Just when I thought Iron Man Mark IV (with Suit-Up Gantry) would be my first Hot Toys purchase, I actually got Mark II (Armor Unleashed) instead !!
Seriously I wasn't even (not even a wee bit) interested in getting the Mark II initially as it was an easy pass for me when local toy store was putting it up for pre-order. I was thinking .."what the hell do i need another iron man figure when i already pre-ordered a mark iv with suit up gantry?"
What appeared as a I-DON'T-WANT kind of thing soon evolve into a FRANTIC-DESPERATE-I-MUST HAVE-OR-I-WILL-DIE kind of situation !!
(...as usual it normally starts with an INNOCENT look on youtube review and that is when the poison starts kicking in... with immediate effect!! )
I hurriedly checked all local toy store for it and DAMNED... it is either those stock were for pre-order customer OR the prices were sky high. I was totally devastated.
Just when all hopes were lost....then came the AVENGERS....err.....nope I mean HLJ !! They came to my rescue when they sent an email with a catchy line......"They came beyond Japan"...
and the rest as they say is history.....suffice to say the price I purchased was slightly cheaper than local pre-order price level. (wuahahaha)
Looks like I better stop here and let the pictures do the TALKING !!
Note : Presently all shots taken by my Samsung Galaxy Note...sorry for the poor quality....until I lay my hands on one DSLR !!

Great review! I just bought this figure on ebay and I have been looking for more pics of it. The figure I bought was a "loose" figure with not many accessories but the price too good to pass up. What other figures do you collect? I main collect Saint Seiya Myth Cloths and Transformers. This Ironman and Selina Kyle will be my first Hot Toys collectibles.
ReplyDeleteHi there....great to know you have one too! I am a late hot toys collector and I am sure glad I have this v2 instead of the first release. My all time favourite is still transformers especially the G1 masterpiece series but I do collect macross and some japanese cartoon figures. Collecting toy is addictive...once hook and there ain't no turning back!!
