You could try doing a head swap and put Obadiah's head on Iron Monger to seem like he's in there. The head would wobble and not fit but just a thought.
I always want to do things like that but I'm always so weary because I tried putting a Peter Parker head on the gamerverse miles and managed to break such a good figure
I can't really collect figures anymore but this was such a pleasant review to watch. Fwoosh and Toy Galaxy never fail to produce quality content that captures what collecting is all about: just have fun.
Mine is apparently being walked from Pennsylvania to Georgia. It was supposed to be here yesterday but has sat in Charlotte NC for 24 hours now. Thanks FedEx.
Just an historical note, in 1861, the Pony Express ran Lincoln's inaugural address from Nebraska to California in 7 days. Seems like ship times should be faster now, mo?
Almost got me! Such a good review I thought I needed this set for a minute before I remembered I'm phasing out MCU from the collection. It's a hard habit to kick when awesome stuff like this comes out!
Great review robo, little surprised you didn't do a comparison with the hulkbuster armor. But I still enjoyed the video. Looking forward to when mine comes in the mail.
I love love love that exploding shells accessory! Thats one I would be happy to see Hasbro reuse dozens of times. Need to at least get one for the Deathlok figure.
I can't wait to get this. I have the Mark III and I was pleasantly surprised with it. I didn't expect too much out of it, but it's so fun to mess around with!
I had the original toy when I was like 5 and I gotta say hasbro is hitting the nostalgia where it hurts, but its like over $100 CAD so it'll hurt my wallet even more. Great review too!
Robo, I enjoy This two pack its got so much going for it. The brief case not being able to hold the arc reactor being my only real nitpick. The arc reactor is ideal in sculpt. I did this set and two McFarlane figures. I wait for those spawn figures, familiar story? I see that stealth iron man wants into the review;) marvel legends everywhere. Be well.
Thank you for a fun review and at least mentioning some of the shortcomings of the Iron Monger fig in passing. I just opened mine and was a little underwhelmed after all the orgasmic reviews I'd seen. Some major positives but also some real WTF items, such as the fact that if this thing were real, it couldn't walk up hill...at all. 🤣
This is an awesome review, this kinda makes me wonder what if iron man didn't kill stane and whiplash and was able to keep their suits basically doing like what he did in the armored adventures series where he thought of incorporating his enemies tech into his armor
I'll take all the Jeff Bridges. I have that DST Tron figure and I pre ordered that Hot Toys Big Lebowski. Figure I'll make a little Jeff Bridges section on a shelf.
I remember having about 3 or 4 different versions of this iron monger figure 🤣 I had the opening one with Obi inside, one with an arm moving action, a regular one similar to this - And I think there was a blue one? So many versions of these suits 🤣
I recall the opening torso version as v2, the first one had red and blue arc reactor variants? One of those two might have had the arm action? Mine might still be boxed up from two moves ago? oh. and a red/gold variant?
@@brainlock72 I've still got the Blue one, it was a concept repaint based on the comic look :P And yeah you're right, the one with the red reactor had the moving arm action feature :) And yes I remember the gold one! I think that was the only version I couldn't get xD
I just wish the suit body had been cast in gray plastic so hed be wearing the suit he wore in the “box of scraps” scene (plus it would be one less black suit body in the collection
I remember going to my local mall and my parents let me get a toy at Five Below. It was one of those Iron Man figs & they were all good but I got War Machine. I think that was in like 2010
That feature was a selling point on the three zero Hulkbuster and mark 43. U remove the upper torso and lower arms to insert it into the armor. They definitely could have done so here too
@@fortniteblackmanta1098 yeah but i dont want that Prowler lol the mask looks silly Id rather wait for another company to repease their Prowler figure and get a better toy
Obadiah is the love child of Dude and Picard? Def more Old Man Xavier than Starman influence happening here. (Any chance we'll see a comparison of those two actor likenesseseses?) I do see Obie sitting/squatting inside the chest/torso instead of wearing it like Tony did, which would break his legs, if not more. I think this armor was 10-12ft tall, so there's no other real option for the operator inside. If I could change TWO things: opening torso that you could place Obie's torso inside. (removable limb mod?) Make the arc reactor bright blue/white inside the torso, as I realize there's no way we're getting led or lite-pipe to work in that location. oh, and add another hand with that neuralizer device Obie uses on Said(?) and Tony. Did you try to put the Obie head on the armor peg? How would that look, if so?
