Youtube Marvel Legends 12inch Dead Pool Figure Review

April 22, 2022 Post a Comment

If y'all haven't been reading 'The Unbelievable Gwenpool' then shame on you lot, yous are the reason that they canceled the book! I'yard joking, I only started reading it when information technology hit Marvel Unlimited then I'm part of the problem too. It's a actually fun serial of books. If yous are into the more tongue-in-cheek narrative of books similar 'Nextwave' or 'The Superior Foes of Spider-Man,' I believe you'd capeesh Gwenpool.

Gwendolyn Poole aka Gwenpool (who has no relation to Gwen Stacy or Deadpool, if that makes you experience any improve) is a real person who ends up in the Marvel comic universe somehow, I don't think it'due south ever explained. She doesn't take whatsoever powers or combat preparation, even so being a comic nerd from her origin place she knows everything almost all of the characters she runs into. She goes into existence a superhero with the intent of existence a good guy, but inadvertently ends up working for MODOK and teaming up with other villains. I don't want to spoil too much, just information technology'due south a expert series and worth a read.

First off, props to Hasbro for the in-packet posing. (Apologies for the lack of carded pictures, in my haste I did not retrieve to get shots of the boxes before I promptly trashed them. When I get my ready to keep on carte du jour I'll update the review) She'south positioned on the menu with her hands together making a heart. It'southward cute! While I honey the posing, I'm still a bit annoyed that Hasbro still hasn't figured out how to avert warping the legs inward. Both Gwen and Spider-Woman are especially bad nigh that in this moving ridge.

Gwen comes with a decent spread of accessories, but I can't aid but experience a footling underwhelmed. If y'all like easily, she'due south got you covered with three sets. She also includes two heads, two swords, and a cell phone. Get-go off, the heads are both good simply I'd probably exist willing to surrender the head with the tongue sticking out for an unmasked one.

2d, no guns? A big function of the comic was Gwen obliterating foes with her giant collection of firearms. Information technology'southward not a huge business concern to me because I have thousands of action figures and guns aren't difficult to come by. Merely to somebody who perhaps just wants Gwen I could see the lack of guns as disappointing. To Hasbro's credit, they did include two hands with trigger fingers. Something they didn't do for The Punisher, of all people. The trigger-finger hands pull double duty as the ones needed to agree her swords as well. So exist careful non to stretch them out using guns designed for larger hands.

The phone is only a slim slice of black plastic. A decal or something would have been overnice, but I'g not likewise broken up over that. It does seem like a super easy thing to lose, withal, so be careful and stick it in a handbag or shop it in the pouch on her belt.

Every bit far as sculpt is concerned, if you lot are happy with the Hasbro female torso so this figure should delight you. At that place aren't whatever surprises here as far every bit that'due south concerned. She does get adept range on her elbow joints, which is nice! One affair that I did notice is that the exposed skin below the articulatio genus joint is painted, and information technology doesn't quite match the plastic color of the upper legs. As the figure ages and the pigment fades this may get more than noticeable over fourth dimension.

Would I recommend Hasbro Curiosity Legends Lizard Series Gwenpool?

I kind of wish I hadn't seen the solicitation for the MAFEX Gwenpool prior to getting this one. It has led me to make unfair comparisons of a figure I own that costs $20, to a figure that will exist out much later this year and will cost $lxx. Sure, I'd beloved an unmasked head and some guns, but Hasbro'southward Gwenpool as it is is still a great value. Maybe I can spend the other $50 I saved on a whole arsenal of guns and a decent dinner!
