Toying Around Reviews: Marvel Legends: Avengers GamerVerse - Iron Man
Avengers GamerVerse: Iron Man
Today we will be taking a look at Gamerverse Iron Man.
This Iron Man look is based on the upcoming Avengers video game from Square Enix releasing September 4th, 2020.
The Marvel Legends Series is a Mid-Tier toy line that both collectors and non-collectors alike would be interested in. With multiple scales ranging from 4 inches to 12 inches and a good mix of detail and articulation, these figures tend to look good both inside and outside of the box.
PACKAGING:
Before we open this up, let's take a look at the packaging.
Iron Man comes packed in the stranded Marvel Legends GamerVerse white box. At the top of the box, you have the Abomination Build-A-Figure logo, as He is the figure for this wave. The Marvel GamerVerse logo is right below that. Iron Man is displayed in the middle through the large window that showcases the figure as well as his accessories. This gives great visibility for collectors that may not be opening it. On the bottom of the box, you have the Marvel Avengers logo from the game. At the very bottom we have Iron Man’s name.
On the left side of the box, we get some nice artwork of The whole Avengers team that is in the game.
On the back of the box, you have a picture of Iron Man along with a small bio, Tony Stark developed his cutting-edge Iron Man armor and helped found the Avengers to protect the world against catastrophic threats. Below that we have a picture of Abomination along with the rest of the figures in this wave, Captain America, Iron Man, Ms. Marvel, Mar-Vel, Mach-1, Rage and The Leader
Flipping the box to the right side now, you see we get the same artwork that is on the left side.
OUTSIDE OF THE BOX:
Let's open the box and take a closer look at the figure.
Taking Iron Man out of the box and taking a closer look at him, i think Hasbro did a good job on the figure. He looks like the art-work from the video game, As i can not be 100% sure the figure correct since at the time of this review the game has not come out yet.

RATING:
What are Baby Huey's scores for the figure?
PAINT JOB 5/5
The paint on this Iron Man is very well done. The gold and silver are both where they should be and there isn’t really any paint bleeding into any other spots.
FIGURE SCULPT 4.5/5
The only real issue with the sculpt is his shoulder plates, They prevent you from moving his arms out more, they also hinder you from trying to rotate the figure at the bicep.
POSING 4.5/5
If the shoulder plates were better posing of the figure would be a 5/5 if we could move the shoulders out a little bit more to the sides
ACCESSORIES: 4.5/5
The only real thing this figure is missing is a Tony Stark head sculpt.
DURABILITY 5/5
The plastic and construction of the figure are solid. don’t see anything breaking down or off the figure.
OVERALL SCORE 4.7/5
This figure is just missing a few small things to be a home run.
RETAIL COST: $19.99
I picked mine up at my local Walmart
