Thanks for sharing! This turned out amazing. I was really hoping someone would do this build because it looked so cool

Here's my HULC suit parts modelled by RPF member 'Old Skool Effects'. The hero suits have fully articulating spines that are able to move with the wearer. Each plate has 3 hinges and one arm joint with full rotation.
This is $80 worth of Shapeways parts assembled onto 2 back plates I molded from the originals. The rest of the spine and pistons are screen used parts.
The full spine without the vertebrae at its base is made up of over 150 individual parts. This is the most complicated prop I have ever owned.

I've loved the look of this suit ever since I first saw the trailer. This build is awesome, definitely living up to the original, love it.

Subscribers to this thread may have noticed there hasn't been any progress updates in a while. That is because I have quit my job, moved, and returned to school. I hope to complete the suit before summer, but with my class schedule I cannot make any promises. All the comments and support have been greatly appreciated. Thank you all for the overwhelming positivity. I won't forget this project or leave it behind.

Thanks for the praise made007. Your modified AK-47 prop is fantastic! I love that you went so far as to reproduce the air-burst rounds as well. I opted not to buy rod ends for my build. The PVC ones I made worked well and looked good. I wish my bearings rotated further, but I'm still happy with the result. I should be able to get back to work on it during Spring Break when classes are out. Maybe I can finish it during that week.

Odayaka, I really like the detail on pistons - the multiple thicknesses along the axis. Did you do that by inserting ever-so-slightly larger diameter PVC pipe on top of the base pipe for the piston? I don't think I've seen pipe of diameters only a few millimeters different from each other. Also, did you paint the shiny portion of the piston, or is it a thin metal sheet, or is the whole part a stainless steel pipe?

Excellent work. I know some university mechatronics students have copied what you have done here in their school project.
