Doomsday DC Super Heroes (Mattel) - Series 2 Rated 4.90 stars by Henchmen4Hire This Doomsday is a TREMENDOUS improvement over the original 5-inch scale version. It looks just as impressive but has more articulation and height, traits the old one lacked. This looks better to me than even the other 6-7-inch Doomsday, AKA: The-Ridiculously-Expensive version. Why pay over $100 for that other one when you can get this one for about 9 bucks!
The Jagged Juggernaut stands a little over 6 1/2 inches, in perfect scale with ML figures, but I'm not so sure about the DCSH line he's in. Bizarro is taller than him, and last time I checked, Bizarro is as tall as Superman, and Superman is supposed to be smaller than Doomsday, something is screwy! In any case, Bizarro won't be standing for long if he tangles with this guy, hah. Doomsday is built like a rock, and weighs like one too....[See More]
Uuuuuh, ok, the feet in the picture I took look the same, but they aren''t! It''s just the angle of the shot that makes them look the same. I''m not insane yet! I swear!
Wonder Woman (Armored) Kingdom Come (DC Direct) - Basic Series Rated 5.00 stars by Henchmen4Hire Sometimes when you look at a figure, something in your black little soul says you MUST have it. Even if costs a hundred dollars, even if you have to get a second job, and even if you have to stay up through many nights on end writing reviews to earn it! The Wonder Woman from the Kingdom Come series is phenomenal! Even if you hate Wonder Woman (and may Zeus, Aries, and Bhuddah sit on your head if you do), you cannot hate this figure. I hate gold (prefer silver) but this figure almost makes me think I'm insane for doing so (how about a variant silver-armored Wonder Woman? Who wouldn't buy that?).
Diana stands perfectly in-scale with your Marvel Legends figures at a bit over 6 inches, a little taller (about 6 1/3)...[See More]
All fix''d! Let''s see if I can take her helmet off...yay, new project :P
Kitty Pryde Marvel Legends (Toy Biz) - Giant Man Series Rated 4.90 stars by Henchmen4Hire A question for you folks who paid over 20 dollars online for Kitty, did you think it was worth it? When I first saw her released, she looked as big as the other 6-inch Marvel Legends ladies. I guessed she's 20-something years-old now so it makes sense that she should be 6-inches, but she's actually shorter than that, by about a quarter-inch. Is she short in the comics or is this Kitty from a few years ago, when she was still a teenager?...and still called Shadowcat, hah. I dont know, but this is a great figure. I'm glad I waited to get mine for way less than 20 bucks though :P
Kitty stands about 5.75 inches to the top of her loose, dark-brown, flowing hair. It is very well-sculpted and has lighter-brown highlights. Her eyes are a smokey-grey and she has full, pouty, pink lips. She has...[See More]
Yikes, and to think I almost spend 15 bucks on the Invisible Woman! I needed her for a customs but that''s too short
Kingpin (White Jacket) vs Daredevil (Masked) Marvel Legends (Toy Biz) - Face Off Sets - Series 1 Rated 4.90 stars by Henchmen4Hire Glee overtakes a Marvel Legends collector's body when he hears about more villains being made, and when it's someone as large as The Kingpin, that happiness only grows, and grows, and grows like a bubble of joy, until it's burst by someone like that ugly Lady Deathstrike or the upcoming BAF Blob :( (and on that note, Kingpin makes an excellent base for a Blob custom, sacrifices must be made, so get to work!).
Kingpin towers over everyone else at just over 7 inches tall of massively awesome bulkiness. There's not much to say about detail since he just wears a white coat with grey pants, but he is still an impressive work of art nonetheless! His suit is seamed and pleated with wrinkles where they should be. The black dress-shoes have two golden clasps and he wears a large golden...[See More]
Captain America vs Red Skull Marvel Legends (Toy Biz) - Face Off Sets - Series 1 Rated 4.50 stars by Henchmen4Hire Yay, another Captain America. At least he's been kept down to only 4 Marvel Legends version: Series 1, Ultimate, Classic variant, and the Face-Off version. This newest Face-Off Cap is the best I've seen so far. He has the same body as the Ultimate Cap but with a much better original head-sculpt, more vibrant colors, and his original suit.
