Toy Biz Marvel Legends Series 9 Galactus Deathlok Action Figure

Whew...this figure's in bad shape.Outside of the general sloppy detail, the worst part of the figure is the legs. Specifically, the knee joints. I find that knee joints/lower calves tend to be a reoccurring theme with some Marvel Legends figures. On my Deathlock, his left calf juts out away from the thigh so he does not stand straight if you attempt to place him flat on his feet. The best way I can describe it is at first I was convinced that I somehow managed to order the one figure that had two of the same lower legs (two lefts or two rights) but it is not the case. It's just how the figure pieced together.Of course, this could just be my figure. Regardless, it was only but so disappointing as I'm not even a fan of the character and this was a purchase that was made to complete the Galactus series. Marvel Legends figures are quite touch and go for me but unless you've got a sentimental spot for the character...or even if you do...consider waiting for a different production under a new line someday. This figure isn't doing the character any favors.

Good shape

Great item products as described

I have been a collector of Marvel Legends action figures for years now. The leg broke off immediately after opening the it up.

From the Galactus Series (or Series 9) comes the Deathlok action figure. Probably not so well known as some other characters, but this figure makes up for it in style. Well articulated with nicely fitted joints. Very nice paint job, too. This figure will not disappoint you. He comes with a gun that is attached to his chest. The gun goes in his right hand or the left, but the right hand has a peg on it where the gun can be placed onto it. As I mentioned, he is part of the Galactus Series. Which means that instead of a wall mountable display base, you get a piece of Galactus' huge 16 inch body. When you get all 7 figures in this series, the pieces can be joined together to make the 8th figure in the series--Galactus, Devourer of Worlds and arch nemesis of the Fantastic Four. A very nice marketing technique by ToyBiz. Everyone should surely buy all the figures in order to get Galactus. He truly does look amazing when he is assembled. Deathlok also comes with a comic book to read that is pretty good at showing you who and what he is all about. He was once a good guy who was injured and rebuilt into a cyborg and controlled by bad guys to do bad things. He eventually broke free of their control and is now making amends for his bad deeds. Don't pass this figure by. He is worth the price you pay to get him.

I'm Sure I'm Not the Only Person Who Purchased Deathlok Out of Need as Opposed to Desire. And While Bullseye was Actually a Pleseant Surprise in that He can Be Posed in Interesting Ways, Deathlok Proves to be Very Top Heavy. Possessing Skinny Legs and Small Feet Means this Figure doesn't Stand Well on His own. He Would've Benefitted Greatly from a Base, but Without the Corresponding Galactus Piece, I'm Sure Less People Would've Purchased it. While his Firearm being Attached to His Chest is True to Character, it also Limits the already Truncated Range of Poses. An Odd Character to Choose for Production in the First Place, I'd Reccommend You Not Buy it Unless You are Building Galactus. In Which Case, Buy it, Build Galactus and Throw Away Deathlok : )

I Wrote an In-Depth Review On a Different Deathlok Post. Terrible Figure, Lame Character. Only Got Him for the Galactus Piece. Top Heavy, Can't Support His Own Weight. Could've Used the Base, but then He Wouldn't have the Galactus Piece and No One would've Bought Him...

So much money
