I was absolutely excited to get her, but I display Knightfall Batman and a kit-bashes Hush/Atomic Skull 2-pack Superman, who are true 7-inch figures so she towers over them. “Justice by snu-snu!!” I’m going to do some kitbashing and customizing as needed to make Power Princess into a very believable Wonder Woman.

You need to put some primer, brother. The plastic is smooth. Also, in Marvel legends, you need to figure out which parts are having some paint chipping. Therefore, you need to sand it then primer it, then paint.
@BenzoFigures8 ай бұрын
Yeah I use the vallejo black primer a lot. I'll definitely try sanding down the plastic before priming it next time. What grit sandpaper do you suggest?
@mikoswabe97547 ай бұрын
Use a gray or white primer. It depends on what color you are going to use. For example, If you want the color RED to POP ( bright ), you need white primer. With that, you don't need 3 coats of paint to see the red you need. I mean you need a thin coat of paint then the color you want should POP immediately. When the paint is thick, it can chip easily. Any grit is okay. But 200 and 400 is what I suggest.@@BenzoFigures

He tells you at 2:36 basically primer helps paint stick onto the figure better. But you don't have to if you wash the figure with warm soapy water, scrub with tooth brush, also if you don't want paint rub, you gotta prep/sand the joints 😢 it takes couple hours... Unless you're pro.
@BenzoFigures8 ай бұрын
So when applying paint onto plastic, it can be a little rough since sometimes paint doesn't stick onto the plastic too too well. You can still paint without primer, but it'll take multiple coats to smooth it out. Using a primer first helps the paint stick onto the plastic. You will still need to use multiple coats, but the painting process will be a lot more smoother. I hope this helps, and let me know if you have any more questions

Power Princess is such a huge improvement in the female action figures for Marvel Legends. I have the Mezco Wonder Woman, and Power Princess puts that figure (a premium figure) to shame. None of the premium figure companies (Mafex, Mezco, or Revoltech) have made a wonder woman in the 1/12 scale that is better than the Marvel Legends Power Princess. I'm not some super Marvel Legends fanboy either because I have talked my fair share of ish about how trash the Marvel Legends female figures have been. My only hope is that the Hasbro Marvel Legends team doesn't go back to giving us those super skinny, poor articulation, no accessories having, hard to pose figures. The GI JOE retro Scarlet and Power Princess figures seem to indicate that Hasbro has listened to the toy collector community when the demand for better figures was made.

Mcfarlane made the best wonder woman figure. ML fans are in denial but trust me. His is far more better quality. The articulation is superior right down to the waxy plastic they used for her skin. It gives life to her flesh tones instead of the pasty white like this ML figure acquires. You can see that her knees are allso painted with a blush to show the difference in skin tone. Her iconic star studded panties are of a very soft flexable material so that she can bend in to agile and flexable positions. She's bult like a dump truck in the back with a intentional sculpted big bottom and has a nice rack up front. I mean she's got the assests man. The metalic paints on her corset adds a nice touch and difrenciates the meterial between that and her textured red and white boots. Finally the head sculpt is Amazing. Her hair looks comic accurate and her face is absolutely beautiful. Like she's actually beautiful and looks close snd comparable to Lynda Carter. ML power princess has a harsh looking beastly mug that i think is more suitable for a she hulk figure.
