Action Figure #762: Marvel Legends Cardiac

 The 90's are so back, baby!

 Reading through every appearance of Spider-Man eventually got me to meet the weirdos. Characters such as Puma, Rocket Racer, Grizzly, The Human Fly and.... Cardiac too. He's as 90's as 90's get, being called Cardiac because his powers come from his ersatz heart, and I'm so happy we finally got him!
 See all the white lines going through his body? Fully sculpted. That's right, the sculptors cared about bringing Cardiac to life, and they nailed him. Look, I get it, his design is definitely not for everyone, but all four of us who wanted Cardiac... we got him, and he is great. And he doesn't feel gummy to boot! He comes with a fist, two gripping hands, an open hand, his staff, and an energy effect for his staff.
 Articulation is basic but pretty good. He has swivels on his biceps and thighs, a ball jointed torso and double jointed elbows and knees. Sadly, no waist articulation, but you can get pretty good poses with what we've got. He is a bit taller than Bucky Cap.
 Brilliant figure. I really hate it how spotty Marvel Legends can be. Sometimes you'll get gummy figures that are weeks away from breaking, but then you get something like this. A completely new sculpt with good plastic. Hasbro, get it together, man!
9.0
