Solomon Grundy (DC Universe) Custom Action Figure
Custom #:42924
Name:Solomon Grundy
Custom Type:Action Figure
Toy Series:DC Universe
Creator:Jin Saotome  
Date Added:September 21, 2012
Base Figure:Marvel Select Hulk
Height:8.00 inches
"Tell me... when were you brought into this world? On what day did Slaughter Swamp expel your gruesome form into this plane of existence? TELL ME WHAT DAY YOU WERE BORN, SO THAT YOUR NAME MAY FIND ITS WAY INTO MANKIND'S NIGHTMARES!"

Solomon Grundy is one of the most powerful characters in all of DC with a might that has rivaled Superman's at times and a physique on par with Marvel's Hulk. That's probably why I chose the Marvel Select Hulk as the body base. Grundy's head came from a Gamma Strike Hulk with Aves Fixit Sculpted hair and chin, and the jacket from a 12" RoC Cobra Commander tailored to fit then tattered. Grundy's boots were sculpted over the feet using Aves Apoxie sculpt with real laces and he was given a rope belt. Various shades of grey were used for his flesh and a mucky wash detailing covers makes it appear he has just walked from the swamp. He follows the same BAF style as my Clayface for a larger DC Universe figure.

Hmmm, has he shown up in comics/shows recently? I have him and a few other 'large scale' type DC characters in the works. Well, was going to do a Killer Croc until the Arkham one came out.

Thanks! The trick to the boots is using a sponge to make impressions on the surface while the sculpt is still raw.

Heya FF! Definitely man, go for it! See if you can find an open hand that's MS Hulk sized so he can hold a log.

Yup, from an old commercial using Legion of Doom clips from Super Friends. Everyone is whining for toys like Batman and the rest have, but Brainiac just wants a decent pair of pants...as does Grundy!
