Hot Toys-MS 110- IRON MAN-MARK III (Battle Damaged) spec + pics

[vodoun]

Any idea when Sideshow will likely start charging and get in the exclusives?...

March 2010.

Yes, that's the obvious answer, but since this thing has only been released about 4 days ago in HK, I don't think Sideshow will have theirs for a few weeks.

SS is usually 1 to 2 months out from HT releases.

And that is why I pre-ordered from Toys2...

I just saw this posted by SpawnFan in the Michael Jackson DX03 'BAD' thread of the HT offices:

Hmm it did not look like that when I saw it last year.

Ignore the Michael Jackson pics, but concentrate on the lower right corner of the photo. It shows the 1/10 scale Iron Man figure from Hyper Gokin.

Brings the question: did Hot Toys use the 1/10 Iron Man toy as direct reference? Kinda neat.

Pretty good choice, you should be interested about some of the gimmicks that they have.

Geez, look at the extent of which this guy over on Toy World modified his Iron Man BD:

The rest of the pics here (and lots of them, step-by-step): https://toy-world.com.hk/forum/viewthread.php?tid=23036&extra=page=1&page=1

That's uh...taking a bit too far, in my opinion.

that looks freaking sweet to me ahah the figure straight out the box looks like a toy to me

I don't think it does. Isn't that 1/10th figure only 95% completed? More likely that Hot Toys is studying the competition to see how they do it and what they can or could've done to improve their own.

btw I ony had the IM M2 for a night but I was I wrong to remember that the neck did not move at all but IM BD does

Thats good then, as I'm in no rush for it. Need a break between spending.

That photograph above with Micheal Jackson is one of the most fascinating i ve seen on this board,it s great to get a hint into the thought processes that go on in a successful company and shows just how much thought and work goes on with these things-only for us to pick it all apart at the end!!

How much greater the original Mark 3 figure would have been though with countermeasures and shoulder-mounted guns.Shame.

I canceled my IM BD Exclusive with SS because after seeing the pics I didn't want the crushed helmet. For those in the states, where are you guys ordering your IM BD? Any good deals out there?

Every new pic makes me happy I went ahead and ordered this...

Hi, has anyone pre-ordered the BD Ironman from Cornerstore Comics? Their price for the Exclusive version (with the crushed helmet) seems very reasonable and they have their stock in Feb. So, what's the catch? Thanks

 

[c3r1h5]

^ I've ordered from cornerstore comics before with no problems. They did have some credit cards accounts hacked i think over a year ago, but everything is fine now (have the dx02 pre-ordered with them).

I don't see the crushed helmet available with them. I believe only sideshow can carry the ex in the US. I could be wrong.

 

[SHIN AKUMA]

Thanks for the quick reply, c3r1h5. In the Cornerstore comics listing/description for the BD Ironman, they said the crushed helmet is also included. Does anyone know if they are carrying the exclusive version or just the normal version? Thanks.

 

[creecher]

I think you're reading it wrong SHIN. It says "Damaged helmet as accessory." The crushed helmet is different to the damaged one. The damaged one has the scratches and the crushed helmet is a crumpled blob.

 

[OSCORP]

Yup reading it wrong. NOT the ex.

 

[Hydeous]

Im gonna check it out tomorrow in hand, my friend just got back from HK

 

[SHIN AKUMA]

Thanks guys. I must have read it wrong, I thought it said crushed helmet as accessory. But their price on the BD Ironman is not too bad at all.
