In one of the most anticipated scenes in Marvel’s The Avengers: Age of Ultron,
Tony Stark goes toe-to-toe with the Hulk in a massive new suit of Iron
Man armor, one long-time comic readers may recognize. Dubbed the
“Hulkbuster” armor,
this massive suit was designed with one purpose in mind – stopping the
Hulk in his tracks – and now Diamond Select Toys and marvelshop.com have teamed up to offer an exclusive figure of the famous armor as it appeared in the comics!
First appearing in Iron Man
#304, released in 1994, the Iron Man Mk 14 “Hulkbuster” armor was
an add-on to Tony Stark’s modular armor, one that would allow him to
stop the Hulk from tearing apart a factory that was manufacturing gamma
bombs. While the battle was a misunderstanding,
Stark kept the armor in case he ever needed it again, and it has
occasionally been shown as part of his “Hall of Armor.”
