Once you start pushing the legs forward, the begin to turn outwards and sideways, not unlike the way most female figures from the early 90's did. I have figures from ToyBiz's PRE Marvel Legends waves that were better than that piece of ****...

For perspective, look at how tiny he is next to Civil War Spidey, which is a teenage body mold. You can also see that awful hip joint of his I was mentioning...

I'd put Astonishing Cat Beast on that list as well, since he uses that same damn joint system in his legs. Shame because that is my favorite version of Beast.

Electro peg warmed the hardest? Did the Allfather wave never come your way, because I can still find Hellcat for anyone still looking.

The articulation did indeed suck, but I think the likeness and sculpt are quite good. I just think it's better than Electro. Looks wise, Electro looks awful.

I also think there must have been variants, because as you can see here, this Sandman is fine. Maybe you have the trilogy re-release?

Hellcat warmed a lot around here too, but not as much as Electro and ASM2 Spidey.
