>>14201612
No way that's real.

I kind of miss when Tony having a new armor was more of an event with a little build-up. Like a new armor actually meant something and felt like a real upgrade. In the last two movies, he's just sort of... shown up in the new model in a sort of anticlimactic way. I was even a little dissapointed with how they unveiled the Hulkbuster of all things, and Iron Man 3 turned the suits into more of a gag than anything with individual gravitas.

I guess it's like the 10th movie in or whatever, but I miss the days when his new armor reveals were a little more impressive.

I really enjoyed Civil War but it kinda annoyed me how Tony was constantly taking his helmet off. Not only did it look less cool, the effect they use in place of an actual suit was really odd looking

>>14201608
yeah, that's pretty much why. I love the concept of the mobility of the suit and color scheme. I always viewed the jobbing as part of the inherent flaw in making a suitcase sized suit where you give up a lot of the armor and protection from the full suit, and like Hal said, I'm a sucker for flaws.

One time Kyle Rayner, a Green Lantern, made a Gurren Lagann energy construct. It was awesome.

Another time, Rob Liefeld traced Eva-02 as an Iron Man suit. It was less awesome.

>>14201637
the lack of ceremony with the suits in IM3 was explained in the story.

he was cranking them out by the dozens because of stress induced insomnia.

>>14201720
Yeah PTSD is a bitch.

Movie armors are shit.

>muh mark whatever
Sure.

>>14201626
There was a time when Hulk donned a magical armor that made him look like The World (Dio's Stand).

>>14201747
excellent point.

>>14201720

Yeah but even still. The Mk 6 had a build up with the new element, and had new features like the one off lasers.

The Mk7 had a similarily impressive reveal with the brancelets and coming to him remotely, and had new features like the missile pods and several beam lasers that now weren't one off.

But in AoU he just has the MK 43 at the start of the story, and then just pulls out the 45 without fanfare. And all of these armors don't do anything new. It's the usual repulsors unibeam and missiles.

In Civil War he just shows up at the airport with the 46 just like that. And like AoU it doesn't really have anything new beyond that it's helmet retracts now.

>>14201677
Because Tony is a 21st century schizoid man.

>>14201747
>muh mark whatever
You know that's a comic thing as well, right?

>>14201774
the 43 perfected the 42 moving parts proof of concept, introduced sentry mode as well as IR vision
the 45 was the first suit to be made entirely of vibranium and was made for heavy combat
the 46 was a non-lethal suit. it had soundwave based pacification as well as magnetic cuffs to subdue cap.

i'm not saying that these are all huge game changing features or awesome cinematic moments, but there are incremental improvements. tony (also the writers) aren't focused on reinventing the wheel every single time. to me, that's a good thing. repulsors are a pretty good non-firearm weapon, and he's not a weapons manufacturer anymore anyway.

>>14201792
Not for a while, though. In the comics Tony's been going on for long enough that the production numbers have gotten unwieldy. These days he just names his suits after whatever new tech he's added to them.

>>14201626
It kind of isn't. It's from the brief-lived (and mostly pretty bad) Marvel Mangaverse spin-off, where everything was a manga or anime reference. Iron Man was Gundam, the Fantastic Four were Evangelion, Dr. Strange was Slayers...it was weird.

Oh the Mangaverse was real. Unfortunately.
That's actually "Iron Woman" though, Tony's sister. Tony himself in that universe is a disembodied head that commands the Avengers from base. Later he uses a robot body to actually become Iron Man in the "New Mangaverse" limited series, which was a lot better than every single book in the original lineup (but still not something most people would call "good"). It also featured a qt female Cap.

XLVI is definitely the best suit so far, followed closely by Mark XLV, Mark XXXIII, and Mark VI.

>>14203015
Personally, I think the gold works best as mask and trim rather than large portions, one of the reasons XLV and XLVI look so good.

