Got my copy today. The concerns about QC definitely worry me, but for me it's outweighed by how awesome this guy looks. Love it. Arm joint looks OK based on a quick check, but I'm definitely going to be gentle with the poses. Some shots to share

I wish there was a sticker set or something to apply to the eyes, reactor and blasters to make him appear powered on without actually using the light up gimmick. He looks awesome powered on but most of us won't leave him displayed with all the lights on.

Loving all the great pic of this much anticipated figure. The QC issues are an issue though I do wonder about how rough folks are with their figures?!
It's very odd the joints are plastic and not metal. I am finally getting familiar with Iron Patriot and the joints are plastic on him too.
How are folks enjoying the heft to these diecast figures? To me it really feels like you are getting more bang for your buck with the heavier weight and feels less like a toy ya know?!

thats true, they feel more expensive, but they really arent worth as much as they charge

Totally agree. It feels like a higher end figure but the price is ludicrous. Should be $260 at the most

$309 is way too much money for any 12" figure I agree, but when they're charging $285 for a barebones plastic iron man...this figure seems like a great bargain in the bang-for-the-buck department.

Here's an unedited photo taken from my phone:
If IP can pose like this, I have no doubt the 42 can!
The only improvement they need for the articulations IMO is the head extension. Otherwise, it's perfect!

Breadstickman, that looks helpful. So it's a matter of getting the chest as close to the left knee as possible, while angling the right leg out and back as far as possible.

Yeah & with the torso twisted to the left. The right leg needs to be in an angle. I see a lot pose with the R leg straight. That's not gonna get the R arm lower.

I don't see the obsession with the ground pound pose, it doesnt seem like the figure should be placed that way
