12" Diecast Iron Man Mk VII

[joebizz34]

from here the proportions look pretty damn perfect compared to the smaller head on the Hot Toys version. It's the only thing keeping me from getting the HT.

I think it looks so tiny on all the proto pics ie

I thought they used the same 3D model from the movie.

If Hot Toys can fix the helmet proportions, I'd be more than happy to get that but for now, the Play Imaginative version is winning me over.

Why is his upper legs silver in one pic and gold in another? Which one is correct? I saw Avengers twice and honestly don't recall at the moment.

Silver with the missile pods on. Once he jettisons them, it's gold underneath. So it's correct either way.

Ah ok thanks. I have to go back and watch the movie again. I didn't notice that but any excuse to watch it again I'm up for.

Spoiler:

The scene where Iron Man fly's into the Leviathan's mouth, then you see the creature explode from the inside... that's where IM uses the thigh rockets.

Is this a picture of the Playimaginative metallic version?

Thanks guy.

I went a few pages back and found this post by Lawrence:

Better quality pics, without the tags

Show me working LED's in the eyes, hands, feet, a scale comparison to other 1/6 figures, & poseability, & I think I'm pretty much going to go for this over the HT one. I'm still unsure which one looks better, but I have a feeling this will "feel" more impressive 'in hand'. It's also not bad in the looks department.

I'm liking the proportions on this version better than the Hot Toys figure.

Same here dude, which is exactly why I might get this over Hot Toys' version. Unfortunately, the little head/helmet, especially on the Mark VII is bugging the hell out of me, especially since the Mark VII has a way bulkier body, making the head look smaller than it should. Hot Toys should take into consideration that an actual head should be able to fit into the helmet. Other than that, If they fix the gold parts on the torso and the silver quadricep pad to show that little slit of the gold pad underneath, then I would be COMPLETELY sold on buying this.

Cool thanks!!

The store I sometimes purchase from in OZ has these listed at $399. They usually charge around $50+ on US prices so I think this will probably cost around $320 - $350.

They also have the ETA as November but I think that's probably wrong.

Cool thanks!!

I've watched it a ridiculous number of times once the blu ray hit the stores... and I know I'm not alone.

Where or who is selling this in the US? I could only find Japan...

I am very interested in this...just picked up the exclusive version of the super alloy Jim Lee batman at NY Comic Con ($275.00 plus tax total was $300.00) and this would go very well with that piece.

to the forums.

What is the build quality like on that Jim Lee Batman?
Does the weight of the figure prevent it from holding certain positions?

 

[Dutch]

Definitely interested in this figure. The proportions look better than hot toys.

Hopefully the production figure turns out good.

 

[guy66657]

any updates on this fig?

 

[Centurion]

I'm still interested in this piece too.

I think it's worth the extra price if it's full metal. The Iron Man figure always felt really cheap to me. I bought one but had to sell it off.
