Since I am on the topic of Marvel characters, I feel that it’s apt that I also share on another Kubrick Marvel figure which I got at the same time as the Kubrick Punisher mentioned in my earlier post. Yes, I present to you…
Gambit!
According to the Marvel comics, Gambit, whose real name is Remy Etienne LeBeau, is a mutant who possesses the ability to manipulate kinetic energy, as well as hypnotic charm. His choice of weapons include throwing cards and his telescopic bo staff.
For this Kubrick Gambit figure, the sculpt is actually quite detailed and the cloak looks pretty cool. The figure also comes along with his bo staff and playing cards, which, in my opinion are the essential items that should complement the figure. The sculpt and the items here will actually make the Kubrick Punisher figure pale in comparison.
Look at my cool items and cloak!

And my sexy a**.
However, despite the good reviews for this figure, there are some issues with the face paint in that there is some slop with the black paint on his face. Again, I am not sure whether its just my figure that is struck by the regular drunkard painter or an inherent issue with the batch. Another issue is that this figure suffers the same crap accessory fate as the Punisher figure in that his card accessory cannot really fit properly into his hands. DOH!
Some slop on the face black paint.
