Action Figure #56: Marvel Legends Gamora(Guardians of the Galaxy 5-pack)

  What is Gamora?

 Time for the deadliest woman in the galaxy, Gamora! She's lean, mean and... yes, another green-skinned figure.
 She's wearing the adult-female buck that was used before the Shriek mold, and... it fits her quite nicely. It's slightly muscular which works great for her. She came with two headsculpts, but I like this one more because it's hooded, which looks great with her cape. This soft-fabric cape is supposed to be used like a poncho, but I like it better this way!
 So, female figures have always had issues with the neck articulation because the molded hair gets in the way, right? This one takes it a step further because... it's just a ball, not a PEG, so no forward/backward neck movement. This severely hampers the poses you could get with her head. I also had to glue her left arm because, much like other figures with this mold, it seems like I'm always stressing the peg on the shoulder when moving it. It's fine, because the elbows are single-jointed, so she can still move her forearms to the sides. She's slightly taller than the Bucky-Cap mold.
 Gamora is probably among the more expensive Marvel Legends figures out now, so she's probably not worth THAT amount of money, but she's still a really good looking figure, and she's fun to pose around with her team.
