I like it, the helmet notwithstanding.
I figure it's actually Pym inside the costume, which means it;s the same guy that becomes Giant Man, which means I have no trouble accepting the "buff"ness.

Won't buy it unless they get the helmet right.

yeah, that helmet needs some work...hugs the head a bit too much. will definitely need some building up. Not in love with Cloak & Dagger...maybe it will look better "in person."
Who am I kidding, though. I'll buy them both.

Cloak & Dagger - why can't they do good female faces? That's another bad one there. And I think of Cloak's costume as blue and black (although this may be my usual problem with seeing black as blue based on the highlights).
In my LCS today I got the latest figure, Hobgoblin along with a few I was missing. Only ones I don't have now from the entire collection are Deadpool and Nighthawk. And the latter is only coz the one they got in was damaged.

I picked up the Scorpion and Guardian this WE.
Nice figurines, I really like the paint job on the Scorpion. My collection of the Spiderman universe is almost complete, the only missing character being Mysterio, I never liked this one ...

Does anyone know if they ever re-release figurines? I would like to pick up a Galactus, among others, but can't even get one off the internet. Mid-Town said that more than likely that things will get available again in the future, but who know when.

Every time someone buys one of those wretched Guardian figures, I die a little.

I will fix the canadian flag on the costume later. It will take less time than re painting a whole different character (such as Iceman or Captain Britain for example), imo ....
Is the badly painted canadian flag on the costume the only reason why you dislike this figurine so much, JB ?

I think the whole figure is a mess. Bulging muscles, head too small.
And to "fix" the flag, you'd have to completely repaint it, so you might as
well convert a Silver Surfer, as I did.

Yup. Just have to be patient. Keep checking back with Midtown.
