This is one of my most anticipated figures. He looks fantastic! Great review
what a dream come true to finally have action figures from this epic film. Bring on all the othe characters including Larn & Nekron!!
Hi Aemon, I ordered it since August. Darkwolf rocked my childhood with an ax in the sides of Nekron's dogs! I've been waiting for this figure for decades. At first, I was a little surprised by the gauntlets, but I understand the choice was made in relation to the film poster. Tygra looks awesome! In any case thank you Aemon: I can't wait to receive my Darkwolf 🙏👍
I pre-ordered this IMMEDIATELY! Cannot wait!
Preordered this immediately when it went up on Frazetta Girls website! Excited to get this, thanks for sharing 👍🏼
Very good video. It was nice hearing the reasoning behind the design and engineering choices along with demonstrations on the figure's articulation and accessories. I'm glad I pre-ordered this guy. Cheers!
Really looking forward to this figure on my shelf. Had to preorder on Day 1. What comes next is looking good. Keep it up!!! ✌🏾➕✊🏾
I was gonna skip or at least wait on reviews. This is great! I'm in!
Nice! :)
Id love a death dealer. Though beautiful, the Mezco was a little too spendy. So id love a good alternative that would look good with the neca dnd line.
Great demo, appreciate the commentary about the decision making process and the looks vs. articulation cuts. I think he came out great, can't wait to get mine, thanks!
He was an instant purchase despite the premium price, but your demonstration has really reinforced my decision and I'm thinking I might need to pick up an extra one. Thank you for a very informative and charming presentation.
Ah thanks man! :)
Thank you for your great work bringing this awesome character to life. Looks awesome! I can’t wait for mine to arrive.
Shoulders are really interesting. Looking forward to get this in hand!
Any chance at some John Carter of Mars figures down the road maybe? 🙏
maybe :)
@@EamonodA _Dejah Thoris_ w/ translucent soft goods & Golden nipple covers! Use that same Teegra body, that slate female mold (on the table) looks razor sharp mate!

Looks terrific. I love the more natural movement of the shoulders. Great substitute for bicep swivels. I kind of wish he had double-jointed knees, but there’s always the sculpt break-up trade-off. Great overview video. I ordered mine the day it became available for pre-order. I can't wait to add him to the shelf. I'm really looking forward to more Frazetta-inspired figures from you folks in the future!
Awesome review 👍. The figure looks fantastic. Look forward to adding this figure to my collection.
love this demo, thank you so much and youve definitely sold me! looking forward to more in the line
Great Job man!! I can't wait for mine!!
Fantastic job! Missed the first pre-order but I bought one of the new batch in production. Can't wait to see more in the line.
Disagree on the no double jointed knees. They don't break up the sculpt that much more from the front. Glad everything comes off. I can switch to a more articulated body. Still really really looking forward to this. Ordered 2. One to keep as is and one to switch bodies. Great work on the sculpt! Also love your masterverse art!
Maybe use the mezco Conan body
@@alexthenorth2705 It's probably too small and too expensive. Was thinking about the vtoys or the gwtoys body
Can't wait to get my hands on to this. He looks fantastic!
I hope this sells successfully so you guys can keep going.
Us too!
Still wish he had double elbow and knee joints as well as waist articulation, but it still looks good. I'll be picking one up.
Thanx for the early peek! I already have him on order, this solidified it was a good move despite it being their first action figure. Cheers
Teegra is up next! :)
@@EamonodHow deep into the line are you guys going to go? I hope you guys do a Roleil and Otwa. For a creepy minor antagonist She was smoking hot.
Thanks for making this video. I was concerned about the articualtion. some neat engineering especially on the shoulders to get the range of movement. Look forward to getting mine in hand soon!
👏👏👏👏👏👏 looks fantastic I can’t wait to have him in hand and review him ❤❤ great job brother 🙌🙌🙌🙌
I will 100% buy that 2nd figure!!
This looks really good though, much improved over the earlier reveals.
It wasn't at Comic Con but thank you. :)
@@Eamonod Sorry, I saw it on a CZcams video. I wrongly assumed it was a comic con!
Thank you for making a darker skin tone look realistic and authentic. Definitely ordering this!
Wow great action figure. Love the sculpt . Perfect balance of sculpt, paint and articulation.
Pretty amazing this figure looks, nice review 👍💯.
I cant wait to have it on hand and im excited to see the next projects, super excited for this figure!!
OMG!!! I can't wait to get all three charterers and recreate the cover art.
Other than no double jointed elbows or knees to which is a personal preference of mine because of more dynamic posing ( but I do respect your reasoning behind not having it because of breakage of the sculpt), overall it's a great figure , I will be purchasing this figure and definitely will be doing an unboxing on my channel. I love the headsculpt and swappable jaw face plates along with the details on the body and wash over the belt details, the accessories are nice too any figure with plenty of accessories I'm all in. Thank you for sharing your video it was great and swayed me for purchasing and reviewing.
