"TV Incredible Hulk" Mego Action Figure Custom! Lou Ferrigno Lives!

I had lots of fun creating my own customized Mego action figure based on the 70s live-action TV version of the ever-incredible Hulk! Click each image to enlarge!










Above ten images: Using a wonderful fan-made head sculpt (found years ago on eBay),
one made to resemble Lou Ferrigno in the role of the Hulk, I applied a basic
green coat, followed by some light overhead highlights, and lower
darker shading. Next came detailing  the hair, eyes, brows and teeth!



Above: The finished complete figure! Using Mego's basic 1975
Hulk body (after it was painted and detailed to match the new head),
the look is complete!





Above: Some gloss paint was added to the eyes and teeth,
creating an even more realistic look!

 








Above: The figure on its own custom card! I love to create graphics
that are very bold and direct, like Mego's original packaging from
the early 70s!

as my base figure for this customization!

Awesome find on that head sculpt. It makes the original look even more cartoonish.
