Kang typically carries various weapons, such as an anti-matter defense screen generator, a "vibration-ray" projector, an electromagnetic field-amplifier, neutrino-ray warheaded missile launcher (hand-gun size), electrical paralysis generator, nerve gas sprayer, and a molecular expander. Kang commands a vast armada of warriors from across the galaxy of his future era. He uses numerous robots, most notably his Growing-Man stimuloids, packed with the "Growth Pollen" of the world Kosmos, which causes them to grow in size and strength by absorbing kinetic energy.
Kang's primary base in 40th-century Other Earth is the Center, but he also maintains a secret dwelling in the realm known only as Purgatory, as well as strongholds in various alternate realties. His former base Chronopolis, powered by the Heart of Forever, served as a crossroads into virtually every era in human history, but lay just out of phase with the timestream and was therefore undetectable. Its palace and inhabitants were unaffected by temporal divergence or the passage of time. Kang formerly employed a 20' long space-worthy vehicle housing his time machine, which could reach all eras of all timelines by accessing the transtemporal realm of Limbo. Kang has used a number of other vessels, such as his Sphinx ship and Damocles Base, an immense sword-shaped orbiting headquarters.
Abilities; Kang is an expert in travel through and manipulation of time, and has mastered his future's advanced technology. He is an expert strategist, a veteran of armed and unarmed combat, and has an indomitable will to succeed through struggle.
Weapons; None
Paraphernalia; Kang's full-body armor (composed of an unidentified future metal) enables him to lift 5 tons; it can project a force field around him that is extendable up to twenty feet and can shield him from even a direct nuclear strike. The suit has its own self-contained atmosphere, food supply and waste disposal system. Its weapons include anti-graviton particle projectors in his gauntlets, concussive force blasters, circuitry accessing his ship's time machine, allowing him an "automatic recall" of a few seconds, and various other weapons. Kang formerly used technology which transferred his mind into an alternate body upon the point of death.
Classic Kang SERIES/WAVE: Fantastic Four Series 2
BAF PIECE: None
FIRST APPEARANCE: Avengers #8
NOTES: Kang is the foremost time-traveling villain in Marvel. But that's not all. He has done something that no villain has ever done before. Not Dr. Doom, not Mandarin and not Red Skull. Kang was the first villain to conquer Earth. After the Kang Wars, Kang imprisoned the Avengers and forced Wasp, the then chairperson of the team to sign a notice of surrender. Of course, his reign was short lived when the Avenger escaped and defeated him.

NOTES: This is the same Kang as the FFC version. Why bring him out again? Simple. Not many people could find him. Like Dragon Man, he wasn't that easy to find and became really sought after. So, Hasbro has decided to release the TB version for people to get a hold of.
