Iron Man's Mark 42 Armour is a minifigure based on one of the many suits constructed and used by Tony Stark.
Description[edit | edit source]
The helmet is the same as the other variant, but the mask is a lighter shade of gold. The head piece used is a plain white piece. This suit of armour has a dark red body, except for the hands which are gold. Its torso is printed with the arc reactor, dark gold plating on most of the torso, with some silver also on it. There is back printing depicting the back plating in gold, silver and red. The printing continues on to the legs with printing on the hips to depict the hip armour, the legs have the knee pads which are mostly gold with silver in them. The toe depict part of the boots. It comes with two studs and cylinders for repulsors and jets respectively, like every variant of Iron Man.
Background[edit | edit source]
The Mark 42 was a suit built by Tony Stark after he nearly died at the battle of New York City and designed so Tony could mentally summon the armour piece by piece anywhere and at anytime, as he never wanted in danger without a suit nearby.
One night, Tony had a nightmare, the armour "came to the rescue" hovering over, it woke Pepper Potts woke by screaming which Tony dismantled.
During Savin's attack on Stark's mansion, Pepper donned the armour upon Stark's orders to get herself and Maya Hansen out. Once they were safely out, Tony called the armour back to himself but failed to stop the attack.
Tony later called the Mark 42 to help him escape The Mandarin's mansion. He then remotely controlled the armour to save the passengers on Air Force One and stop Savin's abduction of President Matthew Ellis.
J.A.R.V.I.S. sent the armour to Tony as part of the House Party protocol, ordering the Mark 42 to suit up on Aldrich Killian and activated the self destruct sequence, wounding Killian.
Notes[edit | edit source]
