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?
