The Vision is not a variant, the phasing version is the variant as Iceman pointed out. The Vision is the rarest figure out there going by confirmed production numbers. That is a very valid reason as to why he is so expensive....supply and demand. He was single packed and omitted from several cases due to factory error.



David Vonner...if you don't know that name Google him straight away... was 100% the man behind the MU line. All things great and glorious are credited to him. In fact, he even championed for rocker ankles.because fans demanded it, they are known, to some, as Vonner ankles even. Anyway, according to a famous podcast... Vonner himself claims that ONLY 125 of solid figures of THE VISION were ever made.... truth or myth, up for debate. There has even been a "roll call" on other sites before to try and debunk his statement.... did not prove him.wrong. Perhaps it is true, perhaps it isnt- who knows. If ANY other person said it, no biggie... write it off. Since IT WAS him, his statement has a lot of validity. If ANY human on Earth would know....it WOULD be him. He is a no nonsense sort of guy, if he didn't mean it he wouldn't say it. Those facts alone, one must seriously consider that his numbers are correct or at least close. That would make The Vision one of the lowest produced mass market releases from Hasbro ever.

That aside, The Vision is a key Avenger member and without question (at least to me) the GREATEST paint job on ANY action figure in ANY toy line ever made. Even his wee cape slightly glistens in the sun in its sparkly glory. I have said it before and I will say it again, he looks like a hot rod with his paint. So bright and shiny and colourful. He stands out immediately in any collection pic. Even the phasing variant looks cool (I have never seen in person though) but looks great with light flooding through him.
