somehow i missed this back when it was announced for SDCC but this is now on my AutoBuy list as this is one of my favorite armors along with Silver Centurion and Modular which I hope we will eventually get at an affordable rate.

I was kind of amazed we didn't get the Modular armor in 3.75 inch form during the IM2 line. Makes me wonder if it was held back for Marvel Universe or Avengers, since it's pretty much the most prominent armor he's worn that hasn't been made in 3.75 inch form (and its' 6 inch version is relatively rare).
Honestly, the modular armor and the "Retro"/Heroes Return armor are really the last two "major" suits to be made. -Maybe- the telepresence suit, but he didn't wear/use that very long. I guess the Heroes Reborn armor in 3.75 inch form still needs to be done, too. |

6", the 3-3/4" one was in Comic Series wave 2 of the Iron Man 2 line last year.

Too bad they're making the same mistake with the shoulder armor as they did with the 3.75" figure- it realy limits articulation.
Better for them to have used this version shoulder armor of the same suit: Regarding that prototype...I hope they change the head- it looks to big for the body to be in proportion. |

I so want this. Just wish they'd get rid of those damned hips.
Really hoping they upsize the bleeding edge armor, like they did for the extremis figure when they start back releasing marvel legends |

It should be on a peg or nubs that go into the top of the arm/shoulder so he can lift his arm forward without the armor needing to be hinged completely off his arm. Marvel Universe Extremis armor got it right. Ironman 3.75" used this hinge system on many of their figs and it was one of my biggest beefs.
