Impressive, as always. Not sure about the base body on this one with the rubber covered arms though, but it looks like the elbow bends enough for that pulled back bow shot.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Elbow bending was never a problem with Sheva/S.Connor arms. It's the swivel point which these arms lack...

Unless HT improves from this protype.... (a.t.m) this figure looks like recycled S.Connor's arms on a regular TTF body.

Jessica Biel is yum. But I think the likeness is just a tad off... similar to Black Widow.

I personally think this HS is a much better representation of its subject than the black widow HS. It certainly looks like Jessica Biel from more angles than the Scarlett Johanssen one does. As for the arms, considering most people will display this (I'd imagine) wielding the bow with an arrow cocked, I don't think the rubber-encased arms work overly well. The unsightly bulge caused by the fold just looks silly, and the wrist is forced to fully flex in order to hold the arrow; this is not how a bow is drawn. I appreciate that this is a toy, but at the price HT figures go for, I'd expect a higher degree of accuracy, especially in an archer figure.

What a weird license choice. I actually kinda dig Blade 3, but figures from Blade 2 would be so much cooler - I imagine HT could do a killer Reaper! That said, I wouldn't mind a Drake figure if they choose to continue the line.
