A couple of weeks ago, Chicago had its premier Comic & Entertainment Expo, C2E2, which included an amazing chance to see up close and personal, props from the first Iron Man film. Organized and sold by Propworx, the auction included hero props such as a large Iron Monger torso and Tony Stark’s Mk1 and Mk2 Arc Reactor, as well as extra and stunt props for sale.

J Hernandez from the Fwoosh helps us continue AFP Iron Mania with a review of the Wal-Mart Exclusive 6-inch Iron Man Mark VI and War Machine.
Here we have Wal-Mart’s exclusive 6″ scale Iron Man 2 figures (Mark VI and War Machine.) At first glance, they’re definitely some swanky looking figures and by far a vast improvement upon the Iron Man figures Hasbro delivered to us in 2008.

AFP’s Iron Mania Week continues with a gargantuan guest review of Iron Man 2 Comic Series Wave 2 by Ash Talon. The 2nd wave of this line has just started hitting Toys R Us.
Iron Man is without a doubt my favorite comic book character. I own every issue of his several series going all the way back to Tales of Suspense #39. So when Hasbro announced a series of comic book-based action figures to run concurrently with the Iron Man 2 product, I was in heaven. It’s an idea that Hasbro mistakenly bypassed during the first Iron Man movie. But they’re learning, right?
The first wave of comic-based figures arrived in early March. Just this week, the second wave landed, and it’s just as stellar.
We may be running an Iron Mania week here at AFP, but at Marvel, the entire month of May is devoted to Iron Man.
We’re celebrating the May 7 (April 28 internationally) release of “Iron Man 2” with Iron Man Month 2010! Get ready for a monthlong mega mix of all things Shellhead right here on Marvel.com!
For this week’s Take 10, Marvel highlights ten of their favorite Iron Man action figures of all time.

We run down 10 of our favorite Iron Man toys from throughout the ages
Every week, a secret cabal of Marvel staffers gathers to discuss the best of the best when it comes to the House of Ideas.
Chances are, if you’re a fan of AFP, then you’ve seen the Iron Man movie, starring Robert Downey Jr. as the title character. And you probably know that the sequel, Iron Man 2, Metallic Boogaloo (I made that up) is opening this upcoming Friday, May 7.
Because we’re such big fans of Iron Man, this week we’re celebrating Iron Mania – each day (we hope) we will have Iron Man toy-related content, all leading up to the premiere of Iron Man 2. Then, on premiered day, we’ll hold a Free Stuff drawing and give away this prize pack consisting of two Iron Man baddies, Iron Monger and Crimson Dynamo. Iron Monger is from the Movie Series and was the villain from the first movie. Crimson Dynamo is from the Comic Series and is a classic Iron Man villain.
To find out how to qualify to win the Iron Mania prize pack, check out our Free Stuff page. Good luck and enjoy AFP’s Iron Mania!
