Motto: "Never doubt the awesomess."
Weapon: Energo-Sword
In the book "The Story of Marvel Studios: The Making of the Marvel Cinematic Universe",in one of the interviews,Jon Favreau,the director of Iron Man and actor for Happy Hogan,commented on how Transformers helped to shape the special effects of Iron Man:
Jon Favreau wrote:Seeing Transformers was very helpful because I saw how good ILM (Industrial Light & Magic) now was at doing hard surfaces.”

He is refering to the scene where Tony suits up with Mark III for the first time.
The armor up scene:
