Iron Man (Marvel Universe Series 1)

Iron Man (Marvel Universe Series 1)

Well, oddly enough, one figure I was missing in my Marvel Universe collection until a few weeks ago was precisely the first ever Iron Man suit released in this line.

Hypervelocity Armor Iron Man

Hypervelocity Armor Iron Man

Continuing the moratorium against the new Iron Man 3 figures, I decided to go back and pick up another of the action figures released under the Concept Series segment in the Iron Man 2 collection by Hasbro.

War Machine (Iron Man 3 Assemblers)

War Machine (Iron Man 3 Assemblers)

I’d been avoiding Iron Man 3 figures pretty much since they came out. Since they seemed to be lacking most of what I’d liked about the Iron Man 2 line, they were a pretty easy pass. I had picked up something in passing, War Machine was only available in the “Assemblers” version, the larger interchangeable limbs […]

Heroic Age Iron Man

Heroic Age Iron Man

While I usually shy away from collecting figures in scales other than 3.75-inch, I find it hard sometimes to resist buying characters or versions of characters when they made them in different scales.

Ultimate Armour Iron Man

Ultimate Armour Iron Man

This Iron Man was released as part of the last wave of Iron Man 2 action figures by Hasbro a couple of years ago. The mold is the exact same they used for the Mk. 2, Mk.3 and a couple of Concept Armors, with only a different paintjob.

Shatter Blaster Iron Man

Shatter Blaster Iron Man

So, within the same year, Hasbro saw fit to release yet another version of the Iron Man Mk. VII armor that debuted in the Avengers movie.

Iron Man (Classic Comic)

Iron Man (Classic Comic)

Since I’ve been playing Avengers Alliance on Facebook, I’ve had desire to add some comic style figure to fill out some of my Marvel lines. Since Iron Man figures are still fairly available on clearance round these parts I picked up a comic version of Iron Man. Appearance: Right up front the thing that drew […]

Iron Man Mk.VII (Fusion Armor)

Iron Man Mk.VII (Fusion Armor)

Well, after getting the Shield Launcher Captain America from the Avengers line and seeing it was not as bad as I feared, I convinced myself to go ahead and buy another figure, this time the Iron Man Mk.VII armor from the Movie Series sub-line.

Ivan “Whiplash” Vanko

Ivan “Whiplash” Vanko

When the visual checklists for the upcoming Iron Man 2 waves of figures were made public, around summer 2010, I was actually excited by the possibility of getting a figure of Whiplash in this collection.

Whiplash – Iron Man 2

Whiplash – Iron Man 2

I’ve been putting off writing this for almost a year. Why? Well hopefully by the end you will know. Whiplash is one of just a couple of figures in the Iron Man line with a human face. And I think we can be glad that number is limited. Appearance: Have you ever been really excited […]

War Machine (Mega Bloks)

War Machine (Mega Bloks)

I have to say as a character, I know very little of War Machine other than what I saw in Iron Man 2. However, that hasn’t seemed to keep from latching on to him as my Iron Man armor of choice. I got very lucky with this one. There was one open empty bag when […]

Heroclix War Machine

Heroclix War Machine

This is going to be a bit of a short one. I’m not a Heroclix player, but I couldn’t pass up a mini War Machine. This particular Marvel hero was a Free Comic Book Day 2o1o give away. My local shop, must have had a few left over and put them out this year to get […]

Iron Man (Modular Armor)

Iron Man (Modular Armor)

At this point, there are quite a lot of Iron Man figures still clinging to the pegs at stores, either from the Iron Man 2 movie line, or as part of the regular Marvel Universe assortments. However, for the Modular Armor version, Hasbro upped the ante just enough to merit yet another purchase.

Iron Man & Stilt Man Minimates

Iron Man & Stilt Man Minimates

I’ll admit I bough this for the Iron Man and had no idea who Stilt Man was. Following the pattern of one figure I want and one I’m not sure about, this pack was a bit of surprise. Now that I’ve had a chance to look him up, I know Stilt Man is Wilbur Day. […]

Iron Man Mark 1 – Iron Man 2 (Comic Version)

Iron Man Mark 1 – Iron Man 2 (Comic Version)

This wasn’t a figure I had planned on getting. If anything, I planned on getting the movie version. However, after finishing Essential Iron Man Volume 1, I changed my mind. I’d never really been an Iron Man fan. I’d be lying if I said the movie didn’t have anything to do with it. Of course, […]

Iron Man Mk.VI (Power Up Glow)

Iron Man Mk.VI (Power Up Glow)

As a matter of principle, I usually shun gimmick figures. In most cases these features are either hideous to look at or mess with the articulation in some way. In the case of this Iron Man figure it is the later scenario but as it turns out, the end result is quite above tolerable in that regard.

Iron Man (Extremis Armor)

Iron Man (Extremis Armor)

The most recent Iron Man version in the Marvel Universe line is this Extremis Armor Iron Man. The basics behind the new suit is that Tony Stark got infected by a nano-virus that bestowed upon him the ability to interface directly with the hardware and …

Classic Iron Monger

Classic Iron Monger

I fell for it. Normally, I can see repaints coming a mile off. In the case of the Classic Iron Monger, I missed it.

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” […]

Finally! Some more foes for Iron Man & War Machine are staring to show up in stores. I managed to score a Titanium Man recently.
