Marvel Legends She Hulk Review

I went on a Hulk bender of sorts.  I picked up She Hulk first for $15.99 then I got all the older Marvel Universe Hulks for only $10 each.  I've got to say I do not mind paying the money for these figures because they are nice and bulky for the price and they seem to dwarf the other figures in their line.  I really wasn't planning on opening She Hulk until they released the Marvel Universe version but the cardboard back and bubble took up so much space.  I justify opening this one by saying it'll save me room by having it open. 

NECA Sin City Miho Review

When I got Lion-O I also bought this toy for only six bucks on Amazon.  It was under the recommendations listings so I thought I had nothing to lose.  This toy blows.  I wish I had saved the six dollars for eating out with my friends.

Looks pretty horrible in the box.  Since this was NECA I had higher expectations for some reason.  When I see NECA toys on the pegs they look a lot better than this and also boast a much higher price tag.  But I guess I get what I paid for.  I'll talk about more of the flaws other pictures.  

NECA C.Viper Review

I actually ordered Crimson Viper and the Marvel Universe Mystique at the same time.  After I added Mystique to my cart, Amazon recommended NECA's C.Viper for about ten dollars.  I couldn't resist since I have Amazon Prime's free two day shipping.  I should have bought the Ken and Ryu toys when they were cheaper, but gone are the days when me and my friends would spend drunken weekends playing fighting games. 

In comparison when I see NECA toys in stores they are usually at least fifteen dollars and I've never seen the Street Fighter line in any name brand store.  Buying a NECA Guile, Ken, or Ryu from the same Street Fighter 4 line commands double, triple, or even quadruple the price of what I paid for C.Viper.  Sometimes I get lucky on BigBadToystore.com because they have some great bi-monthly sales.  I have to be quick about getting a figure  because BBTS is a popular toy website and stuff sells out fast. 

***FEEL FREE TO SKIP THIS PARAGRAPH.  DOESN'T HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE ACTUAL REVIEW***

What I've found myself doing this year is buying the female figures for a toy line because they are a lot cheaper than the male figures. Female figures have the similar articulation and quality control as their male counterparts.  I also use the cheap female figures to gauge on whether or not I want to shell out the extra money to buy the main characters I really want.  This method worked with DCUC Power Girl who was only an amazing five dollars on Amazon.  I've gone on to own eight more DC figures, with most of those being female since they only cost around eight to twelve dollars.  On the other hand I bought a Play Arts Yuffie from Advent Children for only ten dollars on Amazon.  I really wanted the Cloud with motorcycle but he costs about fifty bucks.  Once I got Yuffie I was happy with the figure but I really can't see myself shelling out the extra forty dollars for Cloud.  I like to think of these cheaper female figures as an inexpensive sample of what's to come.  Plus I never noticed how many "male" figures I have in my collection. 

 

Here is C.Viper in box.  Trying to take a picture of her in box proved to be difficult because of the glare.  I also do not own a light box or have lights set up to take pictures just yet so please bear with me.  Having C.Viper in package did her no justice.  She didn't look too appealing and almost too dirty in some places.  The pose she came in looked like she didn't want to fight and had her staring off into space.
