The Maestro (Hulk of the Future) (Marvel Select) Custom Action Figure
Custom #:88086
Name:The Maestro (Hulk of the Future)
Contest:Apocalypse Now
Custom Type:Action Figure
Toy Series:Marvel Select
Creator:Banner/HULK Inc.  
Date Added:February 1, 2017
Base Figure:Barbarian Hulk
Height:10.00 inches
Critiques:Requested!
He calls himself The Maestro. He was once known as Dr. Bruce Banner or The Incredible Hulk. However, in the far future he has become a mad tyrant who rules over all the human survivors of a post apocalyptic Earth.

There are no heroes or villains left to oppose him. He outlived them all and proved that he was the greatest warrior, the strongest one there is.

This custom was inspired by the classic Toy Biz Maestro figure which had the "Fallen Hero" armor (though there were fallen villains included on it too). You can see the attached picture of the original figure that this custom is based on.

I used a Marvel Select Barbarian Hulk figure, cut the hair, sculpted the scalp and shorts, then completely repainted.

I added all helmets and weapons on a strap across the chest exactly like the old Maestro figure had. These consisted of the following: helmets of Juggernaut, Ultron, Iron Man, Dr. Doom, Nova, cape of Dr. Strange, broken shield of Captain America, hammer of Thor (attached with a chain to the shield), and Wolverine's skull, bones and claws.

All the armor and weapons parts came from Marvel Legends figures except for Wolverine's bones. The bones and skull were from a Halloween skeleton figure that was modified to fit around Maestro's arm and then repainted to show the adamantium. I added claws from an actual Wolverine figure to complete the Maestro's very own claw weapon.
