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” […]

Iron Monger – Iron Man 2

While I was waiting for Iron Man 2 to come out, I thought it would be a good time to revisit the first film on DVD. I was surprised to find out there was a good part of that I hadn’t remembered. One thing that I didn’t forget was the battle royal at the end between Iron […]

Iron Man Mark VI – Iron Man 2

This was actually one of the first of the Iron Man 2 figures I bought. Why did I wait so long to review it? Well, I really wanted to wait until I saw the film to understand if there was really anything different in this suit.

Iron Man Mark V – Iron Man 2

Iron Man Mark V – Iron Man 2

The concept behind the Mk. 5 Iron Man armor is fairly simple. Regular Iron Man armor is not that easy to transport nor conceal, therefore Stark developed a bare-bones version that can be lugged around in the form of a large suitcase.

War Machine -Iron Man 2 (Movie Version)

War Machine -Iron Man 2 (Movie Version)

After being truely enthralled with the comic version of War Machine, I couldn’t help but pick up the movie version of the character. The early photos and promo materials show that on screen War Machine is much like his comic book  namesake. He’s bigger and more heavily armed than the armored suit that Tony Stark wears. We […]

I should start this by clarifying that this is the comic version released as part of the Iron Man 2 movie line. There should be a couple more versions coming out of the movie version of War Machine. If you’re not a big fan of Iron Man, you will want to know that this is […]

Gambit (Toy Biz)

Gambit (Toy Biz)

I’ll admit it. I wasn’t an X-men fan until the cartoon. When I was a kid I never really cared for the big team books that arc across several issues. That said the animated X-men had some cool characters with some interesting powers. My favorite of the band of animated mutants was Gambit. I’ve always associated with the loner […]
