Folks really shouldn't freak out about availability. This actually happened with the Mark VI figure, where it sold out before it was released due to hype. But the reality was that it was produced in massive numbers (probably 5-10,000), as this one will be, and as such, eBay was flooded with them and folks could get them near or slightly above retail for up to a year or so after release.

Same can be said for the T-1 Terminator and even red/blue Spider-Man, which is still available for a relative song.

Truth is that many are buying with the intention to flip, but that only works if they hold onto it long term (many won't).
 
I'm talking eastern standard time :D

I was assuming pics would be coming from people in HK. :lol
..and it always seemed like teasers came out Thursday our time.

Well in that case can you give me tonight's lottery numbers?

There can only be one winner. ;)



EDIT: Whoops, only the NECA VII came out on Thursday. :lol

Well, I for one wont be flipping mine. I normally only collect Star Wars but this guy got my attention so I'm getting into Marvel. I just wish It'd come out already!! This is the coolest version IMO.
 
I dunno guys. I think this figure is going to be a very hot seller. I'm expecting nothing short of perfection when the pics start dropping on this one.

I see 2 distinct collector types after this guy and a underswell of one off buyers.

2 main sources for sure will be:
1) Iron Man Completionists re tards (Like muhself)
2) Avenger Completionists, (May be the crazier of the 2 this time around:lol)

Given the marketing machine that is "Iron Man 3" just came out and the influx of new collectors, some people are going to just want to have a iron man figure and this one is just damn cool. Extremis hot!:)

This Mark VII is one of the better offerings with all of the battle damage pieces and just a great representation of a red and gold suit. It sat around for so long cause there has been so much crap between batman and avengers releasing in the last year and this slid pretty much under the radar. It sold out at sideshow and the other distributors dried up in a day or 2.

Don't wait to long to grab one or will definitely be paying the piper.

:exactly:

i have two regulars and an exclusive coming. if i don't land a BD Mark VII, i may use one of these to create my own battle damaged IM. :lol
 
I am most looking forward to that smirking hs. All the others have a determined or concerned look. That mark iv hs is long overdue for an update.
 
When did the regular sold out at sideshow? I just wait listed, do I still have a chance???
