February 25, 2010 - Iron man 2 figures: Movie line

A few weeks ago, I was lucky enough to get my hands on these two little guys from the 3.75 in. movie line from the upcoming iron man 2 toys. What can I say? these units translate quite well over to the small scale line.
Articulation points remain the same and the added fun factor that comes with small scale figure increases as well. Yay for desktoys! The mark III looks great. details are very nice. Proportions are very good. The joints were really stiff fresh outta the box, but after some intense posing sessions, this little dude is just perfect. Joints are looser, but hold very firm. It still has the "hasbro" hip joints though,ugh. Most toys from movie lines seem to have these where Marvel Universe figures have pegged legs. However, at least this way, the option of thigh swivel are available.
The Iron monger is pretty much a spot on smaller scale replica of his 6 inch big brother. Very nice. Detail on him is also really great. For toys that are made with soft pvc for young ages and up, have lame accessories, these are really nice. Now imagine if a smale scale figure line tried their hand at these. A revoltech iron man? Imagine the awesomenesss. heh. Coming later, the hypervelocity armor from the concept armor line. Later.
