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

That's what I thought,
I'm assuming he got his for $700 shipped
Hence explaining where the extra $300-$500 came from.

I haven't seen an Abomination PF for only $700 shipped in a long time. Someone got lucky!

Well maybe that's the one I said looks more like Dom Deluise

Probably. When those were the first images released I admit I hammered the crap out of them too!

The end product looks VASTLY improved and different, I have one as well. I have no clue why they don't update their website with the new & improved portriat but I'm guessing since all 500 sold out they don't care.

XM Mark 42.. :O

Looks good...

If you say so. I literally think that looks NOTHING like RDJ. I don't see how poeople think it does. HOT TOYS still has the best likeness I've seen, but that the worst IMO.

Oh LOL...ok

That's not it, is it?

Ok, post a good pic if you can. I'm interested to see it now. I'll say it's great if I think it is.

Here's comparison pics!!

I like SS version more for the detail/sculpt
Paint goes to XM

That's not it, is it?

If it is I'll say right off the lighting isn't helping there.

I wasn't even aware they did a RDJ, thought they only did comic statues.
That's why I have little interest in their work.

The pic Col posted on the bottom is recent, the top one should be burned with the witches.

I see Stark in the SS, RDJ in the other.

XM versions looks like RDJ to me...SSC one just looks like Stark with a subtle hint of RDJ. Paint is better on XM version. Pose on SSC is better. Both are pretty solid.

Agreed.

Ok, the newer pics look much better. I saw the top pic Col posted and was seriously questioning how you guys thought that looked like RDJ. their paint apps are better, but I still don't think it blows SS out of the water at all. I'd have to see both in person to make an honest call, but it's not as bad as that original stock photo I saw at all.

If i get a 20% off that works with mark 42, I might bite...

I'm desperate for some IM goodness after selling my MKVI.
Don't like this suit or movie so praying for a decent MKII

 

[Raikirik]

I can for sure see RDJ in that bottom pic. For SS portaits, I've always felt they have a 'loose' likeness to the actor but do make it look like the character.

Did you order the Mark II?

 

[Collectorcol]

Did you order the Mark II?

I've got one on hold with a local retailer. Won't order anything anymore until I see inhand pictures.
Just cancelled my Masked Hunter LSB
