Yep.

Originally it was just going to be a bust inside, but Hot Toys wisely chose to do better. Which is why it took so long to be released. It is a vast improvement.

I have both versions of Hulkbuster and you can see the difference between v1 and v2. V2 they just did under their Power Pose line so it has limited articulation and feels like they cheaped out compared to v1.

Still both are amazing. Which is why I am on the fence about Unicron. I really like it, but that price is definitely Hot Toys level and I'm not sure if it is justified. I guess those who bought the Khetanna would be best able to say if it was a quality purchase.

Also doesn't help that they are asking for full payment upfront and in less than 2 months. Hot Toys/Sideshow know it is better to offer things early and options for payment.

Exactly my point, it's a Hasbro product, not some high-end company like Fanstoys or Hot Toys. It's also not an MP figure, so don't expect diecast or paint. The price is too much for what it is (regardless of weight or height).
