The old Diamond Select Retro figures....not as great out of the boxes...

Yeah, the Famous Covers gloves and boots for Logan were noticeably big. Overall, though, the unmade figures like Wolvie and Daredevil did a decent job of approximating what Mego probably would have done (I went for the classic Mego look for mine, though I used an actual Mego body for each of the secret identity heads and outfits). -

One thing I noticed about the updated Cap body suit, it that it doesn't really stretch. I had planned on trying to put it on a larger torso like a JAKKS WWE torso, but there is no way it would fit.
I ended up putting it on a type S body with upgraded arms for the added shoulder width.Leave a comment:

I only dealt with the Spider-Man and Cap sets. Cap seemed to be pretty much issue free. Spider-Man had a minor issue with the comics accurate head being really small. To me anyway. Other than that is seemed fine.Leave a comment:

So...a while back, I managed to pick up 3 sets in box...
They are gorgeous in box...very colorful packaging, pretty to display...
I got Wolverine, DD, and the exclusive Cap.
Opened Wolverine today, and man....what a mess...I'm trying to wrap my head around some of the choices they made piecing this set together...
the awful mask, the giant boots, and gloves...the brown costume being too orange...the only normal hands being only for the brown costume...
I figured maybe the civilian outfit might be ok, nah...his jacket is too tight, completely stiff so as to not be able to move the arms much at all and the jeans are so tight they barely fit the figure.. and the SKIN COLOR! what the hell..
I'm thinking maybe these were not meant to be removed from the package? But the Spiderman set was great...
Sorry, rant over...
