Last month, Tamashii Nations teased an upcoming Iron Man Mark 3 armor when they announced their Tony Stark S.H. Figuarts details. A new (very tiny) magazine scan is making the rounds, and it gives us our first look at the new Iron Man figure. The Mark 3 armor was originally seen in the first Iron Man film, and was destroyed in Iron Man 3 during the attack on Tony Stark’s mansion.
From the looks of the scan, the figure is scheduled for release in November. It also seems to reveal that the Iron Man Mark 3 S.H. Figuarts will be available to pre-order on June 26th. It will include interchangeable hands and flight effects pieces. We’ll update with further details soon.
UPDATE:
Much larger version of the scan has now been added. See it by clicking the thumbnail.
Magazine Scan Shows Iron Man Mark 3 SH Figuarts
Been waiting on a definitive version of this that isn't Hot Toys. I just might pick this up.
Aw ya my favorite armor! I like the darker colors too
I have to admit though, the mk.46 is rather nice as well
I have been wanting an SHF MKIII, badly, like really, really bad ever since their MKVI!! I cannot wait!!! I do hope that they improve on articulation after all of the IM models that they have released over the years and that it's not mostly a rehash of parts from the VI. And for the love of God, when will SHF add flight stands and more accessories like the Figma MK VII DX figure?! But still, I am super excited to finally get a MKIII!
My favorite MCU I-M armor, definitely getting this one!!
Yah, I've been waiting for this as well. Figma was very good, but Figuarts should do a better job with the shoulders and knees.
Repulsor and boot jet effect accessories are visible in the photo, and I'd be surprised if the set doesn't include wrist rockets. Bonus would be an alternate head sculpt with raised face plate, as Figuarts could probably do a version that's more realistic than Figma. (The alternate head sculpt eyes and beard were painted rather simplistically, having the effect of making Martin Downey's face resemble a pen-and-ink drawing -- a good one, but a drawing nonetheless.)
Now, if Comicave subsequently releases their own version of this armor, I'll be perturbed.
on an armored body why deos tony stark need wrist/back hand protectors? youre already wearing ARMOR

And pre-orders will go up July 1st, not June 26th like the news post states.
This is so great, I never expected this version of the armor to be included in the Figuarts line. I wonder if Tamashii Nations will cover any of the other older Marvel films? I wouldn't mind a Figuarts Armored Thor.
This guy is up on Amiami and other sites now! Pre-ordered mine this morning
