Advent calendar ICFTTC 19: this pterodactyl is not a Kat... it's a Kim

Go Go Power Rangers!! Okay and if the title of the rent says it's Kim not cat pterodactyl and there's Go Go Power Rangers I can guess that you probably know that it's Kimberly from Power Rangers... she's one of the original teenagers with attitude that Zordon requested.

Articulation
I believe Kimberly is the first female of the line and she sports the articulation that future figures may use. It is very similar to a female Marvel Legends figure but she has butterfly shoulders. Also her main right hand has the correct articulation hinge to fire an arrow (referencing the Moonstar review)
4.5

Paint and sculpt
If we were to only use the the helmet head and the body she would pass with flying colors. Problem is that she has a second head which is  and unmasked head.  That head is problematic. While the heads for the black, red, and the Green Ranger have been stylized interpretations of the characters; (Probably due to Thuy Trang's untimely death) they were in 3D scans like Rangers from recent seasons... qhere was I? Their heads were stylized but they resembled the actors. On Kim's case she looks more like Kimmy Gibbler had a child with Overly attached girlfriend than she does Amy Jo Johnson.
3.5 due to the head likeness.

Accessories 
Power Bow
Power Arrow
Power Arrow effect
Blaster
Overly attached girlfriend head
Extra hands

The power bow can combine with the power axe!
5.0

Overall 
Kimberly gets a totally styling 4.33 as her final score! If it hadn't been for that messed up head sculpt she would have rated a lot higher.  2 down 4 to go... and no Dragon shield of Zack does not count. I need a normal Zack, dammit!!
