You know what’s the craziest thing we see this week? Nope. Not the 2016 Presidential Election. This. A video of a life-size Iron Man Mark 43 suit that opens up in a way like it did in the movie. Seriously, it does that and apparently, this is a real-deal and not some CGI bullshit used in the movies. And also, it appeared to be officially licensed by Marvel. Called Iron Man Mark XLIII Movable Armor Version, this movie-accurate replica of the Iron Man suit was made by Shenzhen-based toy maker, The Toys Asia, and it boasts incredible details as you can see in the video below.
Ok, maybe the video did dramatized the entire motorized action a little with all the sound effects and crazy camera angles, but it sure has all the details and we are not talking about your usual skin-deep details you find on 1:1 statues or whatever scale action figures; these details also exist inside the armor which you can observe as the various parts open up. It is nothing less than mind-blowing, really. Apparently, this masterpiece costs a whopping $35,000 and it is said that it will only be made if it has 100 orders. Strange that this piece of information came up cos’ no where on The Toys Asia did it feature this thing, much less having a page to order anything at all.
And also, it is not wearable but having a ‘functioning’ suit as display is as close as you can get to being the real Tony Stark and oh, check your bank balance too cos’ after all, you will need to be a genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist, don’t you?
