It still baffles me why they gave RS a smaller base than patriot, especially considering how much bigger he is
I was just thinking that actually, I think he's supposed to have only one foot on the base, maybe thats why

Got mine on Monday. Took him out, put his gun on, just a basic standing strait armed pose and put him in the Detolf
until I had more time. Just took him out earlier this morning to spend some time checking him out. Oh No! There is
a silver inner piece broken off and rattling around inside the right shoulder. That and the outer shoulder guard is very loose.
Didn't notice that when I first removed him. A definite problem. I'll be in touch with SSC on Monday. Bummer! Hope there's
no problem getting a replacement. That would SUCK!

Amzing pics- just looks very very high quality!

I agree spindrift. Looks alone scream quality and I'm sure that impression will only increase once I have it in hand and feel the weight and craftsmanship. My first Iron Man figure was the Mark 7 and while it look great it always felt a little strange to be so light and plasticy. Normally I could care less about die cast but it's so appropriate for a suit made of metal.

I just got around to opening IP. It is crazy what a paint job does with the same type of suit. Beautiful paint by HT on this. I loved the Mark II WM, but wow does the red and blue pop on this figure. I if had to choose between the two I would definitely get this. Great figure. Good job HT.

Nice pictures.. Thanks for sharing. The colors look excellent in these pictures. I feel like WM would blend into my collection whereas this guy should really pop due to the vibrant paint scheme. I can't wait.

How long can you keep the lights on on your figure, before the LED starts dimming? It's highly annoying sometimes, mine goes up to 5 minutes before the lights start fading... bummer, we are in 2014 and we still haven't found a way around batteries, I know it's a scam either way lol.

They could always make plug & play figures but people might complain about the wires.

I'm still waiting for a remote to control the light up gimmicks.
Finally got to opening my IP this weekend. Few things to note:
The Hip flap on the right side does not sit flush against he body? Anyone else have this? On my WM MkII it sits perfectly flush.
The elbow protector on the left arm came broken, it was just sitting in the box. I can just crazy glue it in...but not what I was expecting for a $310 figure.
And of course, both headsculpts do not sit properly. I have already tried switching the magnets all different ways and nothing has helped it. Perhaps it could be the magnets in the headsculpt?

With the head piece, the only way to keep my straight is to bring it up a little higher. Not sure if that's the right look, but following the instructions in the booklet on where to put the two top side magnets doesn't work. Just slide it back a bit further, and it should be good. I'll try to take pics later.

Personally I would contact SS or whomever you purchased it from. If the figures were $150 then I would deal with QC issues but not at $300+
I've drafted up the email already but I wanted to get the boards opinion on things like the hip etc. Like I said, I can easily glue in the elbow guard...but then why did I pay $310? I love these figures and I love this hobby but they really need to up their quality control. I know things can happen, but things seem to happen way too often for me considering the prices of these figures.
