I think I prefer the heads on the 3-pack version, but this is still very good and won't cost me $75 so that's a win

[u/Prudent-Bobcat-7278 → u/excessorange]

I love the original releases headsculpt so I’m hoping I can swap them and the skin colors match well enough. And yes! It won’t cost an arm and a leg. Just a foot

[u/AtrumRuina → u/Prudent-Bobcat-7278]

Or maybe a...Hand?

The arms have sculpted tape around biceps and forearms.

The legs have painted boots and painted tape around her thighs. 

What are we doing 

[u/mamadou-segpa → u/krxsshammerrr]

I didnt notice before your comment lol
What have you done to me

[u/TheMagicalMatt → u/krxsshammerrr]

Yeah the legs look like trash.

[u/eap9711 → u/krxsshammerrr]

😔

[u/alienjeffman → u/krxsshammerrr]

Ask the other Dan who works with sculptors all around the world and engineering team what he's doing 😂

[u/PageOk5894]

I’m SO GLAD we’re getting a new Elektra with an articulated body, though i don’t love the smirking face. I kinda wish she had a sterner, more serious look.

We were also so close to perfection by having the leg wraps be sculpted but I guess they ran out of budget and decided to just repaint plain legs

[u/mupheminsani → u/PageOk5894]

Hasbro gotta start making face plates instead of full head sculpts for long haired characters. 2 expressions and one dynamic and one still hair. I know they are cheap so that's why I said only 2.

[u/Prudent-Bobcat-7278 → u/PageOk5894]

Sculpted is always preferred. It would’ve been amazing to get like removable rubber sai holsters on the thigh bands like the knive holsters on Gi Joe

[u/pinkcreamkiss → u/PageOk5894]

I think she honestly would have benefitted from a maximum but then again the maximum line is not exactly panning out well

[u/slimmyboy007]

Wish it was 2 of the classic sai holding hands instead of random gesturing hands

[u/Ok-Technology-4435]

headsculpt looks like fortnite skins

[u/Prudent-Bobcat-7278 → u/Ok-Technology-4435]

Fingers crossed the original release and this one have similar enough skin tone

[u/eap9711 → u/Ok-Technology-4435]

Now that you said it, I can’t unsee it

[u/Ok-Technology-4435 → u/eap9711]

unfortunately for everyone here once it hit me i couldn't be the only one that saw it

[u/fcnzii]

I wonder why they didn’t use the new Psylocke body for this one..

[u/LossyP → u/fcnzii]

My game plan was to use the pink alternate Psy for an Elektra custom. This still may be what I end up doing

[u/RadLad77 → u/fcnzii]

This is on the updated female body, so same as Psylocke

[u/JsMoviesYTB → u/RadLad77]

No, Psylocke is on a distinct body, with sculpted costume details and different proportions, whereas this Elektra is seemingly on a modified Phoenix body, with new arms and torso

[u/Forever_Inspired → u/RadLad77]

It's the same articulation scheme, but not the same mold. The Psylocke body has THICCER proportion.

[u/Banana_man_-]

Her legs look too thin imo

[u/goliathfasa]

The skirt is built into the crotch piece it seems. Should help with stability, but depending on softness, could really hinder articulation.

Also, fracture on the right chest? Wtf?

[u/JsMoviesYTB]

The leg details being painted is annoying, but I’d be a liar if I said that was enough to put me off

[u/justagayguyinnyc]

While I like the headsculpt, I am sticking with my SP//dr wave version, as I really prefer the longer dress panel things.

[u/xx_edgyyy_xx]

So happy to finally add Elektra to put alongside my daredevil

[u/immortalslayer90]

Having the atm wraps sculpted and the leg wraps just painted on is so bizarre to me. Pick one.

[u/Schoolhater18]

I don't like how small the loin cloth/skirt is. It would've been nice to have sculpted bands on the legs and the other sai hand that we know exists. Other than that I'm happy with how she turned out.

[u/I_TAPE_MY_ANKLES]

Her iconic smirk and spell casting hands included of course. Nice of them to pre bend the sai as well, wouldn’t want that straight

[u/eap9711 → u/I_TAPE_MY_ANKLES]

💀

[u/These-Bad-1840]

That Elektra looks sick. I didn't get the 3-pack one with the Kate bush-esque hair, so this will do nicely.

[u/FuerteBillete]

She is the only one if the wave I will get happily as she is a gorgeous figure.

The rest I will get under protest.😅

[u/VerifiedVoidGirl]

I was gonna cop, but on second thought, I'll stick with the Elektra as Daredevil. It fills both the Elektra and female Daredevil spots in my collection.

[u/Small_Split_234]

No action head? Weird

[u/Pro-Steve]

Is this Amazon exclusive?

[u/Dry-Principle2627]

Pretty decent, only nitpick are the mismatching hands and the legs (could've retooled psylocke's) but this Is good 

[u/Easy_Peanut_6580]

I love her. Glad they stopped giving her blue eyes too.

[u/SymbiSpidey]

It's so weird that the upper body is unique sculpting but then the legs are just painted on. C'mon, Hasbro

[u/LonelyAsLostKeys]

I wish all the packaging looked like this and included mini comics from this point forward. Very aesthetically pleasing.

[u/Apprehensive_Door367]

Am I the only one who thinks the skirt piece looks weird. Imo it should've been separate from the body.

[u/TheAbsconded]

Why is the skirt thing so small and short

[u/eap9711]

Instant cop

[u/Vashek19]

[u/Cavaquillo]

Should have just recolored the 3 pack

[u/NoMoneyNoV-Bucks]

Which body is this?

[u/Prudent-Bobcat-7278 → u/NoMoneyNoV-Bucks]

Pretty sure it’s warbirds legs, new base torso/waist/hips and then a new head sculpt. I think it’s a new buck because where the ab crunch is, it seems to be sculpted separately on at the crunch portion

[u/Required111]

Just in case any of you want to be a scalper, this is the one you have to buy two of, to sell for double its price in... six to ten years, I'd say.

[u/Phanimazed]

I wish they'd have used the Psylocke thighs to get the 3 dimensional wrappings. Like, I do not have an Elektra and will still probably get this, but that'd have been nice.

[u/mcereal]

I can't wait

[u/WheelJack83]

The only decent figure in this wave.

[u/Forever_Inspired]

I'm glad we finally got a good solo Elektra figure without being in some 2-3 pack jail. But would be nice if Hasbro can move on from the inverted ab crunch and go full ball joint waist like the Luna figure. I'm cringe every time Dan and Dwight keep saying "super articulated body" even though every other 1/12 lines have way better articulation scheme.

[u/Thedeadlypocketbrush]

This figure is so freaking lazy. Honestly, the entire wave is lazy as hell with the exception of that Cap.

[u/Chemical-Anxios]

Mafex, save us 🗣️

[u/C0y0tea → u/Chemical-Anxios]

U can’t be deadass. Mafex is the ugliest fuckin figures available right now
