Don't you be ____ing with me man...

I've been wanting an Iron Monger so bad, my heart won't be able to take it if this isn't true.

 

[darren1228]

It is a custom project.

 

[JonWes]

Yep, just a custom. For one thing, the head would have to be MUCH bigger (in relation to the finished head you can see) to be in scale. I hope this happens... in the lull between Iron Man 2 and Avengers.

 

[Vaako]

i'm pretty sure one day hot toys will make one because the whole iron man line is just gold for them

 

[azurepred]

they made a tumbler, so it would only make sense

 

[darren1228]

I really doubt it. The tumbler did not sell that well and was plagued with manufacturing problems. Iron Monger is also not that popular. The fact that the movie was released 3 years ago doesn't help either.

 

[Marvel-ous]

Well, let me tell ya: if HT makes an Iron Monger, I will gladly pay $500 for it.

Just so they know.

Well I wouldn't and I'm sure I'm not in the minority.

 

[Empir3]

I would buy one idk if i would spend 500 depends on how big it really wound up being.

 

[Biojex]

I'd buy one if it came with a Jeff Bridges figure.

I have no doubt HT can make this happen if they want to. Movie being 3 years old does not matter in my opinion, It's popular enough and the sequel just came out. How old is Blade 2 and they just came out with a figure, and from the look at some sites, are selling good. They gambled on ED-209 and sold out, Ripley and Powerloader, sold out, batpod may not be sold out every where yet but has become a bit more scarce. Tumbler, I hear ya on that one, but I did buy one. But I also do not believe it would cost $500, maybe $399 max. Plus they can make it a limited release like they did on the v2. TDK OC Bats.
Hot Toys, just get it done!!!!!!!!!

 

[minivader]

didn't HT already said they are done with IM1?

 

[JonWes]

No, I think last we'd heard they were still open to the Monger. I don't know if the Tumbler is the best test of the Iron Monger's possibilities. To me, there's a big difference between a huge vehicle and a huge figure. I know myself I'd be less likely to buy a vehicle. But if they could get an Iron Monger figure done for about $350 - $400... I'd buy it.

 

[Kuzeh]

That's a custom,
and I remember HT said in an interview that they weren't doing anymore IM 1 figures...

 

[PapitoMX]

Iremember they said that before, then BD Mk3 was announce, then Test Mech Tony. Who knows if they will really be done with IM1.

didn't HT already said they are done with IM1?

Whatever happened to that one company that had a prototype of an ironmonger? it was 1/6 scale. too lazy to search it, but it looked good!

 

[sloaner]

I would pay 300 but not 500. I will be happy if they make some of those bots from the new movie

I will be buying their products as well. Awesome.

Chen was already asked his question. It seems he would love it to be true but I think their experience with the Tumbler is making them wary.
