Talking Attakus Hulk ships out today!

I will be the happy owner of the Hulk Attakus statue in about 7-10 days.

Can't wait!!!

You'll love it! Attakus Hulk is one of the "centerpieces" in my collection.
(it is made up of all "centerpieces" actually)

Where'd you end up having to get yours from? Mine came from Bavaria.

I was going to say, what isn't a centerpiece of your collection?

Here are pics of my Hulk for reference:









IMHO, he is hands down, the best hulk statue made. Better than the Bowen.
Better than Hard Hero too, but that one is now second, based on pictures.

And well you should!

It totally blows away any other Hulks to date.

I loved the Hulk movie and I've been wanting a movie statue for a long time. This one just doesn't do anything for me. The size looks cool, but the likeness sucks, IMO. I would be all over this if I liked the likeness. I think one of the figures had a better likeness:







Was this their reference material???:

Exclamation

Come come now... Who can honestly say that the Bowen Hulk
statue likeness and finish is all that great? Check out this picture:



Now compare the musculature sculpting accuracy, overall perfect finish
and facial features, and the Attakus is SO much better it isn't even a
close comparison (for me).

On the Bowen Hulk, the whole abdominal and pectoral region is "off".
Muscles wouldn't look like that at all. The striations and form are not
correct, and that is enough to distract me when seeing that statue.

This is NOT to impune the effort and work put into the Bowen Hulk(s)
at all, as the sculptors are still totally friggin' awesome, but for me, the
Attakus Hulk is the single best Hulk statue ever made.

Best musculature, expression, and finish I've ever seen on ANY male human
form statue, period.

And the amazing thing is that it looks even BETTER in person than the
pictures I've posted!
