'''Iron Man''', aka '''Anthony Edward Stark''', appears to be the most sensible member of his species. While a normal, squishy human would be content to walk around vulnerable to attack, he has taken the surprisingly logical step of encasing himself in a metal suit carrying advanced weapons like a ''proper'' being.<br />
<br />
He is not [[G.B. Blackrock]].<br />

===IDW Generation 1 comics===<br />
For some time, Iron Man had been investigating rumors of [[Transformer|giant alien robots]] secretly living among humans, and constructed a giant armored suit just in case. His suspicions were confirmed during the [[Decepticon]] attack on [[Latveria]], and he took his giant suit to join the other Avengers who were investigating the situation. On the way, he was contacted by [[Captain America]] to make sure that [[Ratchet (G1)|Ratchet]]'s [[Psycho-Prism]]-repressing devices were safe for humans. Iron Man arrived in Latveria just in time to join the Avengers and their new [[Autobot]] allies in the fight against several super-powered Decepticons. {{storylink|Man and Machine, Part Two}} While the giant suit was effective in the face of the alien robots, it proved quite the energy guzzler, nearly expending all its reserves during the battle. The Autobots helped Iron Man out by offering their own energy, supercharging his armor to dangerous levels. {{storylink|Man and Machine, Part Three}}<br />
<br />
When [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]], leader of the Decepticons, arrived on the scene, Iron Man challenged him personally... and was quickly dispatched. Overloaded with energy, his anti-Transformer suit was finished off when Megatron severed its head with his [[fusion cannon]]. Fortunately, Iron Man himself was controlling the mech from inside its chest, and came out unharmed to continue the battle using his regular suit. Eventually, the Decepticons were vanquished and the situation in Latveria was resolved. As Iron Man returned home aboard the [[Quinjet]], he was already making plans for an even ''larger'' suit... {{storylink|Man and Machine, Part Four}}<br />

**''Accessories:'' Two missiles<br />

Each wing is also equipped with a spring-loaded missile launcher, which can be mounted on the undersides of his robot-mode forearms.<br />
: This mold was later redecoed in gray and black. Note that the toy pictures on the packaging have a different color scheme than the actual toy.<br />

* Iron Man is voiced by [[David Kaye]] in the cartoon ''[[wikipedia:Fantastic Four: World's Greatest Heroes|Fantastic Four: World's Greatest Heroes]]'' as a guest character, and by [[Tom Kenny]] in ''[[Wikipedia: The Super Hero Squad Show|The Super Hero Squad Show]]''.<br />

'''War Machine''' is a black [[Iron Man]]. He's a big fan of firepower, believing it to be very important to have as many guns on your person as possible. To this end, he got the military to upgrade his original armored suit into a massive, heavily armed mech capable of transforming into a jet.<br />
