Unboxing the Figure

So popular they had to bring him back! War Machine, AKA Iron Man’s best friend James “Rhodey” Rhodes, returns in a reissued sixth scale figure. The War Machine Sixth Scale Collectible Figure is based on the character’s appearance in Marvel Studios’ Iron Man 2. As part of Hot Toys’ Movie Masterpiece series, it features an impressive diecast armor as well as LED light-up features.

The hand-painted portrait captures the appearance of Don Cheadle as Rhodey, which can also be swapped out for a helmeted head. The highly detailed suit includes additional battle-damaged sections, an articulated back-mounted machine gun with an interchangeable battle-ravaged barrel, plus hidden weapon compartments on the shoulders. A specially designed figure stand creates a dynamic diorama display, drawing inspiration from the final showdown with Whiplash!

Catch him before he disappears again! The War Machine Sixth Scale Collectible Figure is available to pre-order from Sideshow.

War Machine, Iron Man 2

“This lone gunslinger act is unnecessary. You don’t have to do this alone!” – James “Rhodey” Rhodes

When Tony Stark learns that the palladium core of his Iron Man suit is slowly poisoning him, he begins to lose his way. Luckily, Tony has his best friend James “Rhodey” Rhodes to snap him out of it — especially when Tony gets a little too reckless with his suit. Before Tony can do any real damage (to himself or others), Rhodey suits up as War Machine — and an iconic hero takes flight.
