I have to admit, my heart jumped this morning when I saw it. I have the Diecast Classic Iron Man and I thought that, at first glance, this one was only a small step down from that one I already have. Ben, I actually said "This or That" this morning! Damn you Ben Thomas, you're in my head now...lol. The diecast one is great. Also limited edition. And a known, in-hand figure. That said, I think I'll keep 'that;'. If I can make room on my PO list I might buy 'this' to display the second mask. Good video, man!

Hono wins, because they colored the chest unibeam like the UNIBEAM, and not the stupid Arc reactor from the movies. Way too many figures based on the comics screw this up, nowadays.

That’s an easy answer. Hono absolutely nailed it. From a visual standpoint. They checked all the boxes. Shelving the 1 concern (seamless body) I have. It looks absolutely fantastic. They captured the Classic look perfectly. It looks flawless. The paint application is beautiful. What a way to pay Homage to the Classic colors while also modernizing it. A perfect blend. The colors still give you that vibe but the metallic just makes it so much more visually pleasing. I love the additional face plates. I like having the flexibility of changing them out periodically. A Nostalgic selection. Hands down, Hono wins here. As for the other question. For me. Hono is the only I would need.

I was planning to get the Hot Toys Shellhead, but now that I've seen this, I'm going to get the Hono. I'll definitely be looking for the Tony Stark head from the HT version when a dealer parts it out.

This is a hard question. I love Hot Toys and Hono makes good products at a lower price. I see the regular price of Hono was $160 and this Iron Man is $215. It has crept up but I feel Iron Man products were always priced higher so this doesn’t bother me as long as they don’t raise the price of their regular figures also. If they continue to raise prices then they’ll need another entry level company for 1/6 figures.

I have a feeling the fighting system and such added to the cost. I wouldn't be surprised if most releases from them stay in the 170 range though! Thanks for watching as always bud!

The only thing I think of when I saw it, how long until the paint starts cracking

I think they are doing a 'GOLD' Colored silicon. Not painting Gold onto a Flesh colored silicon.

@TheBenThomasShow 4 ай бұрын

@GiftedMonkeyTV it says metallic coat application so I think that means it's paint

@dan3dprint183 4 ай бұрын

This Hono figures increase the price every release. Let's see how much Thor cost. My problem with this Iron Man it's that the silicone body can turn dust.

@TheBenThomasShow 4 ай бұрын

I think we will see standard release still back under 200! But yes let's see how it turns out and longevity of material! Thanks for watching and supporting the show!!

@goose1752 4 ай бұрын

Hono figures have all looked better than their Hot Toys counterparts, the fact that they're cheaper and simpler makes them more streamlined, as opposed to the over designed MCU like designs of Hot Toys.

I tend to agree! The black suit spiderman is still questionable material choice wise but otherwise yes! Thanks for watching and supporting the channel!

To me this looks like Gene Colan's artwork as stepped off the page, which is enough reason to buy it, I'd say let Hot Toys do movie and tv versions, and Hono do the comic book accurate versions!

Can't do this or that when one is sold out. Happy to have "that". Cheaper. Plus,don't really need a Tony head sculpt.

@TheBenThomasShow 4 ай бұрын

True but I wouldn't be surprised if you see them hit secondary market pretty fast when people decide they want the hono instead :)

@TheBenThomasShow 4 ай бұрын

I mean faiiiiir, but I still really don't feel 215 is that expensive for this. Now quality in hand remains to be seen. I wouldn't be surprised if their next few releases are back in the 175 range. I think the magnetic lighting is what has inflated this one. It's still cheaper though than most mondo or exo 6 products for something that is pretty freaking sweet hah let's see what happens :)
