Well, finally...a Destro review of this wave that I agree with 100%. I was a big fan of the Wesley Snipes movies as well (although they got slowly worse with each installment), and this figure really captures that feel. I actually wish the bald head had zero hair, as he could then pass for Kirk Jones (they guy who played him in the under-rated Spike TV series), and it's obvious that the head with hair is meant to invoke Snipes without specifically being him.

I also agree that no guns is a glaring omission for Blade, but most toy collectors have enough spares lying around that we can make up for that unfortunate mistake on Hasbro's part. Blade is the tops of this wave for me, personally.

If you compare unmasked Black Panther with unmasked Hela and say the old way is better you are out of your mind.

I haven't seen Hela in-hand yet so I can't comment, but overall I think the old paint apps looked better than the new digital ones...cleaner, sharper, and more fitting with the comic book style.

Plus paint apps have always been hit or miss this in nothing new, so you feel Toyark is obligated to speak to it in every review?

Yes. As I said before, if you review a car and it doesn't start, you don't ignore that fact because other cars the dealer sells DO start.

Besides, YES, ToyArk usually does point out bad paint apps in their "cons" section, which makes the omission here so baffling.

I know I have always loved and collected the MCU figures and the improvements in the past couple years is great. I agree with toyark and that as action figures I don't see any cons in the latest batch of legends.

Well, you know the saying about opinions and assholes, yes?

I just looked at the Blade gallery again after reading this (since a figure's ass isn't the first thing I check out), and I have no idea what you're talking about. This is just a really weird post.

Agreed.

Secondly, the bald zigzag head is definitely a con. Who the hell would actually go outside with their hair shaved like that?

Have you ever seen a Blade movie?

Quote:

Third, you didn't even talk about how he can't stand up straight.

Shit, really? How bad is it?

I'm not saying he has to drone on and on about things like paint being out of the lines or something like a certain Youtube reviewer does, but the negatives are right there in the pictures. Also, Elektra's arms are not limited to just that one figure.

Again, agreed. You're not so grouchy after all!
