From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum.

We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Lego has announced the latest entry into its Marvel line of products, with a highly detailed take on Iron Man’s “Hulkbuster” suit – and the name is certainly fitting for the 4,000-piece build.
The Hulkbuster suit, also called “Veronica” by Iron Man (aka Tony Stark), featured in the 2015 film Avengers: Age of Ultron as a failsafe against the Hulk, if he ever gets out of control, which (spoiler alert) he does.
Not only is this Lego set large enough to feature as a prominent display piece, it’s also large enough to fit another Lego Iron Man suit inside it, much like in the film.
In line with Lego’s range of other collectable sets, such as The Mandalorian razor crest set and Black Panther bust, it’s a highly intricate build with adult fans of Lego in mind.

What’s most interesting about the Hulkbuster set is that it’s designed to be paired with another toy from its range with the more-modest Iron Man posable figurine.
It’s fully jointed, meaning it can strike a number of different heroic poses, as well as having a light-up brick located in its chest to mimic Iron Man’s own arc reactor.
While it’s designed for kids aged nine and up, it also makes a suitable display piece on its own and even comes with its own plaque.
