    I'm usually not a toy collector, but when I saw this action figure iron monger from ironman, I knew I have to get it.  I've really enjoy the Ironman film,  especially the designs of the flight suit and the mechanic of ironman and his villian, iron monger.

    I saw this Iron Monger action figure in Toy-r-us.  it is just the normal Hasbro action figure.  The quality of it is not very good at all.  For this one, there were no paint on it what so ever.  The mold itself were decent.  But did they forget to paint them?

    Since I've done so many prop making when I was doing Special Effects.  Repainting a figure was an easy task for me.   So I got myself some model paint and painted them with multiple layers trying to get the brush steel look to it.  It came out pretty good.  At least It made the toy look more like a collectors piece.

    without further due, here it is.

    Here are the original color straight out from the box, just a piece of brownish plastic.



    And here are the painted version. Which one would you buy?

    It looked authentic after you painted.

    真的是非常棒~！
    原谅我英语不太好，前次只是看懂个大概就贸然留言。呃……最关键的说明这是用漆改装的那段我没看懂，还以为一个是“山寨版”，一个是原版……想想不能这样马虎，于是翻词典慢慢细看……呃，我闹笑话了……
    用的什么漆可以做出这种效果啊？好厉害~！都可以和原图相媲美~！玩具是塑料的吧，改装得很成功看上去很有金属质感~记得看到过学长做玻璃钢雕塑，用丙烯颜料绘制，最后效果类似铜制，难道是用丙烯多加金色调料……
    反正就是很赞啦~！(*^__^*) 嘻嘻……

    The first figure on the left with it's red light on it's chest reminds me of those friendly aliens from The Fifth Element.
    Fantastic job. I'll definitely look twice.

    That treats us with affection,
    That sends us messages
    In any type and format,
    As poems or texts,
    For day time, night or dawn
    No need festive date,
    To send us a message,
    Arrange any pretext.

    The brushed steel look gives it a more rustic and war torn robot feel,it's good.
