Dan Who? Reviews takes a look at the Marvel Legends Silver Surfer (Mini Comics Wave 2) figure, which is available from our sponsors, BigBadToyStore.com and Entertainment Earth.

I feel like they overestimate how excited we are for pinless updates. Don't get me wrong, I prefer it, but the fact that this is literally just a pinless repaint is a bit of a bummer. At least a new head sculpt, like a passive and angry face, woulda been much appreciated. But seriously, the fact that they didn't do him on another body is mind-boggling to me. It was a perfect chance to make a huge portion of the community really happy.

Definitely. Seriously, who at Hasbro thought it was a good idea to release him in this line with updated pinless joints but without the effects? I will take cosmic effects over pinless limbs any day of the week.

This would have been a way better update on RYV body, and even better would be if this were the first release of that SM2099 version of RYV body (obviously with new or old RYV forearms). In that case, it would force almost everyone to update their old Surfer.

I hate that they just keep pumping out Silver Surfers constantly with little interest in giving people the real updates, too short, wrong buck, but they just keep churning them out, Surfer Black, Galactus HasLab, Re-Release of the Walgreens, and now this, sure it's got the paint job we all deserved, and that's a delight, and it's pinless..that's nice, but it's just the same thing again and again, this is one of those cases were Hasguys just don't listen to the fans, it's like the entire fandom screaming stop! bigger please, yet they just keep trying to fool someone, we ain't fooled, Do I like the shiny yeah, but I'm still not replacing my Walgreens Surfer, I don't care enough. 

it's just not really better, dudes, just saying.
