Didn't think I needed another War Machine after getting the Mark I, but the IV is just as good.

Got mine this week (Monday) but was traveling on business so didn't get to open until today. The Iron Man Mark L was my first Diecast and I expected a similar heft to War Machine. I didn't consider the streamline nature of the Mark L so when I setup War Machine I was blown away by both the feel in-hand and the presence on the shelf. This baby thick! So glad I switched my End Game War Machine to this version. With this and the End Game Iron Patriot, my Rhodie presence should be good to go...
 
Just as everyone has been saying, this thing is thicc and hefty. Very impressed with the details and design. My left arm is a little loose too so I think that?s a common issue, but it doesn?t really affect the figure in my opinion. Crotch grabber sucks...his butt is too big for it to properly cradle the figure.

Just opened mine today to check it out and I got to say (besides being gorgeous) its becoming more and more stressful to pose these guys for fear of ****ing something up. The price point and fragility are beginning to stress me out. I'm really worried about chipping the paint around the hips...

I couldn't agree more...the liftable flap area on the hip chips/scratches so easily! Also the backpack area chips easily too, the top portion of the backpack left 2 chip marks on the silver paint...although I'm pretty sure it was like that on the figure.
 
Urgh, I got some glue residue that recorded a partial fingerprint under one of the wing flap on mine. Being not in the US is a pain when this kind of stuff happens. I might try to put some matte clear coat over it.

Yeah mine came with a slight paint rub on the hip armor. A real pain in the ass...

Bummer. I had a similar experience on my ED-209 many years ago. As long as it is only the vapor and not actual glue, I have been very successful multiple times on multiple items using 70% isopropyl alcohol to remove the mark. The paint should not be affected, but check in an inconspicuous place first. Use a moistened (w/70%) cotton swab, wipe the area and use the other side of the swab to dry it off. Good luck!

Same here ! but im not going for Iron Patriot :)

I'm happy to report that both my arms are fine! There doesn't appear to be any looseness on the figure's left arm, instead both have the same amount of tension and movement...or at least I was unable to detect anything noticeably different.

I also don't have any problems with the arms

While perusing to make sure that WM had no defects or anything I did detect one minor gripe. The left kneecap on mine does not fully engage or line up with the 2 separate camo pieces.

Notice on the right knee cap (or my left when viewing him) the 2 separate kneecap pieces align perfectly when it is straight...

However the left knee cap doesn't align perfectly, allowing for a slight gap to appear where you can see the metal joint underneath. ..

The same situation in my WM, the right is ok but the left has a small gap.

I have one problem that no one mentioned before, a small scratch on the body. It was there when i opened the box for the first time. I know that some parts are easy to scratch. I found 2 posts on FB group describing the same situation at the same place and side of the figure.

Many thanks for the info, I'll give that a try!