I ordered my set the EXACT same way! MODOK kicked my total over $100. Also, I tested the new Red Skull head on the Obidiah body to make him look similar to the Red Skull from Captain America 350 (where Steve gets to be Cap again).
Hasbro getting outdone is becoming a trend. I remember my cousin got this figure when the movie came out and this is my favorite. I really hope the Hammer Drones will be next!
This video has just reminded me Targets high restrictive policy if they can't charge your card within three days they will cancel all of your orders, which happened during a period my cc got skimmed at a gas station and I couldn't charge anything, means my Gunsliger Spawn was cancelled.
Can anyone tell me what War Machine version that is at 12:04 ? I thought I was satisfied with my War Machine collection, but I don't have that one. That's not the one they repainted for the Punisher War Machine, is it?
Comparing the Stane figure to the Iron Monger figure make me realize the Iron Monger isnt up to scale. I should actually be a bit bigger to somehow have the Stane figure fit into it but the fact we got this figure in the first place is a blessing
I thought the same thing about Obadiah not looking like he would fit in the suit, but in the movie there doesn't even seem to be room for him to fit in it. Sure his body would fit, but not his arms and legs! That being said I actually think both are in scale
Usually, I prefer black series or marvel legends figures with masks on or with alien faces because the likeness of the actors faces are many times still not as good as I prefer them to be. However, this is one of the cases where I think they really nailed the Obadiah's actors face.
Of the tons of suit bodies and suit pants/shoe figures i have i can get maybe 2 of them to actually stand up right, the rest dont. Very frustrating about that body
Personally, IM’s design in the movie is leagues better than his comic counterpart. I just really like how they adapted him into the movie to look like a walking tank.
Hey robo, have you ever tried the tamiya weathering master? I mainly build gundam kits and I recently picked up a few sets of the stuff and its AWESOME!! I'd say it would work on figures as long as you topcoat it. It would make that iron monger look much better. Just a suggestion. P.s. love watching you videos
A couple of years ago, I shaved my head and grew a beard. People kept calling me Robo. I never understood why until today. Or maybe it's because I can pop and lock like a dancing machine.
I like how Obidiah apparently has multiple shoulder holsters to coordinate with his shirts. Truly a man of culture.
Lazy Hasbro.
You could try doing a head swap and put Obadiah's head on Iron Monger to seem like he's in there. The head would wobble and not fit but just a thought.
Good 💡
@Kermit Clan1 The head of Obadiah fit the peg pretty well but it didn't look good at all lol
I always want to do things like that but I'm always so weary because I tried putting a Peter Parker head on the gamerverse miles and managed to break such a good figure
I would take a whole bag of those Iron Man repulsor effect pieces. They make for good muzzle flash and bullet hits
would be cool if Hasbro just made a pack of effects pieces! it'd sell like hot cakes
I have so many from different figures, problem is I keep losing them
Keep it up fwoosh. The only sane parts of my week are now watching you play with all the toys I want 🤣
It's neat that the engineers attempted to make some of the pistons functional
Ye. A nice surprise for sure, they went above and beyond with this guy
Dang Robo, ya did it... you've convinced me to get this now. You're my go-to when it comes to reviews!
Ah, the "Robo and his Iron Giant" set, very nice...
Can't wait to get my grubby little mitts on this. That pose you had on the turntable👌.
Excellent review as always.
I can't really collect figures anymore but this was such a pleasant review to watch. Fwoosh and Toy Galaxy never fail to produce quality content that captures what collecting is all about: just have fun.
I love how Ironmonger looks in the movie, it's everything awesome about Iron man.
But with a almost steampunk esthetic, And I love it.
That rotating pose is GORGEOUS. I will definitely be looking out for this
I don't want to alarm you, Robo, but there's an Iron Man creeping around the review space 😂
WHAT?
@@TheFwoosh I guess there were two stealth Iron Men in the Ursa Major wave!
Now you're just seeing things!
Computer! End Program!
(and now I need him creeping in every IM review! LOL)
The engineering on the monger is awesome makes me excited for the hydra stomper
Mine is apparently being walked from Pennsylvania to Georgia. It was supposed to be here yesterday but has sat in Charlotte NC for 24 hours now.

This is funny
The Intro 😂 they're always Golden!
