2015 Summer Exclusive

[zackhigh1226]

Blue Steel would be hot. I swear, playing catch up sucks when all these new armors keep coming out. [emoji38]

I feel your pain. Truly, I do. It's quite the financial adventure.

The Hot Toys page on Facebook just officially announced its participation in STGCC 2015, and it confirmed the premiere and pre-order of exclusive figures from both Iron Man and Star Wars!

This is the teaser image they posted on Facebook:



Now to speculate if it means anything. Looks like the MKIII to me... a MKIII variant, perhaps? Or just a stock "Iron Man" image to promote the event? XD

The image definitely looks like the Mark III to me as well. I'm hoping one of two things. (1) This actually turns out to be an image of the Mark II (which is basically the Mark III without the paint job, right?) and we get a diecast Mark II, or (2) it's a stock image like you suggested and we get something like Blue Steel.

I dunno, I think the MKII Unleashed is pretty solid. I'd be happy with Blue Steel (or any new HPP release) or a really nice new Gunmetal MKIII with red eyes/reactor

I'm with you...I'd be happy with any HPP armor to be honest! Blue Steel just seems like the most obvious choice since it's just a repaint of Silver Centurion. Not to mention a prototype of it was shown last year, but it was never released. Now's the chance for them to finally release what they teased!

Hmmm, blueish tones, red LED's on what looks like a Mark 3? Could it be the stealth variant that was shown ages ago?

 

[Edub]

It better not be a battle damaged variant or I would be pissed considering I just bought the Diecast mk3

 

[Jessedart]

Dam...id take this stealth over my overpriced impossible to see recent version.

 

[zackhigh1226]

Agreed. Don't get me wrong...I like the Mark 3 as much as the next guy, but they literally just released the regular Mark 3. I'm really hoping it's something a little more exciting, like Blue Steel or some other HPP armor.

I'm with you...give me a diecast Mark 4 or 6!

I'm pretty sure my overwhelming excitement would cause me to faint if a diecast Mark 6 were announced for the exclusive.

 

[Chiefrocka]

I would love to see something new. Not a repaint (blue steel), they can save that for last. To echo everyone else, a new hpp armor Like disco

 

[zackhigh1226]

If it's a completely new armor that we're talking about, I vote Nightclub...with the color scheme shown in the movie and not the completely black color scheme in the concept design.

 

[mikelofty]

They wouldn't do a IV, VI OR V diecast as an exclusive.... To large a potential market to limit the model

100th post!!!

 

[Minimodel]

Plastic Enemies have been heavily teasing the Mark 15 recently.....

 

[duo_maxwell_1017]

Plastic Enemies have been heavily teasing the Mark 15 recently.....

I would happily accept that.

Ooooo...Sneaky would be a really good one too!

 

[MarvelZombie]

Oooooo, Sneaky would be an instant order for me. Who we kidding, pretty much any armor will be a must buy for me. I've got a full blown addiction now.

Sneaky would be sick though.
