I like the setup you've got going. May I ask, is that a Billy Bookcase on the right?

On strong impulse, I put in a PO for the die cast Mark 43 and picked up Igor when he showed up in stock at a local retailer. I've had some HT figures in the past, but they've never "stuck" with me and have been the first things to go when other hobbies demand cash and attention. You can consider my opinion to be one of a "new" collector, and take it for what you will.

The good

Igor is impressively huge as shown by the photos in this thread. On sheer size alone, he has a strong shelf presence and will command attention.

He looks fantastic and seems pretty spot on to his limited screen time. Despite apparent gripes about weathering on the prototype vs production version, I like the paint apps and what is there is solid, although I do wish the weathering were shiny metallic (as if the paint had be scratched) as opposed to black which can be more difficult to see.

For the size of the figure, I'd say the articulation of the various parts is very good. I love the hands in particular, having each finger articulated is awesome, even if the "clenched fist" isn't quite perfect.

The not so good

Perhaps my expectations were too high, but for me the feel of the figure in hand does not align with how it looks. Again my opinion, but he feels a little cheap and plasticky especially in the lower leg area. I understand the necessity of having things loose and able to move for posing but knowing doesn't change the feel. The area around the feet feels extremely fragile and I'm worried about things falling off.

All the articulation in the world is for naught if the figure cannot hold the pose on it's own, and I struggled mightily to get him standing in a pose I liked. He is very top heavy and I found things needed to be just so or else he'd want to topple forward unless supported by something. I had very little luck attempting to mimic poses from the HT promo shots or pics from plastic enemies, but maybe they are using supports that aren't shown. On my Igor the ability of the right shoulder to support the weight of the arm in a raised position is tenuous at best. The slightest nudge would send the arm sliding back down into a neutral position. Maybe I just need to apply some future floor polish at the joint and the feet to solidify that.

The light up features (while cool) are so cumbersome to use that I'm not sure why they've bothered to include them. Having to remove panels to turn them on is asinine to the extreme. I get it, many collectors don't use them at all, and don't want visible switches marring the look of the fig. OK, then lets have them all at least a little more accessible, such as beneath the easily removable MAGNETIZED panel on Igor's chest. Getting to the head switch isn't too bad, but getting to the hand switches is just plain awful to the point of futility. If it absolutely HAD to be where they've put it, at least place the switch on the "chest side" so you're not digging under the wrist guard to get at it (owners will understand what I'm saying) or have to remove the hand entirely to turn it on. I don't know if this is some impossible innovation or what, but is having a remote to control the light up features too much to ask?

And finally

I'm happy with the purchase, but as with most things, it's not without issues.

Almost all the iron man figures have hidden light switches in their head and chest/back.

Thanks ! Awesome pics!

I thought igor was huge. Now since I see that hulk is bigger, I can't imagine how big the hulk buster will be!

 

[ksteezy]

Igor IS bigger than Hulk, I'm positive the angle those photos was shot at and the crouch on Igors stand gives the impression of Hulk being taller...I'm uploading some pics myself...depending on how hunched forward either figure is, one may look taller than the other, both fully extended, Igor is taller
