Action Figure #675: Marvel Legends Ultron (Ursa Major Wave)

 Might not be the MCU version, but I'd keep my secretary away from him.

 Ultron was probably the last BIG Marvel villain I've been missing. It sure took a while! I'm not particularly fond of this simple, classic look, but they didn't release many modern Ultrons, and those were either undersized or made on the buck that has fragile legs... so I had to settle for his one.
 As much as I dislike this simpler look... they pulled it off really well, and the shiny silver paint makes him very eyecatching. For such a simple design, I feel like he turned out great in plastic form, and his nasty face sculpt is just cheff's kiss. He comes with a right fist and three left hands: A fist, a gripping hand and an open hand... he also comes with an amazing Kirby Crackle accessory that sadly.... I don't have because I was cheap and got him used. The only thing I noticed was that his fingers are bit short and chunky, I think I would've made them longer.
 Articulation on this guy covers all the Marvel Legends basics: Double jointed elbows and knees, hidden swivels on his thighs and ankles as well as swivels on his biceps. The shoulder pads rotate along the arm, so they don't limit his range, and his torso articulation relies on a waist swivel and a ball jointed ab-crunch that hasn't got the most range ever but it good enough. Overall, you can get Ultron on any pose you might want him to. He is slightly taller than Bucky Cap, which works fantastic for him.
 Overall, a fantastic figure. I love how he turned out, and I deeply resent not getting the Kirby crackle. Look, if I'm happy with a figure of a character I don't care for, then I bet fans will love him.
