New Concept Art from Iron Man 3 Shows New Armour and Iron Patriot

Iron Man 3 - Mark XLVII and Iron Patriot Armour (Armor)

We have already seen displays of the alleged Mark XLVII armour at San Diego Comic-Con this year, and now Marvel has released concept art of suits for both Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr) and James “Rhodey” Rhodes aka War Machine (Don Cheadle) from Iron Man 3.

What was previously thought to be the Iron Patriot armour, played by the Spider-man‘s Norman Osborn in the comic universe, has recently been confirmed as the latest iteration of the War Machine costume worn by Rhodey in Iron Man 2. If nothing else, the shoulder cannon would be indicative of the man inside the suit.

Despite some delays due to Robert Downey Jr’s injury on set, production has recently wrapped up on the film. With a release date of 3 May 2013, and an even earlier release date of 25 April 2012 here in Australia, we hope that we can expect that first teaser trailer (or at least a teaser for a teaser trailer) shortly.
