THQ recently debuted the Saint's Row: The Third character creation tool - dubbed Initiation Station - prior to the game's scheduled release to give fans a chance to create and upload custom characters that will be available to all players on day one. For fans, it's a great opportunity to play with the creation tools, which have the kind of fine granularity it takes to make a character that looks exactly how they want. For people with more twisted minds, it affords the opportunity to make avatars that look like famous people, and put them in weird costumes.

For instance, you can do a pretty decent looking Hulk, thanks to the extended options for skin color in Initiation Station. You can do natural flesh tones as well as less expected colors like green or silver, opening up the possibility of doing a lot of different comic book-inspired characters.
You can always take a crack at doing real-life people as well. Here is my attempt at creating an avatar the looks like Sarah Palin:

Not bad if I say so myself, though the hair and the glasses aren't quite right. You are still somewhat constrained by the items developer Volition has given you. Also, I think Hulk looks better in that outfit:
