The Iron Man Scooter is Worth Marvelling Over
Vivian Lau — May 30, 2012 — Autos
In this age, we see more and more revivals of classic Marvel comic books, but as this Iron Man scooter indicates, the fervid fandom does not stop upon leaving the theatre.
This scooter is modeled after Tony Stark's suit to the tee. Complete with a glossy, blood-red finish and definitely necessary mask atop the head of the scooter, the piece mixes some of the more popular robot movie franchises of recent popularity: Transformers and Iron Man. With this find captured by 9GAG user 'ohmama,' this vehicle is certainly one of kind (in this realm, at least).
The popularity of 'The Avengers' has shown what the combined power of our favorite superheroes can accomplish -- in terms of saving the world and busting the box office -- but who knew that such movies could inspire such accurate replications?
