My Ghost and Luis set arrived today from Target. Luis wasn't a character I ever necessarily expected to get a figure but I'm glad he has so Scott can have his buddy on the shelf. Like Klaue, I don't have any standing issue with his suit piece in hand but I definitely see why others may. A character specific accessory might have been nice to give him some extra "umph" but it's not like Hasbro can materialize him a long anecdote bogged with unnecessary tangent details. Having Luis gives me hope that one day we might get a figure of Happy, which would be nice.
Ghost was always the main draw of this set, being a figure high on my want list since the movie came out, and I'm very impressed with the final result. The sculpting on her suit is on par with figures like Ebony Maw or Corvus Glaive, which is to say it's great all the way down to the small patterns and textures. Her paint is pretty minimal on the suit given it's mostly just grey and then slightly darker or lighter grey. The blue disks are fine but as expected not every one is 100% in place and then the red on her mask is also all in place. Her articulation is the standard showing of an MCU figure at this point but I do feel like her elbows get more range on them than some other figures that also only use the single hinge. The alternate head came out fantastic and they even did the hair color right compared to the official images shown, I also think the way they sculpted how it fits into the pulled down hood came out very well. The heads swap easily enough but I will note that the hood on her masked head does seem to be attached to the head itself so it all just pops off as one piece.
The shrunken lab building/luggage accessory is a fun inclusion and the handle does slide in and out but obviously they didn't actually fit it with little wheels. For whatever reason though it was held in the packaging bubble really tightly, like too tightly. The large ant is easily the weakest part of the set, it's not objectively terrible but its soft sculpt and minimal yet sloppy paint apps don't help it out much.
Overall I'm calling this set a winner for giving me the Ghost I've been waiting for and the Luis I didn't think I needed until I had it.

Here I've tried my hand at recreating Ghost's phasing by overlaying 2 pictures as one, I think it came out alright. Then of course I had to get a sort-of family photo with Ant-Man and Wasp.
