Drawn from the pages of Marvel comics and produced by Hasbro toy company, comes the Marvel Legends Nick Fury and Hand Ninja action figure two pack. Whether wanting to back up your ML Elektra figure with Hand Ninja(s), or wanting to head up your S.H.I.E.L.D. affiliated ML heroes with Nick Fury; this two pack is a sure star for any Marvel Legends, or general six inch scaled, action figure collection. And, with the extra S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent head, one might even call this a three pack of sorts.
APPEARANCE:
Standing 6 ? inches tall, Nick Fury/S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent has the same body as the ML Face Off two pack Punisher. With new head sculpt(s), accessories, and paint being the most drastically distinguishing differences; two others include Nick Fury/S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent has no black ammo belt and right leg pistol holster like ML Face Off Punisher. Nick Fury/S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent's body does have the same knife and sheath attached to his left leg as ML Face Off Punisher. The paint job on Fury is excellent; the dark blue suit looks smooth and glossy. The S.H.I.E.L.D. emblems painted on each arm are finely detailed. That's quite impressive considering how small and intricate the S.H.I.E.L.D. logos are.
Standing 6 inches tall, Hand Ninja is also derived from a re-use of a previous ML figure`s body. From the neck down he has ML Ronin's body, sporting a new paint job. Hand Ninja's head is a new sculpt yet still removes easily and reattaches securely like Ronin`s. This is great for simulating fatal battle damage when you battle your Hand Ninja(s) against other figures.
ACCESSORIES:
Now let's say you're content with one or both of the previous ML Nick Fury figures you may own in your ML figure collection. Whether you own the older Toy Biz blue and white Nick Fury or the recent Hasbro Samuel L. Jackson inspired Nick Fury figure; you're not really wanting a new Fury figure. Worry not, because you get to choose between Nick Fury figure or a S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent. There's an interchangeable S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent head, that can fit on the body in place of the Nick Fury head. This is a really cool feature for the two pack (as well as for action figure structure in general). Also, it's an especially thoughtful gesture for those interested in buying multiple two packs for army building. Instead of just building your Hand Ninja army while drowning in surplus Fury figures; buying multiples builds a S.H.I.E.L.D. army as well. And lastly, if you own the Samuel L. Jackson inspired ML Nick Fury figure like I do, you should know his head interchanges with this blue and white Nick Fury body.
Aside from the extra head, there's an assault rifle, a knife, a harness with holster, a pistol, a removing arm strap, and a helmet. Almost every accessory is interchangeable between Nick Fury and the S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent; except for the helmet. This will fit only on the S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent head, as the Nick Fury head will stretch the helmet out. On final note, the belt and right thigh strap do not remove.
Hand Ninja gets re used accessories including three samurai swords, and a pair of nun chucks.
ARTICULATION:
Nick Fury/S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent's got the same articulation as ML Face Off Punisher, and that's a lot. There's a ball and socket head resting atop a neck hinge. Also present are ball jointed shoulders and hips; swivel biceps, forearms, waist, thighs, and calves. Double hinged elbows and knees, hinged wrists, ankles, toes and a hinged torso are also there. Also, the four digits of each hand have a single metacarpal hinge.
Hand Ninja's highly articulated too; he's got a ball and socket head, ball jointed shoulders, wrists, hips, and ankles; double hinged elbows and knees; swivel biceps and thighs; and a hinged torso above a swivel waist.

VARIANT ALERT:
The Hand Ninja variant is the same sculpt as this one; it is painted white and black though, and considered the Chaste Ninja. The Nick Fury/S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent's variant still comes with the Agent head.. Instead of Fury, you get a Dum Dum Dugan head. Dugan is a top S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent who was one of the Commandoes from the WWII Sgt. Fury and the Commandoes comics.
