The articulation makes sense when you realized that this type of armor utilized by the Space Marines slows them down to a walk. Space Marines are literally Walking Tanks and Terminators are the Heavy Tank versions.
skeleton dude on the throne is The Emperor of Mankind and the weapon I think is a storm bolter?
Correct.
Thank you!! 🙌
That is “ The Emperor”
Thank you!!! 🙌
I'd imagine the storm bolter is hollow plastic due to its design. Getting that double barrel looking nice out of a single plastic lump would have been really hard.
Very true! 🙌
0:55 - For the most part (there exist exceptions), this is, for example, common with Star Trek branded toys and other products across various manufacturers. ST's IP-owners strive to keep the branding and its visage unified where possible. For example, you get an action figure from Mego, a model kit of a starship from Revell, a playset from Playmobil, a 'real-sized' replica toy from Playmates, or a 'brick-build' construction set from BlueBrixx and all of these products shall now share the 'Star Trek Universe' template of a branding.
THE PLASHTIC!!!
ALOTTA PLASTIC!!!
@@RealPacPhotos SHO KEWL!
@@DCMultiCollector🤣😂
Finally a proper review for this.
I really appreciate that! Thank you!! 🙌
That reiver and terminator are actually scale accurate to each other
Are they really? That’s good to know, thank you for the info!! 🙌
Makes sense that the gun he came with is hollow. So that the figure can actually hold a pose with the gun with one hand.
Kind of what I thought too when I was reviewing this. So yeah that makes sense
Correct, thank god he isn't a big heavy lump, its very clever especially having the hollow gun so he can hold the gun with his elbow bent. He stands well because of the weight deduction, id be happy if they followed this idea with the normal space marines, the weight is there in the right parts.
I remember buying McFarlane figures for $6 in the 90s while video games were $50. Now figures are $50 while video games are $70. Insane that figures used to be 8x cheaper than games and now they’re almost the same price.
That is wild! I saw a post that showed a toys r us catalog and it’s crazy how much cheaper figures and consoles were back then. Seems like the games themselves kinda stayed at that $40-$60 price range lol. But I guess DLC for the games round them closer to $100
I wouldn't be surprised if the box redesign was a request from Games Workshop, just to keep everything in line with the brand
Yoooo that’s a very good point! Could very well be that! 🙌
I hope mcfarlane keep making warhammer stuff I love it I just got this he’s a chonky fella but I agree he felt kinda cheap considering the price especially compared to the other figs that are great I wasn’t mad about the size cus terminators are only slightly bigger than standard marines hope they do a chaos terminator!!
I’m on the same boat, I hope they do continue to make more Warhammer figures as well! And yeah the price of this is too high IMO, but if you can pick it up on sale, it’s a good buy.
It's kinda small for a megafig. I'll wait for a sale.
That Reiver is way too big. I was amazed when I got him that he was bigger than the Intercessors. The Phobos armor that Reivers wear is supposed to be relatively light, making them the smallest of Space Marines. But McFarlane made him almost as big as a Terminator!
I love your outlook and attitude about the lore! “Who is that guy” is such a great question, and that’s really how the obsession starts lol
Haha thanks! And yeah the interests into Warhammer 40K lore has certainly grown over the past few weeks of collecting these! 🤣
The person on the throne is the emperor of mankind
That's the emperor on the throne you heretic 😜
😂😂😂
Wow they made teh effort to print actual words on his leg armor. I tought it would be too small to read or some lorem ipsum nonsense.
Thanks for your review and honest feedback, the top torso being hollow I'll wait for price reduction. The same reason I passed on Omega Spawn, hollow plastic. Subbed
Thank you for checking out the video and I appreciate the sub!! 🙏 Yeah if this is on sale then yeah I recommend it but currently at $50, can’t honestly say the value is there.
The Emperor of Humanity is sitting on his trone
Thank you for the info! 🙌
I'm always surprised how much action figures care about the weight of the figure. I don't mind that it's hollow. Yes it might make it more brittle but we're grown ass adults, it's not like we're gonna bash our figures into each other like we did when we were kids.
Not so much “care about the weight” as it’s more so that the plastic is brittle. And we’re not exactly “bashing our figures together”. But for me, I like to do toy photography, and I’d like to pose the figures and try to push its limits to see how well the articulation works through toy photography. So that is where the concern for hollow plastic comes in. Thanks for checking out the video btw 🙌
That's the Emperor of Mankind sitting on the Golden Throne of Terra
Thank you!!! 🙌
“Who’s that sitting on the throne?” THAT Heretic, is the God Emperor of Mankind
Thank you!! 🙌
The gun he has is called a storm bolter
Thank you!!! 🙌
2:43 it’s called a stormbolter. A double barreled rapid fire gun
Thank you! I appreciate the info!! 🙌
He looks awesome, can't wait to add him to the collection
Sculpt wise, yeah this figure is pretty dope! 🙌
He's not the best but if your just doing a natural pose on a shelf he's pretty good his articulating his pretty good
I like customizing these, not a figure guy but am a Warhammer dude. Only thing is how hard it is to take these things apart
If it’s like other figures from the company I’d imagine it just requires some heat and you pop the joints off? But that’s cool that you customize these!
