Hulk Retro Wave

I never got War Hulk because I hated the head sculpt. It’s how I feel about the toothy head sculpt from Max Hulk.

One of my favourite Hulk facial expressions but also one of my most hated Hulk haircuts. I don’t think there has ever been one that nailed both the face and hair for my liking, although over time I feel like TB ML wave 1 Hulk is an outstanding effort.

Upcoming Abomination is in Hulk specific packaging. Could be a sign of more to come.

Gotcha.
Coincidentally, I just updated the preorder thread this morning!
I was really hoping there was an amazing new reveal or something. I seriously can't wait to see those rumored retro Hulk figures.
Heck, I'd even settle for a vague-tweet teaser from Dan.
 
What I want to be made into a Marvel Legends Hulk line are the following.

Leader (90s cartoon)
Gargoyle (90s cartoon)
Zzzax (90s cartoon)
Wendigo (classic)
Madman (2003 video game)
Flux (2003 video game)
Ravage (2003 video game)
Half-Life (2003 video game)
Mercy (Ultimate Destruction)
U-Foes (2008 video game)
Bi-Beast (2008 video game)
Mecha-Hulk (2004 Toybiz)
Absorbing Man (classic purple pants)

Great list! I’d probably buy every character there bar Leader and Mecha Hulk. But I’d go for comic versions of the bottom half of your list and add on

Psyklop
Tyrannus

It just shows that Hulk is sorely short of villains to whale on, which is one reason I’m a bit disappointed by the rumoured line-up. One villain we’ve already had umpteen iterations of, plus several Hulk variants. This would have been the perfect outlet for a Madman or Bi-Beast.

Personally, I would love to see a new and improved Bruce Banner.

I never liked or bought the one Hasbro released in that 2-pack with grey Hulk. He looks like a 14 year old.
I actually still display the original anemic Bruce from the Toybiz Hulk Classics line. And he seriously sucks.
 
My top wants are a classic Wendigo, Bi-Beast, Zzzax, Glob, and Doc Samson.

The 80th two-pack Hulk is honestly the last version of the character I need, unless they gave me an even Trimpe-ier headsculpt and maybe a Marie Severin portrait:

My perfect wave of four would be:
Smart Hulk
Zzzax
Red Harpy
A-Bomb

Definitely would pick these up. Although, I'd add Rick Jones somewhere. How, have they never done this guy ? He's responsible for the Avengers forming and later the Rangers. He is an honorary Avenger. He's Bruce Banner's longest running sidekick/ally. He was a partner to Steve Rogers briefly. They could do a first appearance Hulk and Rick two-pack or Rick and Mar-Vell or Rick & Genis-Vell or Rick and Harpy (Betty Ross).
 
Yep, I've wanted another dedicated Hulk wave basically ever since the Fin Fang Foom wave, but the leaked list leaves a lot to be desired.

I agree with a lot of the recommendations that others have already made. Rick Jones A-Bomb (or any Rick Jones) is a Top 10 want for me. I'm now fully expecting we'll get his new symbiote look before anything else.

Zzzax. U-Foes. Bi-Beast. Lyra. Red King. The Warbound. Instead it's retreads of what has been done before. Hopefully this wave will sell well enough that they'll do another wave with the characters that many of us actually want.
