LEGO SET 76327 - Alternate build | Iron Man MK4 Bust
LEGO Set 76327-1 – Iron Man MK4 Bust: Alternate & Mod Build Possibilities
Iron Man’s MK4 Bust (76327-1) is a display set that begs to be customized. With its mix of bold reds, hot-rod golds, and sculpted curves, the parts palette is perfect for tweaking armor lines, smoothing out the faceplate, and experimenting with plating techniques around the collar and shoulders. If you enjoy iterating on official busts, this one gives you a compact canvas to practice symmetry, paneling, and those tiny angle changes that make a helmet feel “right.”
Beyond pure aesthetics, the build is a great playground for stability and attachment tricks. The layered slopes and brackets around the jaw lend themselves to subtle refinements, while the chest and stand offer room for tasteful upgrades—think tighter seams, cleaner transitions, and plaque or base improvements. If you’re into character variants, the MK4 geometry also converts beautifully into other armored looks (hello, gray-and-gunmetal re-skins) without losing that instantly recognizable Stark silhouette.
Below you’ll find community creations—both an alternate build (uses only 76327’s parts) and a mod build (may add extra parts). Together, they showcase how far this set can go: from a refined, sleeker Iron Man to a hard-edged War Machine re-imagining. Use them as-is, or take inspiration for your own tweaks—tighten gaps, sharpen lines, and personalize the base to match your shelf. If you’re feeling adventurous, try color-swapping accents, experimenting with layered tiles for a smoother brow, or subtly re-profiling the cheeks for a tougher stance. Small changes, big presence.
