ML 11 Taskmaster

This figure is pure quality!  Taskmaster comes with a plethora, yes a plethora of accessories.  Included are a sword sheath, Billy club,sword, pistol, shield and air scooter.  Jesse Falcone has answered our prayers my brotha’s!  The paint apps on the weapons/accessories are pretty basic.  The exception is the sword sheath.  It has a great color wash that gives it the look of worn leather.  Taskmaster also has a great stand for lots of poses.  Now to Taskmaster himself!  Paint apps are very good.  All white pieces have a blue wash that gives Tasky an ethereal effect.  I love how they painted the inside of the hood a nice camel color that matches the other accents.  It would have been easy enough for Toy Biz to leave the inside of the hood white, so kudos to them.  The bands around his leg and holster have a modeled blue and brown paint app.  It’s interesting and I kind of like it.  The only sloppiness I see is on the gold clasp of the cape.  My figure is really sloppy there.  Skull mask has nice paint apps except for the eyes.  I agree with all the other reviews that he really needed pupils instead of the all white eye.  The sculpt of this character is really well done.  The belt is very detailed with a whip molded on and a great buckle.  The body is the same one used for Bullseye in ML9 and is one of my favorites to date.  Taskmasters hands have no articulation, but are molded to hold his PLETHORA of weapons.  Toy Biz did a really good job on his boots.  The fold on these boots is much smaller and looks great. They could actually be switched with ML 10 Cyclops and both figures would be more comic book accurate.  The head sculpt is very well done.  It has wrinkles on the face and head whether by design or accident, it give the sculpt a lot of character.  Taskmaster is my favorite of the ML11 release, very well done with little to complain about.
