View Full Version : GSX Hulk 018

Suddenly there's a 300 pt Hulk at #18 in the GSX gallery. It's listed as an SR despite the number, but based on the SP namings and only having the "Monster" keyword it doesn't fit what I'd expect of a "War" Hulk.

Where did this info come from? This is what's there:
gx018 U Hulk
Team: No Affiliation
Range: 0 :bolt:
Points: 300
Keywords: Monster

(Speed) Hulk Smash!: Hulk can use Leap/Climb and Charge

(Attack) Leave Hulk Alone!: Hulk can use Quake and Super Strength

(Defense) Stop Hitting Hulk!: Damage dealt to Hulk is reduced to 1. This power cannot be countered or ignored.

I'd be disappointed by the lack of at least a Defenders keyword, as this is very obviously the childlike Hulk state and that's how he was during his main Defenders years. It should at least be an option.

On the other hand, I'm not expecting this to turn out to be accurate. Is it an odd joke someone managed to hack into the gallery?

Someone submitted it...and someone took it seriously?

I think its a fraud. I could be wrong

I don't think that is official. No idea where it came from or how it got approved though.

Interesting hulk. I don't know that that dial is worth 300 points. For my money I would go with green scar. Anyone can hurt him for nearly the whole dial.

It's "Worldbreaker" the name Hulk took near the end of World War Hulk

Yeah, it struck me as unofficial, too. It looks like someone's Dreams & Desires piece... though even there it's not quite right.

I popped into the Gallery, was pleased to see the updates made but saw there were 12 now, then I spotted Hulk. When I saw no thread on it I thought it a good idea to point it out.

So?

It isn't in GSX (we've seen the leaked poster). This is obviously someone's idea of a joke...

Is it possible he's #58 in the set and the last quad-base?

Right. The only spots it could (barely conceivably) be in the set would be as a bizarre chase or as a non-theme 6th piece for the Super Booster figures, either of which would be wildly unlikely and somewhat disappointing.

So, I'm definitely thinking it's a joke, though it is worrisome if it means someone's hacked into the gallery.

or someone submitted the dial and it accidentally got in there with the rest of the figures being stuck in there

Even if he is, and I HIGHLY doubt that he is, we've seen nothing official: no WK posts, no leaked cards/dials from a convention, no interviews, nothing.

This dial is pure fiction.

And thank goodness for that.

I take it that Typhon is working on the gallery even now... or else I just never noticed the "Upcoming", "Modern Age" and "Golden Age" markers riding atop the set list.

Disregarding this odd Hulk bit for a moment, HCR just keeps getting better!

You caught me while I was in the middle of approving the recently submitted dials. It's been removed now. Thanks for the heads up though. Thanks!

It's also possible a change has been made or the numbering is wrong and this is the dial for the 6th figure with an extra large sculpt.

Thanks again for all the effort that goes into the site.

I'm glad (for whatever it's worth) that I posted the gallery code for the dial into the OP for the record. Is there anything we should know about where the dial info came from?

Something tells me we know who submitted this dial :cheeky:

That hulk is pretty awesome though, I have to say.

The lack of Willpower or :d-indomitable: and can be outwitted and that stupid defense power which allows a fig with a damage value of 1 to hurt the hulk make this a 300 point P.O.S.

Hulk needs that Defense power tho... Ulik's power scattered throughout his dial!!!

I agree its useful special power but he needs less of it and more Invul and Imperv.

(aware this isn't real)

I'm glad it's a fake. That is horrible dial design and a total lack of creativity in the special powers.
