Every year it seems that toys keep getting better and better and they were already pretty damn good back in my day. The Iron Man II War Machine Figure is one of the most life-like toys I have seen yet, capturing all of the actor's facial features and expressions.
Designed by Hot Toys, the Iron Man II War Machine Figure is being released just before the summer blockbuster comes to theaters and is sure to be a hit with kids and nerdy toy collectors alike.
