Character Bio:
Possessing natural archery abilities hones to an expert level, Clint Barton adopted the persona
' Hawkeye', then one day while witnessing Iron Man save a civillian at a carnival, he decided to become a costumed crimefighter himself. As a way of proving himself he broke into the Avengers mansion and convinced their butler Jarvis, to play the role of a victim so he could display his skill. Iron Man vouched for Hawkeye and right then and there, he became an Avenger!
Sculpt and Paint:
The sculpt on this figure is absolutely stunning. The level of detail is crazy on this figure. The face and mask is fantastic. The scaled on the shoulders and chest are great, as are the lines on his torso. The belt I love because the Avengers logo on the pouch is so cool. The detail is just great. The paint is flawless. I really have nothing bad to say for this section.
The Base:
In typical Marvel Select style, this figure comes with a base. Its built by adding the 2 brick sections to the damaged Ultron floor and sticking 2 tip-less arrows into designated areas on the body. The base as a whole is in my opinion EPIC. The sculpt on Ultron is crazy and the detail of the base is truly amazing. Well done Diamond Select, well done.
Accessories and Articulation:
I love when a figure has a lot of accessories. Hawkey is perfect in my eyes just for that. He includes 2 tip-less arrows for the base, 1 tipped arrow, and 1 tipped arrow with Wasp on it. And if you dont want him holding them, you can put them in his fully functioning removable Quiver. And while your at it, put his bow with soft plstic string over his chest so he doesnt have to hold that either......I love this figure.
In terms of articulation, Clint here has a ton for a Marvel Select. He has a ball jointed head, swivel-hinge shoulders, swivel biceps, hinge elbows, swivel wrists, swivel waist, swivel-hinge hips, swivel thighs, hinge knees, and hinge ankles. Double-hinge elbows would have really helped for archer poses but I'm willing to look past that for the detail and accessories he has.
OVERALL:
This Hawkeye is well worth your money, expecially if you missed out on the Marvel Legends one. I personally prefer this one even if he doesn't have as much articulation. Get yourself one!! You won't regret it!

This is the best archer pose I could get, not perfect but not bad either. |
