Bandai Samurai War Machine Manga Realization Action Figure: Rhonin

James Rhodes’ first War Machine suit was a more heavily armed and armored version of Tony Starks’ Iron Man Mk. 11. His samurai variant is no different. The latest from Bandai’s Manga Realization action figures, Samurai War Machine is a walking gunship.

The 7″ tall action figure has guns on its wrists and more on its backpack, including a cannon. The backpack-mounted weapons can be folded down. Like the Samurai Iron Man figure, the toy also has a jetpack and a samurai sword. Oh and his chest plate has abs and nipples. Take that, Tony Stark. You can pre-order Samurai War Machine from BigBadToyStore for $90 (USD).

3D Printed War Machine Costume: War Machined

It may not be the most beautiful or complex costume in the world, but Redditor transcoder’s War Machine suit was made with cutting edge tech. Transcoder used a RepRap i3v 3D printer and about $1,000 (USD) worth of plastic for some of the larger parts – including the guns – while the rest are papercraft. He also installed a 40mm fan inside to keep him cool.

Papercraft War Machine Lights Up, Still Prefers Terrence Howard over Don Cheadle

Papercraft statues are getting more complex every day. Just look at the incredible detail on this War Machine statue. This 1:6 scale War Machine paper sculpture even has an LED chest light and fiber optic lights in the eyes and palms. This takes papercraft and turns it into serious paperart.

Until you look closer it looks like a quality action figure, not something made out of paper. If you want to build one yourself then check out the step-by-step photos of how Julius Perdana’s original template was created here. This light-up version was built by a guy named Charles. Not sure if he is a Stark or not, but the build quality would suggest that he is in the Stark family.

This statue is simply amazing to behold. You are a true geek Charles. I’m going to upend a Mountain Dew in your honor, my friend.
