Here’s a fun gig I hosted recently. Fancy a chance to become Iron Man? I know I do, each time I see Robert Downey Jr don the iconic Red and Gold suit, I sit and start day dreaming about putting on the suit myself. Well the dream is now a reality thanks to Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures Singapore.
Thanks to some state of the art technology, you can now see yourself Become Iron Man at the exhibition held between 19 April and 5 May, from 10am to 10pm, Iron Man fans can head down to Bugis Junction, in front of Hotel InterContinental.
I got to host the media preview session and tried out the simulator twice! You get to test the new Mark 42 armour before it goes back into active service and you’ll be assisted by Tony Stark’s personal assistant J.A.R.V.I.S. I like how they got Paul Bettany to voice the commands as you suit up! What you’ll be seeing on screen are a series of visual commands to help attach parts of the Mark 42 onto you and then you’ll be doing some target practice with the repulsors (ammo is unlimited here so please by all means fire as much as you want). The last phase of the test is the flight systems which will see you fly around Tony Stark’s workshop on screen.
Yahoo Singapore also came by to talk to me about the experience of of course I said I totally enjoyed it! Well there are still a few days for you to go check it out and I’m very sure the kids will love it!
