Marvel Super Heroes
Year Released
Released in 2019. This version debuted as part of the Avengers: Endgame wave, coinciding with the massive 10-year cinematic finale. This period marked a transition into more movie-accurate (though sometimes stylized) facial details.
Rarity
Uncommon. While not a limited promotional item, it was exclusive to a single, mid-priced set (76125 Iron Man Hall of Armor), making it rarer than those found in smaller polybags or widely distributed vehicle sets.
Head
Light Nougat tone. The head features a double-sided print: one side with a determined scowl and a small scratch on the cheek, the other side with a standard smirk. It includes Tony's signature goatee. The hair is the spiked-back 'swept back with sideburns' piece in black.
Torso
Light Bluish Gray torso. The design depicts a simple henley shirt with a button-up collar and subtle fabric fold creases. It features back printing of the same shirt patterns. The arms are Light Bluish Gray with Light Nougat hands.
Legs
Plain Dark Blue legs with no printing. The hip piece color matches the legs.
Accessories
In its original set (76125), it did not come with hand-held items, as the figure was meant to be placed inside various Iron Man suits available in the display bay.
Color Scheme
The primary color scheme consists of Neutral Gray and Dark Blue. This 'casual' look is chosen to contrast with the яркий red and gold metallic finishes of his armored suits.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on the head and torso. The facial printing is quite detailed, capturing Robert Downey Jr.'s likeness well for the era. The shirt printing is minimalist but clean.
Variants
There are dozens of Iron Man/Tony Stark variants. This specific 'sh573' variant is distinguished by the combination of the scowling henley shirt torso and the dark blue legs. Other versions (e.g., sh036) use different shirts or black legs.
Condition Notes
Common wear points include the neck 'chaffing' where the head rotates and potential silvering/fading of the black facial hair print. The dark blue legs are prone to visible scratches if played with.
Estimated Value
Current market value is approximately $7 - $12 USD for a used complete figure. New/Near Mint figures can reach $15 USD. The price is relatively stable due to the set's high production volume.
Price (New)
The set it appeared in (76125) retailed for $59.99 USD. Since the set contained 6 minifigures, the price-per-figure ratio was roughly $10 at retail.
Compatible Sets
Set 76125 Iron Man Hall of Armor (2019).
Character Background
Tony Stark, the billionaire inventor behind Iron Man. This specific look represents his workshop attire in the MCU, where he spends long hours tinkering with Mark suits. It represents a more vulnerable, human side of the character.
Design Notes
The torso mold is a great 'generic' part that LEGO designers leveraged for a civilian look. The choice of Dark Blue legs over Black helps distinguish this specific version from earlier 'workshop' iterations.
Similar Minifigures
Tony Stark (sh213) from the specialized 'Iron Legion' era, Tony Stark (sh036) from the 2012 sets, or Bruce Banner (sh408) who shares a similar civilian aesthetic.
Collectibility
High collectibility for Marvel completions. Every Iron Man collector needs at least one 'Workshop Tony' to populate a Hall of Armor display. It is unlikely to skyrocket in value but will remain a staple sought-after figure.
History
Tony Stark first appeared in 2012 (sh036). Over the years, his facial design evolved from a simple 'Classic Space' style smile to the more complex, expressive Robert Downey Jr. inspired prints seen here.
Interesting Facts
Though this specific head was used for Tony, the torso print actually appeared on other civilian figures in the LEGO City line, showcasing LEGO's 'economical design' philosophy.
Display Suggestions
Ideal for placement in a 'Hall of Armor' MOC. It looks best when surrounded by armored suits like the Mark 1, 5, or 50. Use warm LED lighting to simulate a lab environment.
Modification Potential
Excellent for purist customs. The head and torso are very versatile for creating other civilian characters or movie-star MOCs due to the realistic detailing.
Overall Assessment
A solid B-tier minifigure. It captures the essence of the character perfectly without being overly flashy. It is an essential component for any Marvel Cinematic Universe collector.
