I just got him in the mail yesterday.

I gotta admit not my favorite figure but I don't think he is horrible....I view it like this

Hasbro definitely went for accuracy over plyability. The figure, to me, is an uncanny resemblance of his comic book appearance.

So they gave him the necessary look we wanted but if they had glued or cemented his armor down he would have negative flexability. That leg armor would make it IMPOSSIBLE for leg articulation to even exist, at least with this option we can opt out and take off the armor.

I can't make the same argument with the chest though. The chest piece SHOULD have been sculpted on, just like Iron Man's armor and his chest should have been one solid piece which would have given us both articulation and accuracy.

So in my opinion, on a scale of 1-10 (1 being absolutely unbuyable and 10 being a must must have). I'd put him at about.....4. Mostly graded on his accuracy and the fact that Hasbro didn't lock us into having no flexability by having the leg part glued on.
