Just remember that this is a *different* Groot than the full grown Groot we saw in the first movie. James Gunn said that he did intentionally give them different bodies to differentiate the two Groots. He was 100% CGI for both the Holiday Special and GotG3.
I cant remember if it was Gunn who said it or just something people theorized, but I saw online somewhere that one reason he turned out so differently (especially at the end) was because he spent his adolesence with huge beefy men like Drax and Thor. So he emulated them and got bigger than his "father" did.
I still haven't seen GotG 3 (I'm just busy... and lazy, and kinda checked out of the MCU) but the figures look solid. This Groot especially with all of the sculpted detail! Seems like Hasbro really pulled out all the stops for this one, only thing it could really use is a wash. The baby Rocket is okay, but I kinda like the smaller one you showed off. Sculpt work just stands out more. Completely agree, this should've been the BAF, and Cosmo packed with Rocket. I can't think of a single time a regular-sized figure was the BAF and it *didn't* come off like kind of a cheap move.
Honestly, while I've enjoyed the movies since Endgame, none have really grabbed me with the rewatch factor until GOTG3. I NEED to see it again in the theater, and then ready to fine tooth comb it once it hits Disney+. Do a marathon of all three.
They should have done more since it's a deluxe figure at a deluxe price. I'm pretty sure we all would have been able to reenact another scene than the one with the wings. "Groot, you know what to do with these..."
Robo's a man after my own heart, I have coupons, I have discounts, I have points. Makes it more fun when you can get a figures cheaper that the price tag!
I got my first Marvel Legends deluxe figure in 20th Anniversary Hulk. It was $50 on Amazon and I got it. He was going for $60 plus on eBay so I jumped on Amazon. The super annoying thing is he went down to $45 days after I bought him but whatever 😒. I really like the figure, he's what I consider the definitive Hulk figure for my Avengers team. This Groot looks awesome and those wings look so nice, great video 👍
I've been holding out on buying the whole wave because they are abundant right now and should hit clearance eventually, but after seeing the movie, I got Rocket and couldn't resist getting Mantis. Definitely need that Starlord, but I'm counting on him being easy to find later. Cosmo is a wonderfully sculpted figure too! So yeah, I'm all-in, eventually.
That's where I am. The Target sale didn't happen so I'm kind of waiting and seeing. OR, going to slowly grab them here and there over the next month or so. Don't know if I can wait for Nebula for too long.
I was pretty much the same; pulling back on MCU figures, because I am so behind on them. Then the Guardians movie comes along and opens the F***ing door 😂
I didn't get MCU figures until Black Panther II and I didn't get Groot, but I can't afford the Volume 3 figures. That's the long and short of it. I'm saving my MCU figure money for Marvels.
I am Groot? I am Groot. Translation: Did you know that they included generic stun guns for Star-Lord that are based on the single one he used during the Orgosphere heist instead of his Quad Blasters? And even though the pants portions above the boots on Rocket's lower legs are shown painted blue on his render on the box, they didn't paint them on the figure and left mismatched blue hinges with the molded black lower legs.
MS Groot is a nice stand in for king size. Groot was falling with style. G3 figures are sweet. I agree BAF. Besides Fortnite gliding wings. I want tendrils with guns to murder amoral scientists.
I tend to skip MCU hero figures since there's so many versions of the same characters but I do love a good villain and man, I so hope we see an MCU High Evolutionary figure down the road, that guy was wonderfully hateable.
“Little down there.” “Don’t put wood in your mouth!” “Quit jerking on it.” (Groot’s butt) #phrasing! WAS there a sale this past wkd? I never saw any signs for this line or anywhere else in toy dept? Holler? Was your mother a coal miner’s daughter? 😉 I could see Rocket/Cosmo 2pk with Groot head as Plan A. Maybe for/IF we get a wave 2? Cosmo’s new look + Groot-Thing. Then HE, Gamora, Kraglin II, comic Guardians Starhawk, Martinex, and…Phyla-Quasar? BAF: King Groot WITH EXTRA ARMS! (Or Charlie-27 on a Hulk/Caliban base.)
Hey Fwoosh are you use the Hasbro Guardians for your display or customize them into comic version and use the S.H Figuarts versions for your MCU display
GOtG3 had my whole group of friends crying from beginning to end. Rare that a movie can affect people so drastically like that nowadays. It was a real triumph. Easily the best Marvel Movie since No Way Home. Gunn went out with a bang!
Same boat robo. Said: "I dont need these", saw the movie, then said: "Well shit...I need them all now..."
Yeah, I can't help it, I love those Guardians movies.
I haven't seen the movie yet, so I don't know how much I need this Groot, I just know that I do
Same, I haven't seen the movie but this Groot figure looks awesome 👍
He is groot
"I love you guys...."

