IRON MAN 2 Figures
 
Iron Man 2 is officially headed our way and with it is coming so many great toys. I always loved Crimson Dynamo as a kid, and he remains one of my favorite characters. I was really glad to see that Hasbro finally included a version of him I could be proud to own. He does have a few flaws that set him back from being a "perfect" figure though. I break it all down in my latest review. Check it out over at Infinite Hollywood!

Cool review man. I just picked up War Machine and I love it.

Great review. I have mark III Iron Man and Crimson Dynamo. I hope I find War Machine soon.

You didn't see Iron Man 2 figures three months ago. You must have seen left over Iron Man 1 toys. These guys didn't hit til a couple weeks back. Or you have a time machine.

Ohhh no, Newty. Don't try to convince me elsewise. They were the little chibi Super Hero Squad multi-packs. One was Hi-Tech Showdown and the other was Armor Wars. Saw 'em back in January.

The standard figures, I didn't see until last week, however.

Ah, well that's completely different then. :o

As for you Brodie, are you talking the comic pack Thor or the next regular MU singles? The comic pack version (classic Thor) is already out, but the other version should be hitting in the next couple of weeks. It's already showing up in some areas.

Still, they're branded Iron Man 2, and I was surprised that they were out so early. I'm even more surprised now that I know the film's coming out in May... I thought seeing Fast Forward figures two months before the show aired was nuts, but five months before a movie? Man, marketing is weird.

Brodie 03-10-2010 07:11 PM

I was talking about the new version, based on contemporary Thor. Not the comic pack.

Toonami Tom 03-10-2010 09:58 PM

I went to Target tonight and bought Mark II Iron Man and comic series first appearance Iron Man. I was disappointed that War Machine wasn't there.

I also bought the 4" Spider-Man and Venom from the new Spider-Man toyline.

Newton Gimmick 03-10-2010 10:06 PM

Iron Man might be the star of the show, but War Machine's got the bigger guns. Hasbro has really done a great job on these figures and War Machine shines as one of the best Iron Man 2 figures. He also has one really big glaring problem too.

Infinite Hollywood: War Machine (Comic Edition) Figure Review

Check out the full review as we continue our March of the Robots month.

Toonami Tom 03-10-2010 10:19 PM

Awesome review, and the pictures were great too. I look forward to finding a War Machine figure.

I have an Iron Monger from the first Iron Man movie toyline. He's more accurately scaled to the Iron Man 2 figures, right? So, that said, should I not get the Iron Monger figure from Iron Man 2?

Ninjinister 03-10-2010 10:56 PM

I have that Iron Monger pictured...

He's an Utrominator now.

I like both. The smaller one is more detailed. Is he passable? Certainly, but he does make a cool figure to have as well. Even if you have the bigger one.

Newton Gimmick 03-26-2010 08:24 PM

To add to the review fun, I've got my review up of Iron Monger over at the site. I think this is still a decent buy even if you have the larger, old Monger, but you can check out the comparisons and decide for yourself. I've bought a ton of the Mongers for various reasons in the last year or so.
