    I don't think it's fair to give this figure a 7/10 on appearance when you consider Darwin used up 80 percent of the company's budget. That was their one big deluxe release so of course everything else has to suffer for it.

    I think a diaphragm joint would have really suited Black Panther. I'm pretty sure he's almost as flexible as Spider-Man in some of his comic panels. I also would have liked to see a little color on him, such as the blueish purple and yellow eyes like he had in the Earth's Mightiest Heroes cartoon. Not sure if he ever looked like that in the comics, but dammit, that's a sick design!

  • @CyborgSodaCollects
    @CyborgSodaCollects Před rokem +18

    I used a black panel marker on his tabi boots and gloves...makes all the difference. When the silver catches the light it looks like a panther in the dark...I think it's excellent choice for the eyes.
    Seems like a T'challa headsculpt could've been added.

    The Christopher Priest era (black and gold) is my favorite costume because of how menacing it looks. Maybe we'll get some paint on these damn figures once they hit the $35 mark. Hell, at this point I'm surprised Hasbro hasn't introduced a seperate paint kit so we can "customize" our paintless figures. 🙃

    Hasbro gotta hit that 50% increase in profit over the next 3 years some way.
    Honestly I do like this figure. It feels like a representation of my iconic era of BP around civil war. 05-08, Earth's Mightiest Heroes, etc. But the ropes being painted a beige would have been an easy win. He's got everything I need and sometimes just a well executed base figure will make me happy, GotG Nova is still one of my favorites, but this is a $20 toy max. I'm only getting him and Namor. And I'll wait for Namor to hit the discount rack. Hasbro is gonna hit a death spiral. Fine try and cut costs and raise prices, I'll buy less. Theres like 3 figure this year I have any interest in. If it wasn't for the Pulse Iron Man, I'd have spent 0 dollars on Legends this year.

  • @PowerChordEPS
    @PowerChordEPS Před rokem +1

    My favorite BP design has to be the classic look that we kinda see here and the MCU design's not bad, which I may be biased as my best friend cosplays the MCU Black Panther.
    Glad to hear this figure's worth the hype, but I'll likely get him online or a specialty shop, with these new packages and price, I can't risk possibly getting a dud at retail. That Vulcan buck's gonna get some mileage and I'm here for it.

    My favorite black Panther look would be the one that’s used in the 90s Fantastic Four cartoon, which is what this one is close to.
    This figure could definitely be better, but for a character like Black Panther this figure gets the job done well so I’m not overly concerned about the lack of paint. I wish he had a unmasked head tho

    My favorite ML Black Panther is the Vintage line. I love the proportions and the build on that figure is what I'd imagine an African Hunter/Warrior who's moves mimick a panther would have. The Vulcan/Bucky cap mold I think is a little too much of a westernized build. Like an American Body Builder or Athlete. That being said this figure does look spectacular. But I will be holding off in hopes of a re-release that will include a Tchalla Headsculpt.

    Question for ya Anthony..pinless joints, do they have any other benefit besides being more visually appealing? With recent Marvel Legends figures it almost seems like joints are way tighter (which is good) and don't loosen much over time. Just curious if its just me or a benefit of no pins. Also, are you going to bother doing that butterfly mod you mentioned? Certainly tempting but also anxiety inducing after spending $24 on this guy.

    Loving your reviews man. Great knowledge of toy production and anatomy and I'm glad to see you will call out the things you don't like with an educated opinion. With that said, why give this Black Panther a 7 out of 10 when you said yourself it's mostly unpainted reuse? The figure does look good overall, but this feels like giving a passing grade to someone who put little effort into copying the majority of their test answers.
    Still an overall good review

  • @basicfacekick
    @basicfacekick Před rokem +1

    It's sad that we have waves and budgets and these things aren't being produced mostly out of love... it's just necessity at this point. They have to do the MCU figures so they have to throw in some comic characters to fill out the wave and push the BAF pieces. What little love there *is* coming out of the design team is tamped down and shaved off by cost cutting. Then you can't even get shading on the lines on the gloves, for example. Ugh.

  • @snakeshadowcollectibles6835

    I still need a comic version for Black Panther but I don't think that this will be the one. I'd like the black and gold version, but I don't have much hope in what Hasbro's doing with Legends nowadays. Kinda baffled that if feels like not so long ago I was pretty happy with them because of Iron Man Modular amor and I thought that it was a new era for Legends.

  • @JayWoods483
    @JayWoods483 Před rokem

    Favorite version of Black Panther is my current one, which doesn't cost close to $40. If they would release a Black Panther with a maskless T'Challa portrait would be sweet. Yet that would require paint, which this product Hasbro decided it didn't need. As you may remember, Hasbro use to make it easier for collectors to upgrade their existing characters because it was an improvement and it didn't cost a load of cash either. This isn't an improvement, it is just a different buck. Much more expensive.

  • @GameTime-yj6qv
    @GameTime-yj6qv Před rokem

    It's a really good figure with the potential to be great. But Hasbro usually goes the cheap route despite raising prices. If you fix the butterfly joints and color in the lines on the boots and gloves, its much better. But we shouldn't have to do that for the price point. It even sorely lacks accessories. At least give us an alternative unmasked headsculpt.

  • @jimwheeler9840
    @jimwheeler9840 Před rokem +1

    I was ecstatic with this figure for two reasons. Nice sculpt AND no shi**y paints apps like I battled with almost all of the Spider-Man figs recently. I hate just all molded plastic without paint, generally, but it was a relief to open this and not be staring at missing paint, smeared paint, splattered paint, overpaint, etc And it was fun to use a Gundam Marker to add a little darker gray into the sculpted lines for some depth.

    Black Panther is a personal favorite of mine. I especially loved his first appearance😂 in the MCU look as well.

They’ve done like two unique designs on him (barring the MCU figures) with some passable flares in the past few years. They’ve yet to top the original Toybiz version in my opinion. Thanks, as always, Anthony.

      As Anthony has mentioned there are ways they could improve things that wouldn't cost more, but that said it'd be really interesting to see: A. What the budget is for your average figure and B. What percent of that is the license fee. ML are over priced, that's for sure, but I wonder how much it'd actually change if you gave the license to a different company.
      Even with imports, the Marvel ones are noticeably more expensive than non-licensed items in those lines so I wonder how much that factors in.

    Not remotely worth 24.99. An unpainted figure with zero accessories. Not even alternate hands or head. And guess what, people will still buy it. And you guys complain about prices going up. It will be $30 next year because you guys keep buying this crap

    Heads too big, hands are oversized , pecks are really stretched down. Nah I still prefer the old bucky cap.

    Do you think the toybiz black panther aged well? Or do you prefer the hasbro offerings?

      It has its flaws but it's still the better overall figure imo

      @@AnthonysCustoms I agree. Toybiz and civil war are my two favorite panthers in marvel legends.
