Hard to pick my favourite between the III and the VI now. The paint is pretty much perfect in my opinion. Sideshow nailed this one.The lights are also the brightest I've seen on a SS Iron Man statue.

Pardon the phone pics! I need to take the real camera out for this one!

Wow they absolutely nailed this one. Diamond in the rough! Impressive light up features and paint work.

Holy crap Raikirik that looks great!! I usually hate light up features but it absolutely sells this piece for sure.

I only collect X-Men as of late but I've wanted an Iron Man for years and this one fits the bill almost perfectly. I also would have it in a dark room where I game so the light up feature would actually work out quite well. DAMMIT SIDESHOW.

Edit: Welp

I just went to buy this on popculcha and it’s sold out, hopefully they will get more in, it has a high ES number.

Great shots my friend. I have watched some youtube videos on this piece and man its tempting to get this. It looks fantastic. Near perfect. Congrats again.

The part that sticks out to me aside from the great pose and paint is how good the light up feature looks even in bright rooms. I just watched a few videos of the MKVII at SDCC 2019 and he still looks amazing even in that greatly lit room. Legacy Effects did a helluva job there.

Did this statue come with a way to change the light ? Because without the light on the statue is still cool but that light makes this piece.

Doesn't seem to be. This is a terrific looking piece, especially when lit up. But I have resisted purchase because the red paint looks off and the fear of light failure. Sideshow does not have a great track record with light up function holding up in the long haul. All that said I'm still considering buying this.

I doubt it but I really like the look either way. I wouldn't recommend keeping the light on 24/7 obviously. LED's last a long time so I would say by the time you're tired of this statue and move on from it *cough* eBay *cough* the light will most likely still be working unless you get a defective piece.

One of the biggest problems with the older IM statues was the paint and so far from everything I've seen in this thread, on StatueForum and on Youtube unboxings the paint is immaculate. I also love the dynamic pose where he's flying backwards and shooting off a missile. This will be my first and only movie piece and that's because I just love the movie armor. The comic armors have never done anything for me and I really hope we see a version of the movie armor in the Avengers videogame some day.

So I recently ordered this, and this is my first statue. So out of 3000 that were made I got number 0166. I am really impressed with the colors and details.

Nice! Get some pics up when you can! Mine will be here on Monday because it's coming all the way to NY from Cali.

Just some quick and dirty cell phone pics. Statue is stunning in person. They really nailed the armor and the shine and the lighting effect is amazing. Since I don't collect movies statues this one is going next to my computer in my gaming room with my PS5/Series X and my OLED. Will keep it on during gaming
