Do you guys consider the MU and Ironman 2 line in the same universe, At least the Comic series?
For comic series yes, with that said however, some of the figures could have been better. Look at the Advanced and Arctic Armors, both of which seem underscaled. I get that the newer armors are supposed to be increasingly streamlined, but the physique and silhouette(s) remind me more of a teenage Stark, compared to the Classic armors(Classic, Stealth, Ditko horns). I wonder if the same design team worked on both lines. It's cool to see them one up each other, perhaps a friendly rivalry involved.

For example, check out Classic Iron Man from Marvel Universe wave 3. Compare it to Iron Man 2 Comic Series wave 1 Classic Iron Man. The latter blows the former away. The MU version looks scrawny, and leg articulation is not as good. While the MU version blows away the 1st Marvel Universe Iron Man(arguably), the Classic Iron Man from the IM2 line trumps both.

Other notables include Silver Centurion and Hulkbuster. Then came Extremis and Bleeding Edge from MU. So far, I think the Extremis and Bleeding Edge armors are how small scale Iron Man figures from here on out should be made. Bleeding Edge rules.

Hey Hasbro if you make a true modular armor for Marvel Universe; CAN I HAZ ANKLE JOINTS LIKE ON BLEEDING EDGE IRON MAN?
