Some say MK 7 is not worth as it has too many interchangeable parts, not like previous MK 6 which has extended/opening parts to review the missile.
and it seems like Hot Toys does not showing their effort on doing this figure.

My opinion is HT doing the interchangeable part is to avoid "heavy usage" on open and close the parts which would cause "wear-off" and loose of the joint, interchangeable part is good for display in the cabinet, and preserve the outlook of this toy...

What say you guys?

1. Are you a HT newbie?... seems Mk. VII and TDKR brings-in lots of newbies. Who are these "some" that you mentioned?

2. Clavicle missles and pop-out hip flares are possible to be impliment on Mk. VI because the mechanics are possible to be implimented in 1/6 scale toy form. Forearms missles were not possible (on Mk. VI) and these are modullar/replacing parts. I'd also say interchangeble parts  are not more robust and if not proverly designed are prone to breakage as well. Mk. IV & VI are fragile.

3. The modular thigh and clavicle missles of Mk. VII neccesitates interchangeble parts as HT have designed... it's simply not feasible to produce a functional the retracting shoulder, thigh missles or even the uni forearm missile  (that looks good).

I am newbies for HT after Avengers movie, first of my HT is Mark II AU.
I agree with you too, bro. Some ppl in other forum critique on the Mark VII, like what I mentioned, they said too much interchangeable part than opening part.
Feeling like HT is playing around with cost and revenue, hahaha.

I rather get a interchangeable part for more solid figure, than a fragile figure with a lot of opening part...Mark II AU are quite fragile on this.

but one a-bit-disappointing thing is, Mark VII does not has a special design stand.

Sorry too busy hari raya at home. This morning only can do group shot

1. Personally i prefer mark 5, mark 6 and warmachine
2. You can do poses but really need to bit more careful many fragile parts
3. cost approx rm550 each and i don't intend to play with these collectables so just display them in the cabinet

Awesome collection, and get a awesome price, i wish i could get the Mark 4...

A belated Selamat Hari Raya to you, bro  tongue.gif  Great photo shoot.... make sure the kids at your house or visitor's kids don't get their grubby hands on it.... sekali jatuh  doh.gif

Fuyoh, canggihnya, all the Iron Man...  rclxms.gif
I WANT Iron Man Mark IV and War Machine....  drool.gif  Now, prices soo high... think min RM700 per figure, can only see, no touch.  cry.gif

Prices have increased a lot for the Hot Toys, bro... no more RM550... increase up to RM700 for new Avengers set... I only want one, but wallet  sweat.gif  sweat.gif  sweat.gif  Try to avoid poison by not looking at the pix.

Still deciding on Mark VII cos:
1. Price is too high see rclxub.gif
2. Need to pry out battery... aiseh, leceh scared scratch the nice paint
3. Pink panties issue... some say use Mr. Color 47 to airbrush the part so that the red returns, but dunno why Hot Toys never fix this issue on their own.

Thanks for sharing biggrin.gif

Haven't pre-order the Mk 7? then you might be getting price higher than 750 when it comes to stock.
I wasn't border so much of the issue, the new Mark 6 Avengers version seems that HT has resolved their pink panty issue.

Battery issue, it won't leak within a year or two. no worry much about this.

Hi Jason, nice to meet you  smile.gif

I'm usually quite thrifty, so the thought of spending so much money on an action figure makes me  sweat.gif  doh.gif  sweat.gif  Only reason I'm even considering is because of the  thumbup.gif Iron Man movie  thumbup.gif  with excellent acting by Robert Downey Jr. When he suited up in the Iron Man armor...  drool.gif  drool.gif  drool.gif

Only can afford 1 and only 1! So far I like Mark IV best. Mark VII is ok-lar, but I don't like silver, prefer gold and red scheme mar... 

Trying to resist and wait for Iron Man 3 movie to come out. Hopefully got reissue version of Mark 4. Or more canggih Iron Man armor... Seems like there's going to be a reverse color scheme... aiyah, milk(Iron)man  doh.gif

Nice to meet you Bro~
I discover HT too late, only after avengers movie, hahaha...
So far I can see the new version of iron man that will shown in Iron Man 3 would be Mark 8 and new war machine.
Mark 8 are mainly Yellow (Gold) and some red also, maybe suit your taste.

I am waiting for war machine reissue also.
I like Mark VII as for me it seems like combination of Mark 3, 4 and 6...

War Machine now way too expensive in Ebay...mostly over 750 now...
Next year would be a year of Iron Man

Hi BeastX,

I've looked around but most shop is selling pre-orders with Gantry @ RM1,599... If can get reissue Mark IV at RM600, please let me know where.

Really tempted to get one biggrin.gif

Try to get it thru Ebay, I saw one selling at 700 few days ago~

Mark VII is nice but a bit too busy, with the silver pads etc.

Still hoping for an reissue of Mark IV. Heard War Machine in Iron Man 3 will be Iron Patriot, look a bit like Captain America color except it's an armor.

I am hoping for a reissue of Old War Machine...and hopefully got version 2.0, which is enhance one~ rclxm9.gif
if Mark 8 is looks like this, I maybe skip~

Guys need opinion

this is my 1st Hot toys iron man should i buy Mark V(Rm500) or Mark Vi(RM900)?

is the mark Vi over price?

ThX!!
*
Way to expensive for VI...I rather order VII which i get below 700, and still i think the feature is comparable/better with VI (personal opinion)
Mark 5 is great, but for me the feature is a bit too "thin", i prefer muscular type of robotic body shape.
Anyway, everyone's preferences is different, no matter how much it cost, as long as you like it, and you think is worth it, then go ahead rclxm9.gif

btw, beware of the pink panty of VI, this is one of the disappointing thing happen in the figure.

Yep, pink panties are horrible.... I see on Youtube some fix with Mr. Color 47 and air brush... can really see a huge difference.

Mark V not only thin but the silver is not very nice... looks plasticky  unsure.gif . They should have used the Mark II's silver scheme, looks more metallic.

Say about Mark II, what you think about Mark II and Mark II AU?
the paint used totally different, the first version are much more brighter, but second version is much more metallic and dark...

HT "took off" with the talents of Yulli and JC Hong... with the MMS series. Realistic face sculpts that hardly anyone now can match (except maybe EB), they found a niche with realistic figures... eclipse the big players like Medicom/Takara... etc that fell behind... Sideshow/EB are the other big license players now.

Then they expanded with computer aided design from weapons/guns... then to full figures... robocop/ed209/power loader.... then they start to increase complexicity of CAD design figures with IM Mk. 3, and ever more complex vehicles and robots/armors since... /////Bandai ... and Takara/Hasbro still have the better designs at the moment with the PG series... and Master Piece series respectively./// not entirely related/// In license robotic/armor action figures a possible emerging player is 3A.

There also the emerging market 1/4 scale action figures by EB & HT... and Bandai getting into 1/6 action figure as well...

HT's major advantage:
1. Korean Head sculpt talents
2. Excellent paints (JC Hong) and paint QC
3. Great/improving CAD designers
4. Great tailoring
5. An ok body and alien/monster sculptor.

HT's weakness:
1. Bad in material science, incompatible materials, poor materials that degrade with time.
2. Lacking customer service response.
3. Rather short guarantee
4. Lacking body design mechanics (joints & articulation).. (related to Advantage no. 3)
*
Nice sharing Bro, I think what you say about material is right, the price getting higher, but material getting worse. doh.gif
