Anyone have any updates on this figure? I'm sure they should be working on this since the Jim Lee batman is out now. Has this fig appeared at any recent conventions?

Funnily enough I was thinking "have nt heard anything about this figure in ages" myself yesterday so I did a little digging around.On Facebook they replied to someone on December 30th saying they were close to production.

I'm not sure what my thoughts are on getting this one.
On one side, the nicer proportions and the heavy die-cast content is by far a major plus: when I opened my first HT IM (Avengers Mk.VI), I was surprised on how light and plastic-y it felt.
On the flipside, I already have the Mk.I ver2, Mk.II AU, Mk.IV Gantry, Mk.V, Mk.VI Avengers, and War Machine all from Hot Toys, and it'd feel really out of place if my Mk.VII was from a different company, especially seeing as how the ONLY 1/6 figures I buy are Ironmen..

Heres some info I just read:

The initial lineup will be developed based on the Iron Man movies, with a focus on the upcoming movie Marvel's Iron Man 3 movie (premiering in 2013).

So this Iron Man prototype we've been looking at all this time is either in 1/4 or 1/12 scale? Also what is the Mark 42? What happened with 8 through 41?

Storage. Tony has suits hidden all over, each one designed for a specific purpose, close calls with death will make you paranoid.

Great question.
The Mk.VII wasn't mentioned in that update. But it did say that the focus would be IM3.
I did like that they would be doing 1/4 scale.

Indeed.
I at least wanted to see in-hand pics to gauge qaulity and even, potentially, ditch the Hot Toys version in favor of this.

just on their facebook page and found this reply "Hello! we will be working in 1/4 and 1/12 scale for die-cast Iron Man, but we have ONE 1/6 die-cast Iron Man figure. Waiting for some approvals in order to make the announcement, which we are hoping will be reeeeally soon!" so it seems mkvii is still on

1/4 scale die cast Iron Man... wow! 
Just as a reference. Their Super Alloy Batman cost around $270 dollars and weights 1kg.

Thats good!!I ll be gutted if they drop that even though the Hot Toys version is just around the corner.There was something about that figure that really appealed to me.
