I anticipate a 2020 Hulk coming soon. You heard it here first!

I think you may be right. I joined the waitlist today and converted today. If they announce another hulk, I will order it. He’s my favorite character. Hoping sideshow attempts a hulkbuster as well, but no battle damage or very little.

XM version is really nice, but way too excessively large and expensive. And I don't want my Hulk looking up at the "gods", though it fits the narrative, which is too Shakespearean for me. And a Hulk sculpt not showcasing a mighty fist(?), is just wrong.

But I can envision a Martin Canale sculpt which will best it, easily. The master of hulking anatomy is on a role. Hulk and then Apocalypse!

No, not trying to start a war. Just wait, and watch
Im not much of a classic Hulk fan but Canale might just make me one I have many Canale sculpts including Odium, he definitely knows his way around giant muscle bound characters. However, if I did want a classic Hulk, the XM Transformation would satisfy. As for a size comparison, the XM base is monstrous for sure, especially with Bruce out front. But Hulk looks smaller than SSC Glad Hulk, based off the unboxing video XM put up. Especially in the legs and hands (comparing them to the unboxer's hands). Glad Hulks hands are nearly as large as mine and I'm a big guy. And only half an inch difference in overall hight.

Im all for more options though.

Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

What I meant as too big, was a reference to the composition as a whole, Banner, and base, never Hulk, as Hulk can never be too big. If XM Hulk was solely available, I may have committed. But then again, I need one Hulk, staring right at you, charging, fist swinging, detailed to the bone, but not over shredded, but huge, pissed. Canale masterpiece once again please.

I have the Thor piece and I think Hulk would go well with it. Wow Hulk is huge. I have nowhere to put it.

I have the XM transformation HULK coming. I can't wait for it to arrive. I've been waiting forever for a 1/4 classic green HULK that I like and as far as I'm concerned, XM nailed it! I simply do not trust sideshow to release a classic HULK anymore. I dislike both classic green 1/4 HULKs sideshow has released. I'm also convinced that even if by chance sideshow does release a classic HULK I do like, they'll just mess it up with a seam on his neck or wrist.

Even though the XM transformation HULK cost me a pretty penny, I already know it comes with no visible seams and looks phenomenal. So, picking it up was a no-brainer for me.

I was hoping to get some opinions from all the owners of this piece. I have the OG Gladiator and King Hulk and I'm strongly considering selling them to pick this guy up in their place. I just really love the way he looks with the Brimstone Thor and New Cap. So for everyone who has it in their collection, is he worth it? Or should I just stick with the OG pieces?

It depends on what your display plan is. If you are looking to display this Hulk with Brimstone Thor and New Cap then I highly recommending going for it!
Even as a standalone piece he is impressive, but you won't get the standing tall feeling like OG Gladiator and King Hulk.

If you have Thor:BoB then it's a no brainer IMO.
