With just a few more weeks left until the potential summer blockbuster "Iron Man 3" gets released (May 3) in theaters, news continues to trickle out about the movie. First there was the movie's poster, then photos, then the official trailer, and now we continue to get more specifics about the latest in the "Iron Man" saga. We know the villain will be the Mandarin played by Ben Kingsley. We also know Gwyneth Paltrow's Pepper Potts will play a large role, possibly even suiting up herself. Now we get to see a few new armor designs from Tony Stark's superhero.

Yesterday, "Iron Man 3" revealed a few more armor designs for the May 3 movie on their Facebook page. There has not been a lot of information given about the suits, like how prominent a role they will have in the latest film, but they are very cool to look at anyways. One of the geeky aspects about the "Iron Man" trilogy has been following Tony Stark's evolution as Iron Man. With that comes new and better armor suits.

If the trailer for "Iron Man 3" is any indication (below), it looks like fans will get to see plenty of new armor in this film. The two suits revealed on Tuesday are the "Mark 33" and "Mark 40." Both suits look pretty awesome (see below) and they even come with their own nicknames. The "Mark 33" is the "Silver Centurion" an enhanced energy suit. The "Mark 40" is a hyper velocity suit known as "Shotgun." There are definitely a lot of people geeking out about the unveiling of all these new suits.

Wait, it gets better. Two more suits were revealed on the "Iron Man 3" Facebook page again today (Wednesday). The "Mark 17" aka "The Heartbreaker" is an artillery level RT suit and the "Mark 38" aka "Igor" is a heavy lifting suit. Check out the four latest Iron Man suits.

There also was a recent TV spot that revealed Pepper Potts getting in the armor. The commercial should get fans even more psyched about the film. Every time I see a trailer or commercial for the movie I get even more amped up about the Mandarin villain as well. It looks like he will be giving Iron Man fits in the latest movie.