Coolness. Fire and Ice is so underrated!
Looks amazing !!!
Just ordered mine from Frazzetta. $14 cheaper than BBTS including shipping.
Its frikken cool man!! Well done!
Just saw the movie again recently, and then saw this. Needless to say instant preorder. Cant wait to see how Teegra comes out.
Even tho I’m big on double joints I gotta admit even without them this is pretty impressive figure, Body anatomy sculpt is perfection.
Glad you think so. :)
Looks amazing! I will def be purchasing! 😁 I also love the way the shoulder / bicep rotate. I feel that articulation & sculpt has a great balance!
Personally, I would have loved a little more articulation, just because I love really dynamic posing, but he doesn't really need to do extreme Spider-Man like posing 😅
Wow man I have him on preorder I’m gonna have to double up now. this guy is beautiful 🔥🔥
Love it congrats....awesom work...a pice of passion...hope to see and get more of this exquisite pices of art...👌👌👌👌👌
I pre ordered mine. I certainly hope they come out with more figures from the movie.
Cant wait for mine!
Looks Awsome!!!! Have to get this figure!
Cant wait for mine to arrive
Hi Aemon, thank you for doing this show, and I am still looking forward to Teegra and the Panther, along with Larn and Nekron, come on we know your working on them as you show us this, lol.
Can't wait to pair him up with my Mezco Conan.
Just got my notification it’s on its way!
I cant wait to get this in hand it looks absolutely amazing🤘🍻
Oh man, is that Teegra on the table?? Also I preordered Dark Wolf the very second I heard of it. This unboxing proves I made the right decision!
Looks killer! Can’t wait to get him in hand!
Can't wait, just looks beautiful.
Fantastic effort, excited to have this. I hope Teegra will have the same articulation scheme, its a huge disappointment to me when you can't have female characters posed as dynamically as the male characters.
Same! :)
Great review eamon
As A Kid In 1989, I member walking into A _.99 Cents Video_ store & grabbing that exact VHS / figure box cover. CHANGED MY LIFE!
> _Fire & Ice_ is A #MustWatch movie & its FREE on CZcams (cartoonmania channel). And BTW these Figures LOOK GREAT Mate! Perfect shelf mate's I can feature w/ my other 80's D&D (Neca) figs.
I Cant wait! And that slate Teegra mold looks incredible !!!
The double elbow and knee joints could be awesome, and pretty sure the head could go a little more backwards with little modifications . Overall a beautiful figure I would love to have 🙌🏻
Preordered. This looks fantastic! But you're killin' us with the Teegra tease! I checked Facebook, but didn't see any size comparisons. I'd love to check those out!
See my Facebook post from August 21st. :)
@@Eamonod There's something from the 20th and 22nd, but nothing on the 21st. Must be private?
Awesome, can't wait to get this.
Looking good, man! 🔥
Congratulations the buck turned out pretty good. The ax from the animation would have been nice, maybe Teegra can come packed with it since she didn't have many accessories. For female action figures I want it all, thigh swivel, ab crunch, double jointed knees and elbows, a head that can look both up and down who balances and stands well when posed. Because frankly female figures always suffer from lacking these things in almost every line. I'm sure the sculpt will satisfy the male gaze but the articulation has to satisfy us articulation snobs. Thanks so much, Frazetta was the greatest. ✌️🤘
Great video. I pre-ordered this on BBTS. There is always a choice between articulation and sculpt. If this is a statue, sculpt comes first. If this is an action figure, articulation comes first. I'm still going to get this figure, but I'm going to miss double-jointed knees and elbows. I like to pose my figures dynamicly, and this is a dynamic character. Companies like Mafex and S.H Figuarts have extreme articulation without their sculpts suffering. IMO, a premium price should bring premium articulation.
We feel there is a balance to be made especially on naked flesh figures who do not have armour or gear to hide the cuts. We are also a very small and new company and therefore do not have anywhere near the budget or facilites of Mafex and SH Figure Arts. Hot Toys to name one are a premium price and do not have premium articulation. eg. JL Aquaman.
Beautiful I can't wait to review this guy on my channel and see what it's about 🔥
Pre-ordered two from frazettagirls🔥🔥🔥 can't wait to get them here over in Germany 🤘
Aaaand thosee two figures in the back there ❤❤
Very Nice, Intensely Memorable Character, will be buying this from the girls🎉
Really great work. He looks fantastic. Did you guys ever consider his eyes for glow in the dark paint? Just curious.
Yes please........
Thank you again for this great review. Can't wait to receive mine too. I will then do a review on my Channel :) You did a great figure and i'm in love. I also got the Blu-Ray disk in french of course.
Formidable mon ami! :)
I love it brother!!!
This figure came out of nowhere but is rapidly becoming my most anticipated figure of the year 👏😎👍 So proud of this venture by the Frazetta Girls 🎉
Neca predators have mastered the art of beautiful looking double jointed elbows and knees.
