In an attempt to protect the people and surroundings of a fully enraged Hulk, Tony Stark created a new Iron Man suit specifically designed to withstand the tremendous amount of power and pressure of the Hulk and use this suit's abilities to give the Hulk a non-civilian target to channel his frustrations on.

The write-up looks good, but not a fan of the "comic" art.

OK, let's discuss comic art. :) I couldn't find anything that wasn't super tiny. :lol: I will try again later, but some help on that would be nice. What I have there is really just a place holder and I wanted to have something.

Yeah, slim pickings.
I found an old style comic pic of him:

Good find, A3n! I thought this might be a tough one.

I have the figure and can take pics of him. My only concern is the 4 Defense with Hulkbuster, how often will he actually take wounds? He seems to not have a threshold, but tech (unlike the Hulk) does have a threshold.

I think this is a solid point. I mean She-Hulk can do it, but again, that Gamma DNA has no real limit. Also, I notice that currently he has ranged counterstrike which just doesn't work for me at all, and I think he is likely to OWN Hulk at this point....... How about this:

When rolling defense dice, roll one additional defense die for each skull rolled by the attacking figure up to 4 additional defense dice. If the attacking figure is adjacent, count all excess shields rolled as unblockable hits on the attacking figure.
That caps it out at defense of 8 (Thor level) and restricts the counterstrike aspect to ONLY adjacent attacks.

As Red Skull would say, "Vundabar!"

Oh Spidey, pics would be great thanks. I only have the Handful of Heroes. Also, could you give us an additional profile shot of him against some Hexes so we can see his actual size? And could you tell me if he is better suited on a double space rather than a single? He looks quite large, and wouldn't fit well on a single Elf Ball base much less a single base and fit onto a ladder.

I think that update addresses my main concern that he would be taking out anyone less than Hulk that attacks him rather easily. Other Heroes should stand a chance at cracking his defense.
