I always loved the consistency with how the portable suits are often the least durable

[@CINEMAZE]

Yep, it’s an interesting trade off

[@nutdust-me8jg]

especially the mark 5, you could literally see how it was wayyy less durable

[@Doctor_Bamias]

Even if it's not the strongest suit,i always had a soft spot for Mark 42. I don't know why,i just always liked the more focus on the gold but keeping some red this suit had

[@CINEMAZE]

Yep I agree, it always stood out to me

[@tucrepap]

mark 42s gotta be my favorite suit as well. Felt like he explained it perfectly, it had its own personality (we saw it walking around more than any other suit) and the color scheme was so nice

[@oofman1911]

Every time i think of iron man it's the first time thing i visualize

[@madlad1741]

Mark 42 is the best

[@PrisMar_YT]

The reason they made Mark 47 have a huge grey patch is because that's where Steve Rogers destroyed it with the shield

[@CINEMAZE]

But it’s a completely new suit, he didn’t take the old one and fix it, each mark is a completely new suit. I think it’s more likely that it didn’t get finished being painted due to his civil war suit being destroyed too soon

The Mark 3 is my favorite and you took the words right out of my mouth. "tangibility." The nanotech was cool but I like how tactile Mark 3 was. I liked the noises it made and the clink sound when the helmet comes down

[@CINEMAZE]

Yeah they did a fantastic job of bringing it to real life, especially for the first time we ever saw it on screen. Thanks for watching

[@NaisanSama]

The purpose of it is what makes it a memorable suit too (which is to destroy the stark industry's missiles)

[@Matthew.Morcos]

Yeah it’s so weird how the most realistic suit by far is from 2008 CGI

[@Soundwave1900]

They could've made nanotech more tangible, too, if they'd put in actual effort. Like, if nanotech would first form distinct parts of the suit which are real props which then would strap themselves to the costume - aka have a real costume with cgi being a glue that keeps it together - instead of relying purely on cgi that has no ability to give the action any weight. But alas.

[@nef36]

They did practical suits in the first movie to save costs, I don't know whem they switched but later suits are CGI

[@Mitriscool]

I know most of these suits because as a kid I loved playing the Iron Man 3 mobile game Its sad that they discontinued it

Nice ranking of the Iron Man suits in my opinion. My personal favorites are the Mark 6, Mark 3, Mark 50, Mark 85, the silver and red suit Iron Man wears against Whiplash in the racing track scene in Iron Man 2 (I forgot what it's called), and the main suit Iron Man wears in Avengers: Age of Ultron (I also forgot what it's called).

[@s.tunafish]

"Another stealth suit and it does a Good job at hiding, because i really won't remember this one" 😂

[@baitreview]

I think the mk 42 is still my favorite by a long mile. Whenever Tony made a technological improvement, it seemed to just immediately work. We never got to see the quirks of developing a new technology like we did in the first movie. This is not even mentioning how dynamic the suit is. New tech is usually just showcased once, but effectively doesn't do anything. The MK 42 is used in ways that no other suits are. It's genuinely perfect

[@CINEMAZE]

Great reasons!

[@Thekingofcrab]

The prodigal son returns.

[@spadesofpaintstudios1719]

What’s crazy is if you look at a lot of the suits the mark 7 was a case for a lot of 20 and 30 series sets which really shows how much that suit actually did tech wise. Also if you look closer at the mark 4 and suits like the mark 47 you’ll notice that the only things different are the chest and paint arrangements, you’ll see it with the 43 as well; it’s kinda nice to see the slight improvements without making a whole new suit. Probably saved on production as well.

[@LukeKraus360]

I’m a sucker for the mark 2 always thought it looked so cool being silver and having the exposed rivets but being the first actual usable suit. Love it

[@CINEMAZE]

It does look so sleek

[@Themistocles30]

You know what I liked about the mark 2??? It had the iceing problem. That's what makes it so unique than the other suits.

[@davfree9732]

Fact is… we all wanted to see Pepper become Rescue instead of just popping up as Rescue. Origin stories are supposed to be the crucible of heroic intent going forward and Pepper deciding not to wait, or call Tony back but rather go to him would have been an important chapter in her life.

[@ignacioperez5479]

Yeah. We see the armor, but it comes out of nowhere. We never see her Even thinking about it in the movie. I loved watching both Tony and Pepper figthing together, but at least show us some scenes of she talking about how she is not happy with Tony about the armor, knowing that he no longer have to do it. And then, at the moment she appears in the armor it can goes like Tony: You told me You didnt like it Pepper: someone have to save your ass Tony: You have always saved My ass

[@CINEMAZE]

This perfectly sums up my issues with it. Instead of feeling like a powerful character moment it just feels like she gets the suit so she can be around when Tony dies

[@TotherKoala]

Yeah. Maybe if the Rescue suit had, idk, more than 10 seconds of combat screentime it would have been better

[@anjacup1422]

It would be neat if Pepper used the Rescue Suit to help people in the post-snap world

​@@ignacioperez5479 MCU is already as Cringefest why would you want dialogue like that? I get your point but bruh

Mark 1 is technically the most important suit because without it Tony would be dead or still in captivity and won’t even get the idea to make any suits

[@CINEMAZE]

So true

[@draketurtle4169]

Technically the most important suit was his dads birthday suit as without it Tony would never have been conceived.

I think it would’ve been cool to see in iron man 3 like a news montage of tony using these suits for their intended purpose

[@CINEMAZE]

100% agree or even a short film/marketing trailer

[@Zero2HeroX]

The only thing i dislike about the mark 85 is the fact that we jump from 50 to 85 and the 14 armors in between never get seen or mentioned, they took so much care to design all the armors between the mark 7 and 42 but it feels like they gave up in endgame, either that or they wanted a cooler number than 51 and didn't think about it, in my opinion the rescue armor should have been it's own separate thing like the war machine armors and then make the mark 50 into the mark 49 and the mark 85 into the mark 50 to give us a nice clean number pf armors with no gaps in between. Oh and very cool video btw

[@CINEMAZE]

Yeah I completely agree, it seemed like they wanted infinity war to be a cool number so they skipped 49 and went to 50 and then just said rescue was 49 to fill in the gap. And yeah they then wanted endgame to be a new cool number so chose 85. Apparently there aren’t models between 50 and 85 but instead a series of upgrades and improvements.

i think that mark 43 is the best because it just looks like a new desinge og the mark three

[@rednaxela5960]

I dont think its underrated, everyone knows its role and it dies its role well, its just that tonys mark 3, hulkbuster, and last nanotech suit are more interesting and feel like massive leaps. It does definitely deserve top 10 or even top 5 though, it feels real, feels practical for his situation, it just does everything right considering its a suit a supergenius made from scraps.

I don't remember where I read about it, but Mark 12 looks that way, because it was apparently suppose to be a Prototype for the new War Machine armour, that we see in "Iron Man 3" as Iron Patriot and then in "Age of Ultron" as War Machine. Similar to what Rhodey did with Mark 2 in IM2, they basically took the plans for Mark 12, changed it up to fit the overall aesthetic, and then repainted it to be the Iron Patriot.

[@CINEMAZE]

[@koelee]

[@Seraphim_1172]

My favorite suits are the two black and gold ones, the suitcase suit, and the nano-tech suits. Each one has reasons. The black and gold ones have my favorite color scheme, the suitcase is a super cool concept and looks super plate-y, with most of the bits and bobs standing out, and the nano-tech having the coolest abilities and, personally, idea. I love the idea of nano-tech.

[@CINEMAZE]

Awesome I agree

[@mrswordtoast]

When I was a kid, the Mark VI was always my favorite, i don't know why exactly, but the design is just peak imo.

[@kaeljadondavis2779]

Another thing cinematically that I think makes the Mk. IV the lowest ranking main suit that appears in the films is that it's also the suit Tony uses at the bottom of his barrel, Iron Man III notwithstanding. Taking away his tricks and toys, that was certainly a challenge of identity, but in that film he proved that he is the only one you can call "Iron Man," with or without the suit. He improvises tech, he doesn't lose so much of his sanity or character, and he's constantly doing really well despite the stacked odds. But, in IM2, the Mark IV is the suit he's wearing at the very moment where the audience starts to wonder if Tony Stark is worthy of the mantle "Iron Man." He was drunk, volatile, his worst traits were on display, and his best friend proved to be the bigger man at the end of the scuffle - *and the better pilot in a suit at the time.* (this works well no matter what you think of the idea that Tony was testing Rhodes that night) He was wearing the Mk. IV when he was least deserving of what he had, and so the suit reflects that.

