With sdcc just around the corner and more than likely with more information on Sony's "Silver and Black" coming, would it be too soon to ask that Hasbro release another Black Cat figure on anything other than the Moonstone body mold? Classic Cat, Kingpin Cat...I really don't care. The Moonstone body is a notoriously lousy one for anything other than having your figure standing there and looking pretty, as it's fragile and is very limited in it's articulation.

I was reminded of this tonight as I pulled my Black Cat out of the bin to try and snap a couple of a cool poses for some pictures. The only thing that snapped however were the legs at the thigh cut on both sides. This was at the slightest provocation as well, no force was exerted on the figure, and what's more, this is the second Black Cat figure I've owned that this has happened to. I had a similar thing happened with my Warbird figure back in the day as well (thank goodness I was able to get another one on clearance at Target before the price jumped.)

Thankfully, Vintage Widow isn't too hard (or expensive) to find, because I'm gonna have to kitbash the hell out of it due to all of the unique parts on Felicia's sculpt. They look like they match up for the most part when I lined them up, hopefully they work because Felicia is my fave femme fatale, along with one of my favorite Spider-Man characters out there, but there's no way I'm going through this a third time (especially when she still drives a hearty price on the secondary market...)
