It's a holiday today which means most businesses in the US are closed, but one event that is still running is the annual Toy Fair in New York City. A lot of new toys and statues and figures are being unveiled this year and there are some great round-ups (check SlashFilm or Collider as well as Upcoming Pixar for Toy Story 3 toys). However, the one new statue I want to feature today is the new Iron Man 2 statue from the Japanese company Kotobukiya. The quality of their products is matched only by Sideshow Collectibles and this new statue looks awesome (and I happen to have the Iron Man version myself - seen in that photo below as well).
Photos and info come from Marvel.com. The statue measures 14" tall and will be available starting in August for $174.99 which is a great price! "With the upcoming release of Iron Man 2 in May of 2010, Kotobukiya is proud to add the Iron Man Movie Mark VI Fine Art Statue to the Marvel Studios collection! Robert Downey Jr. is reprising his role as Tony Stark with multiple new and improved armored suits, culminating in the ultimate Mark VI!" Like the previous Kotobukiya Iron Man Statues, the Mark VI includes LED lights in the eyes, chest, fists and base! This is a must for anyone hardcore Iron Man fan. Who is buying one?

Why would you waste $150 on this? No wonder why our national savings rate was -2% before the crash (it has since risen to 6% during the recession). Put the money in a retirement account.

This isn't stupid... it just isn't good enough to justify $150. By the way it looks like they just ran out of paint when they were painting the knee.

If you're going to spend that much, at least get a figure that looks good.

I'd rather pay $150 for a Hot Toys figure rather than a statue.

This Extremis armor is bloody exciting. I'm guessing this means that he's moved the internals of the Iron Man Armour into his bones? This is the hardcore Comic book stuff that i didn't think they'd get to so soon in the movies.

I'd pay $150 for a statue of Scarlett Johansson, but not for a piece of fanart with a suspect codpiece.
