Movie Armor Based on Cap's Shield part 2

So, thanks from a tip at scans_daily in a post about how a frozen-Cap appearance was cut from The Incredible Hulk, we can more or less confirm what was presented in the Wal-Mart exclusive comic that came with the movie: The Movie Armor was based off an alloy used for an early version of Captain America's shield:



Under Tony's right arm on his work bench is, in fact, the shield. So, fangirl away.

  1. Huh? WTF, you shold know Cap's Shield is made out of Vacandan Vibranium. Tony probably just thought about making a collapsible Shield for himself, but dropped the idea. Would have made him look like a Knight though.

  2. Actually it's a vibranium/adamantium alloy, making it invulnerable to anything short of magic or stupidly potent (i.e. Infinity Gauntlet level) cosmic powers. IIRC, the guy who created it fell asleep during the alloying process, explaining why it has never been replicated.
