Hasbro Iron Man Legends Series 2 Pre-Order Available on AmiAmi.com – Arrives in April

Iron Man 3 Marvel Legneds Series 2 - Iron Man Mark 42 Iron Man 3 Marvel Legneds Series 2 - Iron Patriot (Movie) Iron Man 3 Marvel Legneds Series 2 - Ultron

The second wave of Iron Man Legends that Hasbro revealed at Toy Fair is scheduled to arrive in late April, according to Japanese online retailer AmiAmi.com. They have “provisional” pre-orders (meaning that they may not be able to fulfill all of them depending on how much product they’ll be able to get) for the Mark 42 armor of Iron Man, the movie version of Iron Patriot, and Ultron. The late April date makes sense, since it aligns nicely with the May 3 opening of Iron Man 3, but I haven’t yet seen pre-orders go up at US online retailers like AFP sponsor BigBadToyStore, for example.

If you are still looking for series one of Iron Man Legends (with the Heroic Age / Bleeding Edge IM, comic Iron Patriot, and classic horned Iron Man), it looks like Amazon sold through their allotment, although you can still get them from other retailers selling through them – search for Iron Man Legends on Amazon. BigBadToyStore still has sets of Iron Man Legends series 1 for $49.99.

 

Hot Toys Iron Monger Will Crush Your Head

Hot Toys Iron Monger (1 of 8)

You don’t think I post Steals and Deals here but don’t partake, do you? When the 25% off plus free shipping deal at the Marvel Store was here last weekend, I picked up an Iron Monger. I had it on pre-order a while back, but had second thoughts, primarily about the price. But this sale tested my willpower, and I’m sad to say I’ll never become a Green Lantern. But frankly, I don’t care, because the Hot Toys Iron Monger was a steal at 25% off, and if you pay full price it’s worth every penny.

ThreeA Toys to Collaborate with Marvel Comics on Re-Imagined 1/6 Scale Action Figure Line

3A Toys Marvel Collaboration

3A Toys is making Marvel Comics 1/6 scale action figures? For me, it’s a dream and a nightmare. I can’t wait to see what Ashley Wood comes up with for his re-imagined versions of Marvel heroes and villains, but I also pity my wallet and my ability to delay gratification. I hope 3A doesn’t stray too far from the classic looks of its characters. They’re a natural for any armored or mech characters (but really, how many 1/6 collectors already have a ton of Iron Man figures?) but I’d want to see how they can handle clothing apps for spandex – not quite the same thing as boiler suits and cargo pants.

One thing that could get me feeling lukewarm on these is if 3A uses its very unique style for its human head sculpts. Right now I can’t see that meshing too well with Marvel. Still – can’t wait to see some of these come to life!
