I'm thinking about just keeping the figure and using the head on my comic version Star-Lord as well as the weapons, as well as the hands for fodder, but the skin tone on the new head does not match that on the old one, so replacing the horrible looking head of the original MCU Starlord with that head swap is out of the question.

The stock joint on the Titus leg really has me concerned though. It is literally the same exact mold as the Space Venom, yet it has no rotation at the calf. There aren't many reviews of this figure up yet online, but I did manage to find an early review on YouTube and I noticed on their figure, the calf did not rotate either when the reviewer attempted to rotate it. I am wondering if they eliminated that joint all together, or if this is really a QC issue with the figure? It would seem odd to remove articulation from a figure mold that already had it. Of course I don't have the left leg to compare it to, because I could care less about Vance Astro, and am not willing to pick that figure up just for the part.

If anyone else has the right leg of Titus I would be curious to know if the calf joint is also frozen on theirs as well. It would most certainly help my sanity a bit.
