- Hasbro have done a fantastic job at recreating some of Marvels most iconic moments in action figures but possibly no team or era of comic books is as iconic as the 92 X-Men!

In the comics Storm can shoot lightning from her hands. She can channel it from the atmosphere or shoot it from her hands. There are loads of instances when shes done it. Shes used lightning from her hands inside a building where there are no clouds or windows.
Granted I was probably nit picking a bit too much! :)
I like that part from the Wolverine and the X-men cartoon when storm shot lightning at a dude through a window while she was indoors. Man that was cool
This is right. Plus she’s an omega level mutant. She can manipulate the weather and can create it.
@@kimochino9047 what's an Omega level mutant? What's the significance?
"Gotta get tailored underwear too
Know what I'm saying?
Yea. Big ass" lmao
Some times I just randomly riff the stupidest things! :)
behaviour you're incredibly funny man lol
Storm is like Thor's she calls it from the sky but she can can pass through her body and nothing happens
90’s Jim lee era will forever be my fav because it’s what I grew up with but I have a feeling that the house of x /swords is going to be the futures greatest era
Absolutely. That’s my nostalgic childhood right there
i love hickman, but honestly, i have been really disappointed thus far with the new x-men/mutant kind run. i like dialog, but it seems like nothing is ever happening. the reason the Jim Lee era was so great was because every issue sentinels or some crazy bad guy were coming out of left field to stir trouble. you just dont get that anymore
I’ve been an X-Men fan since the early 80’s. This new stuff does not appeal to me at all. John Byrne/Chris Claremont is my favorite era forever.
My Mojo Wave Idea
1: Wolverine (Feral version)
2: Angel
3: Longshot
4: Mastermind
5: Quicksilver (Green Suit)
6: Thor/Rouge (from the What if Rogue possessed the power of Thor comic)
7: Cyclops (Phoenix 5 version)
That’s pretty great!!
@@Nathaniel_B400 yeah
@@fitzroy_4272 Mojo
My idea would be yours except replace Rogue and Cyclops with some classic villains like Toad or Avalanche, and if not those, then replace the Rogue with a Banshee, since we NEED a good Banshee
@@them. yeah my head wasn't clear while i was thinking of this wave
This is one of my favorite reviews, Dave! So much talked about and discussed. Died laughing at the accents and the 'ooops' moments throughout! This was truly fun to watch! You really do love these figures!
Hey thanks Deej. I had a lot of fun making that one
Another entertaining addition - you're youtube channel has been running back-to-back keeping me in good company whilst I decorate my living room - keep them coming my good man I'm learning a lot with plenty of giggles thrown in the mix👍🏻
Dude I hope the living room loos amazing!
The Jim Lee X-Men were actually my entrance into Legends - I jumped in around '17 or '18, and was like "I'll just get the Jim Lee X-Men!" Then I went down the rabbit hole, expanding to "I'll get the members of the X-Men teams at the time!" Then "I'll get X-Men in general!" Then "I'll just get the big teams!" and it just kept going on until I was getting everything I wanted
That story definitely sounds very familiar to my own!
X-Men are the only Marvel Legends that I actually collect.
There are plenty to keep you going!
I collect most of them because I’m doing gay crossover stuff first and series ninja turtle X-Men fantastic four if you watched the 2012 ninja turtle series it’s a continuation of that series but the X-Men avengers fantastic for Earth on and granted the avengers are cameo characters and will only up here in season finales and there will be two versions of the human torch my fan made version who is a x-Men member Who is leading Jean Grey but all the X-Men and fantastic four characters are teenagers they keep the teenage part of my ninja turtle cross of a series of thing so it’s kind of like the ultimate universe is ninja turtles were in the universe so Yeah
I just found your channel two days ago and I love it already.
Hey thanks so much Craig, welcome to the party!
Recently found the channel and I’m loving your content!
Hey welcome to the party pal! Thanks so much for checking out the channel. I will aspire to keep up the good work!
Great video. The Jim Lee era is my all time favorite of the X-men. I lived down the street from a comic book store when those books were coming out and have fond memories of that time.
Ah man I love those nostalgic memories. I remember going to the stall in the town hall every Saturday to buy my clone saga Spider-Man comics.
