The tail is pre-posed in a snaking fashion, so no bendy plastic here, however it’s sculpted in a way that really makes use of the swivel at the base, allowing for some varied poses. The figure is rounded out with a thin blue tail with a devilish point. His hands are sculpted appropriately with three fingers and his feet with two toes. The red paint doesn’t quite match between the two pieces, but it’s close enough. Kurt’s V-shaped vest is painted on below the chest, but sculpted above it and it flares out from the shoulders.
Yeah, there’s some bleed through on the red paint, which is a shame, but surprisingly there’s none at all on the white. The body is cast in black plastic with some red and white paint for the boots and gloves. He’s built off a rather lean and almost lanky buck, which plays well to his superhuman agility. Is it long past time we got him in modern Marvel Legends? Hell, yeah it is!Īnd it sure was well worth the wait! Hasbro just poured the love into this figure and appropriately so, because he is such a fan favorite. To me, the really interesting Mutants were the ones who traded their great gift for an appearance that instantly placed them outside normal society. At the same time, I always thought he was one of the better examples of the Mutant dilemma, since so many could hide their mutations in the guise of their normal appearances. Indeed, he’s almost as old as I am! I was a big fan of his growing up, mainly because he looked cool and I thought teleportation would be one of the best mutant powers to have. Nightcrawler has been kicking around the X-Men funnybooks for a long time. I was going to save the best for last, but truth be told this figure has been waiting long enough to be opened.
The X-Men hits keep on coming, folks, and I’m only two figures away from finishing off the Wendigo Wave.
