Havok
Based on what I've seen on the shelves, Havok is by far the most shortpacked of the Wal-Mart exclusive Giant Man assortment of Marvel Legends. While Thor and Sabretooth clog the pegs, Alex Summers is nowhere to be found. Poor Havok - the unloved Summers brother gets shafted again.
This figure depicts Havok in his classical outfit, which was originally created by Bolivar Trask to help Alex control his powers. He's got a bullseye on his chest, a jewel on his forehead and a gigantic white headdress (and we wonder why Havok was never taken seriously). As with most Marvel Legends figures, Havok is depicted in a state of rage (or at least, unhappiness). The face is really the only area with any paint details, as the rest of his costume is nearly 100% black, and I'm reasonably sure that the bullseye on his chest is stamped on. As for the face, the paint is crisp and clean, and while the expression might leave a little to be desired, the paint apps certainly don't.
Havok's mid-torso joint ratchets, which seems to be a new feature for Marvel Legends - I'm glad to see it, as I'm tired of all my ML figures standing with a constant slouch.
It's difficult to pose Havok using his powers, since to do so, he just sticks out his hands. Without a visible power blast, it looks a bit silly.
All in all, I'll give it a C. It's not at all bad, but not outstanding, either; it's thoroughly average, just like Alex Summers himself.
