Daredevil
I understand Matt's blind but oww. The maroon and red paints really clash on this figure. Otherwise, he's a solid figure for the first few waves. He was noticeable muscle definition so he doesn't look like a doughboy. His smirking face doesn't seem to work for the character, but maybe I've been reading too much of Brubaker's run. A good figure ruined by poor paint. C+
Elektra
The second female offering for the line shows two drastically different ways of thinking. While articulated, she completely lacks a stable method of standing on her own. She looks fine though once she's standing. A decent figure but shows different thoughts being thrown around for the line. C-
Note: As far as packs go, this is one of the more thought out ones.

I got this pack for super cheap on ebay (less than $2, including shipping), so maybe that's why I feel inclined to go easy on it.
I actually don't mind the color scheme on Daredevil, maybe because I'm not a very particular DD fan. DD has good waist and arm articulation. I like the little horns and classic "DD" on his chest. My biggest complaint is that he's surprisingly unstable. I think the DD in the spidey 2-pack is probably better, but I'll settle for this one. B.
When I first got her, Elektra took the cake in instability. Her front foot and back toe weren't even close to being on the same plane. After I heated and reset her pose, she's been much better and I otherwise think she's an okay figure. Unlike other unstable figures, she hasn't really reverted back to her gimpy pose. I like the two Sais and articulation in both arms. She also has some of the biggest hair in the entire SHS lineup. B-.

Daredevil
Are you kidding me this does even look like Daredevil at all. First of all he has white sticks instead of red, and last but not least he is smiling. I have not seen Daredevil smile at all. I prefer the Daredevil/Spider Man 2-pack better. F
Electra
Electra has a difficult time standing. Usually I have to put a another guy next to her to stand. On the plus side why is she smiling? F

 This pack went on clearance for many reasons. Daredevil is pudgy and Elektra is impossible to stand. At least this pairing makes a lot of sense. jestergoblin.com/?p=2096 |
