Apparently, to commemorate the wrapping of The Avengers, Robert Downey Jr.’s staff pitched in and got the Hollywood star a little something. Well, it’s not exactly little, but it certainly is something. And it flies.

It is, in fact, a flying RC Iron Man built by master model plane maker and proprietor of RC Superhero, Greg Tanous. The model stands 6 feet tall replete with glowing eyes, chest piece, hands, and feet. Details on the custom-built aircraft’s specs and capabilites are sketchy, though it does look uncannily like the 19-inch models that are available on Amazon.

Unfortunately, RDJ’s is an amazing one-off, so you have roughly zero chance of buying one for yourself unless you go all Tony Stark and build it yourself. [UAS Vision]
