Marvels Famous Covers Hawkeye

A brief introduction of the character, using nothing but a bow and arrow, Hawkeye has long been a valuable member of the Avengers. Fighting alongside heroes with special powers and incredible abilities, Hawkeye makes up for his lack of superpowers by creating special arrows for his missions. The boxart features the cover of West Coast Avengers #1.

Just like Aquaman and some of the other famous covers figures, Hawkeye also suffers from the sticky, powdery costume syndrome, and just like Aquaman, I washed the costume to get rid of of all the sticky purple paint on the boots and some parts of the costume and arms.


I love the figure but trying to pose with the bow and arrow is tough, still has a few decent poses, the bow does shoots the arrows but without the use of the figure.
I also recoloured the eye part, Hawkeye comes with a bow, 3 arrows and quiver. Unlike other famous cover figures, Hawkeye has a newly sculpted right hand, just for shooting arrows.


The Famous covers line has the avengers team in the line and you can't pass up on Hawkeye, besides the costume flaw, he still hits a bulleye in any display.


AVENGERS ASSEMBLE!!!!
