Marvel Legends has historically struggled with female characters. Until recently, a properly proportioned and functionally articulated female body seemed a unicorn in the line. Electromagnetic Manipulation: An experimental procedure temporarily heightened his powers, allowing Electro to store and absorb a seemingly limitless amount of electricity. He could fly by generating a massive field of electricity which could propel him through the air. He also seemed to gain the power of magnetokinesis to a certain degree, allowing him to manipulate magnetic fields and move objects in a manner similar to that of Magneto, and could overcome his old weakness to water by using the electromagnetic fields around him to vaporize water before it could touch him. He was able to defeat Nate Grey by manipulating the bio-electric currents in the human brain to turn Nate's own psionic powers against him and do the same to make Spider-Man beg. Presumably, had he further explored the implications of this power, he would have been able to control people's entire bodies this way as well, and might have been able to control machines in a similar way. He was also able to painfully paralyze anyone by overcharging their synapses' bio-electrical transmissions. However, Electro somehow seems to have lost these new abilities after he threw himself into the Hudson River, resulting in an explosion. MARVEL COMIC-INSPIRED DESIGN: This Retro 375 Collection Marvel’s Electro figure has premium design, detail, and articulation for posing and display in a Marvel collection. Electrical Detection: Electro's electrical powers also granted him certain sensory and manipulative abilities. By "feeling" the course of electricity through the circuitry of any electrically powered device, Electro could override the system and make the device obey his mental commands. Electro could disconnect alarm systems, control computers in a limited way, or overload any electrically controlled system that was insufficiently shielded.Electro was also a member of Mysterio's Sinister Seven, created to combat Spider-Man's insane, homicidal clone, Kaine. However, Kaine disappeared and with no further need to keep the group together, it was disbanded, and Dillon returned to his self-imposed exile. [21] Upgrade [ ] No action figure in the entire history of Marvel Legends exemplifies the absolute helplessness with the female form than Emma Frost. Emma combines the ongoing and outright confusion over anatomy, the ridiculous use of articulated joints in arms and legs that were too small to support or hide them, and carelessness with the overall quality of the product. Electrical Conversion into Enhanced Physical Attributions: The electricity coursing through his altered body augmented his strength, speed, and recuperative powers. When fully charged, Electro was able to lift (press) about 500 pounds.

Hoping to energize his campaign to smear Spider-Man's reputation, J. Jonah Jameson surreptitiously secured Electro's supercharged services to battle the web-slinger on national television. Before an audience of millions, Spider-Man stood triumphant once more. Electro's extended string of ignominious defeats nearly came to an end when the world-weary villain, hungry for respect, attempted to deprive the entire city of power by drawing it into his body. Dillon almost killed himself as a result, again meeting defeat at the hands of Spider-Man. Later, he fought Daredevil (again) and the confused alien named Omega the Unknown, [16] then briefly joined the Frightful Four and fought Spider-Man and the Fantastic Four at their side. [17] [18] Other Sinister Six Incarnations [ ]Sometime later, Doctor Octopus, in his plan to be remembered as the man who saved Earth, offered the chance to stop the Greenhouse Effect, as well as speed it up, using a special device connected with different satellites in Earth's orbit. Disguised as Al Gore, Chameleon tried to accelerate the decision of the world's leaders on the matter, but was uncovered by Spider-Man, who interrupted the scene along with the Avengers. When the Chameleon was freed, he arrived in the Mediterranean on a meeting with the rest of the team. The Avengers followed them and arrived, fighting the Sinister Six, and while they were all defeated by the villains, the price of the battle was Electro, who was sent to space by Thor. [26] Immunity to Electricity: Electro's body was immune to the effects of its electricity and that of other sources as well. Hence, Electro could not be electrocuted no matter how great the voltage. Electro returned to Earth and attempted to avenge himself on Thor by forcing an A.I.M. scientist to convert him to generate protons instead of electrons, but he was defeated when Spider-Man (actually Doctor Octopus' mind in Spider-Man's body at that time) managed to convert him into a stream of protons and trap him. Spider-Man placed Electro in a containment cell next to Sandman's in his hidden underwater lab. [27] Charging: Electro could charge himself up to reach high maximum voltage. Here he could grow in height to an enormous humanoid looking creature made up of nothing but electricity.

Once literally a joke character from the Marvel 80s imprint Star Comics, Spider-Ham became a beloved part of Spider-Man lore. That's even more now, thanks to his big-screen debut in Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse. Fans long lobbied for Hasbro to produce this figure, and when they finally did in 2018, hearts broke everywhere. Recharging: By using an external electrical power source to recharge his body's energy reserves, he could expend electrical energy indefinitely without diminishing his personal reserves. Electrocution: The electric flux of Electro's skin was such that when his electric charge was at a maximum, a person touching him was in danger of being electrocuted. Disruption of Wall-Crawling Abilities: Electro's powers also can disrupt Spider-Man's electrostatic ability to cling to walls.

Oh, boy. In fairness, this version of Red Skull hails from the early days of Toy Biz Marvel Legends, but even by Series 5, which this guy was part of, sculpting and articulation had graduated to what fans would come to expect from the line. PREMIUM ARTICULATION AND DETAILING: This quality 3.75-inch Legends Series Retro 375 Collection Marvel’s Electro figure features multiple points of articulation and is a great addition to any action figure collection.
