Remember playing Operation growing up? Yeah, it gave me heart murmurs, especially when I'd just replaced the 'D' batteries. BZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!. Anyway, this is a new version, cleverly branded with Iron Man. Nice, but I'm passing. You see, I don't play Operation anymore, only Doctor. You down? Okay cool, turn your head and cough.
