Loki & Hulk 2016

Finally Loki is here this year! (2016). After the watching Marvel Cinematic Universe Hulk and Loki scene from the 2012 Avengers movie, we are expecting this duo are going to appear in most of the toy line available in the market on that year or the following year. However Playskool Heroes is a lil' more on releasing the good guys figure on 2012. We have the Avengers set and the Avengers 2 set for Playskool Heroes. Since the marvel super hero squad line of figure have Loki, Playskool Heroes should have one too!

Check out our review on Loki and Hulk!


Playskool Heroes Hulk and Loki


[Original Packaging of Hulk & Loki]

Above is the original packaging for Loki and Hulk in a 2 pack figure. New recent packaging look and Hasbro exchange the "Playskool Heroes" and the "Marvel Super Hero Adventures", since the word "Playskool Heroes" is the brand name. The previous packaging makes quite a confusion for non-superheroes fan buyers to address them.




Coming to the star of the topic, Loki is able to be describe just like any other Playskool Heroes, well made! This Loki resemble closest to the super hero squad style Loki, wears green and gold, yellow/gold cape and long horns but what not to be expect is a giant shoulder guard (but looks cool!).

Features
1. Long horns (flexible material)
2. Gold and Green
3. Super hero squad style armor
4. Cape (cloth)

Articulation
Loki possess the 8 standard articulation like any Playskool Heroes
1. Head (swivel)
2. Hands (swivel)
3. Shoulders (Composite joint)
4. Legs (single rotation, rotates together)

Height
1. Whole: 2.9 inch (including horns)
2. Loki: 2.5 inch ( not including horns)

Loki's helmet and shoulder guard are made from flexible material. About the same feel as the plastic use to make other Playskool Heroes but much flexible and durable.



[Missing grooves on the inner side of the hands]

So is there a draw back of this figure?
Yes but no big deal. As we know the Playskool Heroes have grooves in between the fingers whether on the front or the back of the hand. Loki's inner side of the hands have no grooves, missing the clear definition of its fingers. A Legoish look I must say.






As conclusion, this 2 pack figure are a great combination! Great looking Loki, good for collection and play. Hulk smash! if you don not have a purple pant hulk yet. Best of it, Loki did not made less or without articulation even he needs extra effort to assemble the extra parts(shoulder guards & helmet).
