Iron Man Mark III suit (Ohio) suit with sound!

fantastic suit.- who made it for you... if you dont mind me asking about that, and do they currently still offer this suit for sale?

It was made by MasterLe whom is banned from this site and generally un-liked by the costuming community because of his cocky attitude, unwillingness to divulge building tips and a general poor seller/buyer ethic.

Mods remove this if you think it is inappropriate. I apologize if so.

Mark 3. It's a military-style version number, not a rating of how fast it can go.

looks awesome

I agree Le , hasn't responded to any of my calls or text sense I had got the suit , but hey its ok I will answer any questions you might have. I have some tweaking to do on my suit like find what paint he used. Im pretty sure its cherry red , but it has some metallic so i have yet to figure out some touch up paint. If any of you know it would be cool if you could help me figure it out

dude where in OHIO are you from? I'm working on a Mark III right now im from Westerville, 10 mins north of columbus

I can tell you what paint he used... as a former partner of his i know what he used, and really don't mind telling you. You're correct on the Cherry Red. Its an automotive retouch paint bought at autozone. Dupli-color perfect match if i remember correctly. its like $6 a can though. and the reason it looks metallic is because he used a silver base coat. hope that helps

DUDE YOU KIDDING ME!?
i live right off polaris too.... Pm me dude we have to get together!

Fantastic looking Iron Man Suit

Sorry I think the Master le Suit does not look that great.

I agree, it doesn't just look bad, it's painfully bad, it's okay as a starter I guess, but I wouldn't pay over $150 for one.

You can see he (Lee) didn't bother to size the thighs to your (OP) height and left it at his awkward lower body size.

Yea my thighs do need some work, but its a start Le told me I would have to do some tweaking, but its fun and a fun hobby.

Also, this was made so I could move comfortably in, a lot of suits out there you can barely move in making you look awkward. All in all its great for the public and a lot of people enjoy it so I am happy.

I agree that it doesn't look all that great but the public doesn't really care. As long as you're happy with it that's all that matters. Have fun with it!

Hey if you are happy with it then cool.

I can agree with that too.

How would you know that? Do you own one of those suits?

Just sayin'

I could also say that the suit you're wearing doesn't look too comfortable. I'd be scared all the rivets would come lose over time ripping through the actual hole that was made to secure the parts together, constantly having to "tweak" that suit after every wear.

Just my opinion as well

Someone needs to stop selling people suits made to his own size.

Yes I have seen Several Ironman suits and they look very awkward and uncomfortable. Thats why you don't see many guys wearing them out in about.

The only tweaking Im doing is to add more to the thighs and getting it more comfortable to wear. The rivets are placed very well and won't come undone. I agree with you tho LE , should just stick to making his suits for him because I would NEVER buy anything from him again. I am however enjoying my suit and it looks wayyy better then something you can buy at Halloween.

Come on guys give me a break!! Instead of downing my suit , help me make it better. lol

Hope you didnt pay full price for that (over 3k), considering Le usta promote how he custom taylored each armor for his clients..

As far as fixing it (thighs) you can rivet more pieces on it, but my suggestion would be to drill out the rivets dissasemble the thighs, cut new larger pieces using the original as a template then rivet the whole thing back together..
Better yet you could build new ones out of foam like don roberts or graphic jordans.

Hey thanks jay! I will try that, do you know where I can find this plastic that he used?

Walmart, $15-$20 trash can lids I think, by think I mean I'm 90% sure.
