How does this idea sound.

If I had a dollar for every brain you dont have, I'd have 1 dollar
