It's interesting that this figure definitely seems to owe more to how she was portrayed in the comics than the original figure (lighter blue, long hair). I do like the design/style of this figure, even though she seems to be continuing the trend of looking a little too skinny/gangly.

TG: I don't think the hip joints are balls, not like Sgt. Savage. These look more like Marvel Legends-style joints, which are basically the same as original, RAH figures' shoulders.

What bothers me is something I couldn't tell from the other figures, suspected with Duke but it seems confirmed with Scarlett: no waist articulation. Not even swivel. I can't believe they made such a fuss over the added articulation but they've apparently REMOVED a significant point. Sure the mid-torso joint will perform a similar function but it's going to affect the poseability, particularly for the ninjas.
