KaiyodoKaiyodo Iron Man Revoltech SciFi Super Poseable Action Figure #031 War Machine

IRON MAN - the War Machine.This is a pretty awesome figure. There is plenty of articulation and the unit itself has exceeded my expectation in terms of detail and paint job. The figure has a bit of a weight to it (compared to the other revoltech figures that I have). It comes with that shoulder gatling-gun, which you can lean from the left shoulder to the right shoulder and pretty much aim it everywhere you want. There are a total of 3 pairs of hands (open palm, closed fist, and another that looks like its for flight). It comes with 3 fire/firing item thingy that you can attach to the gatling gun and the arm guns. There is a little orange box, as true with most Revoltech figures, to keep your small pieces.Pros: The figure is very accurate in terms of color and detail. There is plenty of articulation that can be used to pose this guy to numerous stances. The figure is steady enough to stand and kneel on its own. Pretty solid feel. Awesome looking gatling gun and arm guns. Lots of cool poses that you can do with the figures.Cons: The figure only comes with a few too little accessories. (I wish there was more stuff in it). I wish this comes with either Rodey's or Tony's face.Recommendation: I vote get it... maybe wait a bit for the price to come down a bit... This is a pretty awesome figure. I would get more of it and give it away as gifts for ANYONE who like the Ironman movies.Hey let me know if you have any questions about the figure - pls click the useful if it is... so that others will see this review as well...Thank you!

Growing up as a heavyset fair-skinned redheaded white boy in an all black home in an high-rise apartment complext in Mississippi was an enjoyable experience. It wasn't until my sweet seventeenth birthday at Popeye's Chicken (everyone in my family worked there so it was easier to hold birthday parties there) that I began to question the validity of my origins.The thing is, no one ever said anything to me about it. In a family of nine kids and Big Momma, everyone had their responsibilities and it always seemed to work out well. Having never seen my dad, I constructed some heroic image of what he would be like. Somewhere along the lines of Dirk Benedict from 'Battlestar Galactica' and Lee Majors from 'Fall Guy' and rechargeable hearing aid fame.Both, with red hair.I was at my birthday party that a tall thin black man showed up at Popeye's. It wasn't until a few of my older siblings exclaimed "dad!!" that I really took notice of the man. big Momma, always had a happy disposition, but I've never seen Big Momma so angry. Still being on shift, when she looked up and saw the man my siblings called "dad", she dropped the fresh biscuits from the oven, jumped over the counter with an ice cold jug of cane iced tea and smashed it on the side of his face.That poor man did not stand a chance against her never before seen wraith.It was at that time, that I began to question my parental origins.The cops showed up and took the man away. Turns out he had a restraining order from all of us and went back to prison.Later that night, when everyone was asleep, Big Momma came into my bedroom dressed in her nightgown and sat on the edge of my bed. It was then that I learned of my true origins.As an infant, I was left on the loading dock at Popeye's chicken. Big Momma took me in and raised me as one of her own. The man I saw today was prettymuch out of the picture and spent most of the time in and out of prison.War Machine has always been one of my favorite comic book characters. The message he sends to everyone, is that no matter what we look like on the outside, we all have or long to have a black man inside of us.I do like that the figure is a bit stylized in it's bulk compared to the "real" movie counterpart, but in getting this action figure, I had hoped that it would of revealed that inner black man, but the mask did not come off.Much like my life, I am confused as to who or what is really inside.

This figure has the perfect combination of paint application, sculpt, and articulation. That being said, do not buy this figure if you collect six inch scale or larger. It is not worth the asking price in my opinion. I bought a 1/4 scale NECA predator for around the same price that I paid for this figure. It is cheaper now then it was originally, but I do not feel that this figure is worth more than $35-40.The figure is very small. I would love for Revoltech to start making 6,7,1/6, or even 1/4 scale figures. This is the smallest figure I own, and i still display it, but I do not like the scale. If you collect smaller scale figures, this is easily a five star figure.Pros:Excellent sculptExcellent paintExcellent articulationCons:CostScaleDifficulty standing up

This war machine action figure is very nice, super realistic, and great details. Not for kids. The box is very cool. The figure is smaller than I expected for the prize.
