The Iron Fist and Speed Demon hands do indeed work. They're easily swapped out, and fit snuggly on Electro with no mods needed. Might be a good time to snatch up some of those Iron Fists on clearance at your local Walmart! Hopefully Hasbro will do a sale for the Allfather wave the way they did for the Ant Man wave recently on Ebay. If they do, I swear, I'm snagging like three or four of him just for the hands alone.

Ask and you shall receive!



It's hard to tell in the picture, but the color on Speed Demon's hands are just a slightly different tint of blue/black than that on Electro, but can be placed on him in a pinch and won't look entirely off, although if you want a little bit of a closer match, you might need to do some touch up work or at least some black drybrushing to better match them. I prefer Iron Fist over Speed Demon's simply because I like a glove-less look on Electro, but in all honesty, it's whatever floats your boat there. Electro's hands also work with Iron Fist and Speed Demon as well.

I like the bald head personally because I enjoy the seething personality that's coming out of it. Plus, I already have the ToyBiz Sinister 6 boxset Electro, so using the classic head on this newer figure seems a bit redundant to me, as I feel the ToyBiz version was already a near perfect representation of that look.

While messing around with the Sam Wilson Captain America tonight, I spotted an unused BAF part in my fodder out of the corner of my eye. While the shape of them might not be perfect, and the straps are a somewhat tight fit (the peg is not long enough to fit in his back normally like they did on the BAF unless you use the straps,) the straps do fit on him perfectly without hindering the articulation too much. With a little bit of paint, I think I might have solved his "lack of wings" problem.









Now...to do some research on those wing colors for the repaint. I mean...what would Hasbro do?
