Great pics and I agree with your points
Really pleased you are happy with it
Hey buddy, thanks for the kind words
Yea, totally loving this MK42...finally i'm after going through statue after statue, i'm finally at piece with the MK42
Hey Satosh, thanks for the kind words buddy, although most of the work was done my Iphone 6 Plus
Yea, i think if you do decide to get this then you' be happy with it...however, here's my advice. I think the Sideshow MK42 Maquette is at it's most effective when posed with the Iron Patriot Maquette and so i'd probably hold out for one of the other Iron Man Maquettes to be released in the future....those of course are the MKII, III, V and the MKVII. The upcoming MKII is gonna be massive but i still can't get my head round on the pose
I love the iron studios/ssc comiquette pose though to.
totally agree...its definately my favourite of the three
I was looking at the proto base yesterday because i had the same thought when i saw Laudel's pic. Other than that though he's looking good so congrats guys.
Yea, it's pretty bland mate. Gonna get the base shipped out next week for some extra added detail i think. Was also surprised at just how light the base was...
That actually looks good. Over all though, I like this and that ring of lights on the base really sets it off...
Hey Matt, thanks for the kind words buddy
Possible purchase or just waiting for the War Machine Variant?
Congratulations on the paint coming out well. Like I said before, I've got the MKII POed, & was pretty worried about the paint application after lurking on the forums for awhile. I don't think it will be perfect, but I love the Prototype, anything 85-90% close to that and I'll be happy.
If anyone can explain that, or send me a link I'd appreciate it.
Something interesting I just noticed looking at the new pics... I never liked this pose (no offence - I know most people hate the MKII pose) because it wasn't apparent what action IM is doing. Is he running? Readying a repulsor blast? Or mid-uppercut? Again, glad things came out well with the paint application.
Thanks my friend
It's funny cos the way you feel about the MK42 in regards to 'what the heck is the pose about?' is exactly how i feel about the MKII Maquette
Who knows what sideshow was thinking
In an ideal world i'd have loved for the MK42 and Iron Patriot Maquettes to have had the same bases (like we got for the MKVI and War Machine Maquettes a few years ago) would've made more sense. The MKII is just a mystery to me....but i still have it on PO!
Great pictures, I love it! And I agree totally
Thanks my friend
Great repaint Andy!
you funny guy Eric
Good pics and breakdown on your thoughts for all the Mk 42 pieces you had/have.
Do you have the bust as well? I would like to see that and thr maquette together. The 42 and IP displayed together with their respective busts would look great I think.
Hey my friend, thank you for your kind words
Unfortunately, i cancelled my pre order with Sideshow for the MK42 Lifesize bust...i just think the prices for the busts have become rediculous since the release of their Iron Patriot bust (which was appalling in my opinion and totally overpriced at $1000) I've now sold a number of my Iron Man busts and only have the MKIII and my custom MKVII busts left in my collection which are two of my favourites although it was very difficult selling my War Machine Bust as that one was one of the best
Damn. Now I am tempted to pick this up.
It'sa very cool piece buddy...i can certainly recommend it
I love the ring of LEDs around the base. Where did you get those?
Thanks my friend
They are called LED ropes and are easily found on ebay
and I sold him my comiquette to
