Agreed, the Shang fig came out spectacularly well. My only druthers are he's too thick (needs to be a bit lithe), and while I know he's often illustrated as generally stoic (steely calm trained assassin/fighter), there should be an emotive head for combat. I'm excited to get another fig of the character. That said, I’ve read many calls for him to be redone with his jacket, but I believe that would be a mistake. I don't feel it would translate well and I think Hasbro made the proper design decision. If they added the robes, they would likely give him the same treatment as the recent Luke Cage and eliminate the ab crunch reducing articulation, which would defeat the point. I don’t need a Shang Chi fig for neutral posing. However, I could use some of his more modern looks: the red and black jumper, or the sleeveless ‘dragon’ tee with baggy pants…