Guardians 3is the one MCU film Id recommend seeing in theatres since Spider-Man No Way Home.
They should have done more since it's a deluxe figure at a deluxe price. I'm pretty sure we all would have been able to reenact another scene than the one with the wings.
"Groot, you know what to do with these..."
I do hope that Robo will end up reviewing the Gotg 3 wave.

It's starting now! Literally just got my groot today at Target for 25 and an Adam for 12!
They missed a opportunity with this Groot. They could have made his chest open up like it did in the movie.
I just saw this on clearance at target 😅
I was pretty much the same; pulling back on MCU figures, because I am so behind on them. Then the Guardians movie comes along and opens the F***ing door 😂
Great review as always! On your Star-lord figure, have you noticed the red paint on the shoulders scraping off when you move the arm up?
I literally just saw GOTG3 today. Was very satisfied. Also completed this Guardians wave a while ago. They actually look really good.
7:07 oh my lord that is a nice sound.
Do I need more Guardians? Hell yeah!!! Love the comic accurate suits that Star-Lord, Drax, Mantis, Nebula, and Rocket wear.
just kills me that he doesnt get his helmet to complete the look
@@ComicCrossing Star-Lord forgot to get his helmet because the Guardians were rushing to save Rocket. Pretty logical explanation
@@tylerlarson7263 doesnt mean I dont want a figure with the full outfit
I didn't get MCU figures until Black Panther II and I didn't get Groot, but I can't afford the Volume 3 figures. That's the long and short of it. I'm saving my MCU figure money for Marvels.
Very cool! May you please review star lord!?
I can’t wait to see your ninja scroll figures 😮
6:57 So what your saying is that you want to "spruce" him up a bit? 😂😅
I don't know. My Labrador is about 38" long and stands 29" tall. So he stands at my thigh, so Cosmos is just a little bit long.
I love the Marvel Legends Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3 Adult Groot and Baby Rocket Raccoon figures 😎🔥
I am Groot? I am Groot.

groot is caked up
I AM GLUTE.

Why not The High Evolutionary as the Build a Figure instead of Cosmo
The Guardians look nice together and that is a whole lot of wood to put into somebody mouth👀
I tend to skip MCU hero figures since there's so many versions of the same characters but I do love a good villain and man, I so hope we see an MCU High Evolutionary figure down the road, that guy was wonderfully hateable.
Was there a deal over Memorial Day weekend? I didn’t hear about anything
No, ended up being a sale on a few other lines, not Marvel or anything else I buy.
“Little down there.”
“Don’t put wood in your mouth!”
“Quit jerking on it.”
(Groot’s butt)
#phrasing!

Nope, there were rumors but they didn't pan out.
@@TheFwoosh to quote Miss Tammy WYNette (via SNL), “This is how rumors get started!”
They gave him Bayverse Optimus lips i'm sorry but that's just what I see with this Groot 😆
We all are aren't we
The timing of Robo posting this video and me getting groot while also getting him with the coupons from GameStop is really creeping me out 😂

Yo soy groot
What about Kaiju Groot? Lol
GOtG3 had my whole group of friends crying from beginning to end. Rare that a movie can affect people so drastically like that nowadays. It was a real triumph. Easily the best Marvel Movie since No Way Home. Gunn went out with a bang!
Spoiler: but the hole in the bottom of the head makes me think we may see another version of Groot…
You gotta be Fkg kidding me!
This was the most s*xual innuendo toy review yet...😆
In your endo. Giggity

Im early
Too clean, needs a wash is a very counter intuitive sentence.
But perfectly understandable within the context of the subject matter.
God you’re hilRious. 😂😂😂
Clearance buy one get one is what drug me to game stop. Got to dip my toes in the g.i. Joe classified
And a rogue for my X-men display ^_^
