Following a glitzy film premiere in 2008, a large range of superb Iron Man toys were released to accompany the latest movie franchise. This has helped to ensure that the legendary Marvel Comics superhero has become a massive hit with a whole new generation of children - and various follow-on films should keep the Iron Man toy franchise going for many years to come.
Created back in 1963, Iron Man is the most powerful, high-tech superhero in the world: When billionaire inventor Tony Stark puts on his armoured suit, he becomes the invincible Iron Man, fighting for justice with his scientific genius and his ability to fly faster than a jet plane! With Hasbro signed up as the toy master licence holder, their ranges of Iron Man toys literally fly off retailers shelves and warehouses.
As well as a range of movement-activated action figures, other terrific Iron Man toys include the Iron Man Bobble Head Doll, Mask and Gauntlet and Iron Man Dressing Up Costume. Iron Man 2 released in cinemas in May 2010 and the associated toys and merchandise continues to be popular purchases.
Iron Man 3 is in the planning stages with a release date of May 2013 already decided. Iron Man is almost certain to fight his arch enemy Mandarin who was made famous in the original comic series. Robert Downey Jnr., Gwyneth Paltrow and Scarlett Johansson are confirmed cast members with Shane Black as director. Fans of the films should keep a close watch out for another exciting and innovative selection of Hasbro toys, gifts and other licensed products.
