I'm definitely picking up the model 20 Iron Man. Definitely one of my favorite armor designs ever and it'll definitely become my main Avengers display Iron Man.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

It's a really good one!

[@legotimefuntime5438]

The problem with superior Iron Man that there’s no gray accents or secondary colors. So he looks like an Iron Man without a paint job.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

True

[@Stopmotionguy2049-cf2bp]

Babe wake up a new 5 POA video just came out!!!

[@orinanime]

I hope they make a Model 9 version 2 with the alternate legs. And in the deep red and gold. The Mo.09 is my 2nd favorite armor. I prefer Version 2 because it's how he looked in the Captain America and The Avengers game. I'm currently working on getting Marvel Legends Figures of all of the characters that appear in that game.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Nice! Yes, I hope they do that as well

[@Crim-kun]

one od the few times I wish model 20 had pre posed repulsor hands so it's molded to accommodate the hand flap. it's a problem on the toybiz version too

[@5POAFigureReviews]

You know I forgot the toy Biz did a version of this one.

[@keithwhite394]

Looks like I'm grabbing the model 20. Thanks!

[@5POAFigureReviews]

You're welcome!

[@jaybeematthewbacarro9001]

Oh boy here we go. Definitely love an Iron Man comparison 👌👌👌

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Ditto!

[@AliciaFytche]

I picked up the trade paper backs of superior iron man alongside this figure and loved the story, these two are my most recent figures and while there maybe be more in favor of the model 20 I find myself having more fun with superior iron man because of how much cooler his suit and personality are

[@5POAFigureReviews]

At the time I didn't like, but over time I have come to appreciate it as a fun story

[@jaynyethatmemeguy9384]

An update on the bleeding edge armor, Ultimate armor, Thorbuster, Mcu Mark 4-6, and 42 would be awesome (hasbro could hust repaint a new 42 mold into a 43 if they made one)

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Agreed all around!

[@BadAssXerx3]

superior is on my list, agree that the colors are wrong but as far as I remember he looked mostly wehite in the comicbooks too, good review

[@Warui88]

Looks like I'll be picking up that Model 20 when I get the time. Tempted to cut down the pegs for the blasts so there isn't as much of a gap.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Good thinking!

[@bagginsfrodos]

I didn't read Superior Iron Man because I was tired of the hero turned villian trope lol and the Superior title lol😅

[@ryantheanimator1156]

It's actually model 24, not 25. 24 is the one with the back fins which is what Hasbro should have labeled him as, not 20.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Well, I'll tell ya, I did a lot of Googling to figure that one out and got the same pics for 24 and 25, but 25 seemed the safer guess. Ah well. Either way, the armor from the Best Defense arc

[@JBTMR]

An Iron Man Face Off Yay!

[@5POAFigureReviews]

I still have a couple more planned for the rest of the year! Including a very big one.

[@JBTMR]

@@5POAFigureReviews awesome, can’t wait! By the way, if I might make a suggestion you should try to review some wrestling figures since they are getting popular!

[@GuyWebz]

On my “model 20” I cut away the excess wrist guard pieces on the hands so he can actually use his wrist hinge and bend them up for a repulsor blast

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Good thinking!

[@coreyrobinson7585]

Most of Superior's appearances were pretty inconsistent with colors, so it's not exactly "inaccurate".

[@5POAFigureReviews]

And that's fair. I used to have the Superior comic but gave it to someone a while back, so for this video I had to play Google detective and just pour over as many panels and pages I could find online, and to my eye anyway it seemed to me it was a light chrome silver most of the time, but there are definitely inconsistencies for sure

[@MTB214]

They look cool’s I have the ai Tony stark iron man. I want to make the blue beetle movie McFarlane figure into a custom Ironman.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

That would be a fun custom! It already looks like Stealth Iron Man LOL

[@mondayadams8166]

They both look pretty good and I doubt either would make an iron man fan unhappy right? Haha

[@christinaclos1820]

what is the name of the 2 spider mans right here? 7:32

[@5POAFigureReviews]

The Marvel Legends is generally called Pizza Spidey but is from the 2017 Vintage (or Retro) Wave 1. The tall one is a Marvel Select Spectacular Spider-Man.

[@nicholasleon787]

We need a bleeding edge armor

[@5POAFigureReviews]

For sure!

[@megagrey]

No contest. The 'superior' one looks like he's encrusted in enamel, while the Model 20 is clearly the crown jewel of the retro wave.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Agreed

[@edrianraneses5864]

Tell me are you planning on doing a new 52 Cyborg Superman and Eradicator figure reveal at the same time next?

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Haven't received my Cyborg Superman yet, and haven't found an affordable Eradictor. Next slate of videos are Let There by Carnage, Joker and Punchline, and Sam Wilson Captain America.

[@edrianraneses5864]

@@5POAFigureReviews Okay what about Secret Empire Cap then?

[@redboone1509]

Getting as far away from Iron man as possible w/o leaving marvel, are you getting the V2LtbC Carnage?

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Not only AM I getting it, my preorder arrived today, and the video will be sometime this week

[@redboone1509]

@@5POAFigureReviews looking forward to watching, hopefully while I mess with mine. Bbts takes awhile to get to my house tho for some reason

[@redboone1509]

@@5POAFigureReviews from what I've seen already he needs a black dry brushing and maybe even a wash. Hes kinda lacking in black paint

[@theguardian3431]

Jason, I love your writing. I was a bit too late to see the last video where someone unreasonably complained about a joke. I hope you know that no one can cater to everyone's sensitivities Everything can potentially be "triggering" to someone. There was clearly no malice on your part, so please don't treat that complaint as representstive of how the majority of us feel. Some people just love to be recreationally outraged and expect others to cater to them at all times. I hope you don't fall into that trap and neuter your writing just to appease a noisy minority, since they will always find something offensive. It's a bottomless pit of absurdity. To be clear, it was obviously a joke, a funny one at that. Keep the great content coming, man. Continue being you. We support you! 🙂

[@Great_Getter]

What was Marvel's obsession with the word Superior?

[@5POAFigureReviews]

They should do a crossover with DC and call up the Superior Crisis

[@Crimsontoys]

Technically the superior iron man suit is white in the comics the figure just probably just needed a little bit of shine

[@ADour1996]

Nah, it's 100% chrome. Tony says so himself explicitly in Superior Iron Man #1: "Also, it has a chrome finish, and it lights up in ways that please me."

[@Crimsontoys]

@@ADour1996 Well Marvel confirmed it is white

[@ADour1996]

@@Crimsontoys Where? Because the very same comic in which Tony explicitly says it's chrome and the coloring shows it as chrome-like was definitely published by Marvel.

[@CodyMichaels21]

Once you pointed out it should have been chrome it was over. Done. Finished. Superior Iron Man might as well have said “We beat Medicare..”

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Who needs Medicare when you have Tony's Extremis App? Just stand within 20 feet of him at all times and it's free lol

[@Red_River_Films]

I’m gonna just buy ZD toys and the odd Marvel Select from now on. Legends absolutely sucks now. That white suit is atrocious and this is from someone who bought some pretty bad iron man figures.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

One of these days I need to take a ZD Toys Tony for a spin

[@Red_River_Films]

@@5POAFigureReviews my only critique of those figures is the shoulder joints. You get great posing but you have to pull the should pad over to hide the ball joint. Otherwise, absolutely amazing and not much more money than legends.
