Ah Iron Man, the lynchpin of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the best dressed man in superhero comics. Tony Stark has already been given a vast swath of costumes and armors in the films. Let's see. In Iron Man, there's the clunky Mark 1, the shiny Mark 2, and the iconic Mark 3. Iron Man 2 brings the red-and-silver suitcase armor and that good triangle chested boy that is the Mark 6 (and the Mark 4 but the Mark 4 is just sorta there). Avengers has the Mark 7 and it's weird silver thighs. Iron Man 3 has"¦ okay well a lot of armors but the key one is the modular Mark 42 and its gold tummy. Avengers: Age of Ultron's Mark 43 rebalances the red and the gold and the Mark 44 Hulkbuster is memorable as hell. And then the Mark 45 shifts a little more red-wards but still looks good. Civil War given us the Mark 46, my personal favorite. Homecoming's Mark 47 is fine I guess? It's just the Ultimate armor so it's too grey but whatever. And of course the Mark 48 nanotech armor which is friggin beautiful and it's shapeshifting is rad. And now I've talked about every important Iron Man armor in the films. But what about the ones we haven't gotten too yet?

10. Plastic Ghost Armor
Hey! Here's one that would make sense!
Wakanda's been discovered, Shuri's still around, Tony Stark always loves a new idea, it all clicks together! Plus, after Civil War, it would only make sense for Tony to take some precautions. This armor, dubbed the Plastic Ghost in the comics, AKA Model 22 AKA The Pantherbuster, was designed to be immune and invisible to Vibranium and it's effects.
As such, it was designed to go toe to toe with the Black Panther himself. True, T'Challa's not still around in the MCU (for now) but Tony's a smart man, and there are a lot of people in Wakanda who know how to weaponize Vibranium for devastating effects. Be afraid of them, Tony.
Stark loves being on the cutting edge of tech and there's no doubt he'd engineer a way around the new power source in the tech game. Plus, pink and white is a good look for Iron Man, not one I would have predicted, but one that's totally appreciated.
