Iron Man Legends Crimson Dynamo And Titanium Man

Iron Man Armored Avenger Legends Crimson Dynamo

Nice pics, I already found Titanium man last week at my local Zellers which would be the same as Target in the States. He was like $16.99, amazing toy, sculpt, paint and articulation are great, definatley worth the $$, except for Titanium Man and Hulkbuster, the Iron man and War Machine are identical to the walmart exclusive figures. The revamped anime style War Machine and Crimson Dynamo from the 2nd wave are a different subject these are brand new molds, sculpts, and paint schemes, definatley will grab these if I run into them,... little extra $ /figure but it's twice as much plastic as MU figure so it's justified.

Not completely brand new, crimson dynamo was tooled for the 1st iron man movie line but along with titanium man, was canceled. Initiative war machine is a retooled stealth striker iron man from one of the last waves of the 1st movie line.

I knew Hulkbuster was a retooled version of the 1 of the 3 pack figures, and I remember Titanium Man from the Iron Man 1 movie line , never picked it up but looked garbage to me... this 1 is pure win, very happy with the toy, Crymson Dynamo and that newer War Machine are the remaining notables I'm going to look for.

I remember that Titanium Man, I have it, but this "new" one, was tooled and ready to go, it showed up in the booths of SDCC in 2009, and we did have images of it.

What's interesting is that I think we have a shot of the "new" Hulkbuster, in that same case too. Slightly different case. All of the figures that ended up in the TRU 3 pack were shown in the case too.

Up until today, before I looked at the post again, I hadn't realized that the "new" Hulkbuster wasn't exactly new. I think it's possible that the Initiative War Machine may have been planned towards the end of the 1st Iron Man line, but like the others, canceled.

yeah the hulkbuster is the concept series heavy artillery iron man which original colors were a crimson blood red and black its a sick figure, the only difference is the helmet addition. its arguable the best design from the first movies concept series so if you didn't get one back then due to it being super rare Id suggest picking it up its a great addition to any collection.
