Premium Format Iron Man Mark 42 1/4 Maquette by Sideshow Collectibles & Legacy Effects

[Y4NK33 PL4N3T]

Looking forward to seeing pics of this one. Iron Patriot came out like a hot mess but hopefully this isn't too bad. The life size came out pretty good so hopefully all is good here.

Ahh.... The grass is always greener...... I hope you are right.. The sculpts are not the problem they're great It's the factories in China...

I'm thinking..... Preordering is not for me any more especially with these statues( along with a NRD ) I had to cancel my IP because of .... Wait for it.... Issues .....again

Just hoping for the best guys. Sideshow really has screwed you Iron Man fans over.

I stopped pre-ordering as well. Thing is i just read that so long as you view them all from "normal viewing distance" ie around 10ft while sitting in your chair, you are good to go. Don't get close to them (get someone else to unpack the statue for you) or you're doing it wrong. With that info i've just gone and ordered a crap load of statues.

They still release some great stuff it's just a shame when something like IP get's shipped. I always like the statues they make it's just a lot of time the paint kills it. So yes it's times like this that a message has to be sent to them.

Yeah in all fairness , they do make great stuff.I have the Deluxe Vader, which I think they nailed. Their GI Joe line , which I have several are still cool .Luv R2D2 Their Hulk Maquette along with Legacy is my grail piece ! I have the Mk VI LSB...it also has issues, but overall great piece.... I could go on.... Spent a lot of money with Sideshow because we all want them to succeed When these QC issues come up it's really disappointing

I kid i kid! I hope this does turn out really nice. Hell, I would consider nabbing one if the paints turn out better than what was show at SDCC

Seen it in real at Thailand comic con, same quality as iron patriot. Quality similar as iron studio mk 42, but I feel color is correct whereby iron studio One is wrong

Though still not perfect, those paint apps look much, much better than what we've seen on the majority of IP's.

 

[user 51786]

I would say they are ok
We can still hope for a good mark III

 

[ambasah]

well, it's not as bad as IP...

 

[Y4NK33 PL4N3T]

Looks okay, would expect a crisper paint app if that's a prototype. Still, it is miles better than Ip.
