Iron Man 3 Sets Revealed

[Resh1138]

that looks like its to be a nice bunch of sets to come out soon....

the release dates are around April???

as soon as i can get my hands on them i'll definitely review them within a couple of days of being built; even if it might mess with rl

nope; the scheduled release date is supposedly March 15

oh-nice...they'll be out before easter

these will be reviews I'll definitely be looking forward to .....

i wish there was a iron patriot suit including set; cause there is a movie set pic with that suit in it

hummm... I wonder why there's not ....
maybe they'll release a set later on....like near December to get the holiday dollars....you know like some kind of 'big mega set"

then they would have mentioned it at the NY toy fair lego coverage; there was no such a thing brought up

wow..... that's very odd of them to not go for something that would turn a profit with so little effort on their part

meh; it just means less to store on shelves

i'll just make a custom one via copying the ironman helmet pieces(via scanning and 3d printing one to use on making a mold

yup...you can do that..... its alot of effort though ...you using hand made wax molds ??? (you only can use these once but you can get a great 'hollow' helmet mold out of it)
you going to use liquid resin or liquid latex that will set semi-rigid
the latex gives you an advantage of being able to be custom tinted to the correct colours.....but both need a lot of ventilation when used

probably liquid latex since it is what most custom parts are made with

very good ....when you do get it done you'll have to show me ....

i might once i can get decals made for the torso, arms, and legs

hummmm ...could you not use model paints and paint it right on ???

not for the smaller details

....darn ....then the scanning gods better to nice to you and give a nice clean scan for decal printing

the head wont have any decals; read the original comment where i stated what i needed to be made once i finished the helmet:
"i might once i can get decals made for the torso, arms, and legs"

the decals are for the torso, arms and leg areas of the minifig to provide the armor details

'kay-'kay .....lots of work ahead then ...lots of work !!

yep..

should i go for movie accurate:


or have it be the more traditional comics coloration:
