Since the Hot Toys Battle-Damaged Iron Man Mark VII figure was announced as an Iron Man 3 Movie Promo figure a few weeks ago, fans have been anxiously refreshing their web browsers every day in hopes for snagging one of these strictly-limited figures for their collections. While the actual Hot Toys Movie Promo Battle-Damaged Iron Man Mark VII won’t be released until the third quarter of 2013, a store in Singapore has the prototype for the figure, giving us our best photos and look at the Hot Toys Iron Man Battle-Damaged Mark VII yet…
To promote the “Lucky Draw” for this figure, Action City has the actual prototype of the Hot Toys Avengers Battle-Damaged Iron Man Mark VII on-display. This has given us our first chance to see the figure from behind, although there isn’t a whole lot of wear or battle-damage on the back of the Iron Man Mark VII Movie Promo Edition figure.
While the Iron Man Mark VII Movie Promo Edition figure will be essentially a repaint of the standard Hot Toys Avengers Iron Man Mark 7, it will come with several all-new accessories including new repulsor-blast hands, an Iron Man helmet with Robert Downey Jr. Tony Stark face showing, a Chitauri weapon, and a ridiculously-cool fallen Chitauri alien figure base.
The Avengers Hot Toys line has been one of the most successful branches ever in the Hot Toys Movie Masterpiece Series, and is full of sold-out figures. The Hot Toys Hulk figure is already sold-out even though he’s months away from release (though you can still get on the Wait List for one), so fans are especially jumpy about the possibility of this even more limited Hot Toys Iron Man 3 promo figure selling out.
Sideshow Collectibles has already announced that they will be the United States distributor for the Avengers Hot Toys Battle-Damaged Iron Man Mark VII Movie Promo figure. Be sure to bookmark the Sideshow Collectible website and keep checking back if you want to get the Battle Damaged Iron Man Mark VII, as it’s sure to be an extremely fast sell-out. I’ll post pre-order links as soon as the figure goes up for order.
