![]() ![]() The XLII suit has a much more prominent gold coloring, especially on the legs. In fact, it looks like a mash-up of the Mark VI and Mark XVII Heartbreaker suits. The details in the printing are good, and they included plenty of tiny little parts to keep things interesting.īut now on to the bad stuff this does NOT look like the Mark XLII Iron Man suit. When it came to the Mark XLII Iron Man suit, LEGO really missed the mark!īut let’s start with the good things! The head looks pretty great, and it’s always good to have the energy blasts coming from the feet. We’re not one to complain about LEGO Minifigures, but we have to point out the glaring errors when we see them! Total pieces to this Minifigure: 5 Mark XLII Iron Man #1 Total number of sets found in: 1 (76125 Iron Man Hall of Armor) ![]() In fact, both the torso and the leg pieces feature some of the more intricate printing we’ve seen on a Minifigure!īuild wise though, it’s very much in the same vein as the other Minifigures, with the helmet being flip up-able, revealing a transparent head piece.Īgain, this can be quickly and easily swapped out with the printed face piece included in the 76125 Iron Man Hall of Armor set. The detailing is incredible, and there is ample shading and highlights to really bring out those ‘bones’ in the armor. This gives the gold printing an extra effective pop! The usual vibrant reds are replaced with an extremely dark (almost black) blue. The Mark XLI suited Minifigure takes the usual Iron Man Minifigure and turns it on its head. We do love an Iron Man with a bit of a different look! Total pieces to this Minifigure: 6 Mark XXXIX Iron Man This pauldron piece can be slid onto the neck and sandwiched between the torso and head pieces. However, this Minifigure just goes with the yellow pauldrons at the top of regular gray arms. The actual suit has arms that end in huge jackhammer-like endings. Maybe LEGO could have printed the yellow on directly, so the shoulders weren’t as obtrusive, but still, it gives it a different look to many other Minifigures. The color may be too bright and clean, but it gets the idea across well. It features a shocking yellow pauldron that represents the armors yellow paint applications. ![]() He’s basically a gunmetal gray and silver version of the regular Minifigure, but with some interesting and eye-catching highlights. The Mark XXV ‘Striker’ Iron Man Minifigure is another that can be found in the 76216 Iron Man Armory set. Total pieces to this Minifigure: 4 Mark V Iron Man ![]() Total number of sets found in: 1 (76190 Iron Monger Mayhem) Having said all of that, it would have been nice for there to be a helmet included, too! Minifigure Stats It might only be a previously used, off-the-shelf hair piece from LEGO’s extensive inventory, but they chose it well! The hair piece is a great touch, too, as part of Tony Stark’s look is the tousled and unkempt yet stylish hair. On the reverse side of the head is a more determined face with the heads-up display over the top of it. The face looks fantastic! We get the patented Tony Stark cock-sure smile, and to say that the printing is only super simple, LEGO did a fantastic job of making it look like Robert Downey Jr! It’s a pity there’s no arm printing, but we can live without that here. The torso and leg pieces are once again printed amazingly well, and they are scarily accurate to what you see on screen. This is essentially the same Mark III armor as the Minifigure above, except this time, we get Tony Stark himself instead of a helmet! We finally get to our first completely non-helmeted Iron Man! Mark III Iron Man (without helmet) Minifigure Total pieces to this Minifigure : 5 Mark III Iron Man (without helmet) Total number of sets found in: 1 (76216 Iron Man Armory) It might be a little annoying if you want a printed Tony Stark head under each, but in the context of the LEGO set, it makes sense.Īlso, we don’t know about you, but the red and gold Iron Man looks pretty festive, and he would seem at home in one of the LEGO Marvel advent calendars! Minifigure Stats Here’s the thing, though it’s not a head piece with a printed face under there! Instead, it is just a transparent blue head-shaped brick.Īs you can find it in the 76216 Iron Man Armory set, we suppose it allows you to switch around the 1 printed head piece, so Tony Stark can wear the different suits of armor. The helmet is also able to flip up, revealing the head piece. The printed details on the body are fantastic, with plenty of highlights and shading to give it some depth and character. The Mark III armor is certainly one of the most iconic Iron Man looks, and LEGO nailed it here. ![]()
