Tony Stark has built a number of new suits in Iron Man 3. Aldrich Killian and his Extremis soldiers proved to be a formidable force and Tony has to initiate the “House Party Protocol” to confront them.
We are excited to present one of the brand new armors from Tony Stark’s “House Party Protocol” – 1/6th scale Heartbreaker (Mark XVII) Limited Edition Collectible Figurine, the Artillery Level RT Suit. It features red and gold-colored armor, and LED light-up functions.

Special features on armor: Red and gold-colored painting on armor, LED-lighted eyes and circle-shaped RT on chest (white light, battery operated).

I think that it's good that it's not die-cast as it doesn't jack up the costs. Furthermore, with die-cast metal parts, there's always the concern of the paint chipping off. A figure made of plastic which cost less (including shipping costs) can be painted to look metallic as Hot Toys has shown us in the past. Let's not get overboard or all hyped up with metallic die-cast figures (especially the Super Alloy ones) because it only means we have to pay more money for less figures. I would rather have more figures to enjoy than have to pick and choose which ones to buy just because they are made of die-cast material but in the end, look just the same when displayed.
Accessory: One (1) circular figure stage with transparent pillar

Looks kind of cheap for me. The grey parts look much like plastic.
