A new-sculpt, 1st app Blade w/brown leather jacket, stake bandolier, green BDU pants and removeable goggles would be the absolute shiz. Put him in a comic pack with Drac...best comic pack ever. Seriously.

What can we say about Cage. I guess it's not Hasbro's fault the modern LC doesn't have a costume. But they seriously could've put more thought into this poorly painted "thug". Like WTF is up with that splotchy paint skin tone they were using on so many of the figs? Anyway, he was just horrible, and the waste of a slot if they weren't even gon try with the character. I'm hoping Power Man will be better. I'd love to see a 90's Cage over what we got. An Marvel Max mini-series Cage would be far too much to ask for, I know...

As for Mary Jane, the only thing I didn't like about her was her horrible face and the stupid-ass Spidey logo on her chest. Her shirt, stretch pants, and hair were great; an homage to the Adam Hughs drawing. And technically that Miss Kitty fig has the best sculpt in all the MU line (it's dead on). Though whoever thought it would be a good idea to put the logo on MJ's chest should really be fired. They are totally out of touch with thier consumers. It's like Mattel making a Lois Lane in her mini-skirt and blazer and then putting the Supes shield across her back. It's totally unrealistic, a waste, and just plain dumb. We know who she is. That's why we bought the figure.

Ironically, Luke Cage has probably the most accessories....although those aren't very good either
