103 pieces for $20 — LEGO® charged full mini-set money for what feels like a bonus bag from a bigger set. The two minifigs are the only reason to touch this one.
Is the price fair?F$20 for 103 pieces is a stretch — you're basically paying minifig prices with a small build thrown in.
Will you love it?C+The minifigs carry it; the build itself is gone from memory before the box hits the recycling bin.
Holds its value?C-Flat secondary market, nothing here to drive demand once it retires.

The Full Take
Iron Man vs. Thanos is essentially a polybag in retail box clothing — 103 pieces at $19.99 is a tough sell when the build itself is a forgettable little skirmish diorama that won't impress on a shelf or challenge at a table. The two minifigs are legitimately the entire value proposition here, and whether that's worth $20 depends entirely on how badly you want that particular Thanos. The build wraps in under 20 minutes and leaves almost no impression after it's done. As a standalone Marvel set it sits in that awkward middle zone — too small to display proudly, not cheap enough to dismiss as an impulse grab. If you're completing a Marvel shelf this is a gap-filler, not a centerpiece. A C- overall feels about right: it exists, it's fine, and it moves on.
