Greetings heroes/citizens. This is just a quick look at another newly released action figure from Diamond Select in the Marvel Select line. This is Marvel Select Iron Man. Retail price for this is also about $19.99-$2+.++.

Packaging; Same with the last Marvel Select nothing different besides the graphics and the plastic tray/bubble.

Design/sculpt; I am quite disappointed with the design,the hip’s ball joints was not covered by anything at all.It looks weird with that bulging ball joints.Also the wrists/palms was molded in a flight mode. Diamond Select at least should give another set of interchangeable fist. This Iron Man only looks good in flying pose, it sucks at standing still with no display base,but overall design is quite good.

Articulations; not bad, but I really hate those two hips ball joints. Really, I have no other complain about the articulations.

Colors; nice, I really loves the metallic red. I also have no complain about the color but, if you look closely mine have a finger print on the face. As always watch out for the joints, it will chipped if you move it too much.

Accessories; a display base and a blasting fire and smoke effect. Actually the smoke/fire should be put on to the display base, and guest what I forgot to take the picture of it. You can see it in the packaging.

Values; hmm… this is hard, what I can say is it’s not for everyone. I think big fan of Iron Man and those that collects statues/dioramas might like it as it have a very limited posing style.