This Cap stands in at about 6.2 inches of stupendifurous gloriousness, if such an exalted adjective can be imagined. The entire blue/red suit is highly detailed with wrinkles, seams, cuts, and shading. This Cap's suit is very bright and colorful, with a glossy finish, while the Ultimate Cap has darker colors with a matte finish. The glove-cuffs are not too bulky and are long enough to cover the old brown gloves' base (which are still sculpted onto the...[See More]
Captain America vs Red Skull Marvel Legends (Toy Biz) - Face Off Sets - Series 1 Rated 4.00 stars by Henchmen4Hire The Red Skull! The mere mention of this psychopathic Nazi-madman is enough to send shivers down even Great Hitler's spine. His head is red, emaciated, cracked, and bony, looking like an actual skull (whether it's just the mask he wears or the result of being exposed to his Dust of Death , I don't know). I must say, for someone who supposedly is able to beat Captain America to a pulp, this guy doesn't look very impressive. He looks kinda scrawny compared to Cap.
Our skeletal superior stands a little over 6 inches tall. He wears some nifty blue/red body armor and a mocking grin. His eyes are completely yellow, teeth are white, there is a hole where his nose should be, and he has a slight overbite, lol. The head is nicely textured but his mouth is hollow, meaning you can see his neck...[See More]
Bizarro DC Super Heroes (Mattel) - Series 2 Rated 4.90 stars by Henchmen4Hire In a world of backwards talking, dim-witted super-clones, Bizarro sticks out like a sore thumb, a big dumb sore thumb. The Bizarro released for the 90's Superman cartoon (the greatest cartoon of all time) was very accurate to that show, but DC needed to release a new 6-inch 'Zarro to match the one in the comics. They did a good job but they gave him a super-ticked-off face! Those big yellow teeth are clenched and bared to the gums so he looks like he's seething with rage! The Bizarro I remember never got that angry, he always had a quizzical look on his face or a big dumb smile. This figure doesn't even have pupils, the eyes are completely yellow. Also, some genius decided it would be a good idea to paint some "oil" on his face. Why would they paint oil on his face!? Is he ticked-off...[See More]
I ended up snagging 2 of these in the Wal Mart clearence section, I have no idea what to do with them.
Young Avengers Marvel Legends (Toy Biz) - Box Sets Rated 5.00 stars by Henchmen4Hire Our Asguardian stands heroically, with satchel and stick in hand, at 6 inches tall. Even though these Young Avengers are as tall, and sometimes even taller, than the much older heroes, these kids somehow manage to still look like kids! The leaner muscle, lithe frames, and well-sculpted faces come together well and get the job done right, but let's get back to the stick. It's more of a staff, but is it a magic staff? Does it shoot freaky energy blasts? Wizards like to use staves to channel the Forces of Nature to do their bidding, so is this kid a wizard? Unless he can swing throw it like a lance or swing it like a hammer, he'd better know how to eat fire and spit lightning because no formidable enemy is going to be kept at bay by a stick! He also has a finely-crafted, silver-accented,...[See More]
Yup, he might make an even better Gambit! I don''t like the shoulders on the ML Gambit, and he''s too short. Asguardian is 6 inches even so he works :]
Oh, and where it says "Unless he can swing throw it like a lance", the word "swing" isnt supposed to be there, oops
Young Avengers Marvel Legends (Toy Biz) - Box Sets Rated 4.90 stars by Henchmen4Hire Hmmm...he dresses like the U.S. flag and carries a shield...who ever could this young Avenger be emulating? Who could possibly be this Avenger's hero and idol? The Hulk!? Wasp!? Superman of course! Ooops, wrong universe.
Young Patriot rises up like the star-spangled banner at a full 6.2 inches tall. Y'know, for heroes who are supposed to be kids, these guys are as tall, and even taller than their full-grown counterparts. Looks like someone's been eating their Wheaties. This is another very neat figure. Almost the entire paintjob is flawless, even the two little white stars on him are nicely painted. The problem is the little gold buttons on his jacket, some of the paint is off-center, but aside from that, everything looks good. The boots, gloves, and torso all have a soft matte finish....[See More]
I just took a Dremel to his feet and they look like normal human feet now.
Young Avengers Marvel Legends (Toy Biz) - Box Sets Rated 5.00 stars by Henchmen4Hire When are kids going to learn that messing around with gamma radiation is NOT a smart thing to do! If you DON'T want to be horribly disfigured then listen to your parents and DON'T go near the barrels of glowing slime! Dancing around a leaky particle accelerator is also not smart! Getting hit with plutonium isn't smart either! Of course, you might get lucky and turn green and hulk out like...the Hulk...I think there is a nuclear fission plant down a few miles that way! Hurry before that annoying neighbor kid gets there first!
Hulkling stands in at 7 inches of bulging green muscle. Mercifully, he has the intelligence and visual mercy to wear a nice black/grey suit instead of threadbare short-pants like another green hulk of larger, more brutish proportions. Our not-so-little hulkling...[See More]
