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! |

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