Hello friends and welcome to another post from Legomaster! In todays post we be covering a revised Hulkbuster suit and a special announcement at the end.
Here is the BRAND NEW Hulkbuster!
You may be asking, "What was wrong with the old Hulkbuster? That one was so much cooler". Well, the one problem I did have with it was that it was EXTREMELY off scale. The Thanos bigfig is the same size as the Hulk, and that thing was HUGE. So to even it out I completely redesigned it. I based it off this design. Go check it out once your done here!
Inside we have the egomaniac himself, Tony Stark. Normally Rhodey would use this, but Tony doesn't trust him with it yet. Lets start this review with the arms and work our way down.
On the top left shoulder(his left), War Machines classic gun is mounted. Instead of shooting resourse waisting bullets, he fires eco friendly laser beams.
Next are the arms, which are probably one of my favorite parts. From this view here you can see the wheel rims being used as arm parts.
While building this mech I learned a new technique that many could use. If you use a click hinge(most commonly found in lego dragon sets), it makes a very sturdy and awesome looking arm joint.
From there we go to the chest which houses the arc reactor. The telephone is for detail. Besides, what if he needs to take a call?
From the chest we go to the legs. They are jointed at the hips, knees, and ankles like an actual leg to give you many ways to pose it. Putting hinges on the toes will also allow you different ways to display your mech.
Here it is in all its glory!
Thanks for reading today! Now for the announcement. Lego Ideas Website is releasing new contests very often. Right now they have 3 contest going on, which are Build something spectacular from the world of 007, Build an add on, and most recently, Build something from the world of Harry Potter!
