Me HULK.

Me angry at military who want to kill HULK. HULK big and not afraid. HULK's
2nd and 3rd toes equal, so not only is HULK smart but STRONG. ;] HULK likes
orange. Boys and girls, HULK is also cool because me is easy for you to
bring to life.
-----------------
Hallo-
The HULK was inspired by DaveE's Rock Golems and the sheer mass of the
Incredible character. I thought about creating a Golem like Dave's but then
I realized that the HULK was feasible. I never read comics but I have seen
the movie trailers and some artwork. I spent an hour or so creating version
1 Wednesday afternoon. I was informed this (Thurs) afternoon while showing
a preview that HULK was naked. [HULK]HULK no like being nakey.[/HULK] I
really like the eyes of the small frog in the Wild Collection set except I
realize that even though his bulge, those would not do. I also went back to
the first design of the shoulder blades (seen in 1.0; 1.1 added a 1x3 plate
so as to eliminate the horizontal "hole"). I rebuilt him late Thurs night,
early Friday.[1]
My rendition of The HULK is made soley from the parts of a single Wild
Collection (http://guide.lugnet.com/set/4101). (Therefore, for $30 you can
have your very own! ;-) I designed the HULK with respect to the anatomy of
a minifig. Arms and legs move in the same manner, except HULK has movable
feet and instead of rotating hands, movable elbows.

Cool!
The pecs seem a little odd though? :)
Here's a few pics of Lou Ferrigno (that played the Hulk):

I think I have to fiddle around a little with my <set:4101>.

I'll await that and perhaps make an update to my post.

Tobbe,
Thanks, glad you like him! I would agree that the pecs are a little odd but
I was going for the comic drawn or CGI movie character dimensions. The 2x2
round plates could have been placed vertically if hinge plates were used
(there are enough) but I wanted his fists/open hands to be vertical, so that
pretty much determined that result.
Yes, I did update the folder with better pics. I need to break out the
tripod though because even the new one of HULK lifting up a vehicles is a
bit blurry. I also just threw together a transformation phase mockup I did
in Photoshop (just for the effect--it needs MUCH work).

Perhaps you can attach an 1x2 plate with the studs out and let the studs make
the pecs? I don't know how the plate that is there now is attached.

I think I understand what you're saying. I'll do some testing later this
week. However, I'm thinking that a stud will not be large enough to
designate a pec. I think this pic:
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=397895 shows that connection.

Nope, the HULK have larger pecs then a stud at that scale, but at least he
would have two :)
To better explain, in your present version there is a 1 x 2 plate of some sort
facing bottom out in the pec region. If this could be replaced with a 1 x 2
plate facing studs out it would help suggest pecs.
And I studied that photo before claiming I don't see how it's done :)

Joe,
Thanks! Glad you like him. Yeah, the movement is limited but for the size
and proportions I think it fits well. HULK says make HULK for yourself so
he can crush bad army men. ;] (<--HULK wink)

Hey,
This is awesome. I especially like the picture with him lifting the truck over
his head.

Bruce,
HULK appreciate words very much. ;] (<--HULK wink.)
Thanks a lot! I have updated the gallery with a pic of HULK lifting a jeep
(my closest military vehicle at the moment) but it too came out a bit
blurry. Need to set up a tripod.
I know that the official action figures are pretty much the same (not much
you can do with the guy) but I would think there would be enough diversity
of atmospheres/landscapes in the movie to do something like your Chem Grad
school or new Spidey sets??

Hulk cute. Me like Hulk. Hulk is good. Like Hulk head. Like talking like
Hulk. Always watched Hulk. Hulk is fun. Hulk upload take long time. Hulk
from Wild Collection is good. Hulk.
Idea for Hulk: need minifig Dr. Banner to stand next to Hulk. Need image of
Dr. Banner getting miffed. Need to photoshop green eyes onto minifig head to
show begining of metamorphisis. Hulk smash pesky reporter. Hulk.

HULK like that you like HULK. ;] HULK wanted main picture to show more but
HULK not aware of upload delays.
Much thanks for comments! HULK just blushed (no wait, blushing is not in
HULK's nature).
Idea for Hulk is good...I just threw together a mockup of the metamorphosis
(had to merge pics from Peeron). The image needs a LOT of work but the
effect is there. I will work on that some more. Will also work on scenes
with Hulk.

Andrew,
For someone only having seen th preview images and some artwork of the
Hulk and limiting yourself to only a select set of parts, you did a very
nice job in capturing the essence of the Hulk. I would be curious to see
what you could do after seeing the movie and expanding the piece selection
(Perhaps a She-hulk is in order :)
Keep Building,
Jim F.

Jim,
Thank you very much. I am really happy with the result given the
parameters. I wanted to be able to create him from one set if possible so
that he could be easily "purchased"; I'm extremely glad that you think his
essence is present.
I already have some ideas for "set" setups just from some of the newer parts
this summer. Hmmm....She-hulk...iNteresting...I know I can go searching for
images, etc (which I'll probably have to do) but are you familiar with her
proportions in relation to those of Hulk?
