1/6 Hot Toys - MMS344D15 - CA: Civil War - War Machine Mark 3

I do wish the colors popped more and weren't so dull. I do think overall it's a great armor but I still prefer the Mark I better.

The armour looks cool, something about the upper half of the helmet throwin me off. Probably those two huge grooves, meh.

Wonder if the small decals will come printed/painted sharp and clean? Being so small.

 

[Magic Chaser]

Love the armour. It has the bulk of the Mark 1 and the look of the Mark 2. The only thing missing is a giant rotary chain gun on his shoulder. The tiny laser gun is pathetic to be honest.

 

[Minimodel]

You could probably blame the Mouse for that.Would nt want little Timmy being frightened by the nasty guns.

More new footage and I still say War Machines colors are off (on the figure). But it's just a trailer, right?

 

[Motuxmen]

Why is his color off? Compared to what?

 

[Magic Chaser]

War Machine looks matte black in the trailers.

The announcements photos definitely has some blue tint going on the figure itself. It's what people are complaining about when they talk about the paintjob.

Now whether that blue tint is something that's actually there or not (photoshopped) is something we don't know.

I removed all trace of blue saturation from one of the photos and you can see the difference it makes. People want the later.

EDIT: Looked up photos from Toy Soul and the figure looks fine there.
The announcements photos definitely had blue hue added to it.

Ok so he was talking about comparing the figure to the trailer then? The way he worded it, it sounded like he was saying WM in the trailer was wrong.

I don't know about what was done with the promo pics for the figure, but from what I recall the figure itself at toy soul didn't have any blue tint to it. Looked matte grey/black. (Black-grey or dark grey or whatever color it's called lol)

That does look better, but still the darker grey should be much closer to black than the figure shows... I say this now because when I brought it up before the counter argument was that the lighting in the trailers was throwing off the color, but I have no reason to believe that's true anymore because every instance of WM Mark III is matte black/light silver except the HT figure... The figure without the blueish hue does look closer but the dark and light parts of the armor should contrast a lot more than the colors of the figure. I'm also aware that its just a prototype and it could change before then... But I really don't want to order the figure unless they get it right. I guess time will tell.

I don't know if it's been said already, but the only thing I'm concerned with is the color of his lights... why are they white in the promo pics if they are red in the movie?

I like the all red, was alway sad the MK 1 had only red eyes but a white reactor.

This will be THE WM in my collection.

I would have probably said the same thing if they weren't already coming out with a die-cast Mark I.
