You are exactly right my friend. As I said above it doesn't matter how great the toy is when you make it in the wrong scale.

This is a simple answer for me after a long time thinking about it and coming to my decision. The best figure of the two is Studio 86 Magnus in every way but one. The one way that it falls down to Kingdom Magnus is simply scale, SS86 does not look like it is even in the same line as the others including Rodimus Prime and Springer. So the simple answer is it doesn't matter how spectacular a figure is if it is in the wrong scale and that is why I still have Kingdom Magnus on my shelf. I am staff baffled by you giving scale to SS86 in the end but I still enjoyed the review.

Hello

I mostly like the color deco on this guy but the orange face is kinda offputting to me for some reason.

I feel like Revoltech is going to update/reissue the Amazing Yamaguchi Cable. If they do, you should think about reviewing that one. It is around $100 though I think. I hope it gets reissued soon! Great review! I just hit the subscribe button.

Nice review man I think an amazing figure and I passed on the retro one that released not too long ago because this one is just way better and also congratulations on 410 subscribers

Great video

Wish I had time to chat with you at the show...it was all a blur!

The neck peg pops out of the Dark Hawk figure and the collar will come straight off, apply some heat and it'll come off with a little force, then you can pop on the other scarf piece. It was a pleasure to meet you again briefly at the show - dsn1014

Swap the new head onto the love triangle version for the definitive Jean💯

i like the darker one better.

I don't think it's a fair comparison, but while SS86 is a far superior figure, Kingdom isn't nearly as bad people want to say. Both figures do "what the original toy did" in different ways - SS86 can carry 4 cars on his back in truck mode, kingdom has the inner prime robot. Fans have pretty much demanded UM be able to do what the toy could do, favoring (stupidly in my opinion) the vehicle mode feature in that regard. SS86, again while technically superior has been designed with the vehicle as a priority over the robot, making him wildly out of scale in robot mode. He is based on the Masterpiece MP-21, but improved and smaller with 8 years of design improvements. The biggest issue with SS86 Ultra Magnus is how large he is. Ultra Magnus should not be taller than Grimlock, particularly in a line that emphasizes scale. Your scale comes down to preference, mine comes down to movie / show accuracy - and Kingdom wins in that regard. I'm not dumping either. I'm going to explain in my stop motion series how he goes from Kingdom to SS86 to make them both in scale, but 'on the shelf' he's too big next to the other figures.

No softness on mine’s joints

Nice review I didn’t pick this up I am not interested in the character like I’m interested in Thor but not black winter looks like it nice figure but I’m good and also one more sub and you hit 400 subscribers so when you do, congrats

Nice review I did not get this but I am thinking about it have a great day

Sasquatch version has 3 guns not 2

I’m looking back at this review and I’m like nice content. Also I got my cable like a couple days ago. It’s really good thanks a lot you helped and I’d like to comparisons because I don’t have the older cables and I wish I do.

I have all of these too . The Sasquatch wave Cable had to be fixed. The left arm fell off at the bicep joint when you tried to pose it in certain positions . I had to deepen the socket and it's fine now. Love the Juggernaut wave articulation . Still this new one is pretty nice .

great content dan. keep it up! glad i stumbled upon your channel. -your new friend, cal

i bought 5 of these guys. i’ll buy 5 of the blue version and then 5 of the archangel when they reveal them 😌

i’m eventually gonna have 2 of these 3 packs simply to have both versions of nick fury. thanks for your insight 🤜

great content. like earned! 🤜

Nice review man I’m still waiting on this figure. It gets me mad but you have an amazing video. Good job.

Man I wish the media would give the same amount of spotlight they gave Wolverine.

Love your stuff I was waiting for this let’s go good job man. 👍👍👍

ML is definitely a winner 🏆

Nice review man good stuff I only picked up the Logan and sabertooth 2 pack and I loved it and the brood wolverine and lalandra 2pack that was good but I only got it for the lalandra

Nice video love your stuff I hope you put out that angel review

Awesome video keep up the good work sorry I am super late to the video I got every figure but I did not get night crawler

I got these guys three days ago, and I was really excited for Zola. But when I got it, I was more impressed with the Heinreich figure, more than the Zola figure. I still love them both as I don't have any rendition of them in my collection. This set is a solid 9/10! If there was one thing I would've wanted in this set, would be fist hands for Zola.

the 97 headsculpts are great but they don't look anything like on tbe show, that kind of ruins the 97 figure for me, also the body is just weird, it has no shape too it, too simplistic

Good review.!! full of good information.!! Thank you.!! I really like both characters.!! ML did us ...'well'...!! Solid.!!

