That Figures: REVIEW: GI Joe: Resolute - GI Joe Battle Set Scarlett (http://that-figures.blogspot.com/2012/03/review-gi-joe-resolute-gi-joe-battle_19.html)
Final Thoughts
The GI Joe: Resolute Scarlett is probably best described as ''good but flawed.'' Whilst there's certainly a lot to like about the figure - the body sculpt is nicely detailed and proportioned, the accessories are cool and the paint app is pretty good - there's also a pretty major issue when it comes to the figure's head sculpt. With a more in-proportion head this would have been a great figure, as the body sculpt and range of movement it allows is great. She's fun to pose and I would imagine kids would really enjoy playing with her. But there's also a slightly toy-like aspect to her proportions that just throws the eye and I can imagine a lot of collectors wincing when they see how odd she looks in some poses.
But if you can get over the weird proportions of the figure or find a pose that minimizes the impact of her massive heed, then this is a pretty good figure and a great addition to the Resolute GI Joe Battle Set.
A good toy and nice-looking figure spoilt by the odd head proportions.
Final Score: B
