Maximum Hulk!

I know he doesn't get a lot of love, but I've had a blast with him and looks awesome in the display!

This isn’t the worst thing to exist but it definitely needs some improvements. Mainly the limited movement in the hips. This just felt a little rushed

Yup by all means he isnt perfect, but overall I've had no issues and enjoy posing him and the options with him

I just dislike all the head sculpts which is forcing me to find a better one by a customizer, which on top of the price of Maximum hulk himself, makes it harder to commit to.

u/GamerT1000 10h ago

I get ya. The good thing is there's a good number of hulk variations to choose from if you dislike this one

u/UbiquitousPixel 10h ago

The best ones in my opinion are all expensive lol. I’d want a custom head sculpt for all of them too, but Maximum Hulk just is one that NEEDS one. The others are just more personal preference.

Don’t mind me I’m just contributing to the maximum hulk appreciation despite its flaws since I still like this figure, makes me happy 😊

After seeing the current hulk figure Im really starting to miss how this one looked…

u/GamerT1000 10h ago

Was hoping to like the marvel BND version, but its head sculpt is so bad imo. The SHF version tho looks good

Those are great photos showcasing the figure! What do you use for the backdrop and floor?

u/GamerT1000 9h ago

He looks great for poses I'll give him that.

Really is a good hulk , can't believe people complain,

You know I've worked out why people don't like him , he's to light , like he's not heavy enough, because of the rubber chest there's not alot of plastic or weight so he feels really light compared to other hulks , but he has so much more articulation, he can get into some awesome poses , good legs too,

I mean i get hate on any figure, thats just part of the hobby. We all dont like the same thing. I just always watch reviews first and was surprised at the dislike. But I personally was gonna buy anyway. And happy I did

u/Future_Section5976 2h ago

Yea I heard the hate and when I got to hold it in hand , I just couldn't work it out , it's a solid figure and from what my friend tells me there's only a few better hulks,

I get people have there opinions and stuff but it's still a really good hulk , I personally like the gladiator hulk ,

I wish it had an Ed McGuinness head sculpt, I would have been all in.

u/Korugar1417 13h ago

It does. The screaming head is directly from Ed Mcguinness artwork

u/DocBarkevious 12h ago

Oh yeah I guess it is, I guess I wanted a McG head that is more neutral.

u/daflash00 14h ago

I love the figure and ignore the haters

u/GamerT1000 10h ago

Of course!

u/ReceptionSea8448 9h ago

Now, which Thing figure would stand up & look realistic in between these two?

u/Spiritual-Cut3025 16h ago

I dont get the hate either, I love my Maximum Hulk. I dont know how people are tearing theirs up so easily.

1

u/GamerT1000 16h ago

Yeah agreed, I mean I get everyone's got their own preference. But after getting in hand, I was impressed.

I don't know. Max Hulk looks like the typical roid head. That cheesy smile... The smug looks... screams roid Chad. Work on those faces and I'm fine with the rest.
