which do you like best out of the three?
For me, nothing touches the original MK1 by SWS/Legacy, but the IS is a close second (those damn lights). I'm a fan of their 1/4 scale sizing. It just seems like you are getting a nice quality piece for your money. The paint job on this thing almost matches the one on the MK1, as if they were both produced by SWS/Legacy.
The MK2 seems out of place with that sleek, black paint job. I know the story is that Stark redesigned it that way to reduce the bulk/tank look of the MK1.
I'm getting the rest in the series with the exception of Cap/WS. Still undecided on those.
I just got this guy. Woowee. So big and heavy.
Broken War Machine packed and shipped back this morning. Now the hunt begins again! LOL!!!
So not fun returning stuff. Smashing stuff is no fun either.
More $$$$ than he was for the U.S. at SSC, but I had great luck with Popcultcha if you really want WM. Got a perfect WS and Falcon from them earlier this year, that "E2 shipping" was impressively fast to the U.S., they're used to international customers. And they did respond when I had questions. Not saying they are always perfect but I would order from them again, for sure. I like their "Pennies" program too. Plus they will return/exchange stuff.
I figure LOL just "give up a couple of 1/6 HTs and you spent the same". And "at least you are happy w. your 1/4s that you will keep for years even if you did just drop more $$$ at the hardware store for supplies for the display cabinet you are hacking because you love your IS 1/4 Civil War statues so much." That's what I tell myself anyway.
Good luck with getting a WM!
I've been looking at their website, just trying to decide which one to order first. Secret Compass has them but very expensive. I've already decided I'm gonna need a custom piece of furniture to display them properly. LOL! Thanks for the recommendation.
View attachment 360910 My War Machine arrived yesterday in good shape. Here's a quick pic of him and the WM markIII Hot Toy version. He's huge! I was surprised how big he is.
Thanks! I was sweating opening that big box up! LOL! The base on this one is better painted with shading more like the Cap and WS bases. The first ones base almost looked like it hadn't been done at all. I've got to find that TV a new home. Lol! I'll try and get better pics when Falcon and BP are delivered. They're supposed to be delivered this week.
