Well, not it all. But the 2008 film Iron Man did start what is now the largest movie series and blockbuster phenomenon the world has ever seen.
It’s no surprise that Iron Man was the foundation for the Marvel machine either. I mean, have you seen the futuristic suit and the almost irritating charisma of the character?
Fortunately we live in a day and age where where you can find the best Iron Man Minecraft swag just with a quick search.
Without overexaggerating too much, I do mean it when I say that Minecraft has some of the coolest skins and alts for Iron Man that you can find anywhere.
While we’ve seen plenty of Iron Man suit renditions throughout the ages, the original bronzed red and gold hits the nostalgia zone on the head.
I can’t tell if it’s the overall visage of the skin, or the way that creator lblts included all the small detailing from the blaster hands to the jetpack.
Either way it all makes this skin so great.
And all I know is that one look at this skin has AC/DC songs revving up in my head, and it leaves me itching to slap on an Elytra and live out my childhood dreams of being a superhero.
As the movies went on, the Iron Man suits grew in complexity, with Tony Stark’s developing tech and apparently infinite resources.
By the time this Endgame suit came on the scene, this futuristic design was powered and built exclusively from highly portable nanobots.
While Minecraft doesn’t yet have a nanobot patch in place, that doesn’t have to stop you from slapping on a nanosuit from one of the highest grossing movies of all time.
So it only makes sense that Microsoft’s X-Box influence would then leak into Minecraft, specifically onto Iron Man skins.
OK in all seriousness, somehow the black and green clunkiness of the X-Box inspired design not only works… it rules.
The subtle highlights between layers of the armor in bright video game colors makes this skin an instant attention-grabber. Even if you’re not a big Microsoft fan.
Here’s a skin that’s the epitome of the fusion between Iron Man and Minecraft.
It never occurred to me that the Iron Man suit could be adapted in so many ways. But seeing the black and deep purple of the End infused in the suit: it just seems natural.
I wish words could describe how cool the metal-End fusion is.
But who needs words when you can just get the skin and see for yourself!
Another example of a re-colored Iron Man skin looking somehow infinitely cooler than you thought it could.
Yep, this Crystal Blue Iron Man design has a special place in my heart.
I couldn’t tell you if it has earned that special place because I love the blues, the wintry feel of the skin, or the fact that it’s so darn well made.
While the above skins have taken recoloring to mean blue or black, this Portal-inspired Iron Man skin takes the experience to a different level.
This is a masterclass in balancing the futuristic textures associated with the machinery of the Iron Man suit, along with the sleek and contrasting colors associated with the Portal series.
The result?
An MC skin worthy of representing both the film and video game franchises it’s inspired by.
The Iron Man Stealth suit is like taking the original Iron Man design and transporting it into some Matrix-y future.
The ice cold feel of this design paired with the all-black stealth feature of the skin make for a design that you can almost feel just by looking at it.
