If any of you are familiar with my loves, you will know that Hot Toys and Iron Man is way up top on my list of numerous obsessions. On that note, I couldn’t help, but freak out when master movie collectibles designer/producers, Hot Toys announced earlier this year that they will be continuing their insanely pwn-some Iron Man Movie Masterpiece line well into the Iron Man 2 movie franchise. My mouth watered thinking about the possibilities. Everything from a 12 inch (1:6 scale) War Machine, Iron Man Mark IV, V, and VI Movie Masterpiece figure were dancing in my heard, only to be disappointed by the Hot Toy’s newest teaser image which featured… Whiplash.
Yeah, I know. This little bad ass Iron Man 2 poster dropped last week, but I can’t help but cover EVERYTHING and anything related to Jon Faverau’s upcoming Iron Man sequel. Mickey Rourke’s Whiplash gets the Iron Man 2 poster treatment this time around. It is hard to say whether I like the Whiplash character cause I am basing my opinion based on the small tidbits that I saw in the trailer. Whiplash gets his hands on the mini-arc reactor technology that Tony Stark utilizes to power his Iron Man suit and creates….. electric whips. Right… Either way, I trust Jon Faverau’s ability to tell stories and develop characters so I am pretty sure Whiplash will turn out to be a hard ass. Enjoy!
