If all turns out well , i'm gonna recieve my war machine today.
Looking forward for him , it's gonna be my first HT figure

You wont regret him as I bought mine less than 3 weeks ago, very massive and huge shelf presence. Cheers!!

Just out of interest are the eye lights as bright as the chest reactor now?

I werent able to see any difference. But to be honest I havent really concentrated on that issue. I have already removed all batteries...
After having seen the batteries on Iron Man and War Machine I have my Ghost Rider and Batman on my desk for today evening. How could I have been so stupid to keep any of these batteries in the figures...

I switched out the batteries and the lights were perfectly working. Thanks for the tip again. Figure is now perfect. Already removed all the batteries. I also found it useful to buy a set like this. All these screws needed a quality screwdriver set.

Do you guys have a $1.00 store there??? They sell sets here with 12 little screwdrivers for $1.00.

Thanks for all the input - Sometimes all it takes is a little push...





War machine arrives in a few days! Looking forward to it!

Just realised that means I have to source another hall of armour base. Drat!

Yes we do have those stores, but I always tend to destroy the screws with those cheap material screwdrivers.

Still need to get those decals. Did already send the guy who sold them a PM but he never came back to me. Is he still around?

Anyone think Hot Toys will make another War Machine with the next movie? I'm trying to work out whether to buy it now or not. It doesn't seem like it could get much better though. I know these things are always succeptible to re-releases or improved versions, but just wondering if anyone thinks we'll see another WM??

Depending on his role in IM3, I think the chances are very high. But you'll have to wait over 2 more years... Lol

Is he supposed to have an instruction manual? Got a used one off the marketplace and I'm terrified I'll break him. I can't even figure out how to open his battery slot in his back. Any chance someone can scan theirs?

 

[Joeyrainbow]

finally got a war machine today - wow! I am very impressed with this figure. now I get why people love it.

The sheer number of moving parts is incredible, and it so detailed. Very very impressed with it, and now totally see why this thing was a figure of the year! Anyone one else umming and aahing - go for it!

If noone did until the weekend, I can do it by Saturday. But I will have to go to my parents for the scanner.

Get it! I bit the bullet a few weeks back now and haven't regretted it one bit, it looks even more awesome in hand. Now I'm on the verge of getting the Mark IV as well. I just need to figure a way of getting it delivered without my wife knowing.

 

[TotalDominAsian]

Sigh... Need to replace the batteries in the neck. Searched this topic and the easiest way is to apparently pull out the neck. Uhh any tips? Thing won't come out!

Hit the gym!

 

[TotalDominAsian]

Is it a front to back motion or a side to side wiggle?

So frustrating! Not to mention after I get it off, I have to freak out and worry about stripping the screw.

 

[Y4NK33 PL4N3T]

Neither front/back or wiggle, just pull it up toward the sky

If it's that snug you can run a warm blow dryer over it to help loosen it up a bit

Just push it forward...you'll have enough room

Picked this guy up yesterday and its a really nice piece! I was only gonna get the Avengers from the movies but I couldn't resist this one.

I have all my shipments delivered to a buddy's house who's wife is way more nerd tolerant than my own.

Don't worry about using undue force to pop the neck post off, it's a ball and socket joint so you'd have to be doing something very wrong to break it. But do be careful with the screw. For starters use the right screwdriver. Even then, if it's like mine, you can easily round the head if the screw is held fast. I stopped short of rounding the screw head completely and took it in to an optometrist, who was able to get the screw out for me.
