Don't expect them to be that price forever dude. Plus we get more with Hasbro like weapons and stuff and two heads in a package. Something you don't get with McFarlane And the Page Punchers action figures are actually 25.00 too.
Really love it how this line has progressed in like 2-3 years. The Mcfarlane's Snyder cut didn't have that great likeness to the actors but in here the likeness of The Rock is really there! And it's also great if Mcfarlane isn't afraid to try other things like the hinges.
Hey Jason, great review as always. I did want to share a tip for the movie Dr. Fate. If you want the proportions to look better turn the ab section around. The lower torso was assembled backwards and the actual ab sculpt is on the back. Once you turn it around the figure looks so much better.
Thank you so much! He doesn't really have abs exactly, just a line down the middle, so it didn't even occur to me that it's his back. I switched it around like you said and yeah, it looked much better.
Good solution (if you have that cape figure) I hate they made them two different releases to get his hood. You know, Stealth Iron Man can really stand well for a guy without legs xD
I just ordered him. I’m excited to get him and have him fight my custom Action Comics #1000/Rebirth customized Superman (I had to do modifications that required an x-acto, Dremel, and pin vice, so he goes beyond “kitbash”). I also took the idea for the Hood cloak and will be dying it black when it arrives. Gotta cover up my Johnson.
The whole wave is cool. If you order the whole wave from McFarlane get a good deal. Sabak has symbols on the figure too. It looks like Chinese. Not sure about writing on black Adam’s suit. It must mean something.
I can't speak for other reviewers, but for me there are a few reasons. One, as much as I love figures, I am also incredibly interested in the business side of the industry. From that perspective, a figure's packaging serves a couple functions. One is to preserve and protect the item for transit from the factory to the store, but also to grab your attention away from all the other toys on the aisle. It's like curb appeal in real estate or a profile pic on a dating app. It conveys a lot about the brand and company. When done well, those packages become iconic. Just look at the fervor over Marvel Legends retro cards or the Star Wars vintage line. So many of us go nuts because of the powerful feelings those cards evoke. Good packaging today becomes tomorrow's nostalgia. And as we enter an age of windowless boxes, that sense of graphic design will be even more important in grabbing people. On that subject, lastly, I see all aspects of quality action figures as a form of art. The toy is poseable art, and the box is actual art. Commercial art, but art. Hope that gives you some insight into how I see toys. If it makes you feel better, if you extract the packaging section out of my videos, it's usually only 45 seconds unless there is something I feel needs to be addressed (or if I can get some jokes out of it).
Agreed. Honestly, I'd have paid any extra five bucks for a deluxe version that had the lightning AND a removable cloak and do the whole shebang in one go.
For some reason, all my Target Spider-Man preorders were cancelled and I had to reorder, so I am not sure how long of a delay that will be. But yes, that is my plan.
McFarlane is improving. We have to give them that. And the fact the price point remains the same unlike Marvel Legends is a plus.
Yes, overall I have been very happy with them lately.

@@Christian_Ada1 well hasbro has been raising prices everywhere for a over a year now so I think it’s just them

Yeah, I'm really happy with this one all around. It really makes me want them to go back and redo a few.
The quality of these figures are improving with every release. Hopefully they make an updated Peacemaker when season 2 releases.
That would be great. And BvS Batman and Superman.
John Cena pretty much said "where are we going now big brother?"
Lol the number of euphemisms in this video is more than in your entire video library
I really like how u do a bunch of size comparisons in ur videos pls keep it up that’s like a part of ur signature to me.
Thanks so much. It's definitely a big part of what I do, and I always will.

