Hot Toys - MMS168 - Iron Man: 1/6th scale Mark I (2.0)

[xenom0rph]

A problem that occured with version 1.... occurs with version2 too...

As shown HT uses a spring which is rather flimsy and very prone to deformation/stretching ... due to the rather thin wire used. There's almost no going back from an overstretched spring, I attempted to correct a slightly deformed position only made it worst as shown with the top pic. As indicated in red I did a replacement with a smaller diameter spring (2mm as opposed to 2.25mm) but made of thicker wire thus has a higher resistance to deformation.

Just a caution to future owners... and a way to solve it should it occur to you.

Yuuup, noticed this on mine as well. See the vid of mine where I show the little tubes. Thanks for the hint, maybe I try it out when I find some springs in a hobby store or so.

I like how you display them.
Much better than the hall of armor with opaque walls.

What is this all about?? $999.00 for a broken MK I?

I like the description, guess he must've been drunk when he listed this

"hi ... i am a crazy toy maker ... i really like to build up toys ... after i destroy it and than i rebuild it ... here is my mark I ... i take off all the cloths and than later i will use a dark body to fixed up all the parts ... than will be more like a display Mark I ... cause no tonny star can stand in the display case ... haha"

It looks like the head on the Mark V isn't on all the way.

I just got an e-mail from Sideshow saying they're going to start charging for him on September 10th.
Did any one else get this?
