[@TheUnknowable]: Problems!
1. I also do not agree with the idea of RPing with yourself; it defeats the purpose of the whole thing. You shouldn't have to be reactive in that regard; actively moving to make contact with people is ideal.
2. A government bounty is a bad idea, because that gets people needlessly hurt. He wouldn't be able to get fast cash that way, especially if a Google search nets you the info (you'd think they woulda tried that already).
3. Radio Shack is out of business, more or less. There are alternatives, but that's an aside.
4. Panasonic is a Japanese company based in Osaka. You can't just license it like that off the US branch, and even then there are a LOT of issues just in regard to accepting that offer in the first place. Even disregarding the fact that he's in the suit, Stark has no credentials and there are a lot of questions and R&D that people would ask/do before anything gets approved.
And he needs new ID. The circuit isn't the problem here, though.

But, uh... Let's ignore for a sec how wonky the suit gets, since every scifi thing comes apart at the seams if you stare at it long enough. I can handwave refueling, but only to the point where the stuff you use and make for it only functions in the suit itself due to... I dunno, some mechanism within.

The scenario you proposed is also under the assumption that nothing will happen to Stark and Tyr. I assure you that won't be for long. 

I'm more confused at that line of thought tho. Multiple videos and pictures would be all over the net in an instant, and it wouldn't take long for that news to spread like wildfire. Also given the fact that you're in NYC, where Marvel/DC is super popular AND that we've had cases of characters being recognized on-sight, and well... You get the idea. Not even papparazi, too; the fact that Iron Man is basically a household name means he's a celebrity wherever he decides to head. ESPECIALLY if the auit is flying and people know which way he was flying off in.

I think a hotel clerk is the least of your worries, but I digress.

Honestly, I understand the worries that KoL and Rain have, though--reproducing stuff that you'd... Honestly need higher level equipment to build in the first place isn't just going to take a month or two. Not only that, but assuming you'll be flying solo this whole time and that nothing will happen are bad mindsets to take into this, and you're puppetting a lot of NPCs that I haven't given the OK for quite yet (most other minor cases I've handwaved 'til now, but anything major I'll likely say as much or imply it). Theoreticals can only get you so far.

Maybe it works. Maybe it doesn't. But high level execs aren't just going to accept something at face value.
