Sounds interesting. I wonder what will be changed in the final version.

 

Neato. Still want to watch it.

 

What's the "RT"?

 

Definite watch. Anymore Avengers stuff added in there?

 

Repulsor Tech?

 

I knew Ivan was gonna end up building another suit of armor.

Question, though: is it another simple armor like the Whiplash set we've seen so far? Or is it more of a full suit, like Iron Man and War Machine?

 

um guys? isn't it common sense that the armor he made was THE CRIMSON DYNAMO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

That does make perfect sense, but the lack of merchandise for a "Movie Crimson Dynamo" or anything similar leads me to believe it'll look completely different from any previous Dynamos.

 

I ain't reading this stuff, don't wanna spoil the movie.

 

comic series crimson dynamo? and maybe they are trying to keep things hush hush right now

 

then why did you come into the thread?

 

Sounds like it will be a good movie.

 

Yes, comic series. Not movie. I agree that they may just be keeping mum for the moment. However, I did see an Iron Man 2 minimate that looked similar to the Tactical Drones but had a helmet head, meaning it was manned armor, and it had big gauntlets that looked like they could project whips.

Just saying.

 

I saw a crimson dynamo toy at wally world ,from the Ironman 2 movie line, a week or so ago. Needless to say "I'z xcited!"

 

To say I wasn't gonna read the stuff  .

 

This is what I was talking about. The silver suit to the right of Iron Man.
