The bottom middle of the second pic looks like the Destroyer-based armor. With that said, this information bears posting.

Click if you want to read up on every suit and why they were created.

Spoiler:

MARK XI - STEALTH ARMOR v.01
• A derivation of the MARK VI armor, TONY STARK configured it to have built-in stealth capabilities, which allow him to infiltrate the TEN RINGS' hideouts unnoticed.
• Slightly modified Mk.VI, with a dark blue color palette. Red eyes and Arc Reactor.

MARK XXII - LAYERED PLATING ARMOR v.01
• Experimenting with various forms of armor formation, TONY STARK designs this armor with the concept of retractable layers. This technology allows this armor to fold into a more compact form, making it more portable than the MARK V armor.
• Classic/Spandex Armor, v.01 has the horned face, v.02 has the rounded face with a different color palette

MARK XV - STORED KINETIC INTEGRATED NETWORK (S.K.I.N) ARMOR
• Attempting to create a new form of malleable liquid metal that could be configured into other shapes, TONY STARK creates the S.K.I.N ARMOR. Unfortunately, the alloy compound proved to be unstable, resulting in TONY STARK putting the project on hold.
• Looks like the comic SKIN Armor, but slimmer and more segmented. Huge shoulder armor.

MARK XVIII - SPECIALISED AQUATIC ARMOR v.01
• Designed with the sole purpose of undersea exploration in mind, TONY STARK builds the SPECIALISED AQUATIC ARMOR. Able to withstand greater pressures than his standard armors, IRON MAN travels deep into the sea to recover rubble from MANDARIN's attack.

MARK XL - ASGARDIAN DESTROYER ARMOR
• Taking into account that Earth might face future threats from the ASGARDIANS, TONY STARK set about designing an armor specially to take down any invading ASGARDIANS. Using the DESTROYER's blueprints stolen from S.H.I.E.L.D's HELICARRIER, STARK creates the ASGARDIAN DESTROYER ARMOR
• A mecha version of the Destroyer seen in Thor. Incomplete prototype.



MARK XXXVI - HEAVY DUTY BRUTE ARMOR v.02
• Designed for heavy duty tasks that his standard armors cannot handle, TONY STARK creates the HEAVY DUTY BRUTE ARMOR with sheer strength in mind. Equipped with state of the art hydraulic systems powered by a modified ARC REACTOR, this armor enables IRON
• A.K.A the Hulkbuster Armor. Not explicitly termed as the Hulkbuster though, since that's not the intended purpose. It's prototype is the Mk. XXII / v.01, and is smaller and more humanoid.MAN to take on the strongest enemies.

MARK XLII - X01 - PARTICLE RADIATION CANNON ATTACHMENT
• Unable to deal with FIREPOWER's fiery attacks, TONY STARK designs the PARTICLE RADIATION CANNON to absorb and channel TAGGERT's heat against him

MARK XLII-R - RAPID EVACUATION SITUATION CONTROL UNILATERAL ENFORCER (R.E.S.C.U.E)

• Feminine version of the Mk.XLII. Has firefighting functions.

MARK XLV - HYPERVELOCITY AUTONOMOUS PERSONNEL PROTECTOR γ (H.A.P.P.γ) ARMOR
• Mourning his dear friend HAPPY HOGAN's death, TONY STARK creates this armor in the image of his deceased friend. Equipped with its on A.I. programmed after HAPPY's neuro patterns, H.A.P.P.γ assists IRON MAN in his battles.

MARK XLVIII - HEART BREAKER v.01x
• Created using various parts and components from his damaged IRON ARMY suits, TONY STARK assembles a unique armor with high offensive capability. Armed with a larger ARC REACTOR with higher energy output, IRON MAN is ready to take on his most dangerous foe: THE MANDARIN.

Full size


MARK XLVIIIs - SPACE ARMOR v.01
• After experiencing the CHITAURI attack in THE AVENGERS, TONY STARK has been working on a suit capable of space travel. Crafted using a unique new metal alloy that absorbs his ARC REACTOR energy signature, IRON MAN travels into the far reaches of space to find the source of a coded SOS he receives.
• White/black/gold armor, which has the concept art leaked recently

MARK XLIX - HEART BREAKER v.02

3/4 Powerpose figures, 1/4 MMS versions.

