In an update to our story HERE (https://www.figures.com/forums/news/22062-hot-toys-1-6-iron-man-2-hall-armor.html), pre-orders are now being accepted for Hot Toys' new "Hall of Armor" - light-up display cases for your 12-inch Iron Man figure collection. BigBadToyStore.com (http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/search.aspx?search=Hot%20Toys%20Hall%20of%20armor) has them listed as single pieces ($124.99), sets of four ($434.99) and sets of seven ($739.99). For those on a budget, Sideshow Collectibles (https://affiliates.sideshowtoy.com/Tracker.aspx?aid=6&href=http%3a%2f%2fwww.sideshowtoy.com%2f%3fpage_id %3d4489%26sku%3d902005%26ref%3dhome_new%23HotToysI tem) has a set of four listed ($469.99) with a monthly payment plan available.

Keep in mind that these do not include a figure. Are these display cases worth over $100 each? I'll let their specs help you decide. Each Hall of Armor, releasing in May 2013, features:

Are you kidding me with this? I don't hear any roflcopters so this must be legitimate. They're selling 7, and in it's simplest form, BOXES for $739.99?! That is an absolutely outlandish amount of money for a couple boxes that light up. I can see people maybe buying one, but the whole 'diorama' deal with set you back $750? I see no one buying these, but I suppose they cost about $10 to make so Hot Toys won't be so much out of pocket. Their figures are expensive enough without overly expensive 'dioramas'.