Thanks dude. It sure doesn't sound like a $80 figure (in Canada). Definite wait for sale.
No problem! But oh yeah, not for that price I don’t recommend it. It’s a nice figure just not at the price it’s at.
This should have been a deluxe rather than a mega fig. As much as I wanted a terminator ill wait until deep discount to a reasonable price or wait for a nice sexy chaos version. Up here in Canada land its 70$ and before taxes. I love 40k but thats way too damn much especially from the company that prided itself on value for money >_>
DANG! $70!?! Yeah if you can scoop this for $40 or even $30 then I’d recommend it! But that’s a good idea about it being a deluxe: more accessories, rather than a mega fig.
I saw this guy in the store and now I'm happy I got the Khorne Berzerker instead it's too bad the cheaped out on the plastic I probably won't be picking this guy up now
Its not cheap plastic, its actually nicely molded sturdy plastic, its just not thick solid plastic so the figure can bare the weight, since he is a big figure.
You pointed out the difference in plastic quality between this guy and the previous releases, but it looks like a side effect of that is that the blues on the two Ultramarines don’t even match!
Ahhh good call out!! Seems like the terminator has a tad bit darker blue compared to the regular ones!
Any idea if these are avaliable in their artists proof line?
Yes.
Yeah! 🙌
Just got a dispatch notice on this guy, now I'm nervous about the hollowness. I was expecting a hefty lump of plastic like their previous 40k mega figures.
Haha same here, but lemme know what you think of the figure! 🙌
Don't be hes a quality made figure. Hope you enjoyed your one as i did.
Huh, I thought McFarlane was done with Warhammer stuff.
Looks like they still got some more on the way!
I can still find the Orks for $10 in my country, and compared to this, they're masterpieces. For $50 price point, I think this figure is a slap in the face for all of us fans and I don't think we deserve this treatment.
That’s really cheap at $10! It’s around $20 here, but still a good price especially for a “megafig.” Have you army built a lot of them?
How did you get yours so early my dude?
I ordered off of BBTS, I think they started shipping out before the McFarlane Toys store website. I would check BBTS occasionally because it’ll go from out of stock to in stock 🙌
That plastic quality plus price point got me having doubts about my Amazon preorder 😵
I love customizing these mcfarlane figures because the cheaper price and the scale being mostly 1/12 scale accurate but a non brick-like terminator action figure for $50 is a bit of a turn-off.
Yeah, I have to be honest, the hollow plastic at the torso is a bit of a let down. Especially since they’ve been using heavier and more durable plastic on the regular ultramarines.
@@RealPacPhotos Yeah, they should've made everything solid and not hollow except for the storm bolter (The double barrel gun that the figure comes with) since it being hollow is a good choice to make it lighter and therefore easier for the figure to hold up in one hand.
Storm bolter
The guns called a storm bolter
Why is the box copied from joytoy? I thought mcfarlane was different box
I guess overall:
Design wise this beats the Joytoy
Built, Joytoy beats this
Idk, but someone on a previous comment mentioned that it could’ve been a mandate from Games Workshop to keep it in unison. Which tbh, I’m fine with. I gotta pickup a JoyToy Warhammer figure one of these days to compare!
It honestly feels lower quality than the first few McFarlane 40K waves and is far lighter than the other 40k mega figures heck it feels lighter than previous standard 40k figures. It almost feels like they are using a different lower quality plastic or they hollowed out parts of the figure to make it lighter to save money on shipping or maximize profits. it feels cheap and my honest first thought was "I paid $50 for this?". That feeling was certified when I started to test his joints and I noticed his torso and arms were extremely loose. I became annoyed because I thought I had a defective figure so I went straight to CZcams to see if this was my issue or if others had the same impression. Looks like I am not the only one who felt this way. Other Terminator Megafigs have the same issues as mine as I have seen on multiple channels this one included. This feels like the worst Megafig that Todd has done in my opinion. This figure feels cheap, comes with virtually no accessories, the joints are extremely loose (Power Fist my Ass it's more like bitch slap action we should have gotten some articulation on the fingers or hand), and the paint job is so simple a first year Warhammer tabletop player could do better. I have every figure from McFarlane's 40k line and I have collected quite a few figures/Megafigs from his DC Multiverse line and this is the first time I felt ripped off. Maybe if this was 30 dollars I'd be ok with the quality but for $50 I expect more. Considering we have received better figures than this for 20 dollars from McFarlane Toys you should probably feel the same in my opinion.
Its junk wait for sale and get 1 lol I hate Todd he always does this starts out great and then we’ll just gets greedy
+1 for the video, not the figure! Thanks!
Thank you so much! I appreciate it, that means a lot! 🙌
@@RealPacPhotos I sub😎
The plastic does feel cheap, but somehow I still give it a pass, I don’t really like much the price it’s not worth that much, but at least I’m happy we got some new figures, I guess I’m counting my blessings
Yeah that’s the thing - we’re still getting figured. Despite the price hike, it is nice that the line are getting new figures! Hopefully there will be more to come.
its the storm bolter
Thank you! 🙌
your welcome@@RealPacPhotos
