MSRP: $5.99 value (not for individual sale)
When I saw pictures of this minifigure earlier last month, I knew I had to pick it up! This Hulk minifigure is not sold in any other set making this quite an exclusive. In the regular sets, they do have Hulk in a "big wampa like" form in the 6868 Hulk's Helicarrier Breakout set. But in terms of minifigure form, this is the only item that contains the Hulk in minifigure form. Let's see if its really as cool as it seems in this review!

The front of the polybag. Hulk in a city background that looks like its been under seige. I haven't seen the Avengers Movie yet so I'm not quite sure what's going on. :)
Dumping out the contents, we get 4 pieces as shown on the bag. No accessories or any extra pieces.
The built minifigure. Very cool and cute looking (especially when Hulk is in miniature form)!
Though, one thing that bugs me is that Hulk is not wearing anything on the side or the back. Somehow, he only managed to get his pants printed on the front. LEGO probably forgot about the rest. :(
Final Verdicts
Aside from the legs printing part, this is a very cool minifigure to have. LEGO claims that this minifigure has a $5.99 value. Though, they don't sell it separately and its also their exclusive. Instead, LEGO is currently offering this minifigure for free when you make a $50 purchase at LEGO Brand Stores and LEGO Shop at Home (USA | Canada | UK). The promotion runs until May 31st, 2012 or while supplies last so if you want this exclusive minifigure, you should make your purchase now.
