Hot Toys Iron Man 3 Armor Details Analysis & Prediction for coming Iron Man Release

2014-07-27T09:13:00.001-07:00

Hi guys, as you all know I am a fan of HT Iron Man Series, I was thinking is that possible for HT to make all 42 different iron man armors in future, my answer now is YES, after I spent couple of hours to analyze the similarities of each armor, I fount that actually HT only need to make 14 different armors and by reusing the parts of these 14 armors and apply new paint-job, they can actually produce all 42 to armors.

These 14 armors are (actually should be 13 armors because Mark 7 design is from Avengers)

Iron Patriot or War Machine 2.0 (Already made by HT)
Mark 7 or Mark 21 Midas (Already made by HT)
Mark 17 Heart Breaker (Already made by HT)
Mark 33 Silver Centurion (Already made by HT)
Mark 35 Red Snapper (Already made by HT)
Mark 38 Igor (Already made by HT)
Mark 39 Star Boost (Already made by HT)
Mark 41 Bones (Already made by HT)
Mark 42 (Already made by HT)
Mark 15 Sneaker
Mark 16 Night Club
Mark 25 (Prototype shown by HT in 2014 HK Toy Fair)
Mark 27 Hammer Head
Mark 40 Shotgun (Bust has been made by HT, higher chance will be the next HT Iron Man)

So which means HT left only 4 armors to develop in order to have all parts available to form entire iron man 3 army. They are

Mark 15 Sneaker

Mark 16 Night Club

Mark 27 Hammer Head

Mark 40 Shotgun

Below is the analysis to show you Iron Man armors from Mark 8 to Mark 42, how are they being combined using other parts from diffrent armors to form a new armor.

Based on current developed Iron Man armors, I can summarize for you to have better idea what HT is planning on next release.

There are 10 armors can be formed without developed new parts by using existing released Iron Man armors. HT just need to apply new paintjob and combine other parts from different armors, they can easily release another Iron Man armor again.
Out of 10 these armors, 2 have been released (Midas & Python) and 2 are announced in HK Toy Fair (Blue Steel & Peacemaker), check out the complete list for the rest are here.

MARK 9/ MARK IX

And now HT is developing Mark 25 Striker. Once this striker has been released. They can reuse its parts to form the below 3 armors.

MARK 8/ MARK VIIII

Head: Mark 7

Shoulder: Mark 7

Chest: Mark 7

Arm: Mark 7

Forearm: Mark 7

Stomach: Mark 33 Silver Centurion

Hip: Mark 33 Silver Centurion

Shoulder: Mark 7

Chest: Mark 7

Arm: Mark 7

Forearm: Mark 7

Stomach: Mark 33 Silver Centurion

Hip: Mark 33 Silver Centurion

Thigh: Mark 25 Striker

Leg: Mark 33 Silver Centurion

I believe the next project for Iron Man release will be the Mark 40 Shot Gun. Once this armor is developed. They can release another 6 armors using existing parts from different armors.

FYI, HT has already done the bust for it.

My conclusion/summary

There are 42 armors in iron man movies plus 3 armors from war machine (1.0, 2.0 & Patriot)

and They actually design 7 different armors (Mark 1 to 7) + war machine/patriot + another 12 new unique armors in Iron Man 3. Therefore, Marvel has created total 20 unique designs, and then now Marvel & HT can sell 42 times to his fans.

So good luck to all HT die hard/hard core fans. This is a never ending story because the Avengers 2 and Iron Man 4 movie is coming soon. There will be new armors to be added in your collection. Happy collecting! Howard Chan will definitely earn big $ from Iron Man series.

i still keep continue buying hot toys but i've sold many of my old collection as well. You know that space does matter. and my cabinet can't fit all these new hot toys releases, they are way too many and fast!!!

hope you enjoy my recent haul and some portraiture of these hot toys stuff. check it out!

Hot Toys Spiderman 3 - New Goblin

my latest haul, hot toys superman, new goblin, royce & muscular body

2011-11-23T11:12:00.000-08:00

these are my latest haul recently, hot toys superman Christopher Reeve, Spider Man 3 - New Goblin. Predators - Royce & Muscular body (TTM-19).
my blog is updated pretty slow recently due to my focus on job. but i still keep track on recent latest hot toys release. in my preorder list, i have captain america, iron man mark II - iron man mark II, predators - classic predator, captain jack sparrow, avatar & sucker punch. I actually have resident evil - alice & indiana jones in my collection previously, but i have decided to give up these 2 due to too many release at the same time. it is a burden if i keep all in my collection. hot toys has so many good stuff release recently. even a MMS fans like me have to be selective.

i hope i will have time to shot more pics to share with you. stay tuned! next photography will be new goblin

hot toys iron man mark 5

2011-11-04T13:07:00.000-07:00

it has been almost 2 months no update for my blog. i was extremely busy on my work, because i need to complete my sales target before end of October. Fortunately, everything is going smooth. now i can finally spend my time for my hobby.

after waiting for almost a year, i have finally got iron man from mark 1 to mark 6. even though my iron man collection could not be considered a complete series (because i don't have mark 3 battle damaged, mech test version & gun metal iron man mark 3). but i think i have enough iron man for this point!
