Michelle (MJ): Now this is the figure that we really wanted out of this set, and I'm glad to have it. I love civilian bodied figures (which is something we need more of) and to get one in a teen build for the MCU is great. It's hard to tell if they shrank down a Netflix JJ or if this is an entirely new mold, but it works and I'm glad to have it. The only gripe that I have with it is that the gripping hand is from an adult mold, and is oversized as a result. The skin tone on them doesn't match the paint on the arm as well, making the hands appear to have a reverse farmers tan.

Where the figure really shines though is the headsculpts. These might be the two best female headsculpts of the MCU figures yet, giving the last two Black Widows a run for their money. The ponytail one is especially good in hand. In addition, in another shocker by Hasbro, while the heads will appear to be a bit smaller on them, the heads can fit on adult bodies if desired because Hasbro didn't use those tiny neck pegs they usually use with teen figures. I cannot stress how happy this makes me as this opens up a plethora of new display options without having to permanently alter them. Want MJ to be a part of the time heist? You can do it. Or how about an older, more mature version of her? Stick the head on the Claire body (which is a perfect skin tone match) from the Luke Cage two pack, and you're set!



All in all, I'm pleasantly surprised by this set. I was totally expecting to have to mod and tweak things here and there to get a little more playability out of them, and for Hasbro having already thought of that and having them ready to go right out of the box was a treat. I highly recommend it, if only for the MJ alone, although the Spidey is not a totally bad consolation prize.
I hadn't really been paying attention, I didn't realize MJ came with two heads. They look really good on those bodies.