 

[SkyIScrape]

If any of that is true then the entire film will just be a montage of Tony building armors to various AC/DC songs.

 

[Wake]

This is what worries me.

 

[Wor-Gar]

In one way this is really awesome and in another way it really really isn't.

Kind of true. Realizing the toy potential here reminds me of the Muppet show that "Jedi" became to cash in on toys. I hope they don't overdo it here.

 

[mikericm]

Wallets... you're fu*****!

Yuuuuuuuuup!


I'm not even going to pretend to fight it

 

[KillKen]

If any of that is true then the entire film will just be a montage of Tony building armors to various AC/DC songs.

I don't think that'll happen. If you read the comic leading into IM3 it shows TS showing Rhody his "Amoured Legion" so I think you'll just see them unveiled at some stage. I would think he has been building these since Avengers however long that time period is.

 

[ThatIsTooReal]

From a user on I09 regarding the after credit scene. It seems to make sense revolving the deep space suit.

"I was informed earlier today of some of the key plot points of the movie, by someone supposedly involved in production. It all sounded pretty believable to me and matched up with some of the various spoilers we've received via things like toys. He also went over the armors listed here. But of particular interest to me was this:

SPOILER WARNING

Spoiler:

Apparently the SOS is received at the end of the movie, and is from one Star-Lord (mask and all), so Tony takes off to find him (noting that, with the space armor, he's "ready this time"). Jarvis asks Tony where he's going and Tony simply replies, "I'll be back." This heavily implies to me that GOTG is probably going to take place before IM3, and will end with Starlord sending out the SOS (presumably Thanos is the source of distress and Starlord is warning them that he's heading towards Earth) and that Avengers 2 is going to begin (or at some point involve) Tony bringing back the Guardians to help with Thanos."

 

[mikericm]

There was a super Hi-Res version posted on superherohype's forums which showed off the suits better so I just cut them out of the bigger pic so details are a bit easier to see.

I particularly like this one

It resembles this

 

[Khonsu70]

Oh geez, the amount of merchandising from this movie will be staggering. I'll be down for Mark 42 and Iron Patriot MMS figures. If the RESCUE armor rumor is true, I'd want that. LOOOOVE the deep space armor, would get it as a power pose, but hope it makes the MMS cut. Really keen on the Heartbreaker, hope that's an MMS. I like a couple of the others in the concept art, will have to wait and see what is done with them. The one that really irks me is the "Hulkbuster" armor, it looks like a metal gorilla - terrible! Why did they stray so far from the comic design, it was pretty much perfect as-is? If it looks like that in the movie, any product based on that will be an easy "pass" for me! God, then there's the obligatory Mandarin figure, the already revealed Tony Stark figure - gonna have to be verrry selective with this bunch!

It is a concept art so who knows how much has change. Also if you did read my spoiler tag you'll see that it's not designed and purposed as the original hulkbuster, which was to go against the hulk should anything happen, this was designed for another purpose, for "heavy duty" stuff.

In any case, I'm just going to have to put up 42, IP and Deep Space. That alone is a good $700+

 

[Ron_Burgundy]

Taking a look at all these armors it's getting me just that much more excited to see IM3. Hot diggity damn

 

[edheng]

I got cha. I, unfortunately, have to have them all. It would stick out like a sore thumb on my shelf knowing I'm missing one.

But, who knows, come 2014, I may be priced out of this hobby.

Come 2014 we all may be priced out of this hobby

A secong mortgage is in my future.

That poster is suh-weet!!!

But, not to be a Negative Nancy.......what the heck is Iron Man floating on that would A. Float in the first place and B. Support the weight of Stark and an IM suit? Seriously?

 

[DiFabio]

Man, you guys are ****ed in terms of collectibles. This is crazy and cool.

 

[cofphoto]

Just saw an article on Super Hero Hype that says that the new IM3 trailer is due on 3/5....so we don't have to wait for Oz on 3/9.

ETA: Aha, to be more specific Tuesday 3/5 at 9AM PST!
