Sentinel ’s late take on Iron Man is middling much Iron Man with a goddamn heavy weapon emplacement slapped on top of his armor .

The bulky Iron Avenger stands in a 6 - in ordered series , and comes with multiple posable hands and a ton of weapons , from a plasma cannons to a radiocarpal joint blade for if the elephantine gunman on his shoulder had n’t quite killed you into next week yet .

Fisher-Price Imaginext Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers
It ’s heavy to top the28 - inch marvelous BatBot Xtreme that Fisher - Price revealedat Toy Fair 2017 last calendar month , but the blade ’s Imaginext line — essentially toddler - secure action figures — is soon elaborate to include even more toys based on the original US version of the Mighty Morphin ’ Power Rangers . Ranging in cost from $ 7 for Squat and Baboo figure , to $ 35 for the Power Rangers command center playset , Fisher - Price seems to be targeting nostalgic parents , since the current generation of bambino will doubtlessly be more familiar with the more recent incarnations of the show , or else of the classical loop .

Figuarts Qui-Gon Jinn
The circle is now staring — that is , if you ’re a fan of Figuarts ’ Star Wars toys and want to be able to full recreate the affaire d’honneur on Naboo between Darth Maul , Obi - Wan Kenobi , and Qui - Gon Jinn from The Phantom Menace . Bandai ’s belated figure in the ace articulated 6 - inch line is none other than Liam Neeson ’s Jedi skipper himself . Complete with his green lightsaber ( capable of being hang from his whack or erupt for combat ) and multiple hand pose , he ’s sodding to square off in a battle to the toy - death with the troupe ’s Maul frame . I wonder if he comes with a hole in the centre of his intestine to recreate his death scene ? [ Toyark ]
