I dig it. It reminds me of the big ole display piece that came with the Marvel Select figure. I disliked the figure but that Phoenix dio piece is amazing. It’s one of two Select dio pieces I didn’t buy for sone silly reason. The Xavier gate and that Phoenix piece were worth the money. Oh well. This looks good. Now Hasbro make a kick ass ice slide for Bobby.
YES! I feel like a decent Ice Man is long overdue anyway - a deluxe set with some ice accessories like this one would be a massive win for me - I'd be all in on that!
The Mafex one does look great, but too out of my budget :( She looks Jean enough for me, at my price bracket. The Phoenix display is fun, but it's super fiddly! Thanks for watching :)
I don't like the face either the Toysrus one was much better. Still waiting for them to do an accurate face based on the x men animated cartoon from the 1990's with the big hair-do!! This new one's face reminds me of my old boss from work I can't stand it haha. I bought this figure solely for the Phoenix backdrop 😂
I mean... if it reminds you of the old boss you didn't like then it's not going to make the display LOL I think it's likely the Phoenix backdrop was the big selling point for a lot of folks, I know it was for me. Thanks for watching, and thanks for taking the time to drop a comment - pleasure to have you here :)
It's a great looking figure but with the prices of toys I had to cut out a few brands. How well does that Phoenix conduct light can you put it on top of a light source to help illuminate it?
It's not bad. I've got a little multicoloured led light thing and I popped her on top of it to see and its fairly good. It doesn't Reach up all the way to the wings all that well but with a better light I can see it working well.

Getting her for the figure.
It’s an awesome set. More of a display piece than a play experience but the figure is really solid for sure 🤘🏼
I'm so glad I decided to go with the Mafex version. Yeah, I miss out on the Phoenix effect, but this figure does NOT look like Jean to me at all.

Definitely a nice head swap.
It works, but it's wobbly. You'd need to a little remedial action to make it work but its possible. :)
Great review mate! That is a spectacular looking figure!
She rocks! Definitely more of a display piece than a play piece but she really does look great!
