I favored the latest She-Hulk figures in Marvel Legends fairly a bit, however I’m a sucker for a extra traditional look and ordered this model as quickly as I might after I noticed the Iron Man retro carded line. Let’s check out the most recent She-Hulk!


I wasn’t shopping for toys or watching the Iron Man cartoon on the time so I’m unfamiliar with the origins of those retro playing cards, however trying this up on-line it’s a reasonably devoted recreation of one of many Iron Man line card backs. The illustration is sort of placing and the cardboard is good and difficult. I nearly really feel unhealthy recycling it.



She-Hulk comes with few equipment together with two units of fingers and a bent gun. The bent gun is enjoyable and seems like a traditional super-hero transfer when some dickhead will get of their face foolishly brandishing a firearm. The fingers swap simply, although a humorous factor about the way in which she’s constructed is the little white arm bands are separate items that may come off. The fists are properly sculpted, however the wrist isn’t fairly as straight as I’d like for punching poses.

The sculpting on Jen is fairly improbable with an particularly lovely face portrait that captures the enjoyment of the character completely. She’s additionally appropriately enormous and impressively muscular. The hair additionally captures the epic mane as drawn by Byrne again within the day.




The costume selection appeals to me as a result of it takes me again to how she appeared after I was most studying comics within the ’80s. The articulation is fairly good with good vary on the double elbows and knees, however it’s missing a bit with the ball and socket mid-torso wobble.

I like that joint in principle, nevertheless it by no means will get near the vary of movement you get from a hinge. The hair is sort of beautiful, nevertheless it does severely hinder head motion with little aspect to aspect, however not a lot trying up or down. It’s a commerce off for all that wonderful ’80s hair I assume. She-Hulk has:
- Swivel/hinge shoulders, wrists, hips, and ankles
- Double hinged knees and elbows
- Ball and socket head and mid-torso
- Swivel biceps, thighs and boots

The opposite situation I’ve is the ankles are slightly unfastened and the plastic tender, so that they weren’t very supportive balancing the determine in combat poses. The paint is actually strong, largely solid within the applicable colours, however the face print is actually spectacular as per regular with this line currently. I really feel like there’s a little bit of blush on the cheeks and the eyes are vivid and glossy. The inexperienced pores and skin is nearly radioactively inexperienced, which feels a bit on the brilliant aspect, however I’m assuming they’re referencing the present or the toy right here. It’s not too off from what I would like. I didn’t discover it enjoying with the determine, however you’ll be able to decide up a little bit of a distinction between the elbow and knee colours than the remainder of the inexperienced legs and arms.

Total, even with just a few nitpicks about articulation and vary of motion, that is nonetheless a shocking determine. I can not wait to get a repaint in FF colours. I hope in the event that they get there they’ll embrace an alternate head with both an indignant or impartial face for selection. A flowing hair sculpt that will get out of the way in which when posing her punching can be nice too. At any charge, she’s head and shoulders higher than the earlier legends efforts and one among my favourite figures this yr. The shelf presence is improbable.
