I like it a lot. Quite a dinamic pose. Red Ronin was featured in an adventure of mine for marvel superheroes roleplaying game by TSR (wayyy olllld game) ^_^
I'm surprised to see someone remembering this creation by Tony Stark.

Red Ronin was developed with the assistance of Stark International by engineers and scientists Tamara Hashioka and Yuriko Takiguchi. It was intended to be used by S.H.I.E.L.D. against the monster Godzilla.
During one such battle, Rhian decapitated Ronin, leaving the robot inactive.

S.H.I.E.L.D. eventually rebuilt the robot with the aid of Stark technicians. One such technician, Earl Cowan, altered the robot so it would only respond to his brain patterns, similarly to how it had previously been linked to Rob Takaguchi. Cowan intended to use Ronin to orchestrate a series of events that would set off World War III. Fortunately, Cowan was completely ignorant of the shortest aerial route to the USSR and went eastward instead of going north and passed over New York City. This allowed the Avengers to intercept and defeat Red Ronin, and the robot's remains were carried off by S.H.I.E.L.D.
Ronin eventually wound up in the hands of Fujikawa Electronics. It was altered to look even more like a samurai in appearance. Numerous military and criminal organizations such as the Hand attempted to gain possession of the mechanoid, but were foiled by Wolverine and Sunfire.
Red Ronin has since "joined" the Thunderbolts during the Civil War series. Tony Stark mentioned in the "Civil War Files" one-shot working on that version and that the Fixer is likely all over it.

Your rendition of red ronin is better than the official ones (they seems a little cheesy), believe me

i was going for an updated yet still true to the design like kotetsushin jeeg's kotetsu jeeg (same design but modern stylings)....hate the helmet though, that's the best i could come up with.
