Marvel Legends - Infinite Series - Part 2 - Winter Soldier [Bucky]

Part 2 of our Infinite Series post is James Buchanan "Bucky" Barnes aka Winter Soldier. As we all know, Bucky is Steve Roger's good old sidekick who was supposed to be dead but came back as Winter Soldier.

First, let's see - our package contains Winter Soldier in his Captain America: The Winter Soldier Movie Costume. Also contains Unmasked Head, a silly red rifle and Mandroid's Left Leg.

Yes, this is the silly red rifle. First, why is it red? Looks like a kid's toy. Second, it's made of rubber so packaging almost destroyed it's alignment. Third, it's the same weapon from the Hydra Soldier. Fourth, it doesn't fit.

The Unmasked Head that looks more like Froddo with a serious case of insomnia. The sculpt in the face and it's shape isn't bad though - whats bad as always are the sculpt in the hair.

Details wasn't bad with the Masked Head attached - the hair is bad but unnoticeable since the Mask on his face creates a great attention. The colours are good especially the Cybernetic Arm. Paint chips from production are unnoticeable if there are any.

One of the problems you might encounter, aside from the hands that remains the way they are, his rifle itself doesn't actually fit - recycling old molds huh. Aside from being a not so good rifle it doesn't match either. Then did I say those hands stay as it is?

Articulation ain't good - but ain't bad either. The same problem with Captain America NOW! - problem in the AB-joint can be noticed. It permits poses at the same time those strap-like-things on his legs limits it too.

Well atleast we can still pose him. Again, the biggest Question - Is it Worth Getting? Well, typically he is not worth it because of the bad hair sculpt, bad hand sculpt and bad rifle - but credits to the Cybernetic Arm and Masked Head he looked Great and slightly worth getting. Next, he has Mandroid's Left leg so completing Mandroid he is a must. Not so great, Not so bad.

Marvel Legends: - Wolverine and Dark Wolverine [Daken]

A week ago, I found these two and bought them for half a price each. I was thinking why not? atleast I get two for a price of one. Marvel Legends Wolverine Hit Monkey Series, build Hit monkey if you collect all 6. Now, For every 6 of the set -there is always one figure who never have a part of The Build a Figure. X-Force Wolverine here therefore is a perfect example. He doesn't have any of the pieces of Hit monkey or whatsoever. But How can you not buy him? It's a Wolverine in his X-Force Suit!
Moving on, Dark Wolverine here also known as Daken comes in with the Left arm of Armin Zola. I'm not interested for him though so this arms goes into the box - forever. For people who doesn't know, Daken [also known as Akihiro] is the mutant son of Logan to his Japanese-Deceased Wife Itsu. He possesses the same ability as his father and was branded as Wolverine when he joined the Dark Avengers. And on an Extra Info, this figure comes in an unmasked version of Daken - Hope I can find one in the Future.
Enough with that stuff let's move on...

Daken in his MOC Condition that I would open...

Wolverine in his MOC Condition...

Wolverine's Front View, Bended the head a little - it's looks better that way. X-Force Suit, although what I hate about this is it's somehow shiny. Should it be Shiny?

Let's try to pose it - oh my, looks like he's having potty time.

Now this is better.

Armin Zola's left arm. What to do with it?

Daken - have you noticed it's color scheme is the same as the old brown Wolverine? That tattoo makes him sexy too!

A little pose.

Father and Son... oh wait... Son and Father... Daken's Figure is a little skinnier than Wolverine's Figure making him well a less buffed .

Time to play! woohoo! Who do you think would win?

Oh! Captain America ruins the scene!

Daken is down! Capt what have you done! Now Wolvirines gonna get you!

So, I still have more claw bearing figures like this but they are in my shelf so I still have to look for them. but for now these are the ones displayed outside my shelf. isn;t that Labbit Cute?

A Final pose.

Don't Forget him though.

As a conclusion, both figure almost have the same articulation. Just Like what my comments on ML Series, articulation is always good but details are less.
