A new product page has been posted for an upcoming S.H. Figuarts Iron Man 3 Tony Stark Figure by Tamashii Nations. The figure depicts Stark as he is testing out his new Mark 42 armor upgrades from the film. Tony Stark stand about 6″ tall and uses the same digital coloring technique seen in the S.H Figuarts Star Wars line for the head sculpt. The figure will include swap out armored forearms and lower legs. The first run will include the Power Stage display. Also mentioned is that an all-new Iron Man Mark 3 Armor, which was seen in the original Iron Man film.
Tony Stark goes up for pre-order starting May 20th, with a release set for October. The figure will be priced at 6,480 Yen (about $59 USD). You can see all of the photos by reading on.
I tried searching for an old thread to update, but couldn't so hope it's ok to start a new one.

A lot of the text is graphics, so I couldn't translate. But he appears to be going up for preorder May 20 for an October release.
According to this, he's not an exclusive! Tamashii Announced Item Page
The stand appears to be a first run bonus.
There's also a tease for a Mark 3 Iron Man suit, that was not released before was it?
What the hell is going on in the picture where he's lifting his leg?! Is the joint only at the bottom of the cut and not in it?
Thanks for bringing this forward. MK3 is my favorite armor design. If Figuarts releases the MK3, I'll be all over that. And I wonder if the MK2 in the background behind that image of Tony is a teaser. That's my second-favorite!
Looks awesome! Probably won't bite, but to be honest an actual figure of Tony Stark is much more interesting to me than the endless Iron Man suits.
And by the way, if any of you want to import this figure from Japan yourself pre-orders for Tony will go up on May 20th in Japan, not like usual on the first day of the following month so get ready to place a pre-order before they sell out.
Thanks for the heads up.
I wish figuarts had done all of the house party armors.
I think he's talking about the way the leg/hip joint looks. It is kind of weird.
Honestly the iron man 3 tony figure is cool but Sh. Figuarts needs to stop with the BS & announce the other Civil War figures already. We need an Sh Figuarts movie Spider-Man!!!!!
Why does it have that fugly Revoltech ball joint on the elbow?
On the plus side this is exactly what we need as action figure collectors. And the head sculpt is pretty good likeness .... at least from the image. But then again Shfiguarts AOU Hulk looked good. Til it arrived in person *sigh*
It's the pull down hip joints. That's why it's sitting thay low. Can always shift it up.but get less range most likely. OR if you mean the pose it's from the first Iron Man movie when he's learning how to use the propulsion system/thrusters.
Definitely getting this. Will it be available on amiami or just the Tamashi site? I really hope the head will fit on any & all the armored suits made so far. I wonder where the snap off sites are on the legs? I believe the swap part for the lower arms seems to be the biceps swivel area?
This is from Iron man #1 isn't it? Not IM#3 And you know that's not how Bandai Japan Shfiguarts works lol They drag out lines for years (as I'm sure your aware) It does suck waiting though I feel ya bro[/QUOTE]
No the armor is from Iron Man 3 & i'm what I'm saying is that sh figuarts pushed back alot of good dragon ball z figures because they announced that they were taking on the Civil War line both team cap & team iron man so thats about 11 figures in total. They've only announced 5 & those don't drop until the fall, they haven't even announced the rest of them but announce BS figure like this Iron Man 3 Tony Stark which i believe more people would prefer a SH Figuarts Vision,Winter Soilder, Spider-Man, Falcon, or even another War Machine over this figure.... Just saying
sold out on hobbysearch like that!!!
why is it up on hobby and not amiami they both are the same!!!

pre-orders closed on amiami, damn! And they had a 15% off deal on it as well.
Oh I didn't realize them taking on movie lines of marvel cinematic universe would affect the nature of DragonBall line at the same time. I guess it makes sense but I'd have to disagree on people wanting a vision or winter soldier over tony stark. For one thing iron.man is HUGE in asia. Also Shfiguarts hasn't done a Tony Stark and if you notice company's doing Iron man figures without Tonys likeness aren't getting half the attention as the companys/figures WITH his likeness. That on top.of the fact he sold out his preorder almost instantaneously . But a Winter Soldier figure is definitely not a bad idea and I can see the appeal.yo that too
