The helmet and the gauntlet? There is nothing wrong with it. There's something wrong with people who assume it's for your son/nephew.

I know!
It's quite sexist and ageist.
I should have complained, heh.
But I'm thrown out of enough shops.

Fanboys by and large don't typically understand girls in their playground. Or the fact that fangirls like the same toys that fanboys so and not because they want to be like fanboys, but like these things for their own merit.

1) Yes. I think it was a premonition or something- her calling his name, a shot of his own face, and I think the arc reactor (or the miniature one). It's a bit confusing.

Ahhh, clever.
I spotted the arc reactor and everything too actually.

Answer to 1:

Yes I believe it was Pepper's voice. And you hear her call "Tony!" again at the end after he defeated Iron Monger when he's laying there with his arc light thingie sorta flickering off--but then it flickers on after she calls his name........

Ooh, I didn't realize that.
Aww, it's true love.

That's a pretty clever idea.
Jon Favreau really is quite amazing.

Neither of mine are on there, hmmm.
Might have to double check... octuple check?... and add them.

I know!
And it does actually say on the back that it fits right the way through to adults.
There's an excuse right there!

I got the same thing when I purchased my action figure and some comic books recently. Apparently, girls don't like superheros. :(

Pfrt.
I've been a Marvel geek for the past 14 years, I'm worse than some guys I know.
You'd think in this day and age that people would stop being so black and white about gender roles.

Phooey. I grew up on the SuperHeroes, both DC and Marvel. You don't have to be a girl to enjoy the comics. Hmph.

Guys always seem really happy to see me when I'm in a comic shop. I'm not sure why that is.
