I find what works for me in shortening them and actually improves articulation at the hip area is to just swap out the thigh and knee part with the original first MU female thigh part. The upper thigh area on the first female legs are much more tapered than these X-23 style thighs, and about 1/8 of an inch shorter. Once in, they fit and move better and you really aren't losing anything in the posing ability.

Woot, Liftoff scored me a SW and a pair of Shulkies, then I found Kang and Punny afterwards myself. Kang is stupendously nice, Punny is overall very nice due to being on the Cmdr buck, and the Shulkie buck is extremely nice. Except for whatever the hell is going on with her knees. WTF is with the flare-out they keep putting on these MU figs that makes them look terrible at the knee?

Finally found Punisher. Man, these figures are back to the way they used to be. AWFUL. His legs are bent weirdly. His neck is super long. The ugly mid torso joint is loose. He can't even hold his own gun. What a bummer. How did it take six months to get these figures out? I'm really hoping this is a fluke and this line didn't peak a couple waves ago and it's going back downhill.

You must have gotten a defective one.

I'm getting him in a trade plus Beta Ray Bill & Kraven.

I saw my second sighting of wave 19 at TRU today. Only issue I have with Punisher is those small pistols, but he holds his machine gun perfectly. I replaced the pistols with MJ's Desert Eagles and they fit perfectly in his holsters, but did trim a tiny bit on both hands to get the trigger fingers seperated. Gave the Punisher pistols to ScarJo BW and they fit better in her holsters.

Pinky has the same issues the Cmdr buck has always had: looks beautiful, flops around like a puppet with cut strings. I've no problems with maintenance being needed if they're finally gonna give us figs of such raw beauty.

Man. What a bummer. I picked the one with the better paint at the store. Maybe I should have just waited till I saw a perfect looking one, but it's hard to tell with the way they pose them in the package...they all look like they're about to fall apart in package, as if their legs could snap off at any given moment.

"Pinky"! Punny, obviously.

I've tweaked Kang a good bit, shortening his calves to proper human and generally opening and toughening up his engineering. Also dug up the old War Planets/Shadow Raiders big Beast planet. Gonna do something with it.

My local TRU " FINALLY " restocked MU and it was the Scarlet Witch wave, so i snagged them all, She Hulk looked like her knees was gonna fall off in the package, all the rest i got look fine, gonna open them later.

All of the Shulkies look like that. I have two with no problems.

I need like 10 more Shulkies. Superwoman, Zarda, Barda, Monstress, Sif, Valkyrie, ...

My TRU "FINALLY" restocked too, with more X-23, Guardian, and Cyclops figures!
They also had a Constrictor, white boots variant Thing, Dr Strange, and Darkhawk, but they will soon be gone, and the others that have been rotting on the shelves for the past 8+ months will now be doubled in quantity.
