Thank you a ton for doing us all the service of this review. I'm super glad I didn't get him. Though I was initially excited about the inclusion of this old fashioned bad guy, the lack of wings and complete screw job on the hands and lack of torso twist make this guy a for sure pass for me. Your reviews are always great. Cheers!
The problem with that is if they did include wings and a bow and quiver the price would probably have been higher since they don’t have any existing tooling needed to reuse for wings and the bow and quiver since the 12 Inch line never got Hawkeye or Wasp
I was able to get the shield on the arm by warming both glove pieces in water and popping them off. Then I put the larger loop over the forearm, popped the wrist on, put the smaller loop over the wrist and popped the fist back. Looks perfect as long as you aren't looking for the hand to be closed on the strap.
It'll be on clearance in walmart and targets by the end of the summer. They rerelease this with the wings with different green colors for a higher price
I'll eventually get this one down the line if it goes on sale the 12 inch line was good just no villains 1 iron man 2 captain America 3 Thor 4 daredevil 5 tiger stripe wolverine 6 MCU black panther 7 spiderman 8 black costume spiderman 9 Deadpool 10 x force Deadpool 11 weapon x Deadpool 12 fourteen inch hulk I think that's all 🤔
My same 12 inch Cap ended up in my kids toy chest and the last time I pulled him out of there, that same hand was missing. So weird! I feel like the Super Adaptoid is definitely overpriced. Maybe if it had the wings, bow/arrow/quiver, and a few other accessories the price would be a little more justifiable.
Been checking every day for a review, its been in my pile of loot for a week, so thanks, oddly i was expecting very low opinion in a review, so now I'm enthused. BBTS been getting a ton of stuff in earlier than expected so my unboxings are stacked very high, didn't know you lived in CA too, have a good vacation
I know Hasbro takes a lot of flack, but this is one that really warrants it. This is legitimately one of their worst offerings in all of Marvel Legends IMO. Reusing this old 12 inch Captain America figure is pretty much the absolute laziest route they could have taken. Those 12 Legends were awesome for what they were and enjoyed many of them, but they weren’t meant for this. And for a character that many people have needed and a first timer in the line, and for $70+ it’s not okay. And BTW, the original figures has interchangeable hands, but I guess that just too much to ask for these days 😒
If I was good at customizing, I'd pick him up for sure. I am absolutely not good at anything more than pop and swap though so for now I have to pass. If it goes on sale I'll pick him up though I think. Great review!
I agree on Hasbro being extremely lazy on this release, however one way to I guess work the shield on the left arm is remove the bigger strap when your going to place it on the arm and before you slide it in the arm , remove the fist and insert the smaller strap into the glove area and then re insert the fist. Holds it decently enough so it can also wield Mjolnir.
Yeah, I don't mind the reuse of a mold. It's smart on Hasbro's part since Super Adaptoid's had mostly that Cap look in the Silver Age books. Plus you get new stuff, not just a straight mold copy. You get new head sculpt, new forearm, new calf/leg w/booths, 2 GREAT accessories (Mjolnir and Cap Shield) BUT...the draw back again is NOT the reuse mold, it's missing Hawkeye's bow and quiver and of course Wasp's wings. All like you said. For $70, should've had those extra accessories.
At its price point, it's like. Do I get this or get a SHF/Mafex I've been eyeballing? I'm not attached to the character so it was easy to pass on. But then it was easy to pass on because I sure nothing interesting for its price point. Hasbro is really having a hard time making a product that looks like it's worth as much or more then it's MSRP(Looks like, doesn't matter if it cost them 10 cents to make).
It'll look much better with 1:18 Marvel Universe figures. The left hand really sucks though. I guess you can use Quake Hold to keep the shield on. I can make wings for it,bi suppose, but for the money, it REALLY should have the wings and alternate hands. It's kinda a shelf statue more than an "action" figure, but I still want it once the price becomes more reasonable.
Just got this on sale, 35%. Didn't realize just how lazy they were with this one. The figure can't even properly hold its own sheild. I feel bad for anyone that paid full price.
This figure should have more colors and better paints and more robot like rather than organic clothes I know this is somewhat a comic origin design but he look like fan cosplayer from a universe where green is the only colour
Just got it from BBTS for like $45. Even at that price it still feels like I paid a bit too much. Extra hands would've gone a long way, but the missing Hawkeye quiver and Wasp wings really make this a miss. Still, an imposing figure with 6" ML characters.
@@MCUcollector24 I have a question since you order that super adaptoid early what's the total of it because it's 71 bucks but since you got it early how much the whole plus shipping and tax how much is all that
Unless and until people start calling in to Hasbro, canceling and returning orders, they will not correct their incompetent and uncaring slop work. Use your voice as consumers. Boycott. Hasbro won't change until we make them change.
This shit is lazy I understand using the 12”figure they should use this Icon line for there cosmic figures like Stranger and Eternity living tribunal ,and yes your right he’s missing the Wasp wings, Hawkeye’s Bow and Arrow and Quiver, they should have giving him Iron man’s Gauntlets and boots and thrown in Black widow wrist blasters, Visions gem in the forehead, Black Panther claws on his gauntlets this is just terribly lazy
From what I've read it can become a perfect copy of someone and copy their powers. It's size is variable too, so it could be human sized or giant. A flaw is it turns green when it tries to copy multiple people and powers. I think it can be overloaded if it tries to copy more than a certain number, eight I think. The sculpt on the figure looks pretty good but the lack of hand options and hindered articulation are a turn off. Oh and the absurd price for an old mould, with some new bits.

