Description

Yet, Lego carries on releasing even crappier models, like this hulk-diaper-buster (seems to be the consensus so time to coin it), with the expectation (hope?) Lego fans will keep buying it. That's crazy presumptuous and out of touch. Problems continue on the chest. Rather than gradually bowing outwards and presenting the arc reactor proudly at the centre of the torso, the armour actually curves inwards. I do like the trans-opalescent blue Fresnel lens though, which was introduced in trans-clear with 21335 Motorised Lighthouse. This vibrant colour clearly stands out against the surrounding dark red armour. The set was provided for review by LEGO. All opinions expressed are those of the author. Box and Contents

Such detail is missing from between the Hulkbuster's legs, instead leaving two dark bluish grey plates exposed. These are easily visible if the model is displayed on a high shelf and could have been finished with continued texture. Thankfully, some mechanical detail is included behind the armoured knees, which also incorporate repulsors. Items that are not available in store will take 3-5 working days (excluding weekends and bank holidays) to be delivered to your nominated store. LEGO fans are sometimes guilty of hyperbole, particularly when criticising sets. However, I feel comfortable in saying this is among the weakest modern direct-to-consumer sets. The copious major inaccuracies are totally unacceptable at this scale and the Hulkbuster's design is severely compromised to accommodate 76206 Iron Man Figure, which was certainly not worthwhile. It’s simply a bad design decision. There’s no other way to excuse this. The smart play would have been to make it look better. If a designer wants a feature where the dome opens and you can see an Iron Man on the inside, you include a mini build with the set that is just the upper shoulders/chest/head of Iron Man. That could slot in to the big guy when the head piece and other parts are opened up, with those pieces having appropriate interior detailing.I'd think it's more likely Lego's own marketing department were adamant on that one feature, as a way to push the sales of that set a bit. If done right it would have benefited Lego, not so much Disney/Marvel. Also true, but that isn't premium product. Sometimes just a random thing with a logo or artwork slapped onto it. However, when it comes to figurines, action figures, dolls, or premium products, like expensive LEGO sets, I'm willing to bet there's a team of product managers overseeing those. Licensors always have to give their final approval before a product is being manufactured. So someone somewhere in an office at Disney signed off on those LEGO sets that deviate heavily from what we ultimately see in theaters or on our TVs. However, that doesn't explain everything that's wrong with this Hulkbuster set. October 2022: Today, the LEGO® Group is excited to announce its latest LEGO Marvel Studios’™ Release – The Iron Man™ Hulkbuster™ set, featuring Iron Man as he appeared in the mega-hit film Infinity Saga – Age of Ultron. LEGO has produced almost fifty versions of Tony Stark and Iron Man since 2012 and the latest edition is relatively bland, unfortunately. This minifigure takes inspiration from Avengers: Age of Ultron and the scene in which Tony supervises the completion of Vision, sporting his partial Iron Man armour. The design therefore reflects the movie, but choosing this minifigure to accompany the Hulkbuster seems odd.

There’s a lot that is unexpectedly different about 76206 Iron Man Figure, in ways that as you build it you can immediately appreciate, and then once complete you can really enjoy, and it’s just as fair to say then that there’s also a lot that is unexpectedly good about 76206 Iron Man Figure. IBut obviously I'm just guessing here. I bet they could have made a great documentary of the development process of this set...." Placing the figure inside is fairly simple, as long as the legs are positioned shoulder width apart and the arms are posed by Iron Man's sides. This could be an unusual and appealing means of displaying the Hulkbuster with 76206 Iron Man Figure inside, but the surrounding structure looks unfinished. Once again, some mechanical details could have solved this issue.I'd rather celebrate winner Lego sets with the community, but that is becoming less frequent. The Hulk-diaper-buster is a loser, represents a bad trend for Lego, and I will not pretend otherwise. "

It’s new in concept, interesting in detail, different in design and for all those things, a welcome change of pace for a theme entering its second decade. Now see how a buildable Hulk minifigure looks… This premium and highly collectible massive LEGO set is a great way to show off your passion for superhero films, comic books, and of course Iron Man and The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Official images present the shoulder armour folded against the torso, as shown below. I cannot understand why because these armour panels are adjustable and they should cling to the upper arms, rather than the chest. Also, the pectoral chest plates are vastly oversized and seem quite flat, given they are not angled properly. This set comes in an “thumb punch” style box featuring the logo of the Marvel Cinematic Universe catch-all branding, “The Infinity Saga.” The fully constructed figure appears hovering in the air, with his palm-mounted repulsors ready to be raised for battle. Stark wore many, many different armors during his tenure in the MCU. This set specifically is modeled after the Mark XLIII armor, which was featured in 2015’s Avengers: Age of Ultron. An image of Thanos holding up the Infinity Gauntlet appears on the right-hand side of the box.

The LEGO Group was founded in Billund, Denmark in 1932 by Ole Kirk Kristiansen, its name derived from the two Danish words LEg GOdt, which mean “Play Well”. Today, the LEGO Group remains a family-owned company headquartered in Billund. However, its products are now sold in more than 130 countries worldwide.
