Lego Iron Man MK4 Bust Gets Prime Day Discount

Lego sets can get expensive, but Marvel fans can snag a limited-time deal on the Lego Marvel Iron Man MK4 Bust during Amazon Prime Day 2026. Normally priced at 60, the kit is just 48 as part of the sale, which runs June 23 through June 26. See at Amazon The 436-piece set is based on Tony Stark's suit from Iron Man 2 and Iron Man 3 and stands around 6.5 inches high when complete. You're not just building the exterior of this Iron Man suit, however. The completed set features retractable shoulder canons, two adjustable flaps on its back, and a posable head. The set also includes a display plate and Iron Man minifigure. According to Lego, the Iron Man MK4 Bust is meant to be a more adult-focused Lego product that can be put on a shelf or used as a centerpiece on a coffee table. Still, kids should get a kick out of the shoulder cannons and rotating head. The set could be a fun way to pass the time until Avengers: Doomsday hits theaters later this year--although Robert Downey Jr. will be playing Dr. Doom rather than Iron Man in that movie. The Lego Marvel deal just one of many great deals available on Amazon right now, so make sure you stay looped in on GameSpot's coverage of the best Prime Day deals on other Lego sets, video games, PC hardware, and more.
