1/6 Hot Toys MMS241 The Winter Soldier Review

I've had Bucky for a while now but thought I'd lift him out and take some pictures. Even though the film ends with giant floating battleships, I still appreciate the more down to Earth feel that rest of Captain America: The Winter Soldier has. I  personally loved the film and ended up buying multiple Hot Toys figures based on the film.

Enjoy the rest of the pics n quick figure review.

Hot Toys Whiplash (Iron Man 2) Jumpsuit alteration.

Well I finally got around to changing the colour of Whiplash's jumpsuit. For legal reasons Hot Toys Could not release the figure with the correct orange jump suit as seen in the movie, tsk. So they went with a brown jumpsuit instead (see at the bottom of this post for the example)

Hot Toys Ironman MK VI

Got this recently. It's the Mark VI Ironman suit from the movie Ironman 2 (the suit he wears at the end after revising his ARC reactor design) Damn he's cool. Even better than the MK III (From the first Ironman movie) and I prefer this to the MK IV suit. Enjoy.

Hot Toys Iron Man Mk 3 Battle Damaged Review Pt2

Here's the link to Part one in case you missed it.

So below is a picture of all the spare hands and spare head that he comes with. He also comes with a interchangeable chest piece which is all dented and scuffed. This is from the final scene from Iron Man 1 when his suit is all bust up. Personally I don't care for the look, I much more prefer the normal chest piece.

Hot Toys Iron Man Mk 3 Battle Damaged Review Pt1

Man I've been waiting for this for what seems like forever! I pre-Ordered it last year ha. I'm pleased to finally say it arrived the other. Hot Toys Iron Man Mark 3 (battle damaged)

I guess you could say this is a special edition of the version they already released. The battle damaged version comes with way more features than the original that they produced and is well worth the spend. Lets take a look at him!

Iron Man Mark 6 Diamond Select Review

Well bit of a break from 1/6 scale again. I saw these the other day in a local Forbidden Planet store. Recently I've been tempted by smaller scale figures and I'm pleased I went for this one. This is Diamond Selects Iron Man Mark VI from the movie Iron Man 2. He stands approx 7" and is actually pretty good.

So to get things started I thought I'd mention the flight wings on his back, pretty simple but a nice feature that could easily have been missed off. The articulation works ok, though his legs are pretty bad and only have a very small range of movement. Seems they sculpted the figure without thinking about his hips. The little fins block most movement tsk.

Overall the quality of the plastic is pretty good and he really feels heavy and sturdy. The paint work looks great and really rich, though I have to say that the paint is easily chipped.

Also worth mentioning is, how come the eyes aren't painted? its not just mine, all of them in the store were the same.....

A nice feature is that his helmet is removable and can sit on the top of his head. He also comes with an alternative set of palms which has his fingers spread. These hands make for some cool poses and work well, the hands being ball jointed can strike a wide range of poses. He also comes with a large diorama style stand that is pretty good actually. and adds to the overall look of the figure.

Of course for a £14 figure I couldn't expect much from the face sculpt, it's ok but can't help think he looks a bit oriental heh, seems to always happen with Robert Downey Jr toys, random.

Although not massive, he stands pretty imposingly over Mcfarlane's Master Cheif.

Wor Fred wishing his jumper was such a bonnie shade.

Iron Man, about to bust out some tap dancin moves.

For an Iron Man fan I'd recommend it, it makes a nice little piece just standing on its own and doesn't feel too toyish. (yeah I know it's totally a toy but hey I'll never be too old for toys!)

I've also picked up Diamond Selects War Machine, Keep an eye out for some pictures soon.
