Revision as of 14:10, 7 November 2021
- The Thing is a human from Marvel.
The Thing says it's clobberin' time. First on the list is his Fantastic Four teammate Reed Richards for not designing him his own mech but rather reusing that of his long time rival, the Hulk.
Fiction
Combat Colin
The Thing attended Colin and Steve's Christmas party in the Combat Shed, where he was seen wearing a paper hat and hanging around the buffet with a Dalek. Christmas with Combat Colin
Toys
Crossovers
- Thing (Marvel,
2010)
- The Crossovers Thing was to have been a retool of the second Hulk mold with a new head, transforming from an orange and blue robot into a bulldozer. This toy was presented by Hasbro during San Diego Comic-Con 2009, but failed to materialize at retail.
- It's feasible that the Thing was the intended character for this mold rather than the Hulk; the robot mode of the Hulk is riddled with crack details which are a physical feature of the Thing. Additionally, molded details on the figure's waist that seem to be for a Fantastic Four logo are left flat and empty on Hulk.
- The head is just a straight reuse of the first Hulk mold which was likely as a cost-cutting measure due to changing the mold from Thing to Hulk late in the design process. As Hulk is a more popular character than the Thing, Hasbro probably figured another version of Hulk would sell better than one of the Thing.
