Here is a link with more pics including movie related figures of Hasbro's 2010 Iron Man Action Figures.

I wish those Iron Man 2 Comic Series figures were in 6-inch scale rather than 3.75.

I really like that Crimson Dynamo. Good looking figures over all.

*sigh* I guess Marvel Legends really, truly, is a dead line of toys. 

Time to haul all the remainder of my 6" Toy Biz figures down to the shop to trade them in - I'm not going to collect Marvel characters again as long as Hasbro is running them into the ground.

There are at least six (possibly up to 16-18) Marvel Legends figures coming out in 2010, including these three:

…it's all I can think of when I see these "action figures".

The Hasbro line is terrible.  I'm guess they figure that people will buy anything.  Ugly.

Yeah, I used to buy the occasional Marvel Legends figure when Toy Biz had the license. (case in point, the Wolverine that's my avatar). Hasbro really sucked the life out of them. The only figure that should have that sort of articulation is Spider-Man. It's just ridiculous and unnecessary for anyone else.

There are toy collectors out there who prefer articulation to the more static sculpts that McFarlane and DC Direct put out. I think Mattel does a good job of making figures that look good yet still have some flexibility in posing with the DC Universe Classics and Masters of the Universe Classics lines. But even with those figures you can have some funky joints.
