The face looks a little off to pretty much everyone, it seems like. Because it is. On Facebook JC Hong said that's not the final head sculpt in the photos there, so the production figure should look more like Alfred Molina..

I hope this is a comment for Dwight Stall, in case he sees it, instead of me, since I lamented it's exclusion above. I believe you're right, and I appreciate you bringing the conversation back to Hammerhead, since it was getting a little off topic. I passed along something Dwight has said several times in relation to guns as accessories in general. In case it wasn't clear with my use of "whatever that means," I don't understand the application of Dwight's philosophy in some cases, nor do I always agree with it (ray guns with Spiderman Noir and Deadpool 2 Deadpool. Seriously?). I also won't try to guess what happened behind the scenes that led to the Thompson's exclusion in this case.

Unlikely. Conan is licensed to Marvel. Hasbro could theoretically make Conan figures based on the Marvel comics, but in order to do that, they would have to make an additional deal with the owners of the IP.

Dwight Stall has said that he doesn't like to put realistic guns in with a figure unless it's 100% appropriate for the character, whatever that means. That said, what Modaddydok says here is completely correct. GI Joe Classified has mostly moved away from the futuristic guns in favor of more realistic looking firearms, and I believe the last Marvel Legends figure Hasbro released with realistic guns (aside from the lack of muzzle detail) was The Hood just six or seven months ago. @SpiderS if we get to the end of 2022 or the middle of 2023 with no Legends figures (comics or MCU) packed with realistic looking guns, I may start to have the same feeling as you, but your "fact" about the next decade or so is just speculation. Edit: Erivera94 just put up a review of the Falcon and the Winter Soldier "flashback" Winter Soldier figure scheduled for release this spring. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ZbbJijNQVc The pistols are kinda iffy, but that rifle looks pretty gosh darn realistic to me. So...yeah. That didn't last very long.

Julia Carpenter became the second Madame Web in 2010 or 2011.

We're not Hasbro. This is a Marvel fan forum connected to a news site.

The bat and the brass knucks are pretty great, but I would have rather seen Hasbro retool that Tommy gun to have a drum magazine and included it with the figure.

I see that Siryn has an open mouth in the artwork there. 🙄

The stands the Legends team uses at cons are bean shapes cut from sheets of clear acrylic plastic, and the figures' feet are hot glued to it.

Sculpted lines with a wash? Nah. It can't be.

This thread has more than run it's course by now.

Damn shame. Damn shame. Last time my wife went skiing (about twenty years ago), she wound up in the hospital with a broken collar bone, a couple broken ribs, and contusions to her lungs, liver, and spleen. That was in the French Alps, too. Treacherous there.

Probably because it's more iconic, being from the 2002 movie and all.

Gonna have to think really hard about that Wong. I've wanted a figure of him for a while, too, but yeah, his head is probably about 5% too small.

You would buy that goofy thing?

I can almost forgive the Hawkeye headsculpts, but that dog looks like something I would have drawn when I was nine.

Marvel Legends have been super inconsistent with height since...well...always. No reason to fix that now, said someone in design probably.

I think that's more than enough politics for one thread. As tempting as it may be to talk about that stuff, please remember that Marvelousnews really isn't the place for it. Thanks for playing, kids.

Last April there was a 4 1/2 hours "Fan Fest" on the Pulse Youtube channel to show collectors everything they would have been showing off to industry and press had Toy Fair 2021 happened. I would expect that again, but hopefully we don't have to wait until April for it.

Voted for Armor. She's been a favorite for a while.

We've gotten looks at thisMarvel Select figure from a couple other reviewers, and GeekHangover reviewed the Marvel Legends version of Spidey in this suit, but this is the first time we're seeing a review from him of the Marvel Select figure.

Now that we've gotten four or five figures of her dad, we need a figure of Sin.

See Lord_Scarglow's post above.

@JohnF @memocromatico You guys go ahead and disagree about the scale of Stormbreaker all you want, but don't let it turn into an argument and don't let it consume this thread. I know we're not quite there yet, so I'm asking you both to keep it that way. Thanks.
