And it does definitely contend with high end Ironman figures. The only thing holding it back is the lack of more dynamic articulation. It would otherwise equal the best of the best Ironman figs. Bonus points for actually giving us a Uni-Beam effect!
@@homedude832 Nah, I feel like the sculpt on this one has more comic appropriate proportions. The Select version feels more like a comicbook drawing come to life if you get what I mean.
@@homedude832 Well, hear me out...Do you prefer a figure that is spot on to it's comicbook counterpart with adequate articulation or a figure that is an alright representation with superior articulation? I also have to be honest, but a lot of Marvel Legends are a bit boring to me in regards to articulation because they reuse parts so much that there's almost nothing new to offer other than sculpt and paint. Alot of the things this figure can do, I didn't even know until Unparalleled pointed them out.
You can have double jointed elbow if you are willing to have no movement at all on the bottom. Marvel Select is limited to 16 points of articulation by their licensing contract.
As a marvel legend collector the longer I watch I just keep shaking my head like wow I’m such a sucker look at this crazy ass figure for the same price point
I love the shiny paint too! It looks like automotive paint. The new riri Williams legends figure has that amazing plastic that looks like paint too. (I haven’t been able to find modular Iron man yet)
This is an unparalleled figure for sure. Even though you cover a wide variety of lines, the diamond select reviews are great. I’m sure I’ve bought a few of their figures bc of an unparalleled video.
The only thing I'd like to have added are some Negator Packs to go inside the backpack. He used them in The Armor Wars story to fry any armor that was using his stolen technology.
All the newer legends iron mans are on the same buck maybe with a little extra sculpting…like how are people excited about them? That’s why I like diamond and McFarlane, just about every figure is a new experience and the articulation is always different.
This! And the thing that gets me with Legends is that many of the sculpts don't necessarily reflect comic book proportions well, so the likeness doesn't translate as if it came straight off of a panel. With DC Multiverse and Marvel Select, they tend to get that part right more often than not. That leaves articulation, and the only reason most Legends have that down is because of the overdone reuse of parts. There's often nothing to explore in a Legends figure.
I don't normally dig DST but this one wow. One of my fave armors and they did it all kinds of justice here! Marvel legends absolutely dropped the ball on this one. Great job Wade.
That pulse beam effect is sweet! The unibeam should have been as long as the repulsor beam. That mullet head sculpt is kick butt! That is a weapons manufacturer there.
Great review, as always. I wasn't really interested in this figure since I have the Legends version, but you've got me giving it a second look. That red finish looks great, I really like the bulkiness, and those blast effects are pretty dope.
I was undecided on which one to grab for the longest. Once I saw all that this came with, I knew this was the one to get. Honestly, I'd sell that ML if I had it...this one is superior in all but articulation
At last a HQ review on this guy! With exception of the elbows, the rest of articulation to me is pretty good. A strong contendant for figure of the year IMO.
But the red/accessories are better on the Select. All the same, relatively uniform scale across a collection trumps a lot of advantages, so I have to ultimately side with Hasbro.
You did such a great review on this. I watched a few other reviews after and nearly everyone else didn’t know you could rotate the shoulders and open the backpack. Keep up the great review
Awesome vid/review as always Wade!!! Figure looks dope as hell. I think those blast effects are some of the coolest we've seen from any company making Ironman figs.
Yooò i cant wait for mine. Its gonna take a while but ill def love it. Man u gotto do an updated top 10 marvel select video or something. May be just me wanting that haha
Man, you had to do a comparison of it with the Marvel Legends BAF Iron Monger! After all, Iron Man built the Silver Centurion armor to fight Obadiah Stane. Missed reference man!!
@@UnparalleledUniverse It's a BAF you should definitely look into getting! It's a great mold, and goes great with any Iron Man display you might have. Hard to come by though. You should try and get your hands on one.
God damn, how many times do I have to tell u people, diamond select is superior to legends. They keep proving themselves, and before anyone disagrees, think about these figures, endgame thanos, endgame gauntlet hulk, endgame iron man, ragnarok hulk, far from home Spidey, ps4 Spidey, immortal hulk, venom, carnage, rhino, taskmaster, amazing Spider-Man movie lizard, that new school thanos, teen groot, falcon captain America, planet hulk, hulkbuster, colossus, juggernaut, avenging captain America, etc, etc.
Straight up. The only thing Legends have over Select is articulation and the vast amount of characters they've covered. Selects often feel as though they should be premium figures, especially this particular Ironman. This one feels like a $60-$100 figure, only really lacking double joints at elbows and knees.
Had no interest in it having the marvel legends one and it’s shocking that they are at the same price point he looks like a hero he has effect and accessories that are specific to him it’s ridiculous dude this figure is sick
I sorta wish Diamond had the DC license for stuff beyond statues and props, such a dope figure.
I don't get that one head which makes IM look like an android.
@@wadecarmen7501 they are glasses from the comics
The Tic Tac-shaped effects are pulse bolts. They were one of the trademark weapons of the Silver Centurion.
Right, they were a long range weapon as they gained impact as they traveled. "The further they go, the harder they hit!"
They’re called Pulse Bolts. I’m an iron man fan I had to say the name
@@jumpcutreviews1545 totally should have been kept in future armors and comics!
And it does definitely contend with high end Ironman figures. The only thing holding it back is the lack of more dynamic articulation. It would otherwise equal the best of the best Ironman figs. Bonus points for actually giving us a Uni-Beam effect!
Marvel Legends vs. Marvel Select: Silver Centurion Iron Man Action Figure Comparaison.
this thing blows the Marvel Legends version out of the water. the only reason I own the ML one over this one is because of the scale
If Marvel legends had glossy paint and accessories it would totally kick selects ass especially on articulation. $20 vs $35
@@homedude832 Nah, I feel like the sculpt on this one has more comic appropriate proportions. The Select version feels more like a comicbook drawing come to life if you get what I mean.
@@ReeceHoward06 I can see an appreciate that much like I appreciate Todd’s Kickstarter Spawn but that doesn’t make it a superior figure

