I don't know if anyone has pointed this out anywhere else; probably. But I was just looking through coverage from Toy fair and found pictures of Hasbro's forthcoming Incredible Hulk movie tie-in line. Apparently, in the new movie the Hulk will still be bothered by the military in the form of a specialist Hulkbusters unit. And Hasbro has apparently decided to cut a few costs in making figures of the puny humans...

Sgt. Bazooka/Grand Slam torso and Sand Viper helmet? (http://tf08.superherotimes.com/showphoto.php?photo=634&size=big&cat=)

Rollbar/SAW Viper body, DTC Low-Light rifle? (http://tf08.superherotimes.com/showphoto.php?photo=632&size=big&cat=)

Both of them at another angle (http://tf08.superherotimes.com/showphoto.php?photo=111)

This guy looks the same scale but might be a non-poseable part of that action-feature base (probably flips into the air or something). (http://tf08.superherotimes.com/showphoto.php?photo=116)

Hulkbuster Humvee... (http://tf08.superherotimes.com/showphoto.php?photo=121)

Retooled for an action feature? Unless it's the Hulk himself who does all the work... (http://tf08.superherotimes.com/showphoto.php?photo=122)

And there's that Sgt. Bazooka/Grand Slam body again! (http://tf08.superherotimes.com/showphoto.php?photo=115)

I forsee a lot more custom Night Ops teams showing up in people's pics by the summer... And another thing that could work out in our favour is the fact that movie tie-in toys more often than not hang around warming pegs then end up on clearance within a year...!

Then someone in marketing will think eveyone is buying them for the Hulk license... and they'll make more Hulk stuff... :rolleyes:

Good to see O-ring re-tools, and that will be great when they sit on clearance somewhere...

I hope the stickers, or the painting, or whatever it is, on that Humvee is easily removable, or can be painted on leaving no trace, because those are probably being sold here in Spain when the film hits, so I can buy it and make it Joe :D

Whenever I hear that stupid ad for Overstock.com and hear the spokesperson say: "It really is all about the O!" now I think of Craig and Frank and laugh out loud... :D