XLII and XLIII can fuck off, though. The Iron Man should always have a design philosephy that leads the eye to the center torso (the reactor) not all over the place.

it wasn't made clear, i pulled that from the movie wiki

but you can kinda see it. ultron's final form was made of vibranium and he was jacked to shit with flowing angular lines. in a similar way, tony's final suit in the movie had just as many curved lines.

maybe when they busted klaw's factory, ultron didn't make off with all the vibranium, and tony salvaged what he could. or maybe it isn't as freakishly rare as the first cap movie would have us believe and tony used his old weapon contacts to acquire some.

this is all just conjecture though. age of ultron wasn't exactly "well thought out"

>>14203255
It could also be that Tony salvaged some from the big explodo-pillar that fell into the sea at the end of AoU's final fight. That thing was fully intact when it landed.

>>14203255
MK 45, 9, and Python are the best suits.

>>14203237
>Whedon didn't think it was "meaningful".
The hell does that mean?

>>14203276
But he'd built the 45 before that final fight, though.

>>14203282
He talked about it in the commentary for the first Avengers, Whedon wanted Mark 7 to have a circular reactor again because that was more iconic and "meant something" to Tony's origin story.

Because apparently forging a connection to his father and saving his own life by creating a new element didn't mean anything.

>>14203296

Well it is a two part movie, and he's certain to call in Cap using the letter for it, but he'll probably base a new armor on the second movie on defeat in the first - so he'll probably pack in some new tech to combat Thanos. Cap will take his shield back then too obviously. Whether Bucky gets a new arm for it is the question. A proper vibranium one from Wakanda maybe.

you keep throwing this phrase out and yet i don't think that's actually a feature of the 46. stark has used his hand repulsors for flight since the mk 2 and he's had back thrusters since the mk 7.

i've seen civil war twice and nothing in the movie or on the wiki confirm anything about improved maneuverability. like i stated earlier, the biggest advancements in the 46 were the non-lethal armaments used to subdue cap. that and a fully collapsible helmet

I kinda miss the idea of Tony having the power source in his body at all times. It's similar to what makes the very early Stan Lee written issues of Iron Man so great, because it makes him vulnerable and he has to balance out his potential as a hero with the fact that going overboard is gonna extinguish the thing that keeps him alive.

The main suits that tony uses have an actual suit.

RDJ just doesnt wear all of it at once, especially if he needs to move about alot. Theres some scenes where he wears the full suit so as to reduce rendering time.

>>14204758

If anything, the Civil War suit was even slower having failed to catch up to the Quinjet or intercept a falling War Machine.

The only unique thing about it was how it was made up of very small components that wrapped itself around the wearer instead of the usual remote controlled bulky armor pieces and modules.

THIS JUST IN: people tend to get overly emotional and extremely irrational when it comes to traumatizing family grievances. Truly a shocking new development.

It doesn't really excuse Tony, no. But he's proven himself as an irrational and impulsive thinker countless times before. His reaction made sense to me, especially since he probably would have been commended by the UN for taking care of the Winter Soldier anyway.

>>14205262

Yea, I don't really get the complaint either. Tony was willing to reconsider the whole Winter Soldier thing initially - it was why he went to the base in the first place. It was only the parental revelation that turned him, because he was operating purely on emotion and says as much when Steve points out that he was being controlled. He didn't care that he was controlled, Bucky killed his mom, and that was the important thing, the only thing really, to him in that moment.

When he does get the chance in the fight, he doesn't kill Bucky, just disarms him (and then knock him out), because he needed to work out that anger.

The Rhodey thing was similar, because his best friend had just been in a major accident so he wasn't thinking rationally.

Maybe its design could get used in Infinity War. But probably not.

I also wonder why the fuck neither Tony nor Rhodey's suits had some sorta backup power other than the big glowey bit in the middle.

BOTH of them get fucked over by this in this movie, Rhodey gets it blasted out by Vision and then has literally NOTHING, he's just completely dead in the air. Then later Rogers disables Stark just by hitting him in the chest with his metal frisbee, and that's enough to disable at least all the offensive systems in the armor. Although apparently Tony was smart enough to build it so that it can be moved without power, without turning it coffin.

