Literally. Just had to order from SS due to that Exclusive Battle Damaged Helmet.

It literally came out at Secret Base yesterday... I doubt Sideshow will be shipping any out this week.

In fairness to Sideshow, they do have to wait for it to physically arrive in massive shipping containers on a transpacific boat from Hong Kong which then has to be unpacked and processed at port before they can receive it for shipping. This is a process that can take months. Secret Base does not, and chooses to release their's immediately. Likewise, asian resellers do not have to pay for those transatlantic shipping containers, port costs, and import fees etc. etc. etc. It's not just Hot Toys mate, most goods from Hong Kong, can be bought more quickly and less expensively in Hong Kong as opposed to the time and cost it takes to get it in the US or elsewhere.
Wow, that comparison says it all. Only took them four tries to get it right, lol.
Hard to believe that Mark 3 - OG Diecast was 41 releases ago (D07 - D48). Yikes.

Beat me to it! I bet there’s not a lot of people that could take that photo with all four releases. I used to own the original two but sold them so long ago.
These are worth a share too I think for anyone who missed them in the blogger photo collection.

More in-hand photos. Looks great but with the scale of the Tony head...his feet would end like where the knees of the suit are 
I find that the Tony heads/faces with any given Iron Man suit are only good for closeups (of the face) - dezoom for the full figure and you can see he'd be completely stretched.

They may have improved in the last year but it used to be 1-3 months after Asia release. I know there are exceptions though.

I could imagine lebron james maybe getting into a 1/1 scale version but RDJ is a bit harder to imagine. Still a cool figure anyway.

This is getting very hard to resist.
Yes it is brother. And this is going to be my very first IM figure. Now just need Diecast Mark 7 and 46 and I'm done with him.
Is there something in particular that needs redoing about the previous Diecast Mark VII? I can understand why this Mark III diecast 2.0 was needed because the last one was undersized compared to all the others.
HT have a fetish for IM and recently, the 2.0s. Well jokes apart, a lot of new collectors like me missed out on him so we want him as well as a proper Mark 46

That's what I said earlier. Really wish Threezero step into making 1/6 Iron Man figures as well.
This is their recently released 1/12 scale diecast Mark 7.

No, there isn't. It was available for purchase from sideshow just over 2 years ago. It includes swap out battle damaged parts, conversion to the "sled" mode....can't see the need for a 2.0 release for it for sometime if ever
