    Stan Lee Battles Hydra at Hong Kong Disneyland

    Marvel legend Stan Lee stopped by Hong Kong Disneyland recently to join forces with Iron Man in a battle against the evil forces of Hydra across the city of Hong Kong in Iron Man Experience – Presented by AIA.

    The attraction is estimated to have a cost of $100 million and employs a newer generation model of the Advanced Technology Leisure Application Simulator, currently used in Star Tours–The Adventures Continue. The attraction is located at the park’s Tomorrowland section, in an area named “Stark Expo”. Set a few years after the 2010 New York Stark Expo, Tony invites the visitors aboard the Iron Wing for a tour of Hong Kong, including the newly constructed Stark Tower. However, Hydra launches an attack on the city, forcing Tony to don the Iron Man armor and fight the menace alongside the Iron Wing.

    Arriving visitors enter the Stark Expo, where they can learn the history of Howard Stark, the founder of Stark Industries, before meeting current president Tony Stark, who is introducing a new invention known as the “Iron Wing”. At the expo, guests can experience the history of Stark Industries through inventions by Howard Stark, and into the present day, where Tony Stark is inspiring his team of scientists and engineers to make our lives better, more convenient and safer through technology. At the back of the area, guests can enter the simulator attraction.

    The Marvel-themed area also includes an interactive “Become Iron Man” experience in Expo Shop, themed merchandise and a character greeting with Iron Man.

    Stan Lee

    Stan was the clear winner in the confrontation. With his feet firmly on the ground again, he spent some time in the park and served as honorary Grand Marshal of Disney Paint the Night Parade. He left Iron Man in charge after his departure.
