Mego would have put it on a midget Hulk body, otherwise I bet a 70s version would have looked a lot like this.

Swamp Thing is the figure of the year. They actually used Stephen Bissette's art for the printed suit. Freaking AMAZING!!

Love the swamp thing headsculpt but I was hoping for something more innovative than a real tree printed suit.

Is Swamp Thing on a new 9” body or something? If so, that’s pretty interesting. Or is it the Hulk body? I might be confused by what I’m seeing.

So happy to finally see Swamp Thing!!!!

That looks to me like the Grodd Bod.

Oh, ok. Is that different than their Hulk body?

They have two types on their site and at the very least the hands are different. I have never seen a Grodd nekkid to say more.

It looks like the same body they used on Meteor Man, if so, he's really great. Stands well and holds a pose.

This is exactly why I keep saying you need more nudity in your videos. We need to see it all.

I think FTC actually improved the run of these bodies… the original Grodd I received was a complete mess of mismatched parts, and when I contacted them, they sent a replacement body that was constructed differently. The purple monkey came with the revised version too. I wouldn't have picked this for Swamp Thing for the best proportions, but it's also not the worst option (anymore) in their product line.

A lightbulb just went off in my declining minds and I emailed Anthony to see which body it will be. I'll share his response once I have it.

same hands the Scooby Doo creeper has, must be the same Hulk modified body

Swamp Thing looks amazing, and I always love the customs... but somebody needs to explain to me the 1979 ad! Is there actually a line of army vehicles out there in Super Joe / Mego scale, and if so, how hard are they to find for sale on the interwebs?

That was fast - yes, same muscular body as Meteor Man and Grape Ape.
