Saw an ad for this tonight on Cartoon Network. I have to admit I never thought I would see the day when they would have a singing and dancing Hulk figure.
You can buy this at TRU and then go to your local comic shop and get a Marvel Zombies Hulk with rotting flesh and exposed brain. It's called marketing synergy.
We were at Wal*Mart and my 2 year old, Davey, wanted it and then Hulk "put his right arm in" and punched him in the cheek. After that happened a few times Davey was done with it. It's a cute toy. My son calls Hulk, "Huck". It's adorable.
We all hate it now, but in the year 2038, there will be a entire web-site (the future equivalent of course) where gobs of thirty and forty year olds will wax poetic on how this was the greatest toy ever made! Right up there with the "Twinkle Toes Captain America and Jammin' Jimmy T Kirk figures (due out for their respective new films in 2010 and 2009).
Some crazy old coot will even spend his life savings making basement reproductions of these figures, along with the ones everyone wished were made--"Footloose Flash, Jonn Jonnz: The Martian Moonwalker, and "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Punisher...WITH EXTREME PREJUDICE!"
Stan has been parodying his own creations for decades.
Now it's in the toy aisles in this updated technological form.
Good for Hulk!
