Original Iron Man

Series: Iron Man 2, Marvel Universe

Release Date: 2/2010

In support of the upcoming Iron Man 2 movie, HASBRO is releasing a full toy line in the 3 3/4″ scale.  While the product has a street date of March 1st some product is trickling out and will be widely available in 2 weeks.

The toys supporting ‘Iron Man’ kinda sucked.  They were big and there weren’t very man of them.  If this original Iron Man figure is any indication, we’re in for a heck of a ride for ‘Iron Man 2’.  This figure is one of the best yet of the 3 3/4″ scale Marvel figures.  The figure is still well articulated, but unlike other Marvel Universe figures, it feels very sturdy.  The sculpt is good and the deco is also above average (admittedly this doesn’t have a very detailed paint scheme).  And while not pictured, the armor cards that accompanied the figures were quite cool – by pairing different sets of cards up you can create your own armor.  Very cool and I’m looking forward to seeing what other Iron Men are available when the full line hits.  Great work Hasbro!
