Iron man is about the only character most of us can stomach repaints for and even then its either the nicer of the armours or you get em all because that's the type of collector you are. I have a harder time finding them let alone appreciating them, and when the alternative is buying through ebay or online hasbro loses points for availability. The constant repacks,remolds and repaints is enough to drive someone bonkers, SDCC stuff costing us a fortune and sometimes having the best figures. Or the figures we really want like redskull,crossbones,vision, archangle etc are uneven odds. Then once you find the damn figure the face is all fucked looking or an arm breaks off... sometime I wonder if I should just stop collecting this scale all together, But then I see a a figure like the Jim Lee Cyclops and my heart melts a little and I forget all about the nasty things I said..... " I'm an Asshole".

Iron Man is David Bowie like when it comes the the Armors because he doesn't stick with one that long these days I mean look at the last 3: the original Extremis was around the time of Avengers Disassembled until right before Civil War & then we had the newer one until 09 since he downgraded & took us back throught time on all of his Armors (which makes me want that Safe/Sentinet Armor he took on after he slept with Hill) & now he has the bleeding edge one which will sadly change is about 2,3,or 4 years give or take but I like the armors so why not buy almost all of them y'know?
