It took all the willpower I had not to sob like a child...
When Tony was sitting after his snap and was so messed up he couldn't even talk or acknowledge those around him... Watching him drift off after Peper told him he could rest is where I started to lose it, and If I was alone and not in a theater I would have lost it completely as if I'd just watched my father pass away... I, like many others, knew Tony's end was inevitable... but I still wasn't ready for it and was praying they would find a way to let him survive... But what a way to go out.
I've been reeling for days wondering where they will go from here and hoping beyond hope that there is some way they can bring RDJ back into the fold, but this feels so permanent and it's still breaking my heart... The MCU and Iron Man means so much to me, probably more than any movie series should mean to someone, but it's gonna take awhile longer to fully process it.
These movies will never feel the same again knowing Tony and Steve are probably gone forever. No matter how disappointing a part of the MCU may have been, I had that emotional safety blanket knowing they'd both be back on screen at some point. And it's over...

I wholeheartedly agree. My best friend loved Iron Man, and he got me into collecting Hot Toys Iron Man figures. My best friend passed away unexpectedly on April 12th 2017. So he never got a chance to see how all of this ended. So Tony's passing really hit hard for me.
I'm really sorry for your loss... One of my best friends also passed away last September after lost his battle with cancer. I got him into these movies and he seemed kind of uninitiated until Civil War when we started having real theory conversations about the movies as he slowly caught up with the movies he skipped... After infinity war we both talked constantly for months about what we thought would happen... I miss him a lot.

The weapons:
Awesome gifs !!
I'd only get this if they add the Stark Gauntlet.
If they were to do a battle damaged version I can't necessarily see it coming just as a con special. That only limits the number they can sell.
Like someone said, they'll be milking this as long as possible.
Anyway will wait a bit and see.

Thanks.. And that is why I am going to continue collecting Hot Toys Iron Man figures till they stop making them. As long as I can afford to get them I will. It helps me deal with the fact he is no longer here.
Well darn. No wonder it hit you so hard. You have my condolences.
I’m an emotional guy at the movies. So I was already getting chills at the beginning when Clint was enjoying a picnic with his family because I knew what was inevitable. Naturally, I was tearing up when his family faded into ashes and he didn’t understand what was happening.
There was a sense of satisfaction in Thanos’ decapitation, not only as a punishment, but as a close to the cycle of him restoring balance. It was as if he didn’t really resist. He was dying knowing he was the victor. He was... inevitable.
I also teared up when Natasha insisted on Clint letting her fall to her death. Especially when I realized she wasn’t even holding onto him while dangling there.
I may be on my own on this one, but when Thanos saw his army and top soldiers fading into ashes, I was filled with conflicting emotions. Not only was justice being done as he was experiencing what everyone else had at the end of the previous movie, but I was saddened that he would never realize his dream of bringing balance. I grew to like the mad titan during Infinity War. I loved that he sacrificed everything for what he believed in. I sympathized with his loss. After a few moments of him sitting there, I thought, “Wow. Did Tony allow him to live as a punishment.” As Thanos began fading into ashes, I imagined Tony saying, “Nope. He’s too dangerous to be kept alive.”
Like you, I was losing it as Tony lay there all messed up. When Pepper told him it was okay, I knew that was it. She was giving him permission to let go and die. My eyes were all teared up then.
As the wreath floated with the “Proof Tony Stark Has A Heart,” I was forced to accept he was lost. That was rough.
Cap staying in the past so he could live a life as Tony suggested, brought everything full circle for me. My eyes are watering up just typing this. As he and Peggy danced, I was done holding back. A few tears actually ran down my face. Perfect conclusion.

Ha yeah I'm all for battle-damage, but don't think I'd really want a totally accurate, burnt-to-a-crisp Tony figure in my collection. Since he was already in pretty bad shape by the time he got the Infinity Stones.

