If you were really digging the diecast figures that Hot Toys revealed and gave us a sneak peek of the last few days, then you are going to be delighted to hear that Play Imaginative Revealed Iron Man 3 Super Alloy Diecast Figures in both 1/4 scale and 1/12 scale. What’s that you say? 1/12 scale? YES! 6 inch diecast figures are going to be coming from Play Imaginative! This is good news if you really want to see what all this diecast hype is all about but don’t want to drop $300 just to test the waters.

They are going to be releasing Iron Man Mark XLII (Mark 42), Iron Patriot, and War Machine in 1/4 scale (18 inches) and 1/12 scale (6 inches). This figures should start shipping in August and September 2013.

I’m wondering how much the shipping cost is going to be for those gigantic 1/4 scale figures. 18 inches of diecast is going to be pretty heavy don’t you think?
