New 8" Ironman!

[The Bat]

Well, yes and no. If Mattel has authorised these 8" figures, is there any chance they'll authorise another 8" line?

I think that might depend on how well Mattel's WGSH line does.

Awe...come on BK. Just the fact that they're starting to make 8" Figures has got to be a good thing right?

Or at the very least...some of the Heads might be in 8" scale...and we can use them for Customs?

That might work, if the sculpts are any good. And maybe some of these will come with in scale accessories

Just by looking at the way it's packaged, it reminds me of the roto molded toy biz stuff from a few years back, maybe it's a "figure" along those lines.

It is neat that they are trying to do an 8 inch scale though, and you might be right this might be in response to Mattel's recent efforts. When is Iron Man 2 coming out again? It might not be in time for a Christmas toy release.

Not from Dane.

Awe...come on BK. Just the fact that they're starting to make 8" Figures has got to be a good thing right? Maybe it's the start of a trend...and the Figures will get better. Or at the very least...some of the Heads might be in 8" scale...and we can use them for Customs?
Personally...I like this Ironman, and plan to buy one.

[Meule]

I dunno, I was expecting a skinny, ugly, plastic action figure, weren't you?

[BlackKnight]

^^^ Not for the Audience that the thread was suggested for though .

[Meule]

hhhmmm.... I think the Title of this Thread is Misleading.

It's new, it's Ironman and it's 8", so technically the title is correct

So does Iron Man have the triangle chest piece in this one?

Good Eye...they did mention it was a new Armor(march 2 perhaps?).

But that's Mego's charm

Yes...I will agree that they had an old fashion charm about them.

[Meule]

Right...and the original Megos were so "buff" right?

No, Megos weren't buff either, but this one just doesn't look right to me.

Plus...never really thought Ironman work well in a Cloth Costume. It just can't possibly look like Metal.

[DocDrako]

I think my son would love it. I'll keep my eyes open for the Christmas season.

[The Bat]

Anorexic indeed
He might be good for a few parts... maybe...=

Right...and the original Megos were so "buff" right? My point in posting this was...just the fact that they are even doing a Figure in 8" scale is amazing. For years I've been looking, and never seen it. Now, on the eve of Mattel's WGSH...suddenly Marvel is starting to make 8" scale figures? Not a coincidence me thinks.
