Not soon after Superhero Hype confirmed the existence of IRON PATRIOT in the upcoming IRON MAN 3 movie, does paparazzi-shots of the armor on set has flooded the www!
"The armor made its first appearance in 2009's "Dark Avengers" #1. Following the events of the "Secret Invasion" crossover, Norman Osborn was mistakenly heralded as an American hero and tasked with leading a group of government-sanctioned Avengers. Taking the technology from Stark Industries, Osborn designed his suit to represent the then-recently-deceased Captain America." ~reported SHHAs movies go these days, I am wholly unsure the duration in which this character might see on-screen time, and frankly am hesitant to speculate, but there is this "thrill" that me might see more armored-characters ala 'Armor Wars' other than the current notion of the "Extremis" storyline.
Nevertheless, check out THIS post on TOYSREVIL where a local hobby-customizer customized a 1/6th-scale Iron Man from Hot Toys into the Iron Patriot!
