New IRON MAN 3 ‘Mark XLVII’ Promo Art Revealed

Even though we've had a decent look at the armor, said to be Tony Stark's Mark 47 suit in Iron Man 3, it's now featured in a few pieces of new promotional art! Check it out after the jump!

Some time next month, wider promotional efforts can be expected for Iron Man 3, which is the beginning of Marvel's Phase 2 slate and first outing post-The Avengers box office behemoth. And while that marketing may kickoff with still photos and a trailer coinciding, until then, promo art may be all we have to look forward to. And featuring what's reportedly Tony Stark's Mark XLVII armor, for which spoilerific details surfaced last week, I've now stumbled across new promo art for the anticipated Robert Downey Jr. starrer.










Described as a “technological crisis thriller,” set in the world of international war, arms & terror, Marvel Studios' “Iron Man 3” stars Robert Downey Jr., Gwyneth Paltrow, Don Cheadle, Guy Pearce, Rebecca Hall, Dale Dickey, Ashley Hamilton, James Badge Dale, with Sir Ben Kingsley and Jon Favreau. Shane Black (“Kiss Kiss Bang Bang”) takes over directorial duties from Jon Favreau, who helmed the first two “Iron Man” films. Principal photography will occur primarily in North Carolina and China. And “Iron Man 3” is set for release in May 3, 2013.

Good shit Fresh, you don't mind me calling you that do you?
Jolt17 - 9/9/2012, 1:07 AM
Well, it has definitely grown on me - even the dominant yellow segments bother me no more! Looking awesome.
Jollem - 9/9/2012, 1:08 AM

@DcMarvelFreshman

Cool just checking


@Sagemode

it does look odd looking back at that comment.
Jollem - 9/9/2012, 1:30 AM
@AMAZINGstudiosUS - yes they do. so do other production companies/studios
KingEmperor - 9/9/2012, 1:40 AM
I's still not used to so much yellow, but maybe it'll look better on screen.
0ptimusCrime - 9/9/2012, 1:41 AM
Please release the sdcc footage! I want to see the suit in action
SuspenseSmith - 9/9/2012, 1:50 AM
Still questioning the suit... but Marvel hasn't had an epic fail so far.

Fingers crossed.
Jollem - 9/9/2012, 1:56 AM
the segmented faceplate looks like the faceplate from the mark 5. i wonder if that's because of statistical analysis from audiences?
JatevinM - 9/9/2012, 2:10 AM
I do want that on my phone ewwww
Batman27 - 9/9/2012, 2:12 AM
Im sure it will be awesome but the suit still looks like shit.
CapA - 9/9/2012, 2:16 AM
I've been trying to draw this armor and it's HELL !
IronManny819 - 9/9/2012, 2:24 AM
I've still not warmed up to the suit yet. It just looks....ugh.
Extremis - 9/9/2012, 2:38 AM
at first the armour looked shit.But with CGI, i think it will look badass.
BlackFlash - 9/9/2012, 3:01 AM
I love this armour I was getting a little sick and tired of all the red, the suites all started looking so similar there wasn't enough difference like there is in the comic, I think they should have pushed it a little more and went with the diamond shaped chest plat and then Joss could have made it round again for A2 :).
RedHood13 - 9/9/2012, 3:12 AM
I don't know why, but know it looks better to me
EarOne - 9/9/2012, 3:18 AM
rather than this new armor, Ben Kingsley's look as the Mandarin is the thing i'm most eager to see. really hope he won't look ridiculous.
bamboo06 - 9/9/2012, 4:10 AM
Super Bad Suit
Nomis1800 - 9/9/2012, 4:17 AM
The new suit is awesome!!! Love the gold.
mgeoff88 - 9/9/2012, 4:36 AM
I hope the suit looks that in the film.

My only complaint with the new armor is it doesn't look to have a gold chrome paint job like the previous Iron Man suits.
avengers72is24601 - 9/9/2012, 5:27 AM
that early banner is used here
marvelstudios - 9/9/2012, 5:45 AM
All of you people who are hating on the suit will bite your own tongues when you see the movie. Everyone complained about the Captain America suit in The Avengers; looked great in the movie.
YOUNGBL00D - 9/9/2012, 5:48 AM
@capA can u show us
marvel72 - 9/9/2012, 6:16 AM
armour looks fine to me.hate it all you want,it doesn't change how i feel about it.
OnLeatherWings - 9/9/2012, 6:33 AM
Still don't like the suit but I'll reserve final judgment for when I see it in action. Oh and btw people this is the promo art. Promo art always looks better then the real life stuff. Judging the suit on these pics is just pointless.

Marvelstudios @ caps suit in avengers was ok. Far from being great. It worked for most parts of the film and he had his helmet off half the time anyways. Those still shots are still bad. That said caps character was one of my favorites in the movie, just not his suit.
JonathaNisMagnuM - 9/9/2012, 6:39 AM
The suit looks great to me i don't mind that gold dominates the red in this one, he'll get more suits so they'll probably go back to the old fashioned color scheme. What bugs me is that the gold metal in the pic above isn't similar AT ALL to the Dijon Mustard looking gold we saw in the SDCC suit that was displayed
Photobucket
Seems like another thing where concept art is gonna be COMPLETELT DIFFERENT from what we get in the final film:Like Caps ears in his Avengers Costume: ARE THEY THERE OR ARE THEY NOT THERE?!? IMO both color schemes in his suit dont bug me, but i'd go w/ the more traditional gold in the concept art above!
TheAbomination - 9/9/2012, 6:41 AM
Trailer next month? Yes please!
thalidomide - 9/9/2012, 7:22 AM
TRAILER

NOW

PLEASE!!!!
SFCamerica - 9/9/2012, 7:25 AM
2 kinds of people really get me fired up, Democrats and Trolls, can't stand you people.
nordberg - 9/9/2012, 7:54 AM
As I understand it, it's a Swiss [frick]ing watch.

2 kinds of people piss me off: people who bring politics into threads that have nothing to do with politics and I'll get back to you later on the 2nd kind.
DrainBamage - 9/9/2012, 8:10 AM
I thought Ben Kingsley was dead. °LOL°

I would've preferred a slightly younger Mandarin. But, we'll see how it pans out.
GUNSMITH - 9/9/2012, 8:18 AM
THE GOLD SUIT. YOU KNOW AT SOME POINT YOUR GONNA HAVE TO START NAMING SUITS CAUSE ALL THE ROMAN NUMERALS..SEEING THEM AS THE NUMBER GETS BIGGER IS JUST GONNA GET YOU CROSSEYED
l0rdleg0las - 9/9/2012, 8:50 AM
@Gunsmith

Not only will that number be huge, but realistically most people don't understand how to read roman numerals
JustDame - 9/9/2012, 8:54 AM
Love all of the gold. Looks really "fleshy"...probably tryna make the armor look more a part of him.
THEDARKKNIGHT1939 - 9/9/2012, 9:02 AM
The promotional art looks better than the real suit. It is actually gold.
thewolfx - 9/9/2012, 9:05 AM
@SFCamerica

anyways i like this suit , it is growing on me aswell but id still rather have a true extemis suit .
mrteaspoon - 9/9/2012, 9:13 AM
Robert Downey Jr. 'starrer'? OK.
Fogs - 9/9/2012, 9:30 AM
Suit is growing on me. I understant it has to stand out of the previous anyway.
DioFoRio - 9/9/2012, 9:33 AM
Nordberg speaks the truth. Somebody leak a pic of the damn Mandarin already.
