That NHB Hogan is so beautiful. I love that color combo. It’s so cool to see Hogan in other colors. Exactly. I had Thunderlips and the Hulk/Blassie two pack back in the day.

Thunderlips obviously came out as a Rocky figure, but I think they could do the early heel Hogan. “Ichiban” Hogan would be my biggest want. “Ichiban” Hogan would be awesome. I have a story I may share sometime concerning, among other things, a custom LJN Ichiban Hogan figure in a glass case, Jimmy Hart stealing my t-shirt, and why Hogan owes me twenty bucks. 🤪 Thunderlips has to happen. The hat alone makes it figure of the year. 😅

WOW you have a GREAT collection my friend. You are very talented and I'm really impressed with your customs. I like displaying my loose Hulk Hogans as well but honestly I'm much more of a MOC collector which is why I'm so nervous about getting Pyhton Power Hogan with the red bandanna, Winged Eagle WWE Title around his waist and Hulk Rules no split shirt displayed MOC and Wrestlemania 8 Hulk Hogan with the American Flag in the middle of his shirt MOC. Again, awesome collection.

The more i see Hogan displays, the more i want to make my own. I told myself that i wouldn't need another Hogan after the Elite 91 (Unless they remade it better)... But now i've found myself with the Elite 96 (Looking to find a HULK RULES shirt for it), and interested in getting the Ultimate Edition 13, Either the Hollywood Ultimate or WrestleMania 18 Elite, and the Wolfpac Hogan. Hogan really does sell. Ha, told myself the same thing. Ended up getting 6 or 7 Hogans last year. It doesn't help that the head scans look awesome now, and it'll be even worse for my hip pocket once they change the Elite torso.

Thanks gang! Third pic has the accessory box upside down. XD Otherwise... this is sicker than a yak with jaundice, bruh. Totally dig it, brother. Doin' the Hulkster proud. =D “You can tell I was hasty with the third switch up.” We have a winner! Factory Error, will be worth a fortune brother.

Again, awesome collection. Thanks theman. Although I wouldn’t say I’m talented. Take a look at the custom jobs by triplehpotter7 and some other members here and you’ll see some real talent. But thanks again. And, I hope you get those versions you want. I’d say you have a pretty good chance, seeing how well most of the HH figures sell.

All the different variations - belts, shirts, headbands, bandanas, expressions, etc. - make this addictive!

Thanks gang! “You can tell I was hasty with the third switch up.” We have a winner! Factory Error, will be worth a fortune brother. I’m already making arrangements for an auction at Sotheby’s. And I got a call from Hogan’s Beach Shop. They’re demanding first bid!

I love the display. I bought some extra ultimate Hogans to do this too.

I keep going back and forth with wanting to put the War Bonnet on one of them. 🙄 I wasn't planning to, but it really looks better in-person, and it's a bit unique. I liked it much better once I had it in-hand!

I liked it much better once I had it in-hand! It’s such a bizarre, short-lived look/gimmick for him. But it is unique. I may end up using it too. It fits great on all the Ultimate 13 heads, so maybe I’ll find a use for it. Going forward, I’m very curious to see what Mattel might offer with new ‘80s/early ‘90s Hulks. Especially Ultimate editions.

Admittedly and obviously not a Hogan fan, but I grew up a big Hulkamaniac. The one era of his I can still enjoy is his 2002 run. So I’d glad accept an Ultimate if done right. Needs new heads.
