[Music] hey everyone hey guys welcome to obscure MCU in this episode I'll be answering the biggest question I'm sure most of you had after watching Iron Man 3 and that question is which suit did the helmet Tony leave a voice message in belong to though I'm almost certain what the answer is I'll walk you through My reasonings as to why for starters when Tony home was attacked to ensure his exposed suits in the Hall of Armor weren't jeopardized or stolen he ordered Jarvis to self-destruct them so the marks 1 to 7 were all blown up the rest of the iron Legion were secured in deep storage in the wine Celler immediately Crossing them off the list and ensuring it must have been one of Tony's first seven suits next would be the color scheme due to the red and gold plating we can further deduce it must be either the Mark 3 4 6 or 7 at first glance you'd be inclined to think it's the Mark 7 which was prominently featured in The Avengers and even made an appearance earlier in the film however upon closer inspection we can rule it out if you look at the chin line of the helmet's face plate in the scene there is a noticeable upwards indent but the Mark 7 has a straight edge with no upwards indent which eliminates the the Mark 7 from our options which leaves us with the marks 3 4 or six all of which share a similar helmet design to figure out which one it could be we need to consider an important function that we see in the scene the helmet plays back a recorded message from Tony this playback feature has been shown on screen in both the Mark III and the Mark 6 armors meaning we can rule out the markv even though it probably shares this feature but bear with me guys now it's down to the Mark I and the Mark 6 while both have similar functions there's a subtle visual difference between them that can help us make the final call The Mark 6 helmet has a slightly narrower face plate compared to the Mark 3 which has a more rounded look if you pay attention to the shape of the helmet in the scene the face plate is narrower matching the design of the Mark 6 and to further back this idea up is the helmet's ability to expand when pepper goes to put it on which also emanates a blue light and we've seen this exact feature in The Avengers when Tony puts on the Mark 6 helmet before chasing after Thor what suit do you think the helmet belongs to let's discuss in the comments and please like And subscribe for more videos coming soon thanks for watching fine we could have been in Venice oh please
