So my thoughts on the Ch'od wave outside of Corsair:

Ch'od - Despite being quite inaccurate (I did paint his fins and nails yellow though), I do like him as a figure even if there is nothing special about him. I'm glad his ab crunch actually works compared to the wobbly bobbly Abomination had. His pet is cool, but he is missing his rifle thing. Or maybe I'm thinking of Raza's rifle.

Fang - He isn't Brood-y enough. Nah, he's fine I guess. His body, knees, waist pieces of his legs, and elbows are a darker shade than the majority of his arms and legs, so that is very annoying. I still don't get why Hasbro can not keep the shades consistent throughout one figure. I also feel like Fang is too tall. I always thought he was the same size as Wolverine. His headsculpt is amazing.

Kid Omega - The only thing I remember about this character is him being someone's boyfriend and getting blown up while going through a Krakoa portal with Wolverine. The new thinner body is fantastic and should be the standard body used for slimmer characters rather than that Pizza Spidey one. I don't get why he comes with a gun but not trigger fingers. It's Punisher all over again in this regard. His face sculpt is good, though it does look like a young Jeff Bridges to me. Not sure if it's just due to the Tron vibe I get from his suit or what.

Emma - This figure fucking sucks!!!! Why even make her arms be articulated if you can't even actually remove the cape?? THis is a design that required a cloth cape and Hasbro completely dropped the ball on this one. One of the worst Legend figures ever made, which is sad considering how many the paint job is, especially for the head. I'm going ot see if there is some other body I can at least put the head on so she can be a background bystander.

Monet - The body seems a bit bigger for her, but given she has super strength, that might be intentional. Still, she seems a bit bulkier than Rogue, which is weird to me. Face is fantastic looking and I love everything on her is new.

Chamber - This one is a mixed bag. The arms seem a tad too lanky and they're using the old pinned legs, which seems like a step backwards. I also don't care for the hipster fire beard. I had no idea this was all one piece with his head as I thought it sat around his head. The jacket is nice though.

Overall, I'm glad I either got this wave for cheap or did not end up buying figures from it at all. It's a lackluster wave, but at least the paint apps were spectacular across the board on the individual figures. A shame they dropped the ball on Ch'od. I could do without the fins on the back of the legs if necessary, but why the hell did they not at least correct his fingers?????
