Unstoppable! - Marvel Universe HAMMER Files 3.75" Juggernaut

Who else, but Marvel Universe 3.75" H.A.M.M.E.R. Files Juggernaut?  Well, he's closer to 4.5" but who's counting? ;)  I gotta give a shout out to Roc for this figure--who knew your random trip from one end of the island to the other would yield such awesomeness?  So thanks!

I have a soft spot for oversized figures.  And I don't mean 12 or 15 inchers but rather figures that belong to a certain scale but are oversized due to their physical nature.  So far in the Marvel Universe line, for bulk, there's been: Hulk (Green, Grey, Secret Wars), Red Hulk, Thing, Thor (Modern), Colossus (from the same wave as Juggie), and Juggernaut himself.

In the Iron Man 2, 3.75" line (which I find quite compatible with MU) there's Iron Monger and Hulkbuster Iron Man.

That's at least total of 10 bulky figures and that's not even including the tall ones like Thor (Secret Wars), Sabertooth (Wolverine Origins: comic versions), Thunderball (Secret Wars), Luke Cage, etc.  I like the tall ones too, since they are after all, also oversized.  But the bulky figures always seem to be more worth your money, even if they don't normally yet come with accessories.  I get the feeling most fans feel this way too, if the evidence of what's left on the pegs is anything to go by.

Juggernaut is the same--he's so rare that if you see him and are on the fence about getting him, don't hesitate!  Then come read my review to see if he's worth crackin' open the plastic for.  If you think he's not, you could just offload him to someone else. (Me! Lol.)  You could even make a quick buck in the process.

Still sitting on that fence on whether to snag Juggernaut?  Why, jump off and be swayed (either way) by the review over at Articulated Discussion!
