This is very good figure as she has great sculpting and a incredible likeness as its pretty movie accurate. I recommend Marvel Movie/Marvel Legends/Spider-Man figures for age 10 and up due to the fragileness nature of the figures. Bottom line this is a must have figure if you are a big Fantastic Four fan! I stronlgy recommend this figure!

This review is from: Fantastic 4 Movie Series II Deluxe 12" Figure: Invisible Woman (Toy)

Ever wonder why some prototype action figures look better than the actual mass production model? This is a question that I've been asking myself even now, three weeks after receiving the Invisible Woman action figure.

To the point: Female action figures are among the most popular and sought after. As a collector and a fan of the Fantastic Four, there are very few 1/6 scale (12 inch) versions of the Invisible Woman on the market, which is why I purchaced it. Upon receiving it, there were only two aspects of the figure that I found to be impressive:
1. The head sculpture - the accuracy and likeness of the figure to that of Jessica Alba is perfect.
2. The price - for $10.00, you can't beat it. Any Fantastic Four fan would be insane to pass it up.

However, I was extremely disppointed with:
1. The degree of differences between the actual figure and the prototype - The body sculpt looks nothing like the photo (the prototype) used to advertise the figure.
2. The cheap plastic and construction used in the mass production model.
3. The sub-standard packaging - To collectors, the type and condition of the package is equally as important as the figure it encases. Because of the cheap box that Toybiz provided us with, my figure sustained damage during storage and shipping. The package is not only suppose to look good (which is also not the case here), it also has to protect the figure inside of it.
4. No instructions or catalogs.

In summary, the Invisible Woman appears to be another attempt by Toybiz to produce an affordable, 12 inch action figure, but cut several corners in the process. In my opinion (and only in my opinion), this is the same sub-standard quality and workmanship that is reminiscent of the old stick figures that Toybiz used to produce back in the 90s.
The pros:
1. The head sculpture
2. The price
The cons:
1. The differences between the actual figure and the prototype
2. The cheap plastic and construction
3. The sub-standard packaging
4. No instructions or catalogs

I would gladly pay $30 or $40 for a masterpiece edition figure such as those created for Blade, The Punisher and Wolverine. I hope Toybiz considers this the next time the produce a 12 inch female action figure.
