S.H. Figuarts War Machine Figure Bandai 2013 Iron Man 2

Supposedly “it’s better late than never”, but I feel like that expression is getting stretched just a little bit by the new Marvel figures just released by Bandai.

Yeah, as in, “The Iron Man movie from 2010”. But hey, even if the figures are a little late, at least Bandai is bringing something rockin’ to the table–the S.H. Figuarts Iron Man Mark VI and War Machine figures!

This year Hot Toys is raising prices and upgrading the Iron Man 3 figures to feature diecast parts, and the second figure in the new Hot Toys 1/6 Scale Diecast figure line will be the main “Iron Man 3” movie armor–the Iron Man Mark XLII…
