Hasta La Gadget!

A few months ago Mike McCooey wowed the Web with his poseable LEGO Spider-Man. Now he’s back with another poseable LEGO superhero, and with your support, perhaps LEGO can make it an official product. It’s an amazing build of Tony Stark in his Iron Man Mark VII armor.

Mike says that while his Iron Man figure is not as poseable as his Spidey figure, it still has over 50 points of articulation. It also has six independent light bricks: one in his head, chest, one on each head and one on each foot. Iron Man may be more fragile in his bricky suit, but he’s still packing heat. He has wrist-mounted lasers, thigh- and shoulder-mounted missiles and more.

You really should check out Mike’s Flickr page to see the details on this figure. Mike has also setup a LEGO Cuusoo campaign. You know how that works: if his campaign gets 10,000 votes, LEGO will think about making it official. Otherwise LEGO’s not even gonna think about thinking about it.

Tony Stark is only as tough as he is because of his Iron Man armor. That’s why it’s made out of space age material, not glass. If you want to see the Iron Man armor made from glass, here it is. Sneeze wrong and it all shatters like Tony Stark’s sobriety.

This piece of glass shows off Iron Man’s armor in amazing detail. Seeing the light hit the armor just makes Iron man seem… holy somehow. This amazing piece of stained glass art comes from artist R. Evan Daniels of Martian Glass Works, who says that it’s the most complicated work he’s created yet.

It has 334 pieces of glass and took over 100 hours to build. It measures 9.5 square feet, so he will need to build a special crate just to ship it to you. That is, if you have the $4,500(USD) necessary to bring it home. Tony Stark should be able to afford that with no problem.

No, it isn’t the plot for the next Indiana Jones movie: According to a research paper published on the journal Meteoritics & Planetary Science, scientists have discovered that an Iron Man sculpture found by a Nazi expedition in Tibet is of extraterrestrial origin. More »

Remember Evan Bacon, the kid who built the life-size Batman LEGO? Well the now 14-year-old LEGO fanatic is back with another sizeable superhero creation. This time, Evan crossed over from the DC Comics to the Marvel universe, creating a life-size model of Iron Man, entirely from LEGO bricks.

Evan says the 6-foot-tall model is comprised of about 18,000 individual LEGO bricks. Iron Man’s eyes, arc reactor and palm even light up. The sculpture was on display at the recent Brick Fiesta 2012 in Austin, TX.

All told, the model weighs in at about 80 pounds, and won the People’s Choice Award at Brick Fiesta. Great job, Evan! I can only hope you’re planning on building all of the Avengers and Justice League over time. Of course, you might just go broke buying LEGO bricks.

If you see a woman carrying around this custom arc reactor bag, you are either seeing a female Iron Man or else Tony Stark is taking to cross-dressing at night. Hopefully, it is the former. I’d hate to see the latter in a movie. Or anywhere else. This sweet purse is perfect for the geek girl who wants to be named Toni Stark.

This sleek Iron Man purse will carry all of your stuff. Your lipstick, compact, and other lady essentials. That’s a given. But this purse has it’s own Arc reactor that lights up with EL wire technology. Not ELO technology. Though they make some sweet music.

The bag was made by TheGoddess908 who obviously loves her some Iron Man. Fantastic job Goddess.