I came very close a few times. I almost did when Ant-Man reunited with his daughter and he saw she was now a teenager, as I found that scene to be touching. They said no words to each other, but there were really no words needed in order to know what they were thinking and feeling.
During Black Widow’s death, but mostly because I think Hawkeye sold the scene so well and gave it tons of emotion. Not to take anything away from Black Widow’s actions because she’s the one who made the sacrifice, but just the look of pain and anguish on Hawkeye’s face while he was still dangling off the ledge and looking down. I thought he was going to scream in anguish.
When Tony’s hologram was giving his monologue about what he hoped his sacrifice (and BW’s) did, and it showed the montage of all the families being reunited. When it showed Hawkeye being reunited with his family, I just made me think of probably literally the thousands, maybe millions, of other families also now being reunited because of Tony’s last “I am Iron Man.” moment.
And then when Dr. Strange gave Tony the signal that this was the “one” outcome where they win, and that it was him that was up to bat, so to speak.

The one part that really got to me was when Pepper told Tony - you can rest now. Ever since the first Iron Man, he was consumed with trying to protect the world at the expense of everything else in his life. So when she told him he could let go, that was really impactful to me (and I think each scene is more impactful when it draws certain parallels to your personal life). Didn't help that the lady next to me was sobbing like crazy (while my wife was on the other side snoozing away).

Proof that this guy doesn't have a heart.
16 posts in three years. Do you really think he’s here because he actually collects 1/6 figures? “You mad, bro?” has got to be the first phrase that page 1 in the Trolling For Dummies guidebook tells the reader to say in order to try and elicit an emotional response out of someone. After that, it probably tells the reader to use terms like “triggered” and “butt hurt.”
Just take a moment to ponder how miserable and aggrieved one undoubtedly has to be in order to resort to trolling a collectibles forum. And then laugh.
I'm not gonna lie. Heck, I just got back from vacation and my coworkers were asking me if I watched Endgame, and I told them yes, and I cried like a baby.
The one that really got me is...

tears of joy when Cap is reunited with Peggy, finding the love of his life.
I guess it was sentimental for me cause I myself, found the love of my life, and she and I are getting married this November.
So its was like...way to go Cap, I'm happy for you too!!! Cap is my favorite MCU Character.

I'm on the other side of the fence with how Caps story played out...

... as it was the one thing about the movie that left a bad taste in my mouth... not to say I'm not glad Steve got what he truly deserved in the end... But the way he messed with time doesn't sit right with me... Plus, if every change they make in the past results in an alternate timeline branch, then how could that be the same Steve that left? I donno. I'm really broken up about Tony's sacrifice, but I have a feeling there was more to Steve's ending than we've seen.

Congrats.
I actually didn’t really find that scene emotion evoking for me. For me, it was Cap’s Miljolnir moment.
Thanks man! 
The scene with Cap picking up Thor's hammer was great and I think I was the loudest guy in the movie...I started yelling HOLY *****TTT!!! Freaking AWEESSSSOOOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
lol, was definitely very vocal on that part. My buddy was laughing at me.

It's funny how the movie affected different people at different times.
The folks sitting to my right were crying at one point,
.
My emotional moment came when I laughed at them in response.

Few of my highlights:
going again this thursday. Such a great movie. Left Infinity War, it felt like a good movie. Left Endgame, it felt like the best Marvel movie. Civil War takes the 2nd spot.

- Cap vs Cap (I can do this all day... I know I know. Bucky... Is.. Still... Alive)
- Tony and Pepper in their suits, using all the beans back to back, the camera going around them.
- The shot with Cap standing alone against the whole army, then you hear Falcon. 'Captain.... On your left.'
- The moment they need to get the Gauntlet away from Thanos. 'Clint. Give it to me!' 'Hi Peter Parker, you got something for me?'

On to the humorous moments. The one that I laughed at the hardest was Ant-Man with the taco in front of the Avengers HQ. His facial expression as all the contents were blowing out just made me laugh so hard.
