Ah, yes, I see. That is true of butts too. They make a lot of butts where the crack is super defined, where as IRL the clothes stretches over.

Side note, I've always found it funny how when Hulk turns into the Hulk, he becomes a big, kind of ugly guy.

When She Hulk transforms, she's like a supermodel who's been working on her toning exercises.

The next one is of Kate Bishop, which made its debut with the Silk and Ashley Barton figures. The bottom figure is the original She-Hulk figure that Hasbro put out, which thanks to Hasbro attempting to do some ToyBiz style sculpting, ended up actually ooking as if she were coated in shrink wrap.

I have always thought of She-Hulk's transformation as being something of an infection, a mutated strain of the same infection that Bruce Banner has. Like all viruses and infections tend to, her's has changed a bit from Bruce's, allowing her to maintain her human side to shine through, as opposed to Bruce's which is the physical embodiment of the pure rage pent up inside him.

I agree with ya that brick n mortar is disheartening, but I have found online just as much. Im not usually one to get whole waves ( like warlock ) and lotta online stores only have certain individual figs for sale not all thus forcing buyers to get whole cases to obtain certain figs ( like for instance sunfire ). And if they do theyre sold out in seconds or proced higher than brock n mortar and then theres the ricockulous shipping.

If etailers had individual figures for sale and kept stock up id be more inclined want shop online but until i can see actual product instead of stock photos i will prefer physical retail where i can see what im buying instead of buying sightunseen.

I think that the more recent female molds are good enough for what they're trying to accomplish, and I definitely agree with you on the hip articulation in general. While I'm okay with the single jointed elbows (I've had enough scares with double jointed ones on female figures, so I'm okay with not ever having to deal with that again...) there's no reason why the hip articulation can't be at least close or equal to what we got out of Mockingbird.

I have found that my favorite female mold is the kit bashed Silk top/Wasp bottom that was used for the Kate Bishop figure, as it seems to have the best proportions (superhero wise...) as well as sculpt overall, especially on the breasts, where it features the stretched costume look, without looking like shrink wrap or the breast cones that Madonna used to wear in the mid 90's.

As for She-Hulk...that's fine that you think that, although you might be looking at her with green tinted glasses.

My issue with that She-Hulk is that the figure itself is just ugly and could (and should have been) so much better. It's just that body mold. As for the head, I think it's also the tone of green that they used to paint the face, as well as the hair color. It's very dark compared to past figures, and it throws the whole thing off. From the review, it looked also as if her hair and lipstick was painted black, which also could be throwing it off, as I'm more used to her having a darker green set of locks and lips to offset her bright green skin.

I also would have liked to have seen her barefoot as she is often depicted, so the whole figure just really comes off as cheap, especially considering the amount of work that the rest of the set appears to have received.

The older She-Hulk figures weren't great either, but at least they were pretty (especially the SDCC version, which I felt was gorgeous.) If I do get this one, I'm gonna definitely be switching out the head for either that one or the Savage She-Hulk head. I just feel they do her better justice.

I stand corrected. Silk was an all new female body mold, with the bottom half only also debuting on Spider Barton. You are right about the top half though. My bad.

Guys I have a major issue to bring to the forum. Three days ago my best friend was robbed of EVERYTHING. They stole his comics, all his dvds and blu-rays and all his figures. He'd just finished building titus and they even stole his dc figs. Im reaching out to the community to help me help him replace what I can. If anyone has any legends they can spare, figures, bafs, baf parts...anything will help. Pm if you can help. Thanks!

It was suggested elsewhere that Rocket's guns were a little puny, so I tried some beefier ones to see how they looked.

Sadly though, Vulture kind of sucks. I think I might just package it right back up and bring it back to the store. He was not worth $40.
