Got my Kang, Black Widow and Movie Iron Man a couple of days ago. Iron Man looks amazing, Kang OK, Black Widow is based on a Greg Land 'thing' and therefore does not have the best costume / hair.

I think the Widow costume for the figurine is perfect.  It's her face that I'm not that sold on.  I'll get her anyway as she's a favorite of mine.

The owner of my shop ordered two Electros, and one had the same lightning bolt broken off on the right arm. Luckily the other figure was still intact.

Next up: Juggernaut and Spider-Woman.

Funny how the Electros have been so consistently messed up in shipping.  Any one have a problem with Black Bolt's nose smashed in?  I noticed the same problem with the four Human Torch figures I've seen, including mine.  Their similar poses must allow for the same bouncing around in their packaging.

Not for me.  Both Black Bolt and Human Torch that I have arrived just fine.

So far I've had minimal trouble with the physical condition of the
figures. Elektra's sais were slightly bent, as was Mystique's gun and Kraven's
spear. No actual breakage on any of them.

Kraven's spear was a bit curved for me, but it was easy enough to repair.

Other than that, no real issues at all.

Aside from the afore mentioned lightning bolts, I also got a Lizard with a busted up tongue.  Had the same probs as everyone else with Kraven & Elektra (easily fixed) as well as Nick Fury's pistol.  Oh...and Dr. Octopus came with a broken pincer.

As far as my entire collection goes, the muzzle on one of Red Skull's guns came broken off.  Couldn't fix it, but it looks like he's holding a grenade now, so I don't mind.  Doc Ock had several broken pincers, as Brad's did, but I managed to fix those.  Cap's shield and Thanos' hand came detached from the figurines but I glued them back on.  Looks great. Other than that, no complaints.
