Careful there Rory, you are giving HT ideas to release a 24K gold foil plated Diecast Mark III for $1,000.00
The 'looking up' movement would have made him look so much more awesome!
Anyone know of the best chrome/gold model paint out there? I may repaint one of mine..
The best I can think of is making a cut on the base of the helmet at the back.

I understand people are upset about not getting the e-mail, but let's really get down to the brass tacks.
This figure was announced by Sideshow and it was going to be available sometime within two weeks of IM3 premiere stateside. Everyone who follows HT knows that figure launches occur sometime between 2-8PM (They close 8PM EST).
Armed with these facts, all you would have to do is check this board 1 time an hour or (7 times between 2-8PM). If this figure meant that much to you as a collector then I think with today's technology that is very little to ask of a person. Now for our friends out of the US they got screwed so even that would not have helped. Anyone else that is complaining about not getting e-mails has nobody to blame other than themselves. Yes, sideshow needs to get their **** together, but to blame that e-mail as to why you didn't get the figure is just passing the blame off yourself for not keeping up with the release. The figure sold out in 2 hours and I am 100% certain not all of the people that ordered it did because of an e-mail from sideshow.
Use it as a learning experience, the next time a figure is Exclusive and limited check this board 1 time an hour and you will not miss it.
A great summation of the order situation with this figure with great tips on how to make sure you get an exclusive figure the next time one is available.

Which is exactly what I did. I checked this board 3-4 times a day until I noticed someone posted the sale. I did receive the email too. But I didn't check the email until after my order was already secured. Basically, I want to thank the board members here for being so thorough in giving me the head's up.
They should've done it a long time back. Alongwith the 'repulsor' pose.
