Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I'm an avid collector of Marvel Legends Icons 12" figures. Although the Iron Man figure is pretty impressive, there are some qualities that are missing. First, the positives: very detailed. Possibly the most detailed Iron Man action figure you can find. One reason why I only collect this series of figures. The only thing that can possibly top it in detail would be the actualy replica head of Iron Man or a statue bust but still you would not own the whole Iron Man. Extremely poseable. These figures are nicer than the DC Direct figure or Movie Masters DC figures because the latter two look more like dolls with clothy material and have less articulation. The gold color really makes it similar to the Iron Man in the movies but not exactly accurate. The head is somewhat disappointing because the face mask looks hideous. The effort to make it removeable so you can see Stark's face ruins the look of the face plate. Stark is not a man in superhero physical shape, however they might have made this figure somewhat too lanky and tall so it has a slight problem standing up by itself as opposed to more balanced and bulked figures like Wolverine or the Hulk (my favorite). Finally, the figure comes with nice repulsor rays that you can attach to the palms of his hands. However, and this what I don't understand, you can't bend his hands 90 degrees back with palms facing you because of the poor design of his wrist that locks any movement going to other way. That is so pointless given this is a common movement for Iron Man so he can attack his enemies with his repulsor rays. I can easily do this movement with my Wolverine figure so not sure what the deal is with Iron Man.