You got me amaze the whole video, you are a very likeable dude bro! Keep it up you know your characters enough and always have cool things to say about them unlike much reviewers
Thanks so much Chino. I love making these videos and I’m glad that shines through!
David that’s an amazing video The Jim Lee X Men are my favorite Marvel team. I've been collecting x Men action figures since 1994. I really enjoy your videos. You do a great job. Keep collecting. Greetings from Peru
Thanks so much for the encouragement Mark! I visited Peru a couple of years ago. Amazing experience and wonderful people!
Damn! Nice collection David. I have been looking for any of the classic X-Men figures as those are the costumes I instantly think about when I imagine them but they have been so hard to locate. Hopefully they do a re-run some time in the future.
Hey thanks morf. I have absolutely no doubt we’ll be seeing the classic x-men again soon. It’s only a matter of time until they’re re-released in another form!
This is so nice thanks for doing this video been expecting this stay safe 🤜🏻🤛🏻
Hey thanks brother. You too!
X-cellent video, David. The most favorite of my Marvel Legends....Spider-man and my 90's X-men.
90's is where the nostalgia lies!
Great video. Maybe your best. Love classic Xmen. Hope we get a new series with them. 👍
Hey thanks Marby. I look forward to getting even better from here on out!
90s cartoon eas the best.
The GREATEST X-Men era. Great video dude! I love every single one of those figures!
Hey thanks brother. I’ll do a Spidey one at some point!
@@DisplayingModelBehaviour Excellent, man! I can't wait that one! :D
Every Saturday morning @ 10:30 on fox! Came on after Spider-Man, Eek The Cat & tons of other great tools! Loved the 90s!
The best era!
Im not even an action figure collector but i grew up on the Jim Lee X-Men. The cartoon every saturday morning and the comics. My brothers and I had all the figures and comics and became pretty good little artists, drawing all our favorites. Thx for the blast from the past! Gambit was always my fav......and i had a crush on Psylocke hahahaha
Dude we definitely had similar 90’s childhoods. I mean c’mon, who didn’t have a crush on Psylocke? :)
Spider-man: “uh... p-power of web shooters! Get real... STICKY!”
And it’s Gambit 🤣
Ah man that takes me back! And yes, you're absolutely right!
I happy you made this video I’ve always been an X-men fan
Thanks Eli
It’s funny I was about to comment on the remember my name part but then you corrected yourself lol. Me and my cousin have a running joke with that line
It's a line that sticks with you!
Referencing pitch meeting is tight!😁
Do you collect other figure lines? I just found your channel about a month ago but you are now one of my favorite figures collecting channels on CZcams!
Hey Grouchy! 90% of my collection is Marvel Legends however I do also collect some NECA movie figures, animated Turtles, Mc Farlane Mortal Kombat and I have a couple of Hot Toys and a Streets of Rage Storm Collectibles figure. I love the Storm figures but they're so pricey!
Awesome video man! my complete 90's team is the pride of my collection, best looks for the team in my opinion
All the colours look so striking on the shelf!
Same here. That's the ONLY team I was dedicated to completing. I hate I missed out on Rogue the first. Even when the released her again last year, I STILL NEVER SAW HER IN STORES! If I don't find her this year, I probably sell what few I do have.
@@trence5 did you ever find your Rogue
For the Jean, Scott, and Logan 3 pack, I needed a Jim Lee cyclops, needed a second Yellow Wolverine for my Avengers display, and of course I needed a Jean Grey, so it worked out for me!
Perfect! So many teams there's never a wasted figure!
This vid helped alot I just started my x men shelf thanks
Forge made the Hover chair I believe .
I agree they should find a way to make those bands stay .
If they put them in the molds the tooling would cost more .
I first saw her when she debuted in X-Men Wolverine went to madripoor and Shinobi Had her and Wolverine and Jubilee fought the Mandarin
The Storm segment was hilarious, but true...
You can't deny it!
thats hilarious, i dont think ive ever dusted my figures, it adds charachter to them :D
Lol totally, i'll go with that! :)
I absolutely love this video! I share the same excitement for the Jim Lee era X-Men, mainly because the 90's series was my entry point into all things X-Men. I just got my Love Triangle 3pack and scored a Caliban wave Jubilee, so here I goooo!
