JUSTICE LEAGUE’S MARTIAN MANHUNTER/J’ONN J’ONZZ (DC COMICS ACTION FIGURE)

SUMMARY:

From DC Comics’ Justice League action figure series, this approximately 7½ -inch Martian Mahunter (aka J’onn J’onzz) figure has a heavily muscular physique. 

With the exception of his attached blue rubber cloak, his entire costume is painted on.  The figure possesses the following articulation:  1. With effort, the head can turn a full 360-degrees.  2.  Aided by elbow joints, the otherwise stiff arms will move fairly well and can extend outwards.  3. Despite its limber knee joints, the legs barely move.  5.  For some unknown reason, the blue boots will swivel a full 360-degrees.  6.  If properly positioned, he can indefinitely retain some a standing pose.  7.  The bottom of his right boot includes a single peg hole to insert J’onn J’onzz on any display bases he may fit.    

REVIEW:

Sporting a spot-on resemblance, including his red eyes, this super-ripped Justice Leaguer effectively brings back memories of his classic look.  Its high-caliber paint job and sturdy construction are this Martian Manhunter’s most vital assets.  However, the figure’s stiffness, unusual heaviness, and almost non-existent articulation, however, doesn’t make it an ideal choice for a kid’s playtime.  Instead, this statue-like figure proves best as a display-only option for J’onn J’onzz fans.  Its imposing presence should inspire some interesting comparisons to his various other figure incarnations.   

ADDITIONAL CONTENT:

To the best of this reviewer’s recollection, this figure might come with a Justice League display stand.

PACKAGING:

Being unable to pinpoint its manufacturer, this segment of the review, unfortunately, must remain incomplete.
