History

The thirty-eighth suit created by Tony Stark was a heavy-lifting suit nicknamed "Igor". It was designed mostly for non-combat situations.

The Igor suit was among those summoned by Stark to battle Extremis-enhanced soldiers assisting Aldrich Killian's plot. It was controlled at the time by J.A.R.V.I.S., Stark's A.I. program. This armor was specifically tasked by Tony to support a large portion of the structure of the seaport after the explosion caused by the destruction of MK XXXV destabilized structures in the area.

This armor was destroyed whether by Extremis soldiers or when Stark activated his "Clean Slate" protocol which blew up the remaining suits in a symbolic way of telling Pepper Potts his creations would no longer be a distraction neither his main priority, or possibly it wasn't destroyed at all, as it was holding the structure.

Notes

• This armor was first revealed in the application "Iron Man 3: Armor Unlock" for the official Iron Man 3 Facebook page, in which a participant had to correctly answer sets of questions about the cinematic version of Iron Man in order to unlock exclusive looks of new Iron Man armors to appear in Iron Man 3 and the chance to win a trip to the premiere of the film in Los Angeles.

  

Trivia

• Igor was designed as a homage to the Hulkbuster Armor from the comics.
