Surprised to see this on the pegs. I can't remember the last time I got a new Marvel Universe figure from local retail. Happy to have gotten it.
Some differences on the card. There's character art behind the Marvel wording on the back and Deadpool is now on advertising duty.
In place of thte Hammer/Shield logo on the card is a "collectable comic shot".
The first thing I noticed about this figure is her hair. I think the strands are too thick and they look like snakes. Together with her mean facial expression, she's got the "Medusa" look about her. She looks abit better from certain angles though. Would have liked if she had straighter hair and a more youthful appearance. The body is the same as most other Marvel Universe female characters. Paint wise is pretty bad. Her face is a paler shade compared to the other exposed parts of her body. The bands on her arms and thighs are uneven and patchy. Would have liked if a little lighter shade of blue was used for her costume.
She comes with a psionic sword and energy spike. She does not come with a base like with previous figures. There're no bases with this wave of figures.

She can only hold the sword in her left hand. The grip is rather loose. I got her holding the hilt in some of the shots.
For articulation, shes got a ball joint neck, head rotation is hindered by her hair. Shoulders have ball and hinge. Elbows are single hinge. There's wrist swivel, torso pivot, waist rotation, ball joint hips, double jointed knees and ankles have swivel and hinge.
Some group shots.
Jubilee has already been announced, now we need Rogue.
Forming X-Force will be a costly effort. It's very unlikely I'll get Archangel. Unless he's released again, maybe in matte colours.
Looks like she's found a sparring partner.
That's it for Psylocke. Thanks for viewing.