Guess it's their best release yet, well done 👏
For movies at least, absolutely!
“Yes, this was a real commercial.” Lol 😂 I always come back to this video for that intro.
Thanks lol def one of my favorite bits I've done
Good solution (if you have that cape figure) I hate they made them two different releases to get his hood.
You know, Stealth Iron Man can really stand well for a guy without legs xD
Truly, Stealthy is twice the man I am lol
Ik this is an older video but the Johnson commercial reference is priceless. Very after these messages lmao.
Do you mean the ones Nostalgia Critic does? If so yeah that's how I learned about Johnson boats lol
@@5POAFigureReviews Yessir! That’s exactly where I learned about the Johnson too. So informative those videos lol.
Thanks for headswap that's what I've been hoping to see.
You bet. Happy to help.
My only problem with the line is the 7 inch scale
This head could be used for a 7" Retaliation Roadblock custom. I just don't know what body to use.
That's a great idea!
Great intro dude,very funny,and that little kitbash was really cool
Thanks, Mason!
Grant "Good to his Mother" Gustin LMAO
I will never get tired of ribbing on Ezra and talking up Grant lol
The whole review shoulda been a musical. Great singing!
Thanks, that means a lot to me!
Black Adam was amazing I'll give it a 9/10 best movie I've seen this year
Yeah I really liked it too
Thanks for doing headswap. I would be able to see before purchasing it
You're welcome! Happy to help.
Great review as always Jason 💯
Thanks, Angelo!
@@5POAFigureReviews Np Jason 👍
Jolly good review. I too used that Legends cape but for Infected Shazam👍
Good idea! And thanks.
I want this figure
It's a good one!
8:58 Vadtoys use this one arms and head for his custom peace maker which honestly you should do
I can't recall because it's been a while, but I think I did swap their heads in my Suicide Squad review.
This is the review I’ve been waiting for
Happy to deliver!
Wow! Saw this at target I’m gonna get it! (When I can of course.)
Hope you like it when you do!
@@5POAFigureReviews ok!
Excited for film...but waiting to see if I like before getting the figure
Fair enough!
I just ordered him. I’m excited to get him and have him fight my custom Action Comics #1000/Rebirth customized Superman (I had to do modifications that required an x-acto, Dremel, and pin vice, so he goes beyond “kitbash”).
I also took the idea for the Hood cloak and will be dying it black when it arrives.
Gotta cover up my Johnson.
If you have an IG I'd love to see it! Your Superman, not your Johnson lol
Great review! Love what you did with the Hood's cape. Did you use any particular kind of black paint? Thanks
Thanks! I used black acrylic with a little gray dry brushing, but don't forget to seal it or it will crack like mine!
Great review, looks awesome with the painted cloak!
Thank you!
With superman vs black adam
Likeness for the peacemaker figure was horrible made me not buy it. I would of bough a wwe cena figure and switched the heads but that’s too much
Yeah, probably the worst likeness McFarlane has done of an action honestly.
Easily one of the best McFarlane figure!
It is really spectacular
The whole wave is cool. If you order the whole wave from McFarlane get a good deal. Sabak has symbols on the figure too. It looks like Chinese. Not sure about writing on black Adam’s suit. It must mean something.
Considering how fast everyone seems to get their preorders from McFarlane, I really should just start buying from him.
@@5POAFigureReviews the box it comes packed in is always pristine with every thing packed well to have all boxes in perfect condition.
I have never really understood why so much review time is put in the packaging.

was back and forth between this and cloaked. gonna go this because the cloaked version not having lightning just REALLY irks me. feels cheap :/
Agreed. Honestly, I'd have paid any extra five bucks for a deluxe version that had the lightning AND a removable cloak and do the whole shebang in one go.
You can start a stop motion series
I could always give it a shot. I don't know if I would be any good at it though.
what is that action figure with the red cloak? 😮
Marvel Legends The Hood
Anyways are you going tor eview the amazing fantasy spider man and renew your vows 2 pack with Spinneret next man?
For some reason, all my Target Spider-Man preorders were cancelled and I had to reorder, so I am not sure how long of a delay that will be. But yes, that is my plan.
@@5POAFigureReviews Good boy
Dwayne "the Rock" Dibley 😂
lol
Imaging if they gave him an extra Dwayne Johnson meme face
That would be awesome
Welp the figures are great but I can't say the same thing about the movie though😂
For what it was, I had fun watching it, but I can't pretend it was a masterpiece lol
Great figure, I would replace the head with a more comic accurate one. Page Punchers has a better Black Adam than this.
I like the details on the Page Punchers Black Adam, but not the proportions
why they change the ball joints on the hands :(
I'm not sure. Could just be trying something new. The hands on the Cloaked Black Adam are different, so maybe it was so you couldn't swap them?
Its to bad my black Adam has a black dot in his nose
On*
Ah man that sucks
First
Awesome!
