I love how every few years we get a new She-Hulk figure that is an improvement over the last. Jennifer Walters is a nuanced character who has been portrayed in a variety of different ways by different creative teams. Choosing a single version to represent her is truly an impossible task, especially because the visual differences are so subtle. To me, this newest Marvel Legends figure represents the She-Hulk that I was first exposed to in the early 90's run of Sensational She-Hulk during the John Byrne era. Now, this isn't necessarily my favorite version of She-Hulk to read (the comedic elements and early-90s vibes just aren't my thing).. but visually this is still the most iconic and timeless She-Hulk to me. It also is a great representation of her first 1996 Toy Biz action figure. I don't think she ever had a toy connection to Iron Man like this current release suggests, but it's a great figure all the same. (I hope we get a purple/blue repaint of Julia Carpenter on this card next. That would make sense). Let's check out She-Hulk below!
She-Hulk comes with two sets of hands and a crumpled gun accessory.
Time for some Group and Comparison Pics!
Here is She-Hulk with two recent She-Hulk figures: MCU (2022) and Fan Channel (2021).
Cheers!
Really want to see this mold in red
ReplyDeleteI've already cracked her apart, gave her a repainted abdomen from the Fan Channel version, and bare feet plus a GIANT, green rack that someone has resin casts of on eBay. X D
ReplyDeleteOnly downside is, she loses the hugeness of her butt.
