r5-j2 Posted January 17, 2017 Here`s a couple of pics of the two Marvel "characters" I`ve been waiting on and are long overdue.I haven't yet opened up the other bags of the set yet ,because to be honest the Detroit Steel mech to me is only "o.k."; Lego have not provided much in the way of printed parts (only Lola`s front grill looks be a print) and the mech is heavily reliant on stickers for it`s red, white and blue colour scheme, unlike the earlier Hulkbuster which is much better, also I think I prefer the old style Iron Man helmet moulding . However for the money (£30) ,this set is still worth getting, but I`ll be looking at some way to improve the mech. IMG_2360 by kenny burns, on Flickr IMG_2362 by kenny burns, on Flickr Regards Kenny.

Tom Jurassic Posted January 17, 2017 Gotta love Lola. Did you apply the stickers to the inside of the wheel arches too? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I did, I`m a bit cack-handed with stickers, but you don`t see them much anyway, there`s also a sticker for the consul above the steering wheel, but I can live with that, but I would have happily paid a few pound more to get printed parts instead of stickers...what do you think about maybe spending a bit more to get a guaranteed neater finish?

Kenny. I would like that, but I know that a lot of customisers prefer being able to deconstruct their products and use the bricks for other projects, so I understand that. I've replaced the yellow technic pieces with light silver ones to match the rest now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
r5-j2 Posted January 17, 2017 (edited) Time to get my spares boxes out and I see the reasoning about not everything being printed, I tore down my Black Panther jet to complete a Batwing and managed to clean off the sticker goo with nail polish remover so I could reuse the parts, but it was a pain Kenny Edited January 17, 2017 by r5-j2 took out Batwing link as this a Marvel Topic!!, no DC Here!

Looks like it's the custom one from minifigures.com - http://www.minifigures.com/products/stan-lee.html There isn't an official Stan Lee minifig, although I would love one!
