Hasbro has apparently slipped in a variant into their new line of 3.75" Iron Man 2 figures. Reports are coming in from numerous readers who say they are seeing two different versions of the War Machine (Movie Series) figure on shelves. One with red eyes/chest piece and one with blue eyes/chest piece.
Based on reports, the version with red seems to be the more common version, it is also the version seen on the movie posters. It is unclear, but seems likely that this is actually a running change made by Hasbro during production and not an official variant. You can see in Hasbro's early PR images the figure was shown with blue, but later in the actual production piece they had on hand at Toy Fair earlier this month, the figure had red eyes.
Check out images below in our GALLERY of the early PR image with blue eyes and an image of the figure at Toy Fair with red eyes. We have also added an image of Marvelous News Reader Sammy243's figure he found on shelves with blue eyes.

I picked up Comic version and movie version of Warmachine today and mine has red around the eyes. I didn't pay attention to any others though.
the red seems to be the correct version. its the one shown on the promo posters, and the maskless rhodes figure has the red chest arch. but then again, the blue could also be correct. maybe the light changes color in the film....who knows. hell....buy'em both! 
Does anyone have a list of what Iron Man figures are out (or will be officially on the 1st)? I thought that the 12 I'd seen were the only ones we were going to get for awhile.
I guess I am hunting tomorrow!

I thought that the comic book one was the one that was shipping now. Is the movie version also available?
It's in an end cap display pack w/ several other movie IM figures.
I got it in the same assortment as the 3.75" mark IV, V, and VI Movie series. I didn't see any of the comic or first movie series.
