| • | They don't call her 'Deathstrike' for nothing! She's suffered a life filled with betrayals and heartbreak. While some seek traditional remedies for these common troubles, Lady Deathstrike wants much more: retribution, bedlam, and revenge! | | • | From Marvel Legends Bring On The Bad Guys Series 13, this almost unbelievable action figure stands roughly 6-inches tall and features the ruthless villainess in all her vengeful glory.

Give her the chance by taking her with you today! | | • | Lord Dark Wing, Lady Deathstrike's father, wanting to create an army of superhuman soldiers for Japan, invented the process for bonding the virtually indestructible steel alloy adamantium to human bone. But his plans were stolen. His daughter, Yuriko Oyama, grew increasingly hateful towards her father after her brothers were killed in Lord Dark Wing's service. | | • | Seizing the first available opportunity, Yuriko (Lady Deathstrike) lashed out and killed Lord Dark Wing. Later, she adopted her late father's radical views. | | • | Her first vengeful task: find the one responsible for stealing her father's adamantium plans. To this day, Lady Deathstrike maintains her focus and her mission: murder and mayhem as a means toward all ends. |

 LADY DEATHSTRIKE!! WATCH OUT, WOLVERINE. June 25, 2006
Lady Deathstrike is a really nice figure. She's not one of my favorite characters, but she is certainly necessary for your X-Man collection. The figure is nicely detailed and articulated pretty well. Her look is true to the comic book. Her cybernetic arms and enlarged hands are nice, too. I fear they might not be as durable as other figures' arms, but I haven't had any trouble yet. I also agree with the previous reviewer--her face lacks any expression at all. As mean and angry as this gal is, she ought to look a little angry. She comes with a great comic book where she goes after Wolverine at a time where he doesn't have either his adamantium skeleton or accelerated healing factor. Marvel Legends continues with its "Build A Figure" campaign. Lady Deathstrike comes with a piece of a larger figure that can be assembled when the other figures--and their respective pieces in the series--are purchased. When completed, this series builds the X-Men villain, Onslaught. Onslaught isn't as big as the past characters (Galactus, the Sentinel, Apocalypse, or Giant Man), but he still looks fine and is nicely detailed. Onslaught is a great character and has good articulation, but the characters in this series sell themselves and I would have bought them regardless of the Onslaught figure. This series of figures also includes a character-dedicated diorama, or backdrop, that Lady Deathstrike can be posed in front of for display purposes. She is in good supply so getting her should be easy. I highly recommend this figure to Marvel Legends/X-Men fans.
 Striking Out On Her Own June 23, 2006
Lady Deathstrike is one of Wolverine's top enemies and as is typical of some of his greatest enemies she has claws. She's always been a visually interesting comic character due to her over long cybernetic arms and crazy stretched out claw hands. She has top notch fighting skills which make her all the more dangerous.
Her cyber arms and hands look good and her body is a thin female and her outfit matches the comics spot on but then you hit her face sculpt. I don't know what happened. Marvel Legends line figures typically sport top notch sculpting but her face is smooth with zero expression. She's usually pretty mad all the time so I'd expect at least a scowl or something but she has this blank no-expression look on her face. She looks like a Stepford Wife from the neck up. No matter what cool fighting pose she is in it is thrown off by the vapid expression of her face. She does have decent articulation but I was disappointed that the fingers were not individually articulated. You'd think that would be a shoe in for a person with foot long fingers. Oh well.
Her accessories include a comic, a VS card; you can use the card board back as a backdrop if you want using an included stand and upper torso/head of the build a figure, Onslaught.
Onslaught himself is a bit of an unusual cat. A kind of solid projection of Professor X's bad side combined with a bit of Magneto and taken a life of its own he was bad news for a while. Not sure if he was really that popular a villain though, although he did set some heavy events into motion. The figure is not the giant build a figure (BAF) we're used to from past series and is more in scale with the regular big figures like Abomination. However, he is really massive, as in heavy and bigger than most any regular figure but don't expect a giant. He comes up to about Apocalypse's waist. He is really detailed too though and has tons of articulation so is a cool figure and they went all out on the sculpt. Still, it would have been neat to see him in a bit of a bigger size.
