As you can see from the Gray Hulk Premium Format Figure, before he was mean and green, the Hulk was gray and… ummm… well, he was gray.
When the Hulk first appeared in 1962, the art of mass producing colored comics wasn’t as refined as it is today. Stan Lee wanted the Hulk to be gray but he was never the same tone, even appearing green every now and then. Marvel decided to stick with green so Gray Hulk is a bit of a novelty, even though he did return to that skin color during his Joe Fix-It days.
The 20-inch-tall figure features all the classic imagery Hulk fans expect – the rage-filled snarl, the shredded shirt (which can be removed), and the bowl haircut that Mr. Anger seems to inexplicably get every time Bruce Banner loses his temper.
The Gray Hulk Premium Format Figure will be available January 2015 but it can be pre-ordered now for $549.99 (or for as little as $61.87/mo) at Sideshow Collectibles.
