I'd go a step further: virtually 70% of the female figures need to be re-done. They've done incredible, outstanding work on their faces- the bodies now need to match. The females need to be in scale with their male counterparts, not look as if they belong to some other companie's line. Case in point: Cap from Secret Wars to Power Princess to Ms Marvel-Warbird (Target). Carol here looks like a kid compared to these two. If we agree that this is more or less a correct rendition of Captain America, then what can we say about them??

Consistent height scaling across figures is not something only Hasbro messes up. Look at McFarlane.

Ms. Marvel and Dark Ms. Marvel are too short compared to some Legends figures (people love huge looking male characters; Cap is out of scale, sorry). But the figures, besides the butterfly shoulders, look excellent. They are my top two Marvel Legends figures of all time. I am skeptical they will ever produce better versions of these characters before the line ends (look how long it took them to do the real Ms. Marvel to begin with).

Yeah I had a huge issue with both the new Warbird/Dark Miss Marvel figures. Face sculpt wise they were amazing even though the Warbird head was a bit on the small size. My main issue here was the size. As many know here I'm a sucker for the technical data. So previous Carol Danvers and Karla Sofen figures were done on the original Moonstone model. The model itself is literally named after one of the characters. At least among the ML community. I think technically they called it the Powerhouse model when it first came out. Whatever the case that model fit the character it portrays. Both women are on the taller side. Coming in around the 6 foot mark and both having powers that would give them the larger more muscular physique. Then they go and update the Moonstone figure on a new retooled, improved articulation, sturdier Moonstone body. I was thinking great. In the midst of all the rumors of an updated Warbird figure and the much anticipated Dark Miss Marvel figure I was thinking they were going to make good use of this newer model. Then they go and do this thing with the new ultra articulated female model. Now I'm not opposed to progress. Actually I'm very happy they made this model. I just have a problem with when and how they chose to use it. First off of the two new Ultra articulated female models they created they chose to use the smaller of the two on both characters who are both larger women. And then honestly there really was no need for this particular body model for this character. They both fly, punch things and shoot energy beams from their hands. They don't need as much articulation as say a Spider-Woman or Black Widow or Black Cat. If anything all they really needed was some clearance on the head sculpt so they could look straight forward in flying poses. Which they've shown they are very capable of. So stacking them up against previous figures of themselves and then even other female characters they literally look like teenagers. And to add an extra little twist there is actually a taller, thicker version of the ultra articulated female model but they go and use it for the Phoenix figure who is statistically supposed to be much shorter and smaller than either of those two. It's almost like someone from the "D" side of the R&D department made a conscious specific effort to do a smaller and larger version of the body to be used to differentiate between smaller and larger female characters but someone in the "R" department dropped the ball and mixed the two models up and used them for the wrong characters. Seriously Hasbro needs some real help in the research department. Preferable someone that knows how to use a few more resources than Google Images for their research.

I'm still a bit on the fence here with this Mystique. I've always been pretty satisfied with my Walgreens exclusive Mystique, but knowing myself, I'll probably end up trying to sell that one and pick this one up. I guess it's the compulsive collector in me.

Lol. I'm the exact opposite. I need this new Mystique because of the new legs. Simply put I loathe those skinny rubbery thin chicken legs on that Kate body model. And high five to anyo e who can make a figure stand for a decent period of time without falling down a dominoing half your display. I have yet to do so. At least not without a stand. Honestly I would re-buy every older female figure made on the Kate body that was remade with the Shreik model. It would be great to get like an alternate head sculpt or maybe even a Skrull sculpt but it really doesn't matter. Hasbro has me over a barrel here.

...Huh, they've never done such a straight-across bicep swivel cut on normal human arms before (or at least, not during the modern period of the line). Looks kinda weird.

I think it's fine since it's right at the end of the gloves, I'm not getting it but not because of that joint

I'm so glad though for everyone who doesn't have a Mystique they finally released her again, the first one was hard to get, and she's such an important character, surprised it took them this long. The VHS one doesn't count.
