Comic Statues & Busts: Marvel Legends War Machine from Marvel Legends

From the Galactus Series, (or Series 9), is War Machine. He is an Avenger and close, personal friend of Iron Man-if you couldn't have guessed that already. He has the same body sculpt as the Iron Man from Series 1--which has everyone either loving it or hating it. In my opinion, I love it. I love continuity. That way it's a little more believable that it's the same guy under the costume if the body looks the same. Tony Stark (Iron Man) wore this costume first. Then, his friend, James Rhodes wore it and continues to wear it. He is nicely articulated, well painted, and the joints were all tight and well concealed. Durability is good for kids, but the mask could have fit a little better. You can always super-glue it in place because you really don't need to see James Rhodes' face-unless, of course, you want to. Also, the rocket launcher and gatling gun that are mounted on the shoulders restrict the movement of the figure's head. At times, they can even pop the mask off of his...

This toy broke easily when i got him out of his package. His missle launcher on his shoulder came off and I had to super glue it back on. Now I can't move this figure around much. BE CAREFUL.

I received my product on time and in great condition! Would buy from them again in a heartbeat!!!!! Great service!!!

To me, this is a odd looking rendition of War Machine, but loved by Iron Man & Marvel fans alike. I recently viewed this figure on You-Tube & nothing but good reviews outside of the one guy(fxfranz). But, he said, to also pick this War Machine even though he said, it one of the most poorly painted series of Iron Man figures. I too plan to get this one to complete my series 2 collection. On the back of the card,it states this is War Machines' power was awed by Rhodes trainees when he decided to put the armor's new power on display. This figure, along with Crimson Dynamo is short packed(1/case)& series 2 as a whole is hard to find at retail. Save yourself some gas,money,& time.If you find a descent price online, do yourself a favor & snatch this one quick, because I notice prices are starting to move upwards in the secondary market.

My son is addicted to Iron Man and had to have this toy! There's really not enough War Machine toys available, this was pretty much my only option. however, my son is only 3. If you strip this toy of all the tiny little accessories, it's great! My son brings it everywhere, very durable. HOWEVER- if you were to actually WANT all the little gadgets to stay on this figure, get yourself some crazy glue. They will NOT stay on! Not just for gameplay, but even just as a display! There's one piece in particular that's supposed to attach to his shoulder that just won't stay... I suggest if you buy this for a toy-ditch the tiny pieces before you give it to your child, to avoid the inevitable frustration! Once the little pieces went missing (in the garbage when he wasn't looking...) the toy was GREAT!

Unlike the Iron Man 4 Inch figure that was very poor quality the War Machine figure is a quality figure. It is sturdy and easy to put the guns together and display. The missle launcher though is extremely off size wise compared to the chain gun. The only downside other then that is that if you are going to display it you will want to super glue the belt for the chain gun into the slots. Otherwise it will come out. The figure looks really nice sitting on my shelf however. The toy also feels and looks extremely sturdy too and doesn't seem bound to break. Hence parents shouldn't worry about buying it for their kids either.
