Marvel Legends - WHITE TIGER!

Marvel Legends Infinite Series - Rhino Wave - White Tiger - Hasbro 2015

White Tiger is one of those characters that I've always wanted to know more about, but never really made the time to do so. I've seen her in the Ultimate Spider-Man cartoon, in the Disney Infinity game, and on a bunch of comic covers (that I haven't read). The identity of this figure is a little confusing, because on the cardback it says her name is Angela Del Toro, but all my research tells me that this is actually Ava Ayala. Ava Ayala is the fifth White Tiger (Angela was 4th), but she definitely has had the most widespread popularity of the bunch. She's one with the toys and cartoon after all. Her powers come from her Jade Amulets that belonged to her older brother Hector (the first White Tiger from 1975). The amulets give her heightened speed, agility, senses, fighting skills, etc, etc, etc. (Pretty much the same as all animal-based characters with magic jewelry). White Tiger is yet another in the legion of characters I never expected to see in Marvel Legends. Hasbro is killing it lately.  Let's check out Ava below!


































Here are some images from the comics.







Here is her character from the Disney Infinity game.




Here are a few stills from the Ultimate Spider-Man animated series.







And here are a few pics of Angela Del Toro as White Tiger.  I thought This was the same character before studying up for this review.
(Apparently Hasbro thinks they're the same, too).





















Time for some Group and Comparison Pics!


Here is White Tiger with her wave-mate, Misty Knight.





And with a couple of her body clones, Anya Corazon and Mayday Parker.





And with her fellow kitty, Black Cat.




Cheers!

  1. I really like White Tiger. I like her simplicity. But I gotta ask, did you managed to find a Misty whose pupils are not too far apart?

    1. My Misty isn't bad at all. I've seen pictures of some crazy eyes versions online but I got lucky. Actually it's not luck persay, I have a friend who orders cases and selects good ones for me. He's getting me Valkyrie and Thundra by next week! Woohoo

    2. Oh, those are great. Val is a bit too tall for me. But they look great!
