All those iron mens and the two war machines were mostly different molds. I had nearly all of them as a kid. The only two that shared any obvious base body parts that were the same were the basic modular and the hydro armor. And even they had a few small differences still besides wildly different paint schemes. Even the two war machines had some differences besides the vac-metallized armor they all had that was completely different. That's what made the line fun though. Mixing all those armors up to make your own Iron Man was a blast. I always preferred the Inferno Iron Man buck with inferno gauntlets, belt, and shoulders, but used basic iron man's boots and chest pieces. Inferno Iron Man had a more interesting head. Never did get Samurai Iron Man though and I skipped the Silver Centurion armor they did. Subteranean armor was awesome too though. And the Hulkbuster I've since used to kit bash into a different hulk-buster now. Titanium Man was bad ass too. Never did manage to get Crimson Dynamo though.

But it was all about Spider-Man and the X-Men growing up. That's part of the reason why my first two tattoos were and X-Men "X" and a Venom spider. No Avengers "A" on my arm, haha. Don't get me wrong, I am happy about the Avengers success, but I would like to see the X-Men up at the top again. Just look at the old 90's toys. We got obscure characters that only appeared in a few issues. We're not getting that with Legends. I'd take a Tusk or Killspree, haha.

A lot of that was also because of the background cameos in the toon. Tusk was in an episode himself. As were many others. They really pushed that envelope on crowd scenes too. Shame the only Nimrod we got was the one off X-Force one though, and not the one in the toon that was more classic comic inspired.
