That said, Max found one out in the wild, and, while initially grabbing it for himself, decided he felt it more appropriate for me to have her, given my general Captain America love an all. I do dig this whole look quite a bit, but I was content with the standard release, especially if it meant I didn’t have to track down an exclusive. That said, I’m not entirely sure what else there is to include with her. There’s nothing else, which does feel a little light, especially given that the standard release included a BaF piece as well. Peggy is packed with the same shield as the standard release, but now in the updated colors to match her uniform. It’s a little better than the standard release, though that may be largely due to there being less actual paint to apply. The application’s okay, though not as consistent as other releases. The head is essentially identical, but the uniform captures the more monochromatic design of this outfit. The paint work is where the changes occur for this figure. It’s not a major difference, all things considered, so I can kind of let it slide, especially given the whole “quick repaint” set-up for this one. The only issue is with the hair, as in the show Peggy had a slightly more modernized style, while this one still has her ’40s hair. Since her costume is largely unchanged in the show, it makes a degree of sense. I really liked that sculpt a lot, so I can certainly see the appeal of getting it a second time. This figure’s sculpt is identical to the standard Captain Carter. The figure stands just shy of 6 1/2 inches tall and she has 31 points of articulation. It’s not a drastically different look, but it’s a cool one, especially when paralleled to Steve’s look. While the first figure was based on Carter’s design from the premier episode of the show, this one is based on the season finale, which sees the Watcher pull Peggy from her timeline’s version of the opening scene of Captain America: Winter Soldier. Stealth Suit Captain Carter is a Target-exclusive Marvel Legends release, which hit stores in late November of last year. I took a look at the standard Captain Carter towards the end of last year, and I really liked it, so it stands to reason that another one, now in cool Winter Solider-inspired stealth colors, is probably gonna resonate well with me. With the benefit of a breather, I can better appreciate items like today’s focus, Stealth Suit Captain Carter. Weird, huh? I finally actually have the time to go back and, you know, catch up on some of the items I missed at the end of last year, when I was drowning in Legends. Man, the Marvel Legends reviews sure are spacing out a lot more than they were a few months ago. “Captain Carter’s secret stealth mission sets her on a collision course with new enemies.” STEALTH SUIT CAPTAIN CARTER MARVEL LEGENDS (HASBRO)
