Mezco Stealth Iron Man Review

I’ve had the Mezco Stealth Iron Man since it dropped a couple of months ago. I wasn’t intending on doing a full review. However, the thing is so nice in hand that I had to at least take pictures. Since this is the exact same buck, with the exact same accessories, you can look at any of the other two reviews.

If you’re interested in picking him up, here are some links to make your life easier (I’m a giver):

The Mezco Stealth Iron Man is a fun figure for your Iron Man display, made with exceptional quality and attention to detail. However, he is not a figure you need to have on your shelf. If you WANT him, I can’t say you’re wrong.
