REVIEW: Legendary Comic Book Heroes Series 1 - PITT

Legendary Comic Book Heroes Series 1 review sponsored by BigBadToyStore.com.

Want a chance to win the first series of Legendary Comic Book Heroes, including PITT? Enter our Legendary Comic Book Heroes Giveaway today!

Ripped from the pages of the FULL BLEED comic of the same name, PITT is a MASSIVE incentive to purchase all of Legendary Comic Book Heroes series 1. I mean that both figuratively and literally. Dale Keown's awesome alien creation is amazing in figure form; stunning in both sculpt and size. Fan of the comic or not, you will be hard pressed to find a fan that doesn't think PITT looks cool.

As mentioned, you need to purchase all six figures in Legendary Comic Book Heroes series 1 in order to get PITT. Price wise, it's not too shabby of a deal: Each figure retails for around $10 making your grand total around $60. PITT is easily a $30 figure justifying half the price. Consider the other half the price of six bonus figures.

"But I don't like some of the figures in series 1." Tough, you will learn to like them for the sake of PITT. I'm not even a fan of half the characters Marvel Toys chose for this assortment, but I'd buy them all for PITT. This build-a-figure is that good.

As one might guess by now, PITT comes in six separate pieces. Assembly is pretty straight forward; simply connect the dots, or in this case, limbs. Some pressure needs to be applied for a sure fit, but once connected, this is guy isn't coming apart. PITT is a solidly constructed action figure, rivaling his smaller siblings in the quality of plastic used.

PITT measures a whopping 9 1/2" tall and around 10" wide (with his arms down) once assembled. That is a big bonus figure. To give you an idea of his hulking scale, check out this picture of him battling a Hot Toys' 12" ALIENS Alien Warrior. HUGE!

Articulation is no less staggering. PITT is loaded with movement. Ball-jointed head. Ratchet and swivel waist. Ball-jointed shoulders that click and lock into place, as do his elbows. Hinged wrists and all four fingers move. Ball-jointed thighs and hinged knees. Heck, even his toes can move! An incredible amount of articulation for a figure of this bulk.

All this comes packaged in a figure finely sculpted with dangerous detail and killer paint apps. PITT's vest and chains are separate sculpted pieces, presenting a fuller appearance to the figure. They also have individual little locks dangling freely at spots! Marvel Toys even went out of their way to create the illusion of chains under the back of PITT's vest. Push them, they aren't there, but they sure LOOK like they are. Cool stuff. As for the rest of PITT, just take a gander at the pics found here and in our photo gallery. A picture really does speak a thousand words...

In closing, if you haven't purchased Legendary Comic Book Heroes series 1, do so now to acquire this amazing build-a-figure. Heck, we think he is so cool, we are offering one lucky fan a chance to WIN PITT FREE.

Marvel Toys deserves loads of praise for this line. With an eclectic array of comic book characters and incredible new build-a-figures, Legendary Comic Book Heroes is one of the most exciting action figure lines to hit the market in a long time.
