I literally was hoping for the exact same thing, but unfortunately that's just how it was designed in the movie.

Obviously it's more complex and intricate but it all comes down to value, and for me this doesn't scream value for my money.

I get it, value is subjective based on individual preferences - I can't argue about what has value to someone else. However, value from an objective standpoint against other figures (e.g. clone wars Anakin) is what I thought we were talking about. Is it priced high? Yes. Is it priced high relatively to other figures taking into account the detail, intricacies, and singular nature of the piece (i.e., a brand new piece with a mold that can't be reused for other figures). Objectively speaking, I think the answer to that question is no.
Edit - and after I stated that, I see Sideshow seems to be marking this up more than usual.

Yeah, not worth the cost, plus the figure says "multiple points of articulation" instead of giving you a number. I feel like this is going to be a slightly movable statue.

$420 plastic Iron Man figure...
For that price Robert Downey Jr. AND Jake Gyllenhaal should hand deliver it to your door...
You might want to rethink that pricing considering RDJ alone was paid $1 million per minute on the set of Spider-Man Homecoming:

lol $420? give me a break. I am one of the biggest Hot Toys fanboys out there and that is ridiculous even to me.
Price is a tough pill but it is a definite order for me. Will wait for a $25 off coupon to use and then just do a long payment plan. Plenty of time.

Price isnt too surprising honestly. Look at the amount of damage detail and the paint app. Hot Toys has limited workers and I'm sure this figure takes a good bit of time to get off their production line (compared to others). It's alot of hand painting and attention to detail. This plus the Iron Man tax
Agreed. Both versions of Mark 85 are more than this, and this has far more detailing. I'm not making excuses for them, but it's not like this is out of the park expensive compared to other releases.
Ordered.

Yikes, that is a steep price for absolutely no diecast parts. Going to have to be a hard pass on him.
Also, we are now doing basically 2 years out on release dates?!
Everything announced yesterday is 2022. That is a bit much,
They need to just stop announcing things for a little while and get caught up with ****.

It wasn?t $1 million per minute ON SET. Even the article you linked doesn?t say that.
Apologies for the wording. You are correct, it?s dividing his salary by the total screen time he has. It was more a jab at the extreme salary of the actors. I wasn?t attempting to spread ?fake news.?
