Iron Man 3 Next Armors

[Webfoot Hero]

The main thing I hate about the new suit isn't that it's mainly gold; it's that the gold looks like a creamy beige instead of metallic gold. When I think of the MCU IM suits, I think of metallic gold. I'm hoping the suit they showed as SDCC was either a version that Stark only wears in the early part of the movie or it's an unfinished model they put together quickly before getting the metallic gold done so they'd have something to show off for their panel and exhibit.

I have the sneaking suspicion that, in the movie, it's unfinished. The paint job didn't get wrapped up or something.

We already know that the mansion gets blown all to pieces. Maybe Tony has to skip a bit more than the 'spinning rims' to get out in time.

 

[DrDoom]

I DOUBT THAT THEY WOULD BRING OUT FOR DISPLAY AT COMIC-CON AN ARMOR THAT IS ONLY PARTIALLY COMPLETE IN THE FILM.

-DOOM

That is one ugly suit. I can't believe Shane Black of all people approved this. sabetoonth's colouring is lightyears better than the official one.

Why not? If the armor he uses in the film never gets the final paint job, what are they to do? Just not let us see the armor at all?

 

[DrDoom]

They wouldn't have written it in the script where he doesn't put on the finished version of the new suit at all, that just doesnt make any sense.

That suit, like it or not, is the completed look for THAT version of the armor.

 

[Hypestyle]

what about the black/gold armor that they're showing now?

 

[Gothams Reckoning]

I think they made this suit how it is because people pressure them to have entirely unique suits every movie, and that makes it difficult to stick to the basic suit that everyone came to love and become accustomed to

 

[Juicy J]

I trust in Marvel. They haven't let us down yet, and I actually think the suit's pretty cool looking. Different, not what we were expecting, but it's still cool looking.
Going gold is a bold move and I think they'll pull it off.

 

[James_Smith]

I don't know what everybody's problem is with the new armor. Personally I love it (and with the colours, you really can't trust what was seen in the comic-con pics, because it's specifically tailored to the cameras used for filming, just like Spider-Man and Captain America's new suits were, and both of them turned out fine in the movie).

 

[MarvelKnight]

I don't got a problem with it, I would like to see the stealth armor though.

The blingy gold suit revealed at SDCC is the Mk42, not the Mk8. Based on the designation, this will probably be the final battle suit for the film. I don't like the design either, but from what I know (and both the early concept art and the SDCC footage confirms this), the Mk42's unique features should make for some good cinematic eye candy and hopefully more creative action sequences.

I'm also inclined to believe we'll see a lot of the suits in between the Mk7 and Mk42 in action for the final battle, so there'll be plenty of other suit designs on screen to distract the audience from the excessively gold Mk42.

42?

Why am I suddenly thinking that 42 has some significance to it?

Perhaps....

Referred to as "42" in AEMH, it was the 42nd idea that Tony Stark, Reed Richards and Hank Pym came up with.

Could there be a link to this and the MK42?

 

[DrDoom]

No, Fox owns the rights to the Negative Zone. It belongs to the FF rights package

But THIS is the only armor I've been wanting:

OMG, how cool would the Hulkbuster armor look on the big screen?

/drool

Would love to see it, even if it was a case of Tony testing the armor, with the help of The Hulk, in a training room type setting.

Awesome!

I didnt care to see Hulkbuster armor until you said this and I saw the above picture. Now it sounds like an amazing idea.

 

[DrDoom]

The Hulks always a wild card, they could easily work in that fact in the sequel. Maybe he starts to not trust the Avengers or thinks they are working with "puny Banner" to get rid of him.

 

[Hunter Rider]

That piece of art is stunning!

Mark 42?!

Where did you hear this?!

 

[storyteller]

Honestly I think we need to see this guy in action. It seems it may be a suit that looks good dirty and is nice for the cameras.

 

[DrCosmic]

As long as they 'earn' the gold by making it a side effect of some cool storyline where everything changes and the story works best if the suit matches that, I'm find with it. I don't think it's attractive in its own right. It actually seems a bit busy, and not just textured with tech, if that makes sense.

Haven't heard any of those rumors, but it could be very well be Mark42. If the story is that he loses everything (and sets up his move to New York) it would make a great deal of sense if he fabricates a bit ol' armory of Iron Man suits only to lose them all/have to blow them up.

imagin: tony talking to fury and he tells him he might want to step back, tony walks over to a masive metal michine, you cant tell what it is at the moment, it takes up the whole screen. he pats banner on the back and says its time to suit up: test run! banner walks past fury and says to him test run and stands next to him. tony steps in to waht looks like a cockpit, overhead door closes like his face plat and the massive armor rises up. he goes through a few lines of testing the interface. and then looks at baner, tony says "i said suit up" and aims at banner. fury looks at banner who shrugs saying this wasnt his idea. fury then turns to tony and as he steps toword him tony fires hitting banner into a conex. the hulk roars from inside the conex and tony says time for the real test.

 

[Hypestyle]

still waiting to see arctic armor. Ah, could be a cool visual, coming out of the ocean. battling on a snow-swept glacier landscape..

Latino Review says the new suit is the Mk47, my source says Mk42, either way it's in the 40s. The mini-spoiler on the suit's ability also confirms what I've heard about the final battle scene.
