AVENGERS: ENDGAME - Hot Toys Rescue Figure Reveals A Detailed Look At The Hero's Badass Armor And Weapons

Avengers: Endgame finally brought Rescue to the big screen and now a new Hot Toys action figure has revealed a detailed look at Pepper Potts' new armour and the weapons she unleashed on Thanos' army...

Avengers: Endgame once again put the spotlight on Tony Stark's (Robert Downey Jr.) relationship with Pepper Potts (Gwyneth Paltrow) as we learned that they had got married in the five years that passed thanks to the movie's time-jump and had a daughter called Morgan. 

It was during the scenes set at Iron Man's home that we learned he had built Pepper her own armour and she got to wear that during the movie's final battle against Thanos. 

Her screentime was fairly limited but it's fair to say the hero looks badass in action and it's just a shame that Paltrow has indicated in the past that she's also going to be moving on from the MCU now. However, I'm sure Morgan could factor into things somewhere down the line (and you have to believe Kevin Feige probably plans that far ahead). 

Now, Hot Toys has unveiled a highly detailed action figure based on the character's likeness and this reveals a lot of very cool, unexpected details. So, to check it out, all you guys have to do is click on the "View List" button below!

This pose obviously recreates the moment Pepper arrived on the battlefield and if you look closely at her arm, you'll notice the "Stark Industries" logo. What happens to that in Tony's absence?

We know from Spider-Man: Homecoming that Avengers Tower has a new owner but that's unlikely to have any sort of impact on Stark Industries...well, unless it's someone looking to fill the void his death has left in terms of developing new weapons and technology. Who could that possibly be?

Well, the prevailing theory is that Norman Osborn is the new owner of Avengers Tower and that Marvel Studios is planning to introduce the Green Goblin and Oscorp into Spider-Man's world.

I'm sure Pepper Potts might have something to say about that but it appears as if the focus is instead being put on Happy Hogan as he teams up with the wall-crawler on his next international adventure.

Wearing the Rescue Suit designed by Tony Stark, Pepper Potts joined the Earth Mightiest Heroes in the final battle against Thanos and his army in Avengers: Endgame and proved herself a hero.

Originally working as Tony Stark’s personal assistant, Pepper brought balance and order to Tony’s messy daily life, and subsequently became his love interest. Now, the wife of the hero will strive to protect world order in her own sophisticated suit of armors and the two of them are shown teaming up.

Beautifully designed with gorgeous detailing, the highly-accurate figure is crafted based on Gwyneth Paltrow’s big screen appearance as Pepper Potts/Rescue from the Marvel movie.

Featuring two interchangeable head sculpts including a newly painted head sculpt with removable mask and an interchangeable helmeted head with LED-light up function, skillfully applied metallic lavender blue, champagne gold and silver colored armor, LED lights shine through various areas of armor, iconic weapons including a long drone and a short drone to recreate the final batle.

You'll be able to pose Rescue alongside Iron Man and The Avengers with multiple pairs of interchangeable hands for different gestures, and a very cool, dynamic themed figure stand.

"Pepper and I have taken a very similar parallel journey in a lot of ways," Paltrow says of her time playing the character. "In the first ‘Iron Man,’ she was in a much different place in her life. She really came into her own as a leader throughout the course of the films. In some ways, I caught up to her, and in some ways, she caught up to me. I hold Pepper very close to my heart."

"She’s certainly the longest character that has been in my life for over ten years," the actress concludes. "I think she’s an incredible person. I really actually have a lot of love for Pepper."

"I think one of the things that’s most endearing about it is how their relationship has evolved through the films and through the years," says co-director Anthony Russo, referring to Pepper and Tony. "They’ve gone through an incredible journey together, both individually and as romantic partners."

"Seeing them grow and change over the years is the most thrilling thing for audiences to watch. It’s very rare that audiences get to see on the big screen characters go through that kind of life arc with one another," he adds. "From the opportunity of meeting, to working through the complexities of their relationship, to where we’re going in ‘Endgame.’ It’s an incredible life arc that we’re tracking with these two characters." It's just a shame that ended in tragedy.