NECA have a waaaay bigger budget than we do. Predators have textured skin and armor making the cuts less obvious. I also don’t like double jointed knees on small naked human flesh figures.
@@Eamonod plus, NECA released a bunch of Predators without double joints before they went back and reworked them...with a much larger budget.
Awesome!
Wow!!!!😃pre-order already!😄
Magnifique belle réussite j'espère qu'ils sortiront les autres perso 🙏👌
Merci! :)
very cool. would love to see you do a neanderthal for this line.
I can’t wait to review this figure
Really like what you did to his arm, I want to pre order it but unfortunately I can't find anyone offering it here in the Philippines. I also hope you make big bulky characters like ml ogre sized figs
Looks great! Can’t wait for mine to arrive! Curious what the final height is?
Super excited for this figure
Super Excited to get my dark wolf
Looks nice.
It looks really great and it's great to hear you're reasoning on articulaltion vs sculpt. Collectors are familiar with this argument from Super7, but also that it is a bit of a false dichotomy -- 2 handed axe holds (looks like he can do that), adults wanting to do dynamic and subtle posing like they attended a few life drawing classes is kind of normal these days! So I hope that stance doesn't backfire for this line, especially when the female figs come out and the elbows are limited 😬 there are ways to make a single knee go past 90, or a double knee avoid looking like a banana -- great for crouching and lunging. I didn't see how the ankle rockers are, but no doubt it's beautiful. The Super7 lane is limited in my view but I'm interested in this figure for sure!
See my instagram for some dynamic posing. These were my creative choices based on our limited budget. We are very small company making our first figure.
Looking good 😃
Love the shoulder rotation..would have been nice if he was more indian red than chocolate brown. Over all it has some good quality to the design and articulation 👍
Wait til you see him in have, he does have a reddish hue.
Please tell us more about the Darkwolf Previews Exclusive Action Figure coming out in September!
Keep a close on Previews magazine. :)
Dar Wolf is so damn cool bro!
awesome
Great video preordered mine the second it went up, one question though could you look into a Canadian retailer like maybe ecollectibles for example?
Ecollectibles have him for pre-order. $129.99 CAD
Awesome figure 🔥❤️💯😉👍
Great review. What's the background film?
Fire and Ice. :)
I hope you guys get to do Dark Crystal, Lost boys, LEGEND and the list goes on
We only do figures of IP's we own. :)
He looks utterly fantastic! I agree with pretty much all your articulation decisions. The shoulders are awesome, and look very durable which was a concern of mine with this style of joint. I also dislike bicep swivels as they often get in the way of actually moving the arm inwards to get a double handed pose with a sword.
I only wish some local store could import it to Mexico, as I simply cannot pay the outragious import taxes.
Thanks. What a good store in Mexico? Like one that would want to stock our figures?
@@Eamonod Nekonomicron! They are a great store, that's where I buy my mythic legions, as they are an authorized retailer. Thank you for replaying, I really want the figure but here the import taxes are 30% on any human-shaped action figures. It's pretty insane! Add to that the shipping and it's really hard to import a figure myself. Anyways, you guys outdid yourselves with this figure. The design and the sculpt are incredible! I love the chiseled muscled look, and the skin texture is just the cherry on top!
I will reach out to that store. :) @@SP8inc
Nice,congratulations
I am all in IF you guys make Larn. Wish you started with Larn actually :/
Well Teegra is next so…:)
Thank you. Definitely adding this to my collection as "Black Panther 1 Million B.C." This works, even the necklace is on point.
This looks so good. Is this available through any Canadian retailers?
No but FrazettaGirls ships worldwide as does Big Bad Toy Store. :)
@@Eamonod thanks Eamon. I did check out BBTS but with shipping and conversion the cost is $150 Canadian. That is very expensive for 1 figure. I was hoping to find a more affordable local option.
Did you try FrazettaGirls for $65? @@MatticusPrime1 What is best store in Canada that would carry these as I will hit them up. Same store that would sell Mythic Legions for example. :)
@@Eamonod Zedcollectibles is a reputable retailer in Canada that sells Mythic Legions
Can't wait 4this figure
It's cool that the boots, loincloth and chain can all be removed so easily, and that body sculpt and skin tone really stand out! Does that mean that this body sculpt will be used for other characters down the line, or will most figures have unique sculpts? And will there be different accessories sold separately or do you expect clothing will be swappable between figures? I hope there will be one or several different Conan at some point. The Mezco one is completely out of my price range.
All of the above is on the table. :)
@@Eamonod Cool, thank you! I hope the line takes off so you have the opportunity to release exactly what you want without compromises.
Do you know when this is shipping?
Now.
Will the cuffs (gauntlets) be the dark color in the final version like in the animation? Right now they blend in with the skin color.
I mention that very thing in the video. ;)
Great sculpt detail but where's the 32 points of articulation specified?
How is that inner shoulder movement being achieved, is it like an internal swivel/shift?
Yes.