So are we going to ignore the fact that Steve carelessly exploited the loyalty of his comrades to save a man who was innocent (and then, only kinda) and still very dangerous? Now Clint and Scott are separated from their families, Wanda is farther away from being at peace with herself than ever, and Sam is a wanted fugitive (though I guess he didn't have much to lose anyway.) Cap was no angel, either. Even Evans pointed out that Steve in Civil War is acting somewhat selfish based on his emotional attachments, and the Avengers suffered for it far more than for anything Stark did.

I actually kind of got disappointed than everyone was so adamant about Clint's rant at Stark being a "sick burn." Stark was entirely right that Clint should have thought about his family before he broke the law, and Clint just sounded like a defiant child. That's not subjective, either; sure, the law sucks, but Clint knew EXACTLY what he was getting into and fucked off to play bows and arrows with Cap. Stark's not at fault for that. If anything, Stark's the reason Clint wasn't gunned down by GSG 9 and JSOC forces.

Even then, Stark's house arrest of Wanda was more so that she wouldn't have to suffer through what the people in charge wanted to do to her (which we see in the Raft.) It was a dick move, but what was the alternative? "Wanda, the world thinks you're a dangerous monster with little self-restraint, I'm gonna have to ask you to stay at home." At least with Stark calling the shots on that, she had Vision trying to make her comfortable, albeit dishonestly.

Only thing I can really fault Stark for is letting his guilt turn him into kind of a bitch, but given how much stress he was under, I can totally buy him cracking when seeing the brutal murder of his parents, and realizing Steve knew that their deaths weren't an accident.

>>14205796
And yet these modular suits clearly have power sources for every individual component, we see tony using repulsors with only a gauntlet on for example, and they can fly on their own.

I'm impressed Tony held his own against both Cap and Buck, honestly.

>>14205233
I personally think it was pretty in-character for him to snap right there upon knowing that Bucky killed his parents.
Considering that he has a history of PTSD, his impulsive personality, his guilt from the innocent deaths and the stress from having to keep what remains of the team together, then he got some evidence, hey, maybe Steve is right and he should help him, and so he does.
Suddenly, he is told this guy Steve has been protecting all along killed his parents, and Steve knew it the whole time and did not tell him. Tony, in his talk with the students, mentioned that he had problems with his parents that he ultimately wasn't able to deal with because they were dead.

The MCU take on the Bleeding Edge was nice, but the comic version is still tops. Mainly because it's super-streamlined, but it gets to be since this armor is contained in Stark's bones as opposed to being something he wears in the MCU.

Adi granov is pretty much the guy to define the modern IM armor at any rate.

>>14206804
But doesn't the Bleeding Edge actually like use nano-machines to morph and adapt into whatever Tony needs it to be? Like he can just turn his arms into big cannons or give himself big stompy boots or whatever at will just by thinking about it?

I don't know, I don't read the comics, but I think I've seen something like that. Or was that a different armor?

Either way, a nano-machine bullshit armor would be cool to see in the MCU.

>>14205381
Fun fact; the artist for that isn't Liefeld. It was another guy who wanted to make an Eva reference. There was a small interview about it in Wizard magazine.

IM3 should've really cut the number of suits down to 30 or so. There's a ton of crap in the middle between VII and 42 that just feels redundant. 42 almost feels like an arbitrary reference.

>>14206459
I guess that gauntlet was different.

And maybe Rhodey's suit didn't have the independent parts, but it should at least maybe have some kinda parachute and emergency CAST OFF procedure then given how likely he is to be flying during a COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER.

>>14207519
Is War Machine suit is still the same one they use in IM3 (Iron Patriot)? Or Tony had it upgraded too in AoU.

>>14207548
I think this model is a new one, specifically made for non-lethal purposes, same as the suit Stark has that also doesn't have the same full powered repulsors.

I think before that the suit he was using was the same as the one Stark had given to him in the prequel comic to IM3, because he wanted the modded MKII unit back.

