* In Iron Man 3, Harley tells Tony, mid-panic attack, "You're a mechanic, right? Why don't you just build something?" Then we see Tony Stark does make a bootleg suit until the Mark 42 charges, BUT that wasn't what he "built" that addressed his PTSD and made him feel better. It was <b>Ultron</b>. The misdirect was the quickie suit, but it was Tony's long term planning to build something that addressed his space nightmares.

** Or he's using them himself or plans to do so. As we saw in his opening scene in ''Film/TheAvengers2012'', Tony Stark did a lot of heavy lifting to build his own tower, maybe by now he either figures its cheaper to build his own suit and do his own work, or else he just finds it more satisfying to have a personal hand in such things rather than hiring a construction crew.

* In ''Film/IronMan2'', specifically the scene with the much-hyped "Exwife" missile failing horribly... It wasn't until I was walking out of the theater that I realised that it worked just fine. Rhodey just used like an idiot. Given every detail Hammer tells him about a missile designed to be bunker busting, it clearly has to be programmed with a minimum safe arming distance. Tony's lucky that it worked *exactly* as it was intended and refused to be armed for a launch distance too close for his and Rhodey's well being. A safety mechanism that stopped Rhodey from setting off a missile designed to blow up a whole bunker right next to his own face.
