My Starboost finally turned up yesterday (it had a bit of a delay), very nice figure & it's now replaced Iron Patriot on my main display shelf & completes my line up (for now).

Congrats on picking up this awesome figure. Just be careful not to scrape the paint. Paints wears off easily on starboost

I e-mailed CSC a few days ago. Still no word. Hmmm...

Thanks. I'm always careful with these figures really, I find a museum type pose that I like & then put them up on display..., I've put Starboost in between Silver Centurion & Hot Rod, it certainly stands out amoungst the crowd though..., very happy with it.

I never even bothered to use the poseable hands cuz of all the things i hear about the paint rubbing off. Right now, I just got Starboost, Silver Centurion and Tony Stark (mechanic). Taking a hiatus from all the excessive shopping but I've got the new War Machine 2.0 (AoU edition) on preorder.

I might be interested in this one if they drop the price to $180-ish.

I usually like to use the movable fingers (hands), sometimes I don't use them though..., for a change. I did however use them on Starboost as I had to remove the hands on it because of the protective plastic on the wrists, I figured I may as well put them on after taking the others off. I've still got 8 Iron Man figures on preorder plus Hawkeye, I'd like Ultron mark I & at least 1 Iron Legion figure but then I think I'll call it a day..., unless the mark 45 is too good to pass up. lol

Still waiting on HT to announce their mk45. And we know they're gonna do it so there's no reason for the holdup.

I'm guessing that they are waiting on clearing the stock of the Mark 43.

Mark 43 selling out will be the best thing to happen to me. I really don't need the temptation to buy it since I want to get hulkbuster and just one of the other armors from this line ... 45 looks like a winner.

No doubt it will be..... hence the rush out the door on this armor

There's plenty of reasons.

Ditto. I wish the refund code worked on this figure.

Some of you may remember a few pages back I put pictures up of a faulty arm (plastic damage). An update on that: Lee at Collectibles Direct was briliant and replaced it with no problems. I can now enjoy the figure and today I put the batteries in for the first time. He's realy impressive when lit up!

 

[ScottPSU]

Lad to hear they took care of you. Your Starboost looks excellent. Great pics and poses!

Great pics Flintty

 

[Flintty]

Thanks both. He is a great figure but I do have a minor complaint that the paint seems easy to come off in places, mostly around joints. They're not major but I know they're there and I'm so careful with my figures for fear of damaging, I don't know how it happened.

That aside, he's pretty damn awesome.
