"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!

1982 "Don Bigley Meets The Hulk" Comic Strip! Albert Bigley Art! Bill Bixby? Marvel Comics?

Not sure if this was part of a trio of hand-drawn comic-strip newspaper ads for my father's tire shop, but here is my (age 17) own illustrated tale of Dad Don Bigley meeting the Incredible Hulk! Silly and inspired by Marvel's satire book NOT BRAND ECHH, this is one odd little story, coming off like a demented 70s "Hostess Fruit Pie" comics ad! I thought it was funny to depict my father as constantly being draped in heavy shadow, as if he was a mysterious figure pulling stings from behind the scenes! Click to enlarge if ya really must!

Albert Bigley THOR Original Art? Shirley Bigley Scripts! Bill Bixby Gets Zapped!


This HAS to be the oddest piece of art from my own archives I've ever run. Inspired by NOT BRAND ECHH, Marvel Comic's parody and humor magazine, I drew this little beauty, but left the word balloons blank, handing over the Stan Lee-like scripting chores to my Mom, Shirley! She took the ball and ran with it, giving Stan Lee a run for his money! You now get a 1980 titanic tale featuring Lou Ferrigno, Bil Bixby (then the stars, of course, of the TV series INCREDIBLE HULK), Arnold Schwarzenegger, and the Mighty Thor! Huh? Click to enlarge, if ya must!
