This one: http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemPic.asp?M=pm001? or any of these: http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemPic.asp?M=pm025 http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemPic.asp?M=pm029 http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemPic.asp?M=pm015 ?
Nope, didn't think so. Hulk is an almost entirely new mold, the only parts that look like they're recycled from earlier figures are the hands, which were used for the "Giant troll" from the Castle sets. Do us all a favor and do a 2 minute search before making claims on teh interweebs.
I don't want to believe these are real, I mean, I understand there being stickers on prototypes, but this is lego and comic con, couldn't they at least put them on straight?
July 21 2011 at 4:42 PM Report abuse Permalink -1 rate up rate down ReplyOnly sad thing is that they're fleshies (flesh-toned instead of bright yellow), limiting the possibilities for part-swapping with regular sets. Stupid fleshies. Of course I'll still buy them all...

The DC figures look alright, but Jeez the marvel ones look like cheep bootlegs... (I hope the photo's of the marvel ones are prototypes, because if that is the finished product ewwwwww)

Wow the Captain America one looks really rough. Are those stickers for the face, chest and shield?
July 21 2011 at 7:56 AM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyYeah, I wonder why they didn't just do a helmut like they did for Batman.
July 21 2011 at 9:37 AM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyIts a prototype that they threw together for the show. They've already done Batman LEGO figures in the past so they already had those things to work with.

I think Hulk would be far cooler (cuter) simply being a regular sized figure. And why is Batman smiling? :p

It's Frank Miller's Batman. He thinking about how much he loves being the goddamn Batman.

All of the Marvel figures are rough prototypes. They'll all look a lot better by the time the sets are on the shelf next year.
