Hot Toys – MMS132 - Iron Man 2: Mark VI full spec and pics

[mikesgtrs]

hmm that's weird .

Everyone I spoken to would rather get a MK7or the new Ironman 3 versions.

Ive seen a few regular MK6's go for 300- 400 second hand on ebay in the last few months and also on Gumtree.

I was just saying you do get people that will try to lower the price way down to 250 or lower.

I take my earlier comment back LOL lets not start an argument here.

This.

Mark VI is incredibly sought after and hasn't been near $300 on the secondary market in a long time.

Lol i duno where that guys from but welcome to the future

put it this way , last week , I purchased mine for 350.00 boxed complete and it only had the pink pantie issue which I fixed. There's a few others for about 400 on Australia ebay and also gumtree -- I just noticed that people are starting offload there MK6's now so they get the newer ones , I have spoken to these people and that's their plan- they might not be forum members here but they are regular people who would rather trade in or sell their MK6's im not imagining it .I have even seen a MK7 I kid you not go for 300.00. People are dropping the prices down everywhere. The only MK6 ive seen lately go for 1000.00 was the avengers exclusive version. I have seen a few MK6's in Hong Kong recently go for 750.00 but ive mostly seen them go for anywhere between 300-500 second hand. Mint in box different story.

Peace guys

I can't speak for Aussie but for US eBay the Mark VI has held it's value hovering around $500 for months. As of this moment there's one taking bids currently at $385+$12 shipping= $397 and that has 2 days left until the auction ends. The next cheapest Mark VI auction starts at $485.

If you see this set complete for $300 or less please shoot me a PM b/c I'd probably jump on it.

 

[mikesgtrs]

yeah see 382.00 + shipping is about an average price for it here too. Not saying that the figure will sell for that price though.

I'll let you know if I see any cheap MK6 here ill have a look today and post the links.

Ive seen them go for about the 300-400 price range . I must of been lucky then to get one for 350 here if they are more in the USA.

Cheers

Mark IV is rarer or mark vi?

Mark IV is rarer or mark vi?

theyve both had 2 versions, Id say IM2 mk 6 is the most valuable (BD parts)

 

[Hydeous]

But the avenger movie promo ver mark vi is more expensive? The irony

 

[Y4NK33 PL4N3T]

Rarity I think Avengers 6.

 

[LipSmack]

But the avenger movie promo ver mark vi is more expensive? The irony

I think thats because there were lessAND they were numbered... but the IM 2 version is a wayy better deal

 

[dms54nyc]

Looks like if you missed a mark vi you arent getting one for under $500. Oh well [shrugs]

 

[LipSmack]

I have one left, and the BD arm is well... BD'd.

 

[mikesgtrs]

there was one MK6 going on ebay for 350.00 a few days ago - its probably gone now .

Heres a bigger pic of mine with the pink pantie issue fixed

How much demand is the IM2 version getting? Thinking of quitting the 1/6th game.

 

[Y4NK33 PL4N3T]

Great job Mike!

I just spent half the day bugging Barry for advice and now my panties are on the drying rack

 

[mikesgtrs]

thanks mate yours looks great too mate cheers - probably better than mine mine had a few small air bubbles - I might redo mine again -

 

[mikesgtrs]

don't really want to go into another debate about prices on MK6 but from what ive seen on ebay the prices can either be cheap one day or expensive the next . - Seen one go for 350 a few days ago , then I see others going for 600+ . I know how you feel about prices on / lately , ive purchased many hot toy /sideshow figures . The problem is you buy one that you wanted for ages, then when you get it starts to wear off quickly . When I purchased MK 7 avengers Iron man I was excited . after a week I was bored with it . Probably because I bought DX09 batman in the same week and I felt more warmed to batman than the iron man --
