Toys before civil war


Just in time for Captain America 3 Civil war, I got a set of  figures from Marvel's Avengers Age of Ultron. Made by Crazy toys, a hong kong based company making replicas of Kotobukiya figures and hot toy figures. Yes, they are knock offs of other figures, making a much affordable price for everyone.


Though the figures from the line are from the kotobukiya Marvel now line, crazy toys gave us nicer box art with box sleeves. 

Here's the figure outta the box, easy to snap together parts, Hulk stands 9" tall and has quite a heft in hand. For a knock off the quality is outstanding.
With the price point, this hulk figure definitely does't disappoint though I'd say the green is a tad lighter of a shade for me, almost an exact replica of its Kotobukiya counterpart.
I'm glad I got this figure but be wary, crazy toys is a toy company that did rip of other toys, there are other china companies who's ripping of crazy toys, making replicas of the replica with a slight derpy looking mold. 
Do take note of the box i've pictured here and you're ready to ASSEMBLE!
 (I mean literally assemble the figure)

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!!!!
