Hulkbuster Iron Man

Hulkbuster Iron Man

Much like Iron Monger, I was attracted to this figure because it’s a big robot looking dude. From an engineering side, this is much more what I’d expect an Iron Man suit to look like. To be honest, this version of the armor reminds me a bit of the the later issues of “Codename: Spitfire” […]

Cobra Trooper

Cobra Trooper

This is a bit strange, I’ve never reviewed a repaint of a figure that I’ve reviewed before. But here we go. This version is carded as Cobra Infantry.

The high collar reminds me of priest. It’s not. He just reminds me of that. Good luck on this one!
