A Kotobukiya Japanese import! This summer one of the most popular Marvel superheroes returns to the silver screen. In the first two Iron Man films as well as the Avengers Robert Downey Jr. has played the perfect Tony Stark and his heroic alter ego Iron Man, with incredible special effects bringing his armored forms to life like never before. Following on the massive global success of the superhero team up movie Marvel is bringing the fans even more armored action with Iron Man 3 this May! Joining the previously announced Mark VII in the Iron Man 3 ARTFX Statue lineup is a new armored suit from the upcoming movie, Iron Man Mark 42!

After surviving imprisonment by terrorists, billionaire industrialist Tony Stark created the Mark II armor suit. This was followed up soon after by the iconic Mark III suit used to battle Stane and his Iron Monger suit at the culmination of the first film, and the upgraded Marks IV, V, and VI armor in the sequel. He went even further with the Mark VII in Avengers, using the high-tech armor to take on the army of the Chitauri. Now we get a sneak peek at the ultimate powered armor in Stark’s Iron Man 3 Mark 42. Similar to the Mark VII, the new version is a sleek machine with overlapping plates and a unique segmented look. Iron Man blasts into action, churning up water beneath him with his thrusters. The dynamic pose catches the superhero leaning back as he fires his repulsor ray from his outstretched right hand, clenching the left for a follow up attack. The Mark 42 is resplendent in metallic red and gold with a subtle new pattern unlike any of the armors before it. This version also comes equipped with an amazing LED light-up feature in his eyes and arc reactor; three settings (Off, Continuous On, and triggered by the built-in sound detector) let you choose how and when Iron Man activates for battle!

Iron Man Mark 42 stands 15 inches tall (1/6th scale) hovering over the lifelike water effect. This pre-painted, snap-fit ARTFX Statue is easy to assemble so you can have your Iron Man on display in no time. Arriving this summer along with the release of the film, the Mark 42 is just the first Iron Man 3 ARTFX statue from Kotobukiya; there are more to follow!

My Mark 42 arrived today. I tried to take some pictures but i´m not very talented at that. Here they are. If you want some extra pictures of some special parts or if you want to know something special just tell me. I will try my best to answer all questions.
The Mark 42 doesn´t have the light sensor the Mark VII had any more but it has a great new featur. It has the option to light up when it hears a clapping sound. So it lights up when you clap your hands or snap with your fingers in front of it.

pics of the box for those who are interested in them

Congratz Zero, looks good :thumbs:

What do you think about the paint job?
Is that an error/defect on the upper chest above the ARC :ohno:

The paint job is not as good as it was on the Mark VII. It is indeed a little error of the painting above the arc but you have to look really closely to see it in reality. On the pics it came out way more obvious than in reality. Probably because of the flash of the cam. I don´t know if that is standard or if it´s just mine. We have to wait until rodtp gets his to see how it turns out.

Here are two more pics of the paining above the arc. I´ts not that bad. I can live with it. You really have to look super closely to see that it isn´t 100% perfect

Mark you have eagle-eyes mate. I didn't notice anything wrong until Zero close up pics. Let's see how mine is going to turn up, but I honestly can live with that. I will post the pics here as soon as I get it.

And on these Pictures it is "barely" noticeable at all!
Maybe it looks BAD because of the flesh...
Wait till Rodrigo unleashes his Mark42, then we should know if it is worth to ask for a partial refund or not (if at all!)
