NECA: 1/4 Marvel Figures

Re: NECA: 1/4 The Avengers

Been plating around with mine for a few days now. I hope with a future installment they replace the current joint on the hips, ankles and shoulders with balljoints like HT. The ratchet kind they have now severely restricts the fine tuning of posing the figure.

The good thing about ordering here is its straight from the source....if there are QC issues they will likely oblige.

Took some pics of the Mark VII. Cool looking figure and big. But articulation sucks. Some paint flaws but overall it it what it is for a $100 1/4 scale figure. Highly recommend a stand as this thing is heavy and not too stable.

Yes it is the 9.5" model. Pricing is similar at Michael's. Don't remember exactly pricing.

Re: NECA: 1/4 The Avengers

Ok thanks. Was going to buy one that fitted 16-20inches. Guess that would have been too big..

How is the stand by the way? Sturdy to how up iron man?

I would not get the 16-20" tall ones, as that will be way too tall. Note the 9.5" is the actually height of the stand themselves. You figure the MK VII is about 18" tall, so the 9.5" fits perfectly at waist height. The 16-20" will be almost as tall if not taller than the figure.

The stand is great. I used them for all my NECA preds. They started taking dives off my shelf. Very inexpensive way to fix the issue. I highly recommend getting these.

Re: NECA: 1/4 The Avengers

My Iron Man arrived this morning from Drake. Great figure.

One thing I haven't seen in the reviews is that the figure has six flaps on his back, the videos show only the four main ones.

What shiny metallic paint can be used for touch ups.

if you're touching up the red parts, that would be a little hard coz you gotta mix up mettalic red and a lit bit of black, since its kinda darker shade. For the gold parts, try the Tamiya Gold Leaf, should be available on hobby shops. Check it first if its gonna match the factory colors before u apply them.

Re: NECA: 1/4 The Avengers

Hey jye for metallic touch-up i would use Testor(Model Master)Enamel Metallic paints.GOOD LUCK BRO!^_^

Re: NECA: 1/4 The Avengers

Acrylic?

The Tamiya is acrylic, if u can find some metallic paints for the red parts that would be great. Enamels are a bit thicker than Acrylics and mostly hard to apply unless you use an airbrush, in this case its a touch up so I would recommend Acrylics. Although there are Model Master Acrylics you can get and some are metallics.
