Lego’s latest Iron Man display model will seemingly usher in a new era for Marvel building sets designed for adults. The Iron Man Mark 3 figure will be the only Lego Marvel model with “Collector’s Edition” in its official name. Lego has done this with some large Harry Potter sets, and Star Wars has the Ultimate Collector Series, so it makes sense that some Marvel sets would have a similar designation.
The Mark 3 figure is arguably Lego’s best-looking Iron Man build yet; at the very least, it’s the most realistic depiction of Tony Stark’s iconic suit from the MCU. The Mark 3 holds an important place in MCU lore, as it was the primary armor worn by Robert Downey Jr. in 2008’s Iron Man, the first movie in the Avengers: Infinity Saga arc. That distinction makes it a fitting debut for the Lego Marvel Collector’s Edition series.
