My nephew loved it.October 23, 2008 I bought this toy for my nephew who is an Ironman fan. He LOVED the toy. He was thrilled with it and loved everything about it. It has very little educational value, but then again, why buy an action figure as an educational toy?
Cool Figure, Awesome FeaturesAugust 24, 2008 This is my far beyond favorite figure of Iron Man in the Mark 3 armor. I have alot of ideas for the future with this figure. I will repaint it as the Mark 2, and then make pieces to go on it to look like the Mark 1. I am definetly going to display this figure with my Marvel Crossovers Iron Man. I hope they make one of this figure in all three stages of the armor.
Another addition to the Why Didn't They Have This When I Was A Kid? file!July 20, 2008 My 4 yr. old son loves this toy! More than two-and-a-half months after buying it for him, he still plays with it all of the time, takes it with him in the car whenever we let him, and has vanquished many an Evil Doer with a well-placed "Repulsor Blast!"
I can't imagine Tony Stark's armor being much tougher than this action figure. It gets "flown" into all types of surfaces at various rates of impact, and even the finely detailed fingers are still intact. The makers went the "extra mile" by including not just an "on" and "off" setting, but one in-between that silences the "whooshing" jet boot noise (which continues until Iron Man "lands" again...oh joy, haha), but still allows the sound effects/speech that occur when pressing the chest or arm buttons! (And speaking of those boot sound effects, we have had NONE of the problems in some other reviews of the boot switch not working that triggers the sound on and off for taking off or landing.)
I have only two minor complaints. First, there are some limits to the articulation of the arms, legs, and head. No
Iron man action figureJuly 2, 2008 Action figure takes a beating from my 4 yeard old. There are barely any scratches and all the features work great. Excellent item.
Finally!June 24, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
It seems like I've been waiting just about forever for someone to release a 12" scale Iron Man figure. My wait came to an end with the arrival of the Repulsor Power Iron Man figure from Hasbro's Iron Man movie toy line.
This isn't a perfect figure, but it's still pretty impressive. It's very close in appearance - if not scale - to the movie Iron Man, and the attention to detail is quite good. The head seems way small, especially if there's supposed to be a person in there. I would love to have seen a version of this figure with a removable helmet.
On the plus side, the electronic features are extremely cool. Beyond a few stock phrases ("I am Iron Man", "Repulsor Blast", "Switching to Auxiliary Power"), the figure also has a light up torso and left hand repulsor, and features motion activated sound effects for flight and landing (there's a trigger on the right boot) as well as repulsor sounds when the left arm is moved.
On the minus side, the figure is not as articulated as I had hoped. The head moves, as do the arms (but only forward), elbows, legs, and knees. The wrists do not move, which is understandable at least on the right hand with its missile launcher. The ankles do not move either, which is a bit disappointing. Of course, my figure will spend 99.9% of its time displayed on a bookshelf, so articulation is a relatively minor concern for me.
Small gripes aside, this is about as good an Iron Man figure as I had hoped for, and is a welcome addition to my 12" figure collection. It also withstood my 2-year-old's "intensive product testing", so I'll probably end up buying another for his upcoming birthday.