[@matthewdegraw6947]

Actually, the Rescue armor was colored based off her dress she wore to the Firefighter Benefit in Iron Man 1. Also, I’m glad that Banner didn’t Hulk out of the Hulkbuster MkII. The directors said it best, that the loss at the end of Infinity War would be too convoluted if Banner had his personal victory in that same moment.

[@CINEMAZE]

Awesome fact about the dress I didn’t know that, and while I agree with your point about Banner - the resolution happened off screen in between IW and Endgame so it was not satisfying, if the arc was resolved in Endgame I wouldn’t mind but it didn’t so we may as well have seen it in IW

[@matthewdegraw6947]

@@CINEMAZE the reason why I don’t have an issue with it, is because the arc for Banner didn’t require showing that. His arc was grieving Natasha and realizing that everything had led to him bringing back the Blipped. Plus, in an already three hour long movie, that story beat would have added an unnecessary 15-20 minutes, in which it would just be Banner testing and finally getting it right. It wouldn’t add anything to the story the Russo’s were trying to tell.

[@Lazyguy5473]

the mark 46 is my fav suit, it's a perfect blend of the mark 3 type suits and the streamlined nano tech suits

[@_The_Iceman_7_]

I would put mk46 at first as its has all the traditional + modern features but its not nanotech

[@drago4441]

One of my absolute FAVORITE upgrades that he makes throughout is Speed of deployment. The mk 2,3,and 4 required an assembly line to put on and take off. Whereas the mk 5 was a suitcase, but it still took time to deploy and was super bare bones. The mk 6 still needed an assembly line but was much faster and more efficient. But still not good enough so Tony developed the mk 7. A deployable suit that can fly to him, scan the bracelets and self assemble, but it still wasn't fast enough, with flight achievable after 10 whole seconds. Though we don't see them in detail the mk 8 all the way to the mk 41 can simply fly to tony, open up, and be active in half the time it took the mk 7 (granted the one we see him suit up in iron man 3 is the mk 33 so who am I to say they all have the same suit up time) I won't comment on the mk 42 as it was very similar to the rest, but it could be done in pieces, and we can assume the same about the mk 43. The mk 44 is a special case since it's the biggest suit he has, and it's understandable that it's armor bits can't deploy as fast as the rest. The next significant step was the mk 46 where it was able to deploy inside a helicopter in just 3 seconds. Still not fast enough for Tony and the armor still had a lot of flaws. The mk 50 was a huge step, giving himself a nano tech suit, suiting up in about 3ish seconds, hard to tell with the slight slow mo they had. But given how fast he builds weapons, I can imagine that it's pretty damn fast. Same could be said withthe mk 85, but is probably faster, especially given the fact that in endgame, he jumped off stark tower, equipped the suit and was flying in around a second and a half. Thats fast

[@CINEMAZE]

Yeah it’s so awesome, it makes it feel like he earns every upgrade and improvements, compared with Black Panther who goes straight to nanotech

The hammerhead will always be in my heart

[@corndog1768]

Heartbreaker has always been my favorite. I remember when iron man 3 came out I got so excited when it popped up on screen

[@idavid8391]

Justice for the Mark 43! But still happy with the Mark 7.

[@The_One_Wolf]

The mark 2 is actually my number 1. It has the look of the mark 3, which is my favorite design, and the color scheme is just so cold, I love it

[@Bugplanet8840]

This was pretty good. I wouldn’t mind seeing something like this for live action dc speedsters

[@CINEMAZE]

Great idea, thanks for watching

[@louisbogli1804]

I will always love the Prodigual Son, Shotgun and Silver Centurion because Tony put them into good use for kicking the crap out of the Mandarin and Extremis. They gave us some of the best, if not the best, action scenes in the MCU.

[@julianarchibald4731]

Great list hard to disagree! Thanks for taking the time to make the list!

[@CINEMAZE]

Thanks appreciate the support!

