Last Post of Action City Hot Toys Iron Man Figurines Exhibition - Iron Monger, Gunmetal

continued from previous post...

This is my fourth and final toy blog post of my visit to the Action City Hot Toys 1/6th scale Iron Man Collectible Armors Assemble (Iron Man Figurines) exhibition held at Bugis Junction from April 28 till May 5, 2013 in conjunction with the release of the Iron Man 3 movie in Singapore. And what other Hot Toys Iron Man figures were on display? Well, just the usual suspects.


Starting with the Hot Toys 1/6 scale Iron Monger from the first Iron Man film highlighting the 1/6 scale head sculpt of Jeff Bridges as Obadiah Stane who in the movie attempts to destroy Tony Stark / Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr) with the Iron Monger armor based on the remains of Stark's Mark I armor obtained from the Ten Rings. Scroll down to see more pictures plus the remaining figures seen at the exhibition booth.






Also on display, the Hot Toys 1/6 scale Iron Man Mark I (version 2.0) figure from the Iron Man film, with flamethrower that "shoots out flames"



And then there's the Hot Toys "Iron Man 2" 1/6th scale Mark IV Limited Edition Collectible Figurine (Secret Project) which was a 2011 Toy Fairs Exclusive.



Finally, there's the Hot Toys 1/6 Iron Man 2 Suit-Up Gantry with Mark IV Limited Edition Collectible Set.


The Iron Man 2 Suit-Up Gantry also looks like a torture machine ;p



That about covers the Hot Toys Iron Man collectible figures seen at the Action City Hot Toys Iron Man Collectible Armors Assemble (Iron Man Figurines) exhibition held at Bugis Junction until May 5, 2013. Hope you all enjoyed the posts. I was most excited with the revealing of the 1/6 scale Whiplash Mark II armor suit at this exhibition on April 28, a world's first for Singapore :) You can check out my toy blog post HERE

There's also the Play Imaginative Super Alloy 1/4 scale Iron Man: Preview Showcase (check out my earlier post HERE) happening at the same place so you can check out both exhibits at the same time if you head down now

More Action City Hot Toys Iron Man Figurines Exhibition - Tony Stark Armor Test, Mark VII

What has come before...
World Premier of Hot Toys MMS 1/6 scale Iron Man 2 Armored Whiplash (Mark II) 12-inch limited edition collectible figure (NOT die-cast) at Bugis posted HERE.

Hot Toys Iron Man 3 Mark XLII and Iron Patriot figures showcased at the Action City Hot Toys 1/6th scale Iron Man Collectible Armors Assemble exhibition posted HERE.

What's next? How about the Hot Toys Iron Man 3 1/6 scale Tony Stark (Armor Testing Version) Collectible Figure with his Hall of Armor suits on display! This is the updated Robert Downey Jr as Tony Stark Head Sculpt plus Additional Right Forearm Armor that was added to pair up with the left one after taking into consideration fans’ comments and requests. What do you think?


This is actually the first MMS (Movie Masterpiece Series) figure from the latest Iron Man 3 movie by Hot Toys and it shows Tony Stark as he appeared in his workshop testing out his newest and latest armor suit, the Mark XLII among all the other Iron Man armor suits (from Mark I to Mark VII). Scroll down to see the rest of the pictures :) I've got lots to share.




This display is very impressive because you get to see all the seven Iron Man armor suits (Mark I to VII) from all the previous Iron Man films as well as the Mark VII from The Avengers movie being displayed in the Hall of Armor just as how it appeared in the movie. It's quite a sight to behold!


Tony comes fully dressed and a LED-light up stage with cardboard underneath is also included


Also comes with articulated mechanical robot with wheels and camera


Plus a desk with wheels and additional armor parts (helmet, face mask, neck support, elbow, palm and leg armors) as well as magazine, blueprints, electrical wires and tools (pincers and screwdrivers)


What caught a lot of people's eyes and attention was this particular display which showed a complete breakdown of the parts that go into making a Hot Toys Iron Man figure. Fans curious to know the making-of process are shown for the first time the over 300 parts of armor required to bring the amazing precision and movie-accurate likeness to life. It's a 1/6th scale Iron Man Collectible Armors Assembly display board and it's certainly quite amazing. Click on the picture for a bigger and better view :)

And of course there's the slightly more assembled Iron Man Mark II (Armor Unleashed version) from the Iron Man 2 movie

You know the drill ;p click to view


There's also the Hot Toys MMS 1/6 scale Iron Man Mark VII from The Avengers film on display at the Action City Hot Toys 1/6th scale Iron Man Collectible Armors Assemble (Iron Man Figurines) exhibition



Many people had queued up on Monday morning for this figure – the battle damaged Iron Man Mark VII (movie promo edition) as seen in The Avengers film which is limited to 300 pieces.


