I have been waiting so long for this figure! Psylocke has had a long and convoluted history, but she did not gain true popularity until after she went through the Siege Perilous and went from being a telepath in armor to a psychic ninja. Similarly, she went through some bad figures before we got to this awesome new figure from Hasbro.
You may notice right off the bat that my copy does not have purple hair. Apparently there is a variant floating around that sports purple hair and a darker suit. If I’m able to find another Psylocke in the wild, I will definitely get it, but this version is just fine.
The accessories she comes with are pretty cool. She is packed with her signature psi-blade, the focused totality of her psychic powers, a butterfly psychic effect that clips on to her face and a telekinetic katana. I’m so glad they gave her all of these, because these are integral parts of her appearance.
With the arrival of Psylocke we are one step closer to recreating the cover of X-men #1(1991). It seems this wave of X-men figures is arriving in Walgreens stores now, but coverage is spotty. You best bet would be to order online as most online retailers will begin shipping soon. Head over to Entertainment Earth now to preorder yours.
