What sort of question is that? Why shouldn't anyone here doubt anything? Because unless it has been confirmed, who's to know? Two people have raised a question mark of whether the boots were actually removable or not, and I bet others would be interested to know for sure, one way or the other. Not that it would deter anyone from buying it, in any case. Do you see any pictures of him without them? darren 1228 has shown another piece of the puzzle, but the script needs translation to know for certain if there is any indication as to why the boots were pictured separately.
It's a great figure, but as always when Hot Toys shows initial pictures the fan boys swoon. There needs to be some balance and healthy skepticism. It's not the greatest or best Ironman figure yet. What are the shoes for? The extra hands don't look all that different from the ones the figure already has. Their both sets of open palmed hands. It doesn't have that many accessories. A cardboard backdrop, robot arm, hands and shoes. What so great about that? The robot arm. The best thing is the greatly improved but not perfect head sculpt. The clear pole for the stand will undoubtedly be the same as what other companies have provided and be very brittle.
It's a great addition to the Ironman range, but unless we get some confirmation as to what is removable we may be stuck with the figure as it is. Either posed in mid air or not. Everyones display being almost the same. Of course, people will customize the figure in order to get a greater range of poseable options and figure variations, but straight from the box it's going to be limited.
