Yeah Tony didn't explain its need or upgrades or anything. Just kind of appeared

Kinda like the mk7 in that just appeared. Or the 30 hpp armors in screen time. Not a cool suit up shown but otherwise.. I think at some point it's ok to stop explaining why he has a new armor. It's what he does. And given that every armor he wears gets destroyed in a fight (or close) it's pretty reasonable he has at least one back up and if I was choosing between the 43 and 45 and they did the same (all his standard suits have pretty much the same functions) I can understand picking the 45. To me it's like a change of a shirt, I don't need them to explain that or give this huge back story. Already know what it does and why he changed.

Nah I don't need an explanation or big reveal, not really what I meant...just saying that it just took part in the closing sequence and didn't do anything exciting...lol the HPP armors are nothing more than just drones to me...but if I was to link 1 armor with the AOU it would be the 43 and not the 45

43 opening sequence, sentry mode scene, 1 on 1 fight with Ultron, HulkBuster.

45 closing sequence, big blast from chest...

Idk the 45 was cool looking but can't buy up
All the armors so I'll stick personally with the 43
 
cannot wait to get this guy, love my 42 and i will love my 43, even got the 1/4th on PO....i really couldnt care less for the 45....it was rather forgeattable in the film...lol

Agreed. It's stylish enough that it isn't forgettable to me, but I prefer to see a new suit introduced with some purpose. You imagine that Stark is slaving away for weeks/months designing and upgrading each new armor, so when they're introduced on screen it'd be nice to know what new upgrades he poured into them.
 
I'm excited for Friday. I'll be assembling the full team from AOU and this will be the first piece. I'll be skipping the Mark 45, so my finished display will be slightly inaccurate. Whatevs. Will also be skipping the Ultron Sentries, Iron Legion, War Machine Mark II & Ultron Prime (waiting for Ultimate Ultron).

What we have so far

Its nuts that from the team members they've allowed me to PO I've already amassed $1500 in POs with SSC. By the time Thor, Wanda & Pietro are up for PO it will be at $2200. Madness.

The only figure besides Hulkbuster I'll buy from this line is Ulysses Klaw - if they make one. Doubtful.

I actually calculated it out...big mistake :lol would be much happier not knowing how much money I'm throwing at this line
 
No email for me either, but I'm on flex. Kinda wondering why SSC doesn't ask me if I want to finish paying it and have it shipped.

You can email them and ask to pay it off early

:exactly:
You have to let them know if you want it early, they're not gonna email everyone on flex to see if they want it early.
But I've done this before where I was on flex, and told them I want it, and they shipped it that day.
 
Looking at those numbers, I'm glad I don't have an urge to collect a whole Avengers lineup. Or rather, my bank account is glad.

I also cancelled my EX preorder, so someone from the waitlist should be getting a conversion.

Yea that is just the hero lineup, not too mention the villain lineup LOL. That is the price for getting into the hobby, and I only have starlord. So a long road ahead
