That face reveal. Oh god my Eyes my eyes!!!!!
I actually like the smiley sculpt for She Hulk. She was generally drawn to be very vibrant and happy, with a confident "Billboard"ish smile during those 80s and early 90s covers. I think that's the look they were going for, at least.

Totally agree. Such a great figure to look at in person. I feel the same way about the new Cable.
I find that I favor painless knees and elbows more because they don't warp over time. I have had multiple figures knees bow when posed in a position deeper than an 'A' stance. Heating them up to fix the bowing then always losens the joints. Then I have to pop the pins, compress the slots where the joints fit to get friction in the joint again.

Exactly! I think Anthony likes to ignore this very valid explanation 😅
QOTD: I like her white & purple leotard costume. I think I'll wait for that version, preferably with slightly darker green skin, this one looks abit too "neon/glowy" imo.
I'm partial to her MvC appearance, vertical stripe leotard and track shoes or attorney at law suit.
My favorite She Hulk is from the John Bryn run. My mom got me some of the comics from a drug store. two were She Hulk. I didn't think I would like it sense it stared a girl, but it was funny and well drawn. I'm happy I got it. She Hulk is a bit cocky so her smiling most of the time fits. My favorite look for She Hulk is her Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 look.
This is a great figure. My only complaint is that they should add a second alternate head. A more neutral head sculpt. But it's still a nice figure.
I’m a customizer and recently used this figure to make a Fantastic Four She-Hulk. I was able to greatly increase the movement in the neck and torso by simply removing plastic. I puzzles me why Hasbro doesn’t make it that way in the first place as it would save money and make the figure better. This issue is basically universal on all Legends as I mainly use their figures for customs. Lazy company.

I do the same for every new marvel legends. The range could be improved by soo much more. They just do a lazy job and have low engineering skills. But I think the main reason is that they don't want to chip off too much or the pegs would pop easily, kinda like import figures. 🤷♂️

@@suhtangwong I don't know about Hasbro, but I remember for Mattel, one of the issues they kept running into with the MOTU Classics line was that they needed to still make the figures to all of the safety and construction standards of normal children's toys, even though it was marketed as an "adult collectible." It wouldn't surprise me if Hasbro has similar issues, like minimum thickness requirements or something. Or they could just not be thinking it through very well. Wouldn't surprise me (they started throwing drop down hips on the GI Joes and Power Rangers, for example).

Q of the Day 1: My favorite look for She-Hulk is the iconic purple and white leotard that she’s sporting on both the first Hasbro ML She-Hulk and the Marvel Select She-Hulk. This one will do, though. Q of the Day 2: Normally, I prefer a neutral facial expression, but I think Hasbro made the right call here. I love everything about this head sculpt. I do have a weird thing for green ladies (and ladies with green hair), so I am terribly thrilled by this figure. That only seems to apply to comics and anime, though. Green hair doesn’t translate well to real life, so I prefer brunettes (and married one). 😂

But then they wouldn't be able to sell her again in 3 months.
I like the stern expression the best. This is a nice figure, and I’m getting it. I swear it’s a trend in action figure companies to make smiling expressions. I mean, even McFarlane is doing it. At least add an extra head with a different expression if you’re gonna do the goofy smiling one.
I think this She Hulk looks like she jumped right out of a comic page. The billboard smile is good as she’s known for being a bright and happy hulk. Definitely think the torso needs a little more articulation. Also my favorite She Hulk look is the purple and white leotard that the Blob BAF wave she Hulk figure has.
I really like this She Hulk a lot... my favorite She Hulk figure is the Fantastic Four suited one. Also, the knee pad off color is not as bad as under bright lights. In person, it's barely noticeable.
Anthony, you're such a hardass that when I see you smiling I get all giddy.
My favorite She-Hulk is her Fantastic Four costume. I do not care for the pinless joint I don't think it's that important, but some people bitch about it endlessly. I like her face, it reminds me of John Byrne era that for me it's the standard for her. I really want a Marvel Select version of her, but maybe I'll get her, but the different colored knees and elbows really bothers me
I like the more modern look outfit wise, the one represented in MvC3 and Hasbro’s first figure of her all the way back in the Blob wave (still a pretty good figure honestly), but John Byrne’s is my favorite take character and general artstyle wise I get why she would have the head she does cuz She-Hulk’s average expression is probably something like that but without an alternate head it makes action shots/displays awkward lol I totally agree
This is really good She-Hulk, my second favorite version. I do prefere the torn white shirt and jeans look as well. Also I am pro pinless all the way! There are plenty if pinless figures that have their joint colors match the rest of the limbs perfectly fine. Seems like Hasbro just gets it wrong sometimes.

Pinless is still better, yeah the mismatched knee pads suck but two holes on each side doesn’t? Lol
Questions of the day: love Jen in the Fantastic Four and look forward to the inevitable repaint, and I'd prefer multiple head/face options. Oh, as for your figure falling over at the start of the video, I've had her for a few weeks now and she randomly falls over A LOT (without being messed with). Also, my wife hates the diaphragm rotation, says it makes the torso look ugly and weird. And I think your review is fair: objectively there are issues (seven), subjectively it's the best She-Hulk we've ever got and I love the character (so maybe eight?). Solid review as always, thanks! 👍
there are some action figures I like so much I get more then one of , this is one of them.

i just love all my figures looking like they took headshots applyig for marvel's live action.... when i think of she hulk this outfit and smiling face is what i imagine but it will look strange next to a screaming hulk figure so other heads or at least face plates would be usefull...
A smiling face fits her a lot, but having a 2nd head in that case would be great for variety. Which is why I was hoping that her skin color would end up being similar to the previous She-Hulk. That would've effectively given us 3 usable head-sculpts for each buck, and all of them very different (stoic, smiling, and angry). But of course, they had to make her a dramatically different neon green instead. It would have been SO easy for them to increase the overall value of the figure by making it compatible with the other one (assuming multiple heads were just not on the table). She doesn't match any of the Banner Hulks either, which is also frustrating, because just about any time they are on panel together I'm pretty sure she is the same color as him. She-Hulk is one of my favorite characters, but this is one of my least favorite outfits, so I might just wait until they do a FF version or something.
To answer both questions i like the Grey she hulk from FF wave largely in part due to the face sculpt, it's very expressive which is how i prefer most of my ACTION figures.
She really needed two head sculpts. I will be looking online for a more serious looking one. Anyone know the paint color that would match her skin tone?
Don't care much about she hulk, but figure wise i feel this one is really good. Really like the hair and face on this, though i wish there was an alternate angry head. Apart from that, the mismatched knees and elbows and limited range in the torso irks me.
Some characters I'm cool with smiling heads, adds character and variety to the dower serious characters on a shelf.
Anthony, I know you said you don't care for pinless joints, but which method do you prefer? Insert molded like Hasbro, or SHF/Mafex style?

Never insert molded. Either like shf or traditional pins
The fisted hands on this are sculpted at a weird angle when on the figure. Went back and looked at the other repaint release that wasn’t apart of the Fantastic 4 wave and the hands are the same. Not sure why but they look angled downward in a way that doesn’t look natural
Put a splat of blue tack on your rotating base. Stick figures to it. That way, they won't fall off.

If they made a brand new body why didn't they give her the the inverted ab crunch.

I'm okay with the slight discoloration if it means pinless joints. And as far as durability, my toddler has been playing with VHS Cyclops and has put it through more abuse in 2 months than I would have in 2 decades, yet the joints have held up well. 🙂
They did superb job on that hair! Legs...Tubular, dude!
I would like to have the John Byrne F4 She-Hulk. In fact I might use this one to repaint into the F4 costume and not get a second one to keep it original... As for the face I love it however I do agree it doesn't look great for fights - and I don't buy action figures to leave them vanilla-posed. And agree 100% about the pins: it doesn't matter after all it's still a toy. I guess it only matters if the design has different colors (like Spider-Man) otherwise it doesn't matter one bit...

It's the point of rotation. The ballpeg that's inside the hip isn't positioned correctly in Black Widow, and many figures, plus the opening is small, so it just doesn't move much.
Got her in my pile of loot and had been looking forward to getting her,but just now seeing from your review,those knees and elbows really seem to stick out! Otherwise I’m liking how she looks. Hopefully I’ll be able to see past the knees and elbows once I have her
Soooo how are your figures coming along? Can’t wait to review them.
She's probably the best She-Hulk for Marvel Legends that we've gotten
I didn't mind these painless joints before but after watching your reviews, I can't unsee them now 😅
Overall I like the look of this figure. The facial expression matches her personality, but an alt head would've been welcome. Jada's Street Fighter Ken Masters has a rubbery material for the hair. Hasbro could've done the same and reduced the volume of it below the base of the skull. Maybe a swapable hair piece. I also think she should've had a ball jointed waist. Hasbro not being able to colour match pinless knees and elbows to arms and legs is weird. Jada do it fine. For me pinless joints just look cleaner and I have had no issue with bowed legs or looseness. I have had loose joints on pinned figures.
Thanks for your review on this one Anthony. I can't see past the knees. This isn't a collectible. It is a remolded bottle of Irish Spring soap.
Really appreciate the honest reviews and that you hit almost every figure.

The mid 2000s costume is probably my favorite. The blob baf and MvC3 design. For heads, ideally I'd like a neutral and an expressive or dynamic one. Something appropriate to the character. Smile She hulk works for this version for sure. Grimace is solid for Cable. It doesn't help that there's no standardization, it's dumb luck if we get a head that can fit both scale, color, and peg size on a previous version of the same character, then we could just get different heads and expressions to collect and mix and match.
Overall I love this figure. I'm looking forward to a white and purple bodysuit version and a new first appearance She Hulk. Really can't wait for a new red She hulk, like the MU version hopefully,

Seems like ML loves the "1-step forward 2-steps backward" approach with their female figures. A single point of articulation at the torso on a character that has absolutely nothing design-wise that would interfere with another diaphragm joint at the waist is borderline criminal lmao
I'm actually surprised u didn't cover how GUMMY this figure is. Initially I thought I just had a defect but, its a constant thing with this figure from the other reviews I've seen. Aside from that and the amazing head sculpt (although I wish they gave us more options), this figure is a pretty big disappointment from the neck down. Single ball torso is designed horribly, the double ball neck joint is actually is pretty decent, but it's hindered by needless extra plastic hindering its movement.

A Hasbro figure could be total ass but they tell you "but it's pinless," as if that somehow fixes everything wrong with the figure. Yay! The sides of the limbs look more seemless! But it still looks like a Happy Meal toy, yay!
I can pretty much guarantee that Hasbro has a "no big boobs" mandate.
Since you complain about the boob shape, can you do a Photoshop to show how you would like it to look? Asking for a friend. My favorite look for She Hulk would be the one that looks like a one-piece bathing suit where the openings for the legs go high on the hips.
