The quarter scale Super Alloy War Machine Mark II is available for pre-order from YesAnime – they are the US distributor for Play Imaginative. For an armor that was cut out from Iron Man 3 (it had been planned for in an early draft of the movie), it sure has generated a lot of action figures. In addition to Play Imaginative’s War Marchines in 1/6 and 1/12, we’ve also seen upcoming figures of War Machine from Hasbro, Diamond Select Toys, and Hot Toys.
The price tag for this figure is $609.99, which puts it way out of my range, but I’m really interested in what Play Imaginative can achieve in this scale. It’s got over 50 points of articulation, LED lights (with a remote control for them), and even a microfiber cleaning cloth to wipe off fingerprints off of the over 80% of diecast parts. The exclusive edition comes with an alternate head featuring Don Cheadle’s likeness. Impressive.
