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

[BatBrain]

Man, I'm pretty bummed that this wasn't shown in the new upcoming releases pic. I would have surely thought this would come out before AOU Cap. I'm just ready to see some new photos!

Maybe they are fixing the ab articulation?

 

[XxStrait-EdgexX]

If they ad ab crunch to this fig I'd buy it before the 43 but I can't imagine they'd do it.

 

[YankeesFanboy]

Yeah, that's exactly what HT is doing.

 

[Motuxmen]

The 43 is a repaint. The mark 3 is a new figure. That's why one is quicker.

As for the ab thing. I really don't see anything changing. The first one didn't have it. Wasn't a big issue. They would need a complete redesign. For such a small change. Financially I don't see it worth it.

 

[SurlyJ]

What is wrong with the diecast ab articulation?

 

[YankeesFanboy]

As far as we can tell, it's nonexistent. I lost the exclusive and there's a lot of stuff dropping over the next several months, so I'm going to wait and see, anyway.

 

[Hologram AI]

I have a feeling they'll add it. The figure is super simple and they've always added the latest articulation when releasing a new Iron Man figure. Even StarBoost got an impressive range in articulation in the arms when it was released compared to it's proto.

What is wrong with the diecast ab articulation?

The fact that this figure doesn't have it.

 

[swiftwilly]

bit confused, what waitlist? it is available on website...

 

[YankeesFanboy]

The exclusive?

 

[SurlyJ]

No one has the figure in hand... we don't know what articulation it has. Unless I missed something.

 

[Motuxmen]

I don't see them adding anything more. With starboost, it had exactly what the description stated it would. They don't always add every new feature to every new figure. Starboost has an ab art that the 42 and 43 don't. That most the others don't in fact. The mk3 has the removable plates. That's the feature/gimmick they advertised and promoted. You could not due the full ab art with those on, so like I said it would take a full redesign. Why would they go thru all that after selling it as it was/is? There may be some ab art we don't know see because we have not seen the full production release. But to count/bet/hope on them to add something you do not think is on the proto, that they have not put in the description...it's not really a good bet. Once that figure goes up for order they are not doing any major design changes. Minor, ones all the time. Tweaks due to production issues or what not. But a full on revamp of what was touted as a key feature? Not likely.

Exclusive just converted, glad I don't have to wait until release.

Um wut?

He said he had a feeling HT would include the ab articulation, that was it.

 

[Brainiac]

Yeah but with Holo and Motux lurking around he was asking for it

 

[swiftwilly]

The exclusive?

Just an extra arc reactor isn't it

 

[Brainiac]

Just an extra arc reactor isn't it

Yes its the 'Proof Tony Stark has a heart' case.

 

[mynameschris]

I am still hoping that movie logo is an included decal instead of it being already applied or a paint app.

Yeah its not accurate, but maybe its not supposed to be

 

[mynameschris]

Probably not, but I want it to be! Still considering the IM3 accessories set which would look at home there (even better if I could get a hold of the one from the IM2 element creation figure) but the label takes away from the diorama in a way a figure stand baseplate doesn't!
