Great review Justin I can’t wait to get my first Mark 1

[@JustinsCollection]

Nice!

[@IroNobsidian]

One of my favorite suits. It's so crude. I still get chills everytime it powers on for the first time, and how it kills the lights in the cave. Excellent usage of diecast on this, the whole thing feels and looks eerily real. I was surprised how light it was, which is good - I had concerns about how well the body underneath was going to withstand the weight over time, but now, I have none. The ankles are really nice and tight, too. The height is a bit of a problem, but personally, I don't really care about it too much. Definitely more accurate to RDJ himself, but I would've preferred if it scaled up with most of the rest. There are so many things I'd wanna comment on, but I also want to keep these comments on the shorter side, haha. Yet another slam dunk review, Justin!! Much appreciated.

[@JustinsCollection]

Agreed, it's got a vibe to it that I am so here for! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@NorskyWay]

Greta review as always Justin. One note though! Cross referencing with images from the movie, I actually think the smoother, less detailed metal finish is more accurate! I do agree the more detailed version looks a little bit better though.

[@JustinsCollection]

Could be! I never claimed the plastic was more accurate, just that I liked it better :P

[@andreworr4307]

That's an engineering masterpiece in 1 :6th scale,it's beautiful in its complexity,well done hot toys,great review Justin,I must have missed it when you released it though

[@JustinsCollection]

Noice!

[@DrDetfink]

Kind of a shame, the gauntlets are not die cast but it’s not a deal breaker. The detail is too good to pass. Also this figure literally represents the birth of the MCU. I missed out on the original mark I, I didn’t this time. I’m slowly plugging in all the gaps with Irom Man hot toy figures.

[@JustinsCollection]

Yep they're plastic and have all the surface detail like the plastic 2.0

[@elginG80]

Looks great, great review. I do think that die cast helmet is intended to be simply an incentive. Maybe that’s why some may find it lackluster.

[@JustinsCollection]

Yes it is

[@gv0808]

Thank you for not selling out on the SE I got it with a discount code two days ago in sideshow

[@spaulagain]

I believe Jon Favreau was actually in the suit in many of the scenes which also explains the "larger" perceived size. Also the diecast looks way better IMO, the other looks overdone and artificial.

[@JustinsCollection]

Really?

[@thaddeusdaruszka4994]

Jon was never in the suit. Lol. It was a rather large stuntman who wore the suit, which weighed around a few hundred pounds.

[@NightWinggl]

Wow, This review, actually has me stopping selling my Mark 1 2.0. Not sure I'll cancel the Diecast pre-order, but I might have one for the Hall of Armor, and one for a seperate display. Curious if there is a way to disconnect the servo, but keep the lighting.

[@JustinsCollection]

Glad I could help!

[@Computerfly]

I'm returning my diecast. We are happy with the 2.0. Better surface detail on the armor, better face paint on the portrait and no stupid cable to attach just to light it up.

[@judgeoftruth6058]

Just Google hall of armor iron man 2 the mark 1 is not that short Man 500 bucks for almost the same thing with less textures and no separate switch for that loud arse fan. Compare it to Mk4 MK5 MKVI MKVII warmachine MK1 diecast, they trashed all of their plastic versions, this one not so much. I say wait for a discount. We already know rdj isn't tall, we just want a consistent scale on the armors. Just give him a boost so he won't look ridiculous, I mean they already made all the die cast armors taller than they should be. And if u google hall of armor in iron man 2 mk1 isn't that short. Hot toys are not that accurate on the scale Look at mk50 and star lord, the mk50 towers over him yet in the film they were just about the same height. I said it before they won't make frodo figure with Elijah woods actual height they should make figures based on what it was shown in the film Also compare the heads of this mk1 it's clearly smaller than any diecast Tony headsculpt. Btw try switching out the MKV suit up race track tony head with this one it looks good 👍 oh and the reason it's a little taller because the hinge/helm just sits higher now

[@JustinsCollection]

Thanks for watching and the in depth comment. Not a bad idea with that racing suit head!

@@JustinsCollection Hii. Look it up on the Internet. I'm sure you'll know which one it is the moment you see it.

[@justinnakatsuka7813]

I would bet that the back wheel can be disconnected. I had problems with the lights on The Bat and traced it back to micro connectors, which I'm betting are also utilized in this suit and can be disconnected without damage. I guess I'll find out when I get mine from Sideshow sometime in the next two years.

Is the die cast really better? Well if you’re like me and the die cast is your first and only mark 1 you’ll ever own, then it absolutely is! Really looking forward to getting this one in!

Depends what you're after

[@masanorihiraoka3087]

the 3 cool things you mentioned about this, the plastic one have all of those too 😆 this is a fail by hot toys. Size,detail,no separate switch for the fan,too many reused parts and the price. A total failure like they didnt even care. This is a Mark 1, 2.5 than a 3.0

[@JustinsCollection]

Fair!

