Billionaire playboy Tony Stark apparently has a soft spot for holidays.  

Marvel has released an Iron Man 3 holiday image featuring Robert Downey Jr.’s character stranded in the snow -- a shot alluded to in the first trailer for the film.

From what we know of the flick, this shot takes place in a section of the film during which Tony is forced to drag his apparently nonfunctioning Iron Man armor behind him. It's not exactly celebration time, but it does make for a picturesque holiday card.
