1/6 Hot Toys - MMS400 D18 - Iron Man 2 - Mark V Diecast Figure

[Motuxmen]

Maybe, not sure from that video it doesn’t look that much bigger to me. It’s wider which is a good thing. The reds are definitely different. I’m not saying I’m going to do it just wondering if it would be an easy swap.

It’s bigger.

That silver paint app is amazing! That's the selling point for me, even though I hate the RDJ headsculpt with a passion. They should have revamped it to be screen accurate!!!

Thanks for the reply. I’m hoping to do a couple dynamic poses in the air. I have 5 diecast IM figures. Budget Stark said the Hot Toys dynamic stands eventually break with the weight of a diecast figure and these diorama stands take up half a shelf...am I out of luck!?

 

[Motuxmen]

None of my dynamic stands have broken.

I don't know why this is my favorite IM suit, so this is the only one I PO'ed.

It is a really awesome suit.

Unique...a lot of intricate detail...silver and red.

It’s a great looking figure and now that it’s diecast with the correct silver (and red), it will look better than the Silver Centurion. At least In my opinion.

I totally understand the love for a silver and red armor. For HT, at least for now, the only 2 that fit that bill are the SC and Mk. V. Some may argue that the SMHC Mk. XLVII fits in that category (and it kinda does) but it has a gold faceplate and some gold highlights throughout. Also, the Mk. XLVII’s silver is muted and isn’t really mixed in with the red like Mk. V and SC.

I’d love a diecast Silver Centurion but that will never happen. And even with 15 HPP armors left, only Tiger, Mk. XIX, has a (mostly) silver and red color scheme.

Doesn’t need to be diecast to have the right color.

Well it’s all about the size of the peg at the bottom of the necks on both figures. There’s no way you can swap helmets because the OG Mk. V uses that old lame big bulb that’s part of the neck. Whereas the new diecast Mk. V has the batteries and lights in the actual helmet.

Still, there’s a possibility of swapping the entire helmet and neck of each figure if the ball peg at the bottom of the necks are the same size. Of course, almost anything can be done with modifications, but I’m simply talking about stock to stock swapping.

Totally agreed but SC’s silver is a bit too dark for my tastes.

 

[Motuxmen]

Yeah I can see that. I would prefer a mirror or chrome finish for most of the silver on the suits, personally. But I can see why they don’t do that often. It’s more expensive paint and it wears a lot harder.

Not to mention leaves smudges and fingerprints.

So several years ago I got the the Mark 4 and Mark 6 when they originally came out, but didn't get the chance to get the Mark 5 for whatever reason. But I'm glad I waited for this version because I think it's fantastic!

Took some pics and did a brief video review on it.
