i wish they would begin rereleasing these
Five points of articulation for about 12 buck. Best I can do.
Same here, got rid of all my 6” ML and Black Series due to space limitations. I’m a child of the 80’s so my first love was 3.75 anyway. I wonder if we could se a resurgence of the 3.75 Marvel Universe because of the crazy inflating prices of Legends. The Star Wars vintage collection was resurrected after a few years, hopefully the success of the Marvel retro line lets Hasbro know we are down for more 3.75”!
Loved these when they were out! I wish they’d do another good 3.75 line! Also great video! I don’t see a lot of people covering this figure line! ❤
I know! If too many people buy the new junk ones they'll know they don't have to make nice ones anymore. But maybe it'll see like a Star Wars vintage collection style come back at some point? And thank you for the kind words. I love these things. I'm trying to put more videos up all the time and get the few that I missed out on. 🍕🍕🤙
This is the BEST action figure line of ALL TIME!!!!!!!!!!! I have at least 300 figures and one day I will own all of them I am so glad to see someone is talking about them so underrated
Dude your collection is sick I didn't like the 3.7 line until Star Wars force awakens
I just saw those for the first time and it made so much sense to me. Fun while it lasted, anyway.
I passed on them before but now, I wish I had owned the classic characters, like Spider-Man, Hulk, etc. I only had Hercules and the other one that looked like Wolverine but it had a cape. I know DC made small super articulated figures like these, but I forgot exactly what that toy line was called.
I think it's more impressive the detail that they can pack into the smaller scale. The DC stuff was just called DC Universe. They weren't quite as good as the Marvel ones, but I have a few. There's just no room for all these giant ass modern figures! 🤙
I think that current DC line may be from Spinmaster.
With the release of the 4 inch Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3 figures, I hope they keep making 4 inch figures. Bring back the Marvel Universe/Infinite line and not the retro 5 point articulation b.s.
I know! The funny thing is while I've been considering a proper reply to your comment, something dark and disturbing occurred to me. Because Hasbro's a publicly traded company, and is obligated to increase profits for their shareholders every quarter or whatever, it's not like they can just spontaneously give us better quality at a decent price point having passed that stuff years ago. Maybe it really would be better with someone else holding the main 6-in license? And has broken try again in a few years? 🙃
@@toylips there is a new line from Epic for the Xmen '97 coming out. Same articulation as the GoG III ...so not bad...but def not MU 1/18 articulation. Prob worth a head swap ...😄
@@toylipsbut when lines like Halo and Fortnite come out at that scale with great articulation and design and pricing,Hasbro can't make excuses.how much of dave vonners work didn't hit shelves?
Very nice collection, congratulations!!!
I never got into ML, and after finding out about these I wish they'd been around when I was a kid! I keep telling people these would go great with GI JOE to build a big world to play with!
Beyond amazing collection! I love the Marvel Universe line. Wish I would of collected more of them back in the day.
Thanks for checking it out! I wish they had kept going with these. I don't know why I didn't see this comment before...
@@toylips np man, I'm currently collecting the new lines like epic heros for example. But there not as nice as the multiverse line of course but I find them pretty cool. Some of them anyway lol.
SUPER COOL!! THANK YOU!!!❤😊
Wished we got a few more 3.75 figures, missing some cornerstone characters like kingpin.
Anything is possible, if they see enough love online...
Hook up two versions of the same figure with different colored pants and a different head. Printing money!
I grew up with the 3.75 Marvel Universe line; so many fun memories. Marvel Legends are cool but they just don't spark that joy fully like the 3.75 line did.
Totally. That was my awakening to what action figures could be. Instead, they decided to go backwards, and start over in a bigger scale. Even they are afraid of a ceiling. How much longer does this go?! I'mma keep going as long as I can maintain a roof over my head and a few bucks to waste, from time to time. Thanks for being here 🤙
僕も3.75インチのフィギュアが大好きで
G.I.ジョーやマーベルのフィギュアを中心に沢山集めてます。
かなり購入してハズブロにお布施したんですが
こんなカタチでシリーズがほぼ収束状態になってしまったことは
3.75インチコレクターの自分としては
とても悲しいです。
いつかまた復活してくれる事を願っています。

I absolutely loved this line. I was right there with you where Legends were too space consuming (and a little too costly for an adolescent collector). I had a ton of these, and wish I didn't give up my collection when I moved out.
It's a part of life. I remember giving up all my old toy biz figures. But they went to a good place. The small scale are rad and still have so much potential if they would treat them like the Star Wars vintage collection stuff instead of whatever these weird limited little 4-inch figures are. Anyway, thanks for checking out the video!
I have almost all of the marvel universe line. It's nice to see someone still loves them as much as I do lol
Back at you! 🤙
I love to see you do more video's of these 3.75 marvel I love these more than the 6 inch I'm still missing alot of them in my collection I'm getting there i just ordered me a wolverine and war machine
Nice! I'm trying to get the last ones I need, too. Appreciate the support. I'm definitely working on more. I'm just also trying to get in on this new turtle stuff 😆🙏
Love your story bro keep collecting and doing the dang thing
Hell yeah, man! Thanks for the support! 🙌
My mans did a will Ferrell as robert Goulet joke....Subbed.
Quick! Staring contest me and you! Now!
Back when they came out cyclops looked sick but I never got him. About a year ago I started buying them. It started with the ones I thought look good and it just progress into getting a bunch of them. I go around vintage stores hunting them down and swaps. Ebay too. Currently looking for infinite series Maestro at a good price.
You're probably building a pretty decent collection at this point. I totally forgot about that maestro. He looks wicked. Now I need to track one down... Happy hunting!
