He is the armor clad, energy, whip wielding specialist, Whiplash! The most loved villain ever battled in Iron Man 2. Recreating an Arc Reactor based on his father’s design and building armor similar to the Iron Man’s, Whiplash has terrified Tony Stark at the Monaco racing track.

In response to the continued popularity of Hot Toys’ earliest creations, we are pleased to officially present the 1/6th scale Whiplash collectible figure with a road and pavement diorama figure stand as an exclusive item available only in selected markets.

The movie-accurate figure is skillfully crafted based on Mickey Rourke’s portrayal of Whiplash/Ivan Vanko, Iron Man’s enemy in the movie, features a newly painted head sculpt with detailed hair sculpture, remarkable patterned tattoos on upper body, LED light-up Arc Reactor on chest and back, finely tailored costume with burnt marks, Whiplash’s deadly electricified whips and electric effects, as well as a specially designed diorama figure stand.