The main thing I like about the 97 version is the articulation but interms of design I like the love triangle Jean Grey

Awesome video, man! This is the comparison I've been waiting for. This is the definitive guide to ML Jack O' Lantern figures. Jack is one of my favorite lesser known villains simply because of how awesome he looks. And he looks good in every version. Spooky flaming pumpkin for a head will always be one of the coolest designs ever. As for the figures, as a kid I always wanted to get ToyBiz one, but I simply couldn't find him. Then I just considered him outdated and forgot about him. After this video I kinda want him again, partly to fulfill my childhood dream. I have the second one, from the Absorbing Man wave. It's a very frustraiting figure. Sure, he looks cool on the shelf but only as long as you don't touch him. And like you pointed out, his articulation isn't great. Yesterday I finally got the new Retro Jack O' Lantern and it feels like this is the one I always wanted. Even though I had to pay a little bit more than usual for him (ML are insanely overpriced in my country and just became slightly more expensive) I have no regrets. This is definitely one of the best figures in this year for me. No matter who else they make, Jack will always have a spot in my top 10 list for 2024.

Toybiz nightcrawler is better then these two new figures but the cartoon X-Men 97 is far better and pin less . Then the old Hasbro nightcrawler . It's the same Bucky cap mold but with some improvement. In My opinion

Nice I ran into him,yesterday at my GameStop. He looked pretty awesome. But couldn’t pull the trigger at the moment unfortunately 😅

I like them both but we have a ton of gangsters in suits so I like having the my thug version to display along with my Mafia boss characters.

Brighter colors always look cooler on a shelf. It makes figures “pop”. Also are more classic, Bronze Age . Darker colors are mostly modern takes. 90s and up . The prefer the new one because I collect from pure nostalgia. Great review

I agree, plus a Hobie head sculpt 😮a must have.

I like the original tombstone homecoming hands get dirty knuckle throwing punches choking spiderman 💯

Love your video

That Haslab fell flat!😂

Waiting on my preorder and can’t wait to get it. I personally prefer the lighter red as it’s technically more of a scarlet, but either way it looks like the best Ben yet.

the first tombstone is straight out of sal buscema art in the 90s. but they gave his acessory of the crowbar to the new figure lol

I feel like the VHS Cyclops looks better overall and it’s easy to remove the shading def picking that one up

I find it funny how Tombstone, who is a b list or c list villain, got such a beautiful and well detailed figure for a reasonable price. Out of all the characters Hasbro could pour a ton of love into, Tombstone would not be one of my guesses. Feels like some of these sculptors and painters have a once in a while day where they're in an extremely good mood and pump quality figures like this

Newer doesn't mean better as this Jean is designed by a dumb woman who desexualized everything versus Jim Lee who is a legend in the comic industry.

Bigger proper shaped breasts on the old one gives her a presence that the new one can never achieve. And it is apples vs oranges, fruit being the only similarity. One is comic accurate from the 90s and the other is a watered down, desexualized version of the current times we live in. I'm just glad they didn't make her ugly too which is an ongoing trend these days with females in TV shows and movies. Funny thing is Hasbro makes completely naked male figures like the upcoming KaZar, but make sure to hide the beauty of female bodies. Goblin queen figure is even more desexualized than the animated series. Far gone are the good old days of the 90s. I paid a hefty amount for the old Jean and the new one doesn't look appealing to me because it's from the current animated line. She would go in with the animated what if section of the collection if someone was into those. The old Jean can go into the comics OR the 90s animated show being not overly cartoons and saturated in colors.

Not even close lol

I have both and I completely agree with you. I was actually in the process of making a custom suited body Tombstone when this one was announced. On an unrelated topic, where did you find the skins for your Fortnite arcade cabinets? I've been wanting to change mine like this.
