So I plan on doing an iron man hall of armors diorama with a small workstation/worktable in the center of the entire thing with the holographic figure sitting atop it with my custom plain clothes tony working on it... so I tried something today I know yall will love. I want to eventually light the entire dio with LEDs, one on each of the "Hall of armors" armors and then another set of lights on the holo figure. I hoped that it would be black light reactive and I'd finally get a use out of some UV LED's that I bought.... sure enough, it is UV reactive, check it out:

I definately thought so... it makes me wonder if any of the older hasbro holo-figures are black light reactive... Or even the little pack in figures that were in the 30th aniv. packs? a little mini holo vader would be an awesome addition to the at-at cockpit!

anyone else think it looks like a spiderman motif on his head when he lights up? I look forward to seeing this progress.

maybe u wanna brush off the muscles a little bit... he's ;ike eddie guerrerro hahaha... but the IM holo is fucking cool..... hope to see ur dio progress Yeah.... as I'm cleaning my room today I'm looking ahead at stuff that I could be putting into this dio (and subsequently where I'm going to display it!) and I do think I'm going to go back and redo my tony figure. He's WAY to muscular. Are any of you guys collecting the holo-cards that come with the figures? I'm thinking about cutting out parts of them and suspending them on tables in tony's shop like little "hologram" projections. It's a shame the back card that has the torso of each figure isn't clear as well or else I could make holograms of each suit in front of the suit itself... I still might make enough room beside a couple of the armors that have a small screen with these cards glued to it as "technical readouts" for the armors... Idk.. I'm still trying to decide on how BIG to make this... I'm looking at a HUGE project as it is. like 2 feet deep by a foot or 2 tall with two "stories" of armor displays as well as a cat-walk in front of the second set..... anyways... discussion on elements or ideas that I should encorporate into the dio would be awesome.

This dood on ToyFart looks to be using a lot of the Trek Bridge in his Garage, an idea I'll likely copy when I get around to my Armory (after I finish the Lair). Also, RoC Hawk should be perfect for casual Tony, imho. Put some RoC SS legs on Hawk, paint to suit (I don't agree that he has to be wearing *exactly* what he was wearing in the movie unless you're playing *exactly* those scenes - people do generally wear diff items of clothing from day to day), and you're good to go. /Damn me for not getting more RoC Hawks //Damn Hasbro for not using the body more.
