I know a few girls that apply their makeup like this, the focus on the foundation on their face and it doesn’t match the rest of their skin tone.

She kinda reminds me of the warrior princess in the hallucinations that both Kenny as well as Kyle’s dad experienced when they “cheesed” on SOUTH PARK.

And that, my friends, is the only comment I can make about that without being censored. =0D

That Dark Phoenix figure has a great head sculpt and paint job too. Why have the marvel figures had prettier faces than the Star Wars faces? The Shae Vizla head was not good either.

In reply to Bombadgungan.

I don’t mean literally recycling a Marvel Universe head on a Star Wars figure to sell at mass retail, of course, but a head that looked more like this one would be vastly superior to the one we got to be certain. It’s the look they should have used, not the same head.

Sure, they get credit for trying. I don’t think anyone won’t give them at least some credit for making a brand new Mara completely from scratch and not recycling a dozen parts from some past figure.

After all, they nailed the body – it’s incredible and one of the best female body molds for any 3.75″ Star Wars figure ever – but the head was a misfire and one that looked more like this Black Widow sculpt would have proven a lot more popular and less controversial.

all fine and dandy with the head swapping but one thing remains… this line is a big epic fail so far! People should not have had to do this to begin with…

In reply to Darth Eddie. I believe there would have been plenty of backlash if Hasbro took the easy way out and just gave us a recycled Marvel Universe head on our Fans' Choice Mara Jade. I think we all *expected* them to sculpt an all-new head for this one. I have to give them at least some credit for trying. Unfortunately it didn't come out so great, so in the end, many of us would prefer the Black Widow head. I suppose you can say hindsight is 20/20. ;)

In reply to BigJim Slade. Comic 2-Pack

Have you tried using the head of Dark Phoenix from the comic 2-Pack? Her hair is more of a true red and it looks like the skin is lighter. It may match the skin tone of Mara better than Black Widow’s.
