I was worried too at first, until I realized that the Mark III is just a repaint of the Mark II. You don't really realize it right away -- because the silver shows all the details -- but the more you look, the more you can tell.

karamazov80 Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 I suspect that they will bend. Has any Minimate been released yet with legs that couldn't bend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
storm 1:08 Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 I suspect that they will bend. Has any Minimate been released yet with legs that couldn't bend? I can think of one, kind of. Sandman in the Spider-Man 3 wave. The sandy version. Ummm... yeah? Maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lastmaximal Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 well, technically, that Sandman didn't have legs at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trekker 42 Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 DC's Steel didn't bend too well. The boots were too huge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drgnrbrn316 Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 I managed to get a closer look at the final version of one of these recently, but I can't recall offhand if the legs bent or not. I need to check my notes. I can tell you that he'll come with a standard set of legs without all the sculpted detail, to help capture the under armor look, so if these legs don't bend, at least those will.

rx78jj Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 Can't wait to get my hand on that Iron Monger. I saw the clip of the Iron Man director and it showed that the Iron Man suits are removable with clothed versions of Tony. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winkerbean Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 Since afx are just reusing the sculpt for there box set later in the year i'm judging by this picture the answer is yes the iron man will have bendable legs.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny you should mention reused sculpts. I do recall that there are pegholes in the back of the regular armor where those flap things for the damaged version would attach.

That is really cool, about the armor. as for the legs i saw that as well, but i guess we will have to wait and see. i mean even if they do not bend the beauty of minimates is how easy it will be to swap them for legs that do.
