Helena Shaw (Dial of Destiny) (Indiana Jones - Adventure Series) Review

Helena Shaw (Dial of Destiny)
Indiana Jones - Adventure Series (Hasbro)While I did not like Dial of Destiny, I will set my thoughts on the film itself aside for now. Is Helena Shaw a bad figure? No...its just she is painfully boring. Like Voller she is a pegwarmer in a line that isn't short on pegwarmers. Is anyone really clamoring for a Voller figure? A Helena Shaw? Not really. Not when the line is missing so many other figures of characters people would actually want. There is a reason this figure has ended up by the case full at Ollies.

The likeness is ok again helped by the face printing tech. Her shirt, boots and pants are well sculpted. But in terms of accessories? She is pretty light. She has a backpack and a repackaged light from the Dial of Destiny Indy. There is a reason she was packaged with one of the Temple of Doom Shrine BAA pieces in that it's really the only reason (outside of custom fodder) I can think anyone would pick her up. I used her torso to make a Nepal marion for instance. If you are trying to build the artifact, just find the pieces on E-bay. Unless you are a completionist the only way I can recommend this one is if you want to do customs. And even then, you can probably source the parts online.
