Honestly the Ransom Fern one looks like it was built by a complete master builder like Emmet whereas the official looks like something 7 year old me would build if I had the pieces
Ransom Fern's versions is amazing!! It took forever to build for me as well, reminded me being a kid in the early 2000s with some UCS sets before numbered bags. I didn't have any problems fitting Iron Man inside, I think the instructions even has a guide. But you had to fold and turn things certain ways and be careful.
I guess the one good thing about the original being so bad is that its pretty easy to get a big discount on it and then just build the alternative version!
I love the Hulk Buster. Even with its draw backs. The Ransom Fern version is awesome and I do like the dimensions. I guess beauty is in the imperfections?
I built the moc and all the pieces in the instructions were there - 1:14 There are some slightly different colors that I accidentally used earlier to find out I didn't have it when I needed it, made me having to re-do a leg, other than that it was fine.
Its amazing that it is even possible to build such a good looking model from the same pieces. Honestly it shows how badly LEGO whiffed on this set. They could've done so much better. Honestly, I still think the UCS Hulkbuster is the single worst Lego set I've ever seen all things considered.
I kept my hulkbuster og! It kinda grows on me! And yes the rfa version looks very pretty! When i saw it over at my buddy’s house.. it’s quite flimsy even more than the og. They should have just made a 300 bucks one the size of the ninjago mechs! My son really likes those! And they are the perfect balance between size and still being very stable builds!
Lego has to prioritize stability over everything when it comes to big models like this and while the original doesn't looks the greatest, it shows that if want to achieve certain shapes and curvature you need to sacrifice stability (a big dilemma indeed).
It was funny how he was knocking the MOC on stability when trying to put the Ironman figure in when the original wasn’t known for being super stable either. I remember a number of review videos had parts falling off from just having it spin slowly on a turntable.
@@Gzilla313 this why we don't see too many good replica models of things like the hulkbuster, because while the good looking curvature is possible, it comes at the cost of bad stability. Of course I'm sure with some practice and a series of small technic pieces, anything is possible.
@@productionsinparadise2880 if you visit tge original designers channel, and other that have built the model the stability isnt that different from the original. And its especially good being built ALOT BETTER with oly the supplied hulkbuster parts.

EXCELLENT CREATION LEGO 2022 REBUILD HULKBUSTER. MINISUPERHEROTODAY,
I doubt 7 year old you could build that
Blew me away when you revealed it's the same pieces. Would've actually bought it if LEGO came out with this version
Incredible MOC, just bought the instructions now I just need to find time to disassemble my set cuz i cant ask lego for another one like you 😂😂
honestly debating building the moc. I've had the hulkbuster set in box for a few months waiting to create the moc
wow. if i had the money i would definitly build it.

I had the same issue with the pieces, but it was minor and I chalked it up to my mistake as well. Such an incredible build.
Thanks for a great direct comparison between official, unfortunate, flop set, and its superior alternative build
The ironman figure can fit inside nicely, there is a tutorial on Ranson fern's channel
Might just buy the set to build ransom ferns design
It's still so hard to believe they used the same parts and that the one on the right is the MOC and the other one is the official set.
The right looks soooooooo much better!!
THIS is leaps and bounds better!
Now you have 2 of that thing
I am only buying this set for the custom build
I had no issues when I built mine. I’m pretty sure it’s all user error.
Ironic how easy it was to make it look cooler (not really easy but i mean)
I guess the one good thing about the original being so bad is that its pretty easy to get a big discount on it and then just build the alternative version!
Yep I believe Walmart still has it for 325 usd instead 550 MSRP
I love the Hulk Buster. Even with its draw backs. The Ransom Fern version is awesome and I do like the dimensions. I guess beauty is in the imperfections?
I mean this is the best version of the hulk buster ever if this was put at its retail price would you buy it?
Same here man:)
I built the moc and all the pieces in the instructions were there - 1:14
There are some slightly different colors that I accidentally used earlier to find out I didn't have it when I needed it, made me having to re-do a leg, other than that it was fine.
The gold bar - under the armpits, on the side - are supposed to go over the pecs 4:16, not behind them
Thanks for the advice. I recently bought my Hulkbuster to build the moc
@@Mr.Lord_117 Good luck, it's an awesome display item

ayyy you finally built it! i remember telling you about this model so long ago XD
Tommy I absolutely adore your work
@@AndrewGarfield_ thanks so much :)
If you want to see how to put the iron man into the hulk buster. Ransom ferns video shows you how to do it. You have to open a lot of things for it
Looks nice but unstable.
itis cool bro
I would be so embarrassed if i was the original designer.
You put the Ironman inside the hulkbuster wrong, in his video he shows you the way you have to do it. If it’s not prepped right it won’t work.
Bro called it *Flat*😂
Lego had one job and they fucked it up
I'm wondering, do those two withers busterie walk normally, all parts are movable? Can I make animations with it?
not with the legs
Original is better
NO it is not
Time to get that vision checked hoss.
