Mega Bloks Iron Man 2 Who's Buying?

Shin Densetsu · 03-13-2010, 03:41 PM

Anyone into the new Mega Bloks Iron Man 2 toys? A couple of them piqued my interest and I bought them. The magnetic ones are cool, similar if not the same, skeleton as the HALO figures. Not bad, albeit chunky in armored mode.

The suitcase set is AWESOME, well planned and executed aside from the somewhat flimsy tray. I plan on getting more figures from Mega Bloks Iron Man 2. I also got the techbot War Machine...which for $15+...is NOT BAD! The completed figure is rather tall and sturdy, the flight stand is GREAT too!

I've been thinking about picking some up to go with my MU or Minimates, just haven't had a chance to go look to compare scale, and which ones I want.

Definitely thinking about a Sentinel custom too. Mostly I just want the drones.
Debating on the smaller sets since I might want to do a minimates armory, but like I said haven't decided.

I saw the Mega Bloks Hall of Armor at Meijer and I was tempted to buy one, if only because someone finally made a Hall of Armor. If I give in and buy that set, or get it on clearance, I'll probably buy them all, but for now, I'm not going to buy any.

I bought it and I think it's worth the asking price. Pretty neat purchase. Wish it had 3 skeletons instead of just 1.

If they made figure packs like they did for the HaloBlox, sure, I'd get some. I got that "Aerial Assault" pack but really it's so terrible that I pretty much just ended up paying for the figure and its repulsor accessories.

The Mark IV has worse articulation than the HaloBlox Spartans, the ARC Reactor chest piece is just a simple white dot of paint, and as there's no wash on the figure unlike the Spartans, all of the details are lost in a tiny sea of red.

I've been so extremely disappointed by this company that I'm rather happy that they haven't made the figures I want easily accessible, that way I don't have to give them any more money. (Until HaloBlox wave 3 comes out, anyway.)
