The “Tin Man” was rusted when found by Dorothy. Tin doesn’t really rust- it gets protected by an oxidized layer. What was so wrong with “Iron Man” or “Man of Steel”? You know- something that actually rusts?

@MookyTroubadour Well, tin is a weak-ish metal, so maybe that was chosen because of that. Yes, tin does not rust, but if it's riveted together with steel rivets, they could rust and freeze up the joints.🤷♂️
