The unmasked feature is only available on the variant, which is exclusive to Borders. The regular releases at comic shops won't have the removable faceplate.

Tony's armor seems too chunky; I need to see these with their masks down compared to the normal releases to judge which I might get.
also wondering about the light-up bases? |

I'm confused is the faceplate removable or is it just stuck in an open position. Those pictures aren't showing the faceplate down so I'm concerned. Also, it is a shame that War Machine has a blue reactor and red eyes...

That's why I'm opting for the Wal-Mart exclusive. Extra hands, slimmer, colors match, and I can pretend he's not Don Cheadle. lol Terrence was a way better Rhodey, IMO.

He messed up, I didn't know that though. War Machine's gonna be the surprise moneymaker of the movie and toyline I think.

A good idea for me would be to get this War Machine for the removable mask and the other one for accuracy in the Arc Reactor light, so you can switch heads whenever you want to make a good War Machine figure

They're figure stands for Gundams I think. You can get them at various sites that sell them.
And these look awesome. I definitely need the Iron Man. Not so sure about War Machine though. I just can't get enough RDJ. I don't even think Terrence looks like Rhodey. Either way, both actors are too mellow to play Rhodey. Especially recently, Rhodes has not been the happiest camper. He was always cool, but not a soft-spoken dude.

But I want both! This one is 1" taller! This is going to be a tough one.

I want both as well, they serve different purposes for me. The 6" one will be my go-to for playing/posing. The Marvel Select one I will play and pose but it is the better of the 2 to display, the sculpt is awesome and the articulation is decent, albeit disappointing on the hips.

The removable mask is the only thing that wins over the Wal-mart War Machine. And since I can live without the removable mask the WM version will be the one I eventually pick up.

The bad thing about the unmasked versions is that the holes on the head(2 of which are visible no matter what) deter from the look.

Got a rewards coupon from Borders today for buy 1, get 1 50% off. I called my nearest store, and they said they just received this War Machine. I think I may go pick it up along with Iron Man.

Like Shin said, just the head will be different. Borders is the only one getting the removable mask/Cheadle head sculpt. Other places, such as Comic book stores, that get this in will have a regular head, but otherwise identical figure.
