Hunched over, it's quite apparent where Igor got his name, the figure featuring two back plates that slide out and lock up. The gimmick allows Igor to haul heavy items - such as a large steel cargo container - on his back.
Similarly, Igor features a two-pronged flap that flips down on each arm, just like a forklift. Hot Toys even sculpted rails on the back of Igor's arms that simulate the forklift being able to move up and down. Unfortunately, that feature isn't functional on the figure. Like past Iron Man figure releases, Igor's fingers are each individually articulated, in case those arm lifts and back lifts aren't enough to get the job done.
Another nice feature, albeit an unnecessary one, is the ability to move each individual spine plate. To do this, you'll want to start at the top and work your way down, as articulating an armor plate in the middle proves difficult. It's a cool effect, as is the entire sculpt on Igor's back. It's all very mechanical and operational looking. In fact, the Igor figure is completely operational - the figure, despite its bulk, being pretty well articulated. His head can rotate all around, and like a turtle, can even extend and retract a little. There's all those back plates that move, arm lifts, individual fingers, hinged shoulder pads for added flexibility with the ball-jointed shoulders, the list goes on. Stability wise, Igor stands rather solid - in a hunched over pose. Displayed fully erect causes some balancing issues, but I don't expect many fans to pose him that way.
Igor doesn't include anything in the way of accessories, no interchangeable hands and certainly no display stand. He does, however, feature the requisite light-up Iron Man armor. Once activated, Igor's eyes, chest and hand repulsors all glow a brilliant white.
