Gwenpool is such a fun character. I will admit that when I first saw the concept I had zero interest. Working in a comic store didn't help, either — getting asked constantly for the variant covers she was appearing on made me annoyed with her. After reading some of the books, however, I became hooked. I was really sad to see her book get canceled, but between this and the releasing-any-day-now Marvel Legends figure, we have some things to look forward to.
Gwenpool will come with three different interchangeable face plates, two different backpacks, katanas, a set of katanas in a sheath to wear on her back, and her trusty cell phone for taking killer selfies. She will have many points of articulation for ultra-posability. There is even a loose mask included. Personally, I can't think of any other pose I would have her in on my shelf than leaping into action while taking the most dope selfie of all time — while wearing her shark backpack, of course.
I really do not have anything bad to say about this figure. Barring something catastrophic, this is one of my most-anticipated releases of the year. It is up for preorder now, but at a high mark-up on most sites. If you don't mind paying more, get one locked up for the fall right here.
