I like that Baron Zemo, but not enough to brave the nightmare that is SDCC and probably not enough to go all-out to get one of the two or three packs that Hasbro Toy Shop puts up after the show. I've always been partial to the villains that got Secret Wars figures.

Awesome.

Yikes! Hope that the comic pack version of the new hulk is a close color match to the first single carded MU Hulk, other wise I have no use for the figure. The sculpt looks great, but the figure just looks too small.

That "Masters Of Evil" pack looks AWESOME!!
Definitely will need to get at least two of those. (if at all possible that is)

These will go nicely with the ML Fantomax from the second ML wave. Now I just need a similarly colored Deadpool and I'll have a great Legends scale Uncanny X-Force team.

I think DP might be in Wave 3 or 4. It just occurred to me that X-Force might be in that wave. That or as a variant.

The card art for wave 3 shows X-Force colors Deadpool, so yup. Hope I can get that Legends set after the show. Looks like Wolvie has plenty of new tooling, and Archangel uses the awesome Wv2 Cap body, so yeah, I want these.

I dunno why it's important to color-match that *hideous* first MU Hulk since that's never been any shade of green I've ever seen the Hulk be; but having played with the new Hulk (a coworker got the 4pack for his son and brought the Hulk to work to let me see); I can confidently say your Hulk collection will blow chunks if you lack this fig. I can't see or imagine a single solitary quality, issue, or factor that first Hulk has over this one (or the First Appearance one, either).

Bulk.
The first Hulk has better upper body bulk than any other MU Hulk figure since. It's far from "perfect" but I'm infinitely more pleased with the figure after giving it a new head, and the only other issue I have with it is the legs. If the new comic pack version has a close match to the skin tone, it will make for a fairly simple operation to give the new (better range of motion and longer) legs to the better bulk of the first version's upper body.
As far as the color goes I like the color of the first Hulk much more. It looks like flesh with a green tint to it, and more closely resembles his movie appearances, in comparison to the GREEN figures they've done, like the new one and the World War Hulk.

A'ight, I can see the bulk issue, but I don't see you being happy with this new fig if bulk is your primary factor. The color's are nothing alike that I can see, and the hip engineering on that first Hulk is like how they do the shoulders and will not be an easy re-fit to put the new legs into/onto the old body. Your best bet would be to cut-n-paste at the waist line, but I fear the hip joints go up into the abdomen beyond the waist so even that might be problematic. There's also the very diff texture they've put on the new one that's absent on the old one. If you have WWH, this new one's basically that fig with a new head and legs; so you should be able to see the diffs in skin texture.

Bottom line; I don't see this fig making you happy, m'man.

Picked up the Avengers line Skrull, and in my opinion even with the reduced articulation it's more fun than the MU Skrull.

Your opinion is correct. It's a fun figure. Gonna completely redo my Super Skrull custom now - loving that head sculpt.

Never picked up the MU Skrull, as he wasn't that easy to find, and I wasn't big on the body they used. The Avengers line one, though, is awesome. Totally worth the money, which it takes a lot to say, considering how much those figures are.

I got one today also, after Kilcarr convinced me on it. Found plenty at a Target, with no Hawkeyes or Blackwidows, and I agree. Great figure that is lacking articulation, but that doesn't effect it at all.

I took out the MU Skrull and can use them as two seperate Super Skrulls.

Precisely what I was planning. And looking at the picture of the 1st appearance Hulk, his sculpting and color looks very similar to the first Hulk.
I may try the 1st Hulk with new head, for the upper, new Hulk "pants" for the hips and thighs, and the 1st appearance Hulk from the knees down.

Thanks for info on the Hulk construction AV, hopefully the waist line can be smoothly seperated without the hip joints being an issue.


I also have to agree with everyone about the Avengers Skrull.
My son picked one up and I am now planning to replace my MU versions.
Great figure!

There's a comic pack coming soon that has the new Hulk in colors that look closer to the first MU Hulk. Not sure just how close, but closer.
