Spidey has seen Red Hulk in person... He knows the greatness that is this statue.
Now it has been a few days I have really fallen in love with this statue. I always have to wait a few because I am always a little disappointed when I first get a statue because I have seen so many pics and the size no longer shocks me. So usually after three or four days I start to see the piece with new eyes..
This is the Hulk to own for me. If I could have only one this would be it. I love King Hulk but he is not Iconic Hulk. I love the Sculpt of the Comiquette but not the paint apps, I love the Hulk Maquette but he could use better paint details also.
This Hulk has it all. Great head sculpt (EX) great Body sculpt and pose, great paint apps and he is Iconic... Throw in the fact he is the largest Hulk and you have my Fav. Hulk ever.
I prefer it to the OG Hulk but I don't think it's as good of quality. If it had the paint apps of the OG Hulk and the EX head was not removable you would have the only Hulk you would ever need to own... AS is... It still might be the only Hulk you need to own.
9.5 out of 10... I will take off 1/2 a point because the paint is not as good as OG Hulk and the neck seam.
Otherwise Perfect!!
I agree with almost everything you said. For me, I would want the reg head permanent. I do not blame people for liking the ex, completely understand it, it's just not my style.
I also gave it a 9.5. The only thing keeping it from perfect is the neck seam, teeth on the reg, face texturing, and slight head/body miss-coloration. These are not big problems at all, but just enough to keep it from perfect. A couple years from now, after all the custom heads have come in to play... I may honestly consider picking a head to have permanently attached via customization. This would essentially eliminate the seam, color issue, and face texture issues if I chose a custom head... (Selling the remaining heads would pay for the customization I'm sure)
All in all. I would not trade this statue for anything in the world. If I absolutely need money, my sell order is:
Antman, hawkeye, black widow, kidney, spleen, and then my body (sexually). Cap and hulk ain't leaving!
Also, lastly... Who here has a face the exact same color as their body? I know I sure don't!
I'm going to have to concur with my homies here
Easily one of the most impressive Hulks to date because of it's size and paint app. The Shading striations through the muscles make him seem even larger. Even the small details in the base like the flattened pipes and destroyed Hulk Buster elements lend to the overall statue. Even though he's only rough 20" tall he dwarfs every thing else around him that's 1/4 scale.
Honestly the couple nitpicks, the neck seam/ the teeth on the reg head have been blown way out of proportion and aren't as noticeable as some made it seem.
He's a keeper.
Now I just need a modern Cap A and a nice Iron Man and my little Modern Avengers set up is complete....add Ghost Rider, and maybe Moon Knight but he's not essential, and I'll have all the Marvel Heroes I need.
