The Series 1 Toybiz one is bulkier and bigger (which I like as I plan on having him displayed next to Face Off Cap) plus he fits in better with the War Machine that I already have. Unfortunately, he has gorilla arms syndrome.

Then there's Hasbro's take on it, which I think has better proportions overall, but he's too tiny and the lack of ankle pivot kinda bothers me.

I've owned both and I prefer the Hasbro version. The rotation joint at the shoulder was always hard to move on the Toy Biz version. My Series 3 Magneto and the Silver Centurion were the same way too (they were all retools of the classic IM armor).

While the Hasbro one is smaller, the classic Iron Man armor wasn't very bulky. It was mostly for protection, flight and repulsor blasts with a few electronics here and there. You can check out some shots here:
