The Proto-Classic Armor, also known as Model 02, was an armor that appeared in the first volume of the Marvel Comics entitled Iron Man, that was created by Stan Lee, Larry Lieber, Don Heck and Jack Kirby.
It is a type of Iron Man armor developed by Tony Stark.
After losing a confrontation with Mister Doll, Tony Stark decided that the Golden Armor was too heavy and bulky (as it was made from iron plate). He built an all-new suit of armor, which was a mix of hard components (wrist units, facemask) and flexible, lightweight metal "fabric" connecting them (along the arms, legs, etc.). This Proto-Classic Armor would be the template for many armors to come.
