Irn12At first glance it is everything one would want in a origin set of figures, big flat headed Hulk and a big white winged Thor instead of the metallic look to the wings. The Hulk is the biggest figure. The Thor figure is nicely colored but has a paint defect on some of the faces, not easily noticed but some have a pale discoloration. The Ant Man with this set is much smaller than Wasp so he's more in scale with the ant. The ant is not in scale but much larger than if in scale with the 3.75" figures so I don't understand the point of not making Pym larger and the ant a little larger. The reason I think is to have a different scale than has been released so one can have a growing effect when placing several of the figures together. Also why not add several ants? This had been done in other...[

Racoon21This figure is amazing. I think this is one of hasbro's biggest accomplishments. The head is sculpted nicely and the figure is painted very well. Painted kind of plain but not too terrible. It talks and the eyes glow orange. I would have preferred ether a white or blue LED light. This figure is huge!!!! Even bigger and bulkier than the old toy biz BAF. Standing at a whopping 19" while the BAF is 16" tall. The only thing this figure lacks that the BAF doesn't is the paint work. This figure looks more like a kids toy( in a good way) while the BAF looks like a collectors item. This marvel universe Galactus is now more expensive than the BAF, but I got him for cheap on an eBay auction for $86 dollars and I also got the BAF on an eBay auction for 89.99. So I paid more for the BAF then. So...[

BobTheEggThis is such a great figure and it's surprisingly easy to find so, if you collect Marvel Universe figures or want to start collecting, there's no reason to pass it up.
This Ghost Rider's mold was so good that it has been reused over and over again in the Marvel Universe line. That's because 1) there's a great amount of articulation on it (waist swivel!), 2) there are a lot of characters with costumes that can be modified from it, and 3) there are so many creases, folds, and little details on the figure that it's just fantastic.
Ghost Rider himself has a great clear fiery head, with a creepy smiling skull that really captures the nature of his demonic stare. You can see the orange hughes in his eye sockets, simulating the flames within. Ponies with rainbow wings can also be seen if you...[

Deadpool / TaskmasterMarvel Universe - Fury Files (Hasbro) - Comic Packs - Greatest Battles
Rated

BobTheEggI am very, very impressed with this two-pack. Though it may come with a reprint comic book as opposed to display bases, the two figures more than make it a great buy.
Deadpool has a very nice paint job, and a comical facial expression that suits the character quite well. He can store all of his accessories on his body, which is very nice, and he seems to hold them all quite firmly, more or less. Plus, he includes two katanas (of course), a hunting knife, and a pistol (not sure what model). He's also nicely articulated and comes with a lot of original pieces not recycled from old figures, which is nice.
Taskmaster also has fantastic, vibrant paint apps on his costume, which add a lot of excitement to the cleverly recycled parts making up his mold. He can hold all of his well painted...[

BobTheEggI found this box set in the discount isle at Wal-Mart for $15.00. I thought it was a reasonable price and I really liked the characters that were featured. I had just purchased the first issue of Rocket Raccoon at the time. After opening the box, I could tell that I would be satisfied with my purchase. The paint on all the figures looked very good. Drax's tattoos were cleanly applied, and the textures on Rocket's fur looked amazing. My only big problem was with articulation.
Typically, a three pack of Marvel Universe figures includes three figures, right? So I thought this pack would come with three figures. Instead, the only real figures you get are Drax and Starlord. I love Rocket Raccoon and Groot, but they're more like accessories than action figures. Groot is just a tiny statue and...[

themarvellegendcollecterHello realmers today I am going to review the Marvel Universe scarlet spider.This figure is awesome especially since I am a fan of the clone saga which nobody that I know likes.
The sculpt of the figure is thee same body mold as most MU's like 2 pk Daredevil and bullseye but does have the ankle pouches and belt like the comics.He also has a rubber jacket and it does not hinder articulation plus has the big eyes like 90's style mcfarlane spidey or like scarlet spider in the comics does.
The articulation the the same as all MU figures which is cool.In all I recommend this to any marvel universe collector or a scarlet spider fan....[

MarvelLadI Picked Up Red Hulk Late Last Year And He Was The First Marvel Universe Figure I Got Which Sparked Off Collecting Them.
For A Small Figure He Has Amazing Detail And I Think The Makers Have Done A Really Good Job, The Only Fault With His Is Not Getting Him To Stand Up Without A Hunch. Other Than That He's A Really Good Addition To My Collection And I'm Sure If You Get Him You'll Be Pleased. He Fits In Well With The Line And The Articulation Is Spectacular For Such A Small Figure, The Paint Aps Are Nice Such As The Shading On The Pants And On Some Areas Of The Torso And Body, If You Want A Comic Accurate Rulk You'll Only Have To Give Him Black Toe Nails.
I Reccomend That If You See This Guy Definately Pick Him Up!

AzraelAlright, so as I expected from the beginning, We've had about a million variants of Spider-Man in the Marvel Universe line already. Regular, dark blue variant, black costume, red and black costume, black costume without the highlights, Spider-Man and his amazing friends, and upside down spider-man, with a couple more variants on the way, but none of them are like this; House of M Spider-Man. I've always liked this costume, it's an awesome twist on the classic red and blue duds Spidey always sports. He uses the Black Spider-man body with a slightly retooled head. All his webbing is painted on, which is pretty well done. That's right Hasbro, I'm swallowing my pride, you've done a good job (now I'm waiting to say it about a Marvel Legends figure). Anyway, his articulation is the exact same...[
