It&#8217;s an amazing replica of the Iron Man XD suit made of plastic and rivets. Anthony even goes to his local Children&#8217;s Hospital in it to cheer up the kids. Anthony is a truly geek who inspires awe.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>I based the build from this picture from comic-con. The Costume is 100% home made, the build took approximately 2 weeks and 5 days. I&#8217;m a very busy person as well! Over 700+ rivets and rivet washer used. All items on the costume are 100% made from scratch. I&#8217;ve lso taken this costume to the children&#8217;s hospital to give them a sense of joy to know that a hero has come to wishes them a happy Halloween.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span
