[shadow=red,left,300] WHO OR WHAT, IS THE NEWEST, MOST BREATH-TAKING MOST SENSATIONAL SUPER HERO OF ALL...?[/shadow] who?WHO?WHO?HE LIVES! HE WALKS! ... he needs a drink. ;D hasbro's Iron Man action figure with removable armor looks pretty spiffy, yet lacks a lot from his toybiz counterparts. but nonetheless, he has his selling points: a good shiny paint job, more removable armor parts, very accurate molding to the movie design, but like i said, this is HASBRO we're talking about. they are costly toys, but they are far from feature-friendly. for one, he lacks some of the more elaborate articulation, and well produced facial detail(sculpted beard and eyebrows, cleanly applied paint on the eyes lips and cheeks) of the original toybiz figures, i don't understand how this thing is worth 700Php, and the original ML iron men cost only 300-500, and they even kicked more arse than this one. but he is only one of many cool looking movie figures so i can never really be sure... he can be posed in heroic, statuesque, and some awkward poses(like passed out outside a liquor store), and he is still very well recommended if you fancy iron man with removable parts and Adi-Granov like aesthetic quality. some comparison pics: toybiz iron man: whoa, it's 4am already?toybiz iron man: dude, you gonna be okay?hasbro iron man: i think i barfed inside my helmet(forgive me, i used to be a fan of Twisted Toyfare Theater ;D)

Non-sense trivia: Did you know that people thought that Black Sabbath's song of the same title, was inspired by this Marvel hero?

@ neil: ferarri?
@17: there was a song about him? i need to wiki this guy more. ;D
thats where i got the idea, it's a well known fact nowadays with comic geeks that 25 years ago, tony stark fought an inner battle with alcoholism in the story-arc: Demon in a Bottle. and this had affected him in subsequent issues.
recently with the hype of the movie, and this long funny and worn-out joke, he has become a sort of meme, in various other forums, used for comedic effect. and casting robert downey jr, really dosen't help remedy that, but hey he seems made for the role so i don't mind it at all. ;D
