I have them both and its a big improvement

?????!!!! I bought one of the recent lots and I must say it looks the same to me, but I must say that I have never seen the original one. Could you please upload pictures?

I think first appearance Wolverine would be better fit a comic pack with a new hulk figure. Also have a re-release of Wolverines first appearance in Incredible Hulk #180. I honestly would love that comic pack. Use that Fist Avengers Appearance Hulk body, give him the torn purple jeans, 70's head instead of 60's and BAHM! You have yourself a mighty fine comic pack!

MAKE IT HAPPEN HASBRO!

I'd say the worst fig is Mr. Fantastic from the 2-pack comic. Boring, tiny, ugly face, and all wrapped up with a protruding neck ... just friggin horrible. The only good pose I could get out of this fig is to have him stomach down on the ground like he's been beaten to a pulp.

Those wolverine figs with the long neck are really lame as well, like they been kicked in the nuts...

Reed can become an awesome figure if you buy this cheapie PVC "build a figure":
Amazon.com: Marvel Figure Factory: Mr. Fantastic: Toys & Games
The hands (from gloves down) on the PVC pop right off and are the same diameter as the MU figure.
If you wanna get really creative, put Reed's head on a Multiple Man body, add the new orearms and go with a total repainted costume.
I'll postpic of mine later today...I promise!


Really, it's Reed's too-muscled body that make his Secret Wars fig look...wrong.




Speaking of the Fantastic Four, this is really quite cool- and it would work far better with MU figures than those 6" ones!

This This This!! Tiberius, you read my mind dude. I was thinking about that the other day. But, since 1st App Wolvie is a single card, they could use that Hulk and make a Wendigo figure. Well, he's a figure I want.

That's what I did. I found it for like $8 on clearance at TRU last year. Even MU Thing fits in it!

[Colder Soldier]

And another misqoute. What's up with me today. Next post.

I like her. I don't know why people hate it so much except maybe for the short-looking neck. Other than that, she's damn near perfect.

Yeah, I hate when that type thing happens. Obviously this Wolverine screams Hulk #180 CP. With that we could've also gotten a better painted/colored Hulk.

Though what I'd ultimately want in a new Hulk fig is the WWH retooled into purple pants. That's a fig that would see play errday! I'm sure it's gotta be in store for the SDCC display. They gotta realize that first Hulk sculpt is grabbage.

[LUCKYDUBE]

IMHO, there is more worst then best if that makes any sense?

It also looks the same to me. I got the "new" Jean Grey moc and couldn't see the difference when I compared it to my "old version". People had been debating about this... some say it's REALLY a new head.. others say it's the same but with slight changes on the paint... some even say that the new headsculpt only appeared with the prototype which was shown in a toy/comic con (which is also shown at the card's back illustration). I guess it's in the eye of the beholder. lol

Regadless of the head, the figure sucks- she's got a teeny tiny fist on one arm and a flipper on the other.
Terrible.

You'd have to swap the head from either Phoinex or the First Class Jean, a well as their hands, for that figure to be passable.

[cainraw]

Both Jean Greys look terrible to me.

[omega145]

The jean grey is an ok figure to me and I think there are far worse figures. The xclass marvel girl is a much better figure tho.
Luke cage is a pretty terrible figure with his silly accessories. I'm waiting on the powerman figure.

[snake5289]

Mine pic is probably the first Iron Man figure. Not only is it the only freaking MU figure around here but it doesn't even look very good compared to the newer Iron Man figures like Extremis and Bleeding Edge.

[Kaewin]

I think the Secret Wars Wolverine was pretty awful. The entire neck piece made it look like Thor whacked him in the back of the neck. And of course the size.

But my least Favorite one would be the Hydra fig. When I think Hydra I see the old Kirby pics with Cap or Nick Fury fighting them. What is this bank heist version.


Oh the Hand looked bad too.

Multiple Man sucks too. For such a wimpy fig, plain paint app, no accessories, they should have packed 3 figs in the single card to make it worth the price...and considering the art work on the card (front/back) shows 3 multiple men, this is false advertising....oh Hasbro...

What's that blow-up doll next to Johnny?
Man, the Showdown line was cruel to females.

Thanks for the pic- that does indeed rock to display the FF!

He needed the trenchcoat from the comics- I only bought him to make a new body for Reed- it's nice and slender!

Wanna get rid of yours? I need a seventh Hydra soldier! PM me!
For that classic look, the new Cap line has one coming out that's pretty sweet (if colored a bit too darkly for the Steranko days).

Wow just wow, some of the suggestions of worst figures are just undeserving IMHO.

• The first Wolverine figure is just way too tall. + repaints
• Hulk is a mess. + repaints
• slit wrist Iron Fist
• too tall Spidey in black costume then the repaints.
• mini Magneto
• blue & yellow costume Wolverine, the first head was ugly but still that huge X buckle sucks
• Team X Wolverine... why just WHY??
• Mr. Fantastic is finally getting a better figure

[iceman09]

Daredevil, IMHO. He just looks weird in that mold.

well the wolverines aren't so bad but they can be somewhat better

Hulk wasn't deserving until the Red Hulk & the secret wars Hulk, Those stepped it up but when the Avengers pack comes around I will try to get three (modern Hulk, Grey Hulk & Rulk) loose Hulks from that pack to make repaints & add a bit of apoxie to make em the way Hulk should have been.

Iron Fist did look more natural with the swivel at the end of the sleeve & the paint didn't look weird but not enough to warrant any hate towards it.

Spidey is one of the only characters with the slim build figure that can pull it off.

Magneto wasn't tall enough I do agree.

Team X Wolverine looks like he had a weird tan line but it was nice to get a team X version of him.

Yep Mr. Fantastic should've had a slender figure because he was never a short & stocky kind of a guy.
