G.I. Joe: The Rise Of Cobra: 3.75 Inch Baroness Attack Movie Action Figure (Wave 1 Collection 1)

When images first emerged of this figure they garnered a lot of critcism and even I felt it failed in many respects.

BUT, once I got this new BARONESS in hand, my opinion changed completely and it now rates as my favourite version of the classic Cobra villainess.

Granted, it looks NOTHING like Sienna Miller (which is a pity!), but the face is way better than images suggest. Also, the body is well detailed and can actually be posed in a 'feminine' manner (a rarity for a 'female'action figure).

My only grumble is with the accessories: The 'working rocket launcher' is useless and can be dumped right away, but it's disappointing that this figure (unlike the "Paris Pursuit" version of the Baroness in Wave 2) doesn't come with a decent weapon. Good job I have plenty of spares!!!

This is a vast improvement on her '80's figure, as I have the original to compare. She still has a hunch, but it's not as promenent as the original. She come's with two pistol's, an energy weapon, a rocket launcher, a grappling hook `thing', and a stand for her.
