I don't know why this has not already happened yet he would be able to wistand any impact just like Captain America's Shield !!

If he got hit, the vibrations would be absorbed into his suit and likely kill him. Caps shield has edges where the vibrations can be released.

So what if he he found a way to release the vibrations through his suit. just speculation and interest here.

It would have a lot of gaps, making him even more vulnerable.

he invents a gadget to harnas the vibrational energy and use it as an attack. Iron man is that smart.

@ALMIGHTY: If any body else did it ti would be brilliant, knowing his luck it would probably develop sentience take over his body get him drunk & embarrass him publicly ^_^

Is that why he hasn't done it yet?

Vibranium and Adamantium are both incredibly rare and are very difficult to smelt and mold... to make something as simple as a shield would be hard enough, but to make something as complicated and as intricate as IronMan armor and tech would probably be near impossible

If ultron can make his armor out of adamantium so can iron man. Heck as i recall Iron man once made armor out of URU once a similarly strong metal.

Bad writers or good writers depends on your perspective. Tony stark is certainly clever enough to figure it out but what than? Tony is now truly the invincible iron man. This would take away from several other heroes niches and overall make any team with tony in it less interesting from an action economy perspective. Hell iron man doesn't "need" a team for the same reason Reed Richards doesn't "need" a team. He can make highly effective robot duplicates of his team mates. Just look at Ragnarok as an example, hell he made a technological hammer that had most of the Powers Of Mjolnir.

anyway thats my 2 pennies as to why he isn't adamantium man instead of iron man.
