    Solomon Grundy

    My daughter has been after me for a long time to create Solomon Grundy. Well thanks to Edgaar, he supplied us with a Famous Covers Hulk body for a good price!

    It took me a good deal to get Solomon Grundy to look like himself and get rid of traces of the Hulk.

    I created the suit myself. I cut open and resewed a "Dinner Date for two Ken tuxedo" and shredded it to fit Solomon like he crawled out of the swamp himself.

    His shoes I made from scuptely since there is really nothing that would fit those giant feet.

    My daughter has been jumping around for days while he has been drying, "Can I touch him? Can I touch him?"

    Not sure why my camera makes his eyes look like they are cockeyed when I compressed the JPG but they are not...

    Finally, this Sunday morning she was able to have Solomon invade the Hero Central headquarters...

        I love making stuff for my kids...
        My Dad made me loads of Action-Man stuff.

        Those hands are really cool...better than the Hulks.

          Very, very cool. Those Famous Covers Hulk's can come in handy for customizing. I guess loose figs are around 10-15 dollars on Ebay. You definitely Grundy-ized him for sure. That second picture looks like he's giving Alan Scott a pat on the back...before he rips out his spine.

          Well done figure.

          Now, somebody needs to get the build a Grundy figure from the newest DC line and send the head to Austin for casting. If you guys haven't seen it, it's a beatiful work of art, even for a undead guy's noggin.

                    The FC Hulk body works well for Grundy! Cool! The Mego Hulk body would've been too short (although I know people have used it before).

                      Cool, I did the same thing. One suggestion for the boots, I dremelled down the feet so I could get them into 1/6th boots. The kind that laces up really work for Grundy.

                        That's a cool Grundy. Definitely different than most.

                              He fits in quite well. He looks better as SG than he does as Hulk.
