Your use of the English language makes my brain hurt.

The use of English is not the hardest part about understanding Moose's posts, it's trying to believe that he is serious.

He's just new and unknown to a lot of things, he'll get there.

Well despite my poor English, the point is still valid this prototype is too similar to what hot Toys is making and this pic was taken more then a year before we even saw the Hot toys prototype in January of this year. I curious if they bought them out as the link to their company website is not working.

Old proto picture is old. Wasn't that discussed to death in the 1st Monger thread? Put a fork in it, it's done.

To be fair, the proto DID fit a full figure inside. Got give them props for that!

So the similarity between these figures owes more to the premiere manufacturer of high-end action figures ripping off another company's prototype and buying out that company to produce their figures than the fact that the companies were working off the same source material? Hmm, that's so crazy it might just work.

Next week we'll be discussing the moon landing conspiracy.

What moon landing? It never happened

Yeah I remember stumbling onto that pic when I 1st joined the board and found the initial Monger thread.

Now that I think about it, it's ASSUMED a whole figure fits inside it… but does it actually? The same thing was assumed of the HT version until they said it wasn't the case.

But not to worry, HT will do a whole figure next time with the re-issue.

I'm actually not sure it's physically possible. Even in the movie the suit kind of doesn't make sense how the body fits into the suit.

I'd take the HT version anyday

 

[jayveeeusebio]

I'd take the HT version anyday

No contest here.

 

[dsokyra]

So they can make this monster but still no Hulk?! HT is gonna have to step up after Avengers is released...the absence of a Hulk figure will really be obvious then...

 

[Y4NK33 PL4N3T]

What does Iron Monger have to do with Hulk?

Size and non standard parts.

 

[LipSmack]

Size and non standard parts.

How do you mean?

 

[Lejuan]

^ each part will have to be made from scratch and no part will be able to be used in any other figure.

 

[LipSmack]

oh ok isee what is being said,

 

[Centrocal]

^ each part will have to be made from scratch and no part will be able to be used in any other figure.

Thats exactly why they have to re-release Iron Monger later on at some point. They can't just throw the mold away.
