Red Shadow Mobile Command Vehicle

Post by Shadow_Contact »

Friend of Mine emailed me some pics of a New Ironman 2 Vehicle. I think it would make a neat Command Vehicle for the shads,

It would make a good one but otherwise what a terrible cashing-in excuse of a vehicle. Like some of the variant armour figures it wasn't in the film.

In that case they could have included more things from the film like Black Widow, Nick Fury, Tony Stark in racing gear with his car.

You're right Laser. In the case of Iron Man, the variant armors don't bother me as much as the ones in the other superhero collections (like Batman), but Hasbro could have released more characters before doing it!
I'm mainly noticing the new scale isn't releasing secret identities, despite them being in previous collections. And I was expecting a Steve Rogers after the Cap film... :-(

I like that vehicle. I'll get it when it comes out. Hasbro royally f*cked up with the figures though. How long has the movie been out now - and still no bad guy figure? Retarded.

That vehicle may well be a pain to customise, though. I found the gold parts of the DEMON were a slightly greasy feeling plastic that the spray paint really didn't want to bond to.

When I did my quads some of the added parts didn't stick on well and have since come off again. So it's pretty much trial and error in finding ideal vehicles to customise.

Have you tried sanding the piece with super fine grit sandpaper then painting? It will probably need 3 coats before its completely smooth again but it should stick
