AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR - Prepare To Be Wowed By Hot Toys' Incredible Hulkbuster Action Figure
Hot Toys has unleashed a first look at its upcoming Hulkbuster action figure, providing a detailed look at the suit which will be worn by Bruce Banner in the highly anticipated Avengers: Infinity War...
Avengers: Infinity War may now be in theaters but Hot Toys continues revealing its amazing range of action figures based on the movie with the latest being one of the most powerful suits in Iron Man’s arsenal; that's right, the Hulkbuster armour is coming back to protect Wakanda from Thanos's invading army. The spectacular Hulkbuster 1/6th scale Power Pose figure is truly incredible in every way.
The screen authentic vinyl-made collectable figure under Power Pose series is specially crafted based on the appearance of Hulkbuster in Avengers: Infinity War. This colossal figure stands approximately 50cm tall with 18 LED light-up functions scattered throughout the armor with awesome details, it is meticulously painted in iconic metallic red, gold and silver with weathering effect, two pairs of interchangeable hands including a pair of fist and a pair of relaxing hands, semi-articulated body with the ability to perform head, arms, wrist and waist movements. All of that is highlighted below!
Offering a detailed look at the Hulkbuster armour and revealing more about what we should expect from it in Avengers: Infinity War, you're definitely going to want to click the buttons below for the full gallery. Don't worry, though, there aren't any spoilers for the Marvel movie mentioned in this post!
As you can see, there's still one main arc reactor powering the suit and a number of others scattered all over the armour which are clearly necessary to keep this massive suit of armour working.
Is it a better design than the version we saw in Avengers: Age of Ultron? That's a tough question to answer but it arguably looks a little closer to the comic books and more streamlined where it counts.
As you can see above, this figure measures 50cm meaning you'll need plenty of room on your shelf to display this bad boy. It's incredibly impressive and clearly very intricately designed.
Talking of "incredible," you're no doubt well aware that it's not actually Tony Stark in this Hulkbuster armour; it's Bruce Banner! That's because he's having performance issues transforming into The Hulk.
Considering the fact that Bruce helped Tony to design the first Hulkbuster armour, it makes sense that he knows how to pilot this suit. I guess Iron Man must have made it despite him being missing!
Seeing the Science Bros reunite in Avengers: Infinity War promises to be a lot of fun, especially as their friendship has been an important part of the MCU ever since they met in The Avengers.
The Hulkbuster is designed to kick ass, so it doesn't feature a lot of fancy weapons. The armour does include the armour's trademark repulsors which are sure to come in handy during this battle.
The battle we're referring to is, of course, going to take place in Wakanda when Thanos sends his Outriders to Black Panther's home in order to try and retrieve the Mind Stone from The Vision.
Some toy packaging has seemingly confirmed that The Hulk will bust his way out of this armour in order to take the fight to the Mad Titan but time will obviously tell how accurate that was.
Regardless, seeing The Hulkbuster in action again has a lot of potential, especially in a scenario such as this one which will bring war to the MCU. Will he end up clashing with Cull Obsidian, though?
Promo art has pointed to that being the case but it's hard to say for sure. After all, that's been known to be misleading but this movie will surely find a way to spotlight this impressive looking armour.
The Hulkbuster is extremely formidable looking and probably the only way Bruce will be able to hold his own against Thanos assuming they cross paths during the movie's final battle sequence.
How does the Hulkbuster work without Iron Man inside? Well, it seems anyone can use it due to Bruce piloting it here rather than Tony's regular armour being used to power it in some way.
As you can see, the Hulkbuster has another arc reactor on its back and what appears to be two smaller ones on its arms as well. It's definitely good to see this armour back in the MCU anyway.
The sheer amount of detail on this action figure is mind-blowing and it shows not only how much work Hot Toys put into it but the amazing work done by Marvel's team of VFX artists as well.
With Bruce seemingly unable to transform into The Hulk, is it possible that he'll meet his maker during this battle? We know there will be casualties, so no one is safe in the Marvel movie!
