Downey Jr. has Iron Man head at home!

The actor who plays the superhero and his alter-ego Tony Stark in upcoming sequel Iron Man 2 took the metal mask from the set as a memento but insists his home isn't too geeky.

Hollywood star Robert Downey Jr. has revealed he has the head from his Iron Man suit at his house.

The actor who plays the superhero and his alter-ego Tony Stark in upcoming sequel Iron Man 2 took the metal mask from the set as a memento but insists his home isn't too geeky, reports contactmusic.com.

"I have an Iron Man head at home and various other bits downstairs but my home isn't a shrine to Iron Man. But I think it's cool," he said.

Downey has previously revealed he asked film bosses to let him take one of the superhero's full suits home.

"The producers keep telling me that they're going to give me a suit with all the bells and whistles but I still don't have it. I don't know, maybe I should get it in my contract. It would be great to have one at home – a talking point," he quipped.
