Take A Closer Look At 'Iron Man''s AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON "Bleeding Edge" Armor
Eagle eyed fans spotted Tony Stark wearing a new armour in the latest trailer for Avengers: Age of Ultron, and based on these detailed images of Tamashii Nations Bandai's upcoming Iron Man action figure, it definitely has quite a bit in common with the comic book "Bleeding Edge" suit.
Marvelous News has shared some scans of the S.H. Figuarts Avengers: Age of Ultron movie figures from Tamashii Nations Bandai, and as you can see, they give us a great look at Iron Man's new streamlined armour (presumably Mark 45) whcih he could be seen wearing in the third trailer for the sequel. Visually, it definitely appears as if this could be a stopgap between the suit inspired by the "Extremis" story arc and the Bleeding Edge suit Tony wore during Matt Fraction and Salvador Larroca's lengthy Invincible Iron Man run. Whether Iron Man will be wearing this or a Mark 46 armour in Captain America: Civil War remains to be seen! What do you guys think of this suit?
Marvel Studios presents Avengers: Age of Ultron, the epic follow-up to the biggest Super Hero movie of all time. When Tony Stark tries to jumpstart a dormant peacekeeping program, things go awry and Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, including Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, The Incredible Hulk, Black Widow and Hawkeye, are put to the ultimate test as the fate of the planet hangs in the balance. As the villainous Ultron emerges, it is up to The Avengers to stop him from enacting his terrible plans, and soon uneasy alliances and unexpected action pave the way for an epic and unique global adventure.
