Full Metal Alchemist Manga: Homunculi

A lot of people have talked about the FMA anime. There seems to be a ton of difference between the anime and the manga. All I can say is, i think the manga is better, and here are the Homunculi from the manga. (I've used anime pictures where the pics are the same)

SPOILER WARNING: Post contains info on the manga storyline.




Pride a.ka. Salem : Surprise!! King Bradley's son Salem is actually Pride in disguise. Pride, the very first homunculus created by "Father", is a being of shadows. Although his movement is limited to the capital city and underground tunnels, he is insanely strong.
Below: Pride's true form.



Below: Wrath, a.k.a. King Bradley. The dictator is a ruthless being under a friendly facade, a master swordsman with a magical eye under the patch.






Lust, the sexiest of the homunculi. Her weapons were her charm, and the way she could transmute parts of her body to razor blades and edges. Destroyed by Roy Mustang.
Below: Lust to dust, courtesy Roy Mustang.




Gluttony (below): The name says it all. He can eat anything, and can even fire a beam which swallows anything in its path. His stomach is practically an alternate universe.




Below: Sloth. Unlike Gluttony, who is simply stupid, Sloth is nearly brainless. An unstoppable giant on par with the Hulk, he is used by the other homunculi as a beast of burden. His greatest ambition in life is to stop working and take a vacation.




Greed (below left): "The man who wants everything", Greed does not only want fame and fortune, he also wants love and friends, comrades, servants and followers. Since he refuses to sacrifice his followers and friends, he ends up rebelling against the homunculi.
Greed in Lin's body (below right): When Greed first rebels, the others destroy his body, wipe his memory, and plant his soul into Lin's body to try and regain his services. It works... only for a little bit.



Coming up: Envy










Envy, the shapeshifting homunculi responsible for killing Colonel Hughes.










Envy's true form




Below: Envy, after Scar and Dr. Marcoli get through deconstructing him. Sucks to be him =P
