Sheng Yuan SY361A Hulk Bruce Banner Mecha

The long awaited mecha for Hulk Bruce Banner has arrived!





Items in the box: Instructions booklet, sticker sheet and lego parts in 8 7 sealed bags.





Assembled set (with stickers applied):

Base for the mecha, rotating computer console and Bruce Banner holographic screens.



Minifigures in this set: Bruce Banner and Black Widow. Black Widow has been issued previously in set SY276 but i have no idea where SY got the design for Bruce Banner in white lab coat. I really love this guy.



One of the flaw with this build is that i cannot get Bruce Banner to be seen from the cockpit while he's standing or sitting.

Bruce Banner in sitting position:





Bruce Banner in standing position:




To fix this, i put 1 piece 1x2 brick under his feet so he's more taller. (is it too tall? Or maybe i should use 2 pieces 1x2 plate, right?)



Parts of the body where ball-joint has been used. 




Parts that you can rotate/flip for more action/pose




The assembled set:




Rotating computer console with Thor's holographic panel.



Parts where the stickers have been applied.



Last but not least, a few pictures of mecha for Captain America in my next post :)

    2. I got it! The minifigure's arms are blocking the cockpit.
      Push the minifigure's arms back ;)
      (it works for me)

  3. SY should really have done side leg printing on Banner. That labcoat looks like a kitchen apron without it.

    How tight and fit are the ball-joints? These parts are really useful. It would be a shame if they are loose fitting.
