Marvel Legends Secret Wars Titania review (2025)

Titania was one of a handful of new characters specifically created for the Marvel Super Heroes Secret Wars maxiseries. I loved reading the heroes and villains colliding in a high stakes battle royal. Titania stood out as she was another tough brawler Dr. Doom added to his army to hold off the super hero faction led by Captain America.

She’s had a long grudge with She-Hulk and was part of Baron Zemo’s Masters of Evil that invaded the Avengers’ mansion. That’s more than enough of a resume for Titania to become a long-overdue figure for Marvel Legends. Hasbro released a Secret Wars anniversary wave that was pretty disappointing to me since Titiania was the only character that was central to that storyline that still needed a figure. Or at least how characters looked in Secret Wars (see The Wrecking Crew, She-Hulk and Volcana).

I was largely impressed by the reveal of Titania minus one obnoxious design change. Let’s see if Skeeter MacPherran’s alter ego gets a worthy figure or if it needs to get swatted to the back of the display.

Packaging: Hasbro went with another retro style presentation for the Secret Wars wave. In this case I’m glad they went that route instead of including a Build-A-Figure that I really wanted. The Secret Wars logo against the light and darker blue backdrop is pretty striking. This is certainly one that will look good on the wall for MOC collectors. The window shows off Titania and all of her accessories.

Over on the back is a nice image of Titania along with a surprisingly comprehensive bio that explains her origin and role during Secret Wars. Below is the cross sell with the other figures in the wave and instructions on how to use the shield.

Likeness: Titania is a powerhouse brawler. Conveying that with one of the standard female molds wasn’t going to work so she gets a newly designed sculpted body to both give her the appropriate size and to also handle the required unique elements of her costume.

With the exception of that sensational She-Hulk figure from the retro Iron Man wave, the ML female figures don’t often fully embrace the big hair era of the 80s. This has dinged a few figures in the past and it shows up again with Titania, who would have benefited from high hair like her chief rival. The hair sculpt isn’t bad but it would have been even better wider and longer.

Her head sculpt is solid with a sneering, intense expression. It fits her brash personality perfectly. The sculpt also incorporates her spiked studs along her sleeves and boots. And nice work on having the thigh high boots flaring out.

I appreciate the Marvel Legends team stayed (mostly) true to her classic design and incorporated her big gold belt around her waist The one area that was lacking is the execution of her mask, which is styled more like a wrestling mask as it ends at the middle of her neck instead of just a tight fit around her head.

Scale: Titania is listed at 6’6″ so she’s no longer a wallflower. She should be taller than most of her Masters of Evil associates — she is but just barely. This would have been accomplished easier if her hair was higher. She is looking up at She-Hulk who stands at 6’7″. The figures match up fairly well with Titania not looking like an undersized chump next to her.

Paint: The paintwork is pretty solid. Her bright orange hair is very much how it was colored in the comic books. The detail in the head sculpt is excellent from the seething eyes with a subtle trace of red around them, the clean work on the teeth and the dark red lipstick.

For the most part the studs are also very clean with just a few bits of overspray along the arms.

There are a few things that aren’t comic accurate that take the paint score down though. Let’s go with the most ludicrous. In her original comic design, much like many characters, Titania’s outfit forms a T with a plunging neckline. For the shy wallflower this was an expression of her feeling empowered and to show off her new physique.

The ML team clearly decided this was too risqué for a figure that probably wasn’t going to be spotted by too many pearl-clutching adults at Target and painted this area pink. Most collectors quickly hit that area up with a little acetone to wipe the upper section pink paint off since her base paint is flesh. The waist section’s base coat isn’t flesh so that requires more work. It’s annoying that something this basic to an accurate comic book look has to be censored for…reasons.

Another far less important paint change was Titania should be wearing gloves. For whatever reason that made her look tougher. Hopefully I can find a decent paint match to give her the full comic book look.

Articulation: Titania is a brawler and is all about sucker punching and beating down smaller opponents. She-Hulk’s hair restricted some of her movement, but her longer arms provided her greater reach to overcome the lack of butterfly shoulders.

It feels noticeably missing with Titania despite her arms being fairly proportionally accurate. She can still hit some fun brawling poses even though she will have to get in close for her attacks.

I’m pretty sure Titania has that less poseable neck joint, which limits her range of movement. That’s unfortunate since the hair sculpt was done in a way to not be in the way of posing her.

Titania lacks thigh articulation but has it in the boot a decent amount above the knee joint. She’s got great range with her legs and do a solid high kick. And her tilting torso allows her some better-than-expected side to side movement.

Titania has:

• neck
• ball-jointed shoulders
• bicep
• elbow (double-jointed)
• wrist
• wrist hinge
• torso
• waist
• hip
• knee (double-jointed)
• ankle

Accessories: Titania doesn’t have an abundance of accessory options, so she was a smart choice for a wave with a built-in gimmick.

She comes with two grasping hands. That’s it for her though I’d argue another head sculpt done with a different expression would have been a better add-on.

As part of the Secret Wars line, every figure comes with a shield with a spin on the lenticular image gimmick from the original Secret Wars line with Skeeter transforming into Titania and vice versa. There’s also a more generic Secret Wars insert you can throw in as well.

Worth It? I had every intention of paying the standard $24.99 price point for Titania whenever I found her in stores. Before that happened, Walmart had a killer sale on various figures including 50% off Marvel Legends so I got her for $12. That’s a huge deal so she was certainly worth the price for me.

Rating: 9 out of 10

Titania is really close to being a perfect take on a classic villain. Better neck range, painted gloves and a non-painted chest area would have finished putting her over the top.

Where to get It? I haven’t seen many figures from this wave at retail beyond Iron Man. If you strike out, you can always try Amazon or Entertainment Earth.
