Mine just shipped from AE. Wasn’t expecting that already. Perfect timing after finishing Christmas shopping. Oh well. Nice big expensive Christmas gift to myself.

My waitlist converted. I think Im going to keep it. Was having second thoughts but its just to awesome to let it go.

Anyone else have their wait list convert out side of these two lucky SOB's! lol

Finally had some time to get mine set up and spent maybe 20 min with it. I’m still moving, so I don’t have the display set up yet, but I’m happy with Hulkbuster so far.

Looks like you articulated the legs a bit, any tips?

Got my tracking number from Timewalker an hour ago...... so hulkbuster is slowly inching its way to mi casa

I put it flat on the couch and then bent the knees. You need to use force, but too much force or it goes several clicks, and the armor behind the legs can fall off (light switch panel). I haven’t fully figured out the limits of the ankles, so I need to play around a bit more. On the back of the feet there are two adjustable “toes” that can be moved around for stability, similar to Iron Monger. I think a more dynamic pose may be possible if I can get more movement fore and aft in the ankles...I just didn’t have enough time to play around with it because I’m mid-move.

Honestly I didn’t find it too hard to pose or set up HB. I guess practice with other Hot Toys, and having a ton of high end Chogokin (Japanese metal robots) may have helped.

So went to my buddy’s house saw him and person. Ran to my LCS and picked up this bad boy. Wow, pics don’t do it justice.

I noticed on mine under the foot armor (flap), the front surface of the gold metal arm has some black marks on it though I cant tell if this is weathering or scuff/rub marks.

I haven’t really messed with articulating the feet so I don’t believe these are paint rub marks. Can anybody confirm if this is normal weathering?

Someone posted pics of those marks awhile back and mine has them also. I think it's just how the covers sit on them. I can't see them so i haven't worried about it.

Hi Chris are you selling those displays?

Hi mine has these and so do several other people I know for a total of 8 I know of having this issue. It sucks they needed to protect it better for shipping or right agter it was painted .

Fortunately as Subzro mentioned earlier, its in a place you cant visibly see all the time.

Though it does kind of suck knowing its there.

Guess its something to keep an eye out for when articulating the feet.

When I was watching Optibotimus’s review on the Hulkbuster, I notice he had it in the same exact spot on the right foot.

Quick pic with the 46 will fully assemble tomorrow.

Cancelled my converted waitlist order, so one spot opened up for someone else.

Thanks I appreciate it that base looks epic

The dimensions I got were 23" tall (with helmet closed), 19" wide (with one arm click out instead of flat to the sides) and 10" deep. This is the bare minimum I'd recommend for a space. He JUST fit in my stand, I was worried about the for size.

Here is a picture of me holding this beast, keep in mind, I'm 6'2. Amazing figure, couldn't be happier with it.
