Iron Man Mark VI
We’ve been eyeing this 1:2 scale bust of Iron Man (Mark VI) ever since it was announced by Sideshow Collectibles a few months back. There were only 3,000 made so we were hoping to secure one for our collection here at the Unbox HQ. Fortunately there was an owner here in the PH who was selling it at a good price so we snapped it up as soon as we could!
Each bust is individually painted and handcrafted by the sculptors of Sideshow Collectibles which makes each piece unique. The bust weighs approximately 16 lbs. and measures 18″ x 14″ x 12″. That’s 1:2 scale or roughly half of what the actual size of Iron Man is in “real life”.
The bust basically consists of Iron Man’s upper torso, head, and right arm. It’s held up by a solid rod connected to a base. At the bottom of the base we have the printed product information, battery slot, and the number of the piece. (out of 3,000).
The batteries power the lights on the chest arc reactor, hand, and face plate of the piece.
The chest plate is actually magnetic and removable. Taking it off reveals the arc reactor. As expected the level of detail is just stunning!
Here are a few more photos of the bust in different angles for your appreciation:
Ordering the bust with shipping via Sideshow Collectibles costs around Php21,000. If you’re lucky though you can find sellers locally with a better price (around the Php16,000-Php19,000 range). It’s pricey but if you’re a collector and a fan then this is one great piece that will find the perfect home in your living room.