The War Machine Mk2 seen in AOU is just a repainted Iron Patriot because Whedon didn't feel like upgrading Rhodey for a bit part in his movie. The Mk3 is a return to a tankier, bulkier, more weaponized frame. Couldn't find an image of all three suits together, but here's the first two.

God damn the MkI is sexy. I'd love a War Machine stand alone film that had that kind of bulk in the suit, especially if it's set post Civil War and has Rhodey dealing with his disability.

Is the Mark 7 still the most powerful suit outside of the Hulkbuster?

Every model after it has been inferior in terms of sheer firepower and durability.

>>14207822

Nah, Mark VII just had the most missiles and (supposedly) F90-style option packs, if the IM3 Artbook is to be believed. Mark XLV had far more powerful repulsors and quadruple lasers, and if the Artbook is to be believed, it seems like it might also has a decent missile complement that was just never used in the film.

>>14207854

The Mk VII has at least proven itself against an alien invasion where it took out a few Leviathans and numerous Chitauri soldiers all the while surviving an impressive amount of punishment.

Specific models may surpass it in some specific feature but they all have a tendency to be less damage resistant than the Mk VII.

>>14208325
Oh wait the 45 was the AoU suit, I can't keep this shit straight anymore. It seems silly though that he would make a vibranium suit and then his next model would be weak as hell for no discernible reason.

I really loved the concept of HyperVelocity. The suit wasn't extremely good looking, but literally copying his consciousness into the armor was amazing.

>>14208325

I'm not sure I'd call any if it easy. Both Cap and Bucky are full on superhuman in the movies and I don't think Bucky damages the armor at all. Cap knocks out part of its flight capability, is threatening the suits integrity with a load of punches (but doesn't actually do any real damage) and takes out the reactor with a shield bash using a vibranium shield. All of which tires the shit out if him and leaves him on his last legs. I don't think it even takes any other damage in the movie. Even War Machine is only properly damaged by a blast from Vision.

>>14208127

>>14208347
Well, didn't he throw it together in a day and a half?

>>14207073
There was a storyline called 5 Nightmares that had him using a bunch of suits all around the world, I thought it was kind of a cool callback to that even if it was Jarvis piloting them and not Tony.

>>14208347
Well isn't Cap's shield stronger than simply vibranium? And can't vibranium damage vibranium? Bucky's arm and Cap's shield were likely doing most of the damage in that fight.

Honestly, the movies never actually said anything about Tony's suits having vibranium components. I'm not going to trust the wiki unless the movies themselves make it frank, because that's kind of hard to believe.

Plus, it was probably a weaker model fire-power wise because he built it to be largely non-lethal so as not to actually kill anyone on Cap's side.

>>14208685
Bucky's arm definitely isn't vibranium though

Cap's shield is 'True Adamantium' in the comics, but in the MCU, it's straight vibranium. It's why Black Panther's claws left marks.

Cap's shield is actually vibranium alloy that was made by accident. Adamantium is an inferior material that was a byproduct of trying to recreate vibranium alloy.

>>14208312

It's not. Also wearing a suit made up entirely of Vibranium is a terrible idea in the first place because it can overload and explode if it drains off too much kinetic energy and the kinetic absorbtion can backfire (remember how Thor hitting Cap's shield makes a shockwave? Now picture that but it can't be aimed.).

There's a reason Panther just has a weave of it. Just enough to resist impacts but not enough to cause backfiring problems.

So how 'bout that new Ant Man suit huh? Or is it not /m/ enough for you guys? Have to say I like the old helmet a lot better, the way the jaw-line was hinged to headpiece and opened up made it feel like an old diving helmet or a motorcycle helmet. Felt very retro 60s, the way the whole face plate just pops off on the new one doesn't do it for me. The new highlights and panels look good though.

>>14212976

I thought Falcon, his wings and Redwing drone were the best tech in the film personally. Ant Man didn't do much for me, and without a side by side comparison I probably wouldn't notice a difference in the suits. His film was good though.

