Marvel Universe Daredevil and Bullseye Review



Daredevil and Bullseye were some of the Marvel Universe figures, and it is about time we got an updated version.  The initial releases of these figures were relatively inarticulate.  These two figures are literally the most articulate Marvel Universe figures to date.


Both figures share a sculpt, but that works out fine.  They complement one another perfectly.  Furthermore, I believe this is a new sculpt.  I can't find a figure in my collection that shares the same sculpt.



Both figures also come with great accessories.


Bullseye is equipped with a silver pistol and throwing dagger.  They are both very soft plastic, and the dagger is slighty to small for Bullseye to hold.


Luckily, it comes with a great holster to hold the throwing dagger.


His pistol snugly fits right in the holster.



Daredevil comes with his signature baton.  It splits in half easily so he can attack with both arms.  Also, it does seem to fit in it's holster, but it is a little difficult to get in there.




As you can tell, the new sculpt has greatly improved on virtually every aspect of Daredevil.  I wish they would have used the same sculpt for Shadowland Daredevil, but oh well.  Fortunately, the new Daredevil can hold his weapon!



The original Bullseye figures is the same as the original Daredevil figure, so again, a great improvement.













Overall, I would highly recommend this pack to any action figure fan.  These figures are extremely articulate and detailed for any size figure, but especially at 1:18 scale.  I would say this figure might be worth scalper prices, because I have a feeling these will go fast in retail!

Daredevil
Articulation: Top class.  The best articulation I've ever seen.
Paint: His paint is very dark, with shadowed outlines throughout the body.  Looks great.
Sculpt: Seems to be new, and works great.
Accessories: Comes with Daredevil's signature weapon that splits in two.

Bullseye
Articulation: The same as Daredevil, amazing.
Paint: Bullseye is painted black with white stripes are his arms and legs.  The white stripes have a light "blue" tint to them.  It looks spectacular.
Sculpt: Same as Daredevil.
Accessories: Silver pistol and throwing dagger.  Both work great for Bullseye, but he can't hold his dagger.
