===The Growing Man=== When they found it, it was doll size, but it has since grown to human dimensions. Although it appears to be some form of robot, it is warm to the touch. When one of the scientists gives it a good knock on the chest, it comes to life and strikes him. The cop starts blasting away with his pistol, but the only effect it has on the robot is that it starts growing to the extent that it can crash through the wall and pick up a nearby house. He doesn't seem to be interested in mindless destruction though, and keeps calling for his master asking why he has forsaken him and what task he can do for him. The Police get their butts saved by Kang who turns up and shrinks the robot back down to doll size. He explains that the robot was planted on earth in preparation for a long-term plan but that the museum expedition had set him off prematurely. The police try to bring in Kang and he starts to threaten them. "Keep your distance!! To me you are like anthropoid cave men." The stimuloid was supposed to be a hidden weapon, left tiny and inert in the past so he could activate it when his enemies least expected. Kang resets the Growing Man to doll size once more and retreats to his time machine. The Growing Man is one of Kang's most potent weapons turning up again in Avengers 69 and 268 and more recently Thunderbolts 5. ====Qin's Army, Terracotta==== The Terracotta Army, sometimes referred to as "Qin's Armies", Terracotta Warriors and Horses is a collection of 8,099 larger than life Chinese terra cotta figures of warriors and horses located near the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor. The figures vary in height according to their rank; the tallest being the Generals. The heights range is 6ft - 6ft 5in, or more than a full foot taller than the average soldier of the period. The figures were discovered near Xi'an, Shaanxi province, China. Construction of this mausoleum began in 246 BC and is believed to have taken 700,000 workers and craftsmen 38 years to complete. buried alongside great amounts of treasure and objects of craftsmanship, as well as a scale replica of the universe complete with gemmed ceilings representing the cosmos, and flowing mercury representing the great earthly bodies of water. Pearls were also placed on the ceilings in the tomb to represent the stars, planets, etc. The tomb of Qin Shi Huangdi is near an earthen pyramid 76 meters tall and nearly 350 square meters.
