Hasta La Gadget!

Don’t tell Mandarin, but Tony Stark relocated his Hall of Armors to Disneyland’s Innoventions area in Tommorowland for the meantime. But being the carefree dude that he is, Tony is actually letting people into the exhibit. Either that or the security at Disneyland is a lot tougher than I thought.

As you walk through the room, Tony’s virtual butler JARVIS will tell you all about the various armors, including the Mk. XLII that will be featured in the upcoming Iron Man 3. Speaking of armors, you’ll also be able to put on one of his suits through an augmented reality interface. Here’s a brief tour of the exhibit taken by YouTuber mrdaps:

Again, the exhibit will only be up for a limited time, so visit the park ASAP before Tony decides to hide his armor somewhere else.

Comic book geeks are perhaps the single greatest consumer of themed flash drives. If you’re a fan of Iron Man and are looking forward to the third movie in the franchise hitting theaters this summer, it may be time to you to start stocking up on some collectible flash drives. Three Iron Man 3 flash drives are coming out just in time for the blockbuster flick to arrive.

I happen to think the coolest of the three is Iron Man’s Repulsor hand. When the flash drive is plugged into the USB port, the light in the center of the hand that Iron Man uses as a weapon glows blue. Another cool drive in the trio looks like Tony Stark’s Arc Reactor, complete with a little animated light show when plugged in:

The third branded flash drive looks like the red, white and blue Iron Patriot head. All of the flash drives have retractable USB ports and are available with 8 GB or 16 GB of storage. While I haven’t found them in the U.S. yet, you can pre-order the Arc Reactor and the Repulsor Hand over at Australia’s Mighty Ape now.

If you haven’t tried on some Nike LeBron X, then you’re missing out on some super-comfortable shoes. That being said, if you’re looking for something unique, and Nike ID doesn’t do it for you, check out these customs. They are quite amazing.

The Nike LeBron X Jaded Hulk custom sneaker uses a “Cutting Jade” colorway as its base. From there on, sneaker customizer Chef from GourmetKickz included Bruce Banner’s torn garments and a gradient on the side panels and midsole. A purple tongue with custom insoles complete the look.

The Jaded Hulk customs don’t come cheap. You’ll have to pay $700(USD) and wait approximately 5 to 6 months for your sneakers. I’m sure that S.H.I.E.L.D. can afford to buy you a pair.

For the first time in my many years, I’ve started to grow a little bit of a beard. But it’s more of a Miami Vice, Don Johnson five-o-clock shadow thing than a real, manly beard. On the other hand, this guy has this facial hair thing nailed…

Chad Roberts took home both the Best-in-Show and Freaky Funky Free Style award at the 2nd Annual Garden State Beard & ‘Stache Competition (yes, there is such a thing) vanquishing his many hairy foes with the ultimate Spider-Man beard.

I wonder if he had to spin some webs of various sizes to hold that thing in place like that.

Forget traditional circuses. That is so last century. What we need is a traveling show full of comic book legends. Well ask, and ye shall receive – Marvel has teamed up with Feld Entertainment to give us just that.

The two are making a $10 million investment into this idea. Feld has a lot of experience in this area. They have already produced Disney On Ice and Ringling Bros. So they know what they are doing when it comes to stuff under the Big Top. Really, how can you lose when you throw Superheroes into the mix?

The possibilities are endless here too. Think about how much mythology they have to work with. Maybe we will see classic storylines played out. Then again, maybe we will see the Hulk swinging from a trapeze, and Captain America with a clown nose. I hope not – I think this could be a great idea if done right.