Awesome review. You’ve convinced me. Can’t wait for mine to come in!
This is the one Infinity Saga set I'm waiting for, love the Iron Monger so much
I too, love the MK1 War Machine!!!
Dude..... he's sooo big and thats awsome
So jealous. Ordered just the Oba from Dorkside. Wish I ordered the set now. That last shot on the turntable is how you should display it.
“Your services are no longer required.” 🔥🔥🔥
Bye bye, old Hasbro figure. Hello, new Hasbro figure.
Almost got me! Such a good review I thought I needed this set for a minute before I remembered I'm phasing out MCU from the collection. It's a hard habit to kick when awesome stuff like this comes out!
My collection looks so weird on the shelf nowadays, I usually try sticking to comics but then figures like this come out and I have mcu figures now
I like the new editing style
Stane was going to have a cinnamon roll, but he couldn't overcome the icing problem.
🤣😅😆🤣
Great review robo, little surprised you didn't do a comparison with the hulkbuster armor. But I still enjoyed the video. Looking forward to when mine comes in the mail.
They're both relatively the same size in height
Wasn’t expecting this. This two pack and the MK 3 figures are the main ones I want from this wave super good looking.
I just got the thanos/stark 2 pack, and a week later found/purchased the mk3 at retail... my wallet is screaming lol but damn this monger is NICE.
So happy this infinity saga wave was made. Hope there able to make a figure of everyone in the mcu
Im glad they did a robo figure finally
Come on, people, that looks nothing like Robo!
I mean... Robo doesn't wear suits!
EXACTLY!
No... but GUSS DOES!!!
...right?
I love love love that exploding shells accessory! Thats one I would be happy to see Hasbro reuse dozens of times. Need to at least get one for the Deathlok figure.
Stane and Iron Monger looks so cool😎🔥
I can't wait to get this. I have the Mark III and I was pleasantly surprised with it. I didn't expect too much out of it, but it's so fun to mess around with!
I actually don't know how I haven't gotten that Iron Man yet, haha.
@@TheFwoosh I feel the same way about the Iron Monger set 😂
This iron monger figure is extremely cool, but for some reason the paint is kind of dull, if you ask me.
I wish he has more paint on the entire suit or armor anyway.
I had the original toy when I was like 5 and I gotta say hasbro is hitting the nostalgia where it hurts, but its like over $100 CAD so it'll hurt my wallet even more. Great review too!
PULEEEESE! A Fwoosh "Forward Facing Pin For Rocker" tee!

That's one sick pose you did there with the two of them on the display

Iron Monger vs Hydra Stomper vs a Hulkbuster in a battle royale. Let's do this!
Villains! So nice we are getting villains now.
Robo - one of the few good things amidst the pandemic. 👌🏻
I like how obidiahs head looks popped on the iron monger. Might be how i have it displayed
Obie's head fits on Iron Monger peg.
This is an awesome review, this kinda makes me wonder what if iron man didn't kill stane and whiplash and was able to keep their suits basically doing like what he did in the armored adventures series where he thought of incorporating his enemies tech into his armor

Great review. Looking forward to your Marvel "What if" line if you get them.
Keep up the great work.
I don't collect the MCU figures, but I'm really digging this set.
Same here. I only have a few of the old MCU figs. Mostly into Comic Book figs...but this looks incredible!
Great review man!
I just wish the suit body had been cast in gray plastic so hed be wearing the suit he wore in the “box of scraps” scene (plus it would be one less black suit body in the collection
I really like the figure the price is like wow. But after the review I am thinking of getting it. Thanks Robo.
I remember going to my local mall and my parents let me get a toy at Five Below. It was one of those Iron Man figs & they were all good but I got War Machine. I think that was in like 2010
Marvel legends??? Or was it like a 5 poa thing?
@@RandomStuffGarage619 it was their version of Iron Man figures
Yes sir- it arrived today!!! Already took him apart to customize….
That feature was a selling point on the three zero Hulkbuster and mark 43. U remove the upper torso and lower arms to insert it into the armor. They definitely could have done so here too
I find myself wondering how much reuse is there in the Iron Monger and Hydra Stomper. Something to look into later.
9:25
When you openned the briefcase i LOST MY MIND!!! Im buying this set for that briefcase alone!!!! 🔥
Prowler from the stilt man BAF wave has one too and it’s $20 usd, much cheaper.