Been saying for years this MU line overall was much better than what the ML would later produce, especially these days where it's clear they don't give a shit anymore.
Dude for real. Especially because the paint hits were so nice at a smaller scale. The bigger stuff is a bigger canvas, but they're milking it and us. Thanks for being here! 🤘
I was obsessed with these figures. It broke my heart when they discontinued them, but my wife threw a party
🤣🤣 I mean I feel your pain. I love these so much. And I'm stoked you stopped by. But your wife threw a party. That is 🤣
This was a good one.
Thanks for checking it out! 🎉
definitely curious to see how this one does. 🦎
Such a good line.
They will always be some of my personal favorites. Definitely more realistic to get vehicles in this scale.
Nice collection, i never got into the 3.75 inch, but ill be god-damned if they arent really nice looking
Right? What the hell, hasBRO?! Thanks for being here. 🙏
that's the Haslab Galactus right? He's perfect for 3.75 scale, could have hours of fun with this collection! wish this line wasn't discontinued, they would be great for customs.
My dude! I would swear I responded to this! This is the Marvel Universe Galactus. Lights and sounds! $50, in his day! And they are super solid. I'm hoping Hasbro gets to a point where they can make some figures that are enough to fit in with these.
Hey...you ever get into the Super Hero Showdown figures? About a year or so ago my son got Wolverine and Hulk for his birthday...we played the game and I was 3.75 hooked with him...LoL
Hope to be able to build up to your collection and add to the lineup w some customs
Ha! I love that story! In fact, I do have a small handful of those SHS figures. The old ToyBiz style beef jerky bodies. I love how detailed those are, but they're pretty fragile and so I kind of have them put up. But reading your comment, I pulled them out for another look. Thanks for checking it out, and for bringing me back. I hope you guys continue to enjoy your small scale adventures. 🤙🤙
@@toylips they are fragile...haha...picturing a leg lamp coming out the box right now...🤣
Love the SHSD lineup though and have been adding cards and stands for other figures we have (e.g. Professor X, Sabertooth, etc).
But yea...the SHSD figures def fragilay!
That's how I got into customizing actually: Beast went and had his thigh peg break off. So fix it dad here went into action. Haha! But I didn't want to pull what my Gramps did with my Thundercats Lyono (?) --> hot nail through both thighs and then bent up so there was a permanent "sword" sheathed on him 🤣 Wish I still had that figure to show my boy how it was done back in the day
I wish they still made these honestly I don't know why because this is one of my favorite lines to collect they haven't made any new ones and so long they mostly stopped on the 6in action figures how is they bring in the back again cuz it's still more characters they need to make in this line
For real. It was much more feasible for them to do like vehicles and playsets and stuff too because they didn't have to be like super 7 silly size.
They need to continue this line. They were just getting around to more deep cut characters.
Dude, I know! So many teams that were almost complete. It's like, don't jerk us around like that if you're not going to go all the way! Thanks for being here. 👊
@@toylips Not a problem. I think they could've done with less variants of the same character and like you said, focused on complete teams.
Isn't 3.75 sentry smaller than Hyperion?it's the re use on the Hulks that annoys me they could have mixed up the scale and headsculpts for the various Hulks,like savage hulk,prof,Joe fixit.ive had to bring some Norton hulk movie line into the collection for variety.
Dude you are right about Hyperion. His forearms and especially his legs are way bigger! I just didn't really display him because they crapped out on the Squadron Supreme. And more variety in the Hulks would be cool all day. But they are just doing the same thing with Legends. "Oh we've got to get our money's worth out of this Hulk body!" 😆
Thanks for stopping by man I've just been going through some stuff or I would have replied sooner.
@@toylips true with legends hulk,but at least they give a different head sculpt at the very least.that select hulk though is 🔥🔥🔥 I hear you on squadron supreme and other unfinished teams.would love Hasbro to go back to that line one more time give us some modern versions of the characters.
I ve got a Colossus and Juggernaut. Colossus is still carded I love em
I love what a hoss that tiny Juggernaut is! 👊
@@toylips I bought them at the famous Toys R Us in Times Square when I was on holiday from the UK. So they are even more nostalgic lol
The daredevil in marvel's greatest battles is the same as the daredevil in marvel infinite series ? THanks :)
Yes! They would also release the yellow costume on that same body and then the armored version closer to the end when they had mostly stripped down the articulation. 🤙
I remember my collection. Marvel legends growing up we're always hard to find, still are, and expensive so these were a good option. I loved using the Marvel legends I did have as bigger characters. I wish I still had them, I don't have room for a lot of ML I do have now. These were my start into customizing toys. I made a Spawn using Gladiator and Absorbing Man.
I know what you mean about the space. I'm always trying to get more creative, but a lot of these guys were living in a bin. The Halo stuff has me playing with them again.
Thanks for sharing, I feel like a lot of people didn't even know what these were. That spawn custom sounds dope 🤘probably using a leg from each?
I think this is the strategy Hasbro is using :
10-15 years of focusing 3.75 inch Marvel and Star Wars toys and let the market saturated > switch the focus to 6 inch for the next 10-15 years > repeat with improved technology
Then Hasbro can keep continue making toys forever.🤣
Seems legit 🤣
Those kenner toys are the worst how they dubbed mu and ran with kenner boggles my mind
For real
gostei da camiseta do wu tang haha
respect
how much did these retail for?
$6.49 usd
Jav clu.…. Infantry?
Ground pounders, my dude. We do the killing, and we do the dying.
I prefer a more peaceful existence now. Appreciate you checking out the video 🤙
Any chance you're selling bro? 😅
😆 fair question! I wanna be buried with these little guys, tho!
