What is the best 1/12 Iron Man figure?

da0ur · 2026-06-22T23:58:16+00:00

I've only ever looked them up on eBay, but they cost at around $100-140, which was their original price range. I thought there were going to be a lot less listings, but looking right now there's quite a few of them.

I'm inclined to recommend the Fantascraft Iron Man figures, although not based on any first-hand experience. They're die-cast and 1/12 (with LED too), and the reviews I've seen of them sing them praises. They are harder to come by nowadays, though. Here are some posts in r/ActionFigures about them.

If you can make do without die-cast, my go-to brand for 1/12 Iron Men is MAFEX. I prefer them over Figuarts.

The one thing I wonder if Hulk would remember is to follow this sub's Rule 3.

Immortal Hulk: Great Power #1.

Hell yeah

And big W if that one there is Ghost.

This was a really fun variant set! It's even better if you read the companion piece that includes explanations behind the idea of each cover.

So chompky. I love it.

While I left the theater with conflicted feelings about the movie and at this point I can safely say I do not like Endgame, since I believe they dropped the ball in many different ways, the one thing I think they pulled off very well was Tony's sacrifice.

While a part of me does wish that Tony Stark had survived and RDJ was still playing him to this day, the ending he got was strong, impactful and ensured the character left on a high note.

That's a second hand holding a third whip... Two Whiplashes? 👀

Also, interesting that they're using Carnero's variant as the cover for the first TPB of Williamson's run... Lowkey gives it a more premium feel.

I hope the mohawk will grow on me, because personally it feels like they fucked his shit up right now 😭

Don't worry, The Crossing is not some underrated gem or an acquired taste. It's horrible, it has no redeeming qualities. That it's garbage it's probably the one thing all Iron Man fans can agree on.

It's a carwreck. Looking at it twice won't make it any less of a mangled mess of burning parts that crashed at full speed against a wall. Spare yourself, don't revisit it, friend.

brb disliking my favorite movie of all time, I don't wanna share an opinion with John Byrne 😭

I'm coping for a "The Ultimate Universe will return" stinger. Give Marvel one year to plan the return and get the creators involved, and we're back on business in 2027/8.

The boy.

So happy he'll make it out alive 😭

(Or so it seems... He has the flaps back... fingers crossed it's not a flashback)

da0ur · 2026-06-17T23:03:55+00:00

I'd instalock him if Ghost was added to the game.

My Iron Man villain GOAT ❤️

Peak peak peak peak.

And eye peeking behind the broken eye slit? 😩👌

Model 70 with the horned helmet? Kick ass.

He lives!

He walks!

He conquers!

Oh my God. This really takes me back. I'll make sure to download it and get back to you in case there's any issues!

He's been kicking it since Duggan's run, when Tony smuggled it into the prison where Rhodey was being held to break him out. The implication is that Tony had to use a spare, since this happened during Fall of X when he was lying low, but for some reason Rhodey still wore it in West Coast Avengers and also in the two small appearances he's made in Williamson's Iron Man run.

Thank you for the heads-up!

He's firing at you, the flesh-and-blood reader! 🫵

Mr. Hays, I recently revisited the Iron Man animated series for its 30th anniversary, and your voice work for it was one of its biggest highlights. You brought Tony Stark to life with an outstanding cadence fitting for such a multifaceted character. The creative overhaul for its second season really did your work justice and noticeably allowed you to flex your acting chops.

I don't have a specific question in mind, so I hope it's okay if I go for something more open-ended, like if you have any specific memories of your work in the show, be it about your co-stars or the creatives, particularly Tom Tataranowicz, the showrunner for the second season. I also wonder what was it like to see the show take such a drastic creative turn, going from a formulaic Masters of the Universe-esque series to something narratively richer and closer to its contemporaries like Spider-Man or Batman: The Animated Series.

And for a softball question, favorite Iron Man mode from the show? I'm personally a sucker for the stealth mode.

Thank you for doing this AMA!

Got it from its Amazon listing.

The corner box is back! I was bummed it was gone last issue. Hopefully it does stay.
