Brickset - Interview with Jamie Berard, Design Manager for 10269 Harley-Davidson Fat Boy

Found a rider that fits!

 

BrickieB, oh, nice!

That is the .... The Hulkbuster: Ultron Edition, right?

1 more reason to try to fit it in my.... budget.

Yep, that's the one. Don't wait too long, it'll be out of stores soon :)

My wallet blames you! :)  Or rather...... LEGO can thank You! I ordered the Ultron Edition set.

wording correction.

I wanted to see how the new HD Fat Boy would look with chrome silver and flat silver parts instead of bley before ordering from bricklink. So I spent the last 3 days building it up in Stud.io using only @Sariel speed build video and part list, stopping frame-by-frame to get a good look at the parts. I don't think full chrome would hurt this LEGO model even though the real motorcycle has some satin chrome finish.
Here is a short video I made: 

and some gifs:




At this time the rims, fat back tire and 28 tooth gear are not available in Stud.io. But I kind of like the spoke design wheels better for a chopper and the designer also used black ones in one of his prototypes.
Sorry about the floating renders, it's due to rotated wheels.

Yep, chrome looks good on it :)

And seriously, love the hulkbuster riding it! Fits with the FatBoy name too !

I wonder if anyone would be up to building this:

The rims are obviously based on the Harley-Davidson ones, and thanks to the Speed Champions sets, there are enough Ford-related prints/stickers available.

BTW, is anyone here aware of LEGO Ideas' BUILD AN EPIC RIDE FOR THE FUTURE! contest? Apparently one of my all-time favorite builders has submitted an entry of his own, and I hadn't been previously aware that he was on Ideas!

Bumping this thread up for one question;

Anyone tried building a sidecar to go with it?

Sweet & groovey.

The front wheel on 10269 Harley Davidson looks much nicer with the new tire used on the Ducati's rear wheel!
Though clearance from the front fender is reduced, there's no interference!
