The Lego Hulkbuster is part of Lego’s increasing popular Lego sets aimed at adults. The massive figure, which contains thousands of pieces when fully built, is usually $550. But now, with some sales magic, it can be yours for just $385. That’s a discount of 30%, and savings come to $165. This, when combined with the rarity of the Lego Hulkbuster going on sale, makes this one of the most enticing Lego deals going on right now. Tap the button below to see it for yourself, or keep reading to see what the set includes and our take on the product.
The Lego Hulkbuster is a piece of work (or “pieces of work” if you think about it, the set has 4,049 of them) that stands an imposing 21 inches tall. Its stance stretches to some 19 inches wide, though the armored upper body is posable, allowing you to set the actual pose of the figure. This includes letting you show off light-up pieces that decorate its palms by opening up the fingers and tilting the wrists back. One cool feature is the spacious interior of the Lego Hulkbuster. It can actually encompass the Lego Iron Man Figure that’s miraculously still available at Walmart despite being discontinued from Lego proper. However, there’s a classic Lego dude in the style of Tony Stark to use with it if you don’t have both sets.
Of course, the value in something like this comes with the reward of the completion of the project. When you divide the sale price by the number of pieces, you see each Lego comes to around 9.5 cents, with every penny accounting for both the value of the piece and the value of the joy of assembly. This set comes with a traditional paper assembly instruction manual for that classic construction feel.
If this appeals to you, you’ll want to tap the button below. That’s where you’ll find the Lego Hulkbuster on sale for 30% off. Again, this brings the price from a lofty $550 to $385, saving you $165. However, if this doesn’t get your Marvel itch fully sated, be sure to check out the best Marvel games of all time, where (you guessed it) LEGO Marvel Super Heroes definitely makes an appearance.
Acer’s Predator Atlas 8 finally has a US release date and price, several months after the company first showed off the handheld in May. The highlight is the Intel Arc G3 Extreme chip inside, which has been adopted by only a couple of other consoles besides the Atlas 8. This version will go on sale exclusively at Best Buy on November 1 for $1,299.99.
Acer originally said the Atlas 8 would arrive in North America in October, but left pricing open at the time. The launch came amid the ongoing DRAM crunch, which has made memory more expensive across the PC industry and complicated pricing for hardware makers.
Gaming laptops and I have a complicated relationship. One of my first gaming rigs was an Acer Predator that was already outdated when I bought it. I was a broke college kid, and that was the best I could afford. So trying out high-end gaming laptops is always fun. But ASUS' ROG Zephyrus G14 is a lot more than a laptop that can run AAA games. It is portable, so you're not lugging around a 2.5kg machine everywhere you go. It is built well, none of that plastic chassis, and can even function as a normal laptop outside of just gaming.
Google Play is borrowing one of the Nintendo Switch’s most useful little tricks. A new Sidekick tool called Playbacks captures a short clip after something interesting has already happened, sparing players from running a screen recorder throughout an entire game.
Playbacks is part of Google Play Store v53.8 and keeps saved clips on the phone. Google first announced it earlier this month, but the new Play Store update marks its arrival for players. Anyone who has watched a perfect win vanish because the record button came too late already understands the appeal.
