Hot Toys Iron Man 3 Bones Armor Sixth Scale Figure

Marvel Toy News readers have had to hear me cry and moan for a year that I was certain my favorite Iron Man 3 House Party Protocol Iron Man armor was never going to be produced as a Hot Toys sixth scale figure. Well, as is wont to happen sometimes–I was wrong. Overnight, a brand new and totally unexpected new Movie Masterpiece Series figure made its debut online, and now it’s time to get out our credit cards out–the Hot Toys Bones Iron Man Mark XLI sixth scale figure is now up for order!

Banpresto Iron Man WCF World Collectible Figures Photos Preview

WCF Iron Man World Collectable Figures Banpresto

I buy almost as many import anime toys as I do Marvel toys, so I’m pretty familiar with Japanese manufacturer Banpresto. In fact, they make some of my favorite static One Piece figures, including the detailed Grandline Men and Master Stars Piece lines. Banpresto is perhaps most famous, though, for their game center prize figures, including the World Collectible Figures (WCF). Usually the WCF line is reserved for anime and Japanese characters, but this fall Banpresto will bring Marvel into the WCF world–the Iron Man World Collectable Figures are now up for order!

Iron Man 3 Maquette Iron Man Mark 42 Armor Quarter Scale Statue

It’s been an abnormally quiet news week, and that means it’s the perfect time for Sideshow Collectibles to try to claim Marvel collectors’ attention (and future dollars) with another pre-order! This time, Sideshow is finally ready to fully reveal a statue that it’s been teasing us with for several weeks now. When the Sideshow Iron Patriot Maquette arrives at the end of 2014 he won’t have to be lonely for long–the quarter-scale Sideshow Iron Man Mark 42 Maquette is now up for order!

SH Figuarts Iron Patriot Figure with Exclusive Shoulder Cannon Effects Piece

After their debut at the Bandai Tamashii Nations Summer Collection 2014 event last month, many Marvel collectors have been waiting restlessly for the latest pair of Bandai S.H. Figuarts Iron Man 3 figures to go up for pre-order. Well, it took a few more weeks than many fans would like, but the day is here. Bandai doesn’t have the rights to distribute these figures in America, so they’ll be a tad expensive, but they come with some very cool first edition exclusive extras! The S.H. Figuarts Iron Patriot and Iron Man Mark 42 figures are now up for order!

Revoltech Midas Iron Man Mark XXI Figure Announced & Photos

Iron Man 3 Revoltech Midas Iron Man Figure Poster

At this point, I’ve come to realize that virtually every company that’s ever made a sculpt for the Iron Man Mark VII armor is going to do a money-grab by repainting that item gold and calling it Midas Iron Man. Don’t fight it–just accept it.

And the latest company to cash in on their old Revoltech Iron Man Mark VII figure sculpt is Kaiyodo! Coming this fall–the Revoltech Iron Man Mark XXI figure is now up for order!

SH Figuarts Iron Patriot Figure Bandai 2014

As a big anime fan and anime figure collector, the annual Bandai Tamashii Nations collector events are some of my favorite occasions to look forward to. Usually I’m looking forward to these shows for news on Gundam or One Piece or Dragon Ball Z, but the last few years Bandai has also had a slight Marvel presence. And at this weekend’s Bandai Tamshii Nations Summer 2014 Collection event, they finally debuted their first two figures from Iron Man 3: the SH Figuarts Iron Patriot and Iron Man Mark 42 figures!

Hot Toys Iron Man 3 Series 2 Busts Revealed & Photos

Iron Man Hot Toys Busts Series II Set of 8 with exclusive Holographic Mark 42 Iron Man

It seems like everything that Hot Toys produces turns to gold, but even the best companies have a dud sometimes. I was certain the Hot Toys Iron Man 3 Busts Series 1 set was going to flop with the mini-bust market being all but dead in 2014.

To my amazement, not only is the bust line continuing, but I like the second series a whole lot more than the first! Iron Man 3 Hot Toys Busts Series 2 is now up for order!

SH Figuarts Iron Man Mark 42 Figure Revealed by Bandai!

Bandai S.H. Figuarts Iron Man Mark XLII 42 Figure from Iron Man 3 Movie

For the past couple weeks, I feel like all the news has been about Captain America and the Guardians of the Galaxy. Nothing wrong with that–I love Cap and Rocket Raccoon as much as the next guy (okay, I love Rocket more than most), but I also like to see some less-merchandised, obscure characters get the spotlight. This latest news isn’t regarding one of those characters. In fact, it’s a new figure of a character who’s gotten more merch in the past few years than any other. But this is a good one–it’s the Bandai S.H. Figuarts Iron Man Mark 42 (XLII) figure!

