The Cable, Cyclopse, Scarlet Spiderman body should be the gold standard with MU. Swivil ball hinge hips rotating heels. No ugly anle joint. The new DD Bullseye 2 pack should be of the same quality.

I think it's hard to pick just one figure that is the best because there are so many things to take into account.

Plus, the line as a whole seems to be getting increasingly better as time goes on with upcoming figures surpassing those that are left behind.

I'm gonna say Dr. Strange.

Going to go with Cable. Scarlet Spider would have been perfect except his hip ball joints pop out of the socket way too easy, and it seems like a problem with the mold itself.

Ok after just picking this guy up I have to change my answer to him The SDCC exclusive Spider-Man. My god. The articulation and the detail on him are spot on!!! And the web accessory is actually one of the best Spider-Man accessory out there

Imo....

1. Silver Samurai for sculpt, paint app, articulation
2. Cable w/ baby for sculpt, paint app, accessories
3. Deadpool (2pack) for sculpt, paint app, accessories
4. WW Hulk for sculpt, accessories
4. Colossus (GS X-Men pack variant) for sculpt, paint app

Variant Sentinel.

For a non-cheap answer, I'm tempted to go either Juggernaut or WW Hulk. Although Juggernaut doesn't have the same level of work given to WW Hulk it's a very nice, clean sculpt; it's what Toy Biz couldn't deliver in their Showdown line (and if they had, I probably would have been into collecting years sooner). The WW Hulk has exceptional articulation and sculpting but the paint can be shoddy at times (and I've always been bothered by the non-painted shield, scabbard, etc). Plus there's that weapon-holding issue... Other than that, maybe modern Thor (great paint, articulation, etc) or Doctor Strange (only real issue with him is that raised eyebrow). That Doc Strange is incredible.

I've honestly not seen the appeal to Silver Samurai. I know lots of people drool over the damn thing but the only perk I've really seen is the articulation. I'm just not feeling that sculpt at all. The head looks annoyingly off.

thats well put, and i get everything u say about it. but, like u said wwhulk has a weapon holding issue, and doc strange has the peoples eyebrow thing goin on so thats a point knocked off both. you say the head is off and u dont feel the sculpt, ok i'll give u those. but this is the 1st time he's been in figure form and for them to get it that close to good is a pretty nice achievement. wwhulk and strange have both been done b4 so u would expect them to be better a long the lines of greatness then they are

im just sayin

I said it in the other thread ages ago, and I'll say it again.

X-23 is hands down the best figure.
Now for close second I'd say Commander Rogers and Darkhawk. I love how these turned out and their articulation. Somehow they even managed to get darkhawk's head to tilt up in some of the photos I've seen which is awesome for flight poses!

So far X-23 is kicking ass. But I agree with Cable and Cyclops a well. I totally wasn't expecting that Cyke figure to be as good as it is

i'd say these sum up my expectations for the line. great sculpts or at least reuse of good sculpts plus the best available articulation for this scale. nitpicks would be that the hulk body needs the side to side rocking ankles, cable needs to be a smidge shorter and the technoorganic infected arm's bicep to deltoid connection coulda have been done better, and if all the figures had ball jointed wrists like the ww2 cap, sdcc movie spidey, and dr strange that'd be awesome since BE iron man needs em in his open hand. also that joints need to be cast in the correct colors.

i'd add commander rogers, x-23, and namor to the list if i had em.

honorable mention goes to apocalypse.

^ That is such an awesome pic. I am totally going to steal some of those poses. LOL. I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to pose WWH while holding his weapons and make it look natural. LOL.
