No.....but thats would been nice. big boobs and bigger guns..... giggity!

Joking aside....my gripe with that body is it just seems too short for domino. Putting her on the warbird body, hell misty knight with a retool on the tiny ball joint head post, woulda been better. And maybe giving her shoulder harness a holster for a gun. looks goofy with ammo clips on one side and bupkiss on the other,

There it is! I knew deep down it had to be based on a real one, but I couldn't find one that matched in my searches.

I don't know jack-all about Domino, but I like the look of this figure. Except for the head pose in some of these pics, who sticks their neck out like that

[Exodus]

I'm glad they re did domino, I hope they do that with Warpath and Fantomex down the road...

I think the fact that Hasbro figured that they could slightly retool the Mockingbird body moulded in black and call it a day serves as a pretty telling condemnation of just how generic and unmemorable “modern-style Domino” is in terms of costume design.

As seen up-thread, that body is almost as tall as the Bucky Cap type. There are very few female characters who should be taller than that and Domino is certainly not one of them.

What should have been done was combining the Allfather wave Scarlet Witch head with the Rocket Raccoon wave Jean Grey upper body in blue and purple. Instant 90s Domino, no retooling needed.

Maybe to you, but while I do have a fondness for her 90s-era designs, I'm much more fond of her as a character in more recent stories, which the design reflects.

I wouldn't have minded something akin to her design from Wolverine & The X-Men, though, with the blue accents.

[Dolemite]

I just picked up a Domino. Great figure, no complaints. I'm probably going to replace her goofy purple Nerf guns with some Marauder Gun Runners stuff, but otherwise I'm happy.

Marvel is making a new Domino comic as well, and 2 issues in it's pretty great so far. Check it out.

Next up is Deathlok!

Found a Deathlok at Target but he was missing his backpack so I gave it a pass. The package wasn't tampered with so I assume it was a factory fuck-up. Bummer.

Been seeing and hearing about more Hasbro screw-ups like this recently, I'm guessing it's because they are releasing so much product within a short amount of time.

Deathlok is the winner of the wave for me. I feel like this figure has no problems, it's the only one from the wave that I wouldn't change anything about. I personally don't care for how the minigun weapon came out but that's just an extra in my eyes.

[BB Shockwave]

Pretty awesome. See, I wish she looked like this in the Deadpool movie, not like Cleopatra Jones with a white eyepatch.

Same. Deathlok is an example of how hasbro can so a fig RIGHT whwn they actually put effort into em. Granted i would liked to have had the rifle from the mu fig but a chaingun is okay too. It worked for jesse ventura....well...ya know...until he got his chest blown open. *spoiler alert he died* haha.

Yeah I think the MU version's rifle (which also came with the MU Cable, funny to me because now both of 'em got Legends in the same wave) would have been a better fit for Deathlok and then also a cool gun to pass around to other figures. I wish I could give Deathlok the X-Force DP's rifle because something about its black and blue scheme just looks really nice with Deathlok to me, but sadly Deathlok's hand is too big to fit in its normal sized handle.

Re: X-Force DP; This was the figure I hands-down wanted the most from this wave because I just love Remender's Uncanny X-Force just so damn much and then as a result I'm very fond of that color scheme for DP. My only complaint against this figure is that his pistol is painted to look like a toy with a safety cap.

Actually you can wedge the rifle in his gun hand and it will hold.

Nice unmasked Gwenpool! What head did you use? I did one of my own using the New 52 Supergirl head.

It was the brood wave marvel girl head. Didnt even need to dremel it. Just painted and clipped the hoop earrings and whala!

[jestermon]

I actually seen this entire wave in store I just want the swords from Deadpool.

I'm not sure why people complain about the guns they had all kinds of crazy laser space guns in the 90s comics

This one is shooting lasers and bullets apparently

Where did you get the fast food style cup, with the straw, that you used in the photos?

[Dolemite]

I assume he got it from the Jules Pulp Fiction figure that Diamond Select put out?
