The charitable organization has helped to make another ailing kid's superhero dreams come true, transforming nine-year-old Iron Man fan Domenic Pace into Iron Boy — and he's even been endorsed by Robert Downey Jr. himself.

As reported by Today, Pace is suffering from cystic fibrosis, and asked Make-A-Wish Australia to grant his wish to become Iron Man for a day. World, meet Iron Boy, who just became an honorary Avenger thanks to Robert Downey Jr.:

Iron Boy saves SydneyThe wish of a seriously-ill nine-year-old boy has come true – he’s been declared a superhero for a day, carrying out a vital rescue mission and saving the city of Sydney from dangerous villains.New South Wales Police and the children’s charity, Make-A-Wish Australia, today joined forces, with the blessing of the Walt Disney Company Australia, to fulfil the dreams of “Domenic”, a schoolboy from Bringelly in Sydney’s south-west, who suffers from the life-threatening illness, Cystic Fibrosis.Around 9am this morning, Domenic received an urgent call for assistance from senior police and was flown by police helicopter from a suburban Sydney park to a busy Operations Centre at Police Headquarters, Parramatta.It was there he transformed into the superhero, “Iron Boy,” and was tasked with rescuing “Make-A-Wish” reporter, Hope Joy, from the clutches of villainous henchmen at a secret hideout.Police used Rigid Hull Inflatable Boats or RHIBs to ferry the nine-year-old and his family at speed to Clark Island on Sydney Harbour to carry out the rescue.Iron Boy was then called upon to battle his arch nemesis, “Ultron,” on the steps of the Sydney Opera House before handing him over to police.Domenic’s 12-year-old brother, Joseph, played the role of Iron Boy’s Marvel Comics sidekick, “War –Machine,” aka “Colonel Rhodes.”New South Wales Police Commissioner, Andrew Scipione, commended Domenic’s courage during a special medal presentation.“On behalf of a grateful Police Force and indeed the people of Sydney, I would like to thank Domenic for his tremendous efforts today,” Commissioner Scipione said.“It can’t be easy dealing with an illness like his and we feel privileged to be able to work with Make-A-Wish Australia to ensure his wish to be a famous superhero came true,” he added.“It also allows the Police Force to express its community-mindedness and sensitive side; and I hope we have made Domenic’s day.“It was also my great honour to present Domenic, or should I say “Iron Boy,” with a special acknowledgement, a Commissioner’s Award for Gallantry.“Not only has Domenic battled villains and saved his city, he’s stared down his illness and won the day.”
