Going waiting for a ship notice from AE.

Anyone heard anything from them yet!?!?!

 

[Geil]

Kinda hidden away but you get the idea

People will get these from Sideshow before they get shipped from AE.

Hot Toys signed a contract with Santa's Elves

The retailers sell them on page 3, you never go to page 3 do you

That pic really emphasizes the fact that I shouldn't have taken my sweet time to pick up a Mark II.

Some Mk. IV Problems (Apart from people breaking the air-break's hinge)...
Not My PICs

from:
https://www.toysdaily.com/discuz/thread-142505-1-2.html

Tabs/Marks left behind, not properly sanded/painted

Missing heel armour

Left Flaps that does not sit well... mis-alignment...

Paint peel of the neck connector...

 

[ThorsThunder]

Yikes Id be sending that one back! Hope that isnt common

 

[jye4ever]

Maybe Sideshow Collectibles painted that one Iron Man as a favor for HT

^ ^^ Those PICs are not from One Mk.4... but from at least 3 retail units.. My copy share more than just one of the problems though.

 

[bandito]

^ Attributed to lack in QC and not waiting for paint to properly dry before assembling, or lack of pre-caution step.

Missing parts ... QC and design (parts easily falls off)

Misalignment ... QC and design too... multiple parts moulded apart will be hard to assemble and QC

 

[Geil]

I just checked mine and the back is not perfect but not too bad. I bend the knee and returned back to straight position and the knee "cap" fell off. Glued back but I be more careful

 

[jutty]

......... so about these MKIV issues i hope there not widespread

 

[Balrog]

So far if I'm not mistaken two people recently in this thread received their MKIV from ebay seller loontentoys from Hong Kong, has anyone else?

I'm hoping now that the holidays are over the rest of his pre-orders will be going out this week. I'd love to wake up to a EMS shipping notice email tomorrow...

I've just had a nice chat with Loontentoys via messaging.

Mine was sent 2 days ago so I should be getting it soon.

He was telling me about how Hot Toys releases the figures in batches, the first batch is about 10% of the whole stock.

This is done for recall purposes, and if there is a probably Hot Toys changes the next batch but Loontentoys and other companies lose lots of cash. Which is why we who buy from Loontentoys and other Ebay sellers get it a bit later.

He said that sometimes he has to send out from the first batch because people hassle him lol but he really doesn't like to do that for the above reason.
