Somewhat off topic, but I had a meeting up near LAX today and just happened to drive by this place. HAD to get a photo.

This figure, holy ****. Probably the most fun I've had setting up a figure and going through poses and different accessory combinations. If you're on the fence about a Tony figure, this is the one you want. Get it now.
 
Good news everyone!
I received my Tony head and MK42 poseable repulsor hands today(My two full figures from SS will be here in a few days, but the head arrived first).
With people posting about the head sitting low on other necks, i had a look and the ball joint plug up in the head sculpt is placed about 5mm higher than a normal head(Compared to the MKIV head, and others i have here). This means that other heads might sit too high on the 191 body/neck and also that a little bit of finagling might be needed to get this head looking right on another body.
BUT... Because it's got more room in the head than before, i popped the head into a cup of boiling water and left it there for a few minutes, and as it was softened, i was able to get it onto the armoured necks of the suits without using a neck and the adaptors(The necks would just look too low anyway).
Some look better than others, but that's likely just down to the fact that the head is pushed down further on some marks than the other ones. The MKII in particular has the had too high, but i can do that one again later.
Here are some images(Sorry for the vanilla poses. If anyone wants a specific pose on a specific mark, just let me know):

Not just you. The head looks big on all the armors, except for maybe the VII.

It's maybe my iPhone.
It looks GREAT in front of my eyes. But the iPhone lens adds a distortion around the edges of frame that i can't seem to correct(I took maybe fifteen of each mark with that head on, and couldn't capture it accurately the way my eyes see it!).
I still reckon it's the best head they have done so far.
 
Anyone has issue with the goggles glass on Tony's head? I am having hard time to line it up properly. So, the left eye can show through the glass. According to the menu, the back of the goggles supposes to be in the ear level.

Anyone can line up the glass on the left eye while keeping the goggles on the ear level?

Could be that you just need to put it in hot water and reshape it. It may have gotten deformed.
 
So just the ex versions shipped on this one(don't recall if there was one) or are we just waiting on more shipments? Haven't gotten a shipping confirm yet.

If you ordered from SSC I think you should have gotten an e-mail by now, unless you literally ordered in the last week. I ordered mine back in July and it arrived yesterday, so it can't be too much longer if you ordered after that.

They're waiting for a second shipment. They only got a small portion which is why they have yet to offer early processing.
