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.
Thanks for your honest review. I have the 2.0 version. That figure is in my hall of armor. I dig the weathering much better on mine. This new one will be a great buy for those missing a Mark 1 in their collection.
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
I love watching your vids Justin, you have a great, uniform format. But please just make the pun and leave it 😂 You don't have to say "I am soooo sorry" everytime. Keep up the great work 👍
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".
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?
@@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. Thanks for all the care you pour in each of your videos, I make a lot of my purchases based on your videos and comments.
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.
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.
I have the 2013 2.0 version. I am happy with it and see no need to get the new version. I do like the paint applications and detail better on the older version and personally, I don't need it to be diecast. The new figure is still a nice piece though. Great review as always.....
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.
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.
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.
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!
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!
2:53 I don't wanna be that guy but that's actually an EOtech 552 holographic sight or a similar variant. The ACOG is shaped more like a traditional rifle scope I understand that you're a toy reviewer not a firearm optics expert but as someone who loves the ACOG I couldn't help but point it out lol Awesome review as always
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!
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 ?
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!
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. I want this to go next to the 85 (the first and last armor). If I didn't have a prime 1 statue to pay for I could have this by this week, but this has to wait for now.
Thank you again for your honesty and great review. Wow! The plastic version does look better to me too. Sadly I sold my 2.0 version to get this one. I might have to wait for version 4.0 lol
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.
Hi Justin. I wanted to ask you a favor. (I think you don't have it) Could you get the Sheldon Cooper 1/6 figure and do a nice unboxing of it? 🖖🏻⚛️ Thanks.
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
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
what a strange issue with that stand, too bad they didn't make it a option to use the crotch grabber on either base. That said, I'm still looking forward to having this guy for my collection.
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...

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.
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 Just so that it could be together without removing it, or having it fall off whenever you're moving it to another part of the shelf.
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?
I have the Mark 1 2.0 and had the exact same thought. The diecast figure looks good but the paint and the sculpt is better on the 2.0. If you see in the movie, the armor is not shiny at all and it has a lot of welding spots and it looks like it's been put through a lot of heat. I will be keeping mine on this one. As always, great job with the video review!

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.
Yes it is
My favorite iron man suit. Also I love iron monger. They look so mean and intimidating
Nice!
great video, trying to figure out hot turn off that cirvo motor at the back without messing with the lights.
You cannot unfortunately
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.
Could be! I never claimed the plastic was more accurate, just that I liked it better :P
I have all three versions in my collection. Diecast my be too clean but definitely an improvement and less fragile.
For sure less fragile
I love your videos 📸📸😍😍
Thank you!
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.
Yep they're plastic and have all the surface detail like the plastic 2.0
Personally, I dont mind the sound from the back of the figure. In my opinion it adds to the scrapped and imperfect armor of the Mark 1.
Fair enough

Yeah
If you swap the head sculpt from the new one to the old one you'll have the ultimate version, if that's possible =) great video Justin!!
True!
Yes, the face paint and eye direction on the 2.0 surpasses the new diecast.
Great review Justin I can’t wait to get my first Mark 1
Nice!
Hi Justin, do you think this is in scale with the Mark II and Mark III 2.0 versions? Or do you think they will do another Mark I?
Looks about right to me
so it does not have internal battery??? you always must to plug cable to turn it on?
You have to have the cable in
@JustinsCollection Thanks, this is deal breaker, I go with 2.0