Hot Toys Rose Hill Tony Stark Released & Crazy Sale Prices!

Rose Hill Tony Stark Hot Toys Iron Man 3 Figure

Confession time: As ardent of a supporter of Iron Man 3 and the Hot Toys Iron Man 3 line as I am, there’s one figure that I passed on attempting to pre-order and have no intention of ever picking up. That figure is the Hot Toys Rose Hill Tony Stark figure (which some people affectionately refer to as “Cowboy Tony”). Yes, there’s actually a figure of Tony Stark from the seconds where he walked into a TV van donning a cowboy hat. That’s one surprise–but the real surprise is that this particular just-released Hot Toys Tony Stark Rose Hill figure is selling for $400+ online already!

Hot Toys Heartbreaker & Iron Man Mark 42 Figures Delayed

Posted on by February 4, 2014
Sideshow Iron Man 3 Iron Man Mark XLII Hot Toys Figure

There’s some good news and some bad news for Marvel Hot Toys collectors today. The good news is that one of this year’s less-anticipated figures is getting pushed forward by several months.

The bad news is that two of this year’s most-anticipated releases are delayed by up to half a year each. If you’re waiting for the Hot Toys Heartbreaker Iron Man and Iron Man Mark 42 MMS figures (like me), you’re going to have to wait a while more than you hoped…

Hot Toys War Machine Mark II Diecast Figure Released & Photos!

Hot Toys War Machine Mark II in Styrofoam Packaging Tray

After over half a year of speculation (and quite a few doubts) about the Hot Toys Die-Cast Movie Masterpiece Series figures, the first of the three Iron Man 3 Hot Toys Die-Cast figures has been released in Hong Kong (and will ship from Sideshow next week in the United States)! And while the Hot Toys War Machine Mark II Diecast figure is the Iron Man 3 die-cast figure that went up for sale last and doesn’t appear in the Iron Man 3 movie (at all), it’s hard not to be impressed by the aesthetic quality and advanced articulation of Hot Toy’s latest release…

Hot Toys Starboost Iron Man Mark XXXIX Photos & Order Info!

Hot Toys 2014 Iron Man 3 Gemini Iron Man Starboost Mark 39 MMS Figure

We’re only on the second day of 2014, but the time has arrived for the first major Marvel pre-order of the new year! And this will sound unbelievable, but I swear that I willed this pre-order into existence by posting the Marvel Hot Toys 2014 Release Schedule last night. See, while I was lamenting the $2500 of my future money that Hot Toys had already claimed, I was simultaneously wondering if the Starboost Iron Man would ever go up for order. Hot Toys must have heard my thoughts, because the Hot Toys Starboost Iron Man Mark XXXIX Movie Masterpiece Series 1/6 figure is now available for order with no deposit required!

Marvel Hot Toys 2014 Release Schedule

Close-Up of Heartbreaker Iron Man 3 Hot Toys Sixth Scale Figure

If there’s one company that I’m finding I really need to plan my collecting budget around for the entire year, it’s Hot Toys and their amazing (but oh-so-expensive) Marvel Movie Masterpiece Series figures. While I was drawing out my 2014 budget today (yes, I waited until January 1st, 2014 to do so), I realized there were quite a few more Hot Toys Marvel MMS figures already announced for 2014 than I thought, so I had to adjust my outlook accordingly. I figured some other Hot Toys collectors are probably having the same problem as me, so I thought I’d share my Marvel Hot Toys 2014 release schedule to help other fans plan out their future Hot Toys-induced debt…

Iron Patriot Quarter Scale Maquette Revealed & Up for Order!

Sideshow Collectibles Iron Patriot Quarter Scale Maquette Iron Man 3 Movie

Despite having limited sceen-time and little action in this year’s Iron Man 3 movie, the Iron Patriot is beyond any shadow of a doubt the breakout character from that film. But as much Iron Patriot merchandise as we’ve seen this year, it’s 2014 that will truly be the year of the Iron Patriot. Despite a huge surplus of Iron Patriot collectibles already scheduled for 2014, Sideshow Collectibles has just announced one more exquisite high-end Iron Patriot item–the Sideshow Iron Patriot Quarter Scale Maquette goes up for order later today!
