I love Deadpool as a character. He's funny, witty, and original. He may not save the Cheerleader or get the Princess, but he'll make the story to get her best friend far more entertaining!

I received this action figure (Deadpool is so more than just a toy!) as a gift from a dear friend who knew just what my nerdy desire was. And, though the figure is a little on the small side, it fits in perfectly with all of the other figures I have collected over the years. So, at this very moment, he is enjoying a tiny cup of tea with the Gunslinger Girls, Kusanagi, Cthulhu, and Tachikoma. And fits in perfectly.

The figure comes with two swords that do fit in the scabbards on his back, a small pistol that does fit in the holster on his thigh, a large machine gun that fits easily into his hand, and a sigh (sp?) that isn't actually in proper proportion to either his body or other weapons. That's the only thing that throws me about the entire ensemble: the sigh. It's far too large, he isn't known for wielding one, and, well, it just looks odd on him. I think it might have been intended for another, larger sized model that never got made.

While this figure might not be the greatest for small children (the weapons would be lost easily or eaten), any fan of Deadpool would love to have one. It just fits him, and I hope Deadpool tried to acquire one himself!

This deadpool is a fairly good version of six inches scaled down to 3-3/4. its fits in well with the new marvel universe series as well as GIJoe and Starwars which makes this figure extremely nice. You can pretty much use any accessory that you would get from a GIJoe with this figure. The only problem i've had was that his swords were really small for his hands but a little poster sticky and it'll fix him up. This is a must have for most deadpool fans since figures of this guy arent released too often and he's a great addition if your starting a marvel figure collection.

My nephew, like a lot of 10-year-olds, is a huge X-men fan, and Deadpool is one of his favorite characters from the franchise. Needless to say, he was stoked when he got this. It was really, really expensive, though. Compared to other action figures in the series, it cost about 3 times more. I understand that's probably a product of demand, but the toy manufacturers really need to start anticipating this. No one wants Iceman- make more Deadpools next time.

This item is great! I have only found a couple of things that could easily be fixed. The first is that the guns and swords do not always stay in the hand, but that is ok. The other thing is that I have found the legs do not always want to move forward, but if you push them enough, they will work for you

I had the most trouble i've ever had with a package in trying to take Deadpool along with his weapons out. I was really cautious when taking out the swords as they both were already bent and one was squished flat towards the middle. The machine gun's trigger was tied to the plastic unnecessarily by a rubber band as if being tightly wedged in it's slot wasn't enough. Regardless the Deadpool figurine stays true to the spirit of "the merc with the mouth". My only complaints about the figurine is he is bow-legged and his harness for weapons is made of soft plastic that feels very delicate... in my opinion it should have been made of the same type of plastic as the gun holster on his leg. But whatever, it is what it is and i'm just satisfied with having a Deadpool action figure in my repetoire without having to pay [...] for the marvel legends version.

Seeing as how Deadpool figures aren't released very often, I'm sure most fans of the 'Merc with a Mouth' will snatch this figure up no matter what. I know I did. However, there's just a few things that should be noted.

First, his swords are likely to be bent pretty bad thanks to the way they are secured in the package. However, they can be straightened right up by sticking them in the scabbards on his back and leaving them there for a little while.

Next, his guns seem to fit nicely enough in his hands, though his swords fit very loosely and sometimes just can't be held. To fix this, I just put a tiny bit of sticky tac (a blue puddy sometimes used to hang posters on walls) in his hand, which greatly helps him hang on to his weapons for display purposes.

I'm not sure if this figure would last long if played with by a child, as it seemed like it could be fragile--however, that could just be because I'm used to dealing with the larger 'Marvel Legends' figures and not these smaller, G.I. Joe sized figures.

The sculpt of the figure is very nice and accurately depicts Deadpool's appearance as it was in the 'Cable & Deadpool' comic book series. Perhaps the paint applications could be better, but overall this is a great figure.

Those interested in this character should check out the Hulk vs Wolverine movie included on the 'Hulk vs' DVD, as Deadpool is truly a hilarious yet deadly character, and very unique.

why must Hasbro make such tiny little action figures? these are even smaller than their first line of Spider-Man 3 toys. can they at least be consistent with the scale of their figures? it's ridiculous.

i wanted to get a Deadpool figure because i've recently taken an interest in him (he's got to be one of the most underrated, funniest characters in comics) but i won't buy one of these miniscule Hasbro figures because they're smaller than every other figure i own. and i can't even get ahold of the Marvel Legends Deadpool figure that came out a few years ago because it was a chase figure and goes for at least a full Benjamin Franklin on eBay. i'm sorry, but that's way too much to spend on a figure that i really want to take outta the package so he can annoy all my other figures with smart-aleck comments and pop culture references. but i digress...

anyhoo...Deadpool deserves more respect and Hasbro needs to stop being cheap and stupid. give us REAL action figures, not laughable little pieces of plastic like these. the only reason this review gets two stars instead of one because it's Deadpool, and he makes everything better, even garbage like this figure. i've said it before and i'll say it again: SCREW HASBRO!
