Of course I wouldn't mind if they did a new muscular sculpt but I think it serves its purpose.
My issue with the Moonstone body is that nearly every female legends figure that has broken on me in the past came off that stupid mold. I've lost a Warbird, Captain Marvel, Two Black Cats and a Scream to that stupid body mold.

The issue is most often in the hips. Most of the time, the upper thigh joint plugged into hip is too small for the t/y joint ball peg. The thigh will often have a crack or seam right down the middle of it, and will often snap right off the ball if you try to pose the figure dynamically below the waist. They also tend to use a thicker, more fragile plastic for some reason with this body mold, which makes the figure more prone to breakage overall. My Scream figure's arm tore right off at the bicep swivel the first time I tried to manipulate it, and I've had ankles snap right off fairly easily as well.

I wish they would just retire that mold already and create a new one with thicker features for our more muscular and endowed women of the Marvel Universe....even more so than I'd like to see the Hyperion or Bucky Cap mold disappear. With all the complaining people do over those, I personally have had far less issues with those over that wretched Moonstone body.
