Iron Man: Avengers from Fathead. Review!

Big fan of the Avengers? Well, you can now bring home the Armored Avenger! Iron Man is here thanks to the great company called "Fathead".

Now this is my second review with Fathead and I am glad to point out one fact that is the same in both. That fact is the box got here in perfect shape and the product was very well packed. Why do I point this out twice? Because I think a major part of a good business when it comes to online ordering, is to make sure the product gets to its owner in perfect shape. So two thumbs up to Fathead for a fantastic packing job.

Now on to the product itself, we will start with the main Fathead of Iron Man in his Mark VII suit. This is truly life size and lives up to the Fathead detail.  One of my favorite parts is how the Arc Reactor even has a glow to it. I like how there is a lighting effect on the metal to make it look even more like he is standing right there. The image is so smooth and detailed, which makes this product even more fantastic.

Now along with the main Fathead, there are bonus logos and even a special smaller Fathead of the Armored Avenger himself. First we have the pretty much Fathead Junior of Iron Man again in his Mark VII, this time he is in flight. This has the same level of detail as the main Fathead. Now while promoting the movie, Marvel gave each Avenger their own "A" logo design. Which is why one of the two "A" logos with this Fathead has the Arc Reactor in it to symbol Iron Man. I am a big fan of how Fathead includes the stand alone logos as part of their products. The second "A" is one of my favorites as it is the black "A" with a kind of gold/orange background. The other two movie themed items with this are the "Armored Avenger" logo and the main movie title logo. The "Armored Avengers" even has a city on the inside of the letters of "Avenger". There is even a Fathead of the Fathead logo, the cool part about this is that it is colored to fit right in with the Iron Man theme.

So again I give Fathead 5 stars for another amazing product. If you are looking for some of the greatest movie collectibles, make sure you check out Fathead!

Thank you to Fathead for supplying this product for me to review!

Expendables Minimates Review

I am reviewing the Diamond Select Toys Minimates sets from The Expendables and The Expendables 2. In case you are wondering how to get hold of the figures of Barney Ross, there are two of them which you can in the sets sold only at Toys R Us.

In the first movie set there are figures of:

Lee Christmas - Jason Statham

Mr. Church - Bruce Willis

Tool - Mickey Rourke

Hale Caesar - Terry Crews

The Second movie set includes:

Yin Yang - Jet Li

Gunner Jensen - Dolph Lundgren

Jean Vilain - Jean-Claude Van Damme

Toll Road - Randy Couture














Overall the faces are really good detail of each person, I think the best detail comes from the figure of Tool played by Mickey Rourke.

They move very smooth and are easy to play with if you are looking for the toy side of them. The only two things that give a little trouble are Jean Vilain's head and the weapons. With his head it takes a little time to get his sunglasses head on the first time, after that it is easy to pop on and off. The weapon issue is that it also takes some time to get it in the hands of the figures. Other then those two issues the figures are great. I was worried at first when there wasn't a stand of any of them but they are great standing by themselves.

With the toy side of them, I am glad to know that they are very strong and don't break or scratch easy.

As the company says, please do be careful giving these toys to younger ones because of the small parts.

The store packages are great. They each have a short story about the films and the people that the toys are based on. It also includes a picture of the Expendables 2 poster and the skull logo.

Would I say to buy this? Yes.
