Here's some good reading for Slasherman, or anyone else that may be interested in knowing more about Iron Man's history:
http://www.moviepoopshoot.com/comics101/22.html I stumbled across it while looking for a decent picture of the Mandarin (which I still havent found, by the way). Very complete and detailed history of Tony Stark and his alter ego.

I think its really early to see a picture of Mandarin, the poster of the armor was reported as a rough idea and it will probably not be the final design.

Robert Downey Jr. is Iron Man!
Source: Marvel Entertainment, Inc. September 29, 2006 Academy AwardŽ Nominee Robert Downey Jr. will take on the role of one of Marvel's greatest Super Heroes, signing on as the title character for Marvel Studios' highly-anticipated Iron Man. This project, the first feature film to be produced independently by Marvel Entertainment, will launch into theaters May 2, 2008. The film is being directed by Jon Favreau and will be distributed by Paramount Pictures. Downey is widely recognized as one of Hollywood's most versatile actors. Nominated for an OscarŽ for his extraordinary portrayal of Charlie Chaplin in "Chaplin," Downey has been featured in more than 50 films. His upcoming credits include "Fur" (co-starring Nicole Kidman), "A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints," and the David Fincher film "Zodiac." He has also recently been seen in such films as: "A Scanner Darkly," "The Shaggy Dog," "Good Night, And Good Luck.," "Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang," "Gothika," "The Singing Detective" and "Wonder Boys." Based upon Marvel's iconic Super Hero, Iron Man tells the story of Tony Stark, a billionaire industrialist and genius inventor who is kidnapped and forced to build a devastating weapon. Instead, using his intelligence and ingenuity, Tony builds a high-tech suit of armor and escapes captivity. Upon his return to America, Tony must come to terms with his past. When he uncovers a nefarious plot with global implications, he dons his powerful armor and vows to protect the world as Iron Man. "Robert Downey Jr. is one of the most talented and acclaimed actors of this generation. His versatility sets him apart and makes him an ideal fit to play such a complex character as Iron Man. We could not think of another actor better suited to bring one of Marvel's crown jewels to the big screen and be the centerpiece of our first independently produced feature," said Kevin Feige, President of Production, Marvel Studios. Marvel Studios is currently casting all supporting roles. Filming is slated to begin in Los Angeles in February 2007. Iron Man will be produced by Feige and Avi Arad. Executive Producers are Michael Helfant, Ari Arad, Favreau, Louis D'Esposito and Peter Billingsley. Downey is represented by CAA.

I dont know what I think of that casting...
He's a solid enough actor, but I just cant see him as Stark/Iron Man. Lets hope he can pull it off... Another thing: Anyone else afraid that they might take the Hulk-style idea for a villain? Ive been looking through some of the major villains, and alot of them are pretty similar. Wouldnt be too hard for the writers to combine a few, ala the Hulk movie....uh-oh.

Iron-Man, currently one of the most despicable characters in the marvel comics continuity...he seems to have turned into a really horrible person, but I'm sure that by some plot twist in the civil war thing, he'll do something to redeem himself...however, those events are taking place now, the movie will be focussing towards the beggining of his career, no?
From what I understand, you'll see various forms of the armour (there's been something over 30 throughout the history of the character in comics/cartoons), I doubt you'll see them all, but there will definately be an evolution...the one pictured may or may not the the "final" one. If you wanna see a cool take on Iron-Man, check out the animated movie "Ultimate Avengers", which is all around good viewing IMO...
