Silver Surfer 12 Review Movie That WeekendIf you are bored from Silver Surfer (1968) comic, you can try surprise me link at top of page or select another comic like Silver Surfer (1968) 12 from our huge comic list. The beginning, middle, and end are still in the story.Silver Surfer (1968) 12 Issue Navigation: Silver Surfer (1968) 12 released You are now reading Silver Surfer (1968) 12 online. The beginning, middle, and end are still in the story. Even then, with the opening of the Simpsons movie that weekend, it's pretty unlikely.Silver Surfer 11 is a linear story that has been given the ability, through art, to fold and connect back into itself. In fact, the odds of my seeing this movie in theaters is slim, at least until late July when I'm at SDCC. The trailers for the Rise of the Silver Surfer look terrific, but I learned long ago that the quality of a trailer has no relationship to the quality of a film, and so I've been a lot less excited about the release of this film than a lot of my fellow card carrying geeks.The MCU may have many believing Thanos to be the most powerful Marvel character, but here are 10 reasons why Silver Surfer deserves that title.In any event, I was very interested in seeing how the toys turned out, largely because I have been so hugely disappointed in comic book movie figures for the past couple years. If not, I'll certainly see it on DVD, with the rest of the masses.10 Times Silver Surfer Proved He Was The Most Powerful Character In The Marvel Universe. If the fans come back from the movie that Friday night practically killing themselves with praise for this film, I just might make an exception.There are almost no details on the character, and even the face is fairly expressionless. While there's a small photo and name on the left side for each character, that's about as far as any personalization goes.There's not much to the sculpt of a character like the Surfer. Now I know that Hasbro is trying to use the package to hog peg space, but it's still annoying for the actual consumer and wasteful as well.The other big issue is the general lack of personalization. The packages suck up more space than comparable 6 - 7" lines from other companies, with lots of wasted space inside the bubble. My biggest complaint is the size, especially since this is a 5" line. The Silver Surfer appears to be short packed right now (uh, the movie is named after him, right?), but I'm hopeful that will change.The packages are attractive enough, with good graphics, but they lack in a number of areas. Michael jackson thriller album ebayBut hey, you've already got an excellent Surfer in that line, so you should stick this guy with the newly revamped Spider-man figures and call it a day. In fact, I much prefer this to the usual fists, especially with this character.Scale will be an issue for plenty of collectors, since you won't be adding this guy to any sort of Marvel Legends display. His head is still a bit smaller than it should be, but it's not as bad as some of the figures we saw with the earlier Spider-man wave.The hands are sculpted in a half grip pose, and since there are no accessories, this works fine. Scale is pretty good too, with less of a pinhead issue this time around. ![]() The knee is also less obtrusive here than I thought it was on the Spider-man figures.There's also pin ankles, ball jointed hips (very similar to the shoulders), and a very good ball jointed chest. This gives the lower leg a lot of movement, and excludes the need for any unsightly cut joints on the leg. This knee cap then inserts into the thigh with a post, so that it can turn inside the thigh. This means that the lower leg can move as far back as is possible with a double pin style joint. These knee joints have a pin to move forward and back, and the pin is positioned at the base of a 'knee cap'. The foot pegs are a little loose (turn him upside down and he'll have a tough time staying on the board), but they are placed in decent locations and can be used together or independently.I really like the thickness and heft of the board, which makes it an excellent display base. It's nice thatThe board itself is larger than the figure. The board is a good size, measuring about6 inches long, and he can stand on it in any number of ways. That's really the only serious issue with an otherwise well designed figure.There's not much in the way of accessories here, but there is the only one that really matters - his surfboard.This is the Silver SURFER after all, and without his board he'd just be a dude that liked the look of chrome a little too much. Without them, you can't turn the hands in any way. Wheres my water full apkTake care if you run into a similar situation, and try the old freezer trick. The left hip joint on mine is painted tight so that it can't move outward from the body (the right hip joint works just fine), and if I tried to pressure it too much I could easily snap or tear the pin. Some of the other figures in these assortments are going to end up on clearance, but with the current pack out (SS is only one per case right now), he's not likely to hang around long.Not much. The smaller scale will also play well with vehicles and playsets, and you can face off your FF movie figures with the figures from Spider-man, Batman and Superman.At $7, he's a pretty average mass market value. He fits on the board pretty well, and the solid articulation combined with the good sculpt make him an attractive and fun toy. You should be able to find this guy at most major retailers.If you're looking for some other Fantastic Four product, check out:- the Marvel Masterworks of them battling the Moleman. Now, if we can get the Icons version with as good of a paint job and articulation anywhere near this good, all for around $20, I'll be a very happy camper.I'd suggest Target or Toys R Us, but that's just me. There's nothing outstanding here that's going to rock your world or convince you to put him on your top ten of the year come January, but he's a fun little toy that fits in well with the other movie lines.
