Graduating from New York City’s police academy with top honors, Misty Knight became a patrolwoman at the Twelfth Precinct in partnership with Rafe Scarfe. Early in her career, she rescued Colleen Wing from a Manhattan gun battle, and the two soon became best friends. Sometime later, Misty encountered terrorists attempting to bomb a bank; she retrieved the bomb, but it exploded before she could dispose of it. Her right arm had to be amputated and was replaced with a cybernetic limb designed at Stark International. Despite the enhanced strength of her new arm, Misty’s injury removed her from active patrol duty, and she resigned rather than accept a desk job. Depressed over these developments, she was encouraged by Colleen to again take an active role in life, and the two eventually became partners in a private investigation firm, Nightwing Restorations.

Marvel Legends Misty Knight
Pros
Awesome secondary character choice
Perfect deco
Cons
Should have used the Black Cats feet
Overall
Misty Knight is a perfect secondary figure to add to this wave. The figure itself has a great head sculpt but could have used the Black Cats feet to make it more comic accurate. Really enjoying the selection that Hasbro came up within this Spider-Man wave.

How did you get him to hold the grenade launcher gun thing?
Love the shot if Chameleon fixing his tie. Great pics all around.
I really love this wave Kraven is up next!

Nice figure. Kraven's Last Hunt is still one of my all-time favorite Spider-Man stories.
Those Kraven pics turned out fantastic.
This wave is awesome Misty Knight is up next!

Wait, whaaa??? I hope you aren't using uber-sexy fan art as reference.
MISTY = FLATS!!!
Not really and the cover you pointed out is stylized. It has the heals it's just not in a classic style.
I can pull from Marvel all day long with the six inch heels, it just looks better. Nobody is saying you can't like the boring flat bottoms, but for me it's heals or at least boots with a heal.
Great pics! Still have not seen this wave hit, but I am looking forward to it. The issue with Misty's boots could be fixed if Marvel would have a house style guide like DC had forever with Jose Luis Garcia-Lopez.
Next up is Ghost Rider awesome figure, but I'm super salty that it did not come with a chain weapon.

Mines in the mail^^^ hope he arrives today if not tomorrow
and will have Kraven too
Agreed on that headsculpt. Wow! The hinged jaw is a must with skeleton faces IMO and ML delivered.
The lack of the chain is a huge mistep. My biggest complaint however is the lack of a motorcycle. I know things have changed with Marvel Legends but no motorcycle is a let down. This is the first ML Ghost Rider(I believe)to not have his ride. It really takes away from the character IMO.

Superior Venom. Mistakes were made but it's still a solid figure.

Well that's certainly an odd looking Spider-Man.
I hated the Superior Venom and pretty much anyone I know who reads the comics agrees. It's just a kinda dumb take on the symbiote (though not nearly as dumb as the newest Venom) and lasted very briefly. This is definitely the figure of the wave that is not selling in my area, it may be because nobody really liked this idea to begin with or because every figure I've seen has had poor paint apps.
I didn't mind the Superior Venom arc...I was actually disappointed that it was such a short run because I really don't care much for "Flash" Venom (as either a SHIELD agent or a space knight.) I realize that characters and motivations change, but the retcon job that Marvel did to Venom was one of the most awful of the last few years, and in my honest opinion, second only to the the awful long lost sister soap opera that was Angela. (Even though the symbiotes being an "honorable and proud race...", a complete 180 degree spin from what we have seen from the last 20 years or so of symbiotes, who up to that point were far from honorable, and were mostly creatures who drove their hosts mad and were full of murderous intent was pretty bad, the Angela retcon was far worse.)
That said, a fan service figure for sure, but Superior Venom was actually one of my favorite figures in the new wave (second only to Ghost Rider, who was incredible.) I liked the use of the pizza Spidey buck, and I really dug the monster feet and tendrils. I also like the smaller proportions in comparison to the heavily stylized comic version, and the sculpt on that nasty mouth of teeth...very creepy.
Despite being shaped for specific ports, the tendrils are soft enough that you can place them in whatever space you want with a little finangling. They actually plug in and stay on a little better when you do.
Great photos!
