UPDATES! Added Revoltech joints at the knees, but still have bendable wire for the elbow joints. With the Revoltech knees, the figures are now in-scale height wise with the IM2 figure line.

So... realizing that there seems to be no plans for quality 3.75 IM3 figures, I decided to use my "hobbling" bendy wire technique to add some poseability to these p.o.s.'s. Brought the figure to about Avengers movie line articulation level, and it is now a semi-decent 3.75 stand in movie line figure. Iron Patriot now has:

1) bend/swivel elbow joints
2) outward hip movement (gained by tapering the hip area of the upper legs and routing a notch around the hip pegs to turn it into more of a "ball" joint)
3) bend/swivel knee joints
4) bend/swivel repulsor wrist

I'm actually having fun with this fig now, and just have to stick a filler piece on the lower thigh area to fill in the gap there that will sink into the knee guard. It worked well enough and was so easy that I ordered a MK42 Assembler to mod. Total mod time was about 15 minutes.