Thanks
They should release a giant man in one of these releases so anyone can get one instead of doing a haslab
At that price it should have had a unique sculpt, wings and Hawkeye's quiver. Hasbro dropped the ball. Wouldn't even get this if it were half price.
The problem with that is if they did include wings and a bow and quiver the price would probably have been higher since they don’t have any existing tooling needed to reuse for wings and the bow and quiver since the 12 Inch line never got Hawkeye or Wasp
I hope Hasbro makes a 12' inch Sentinel.
If they did it probably wouldn’t be as impressive as their haslabs version and maybe some upset people because of it

So the gauntlets come off the wrist?
@@slumppa3034 yup in two pieces
It'll be on clearance in walmart and targets by the end of the summer. They rerelease this with the wings with different green colors for a higher price
A year after your comment these are at Ollie's for $20. For that price, I had to get one. ✌🏻
$70 is super pricey. Even with inflation, this has a higher price proportionally when compared to the price increase for regular legends.
I'll eventually get this one down the line if it goes on sale the 12 inch line was good just no villains 1 iron man 2 captain America 3 Thor 4 daredevil 5 tiger stripe wolverine 6 MCU black panther 7 spiderman 8 black costume spiderman 9 Deadpool 10 x force Deadpool 11 weapon x Deadpool 12 fourteen inch hulk I think that's all 🤔

I think the problem with the Legends 12" line, aside from the price, was its lack of villains.
I have all of them sealed... I waited thinking there’d be villains... still likem tho
Cool review. If Hasbro makes a classic comic accurate Super Adaptoid I’d buy that.

I feel like I’m the only person I know who’s getting it. Shipping from BBTS right now. I like it a lot, thanks for this review

U have to adapt to the price.
I would have gotten it this if they gave us
Wings, bow and quiver, and a hulk arm
Maybe on discount. It seems pretty lackluster only that it is big.
If I was good at customizing, I'd pick him up for sure. I am absolutely not good at anything more than pop and swap though so for now I have to pass. If it goes on sale I'll pick him up though I think. Great review!
I think I'll wait until I see him show up at Ollie's before I buy😊
you called it .. I seen like 10... someone bought all of them at ollies

Bravo hasbro another peg warmer or shelf in this case 😂👏
Least amount of effort = maximum profit $$$
- Hasbro
Just got this 5 min ago at ollies. Im in the parki glot. Pop the hand and the glove and pop the shield on and put glove and hand back on.
The boots are for Hawkeye.
Additionally, yeah, needed some interchangeable hands.
Probably best to display him with the shield on his back.
Yeah I kinda find it hard to put the shield on they should have made instruction menu so we can know how
It'll look much better with 1:18 Marvel Universe figures.
The left hand really sucks though. I guess you can use Quake Hold to keep the shield on.
I can make wings for it,bi suppose, but for the money, it REALLY should have the wings and alternate hands.
It's kinda a shelf statue more than an "action" figure, but I still want it once the price becomes more reasonable.
Pulse has got him for 38 so im actually considering it now
Just got this on sale, 35%. Didn't realize just how lazy they were with this one. The figure can't even properly hold its own sheild. I feel bad for anyone that paid full price.
Is the only for Hasbro pulse only
Just got one at Ollies for $20!!
I love mine tbh
Great review, but what a waste of plastic.
Damn, this is hot garbage. Can’t even defend them on this one. Thanks for your sacrifice.
This figure should have more colors and better paints and more robot like rather than organic clothes I know this is somewhat a comic origin design but he look like fan cosplayer from a universe where green is the only colour
PROS : Good size choice, Good Coloration, Classic Look.
CONS:Awkward shield set up 🤦♂️, No Iconic Open-Hand to swap 🤧, No Wingz, No Bow💩
Got it for $19 at Ollie's
Just got it from BBTS for like $45. Even at that price it still feels like I paid a bit too much. Extra hands would've gone a long way, but the missing Hawkeye quiver and Wasp wings really make this a miss. Still, an imposing figure with 6" ML characters.
Hell yeah where did you get it at do you order online
From Big Bad Toy Store
@@MCUcollector24 okay thank you so much
@@MCUcollector24 I have a question since you order that super adaptoid early what's the total of it because it's 71 bucks but since you got it early how much the whole plus shipping and tax how much is all that
For priority shipping it was $99
@@MCUcollector24 it's almost like a hundred area okay thank you so much about it because I was going about to buy it but thank you so much damn
wouldve been if they added more hands and accessories
Discounted on hasbro pulse for less than $30
Ollie's 19.99!

hasbro suppose to make Giant Man hank pym 12" not this adaptoid. it is going to sell more.

BBTS charges a flat fee of like 4 or 5 dollars, don't say they overcharge because you want quicker shipping. That's dishonest.
They charge a higher cost for their shipping than the standard cost direct from usps on priority and first-class so yes they overcharge on shipping.
And on top of that every business gets a discounted rate. Most places pass those savings into their customers. BBTS does not
Maybe if those gloves can come off you could then slide the shield further up then put the glove back on.
Great review. But its just a waste of money imo.
Best trash figure of 2023.
Who is here to defend hasblow?! Cause I'm not😂
Waaaay too expensive .
Thanks for the review now I won't buy it.
I hope you make your money back on this video…because this is not good.
I definitely won’t haha
I'll buy it from ya for $40.😉
Totally fail,
I will never buy this figure
Ollies got it for 20. Bet you buy it. 😂
Want this one. But not paying what hascrap thought it was worth 😛👎🪭
I hope they make a bunch of diferent Goliath using 12 inch figures
