ALEX Mead, a 7-year-old who was born with a partially developed right arm, received a surprise visit from actor Robert Downey Jr., who showed up as his famed Avengers character Tony Stark, Daily Mail reported yesterday.

What's more, the actor also presented Alex with a very special gift - a bionic Iron Man arm, the report said.

"Had the absolute privilege of presenting a brand spanking new 3D-printed bionic Iron Man arm to Alex, the most dapper 7-year-old I’ve ever met," wrote the actor on Facebook.

He also posted a video, in which he comments the young man's bow tie and inquires about his travels, according to the report.

He then pulled out two boxes, one with an arm for him and one with an arm for Alex, the report said.

Downey Jr. is not the first member of the Avengers to make a young fan's dream come true either, with Chris Evans recently visiting Seattle Children's Hospital dressed as Captain America, according to the report.