I just love that Diamond gave us a mullet Tony Stark head sculpt. Makes me want to make a smaller mold of it for the Marvel Legends Modular Iron Man.
The closed hands FX part are for Silver Iron Mans "Pulse Bolts" attack blast he used in the comix.
I'm sure it's probably too big, but would've liked to see how the Tony Stark head looks on the ML Modular armor.
Looks better with mezco
I think they’re starting to figure out how to give collectors what they want. Can’t wait to see more release from marvel select!
Diamond Selects : What's a double jointed elbow?
Fr tho 😂

Best Tony headscuplt I’ve seen
It’s the second best IMO still really great though!

Just ordered it. If MS keeps this up I might have to have a dedicated shelf for MSs
2years later and in my opinion they have kept up with the figures haha
I have to add, the effects work with Legends

Your photography skills are really improving. Nice review.

FYI: for all those little nicks and scrapes this figure is most definitely going to get, Tamiya X-27 (Clear Red) works very well to cover those up
Looks awesome! Need this for my Marvel Select display. Kinda worried about paint chipping on this figure though...
I don’t remember seeing any paint chipping on mine
@@UnparalleledUniverse thats good to hear. will look great next to my mighty thor then hehe. thanks!

Iron Man's deadly suppository blast
The accessories kill it for me, great job brodie
Thanks kiddo!
I suspect a full comparison video is coming for this with its Legends counterpart, and that's why we didn't see it, here.
The silver on the Legends is nicer.
But the red/accessories are better on the Select. All the same, relatively uniform scale across a collection trumps a lot of advantages, so I have to ultimately side with Hasbro.
Wade: "Sen-turr-ree-on"
Merriam-Webster: am I a joke to you
You did such a great review on this. I watched a few other reviews after and nearly everyone else didn’t know you could rotate the shoulders and open the backpack.
Keep up the great review
Its because is so hard to rotate the shoulders... I heat it and it didnt work for me...that is the problem with this figure
Awesome vid/review as always Wade!!! Figure looks dope as hell. I think those blast effects are some of the coolest we've seen from any company making Ironman figs.
My favorite Armor for Iron Man.
I went and grabbed this IMMEDIATELY after I saw your Instagram post of it. I was not disappointed! I love this figure, an absolute thing of beauty.
I was hoping to see a comparison with the ML version. I have it but this one is way better.
Wow I kinda dropped the ball there. I recorded that clip and forgot to include it 😂
@@UnparalleledUniverse post it somewhere please!
I think I might put together a quick video comparing the 2
Its all good King! Fantastic review still and now I gotta make some adjustments to snag him as per your review. My wallet can't get a break🤣 😫 🙃
Dammit Wade!! Now I had to go rush and buy it lol!. Solid figure!
Yooò i cant wait for mine. Its gonna take a while but ill def love it. Man u gotto do an updated top 10 marvel select video or something. May be just me wanting that haha
Next to the Legends it makes it look like a happy meal toy
Imagine if marvel select makes a modular iron man figure i think they will do an excellent job at making him
Did i ever said to you that your my favorite reviewer....... your just so awsome man
Always enjoy your review style Wade. Keep up the good work man.
Thank you
Congratulations on 40k btw! 🥳🥳🥳🥳
you deserve it!
Great review bro! But didn't he come with a flight stand as well?
Shit! It did I left that part out too. I must have been tired while editing this jeez
@@UnparalleledUniverse Lol! Can't wait till I get mines!👍🏿
The flight stand sucks anyway haha
@@UnparalleledUniverse 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Dope review ….. notwithstanding I do not have any Diamond Select Figures, this one is nice !
AMAZING photos and poses!!!
