After watching the review as well...I hate to say it, but She-Hulk got hit with an ugly stick. Repeatedly. That stoic/semi stink-faced expression she has doesn't do her any favors either. The original Hasbro version looked way better, as did the Red She Hulk.

I know a lot of people are excited for She-Hulk, but Hasbro SHOULD have done better on that one. I have no real interest in this set to begin with, but even I would have tried to at least track She-Hulk down loose. Not when the figure looks like that though.

None of the female ML molds are that good, personally I find the somewhat limited hips less offensive than the Spider-women molds that have about half the articulation that they need. I can get Valkyrie and Thundra into some good, dynamic poses for the type of character they are. It's much harder to get the Spider-women into anything resembling a lithe, gymnastic pose that they should be in.
I don't agree about the She Hulk head sculpt either. To me the main problems with it (aside from the mediocre articulation common to all female ML) is the long neck, the shorter height and the shrink wrapped breasts. I have the original She-Hulk figure on my desk right now and the only thing I wish the new one had from it was the height. Hasbro Marvel Legends need better expressions almost across the board in my opinion, so that's not something unique to this figure. But even when they give them a more idiosyncratic just as many people start complaining about it (like Enchantress) so I can see why they just stick to more neutral expressions. The old She-Hulk figures expression is inappropriately vacuous as well.

I'm not trying to change anyones' mind, I just don't agree.