With battle damaged figures, it's easier for the company to sell because nobody can complain about the paint being chipped off or a scratch here and there since the figure is meant to have paint chipped off and scratches all over - it's supposed to because it's BATTLE DAMAGED. It's like paying good money for a beat up car instead of a brand new one. Heck, in this case, the beat up car costs a lot more too.



What else is there at the Action City Hot Toys Iron Man Figurines Exhibition held at Bugis Singapore until May 5, 2013? Check out my NEXT post to find out ;p

Action City Hot Toys Iron Man Figurines Exhibition - Iron Man 3 Mark XLII and Iron Patriot

continued from previous post where we saw the debut of Hot Toys Armored Whiplash Mark II ...

Seen at the Action City Hot Toys Iron Man Figurines Exhibition now on at Bugis until May 5 - Hot Toys Iron Man 3 1/6 scale Mark XLII armor suit as seen in the latest Iron Man 3 movie with the latest 1/6 scale Tony Stark head sculpt. This is the Hot Toys MMS Diecast Series Iron Man 3 1/6th scale Mark XLII Limited Edition Collectible Figure which was previewed earlier HERE but nothing beats seeing it up close and now you can if you live in Singapore :)


The movie-accurate Mark XLII Collectible Figurine is highly detailed and features the specially crafted image of Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark wearing the Mark XLII as seen in the movie, showcasing the highly detailed head sculpt, metallic red, golden and silver well equipped armor with light-up functions. On display is the battle-damaged option as this particular MMS Die-cast Mark XLII (Mark 42) comes with interchangeable armor parts. Scroll down to see more pictures including the Hot Toys PPS001 Iron Man 3: 1/6th scale Power Pose Mark XLII Collectible Figurine, 1/4 scale Iron Man Mark XLII and Iron Patriot busts plus Hot Toys Iron Man 3 1/6th scale Iron Patriot 12" Collectible Figure.







Also on display at the Action City Hot Toys 1/6th scale Iron Man Collectible Armors Assemble exhibition being held at Bugis Junction from April 29 till May 5, 2013 - the incoming Hot Toys PPS001 Iron Man 3: 1/6th scale Power Pose Mark XLII Collectible Figure


The PPS001 Iron Man 3: 1/6th scale Power Pose Mark XLII certainly looks impressive!


Oops! Pardon the blu tac at his crotch. Nothing I can do about that. I just take pictures of what I see and post here in my toy blog to share with everyone. Perhaps some kinks need to be ironed out haha



And then there's the huge 1:1 scale Iron Man 3 Mark XLII which strikes almost the same pose as the PPS001 1/6th scale Power Pose Iron Man 3 Mark XLII but being an actual size model, it makes for some great photo-taking opportunities and certainly draws in the crowds.


It's quite well done too. Disney / Marvel didn't even have this statue at the movie screenings. Hot Toys and Action City are the only ones displaying this. Kudos to them





Here you see the Hot Toys 1:4 scale Iron Man 3 Mark XLII bust up close


There's also the Hot Toys 1:4 scale Iron Man 3 Iron Patriot bust on display as well


Finally, check out the Hot Toys Iron Man 3 1/6th scale Iron Patriot 12" Collectible Figure on display at the Action City Iron Man 3 Hot Toys Collectible Figurines Exhibition (also known as Hot Toys 1/6th scale Iron Man Collectible Armors Assemble exhibition) @ Bugis Junction happening from now April 29 till May 5, 2013


This is the Hot Toys MMS Diecast Series movie-accurate Iron Patriot Collectible Figure that is specially crafted based on the image of Don Cheadle as Iron Patriot in the movie, highlighting the highly detailed head sculpt, metallic red, white and blue star spangled armor, light-up functions and rotatable machine gun.


No 1:6 scale Don Cheadle head sculpt seen on display but this figure is very impressive nonetheless. I am excited about this figure



NEXT: Hot Toys Iron Man 3 1/6 scale Tony Stark (Armor Testing Version) Collectible Figure with his Hall of Armor suits on display! What a sight to behold.

There's also the Play Imaginative Super Alloy 1/4 scale Iron Man: Preview Showcase (check out my earlier post HERE) happening at the same place so you can check out both exhibits at the same time if you head down now