[@wiljohn2011]

I have all three versions in my collection. Diecast my be too clean but definitely an improvement and less fragile.

[@JustinsCollection]

For sure less fragile

[@ilikemandalorians9861]

Wow this guy’s a beast 😱 Also, I have a question about the format of the review: why is there no segment where you talk about the price/value for money and such? I watch reviews on various different topics and I notice that part of the discussion is missing here but not in other, shall we say, industries. Not that it makes much difference to me, but it’s an interesting choice

[@JustinsCollection]

He is. For a few reasons, number 1, depending on where you buy him the price varies drastically. For example down here in Australia he costs double what he does elsewhere. So would I judge him based on my price or someone else's? Also everyone is old enough to ascertain value themselves, what is worth it to one person may not be to others

[@ilikemandalorians9861]

@@JustinsCollection that’s eminently reasonable, thanks! 😊

[@TheSpookiestSkeleton]

if you don't want that helmet I'll take it off yer hands, that cave escape impacted my child brain more than you can possibly imagine. Also the MK1 would stand a little taller than tony because of the sheer amount of metal he's wearing, giving him just a few extra inches. Maybe the die-cast struggled to have the paint adhere compared to the plastic which is why it's got less detail?

[@JustinsCollection]

Sorry I like to keep my figures complete

Looking forward to getting mine! I think I may be the only one that won’t mind the fan noise, haha. I was honestly anticipating it to be loud though cause it adds to the presence and raw nature of the suit. Plus, I personally wouldn’t see a reason to have it on if it was so quiet you couldn’t hear it. Especially with it being in the back 🤷🏽‍♂️ Great review as usual though!

2:53 I don't wanna be that guy but that's actually an EOtech 552 holographic sight or a similar variant.

Great detailed review. I don't do MCU figure even though IM is best MCU movie IMO. I don't own a HT die cast but the softer details has me concerned about AOTC C-3P0 a figure I do have interest in. If it turns out below par I don't mind I only buy one or two 1/6 a year.

[@JustinsCollection]

True that is one to be watching

[@xManzi]

As someone who loves the clean and "out of the factory" shiny look, I though I would never say this, but it just looks too clean compared to the plastic version...

[@JustinsCollection]

Agreed

[@thaddeusdaruszka4994]

I just got my figure and had to watch a review to see how the heck to power it on. I don't like the usb. Why not just use batteries like most of the other figures. I do feel this version looks more movie accurate. In the film you can see the shine of the armor. The plastic one is a bit too dirty and dull. But yet the diecast is a bit too clean.

[@JustinsCollection]

Fair

[@DScott-b5i]

I saw you try 2 move the rubber pieces on both sides but it really didn't move very smoothly & I'm curious because on mine it's the same way hardly any movement or rotation at all. And as for the Generator I think it sounds very nice it adds that little extra to this very beautiful piece & everything else on this IM-M1is awesome!

[@JustinsCollection]

Agreed some minor issue but overall very solid

[@flavioshouseofcollectibles]

We’re the jacket loops super hard to wrap around the wrist pegs with the flame effect watched another video and the collector could not get them on didn’t see you attempt on camera ?

[@Dew-ki3ei]

If you have the USB on, cut the power at the wall and then back on will the features come on? My goal is to turn it on without having to push the little button on the back each time. Does that make sense? Is that possible? Thx

I had this charging from sideshow yesterday but I put it on payment plan because I wanted to watch reviews first. I never owned the other releases but I do think this is worth the money.

[@Computerfly]

In hand (I have them both) The diecast face paint is waaaay too clean. The 2.0 has much more character, the face paint is darker (dirtier, just like the film) which really brings out all the subtle features in the portrait sculpt. Also, the belt/codpiece on mine was glued into the torso and it was very crooked. The 2.0 is free floating. Keep the 2.0!

[@JustinsCollection]

[@Leo-Tyrant]

I have the 2.0. It looks almost "matte", it doesn't really look made out of metal and it always looks too dark and plastic next to the rest of diecasts. It does have more texture detail but that detail fails to convey the look of real metal. The new one doesn't have that problem, and looks like the actual armor in all scenes in the movie (the way the light reacts to the metal surface and new paintjob vs the overdone textured surface of 2.0). In this case "more detail-shading better".

[@JustinsCollection]

Not really, as you can see in the video when the light hits it there is definitely a metallic glint to it. Maybe your one's paint has dulled over time?

[@Leo-Tyrant]

@@JustinsCollection Thanks for the reply. Perhaps? It really looks very dull compared to every other "armored" metal hot toys I have, the texture and paint is top class, but instead of shining it absorbs the light. New one lacks the sheer detail in each metal piece, but gains all of that reflection. Matter of taste, I overwhelmingly prefer the new one.