[@directorliam]

Awesome video! Thanks for this, Iron Man is my favourite character. I won’t rank Iron Man 3’s various suits but out of them I do love Starboost, Silver Centurion, Shotgun, Heartbreaker, Hammerhead, Nightclub. I like the MK 49 Rescue too but I prefer the comic red and silver colour scheme. Infinity War’s Hulkbuster is fine too. Main suits: 1. MK 85 2. MK 6 3. MK 3 4. MK 50 5. MK 45 6. MK 7 7. MK 46 8. MK 43 9. MK 42 10. Hulkbuster 11. MK 5 12. MK 4 13. MK 1 14. MK 2 15. MK 47

[@CINEMAZE]

Thanks for watching as always! Great list, honestly most of the suits are pretty great and it was hard to rank as they are all cool

[@directorliam]

@@CINEMAZE yeah they’re all cool.

[@TheGamingCeratosaurus]

The reason why 27 is called the Stealth Suit is because it can color change That's why it's one of my personal favorites

[@CINEMAZE]

I know but we don’t see it do this and it doesn’t look great in its normal colours

[@eudacye709]

11:16 It's a reference to the Ultimate Universe Iron Man.

[@CINEMAZE]

Yep I do say this

[@NathanBurford-nt6oi]

my fav suit is the mark 2 with the sleek design and the colour and the sounds and the flap test wich was so cool!

[@aidenlegobatman]

2:01 HEV suit

[@therealpaperwastaken]

Exactly what I was thinking lol

[@memedude8303]

HEV Mark VI looking crazy

[@aidenlegobatman]

What about 2:16 ?

[@aidenlegobatman]

@aidenlegobatman no. That was for peace, and THIS is for radiation

[@lazzerchicken]

Nice to know I ain't alone

[@shotgun6160]

I liked the whiplash suit of the Iron Man 2 villain in their final battle a lot, even though it wasn’t built by Tony but it was scraped from his technology

[@Rafael-2105]

When Iron Man 2 came out. I spent years thinking they had skipped the number 4 for some reason because it never registered in my brain that the Mark IV was any different from the Mark III.

[@spideyman1146]

Fun fact: Mark 15 "Sneaky" and Mark 16 "Nightclub" actually swapped color schemes, "Sneaky" was originally Red and Gold but was changed to black early on, as for "Nightclub", it was Black and Silver with red lighting instead of blue but was changed last minute, it's promotional renders still remained the original Black and Silver colors along with it's appearance in Lego Marvel Avengers The game

[@CtchrRye75]

While I agree with most of these rankings I just absolutely cannot agree with any nanotech love. Both suits always felt wrong to me because they just seem far too sleek to actually protect against any damage. Still, great video, thanks for the hulk buster appreciation

[@CINEMAZE]

Thanks for the comment, I think the endgame suit feels stronger and less sleek than the infinity war nanotech. And also I always saw nanotech as slightly weaker but that was the trade off for having nanotech abilities

[@qwoji500]

My personal favourite will always be the mk ll, the silver just makes it look so badass and in my opinion, the control surfaces scene is the coolest ironman has ever looked

[@benmartell]

I think the mark 28 is a reference to half life. A suit with a black and orange color scheme used to protect the user from radiation, its literally the iron man version of the HEV suit

[@CINEMAZE]

Oh yeah, I can see the resemblance

[@yoloswagprobro8227]

Considering how many building are destroyed because of the avengers it makes sense why there are so many construction and rescue suits

[@CINEMAZE]

Great point

[@B1ackout850]

Personally i will always have a huge soft spot for the mk 45, i just love the design, i think the colors and small details look so good, its the spiritual sucsessor to the mk 7 in ny opinion and it just looks great.

[@CINEMAZE]

Why is it the successor to mk7?

[@kamenrider64]

Honestly I was a huge fan of those zord Morphin figures I had a few of them and they were fun indeed, Hasbro should definitely make some more of those, their basically transformer-like figures and since they already have experienced making transforming figures should be a piece of cake for them.

