We knew going into this weekend’s D23 Expo 2013 that that first series of Disney Vinylmation Marvel figures wasn’t going to be until fall, so there were zero expectations for an early release at the convention or anything like that. But sometimes it’s nice to have the bar set low, because then you can be pleasantly surprised!

No, Disney didn’t sell the series at the show, but they did give out free promotional trading cards showing off photos of the Vinylmation Marvel Series 1 figures for the very first time!

Last week Hot Toys shocked the Marvel Hot Toys collecting world by announcing that the first Iron Man 3 Movie Masterpiece Series figure to be released would be a previously unannounced Hot Toys Midas Mark 21 Iron Man figure–and that he was going to be released first at the Hot Toys exhibition in Taiwan this week!

It turns out Hot Toys was telling the truth (what, you thought they weren’t?), as the Mark XXI Iron Man Midas Hot Toys figure has now been released overseas!

Well, what do you know, the Mandarin was right–I really didn’t see it coming!

Even though I’ve been one of the (minority of) ardent fans and supporters of the Iron Man 3 Mandarin since the movie came out, and despite the fact that I had seen the glamor photos earlier this week and knew the Hot Toys Mandarin would be up for pre-order soon, I was still taking completely unawares: The Iron Man 3 Hot Toys Mandarin is now up for order!

I woke up last week to what every man dreams of–unexpected new glamor shots of a new Hot Toys Iron Man figure. Though it had made its debut at SDCC 2013 less than a week before, the Hot Toys Iron Man Silver Centurion Mark 33 Enhanced Energy Suit was already ready for its official photography session! As soon as I saw that Hot Toys had posted photos, I knew it was only a matter of time until the red and silver centurion made his presence known on Sideshow Collectibles website. Well, it took a lot longer than I expected–a whole week longer. But lo and behold–he has arrived! The Iron Man 3 Hot Toys Silver Centurion Iron Man figure is now available for pre-order!

Iron Man 3 Hot Toys Tony Stark The Mechanic Up for Order!

Hot Toys Iron Man 3 Tony Stark Mandarin Mansion Assault with Iron Man Arm

The central theme of Iron Man 3 is that it is the strength, bravery and intelligence of an individual that makes them a hero–not their weapons or technology. We see this with both Tony Stark (who spends the vast majority of the movie without armor) and James Rhodes (who is far more effective outside the Iron Patriot armor than he is in it in the film). So it’s only fitting that amongst an armada of Iron Man suits, Hot Toys capture both of Robert Downey Jr.’s iconic appearances from Iron Man 3. The first Workshop Tony Stark has been up for order for months, and the new (and far cooler) Hot Toys Tony Stark the Mechanic figure is now up for pre-order!

Certain to be one of the most controversial figures announced by Hot Toys this year, today the company announced another new entry in the Hot Toys Iron Man 3 series. You may have thought that Hot Toys had played all their cards at SDCC 2013 last week, but they had at least one more figure they were holding back: the Iron Man 3 Hot Toys Tony Stark Mandarin Mansion Assault version sixth scale figure!

Iron Man Marvel Legends Series 3 in Fall 2013 – Mandarin, Pepper!

Iron Man 3 Marvel Legends Rescue Figure Wearing Helmet Pepper Potts SDCC 2013

Though the “Iron Man 3” movie wasn’t quite the most well-loved Marvel Studios movie to date (except to me–I loved it more than any other Marvel movie, bar “Avengers), Hasbro is moving forward with a third series of Iron Man Marvel Legends in Fall 2013 regardless. This is going to be a rather controversial wave, however, as it contains an armor not seen in “Iron Man 3”, a villain (of a sort) who’s the subject of more hatred toward Marvel Studios than any other character ever from the movies, and a character who’s not (exactly) in the movies at all…

UPDATE: Hasbro has confirmed via photos that the Pepper Potts Rescue figure can wear her helmet. Photo added to the article–she looks great!

Iron Man 3 Hot Toys Mandarin Sixth Scale Figure SDCC 2013

Someday I will write a long-winded post in which I discuss, in detail, why I believe the usage of the “Mandarin” character in this summer’s Iron Man 3 movie to be the stuff of purest genius. But that is not this day! No, this day is another day of import, for the Mandarin and Iron Man both!

For this day is San Diego Comic Con 2013 Preview Night, and it is also the evening that the Iron Man 3 Hot Toys Mandarin and Silver Centurion Iron Man figures made their long-awaited debuts!

Considering that Hot Toys had held out this long, you would think–you would just think–that they would want to wait just a few more hours to do a grandiose reveal of their upcoming Iron Man 3 Hot Toys Heartbreaker Iron Man Diecast Movie Masterpiece Series figure at San Diego Comic Con 2013 Preview Night. But if you thought that (like me), you thought wrong!

Hot Toys was cruising along at breakneck speed with announcements about the Iron Man 3 Hot Toys figures line–right up until the movie came out two months ago. Ever since, things have been eerily quiet in Iron Man 3 world (at least as far as Hot Toys is concerned). But fear not–the silence is at it’s end!
