One:12 Collective Iron Man: Armor Model 42 Edition Mezco Exclusive - Here Today, Gone In Minutes


JayC

Recommended Posts

Mezco today announced a new online exclusive for their One:12 Collective Marvel figures. This one is a repaint of their Iron Man figure in black and gold colors. The figure is being called the 42 Edition. It should be noted that the figure which was put up for pre-order on the Mezco website has already sold out, though you can still be placed on a wait list. You have to wonder why Mezco seems to choose to make these kinds of figures in such small numbers that they sell out so quickly???

Anyway here are the official details for the $90 figure:

The One:12 Collective Iron Man: Armor Model 42 Edition features a light-up function that illuminates Iron Man’s arc reactor, the source of his power. Designed with real metal components, the armored Avenger’s comes equipped with a range of booster and blast effects, including a chest beam repulsor that lights up when attached to the arc reactor.

Powered by numerous Repulsor Tech cores, the Armor Model 42 was developed by Tony Stark initially for testing new technological developments but was later upgraded for battle. Featuring modular abilities and new A.I., the Armor Model 42 adds to Stark’s impressive armory of Iron Man suits.

One (1) head portrait

Approximately 17cm tall
Six (6) interchangeable hands including
One (1) pair of fists (L&R)

There never truly will be one definitive Iron Man armor will there? Lol. I feel like I have to limit myself to only owning one Iron Man fig so that I don't feel the pressure to buy them all. Haha!

LOL, I remember back in the day when it was a  big occurance when Iron Man would get a new suit of armor in the comics. When  he went from the red and gold to the silver and red it was a pretty big deal. Now he changes armors like one would change everyday  clothes.

I don't think it's necessarily that we're getting too many Iron Man figures, but rather that Iron Man is getting too many new suits in the comics and films, which then leads to the production of more figures. Everytime a new Iron Man armor comes out, people want the figure to coincide with his current look, however, it seems its only a matter of months or even weeks before he's on to a new armor and the figure they have is now outdated, so they are then compelled to get the new figure. That's why my one and only Iron Man on my shelf is the Marvel Legends Heroic-Age Iron Man from the Iron Monger Wave.

Exactly! I can't really blame them for making a bunch of figures though, because it is great for those people who want to have the ultimate "Hall of Armor" display. Which I totally get, I'm obsessed with having every alternate version of batman just because. Lol.

I am gonna say that for an exclusive is amazing. Why? Is not the main armor and just a repaint of their original Iron Man armor that to me is the most interesting one.  People are complaining, but it's already on waitlist. 

I have the SHF version of this armor the "Marvel Now" and I have no interest in buying this, like I said I much rather have the regular one to my Iron Man collection. 

I agree with Jay C. Back when Tony got the Silver Centurion armor was a big deal. To me is one of the coolest ones and I guess only Comicave made one in 6 inch scale and now is sold for a big buck. I love to see Mezco take on this one (please don't be an exclusive one)

The bottom line is that this another perfect example of what an exclusive item should be. Something cool, but not essential.

No we are definitely getting too many iron man figures. Yeah he has changed armor constantly lately but there’s been so many releases of the same armor in different takes. Not just speaking mezco. And at least one completely unnecessary and largely unwanted one.

Again, it's an exclusive, limited edition. If you don''t like it, you don't have to buy it.  It's for the Iron Man fan. It's not like they didn't release a figure and instead put that one like some companies do.

No I hear you. It is an exclusive, I know. It’s just a tad bit annoying when there’s so many different characters you’d like to see. I’m sure I would feel differently if Iron man was in my top three. For example, I never get sick of seeing different Wolverines.

I’m still waiting for the classic version of this to come out! I’m interested in it, don’t know about the $90 price mark though. 

But it does look good this armor is like the perfect resemblance to the Avengers EMH’s Iron Man. 

All the figures with light up features will have an increase in price. I don't like to pay more for figures as much as the next guy, but it is an additional feature and if it works well enough it's worth way more than 10 bucks. Plus he has diecast parts and the magnetic faceplate.  Cyclops and Cable are 100 bucks now because of the same features. So 90 is quite fair. 

I also would like very much to have the regular version. It is the most classic looking figure in this scale with this quality and amount of accessories we have ever seen.

I am right down with you man. I will be forever bummed down about that Tigerstripe. Still figuring out if the regular brown costume is worth picking up. I would love to have that Logan too. But budget is waaay too limited.

If I had to recommend one man I would highly recommend getting the retro Wolverine or the juggernaut series one which is the darker brown. But I think the retro is more true to the comic look.

I already have the vintage wave. Thank you. I am eager for the Tigerstripe because it is my favorite. The cartoons and the comics from the 90's had a huge impact on the way I see super heroes until this day. This is Hasbro

Now to Mezco, yeah since I can have only one I will give the brown costume a chance although I didn't like the shorts they gave him  even with the changes they have made.

Oh my bad sorry I should have realized you were talking Mezco. I gotta say I’m just not into the look of the Mezco Wolverines. This soft cloth outfits just make him look to baggy or bulky or something. And I haven’t seen one unmasked headsculpt I’m crazy about. But that just my particular taste. I’m partial to Legends. I can’t get into the cloth

For some figures it works very well. I have Batfleck, Deapool and Flash.  Unfortunately didn't get the Punisher, which is one o the best looking ones. 

For Woalverine, to me the thing that they got msot wrong was the height. He should be a lot shorter than he is. I know which head youa re talking about, but you can always go after some good custom.

Yeah those Punisher ones reeeeaaally tempted me. They look great!  And the accessories are awesome. Yeah the Wolverine definitely is too tall. That’s one thing Legends finally got right when the brown costumed one came out. There are some great custom head makers out there.

Dude all that talk about too many iron man figures and I went ahead and pre-ordered the regular Mezco one. Lol. What can I say the reviews sold me. And I really really want a decent comic version quality 6” iron man .  I’m really hoping he fits in with my marvel legends cause of not I’m afraid I might resell him. We’ll see at the end of this month I guess. But I really wish I would’ve had time to scoop up this exclusive when he went up. He’s far too expensive now to buy after market. Damn it. I really love the black and gold 42.

Yeah. I am also very excited for a good comic version Iron Man. All the ones I have are movie versions. That color scheme is nice, however doesn't quite resemble to Marvel Now look. So I will stick to the classic version. I really hope that I can get him. 

I have the Mark3 from Figurats black and gold and it's awesome. But SHFs are quite small.

Yeah that’s the only reason I refrained from figuarts. But yeah I ordered the classic Mezco Iron Man.  Thanks now I I don’t feel so bad missing that exclusive lol. The classic is a better call
