Her powers are actually not fire related, so she's more like Radiationstar.
I've been meaning to get my hands on
Firestar for a while now, and I almost purchased this three pack a few times, but I finally managed to get Angelica loose by herself. Spider-Man and his amazing friends was a wacky show, and in some ways
superior to its contemporary solo Spider-man show!
To be perfectly fair, Firestar is a very simple design, so this figure is little more than a Shrike buck
reuse with paint on top. But she does have a high collar unique to her, and I do
love the flamey color scheme! She comes with two open hands, two fists, two heads, her pet dog who's name I don't recall and... two
fire effects. To be fair, on the show she
did have fire powers, but in the comic books it was changed to radiation waves.
Highlighted here are two things. Firstly, one of the headsculpts forces her open collar a bit closed, which looks a bit
odd. Also, she has
gummy arms and shoulders.
On the articulation end of things.... well, the usual. Double jointed elbows and knees, swivels on her biceps and thighs with a ball jointed ab crunch and no waist articulation. It's par for the norm,
really. She's almost as tall as Bucky Cap.
Firestar is a nice little figure. I don't think there's much more they could've done with the character.
