Captain Marvel came out pretty good. The head sculpt is great, and I think I am finally used to it enough being displayed with the rest of the group. My lightning bolt has some bleed of yellow into the red, but it's not distracting. The belt is great because of the extra length, you can really adjust it to hide the waist seam in the suit. The cape is mostly very nice as well. It has a wire in it for posing; if only it had a longer collar with the wire so you could flip it down... But's really nice quality. If FTC sells it separately, I will buy one to swap the elastic for a yellow rope. Solid figure.
Captain Marvel Junior is also a solid figure. I've mentioned CM and CMjr elsewhere, but just to reiterate, FTC really did a great job a great, modern head sculpt without losing the Mego feel of the figure. The Korak body should now be the defacto teen body, and it's great because you don't have the arm tension issue that the regular adult bodies have. The cape has the same issue with the collar (they all do), but that also means the overall quality is pretty good too. Perhaps we will get a new version with a red cape and longer collar.
Captain Sivana. Wow, that noggin is pretty big. It actually looks better to me on the small body, because it accentuates the cartoonish nature of the character. An okay figure that looked better in megowgsh's pictures than in person.
Mary Marvel. Oh, she will get her own post