Tony was fighting Cap and Bucky for most of the fight, and both of them are superhuman in the films. Not on Thor's level, but definitely superhuman. And Tony isn't really on Thor's level either, not unless he has a hand from Veronica at least. Even then, he won more because he over powered Hulk quickly than because he was stronger, which probably wouldn't work on Thor.

Also, while Tony was fine during the fight, Cap was definitely tired by the end, and Tony had analyzed his fighting style and found his patterns. Cap managed to damage the main reactor and end it, but it was definitely an uphill battle for him that relied on Bucky being there to help him for much of it, and Tony would was more comfortable for most of it.

Speaking of stealth suits, the recent stealth suit Rhodey had in the comics deserved a longer run.

So is the general thought about the latest armors is that the later armors sacrifice durability for ease of use? As in they are A LOT easier easier to put on and off (no giant robotic arms helping put them on), but are more fragile.

Like if anyone remembers the 1st and 2nd iron man movies, the chest piece for iron man was one huge metal slab. But in the later films it's broken into several pieces that wrap around Tony's chest. More pieces = more points of failure. This all came to a climax in the 3rd iron man when the mk42 was always falling apart from every little unexpected bump; even comically.

Do you guys think this was smart of Tony to make his suits more fragile? Should he go back to his roots? It took Thor to rip off the helmet of an unpowered iron man mk 7 in the avengers.

But now its possible Captain America can do it with his bare hands. I think the Iron Man armor should go back to the days of when it had a lot of "heft" and was a lot more rigid.

>>14218722
>Do you guys think this was smart of Tony to make his suits more fragile?
I think it boils down to your personal preference: Do you roll DEF or DEX? It can be argued that if you make the suits fast enough and the radars perceptive enough, you won't take any damage at all. Tony has always been about showboating and pushing the limits, he'd rather outspeed and outmaneuver everything rather than strap on a big clunky thing that can take a lot of punishment. Unless he has to, i.e. Igor or Veronica.

>It took Thor to rip off the helmet of an unpowered iron man mk 7 in the avengers. But now its possible Captain America can do it with his bare hands.
In Cap's defense, he was trying really hard to put Tony down, he had Bucky helping for a lot of the fight, and most importantly, MCU Cap is much closer to superhuman than peak human. The guy grounded a helicopter with just his biceps and a little leverage. Thor could do the same, but I don't think he could do 3 or 5 helicopters at the same time.

>I think the Iron Man armor should go back to the days of when it had a lot of "heft" and was a lot more rigid.
The Mark 3 struck what could be considered the perfect balance between structural integrity and flight capability. Ever since then, he's pushed and pushed and now he makes suits stratified toward either end, either they take a beating or they go fast. Tony+Friday are smart enough to know what each situation calls for, so I say he continue to make purpose built, situational armors.

It could be argued that Tony should have rolled up to Cap and Bucky with several remote control armors. He did it Iron Man 3. Why bother with one armor when you can control 6 remotely.

>>14218839
Writer reason: Because he may not have any extra suits. He's been an active duty non-combatant for a while, no reason to continue developing weaponized mech suits.

Producer reason: Because they don't have the CGI budget to do that.

Director reason: Because it makes the fight much less personal. It's no longer a 2 on 1 fight with one set of reunited friends against a former friend, it's 2 guys against 1 guy and 5 robots.

Mark IV is the best, even now.

Man I remember this suit. WARMACHINE chucked a giant 50 pound metal barbell like at Tony's helmet from behind, and it bounced off. Tony didn't even look bothered.

Yet Captain America "tried really hard" with his shield and was able to bust open the helmet. Yet War Machine couldn't do it.

Vibranium, nigga. Do you even into fictional alloys?

>>14218868

To be fair, Iron Man did break vibranium in Age of Ultron. Wanda shattered it too.

it's been a while so you'll have to refresh my memory

i know wanda pulled ultron's heart out through a vibranium chest cavity, but that's chaos magic, it's almost cheating.

when did tony?

Tony, Thor, and, Vision all unloaded into him at once and it did seem to do some damage.

