Rarity
Uncommon; it was available in two Avengers: Endgame sets, making it widely accessible but discontinued.
Head
Standard Iron Man helmet with a flip-up gold faceplate (Part 2446pb01); inner head features a double-sided Tony Stark face print with determined and focused 'HUD' expressions.
Torso
Dark Red with gold and silver printing depicting the nanotech Mk 85 suit details; includes Arc Reactor print on front and mechanical detailing on back; Dark Red arms and hands.
Legs
Dark Red with gold and silver knee/thigh armor printing; uses standard hip piece; no side leg printing.
Accessories
Trans-Light Blue power blast/repulsor dish (Part 27393) and a 1x1 round plate; typically comes with a hair piece for Tony Stark when helmet is removed.
Color Scheme
A sophisticated Dark Red, Gold, and Silver palette meant to mimic the cinematic nanotech finish.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on the torso (front/back) and legs (front). The alignment on the gold faceplate is a common focal point for collectors.
Variants
This specific torso appears with a specialized 'Infinity Gauntlet' arm in set 76131; subsequent versions in 2020 used a different helmet mold (single-piece).
Condition Notes
The gold faceplate is prone to scratching; the Dark Red plastic may show 'stress marks' (turning white) if legs are forced onto tight plates.
Estimated Value
Used: $8.00 - $12.00 USD; New/Mint: $15.00 - $18.00 USD. The photo shows a $12 tag which is a fair market retail price.

First appeared in sets 76131 ($99.99) and 76192 ($69.99).
Compatible Sets

Character Background
Tony Stark's final armor used in Avengers: Endgame. This suit represents the pinnacle of nanotechnology used to engage Thanos.
Design Notes
The last iteration to use the 'hinged' helmet design before LEGO transitioned many Iron Man figures to a static, non-opening helmet mold.
Similar Minifigures
Iron Man Mk 50 (sh496), Iron Man Mk 43 (sh167), and the Invincible Iron Man (sh232).
Collectibility
High; as the armor from Tony Stark's final cinematic appearance, it holds significant sentimental and completionist value for MCU fans.
History
Part of the first wave of sets following the release of the record-breaking Endgame film; it marks the transition from comic-style to movie-accurate armor textures.
Interesting Facts
The gold printing on this figure was specifically updated to match the 'classic comic gold' requested by movie audiences for the Mk 85 suit.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed with a Trans-Clear stand to simulate flight, alongside a Thanos BigFig or the Nano Gauntlet build.
Modification Potential
Highly compatible with custom 'Infinity Stones' arm pieces or fabric capes to simulate the 'Dr. Strange' team-up moments.
Overall Assessment
An essential centerpiece for any Marvel collector; excellent printing and the classic helmet mold make this the definitive movie Iron Man of the late 2010s.
