Marvel Select: Colossus
The design of this Marvel Select figure really takes me back to the 90s’ when Jim Lee was working on the X-Men comics. What I love most about this figure is the proportions. Despite having superhuman strength, Colossus does not have the muscle mass of Hulk or the Juggernaut. He is, for the most part, taller and leaner in comparison. It even looks that way when standing this figure next to those 2 other Select figures as well. For the toy photographers out there this figure does have an ankle pivot so a running pose is possible to achieve without the assistance of a back drop. The leg articulation may prove to be a nuisance however. It’s one of those joints that moves outwards instead of forward. The upper chest piece is removable but I haven’t been able to do it with my figure. Compared it’s Marvel Universe counterpart, the paint apps are much brighter on this version. For my personal preference, I like this one over the Marvel Universe and if you’re unable to track down the old Toy Biz Marvel Legends figure, then this Diamond Select is the one you should go with instead.

Marvel Select: Ultron
I can’t believe that it took Marvel this long to produce an Ultron figure in it’s classic form. Not only is it a great Marvel Select figure but it is also one of the most articulated Diamond Select has produced. The articulation is almost on par with a Marvel Legends figure. The sculpt and the simplicity of the paint apps really make this one shine. The only downside is the scale. He seems a bit too small but when it looks this good, you simply can’t complain.
