Well to be fair I would rather get the old ones even if I end up modding them to run in a straight line like Boba Debt did, they wont get damaged as easily being plastic and they don't have "Iron Man" stickers all over the base so thats why I am going with the older ones when I have the spare change around upcoming preorders.

See thats what is putting me off buying the original, what if there is one in AoU which looks so much better than either the original Hall or the HPP Hall which they put time, effort and materials in which looks better!

You know for a budget model its not so bad... Think I will be buying 4-7 of the original bays at some point down the road for my non standard hall line up.

Yeah, but for a styrofoam box at $130, it's horrible.

Re: 1/6 - Hot Toys - IM3 - Hall of Armor (House Party Protocol Ver.) - Spec + Pic

I was ignoring the price... the concept and construction is budget, the price isnt when for the same price (at least according to that display sign) you can get the original one which will stand up to the test of time longer.

Would be great if they would included these with the figure. We already get styrofoam with our diecast. Why not make this design instead and add padding inside for the figure. Well good thing there not Cardboard or they probly would be more expensive.

I can't believe they are charging the same price for this, what a joke. I don't see these selling well at all. Lets do the math, 35 suits x 130.....$4,550 on foam.

These are horrible, so how many are you guys buying?

Re: 1/6 - Hot Toys - IM3 - Hall of Armor (House Party Protocol Ver.) - Spec + Pic

These are not the same price as the Work Shop HOA, they are $60 which is half the price and I'm sue they weigh a fraction of the original version so shipping should be more in line with the cost of the product.

I agree totally. Maybe they're using foam to keep the weight down?

That does not look like $60

Re: 1/6 - Hot Toys - IM3 - Hall of Armor (House Party Protocol Ver.) - Spec + Pic

The person in the video confirmed that these are made of Styrofoam and they he paid $60 for his units in Hong Kong

I did the math, 42 of the original Work Shop HOA (WSHOA) bays would weigh 140 pounds with out the figures.

Thats Hot Toys $60 Totally different from regular currency

Re: 1/6 - Hot Toys - IM3 - Hall of Armor (House Party Protocol Ver.) - Spec + Pic

Watched the video earlier but I am not in HK and the display at SDCC says $130. So there is a $70 markup for the US or they mislabeled the price
