ML10 Black Panther Review!



Toybiz's Marvel Legends series ten Black Panther action figure.



Sculpt
Excellent. Along with Mr. Sinister this figure is the star of the wave. The sculpt, based on the armature of ML8 Ultimate Captain America, is extremely finely detailed. He's got a ripped physique, as he should. He has a nice pebbled texture that make it seem as if his costume is made from an animal hide, an inspired touch. Another dynamic and modern figure that shows just how far Marvel Legends has come in just a few years.

Paint
Okay. Okay, this figure is mostly unpainted and is naked plastic. He does have some costume detailing that's painted, but that's fairly standard for any toyline. There's an unattractive purple wash that's mainly apparant under a camera flash, but only to the naked eye on his boots. On my figure anyway.



Articulation
Excellent. A real action toy, he poses extremely well, and is a lot of fun. His POA are: neck hinge/swivel, front/back armpit hinges, ball shoulders, bicep swivels, double-hinged elbows, mid-forearm swivel cuts(along gloveline), wrist hinges, individual fingers articulated at the knuckle, ab hinge, waist swivel, ball hips, thigh swivel under the ball joint, double-hinged knees, calf swivels cuts(at the boot line), ankle hinges, toe hinges. I put the count at a whopping 39 bit I could see by some standards it being consided as 43.

Accessories
Good. He comes with a cape that pegs at the front, a flying stand, and a comic book.



Overall
Excellent. Black Panther comes out of this wave clearly one of the best MLs ever made. Why are you still reading this?! Go hunt him down!