I found Age of Ultron to be complete shit but goddamn, I won't lie that Hulkbuster scene had me pumped.

Ultron did get boom roasted by the Tri-Beam, but I would rate Tony's repulsors much lower than actual lightning and an Infinity Stone. That scene rocked, as did the slow motion "protect the thingie in the middle" and the slow motion "pose for the cover art in the snow" bit

Shout outs to Joss Whedon for assassinating the characters with his shit writing but having 2 or 3 good visual ideas.

>>14219372
Cosmic Cube based Repulsor tech + Asgardian Magic Lighting + Mind Gem Laser Beams > Vibranium.

They're flight stabilizers that run on arc reactor energy. Are you saying Howard Stark was influenced by the Tesseract to make an arc reactor?

>>14219456
That's what Iron Man 2 seems to suggest.

>video
still the best iron man fight by far. i dunno why, but i love watching people fight when they do it "because they can", and not because they "have to fight".

Cap's strong enough to kick the front end of a pickup truck a couple yards with a simple stationary kick. He's far more powerful than a thrown 30lb barbell, and he's viciously smashing Stark's helmet over and over again with a 30lb fucks with kinetic energy. I'm actually adamant that Mark 46 is the most durable the suits have ever been; that thing took hits from a very, very determined Captain America and only suffered minor malfunctions throughout the battle.

Truth be told, I'm not even sure that the suits are less durable in the slightest. Mark 43 took on a full barage from Ultron's lasers and was merely scratched.

OP here. This thread's on the way out due to bump limit, do you think there's enough discussion left to warrant a new thread? Or should this be a one and done. I've lurked /m/ a little and haven't seen many Iron Man threads.

>>14219119

Iron Man and Thor destroyed Ultron's vibranium machine inside the Sokovia asteroid.

>>14220254

>He's far more powerful than a thrown 30lb barbell

Bruh do you even lift? That's a FIFTY pound (stop rounding down) barbell thrown HARD by another IRON MAN (war machine) SUIT to the back of Tony's Iron Man helmet. It would damn near cleave a regular man in half. War Machine's arm strength >>>>>> Captain America's arm strength.

The only reason I'm giving the helmet busting scene a pass is cuz Vibranium is damn near magical in Marvel. Captain America couldn't do it without it. Plus it's a Cap Movie. Gotta give Captain America the spotlight.

>Truth be told, I'm not even sure that the suits are less durable in the slightest.

Do you even mk 42? That was a tin can. It ain't standin' up to no tank round like from the first movie.

*mic drop*

Clearly Marvel has nerfed their movie toyota pickup trucks compared to their real life counterparts.

>>14220340
nobody is questioning the 42's fragility. that's almost it's calling card at this point.

but they guy you're talking to specifically referenced the 43 and how little ultron's laser attacks do to it. both the 43 and the 7 have stood up to huge battles where tony has taken tons of enemy fire from weapons comparable to tank rounds and yet he's never had a suit rupture.

Mark 45, too.

Even Mark 42 didn't seem fragile so much as the programming involved was still in the beta testing stages, and was having incredible difficulty keeping so many separate, complex parts together while remaining articulate and functional. The suit arguably has taken more punishment than any MCU suit yet and it still manages to put itself back together multiple times.

And if it was Captain America repeatedly smashing the faceplate over and over again after having wailed on the entire suit for several minutes, I guarantee the suit would break.

This isn't 616 where the armor can take a mono-molecular chainsaw or even a nuclear explosion at ground zero and ignore it so Tony can engage in banter with his teammates; the MCU does try to maintain a level of believability.

>>14220424
i just noticed something: the 42 has never fallen apart with someone inside it.when a helicopter rolled up to stark's house and blew it the fuck up, star survived an entire mansion falling on him and had enough auxiliary power to fly from california to fucking tennessee. it's only ever collapsed when jarvis was controlling all of its component parts.

this could be because of the lethal implications of tony getting splattered by a big rig, but it's never failed him when he was wearing it.
