I was talking with a friend ( Silent Bob ) about this recently and he's not had any major issues with his and he thinks it may be due to the fact that like me he lives in the UK which doesn't have a humid climate.

Many reports of the fading have been from people living in countries that do so maybe there's something in that....I guess we'll find out a few months after the Mark VII ships.

I'm in the UK and my MkIV has the frilliest Pinky Pants you ever did see!
However my MkIII & Mk V's are fine.... go figure.

The Lads.....

....and the BEAST!

Simply stunning.

Wicked pics!!


I got my replacement Monger today now with working light. I would post pic!

 

[Centurion]

Very cool!

How long was that turn around time?

 

[thecorsair]

Darthgothikus,
Nice pics!

Intresting to hear of your experience with the fading. Did you get those as new unsealed items when they were first released?

Even the mighty Devastator looks less imposing with Iron Monger around,

Are you talking about the one in NY or UK?

 

[vodoun]

UK. Had it on order for over a year, but it was in stock yesterday for several hours then marked as sold out. The order is still pending.

Well they just got Hawkeye in so I guess a few months yet for Monger.

That and it will be nearly double the price.

This.
They're a popular place and I think they try and catch those at their store who walk-in and twitch buy.

 

[vodoun]

Interesting.

Popular with folks who are ok with extortionate prices more like.

I don't like how FP do business. £580 for Enterbay Joker??? Somebody at head office has a severe mercenary streak.

Anyways!! Much to my delight, I now have a fully functional Monger and as such I feel much better now.

 

[ebor]

^^^ Awesome news Eamon! really sucks to have a non-functioning light on any Iron Man related figure, but especially one as imposing as the Monger!

 

[Eamon]

Thanks!! Though it did cost me £48 to ship it back which sucked but Monger is too cool like you said!

Indeed.
Like I said, the "twitch" buyer, who walks into a store, sees something appealing, and drops all that coin when it could have been purchased for much less online... and it has nothing to do with knowledge. I've seen some friends who know it's cheaper online, but must have the figure now.

I have been that "Twitcher"
