During Release For Iron Man 2, Paramount Trots Out Real Iron Man Suit

Posted by on September 28th, 2010

Here is the XOS 2, a creation of Raytheon that is billed as the closest thing to an Iron Man suit but is really just a super sick exoskeleton that allows for increased strength without having to be tethered to a power source.

Also, Paramount demo’d one of these as a promotion for the home video release of Iron Man 2. Pretty boss move by them.

    What is the one thing you would use this for that would be a total waste of its capabilities?

    Seriously? They design a robotic exoskeleton for the military, and they want to use it to move heavy boxes?!? I’m so disappointed right now. They could easily build one of those things with a 50 cal machine gun mounted on each arm, but apparently 100% badass shock-and-awe no longer means anything…
