God that looks absolutely terrible. Somehow worse than the Holographic Iron Man figure.

I see what they are going for here but I understand why no one likes it
Yeah, the plastic overlay on this figure looks terrible no matter what. Maybe if you get the right angle with the right lighting conditions it will look decent. But I'm not paying over $400 to fight and struggle to get a figure to look just decent on my display.

A high quality comic line would have completely revitalized Marvel Hot Toys for me but if they're all like this the line won't last long. Hopefully they learned a lesson with all the feedback for War Machine.

If past Hot Toys’ lines are any indication, if sales are subpar they don’t take it to heart that perhaps they missed the mark - they just drop the line entirely.

Well that is what makes the plastic parts so confusing. I am sure people will still buy it, but it seems the majority opinion is that the plastic is lame. They could have removed the plastic parts and sold much more here.

This is why we can't have nice things.

I see just as many complaints about the plastic on IG, so not everyone likes it.

Every post I see on it is just people sucking it off
Well, it looks awful... Good news for my wallet I guess. Wake me up if they make Extemis or Superior or Iron Doom and they're not covered in plastic. Seriously, it looks as if you took a figure from the plastic box but haven't removed all of the coverings yet. I genuinely don't know how they think. I really don't. I could've understood it somewhat if the whole figure was covered, but the exposed feet, hands, legs, arms and whatnot just make it look worse than badly designed, they make it look incomplete. Shame, this could've been a great figure...

It's so close to awesome. When I first saw it, I was like, "Rad! ...but what's that weird coating?" I guess it makes sense for a guy called IRON Man to be covered in translucent crystal. Maybe he plays a lot of Minecraft.

God that clear plastic looks so bad. It still blows my mind how they ruined such an awesome figure with one of their dumbest decisions ever.
D'oh!

What someone should've said to the Hot Toys guy who proposed covering this otherwise fine figure in plastic:

They look like the invisible effects ToyBiz used to put with Sue Storm figures back in the day.
