MMS Diecast - Iron Man: 1/6th scale Mark III Collectible Figure

[LexiKon318]

I am really itchy to get this since my first payment for it just went through. I have 5 armors since I began collecting but all of them are from IM3 and the lack of a proper red-and-gold armor is glaring.

While I hope they fix the color on this, I can live with it if they don't.

If they rerelease armors 1-7 in die cast, this will give me the opportunity to get these guys. It would be a day 1 PO for me.

What is this "if" word you speak of?

maybe 'when' would be more appropriate

I think the Mark V is going to be hard to do in diecast, just because the armor is so thin

Yeah but thats one armor that really needs the diecast treatment. The plastic version is just meh, it has almost no shine.... same goes for the MK2

Awesome Ultron gif signature Brainiac.

Thanks Desamo....
I will probably go back to the Vision one in a few days I just like making new ones

Unless you mean the original Mark 2, the Mark 2 AU was the superior armor and super shiny so there's nothing diecast can improve on there.

Agreed ...unfortunately my Mk2 is sleeping in its box until this one releases...no space right now.

I don't think they'll go the maroon route...besides, as Stark said, its Hot Rod Red

Enough to make someone a cap one

I think if someone wants to own the maroon color they're gonna have to buy the old one, the red on this is the "iconic" look of Iron Man, and not screen accurate.

I'm excited for this. Don't really mind the colour. I'm more of a fan of the comic book character over the movie iterations and I find the Mark 3 resonates most with me. It reminds me of the comic book renditions.

I prefer the brighter red too. Same goes for that AoU Cap discussion. In those hospital pics of Evans the suit looks dark and dingy... Much prefer the brighter colors of the figure.

I really have no preference in the color...... I just want it lol

Cool with me. This figure looks sick. Debating whether or not it'll be the only main red-and-gold armor I'll need or if I go with Mark VI as well if they do that in diecast too.

The VI looks better if you ask me, but that's still an 'if'

On the topic of colors, here was a post I made a while back. Hot rod red can still be a darker shade:

Maybe Tony used a red hue from Mazda for the Mark III:

A cursory search for "hotrod red" came up with these:

A reference pic (not sure if movie accurate though)

Another reference pic from if I recall correctly, was from the promo materials for the movie:

I sure hope they go with the darker red. Apart from the suit's clean lines, it was what set it apart from all the HoA suits. I doubt they will though. The Mk III construction diorama didn't seem to go for the darker red.

 

[Brainiac]

Yeah I think its safe to say that the paint used on the Construct version will be used again for the full suit

Yup I just got the Construct version and it's the same red as the MKIV hence VI and VII. Can't see the full MKIII being different.