"Robert is my co-star, both whether we’re on set together or off," says Paltrow of her relationship with her on-screen husband. "He is so surprising, and you never know what he’s going to do. He makes the day really fun and very dynamic. He’s just incredible to work with."

"I was thinking back to the first ‘Iron Man’ movie where we did a lot of improvising. He did the whole thing basically on the spot. He really taught me a lot about improvisation. He’s so unique and so brilliant. And to work with him really keeps you on your toes and keeps the creative spirit alive."

As for Robert Downey Jr.'s thoughts on their partnership, he adds: "Gwyneth is obviously a national treasure as an actress. She has done her version of Pepper that is something really industrious, smart, very cool and thoughtful. I know she is the queen of e-commerce now, but she really is the best side of Tony and makes the dynamic between them so relatable and humanized."

"They really lean upon that very special chemistry they have with one another in the way that they perform," co-director Joe Russo concludes. "It’s a very special tool to have when you’re trying to create meaningful stories for people. Robert and Gwyneth are just amazing actors, and they have that intangible quality that pops when you see them together on film."

Rescue certainly got to unleash some very cool weapons in Avengers: Endgame and they understandably bear a resemblance to what Iron Man used. However, her suit doesn't seem to be nano-tech.

Instead, it looks like a physical suit of armour which is enhanced by that technology so she can create the sort of weapons at will that should go a long way in slowing down the Mad Titan.

Something the movie doesn't reveal is who her A.I. is. Wouldn't it have been awesome if we'd learned it was Jocasta? (that was actually an Easter Egg in Joss Whedon's Avengers: Age of Ultron).

The fact we got to see these two side by side at least once in the MCU is very cool and that moment they're fighting alongside each other is bound to live on in GIF form forever. What a team-up!

I like to think Happy is at home with Tony’s kid just watching Desperate Housewives on an iPad during this fight.

I would love to see a ROM movie and they use the artistic team that did Ironman.

@blitzkreg - Agreed! That would be awesome!

@blitzkreg - me too, unfortunately I believe there is a rights issue because the toy manufacturer ultimately owns them :-(

@SpideyQuad - yeah, it's a Parker Brothers property. ROM and the Micronauts are two of my all-time favorites but ownership issues will likely keep them out of the MCU for the foreseeable future.

If you look closely at one of her like “wings” you can see the numbers 0049, meaning that this is the missing iron man armor mark 49!
mark 47- homecoming
mark 48- hulkbuster infinity war
mark 49- rescue suit
mark 50- infinity war suit

@MeAreLegend - Is the IW Hulkbuster the mark 48 though? I thought it was a repair of the original Veronica?

Are we not going to talk about the increasing amount of reports renamed to make them seem new? I don't know why this guy can write for this site but his laziness knows no bounds. Winding is garbage

@cfho83 - Countless have already complained for many, many, months, so their voices have been heard. But nothing changes.

Little easter egg, maybe... But the suit is the same color as the dress pepper used in IM1, same day tony fell in love

Nice!!! But I’ll gladly stay with the cheaper 6 inch Marvel Legends one that’s coming out which will be so much easier on my wallet.

So this a nanotech suit right, with all the extra stuff flying out and constructing. Why then, is the physical helmet lying around in the garage for Morgan to find?
hazapez
hazapez - 5/27/2019, 11:24 AM
@gulducati - it probably wasnt turned on ?
gulducati
gulducati - 5/27/2019, 12:15 PM
@hazapez - My point is that there is no physical helmet to leave lying around. When the nanotech armor is not in use, it's all in the housing unit affixed to the chest.
hazapez
hazapez - 5/31/2019, 8:10 AM
@gulducati - yeah but i think he said he was still building it. so maybe it is in rigid form until it is activated / complete ?

Does anyone else wonder why Tony bothered making armor for Pepper in the first place, or why she showed up in the final battle? Throwing her into a suit of armor and having her drop in and wreck house was, I suppose, fan service. Also, completely inconsistent with the character...

This is the exact same problem with the CW shows. Every character becomes a superhero/villain, regardless of how little sense it makes