[@CINEMAZE]

Huh

[@HundredSlot]

Nothing will beat Mk2 and Mk5. The introduction, the suit up everything looks good

[@damprat141]

Mark 41 has been a long standing favorite of mine, it was a prototype of the one that comes in a bunch of parts that fly separately, it lacka most forms of armor plating wich makes it much faster, but less durable

[@CINEMAZE]

True but unfortunately we never get to see that

[@Four-of-aKind]

red snapper design is an abosolute beast, it looks like a crab, i actually like the color scheme of disco and mark 37 was shown in the very first in the final battle of iron man 3 where it scanned any extremis people.

[@MaxwellHicks444]

Love all the mini arc reactors on the MK 46 that’s my favorite non nano tech suit

[@playa_bolivianav8283]

i knew the mark 85 would be number one, it's the perfect culmination of all the trip of the armors, i used to hate the design in the comics because it looked cheesy but somehow they made it look epic in the mcu i love lt and i love the fact is the last one used in endgame

[@CINEMAZE]

Agreed, same with the scales on caps suit

[@playa_bolivianav8283]

@@CINEMAZE i love to debate to a Fellow fan and think the same

[@Gar1onriva]

Interesting list. I appreciate the thoroughness, but your audio is cut WAAY too tightly at the end of your lines. Aside from it making the commentary quite relentless, it literally cuts the last syllable off loads of words. I found that very distracting, but the list itself was great.

[@CINEMAZE]

Thanks for the constructive feedback, really appreciate it. I try to keep my videos as short as possible and considering this is a massive ranking I may have been a bit too brutal with my audio cutting while trying to keep the video fast paced. Will take this into account and try to fix this in future vids. Thanks for watching

[@Gar1onriva]

@@CINEMAZE I appreciate the reply :)

[@MaksPekalski]

Mk28 was literally just the HEV suit off of half life. Now that I think of it, the HEV voice is just the on board AI counterpart to JARVIS.

[@CINEMAZE]

Very true

[@blakecarver7175]

Did anyone notice that he used the fallout armour as what he compares the deep sea to

[@arrownoir]

The first one is still my favorite (the first completed version) My second is without a doubt the suitcase suit (though time deciding between this and the og).

[@matthewperez7473]

The mark 6 armor will always be my favorite. Just the triangular chest piece and added features made it a perfect succesor to the mark 4.

[@peteandaprilbrandy2819]

1:57 the plates can shift color like a chameleon, but I do agree the color isn’t really good. 3:23 I think that suit was just made to go fast if I’m not mistaken. 4:27 this one uses radar deflecting panels. 5:10 it is pretty cool 6:22 Tony has priorities. 6:49 this is one of my faves. 7:10 same it’s kickass 7:39 it’s just power armor lol 9:01 this is the suit I think Tony would’ve used the most due to the PTSD from avengers, since it’s made for space I feel like he would’ve kept that one in a special spot due to once again his ptsd.

[@lasagnapapa]

The MK45 was the coolest one. Perfect mix between mechanical and unrealistic

[@CINEMAZE]

I’ve only started seeing love for the MK45 since it appeared in Fortnite

[@Jynx_Hi_5]

15:15 For infinity war, if I’m not mistaken, Robert Downey Jr. requested it. Kinda. He said that at that point he was tired of wearing the bulky practical suits and had enough sway as Ironman that he told them to just mark him and cgi it in later. At least from an interview I saw.

[@CINEMAZE]

Yeah this is true but it does lead to a worse looking end result

[@Jynx_Hi_5]

@@CINEMAZE Yeah I agree. By that point he also said he was past his prime and him doing things in a suit would look bad, since he can’t do it like he used to. It’s a shame, I personally think for me Nano Tech would be number one if it was practical.

[@Tailsplays570]

Robert Downey jr was like no I don’t wanna wear something something bulky again make it cgi

[@HTL_VR_YT]

13:41 I absolutely LOVE this suit because Iron Man 3 is the first Iron Man movie I ever saw and Iron Man 3 was absolutely my favorite because of that exact same reason lol

[@solomanbrFN]

I've always liked mark 45 it just looks like a good balance of futuristic and old school suits to me

Are you sure it’s not cuz of Fortnite🤔🤔🤔

[@Unknown.Skymaster]

I personally like the mark two. I’m just a guy who likes things and it makes me feel all giddy and besides, who doesn’t chrome every now and then. Plus, who doesn’t like to watch an engineer work when it’s actually interesting.
