Ever since the Hulk officially joined Thor: Ragnarok, desperate fans have hoped that the film will in some way be adapting the Planet Hulk storyline. This year’s San Diego Comic-Con seems to have granted them their wish, by providing a first look at the Hulk’s armour in the movie.

Although the character will be motion captured, Marvel just unveiled a series of props at their SDCC booth replicating the armour and weaponry Hulk will be wearing when Thor encounters him in Ragnarok — something which has been rumoured, and now seemingly confirmed, to include scenes of Hulk fighting in a gladiatorial arena on some distant planet. Here’s a video of the reveal courtesy of Marvel Digital Media Executive Editor, Ryan Penagos:

Big hammer and axe? Check. Single shoulder spaulder? Check. Centurion-style helmet? Check, check and check. It’s cool to see this stuff as it is, but we can’t wait to see it attached to the Hulk himself in Ragnarok.
