1/6 Hot Toys - MMS 237D06 - Iron Man 2: 1/6th scale Whiplash Mark II Collectible Figure

Congrats. I think more and more people, like me, will be kicking themselves for not picking this up, considering the deals we've already seen on it and especially after the diecast Mark VI is unveiled.

Well, this finally came in today! It's my first Hot Toys and I'm super excited. Its really great to look at. The one thing I knew going in, but am still sort of disappointed at, is that the batteries seem to make the light really bright at first and then after a little while it simmers down and becomes more dull. This is most noticeable in the eyes, but I haven't seen it too much in the arc reactor/neck/back. The wrist lights are dull as expected.







Really happy with him overall, just curious if I should bother trying different batteries.

Different battery's make a huge difference.

Got this guy for Christmas. What an incredible figure! Can't wait to pair him up with War Machine Mk1 and hopefully a diecast Mk6 one day

 

[YankeesFanboy]

Awesome pics. Repped.

Added luminescent wire. The figure is so well designed that you only need to route it though the existing areas where the wire should have come though and boom, this figure really shines.

 

[YankeesFanboy]

Outstanding work. Repped.

I've been telling people this is the best figure of 2015

 

[Motuxmen]

It's hard to beat. One of the cooler figures they have made period, IMO.

I definitely has some shelf presence among my other marvel figures

 

[Motuxmen]

Yea for me, it just reminds me of a modern take on medieval armor. I have no problem displaying it with my historical figures and it fits in, oddly enough. Or with my DC stuff. It's pretty universal.

Six months ago I had about half my hot toys collection out for some check ups and play time with my daughter and when everyone say it the whiplash mk2 was almost always picked as a fav.

That is an excellent mod!

But how long does that luminescent wire last? Isn't it that glo-stick stuff that fades in a few hours?

No. Electroluminescent wire:

el wire has a longer lifespan then standard led and light bulbs. It's amazing stuff. I've been using it for ten years. I still have the first sample kit I ordered in 2004 and it still looks new. It's just recently started to catch on a bit.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Awesome! That's the ticket then!
