Has there ever been one certain figure that always caught your eye when looking at your collection? With me it changes, for one odd reason or another. This time around, it's my Marvel Select Daredevil figure.
Great figure. I was never a big Daredevil fan though I did have the Bullseye-Elektra series back in the 80s. I became a big fan of Daredevil after the Netflix series. Fantastic character development and story telling.
Growing up we had lots of cool superhero toys to collect. There was never a shortage of Batman, Superman or Spiderman figures in the toy aisles. Mainstream characters got all the love. Dudes like Daredevil, not so much. That all changed in the mid to late 80's (Mattel Secret Wars) and in 1990 Toy Biz would start releasing their seemingly neverending line of Marvel Superheroes that gave us action figures of everybody from Daredevil to Deathlok.
I usually don't do bootleg action figures, especially after my bad Spiderman Legends experience. That guy ultimately ended up in the trash. I took the chance on this CT Toys Wolverine figure on the strength of YouTube and positive eBay reviews. Glad I did! CT Toys ( MAFEX) hits different. The character specific colored box art and design are displayed prominently on all sides of the packaging and has the look and feel of an oversized NES video game. If that makes any sense. The overall presentation screams 80's Marc Silvestri. You get a lot here. Three sets of hands ( including attached set) , two head sculpts, hanging removed cowl and a display stand. It's pretty insane. Also,You won't have to worry about bruised fingertips or adversely bending your action figure when extracting.Wolverine and contents can be removed and replaced easily due to the loose fitting plastic figure and accessory...
Cool figure. Love that his weapon can be posed.
ReplyDeleteIt's one of my favorite figures right now.
