Review: Nendoroid Iron Man Mark VII Rip-Off Knock-Off KO

We will look at the popular Iron Man Nendoroid figure, except this one is a knock off found on Ebay.

On Ebay, and other overseas shops, you will see some pretty impressive looking pictures of the Nendoroid Iron Man figure. All posed in dynamic poses, flying, and with the mask raised to show Tony Stark's face. You'd think "Wow, awesome posability and removable mask for an low price. GREAT."

When you finally get the figure. You actually find that you get 3 different figures. Lets take a look at what we got.

You get 3 Iron Man figures, 2 clear bases, a city diorama base with stark tower, and some clear posts to hold up the figures.


Let look at these figures. Ironman with the hand out the model looks good and is nice and heavy and is made out of a soft plastic. The paint job isn't bad, it has the very shiny metal glossy paint on it. But there is no articulation in the figure at all. The body and legs are molded together. This is a static statue and the mask does not come off.

Iron Man with the mask up. Also looks good and also it has no articulation, everything is glued in place. Even if you pry off the joints, you see they are designed to only go in in one position. You cannot glue them into any other position without some modifications. This one uses the same body and feet mold of the other one.

Flying Iron Man. Just like the other figures, it has similar paint jobs, with additional thruster flames coming out of his hands and feet. And like the other figures, everything is permanently glued in place and reuses the same body mold.

these were designed to be attached to the base stands. The flying Iron Man should go on the diorama. The diorama base is a bit warped and the plastic posts are really cheap and fragile.  The plastic post actually broke off in the base where I had to drill a hole on the bottom to push out the broken bit. After you get him attached, it looks okay for a static model, but it looks like it will fall over any minute. gluing some weights to the base will help prevent him from falling down.

You can attach this standing Iron Man to the base using this shorter post so he won't fall over due to the small feet.

Now you have the last Iron Man with a stand and no post, You can  So this one will fall over constantly.

So that is it. Make sure you get the correct Nendoroid figure if you plan on getting one. As static models they aren't very bad looking, hopefully you didn't pay very much for these.
