As far as the MCU goes, the Space Suit is by far the most aesthetically pleasing IMO

I'm guessing it'll be big enough to use up all the energy and effectively break his heart.

Space Armor looks like it's right out of Mass Effect.

^Impressive

[darkslayer101]

The only thing I am wondering is whether the space armor appears in the final battle, or whether just as an epilogue..

[Mr. Dent]

Marvel knocked it out of the park with these posters.

[Mako]

Godkiller Helmet!

[Whiskey Tango]

Oh wow I missed the Gwyneth one.

Mandarin's my favorite.

All of Iron Man's suits of armor have been gorgeous, save the first version. Even when we only had the comics to go by, I always thought that he was the hero whose design was the best looking of all. Marvel ha outdone itself with the movie designs, however. Not only is Iron Man wonderful to look at, he is also a total badass. As a fan I couldn't be happier with the way one of my favorite heroes has been portrayed on screen.

[Mr. Dent]

Fox could really take some marketing cues from Marvel/Disney...Wolverine who?

[eddy]

The new poster is awesome!

Yeah the only character who's costume I think was adapted better than Tony's was Spider-Man in the original trilogy(and apparently now the new film that's copying it)

[CastlesInTheAir]

I hate the raised webbing look and I can't believe they gave in to the fanboys who complained about the first suit. Not that I have any interest in the new Spider Man anyways, the last movie disappointed me a lot. But I did like the suit more. Now they're trying to appeal to Raimi fans.

[Webfoot Hero]

Total win so far by Marvel in their marketing of this movie. Really like they teased the other characters in the movie and now have showcased Tony and all his bada** suits. No explanation of what each one is, leaving people wondering and now interested to see what they've cooked up.

I'm in love with this armor.

It's not though. The Destroyer was built by Odin to battle Celestials. To battle freakin Celestials lol. Odin said it is the most powerful being to ever walk midgard.

MCU or not, something THAT powerful, or something based off something THAT powerful, I have a hard time being ok with it being so easily recycled

right, but I mean when people like me who have no knowledge of the Thor world see that thing as a big super powerful robot type monster from a distant world that is now on earth, so it makes sense to keep that theory going.

I understand that in the comics The Destroyer is super crazy powerful and scary but in the MCU it's clearly been given a different route to take. It still very well could have been the most powerful thing to walk midgard, but Thor was superior and what was left of the Destroyer has been adapted to the MCU to combat future Asguardian threats.

[DarthSkywalker]

Loving the collection of armors. Hopefully their differences are emphasized in battle.

Fanboys were constantly complaining about how "ugly" the suit was in TAS and how the "original" was better... now we've suddenly got one that looks almost exactly like the original. Anyways I'll stop going off topic.


I'm pretty sure this is the Asgardian Armor