@@fortniteblackmanta1098 yeah but i dont want that Prowler lol the mask looks silly
Id rather wait for another company to repease their Prowler figure and get a better toy
Great pose at the end, Robo!
Just got this for £27 and i dont regret it
Obadiah is the love child of Dude and Picard? Def more Old Man Xavier than Starman influence happening here.
(Any chance we'll see a comparison of those two actor likenesseseses?)
I do see Obie sitting/squatting inside the chest/torso instead of wearing it like Tony did, which would break his legs, if not more. I think this armor was 10-12ft tall, so there's no other real option for the operator inside.
If I could change TWO things: opening torso that you could place Obie's torso inside. (removable limb mod?)
Make the arc reactor bright blue/white inside the torso, as I realize there's no way we're getting led or lite-pipe to work in that location.
oh, and add another hand with that neuralizer device Obie uses on Said(?) and Tony.
Did you try to put the Obie head on the armor peg? How would that look, if so?
The dude's head fit on the robot.
So you can do the helmet holding pose too.
Need that Obadiah Stane and a correct scaled globe to recreate the NewsWeek magazine cover
Obadiah's head actually fits on the Iron Monger neck joint.
I ordered my set the EXACT same way! MODOK kicked my total over $100.
Also, I tested the new Red Skull head on the Obidiah body to make him look similar to the Red Skull from Captain America 350 (where Steve gets to be Cap again).
Can't deny there's potential for a Old man Robo costume action figure.
Haha I like how the holo iron man is just hiding in the backround
Hasbro getting outdone is becoming a trend.
I remember my cousin got this figure when the movie came out and this is my favorite. I really hope the Hammer Drones will be next!
This is an awesome set - definitely picking this set up, I need that BIG "Bastard" 🤪

waiting for Hasbro Infinity Marvel Legends to do *WHIPLASH*
Whiplash in his armored suit is something I'd want to see they do
I definitely didn’t want it at first but the way you posed it makes me want it but it’s still not my top priority
genuinely laughed out loud at the suitcase joke lol
Can anyone tell me what War Machine version that is at 12:04 ? I thought I was satisfied with my War Machine collection, but I don't have that one. That's not the one they repainted for the Punisher War Machine, is it?
"You wanted to rid the world of weapons, you gave it its best one"
-Obadiah Stane
No comparison to the hulk buster? To big bruisers colliding? Come on haha. Jk, loved the review! Really glad I pre-ordered it
I have mine, dying to open it and fondle that good plastic!
Comparing the Stane figure to the Iron Monger figure make me realize the Iron Monger isnt up to scale. I should actually be a bit bigger to somehow have the Stane figure fit into it but the fact we got this figure in the first place is a blessing
Another amazing review and it is just me or iron monger design is all the New design of durge in the new canon
I thought the same thing about Obadiah not looking like he would fit in the suit, but in the movie there doesn't even seem to be room for him to fit in it. Sure his body would fit, but not his arms and legs! That being said I actually think both are in scale
Wow, I’ve never been this early to a video before. Cool
Same
Usually, I prefer black series or marvel legends figures with masks on or with alien faces because the likeness of the actors faces are many times still not as good as I prefer them to be. However, this is one of the cases where I think they really nailed the Obadiah's actors face.
This is great if only they made the hulk buster like this
They should have made this a baf set where we could construct the monger suit around Obadiah!
Is there a 1/12th scale Hulkbuster available to compare it with? That would be a good one.
In my personal opinion it would look great fighting the ironmonger
11:31 pls tell me what that figure on the left is
Awesome review 🔥🔪
Was hoping it would've been shown next to the BAF Hulkbuster.
Of the tons of suit bodies and suit pants/shoe figures i have i can get maybe 2 of them to actually stand up right, the rest dont. Very frustrating about that body
Do y’all think this blend well with the comic book iron man figures ?
Yes and no

I’ve just watched the first episode of What If…?
So I’m in a bit of a Marvel mood.
I got the same Target deal on my Obadiah and Happy packs, and I’m in the same boat (Obadiah shipped, but Happy is delayed).
I lost my head piece for my og iron monger over 10 years ago, one of the few pieces I was never able to find for a figure
Are you doing a review on the Ironman and Thanos two pack?
Hopefully they release an Ivan Vanko (whiplash) from iron man 2 soon, or announce its in the works.
