Life-size Iron Man Hulkbuster Suit 3D Printed

[Brian_Krassenstein]

Watch out, Tony Stark! James Bruton is gaining on the Marvel Comics franchise with his 3D printed creations and cosplay. His latest creation, in the finishing stages, is the Iron Man Hulkbuster suit, featuring a wide array of 3D printed parts that assist in creating a fully functioning suit developed so the wearer can step inside it and experience complete enclosure due to 3D printed panels that open and close with remote control. Complex electronics and systems with motors, pulleys, and panels make up the Hulkbuster which is nearly finished, as Bruton finishes up the design to close up the back, finish the thighs, and completely work out all the electronics, like a wi-fi hotspot, control by tablet or smartphone, and integration of joysticks for manipulation of the arms and hands.

I don't get the whole cos-play scene - but there's some pretty dedicated people making some amazing stuff.
