    Yea, it really is. I just don’t know about jumping into these. They are showing me what hasbro is not. I would mix these with marvel legends. Anyone know what the scale is like compared to hasbro?

    I also want the final battle Thor from s.h. , as hasbro for some reason has quit with the Disney mcu.

    They generally runs a bit smaller. My Figurart Black Widow is 14.5 cm while the Hasbro Black Widow is 15 cm. Which is fine for female characters, since Scarlet Jo is shorter while standing next to his male counterparts anyway. I don't know about male figures though. It depends on how uptight you are about scale.

    Well, Hasbro did give us the Fat Thor. So there's that.

    They are a tad smaller, don't 100% work with Legends. You can fudge it on a tight shelf but 1 on 1 most times won't work.

    It all depends, like I had both the first ML and SHF Black Panthers and they were pretty much identical (I took the ML head for the SHF). Females are always tiny for SHF which is annoying. But other ML are definitely a bit bigger. Marvel Legends even seem larger in comparison to Black Series. But either way probably not too far off, I'd just order one to check out if you haven't. The new Mk 1 and this Tony would make a great set just by themselves.

    Accessories are cool and a nice suit however something looks wrong with the eyes for me on the face sculpt I'm thinking. Last few SHF MCU figures unmasked heads have been a bit off in the eyes (like the Final battle versions) which has me concerned.
    For this figure, it looks like a arguably slightly better but still similar to the Legends Tony for the headsculpt. Iron Man 1 was the best of the trilogy and one of the MCUs better movies but I'm on the fence with this figure.

    99% of the time you'll be far enough away from these figures that you won't even notice the eye paint, so I wouldn't worry too much about it.
