It actually IS easy being Green

To say that he is a Green, Mean Fighting Machine would probably be to indulge in a bit of over-the-top hyperbole, but still, I can’t quite help myself. You see, The Incredible Hulk is due out this Friday.

Well, if you want to get a jump on the film (and missed out on the 7-eleven cups), then you are going to want to hustle on down to Burger King, and snag yourself some of the new Hulk toys. From what I can see of the film’s trailer, it looks like it is going to be way better than the previous version (and there is a roomer that Robert Downy, Jr. as Iron Man will pop up in this film (in an uncredited appearance) as well.

Well, as you can see, I already did that and have scored my first pair (of six). They are kinda OK, but I’m going to want to see the others before I judge the entire line. The two that I have are the Mirror Morph Hulk, and the Hulk Smash toys. I’m thinking that the Abomination and Hulk figurines are cooler, but, I still need to see them.

Now, I have to still hunt down the missing three Iron Man toys that I missed. I should be acquiring the Ion Man 7-eleven cups this weekend when I head into the city to my upcoming CAG meeting. The Hulk (or is it the Iron Man) straws I purchased online, and should be arriving tomorrow (hopefully).

Ah well, the difficulties of attempting to be a fast food toy collector in the modern-day world. Still, as this is something that I do, it is something that I will continue to do, and well, it is a whole load of fun. Actually, I very often find that the fast food toys are often cooler than the ones that go on sale in the toy stores.

I'm hoping this Hulk movie is better than the first one. Took 42 freaking minutes before he turned green!

And I will probably grab some BK this week to get some Hulk-tastic toys.
