EMCE Diamond Hulk?

I'll be surprised if they do Thor's modern look.

In every set we've seen so far the pattern has been: Repro of Mego vintage look, update of vintage look, vintage Secret Identity. Wolverine varies slightly in that his updated look is not the same as his "Mego" look, though his updated look is still set squarely in the Mego era rather than his current modern costume. I will be surprised to see any modern or current costumes in this line.

^^^And I hope they keep that format!!!^^^

Yes! Thor with beard and armor!!

I would want the simonson Thor too but it's probably will be his current modern look(black tunic,brown belt silver under armour)don Blake in scrubs and walking cane,and Megos Thor.now I wonder with the Megos Thor they will improve on the helmet to head.the head had a hole in the top for the helmet but I recall as a child it never fit in too snug.

Thor will be shown at New York Toy Fair on February 13th - if it even stops snowing here.

please No bearded Thor!

^ I'm with you. Lot of affection for Simonson's Thor

[samurainoir]

You heard the man!

Any preferences for Thor folks?

I'd like to see Bearded Thor and Simonson Armour as the extra outfit/head.



and he's not very exciting, but Old School Don Blake all the way. white coat and stick.

Why not just include the Bruce Banner clothes and head, even if the only body is the green "Hulked out" body? Surely collectors are either leaving these on card (which would look fine) or are supplementing with additional bodies.

That's actually a good point; it sounds like most folks are getting bodies for the additional pieces anyway. I'd definitely be on board for something like that, if Diamond would consider the option. They could even say the Banner head can go with the Hulk body if he's in mid transformation.

That's what I said too! I agree w/ Spytel; we already know we'll need additional bodies anyways, so I prefer a banner (flesh rotocast please) head & outfit to fit on a normal mego/Dr.Mego Caucasian body.

If/when they ever release a Hulk set, and based on the parameters set by Hasbro/Marvel, I'm guessing we'll get:
1) Repro Mego Hulk (on a green Dr. Mego muscle body, of course)
2) a new modern Hulk headsculpt and, hopefully, shredded shirt and pants
3) Smart Hulk head and suit (black tank top, brown pants and belt, and SHOES for the Hulk's feet). Might even have removable glasses like the Peter Parker head in the Spidey set. This would probably satisfy the Secret Identity requirement for the set, too.

Throw in accessories like extra hands, a Hulk-sized lab coat, and maybe some scientific equipment, and I could see this on the shelf.

Good points by both.

A grey Hulk like in Incredible Hulk 1 would need a minimal body suit since he had a ripped shirt. The tattered clothes could be sewn onto the grey suit. Or the mr. fixit route could be taken as Ed suggested.

[Krypt0nite]

I don't think red would work, as Red Hulk is a different character: the license only allows for one character per set if I understand it correctly.

Thor is already planned, as a prototype of the Mego repro Thor (sans helmet & possiblt hammer) has been shown at the last con.....probably SDCC? I think it was mentioned Iron Man was also planned, but nothing has been shown!

HULK, can't they do a repro hulk but on Docs bigger/better body in green, a banner head/outfit although it obviously wouldn't work on the included HULK body (I wouldn't care as an extra body would be needed anyways) & then the grey or red bodysuit & hands/feet. I'd possibly buy that!
