What Is The Worst MU Figure to Stand Up

Symbiote · 12-02-2011, 06:47 PM

Alright, not only just marvel universe but counting the spider-man line, Thor, XMO, and Cap 3.75 lines, WHO IS THE WORST FIGURE TO SETUP? I'm talking about that one figure that always tends to fall over...everytime...this jambroni figure...who always falls down...sometimes knocking over others in their destruction...and is the most pain is the a$$ figure to stand up or setup.

For me, I'm going with this guy

Even the Mighty Gods of Hasbro at SDCC 2010 could not withstand the mighty fail.

Thor. Don't get me wrong, it's an awesome figure but the cape is too damn heavy that it always tends to knock him back. So for me, out of all of the marvel universe figures and other lines, I vote Thor to be the most pain the a$$ figure to stand up.

I would say anyone with a cape.

M3T4L V1KING · 12-02-2011, 07:10 PM

Blade is a pain is the ass to stand too.

evilanimation · 12-02-2011, 07:11 PM

Sentry is killing my setup!! He is a dick.

FancyPants · 12-02-2011, 07:39 PM

Dr DOOM is mine. Without a stand I had to use the wasp the CP came with the balance the weight. It was glorious

On another note. I fixed my xforce warpath's knives. I just ran them under the blow dryer for a minute and they got all noodly. I then placed them under a book for a couple more minutes. Strait as they can be. The X force is growing on me

Make him fly. That's what I did.

Hands down Archangel, followed by Vision

Taskmaster.
Taskmaster.
Taskmaster.

I even have trouble having him stand on a uh... stand.

Marvel Kid · 12-02-2011, 08:13 PM

My Sentry can only stand when it uses its third leg(the edge of the cape)... But my Thor stands okay. Hulk stands the best, he never falls...duh....haha

Good Stuff · 12-02-2011, 09:14 PM

TASKMASTER hands down: heaviest cape, quiver/strap, weak leg joints, wobbly knees, small feet. Yep, can't even stand up using a stand.

Modern Thor actually stands quite well, he's never fallen in my experience and his joints are solid. Sentry the same, just need to make him lean forward a bit.

I forgot about taskmaster. I use a stand now, it works pretty well.

Also, for some reason my sabertooth sucks ass. His legs are so loose that even with a stand he gets the jimmy legs and falls over

Symbiote · 12-02-2011, 09:45 PM

Ya the thigh swivel leg joint on my thor is loose and another reason why he always falls. I would also agree with sentry and taskmaster. The capes are cool but heavy. The thing with having flying stands is having to pick which figure gets the privilege to be in the flying stand, lol. These were my ways of making sure this guy stays put.

My Sabertooth (from the 1st class comic 2pk) is stiff as a nail, can hardly bend his knees so sturdy he is....

Another figure that comes to mind is WW2 Cap from the Cap movie line. I can't get him to stand without a (IM2) stand...

pretty much. even doom falls over, his cape is so low that he rests on it though

Tiberius · 12-02-2011, 10:45 PM

Sentry is the worst for me, then Scarlet Spider, and my brothers Electro. Pisses me off.

Good Stuff · 12-02-2011, 10:47 PM

Yes...Scarlet Spidey - leg joints are super loose, even getting him to stay kneeling on the ground requires wizardry skills...

Tiberius · 12-02-2011, 10:48 PM

Mines sitting, I said fuck it.

Exodus · 12-02-2011, 10:59 PM

Haha glad I don't have that problem=p all of mine stay carded hanging on the wall.

I have mine in a fairly aggressive pose. Seems to be stable.

quipp209 · 12-02-2011, 11:10 PM

The worse for me has been the dam gladiator his knee joints are so loose

behindthemask · 12-03-2011, 12:11 AM

xmo Gambit is a bitch to stand up! spiderwoman and frostgiants are terrible to balance especially with all the accessories on.

Symbiote · 12-03-2011, 12:12 AM

I'm adding SW Magneto and Scorpion when you pose him with the tail up.

YES XMO Gambit is also a b1tch. That damn coat sucks a$$

iLegends73 · 12-03-2011, 12:16 AM

sentry, taskmaster (when i had him) thor and skrull. idk if its because his legs are to little or what but i got tired of him falling so i just took him off my shelf and put him in my trade box

tsweet · 12-03-2011, 12:17 AM

Taskmaster and Sentry my goodness. Then on top of that I have to look at his lips as he falls down. LOL

Tiny dab of paint thinner and the lips look great! and use a stand or flight pose.
