1/6 Hot Toys Avengers: Endgame - Iron Man

You would have complained wither way.

Nah...I actually haven't complained about the whole clean/dirty Mk 85 ordeal specifically...but I do always call out HT for their scheisty tactics.

Amazing.

I have both clean and BD figures on preorder. Even though BD version is also amazing and iconic, I love this armor design so much that I need the clean version too so I can display it in all its glory, not kneeling and full of battle damaged parts that cover much of its beauty.

Despite being expensive, I think that displaying both is the perfect option.

Think I may have decided I don?t need this armour... and that just the Mk7 may suffice...

It may hinge on what Endgame Thor looks like and if I then choose to go for the trinity set instead of what is otherwise one figure per character.

 

[gmoney5000]

Wow...that just looks amazing! Glad I have the clean and dirty on pre-order. Can't wait to own both!

Looks awfully pinheaded. Moreso than before. But still need to account for distortion and all that.

 

[davejames]

The head size looks fine to me, but those shoulders are definitely waaaay too broad. Unfortunately I really doubt it'll get corrected for the final figure.

 

[IronManConnoiseur]

I personally can?t understand any of the proportion debates with this figure, looks great to me. The shoulder?s appeared to ?hug? the upper arms on the actual suit, but that?s only because they were nanotech and all one form-fitting piece, whereas this is a separate shoulder piece.

Looks great! Thanks for sharing the pics!

Spoiler:

eh, it has the same thigh gap as the mark L?
but still... very gorgeus

 

[DarthAlias]

What is with HT in the thigh gaps? The MK V super engineered yet they can’t get the thighs right on these later Marks?

Hmm, for whatever reason the thigh gap on this figure is more acceptable to me than the Mark 50...I guess I'm weird like that.

it's the curvature of the outer thigh armor. the Mk 45, 46 and this one is shaped/curved back inwards helping create a more seamless look. the Mk 50 is just straight up kinky boots, jagged with an abrupt cut and the inner thigh joint (for leg twisting) being too skinny compared to previous ones made it worse... idk why HT does one armor great and then innovate but step backwards at the same time.

 

[IronManConnoiseur]

Every Iron Man has had thigh gaps, but they always follow the pattern of the waist to make them as minimal as possible. Except the Mark 50, which is just straight lines. The 85 looks fine.

It?s because they can?t do what they did with the Mark 46, with that seamless looking pattern. Because the actual model for the 50 is just literally seamless legs connected to a torso, Hot Toys isn?t going to ?make up,? so to speak, a new pattern for them, unlike the 46 whose model did them a favor as it inherently fits with the ?high at top of thighs and butt, low at side of thighs? pattern. So they had to go with a straight cut for the 50, still shouldn?t have been as large though.

Jesus that is probably impossible to read with all the question marks, whatever.

Plus the gaps hug the rest of the legs much tighter than the 50.

my gripe is that the 85 is also the nano seamless design and they were able to reduce the thigh gap issue and look much better and smoother

You gotta keep in mind that HT rushed the Mark 50...I'm sure if they had more time with it they could have done a better job.
