Hot Toys, with a financial boner that can presumably be seen from space with the naked eye at this point, are busy rolling out plenty of Avengers: Endgame toys and with a market that happily snaps up every Iron Man figure released by them every 27 seconds, this latest and final incarnation of James Rhodes in his trademark armour may just be the creme de la creme of the lot.
