MMS164 - Iron Man: Iron Monger Limited Edition Collectible Figure

[mao86]

The body is an old BBI body that I padded up a bit to make him look a little heavier set, the neck and hands are HT AdvTT, the suit is from Playhouse, the shoes are Triad toys.

Thanks. That Obadiah looks great.

This thing is so bad ass!

This was probably discussed at length, but how in the hell does stane walk in that thing? Where do his legs go? Yeah movie magic, guy in huge robot suit, suspension of belief blah blah...but still...how?

Ive been wondering that since I saw the movie.

Ive been wondering that since I saw the movie.

You'd think with the way his legs are positioned in the suit, his legs would be crushed...or he wouldn't be able to move at all.

Mine came today, long wait but worth it.

I thought I recognized that pose:

Very nice pics, bro, and I love what you did with OS figure.

Leave your brains at the door and you'll enjoy the movie more.

Now, where did I leave mine....

Outstanding, thanks brother!!!

Stane looks good; I've been thinking for a long time about producing a 1:6th scale two-wheel Segway for myself and possibly others, to pose their custom Obi Stane figures in a riding position. (Cigar included)
By the way- check out my custom Raza figure from the first IM film here: https://sideshowcollectors.com/forums/showthread.php?t=96818

I thought the same thing, too. One could think maybe Obadiah has prosthetic legs and takes them off when he's inside Iron Monger.

In the movie it seems like there's enough room for his feet to rest just above the knees, for the figure he would have to be an amputee.

I did this in Photoshop, because I've thought about this issue too. Even with the HT Monger slightly underscaled as it is, it seems possible that Obi could fit inside without having crushed legs. The suit would just have to be designed with empty space inside for the legs obviously, and the power structure surrounding the hollows.
Even at the points where the human and Monger knee joints don't overlap, I think the human legs would just move inside the joint space without damage. Presumably the Monger legs would have built-in restrictions on how far they can bend, to avoid injury. I know I'm DEEP into nerd territory here, but it helps me suspend disbelief and enjoy the fantasy.

This image is deeply disturbing.

He seems a little too small and too high up in relation to his actual placement inside Monger.

I still love your devotion to the cause Andrew! You're the man

Batman fires EMP gun.

Nice.

Although I see no reason why he isn't just sitting down in there. Plenty of room for a seat or even sitting cross legged on the 'floor.' There is no reason to think Monger was controlled by him moving his arms and legs. Probably more like a video game controller or remote control car - except he was just in it.

I picked the suit up off of ebay about a year ago. Here's a few more pics.
