Finally got around to unboxing mine...Really cool figure, but I have 2 questions...
1. Anyone else have a problem with him keeping his arm up while using the flame accessory?...Can't keep his arm up, keeps flopping down...Doesnt appear broken, but flame wants to flop down when put on his arm...
2. How do the lights work...I opened the battery chamber and removed the clear tape around the batteries...but when I push the button on, nothing happens...Is there something else I need to remove?...
Thanks...

After posting this it was pissing me off how I've never really enjoyed this figure so went straight upstairs, spent some time with the figure, reposed him and now I love him, funny how that happens
If you are referring to the clear sleeve around the batteries, that's not supposed to come off.
It's there to stop the outside terminals of the batteries from touching things they shouldn't....

Thanks, Barry...I finally figured out the battery thing...And it looks like I have a slightly loose elbow joint on the flame arm...anyone else have a problem keeping his arm up while using the flame?...keeps wanting to droop...

Last two or three reviews I've read for this figure have made a point to mention that the flame accessory is heavy and will cause the arm to droop.

Same here.
Bought this guy for $194. SSC currently has a $25 off for Valentine. For those that want to pick up a figure, might want to order one now! Code is Valentine2013.

I saw that review by Jeff also...shame that it's problem that I guess will have to be lived with, as the flame is a neat way to pose him...Ah well, still an awesome figure...Detailing on the suit is incredible...

Still diggin' this one....
Got this guy in the mail today and I have a question. Right out of the box, when I click the button, the light doesn't turn on for his chest and arm. Now when I open the battery portion, there's a piece of clear plastic around it. Do I need to take it off in order for it to work? I know the other Mark suits have a similar clear plastic tab but no where in the instructions does it indicate to pull it off.

I believe all plastic tabs must be removed.
Thank you. There were two tabs within the canister.

That same thing freaked me out when I got mine. I thought I broke it trying to get it to light up.
Yup! I was frustrated and thought I got a defective one. I don't understand why they don't address it in the instructions.

I wish they would learn to make these attachments hollow or light the same goes for Thor's Hammer sure it looks good and is nice and the diecast is nice but for posing its not practical as it causes the arm to fall or even the body
I have a friend who is a very talented model maker and one of his specialities is using expanding foam around a pre-built frame to make an explosion.
Of course among his many talents is the ability to then paint this expanding bubble of foam to look like an *in-progress* explosion.
I have often thought this would look incredible if applied to the flame jets on the MKI Iron Man.
