We need a figure of THAT armor!

Of all of my Marvel Select figures, The Watcher just might be my favorite

The new Immortal Hulk comes close, because his design and awesome articulation make him, ostensibly, a scaled-up Marvel Legends figure.
The Watcher is especially impressive since his design has held up REALLY well for a figure that was originally released nearly two decades ago. Until a friend reminded me recently, I had forgotten that he was originally released in 2005 !

It makes me so happy to find someone else who appreciates Paul Ryan's art ! As much as I love his F4 art, it pains me to admit that I've never read any of his Avengers or Iron Man stuff, but I'm definitely going to add them to my "must-read" list !

EDIT : Damn, it just occurred to me that my profile pic, of Franklin Richards, is from one of Ryan's issues of Fantastic Four !