Unrelated.. how did you close the mouth on the Marvel Select Hulk??? It looks better!!
Thanks! I used hot water and glue to make that happen. I have a video on my channel explaining what I did
I wish you would have tried that Tony stark head on the modular iron man
This is a pretty stunning figure just like you said. I hope we get some more West Coast Avengers.
I knew you would love this
MS Nailed this one hard!!!
Heck yeah they did!
Saw this at my local comic shop for 40 bucks i passed on it before I really don’t have anymore room to put him at but hopefully they still have him
IM has classically been depicted as at least 6'6" in armor, so I think the scale with Hasbro or Mezco is perfect.
He looks like he’s 7ft compared to Marvel Legends, but maybe with Mezco he could fit?
Damn that is a great figure love the blast effects
Wade your setup is so clean! How are you doing that backlight for the background and what are you using for the floor for the figures to stand on?
Man, you had to do a comparison of it with the Marvel Legends BAF Iron Monger! After all, Iron Man built the Silver Centurion armor to fight Obadiah Stane. Missed reference man!!
I don’t have that BAF…I know…I suck
@@UnparalleledUniverse It's a BAF you should definitely look into getting! It's a great mold, and goes great with any Iron Man display you might have. Hard to come by though. You should try and get your hands on one.
The value here is insane.
For real! They pack a lot in there for the price!
My least favorite armor but the accessories are crazy good.
Whaa!?! No love for this armor? It’s a classic!
my favorite iron man armor.
Thinking abt buying this 🤔🤔
Still was never able to get the Walgreens ML one
Also, first
It's on Amazon. www.amazon.com/dp/B084PV5W6H/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_V71HJDNPE4FKP9BYAZ41?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
This one is much better than the Marvel Legends version imo
@@UnparalleledUniverse I don't doubt it, I love select they've been getting so good over the past couple years.

💯
Does the Tony headsculpt fit for Marvel Legends? It looks awesome!!!
Works better with mezco. It is so big for legends.
At first I thought u were reviewing a custom head for the marvel legends ironman
Had no interest in it having the marvel legends one and it’s shocking that they are at the same price point he looks like a hero he has effect and accessories that are specific to him it’s ridiculous dude this figure is sick
This was insanely awesome! Love it!
Stunning review brother haha
man i hope marvel select make classic iron man suit even tho the marvel legends one is pretty good
Great review Wade
Amazing figure. But I'm wondering why you didn't compare it to the Marvel Legends Silver Centurion.
I recorded the clip and forgot to throw it in there 😂 gives me an excuse to make a comparison video now haha
@@UnparalleledUniverse In that case you're forgiven because your comparison videos are great. 🙌🏻
Looks dope
he looks great !
Shocked you didn't compare the Legends Centurion to this one.
You know what man? I actually recorded that and completely forgot to put it in…sorry I must have been exhausted haha
@@UnparalleledUniverse re-up it man. Its what the people want! Well, me anyway LOL. No worries, great vid anyway
@@lucarocks7866 naaah it gives me a reason to make a comparison video haha I’ll have that in a few days
Awesome review wade 🔥🔪🔥🔪
OMG! I need it in my life!
🔥🔥🔥
You made this sell out on BBTS 😭
Its not sold out there
In the thumbnail it kinda looks like maffex
Articulation and scale is ass on diamond select but I think I gotta swoop this one. I still need a diamond select hulk too
WHY TOSS OUT THE BOX????
Select is great for vanilla posers
Oh wow shocking that for 35 dollars all of the plastic is the same color I can’t believe it must be magic huh right hasbro
but the iron man does look good
Man, I hate that Marvel Select is 7 inch scale ;-;
sad
