I've got my review for the IM2 figures I found last weekend up - and they keep growing on me every day! http://www.actionfigureblues.com/2010/03/these-tiny-little-metal-dudes-make-me.html |

I passed on the movie ones and stuck to the comic series. More because I have enough modern looking IM figures in that scale (thanks MU).

I bought a couple comic figures, well, I bought a bunch of the figures, all the IM Armor variants, but then I learned there was going to be a 6 inch line at Walmart, so I'm returning everything except the two I already opened (Crimson Dynamo and Comic War Machine), to await the glorious day when I find new 6" Marvel Legends. Or close enough to anyway.
They're really great looking figures for this scale though.

Does anyone know what's in the 6" line yet? |

I've got the Hypervelocity concept armor so far, and am looking to get the War Machine (movie and comic) soon, as well as Crimson Dynamo. After that I will be looking for Hulkbuster and a proper movie version of Iron Man and Titanium Man will rely on either a good review or in hand decision making.

Cool! Thanks for that Ryan (have a point!). Not quite the Guardsman or Crimson Dynamo I was hoping for. I've got the Hypervelocity concept armor so far, and am looking to get the War Machine (movie and comic) soon, as well as Crimson Dynamo. After that I will be looking for Hulkbuster and a proper movie version of Iron Man and Titanium Man will rely on either a good review or in hand decision making.
Makes you wonder if he's flying over the Sahara in his desert armour then needs to head to the Arctic, does he need to go home and change first? |

I finally caved and snagged Warmachine (comic). He is quite awesome, though his joint have this odd sort of ratcheted feel (they have only a handful of positions that feel natural), and his should pads actually annoy me more than I figured they would, but damn I wish MU were at the same price point as this. Will be going back for more (The black widow in wave 2 should be outstanding with a decent paint job).

Yeah, his armors are so specialized that it does make one wonder, would his Hypervelocity armor not function in the arctic? Also I picked up Comic War Machine, sadly while he looks incredible his articulation is ridiculously hindered by the gorgeous sculpt, as well as Crimson Dynamo who is incredible.

Feedback seems to be largely positive for this line. Here's to Crapsbro getting something right. Now don't blow it and drop the ball on subsequent stuff.

I would definitely say that overall I am satisfied with the toy line so far. I have three figures from Iron Man 2 so far; Crimson Dynamo who is awesome and nearly perfect in my opinion, Hypervelocity looks great but has some slightly limited articulation due to design. I am actually a little disappointed with War Machine though, he is gorgeous but not only does the design severely hinder the pose-ability but the joints on WM are quite stiff with an oddly ratcheted shoulder.
