Apparently
you can not only shame the Jolly Green Giant but you can also out-Hulk
the Hulk. The early 2023 debut of the 3 3/4-inch scale (but much
larger) Manglord - Standard was something of a surprise, I only
found out it was actually coming a couple of days early. While Ideal's
original toy was sort of a jolly green giant of a Hulk x Swamp Thing
hybrid, the new one sculpted by Erwin Papa and Matt Doughty is less
fragile and not junk. This is important - it's a hefty guy with lots of
parts. At $26 it wasn't too outlandish compared to some of Hasbro's
bigger 3 3/4-inch scale offerings, and the extra wacky limbs for $7 was a
sort of no-brainer upsell.