27:17 Case in point regarding Jubilee's falling glasses :D
Thanks so much man. This is one of my favorite vids
Love this vid. Such a good point about Storm’s powers imagine a Deluxe figure of her with effects/ some sort of whirlwind stand. And Rogue’s voice, yes XD I think I remember reading that the actors were from Australia or something? Wherever it was they weren’t Southern haha.
Hey Spikey! So they were Australian possibly? That would certainly go a long way to explaining things! :) Also I would buy the heck out of a whirlwind Storm!
@@DisplayingModelBehaviour I was wrong it was Canadian but still 😅 haha we can only dream!
TIENES UNA IMPRESIONANTE COLECCIÓN BROTHER Y TU ESTILO DE PRESENTACION DE PERSONAJES ES EXELENTE.TE FELICITO.SALUDOS DESDE PUERTO RICO
Very Nice display, I love the X-Men from that era. I have some Marvel Legends but am little unsure if I should replace them with the Mafex X-Men. But that Psylocke doesn´t even look like Psylocke! I have an idea of replacing the head with the marvel legends head, or modify the lengh of the Select Psylocke.
I've seen a lot of folks have modded to Select Psylocke by shortening her legs. That seems to work well. Honestly I really like the Hasbro one.
Great video definitely the best team of marvel universe!!!
Obviously it's subjective but I absolutely have to agree!
Loved the cable forgetting his name bit (or someone else forgetting their name lol)
Of all the videos I’ve seen, this one is by far your funniest! #fuckinloveit 🤣
Hey thanks Terry. I'll use this one as a bench mark! :)
My fave era is when I started collecting x men during the siege perilous thing in Australia.
Ah yes I need to cover that.
@26:50 that beast i still havent gotten it yet cuz now days its so darn pricey its like $80 on ebay and amazon its more so im still stuck with my toybiz beast but its still holds but i still want the updated one...anyway i dig youre x-men collection. Youre collection all together is just awesome.
I got the grey beast cos it was only £8.30, lol, im a cheapskate. Thought about painting it but i like it grey
In the cartoon there is a episode where Forge is lead on a government team with strong guy and a few others I forget.
I remember that! :)
Classic all new all different X-men for me all the way great video though thanks Dave
Ah yeah i've been so tempted to start building that team!
Ice man is standing on the tip of an iceberg was a missed joke
Damn I was off my game!
@@DisplayingModelBehaviour O MY GOD YOU REPLIED THANK YOU 🙏
I want that ice man so much
He said Prof. X doesn't have a magical chair, in a medium with people with all sorts of magical powers...
Honestly I sometimes don't think he has a clue what he's talking about! :)
Great video
Thanks brother!
HOW DO YOU NOT HAVE MORE SUBSCRIBERS!!!
I KNOW RIGHT?! Tell your friends! :)
We desperately need a Banshee figure to really make the Jim Lee team pop!
Maybe 2021!
Great video. This is kind of off topic but I really like those flight stands. Where do you get them?
Thanks man. They are gundam stand son ebay
Great video! Is that the Neca building they're standing on?
It sure is!
Forge existed in the present of the X-Men show too, he was in the Iceman episode
Oh yes of course
Great vid as always! I would love to get a blue suit halo Arch Angel. I have the Deluxe and the Fall of Arch Angel 3-pack one, but that’s still the one I need, lol.
Amazing that Hasbro haven't put him out yet considering what easy money it would be. Give them time!
The name's Gambit remember it
I told the family that I have a buddy across the pond. If I ever get over there I'll pay you to give us a show a round for a day.
Storm is referred to as a weather WITCH in the series and she was worshipped in the comics as a god... so, yeah! She spoke that way to show her as majestic. This was a show of respect to the character that was then and now well regarded by black comic fans.
She can channel electricity because she can create the conditions that result in lighting and direct it after doing so. She can probably be affected by lightning and even the cold but it would take something like Thor to actually hurt her with it. Similar to how Cyclops is "supposed" to be immune to his own beams but that depends on who is writing.
Well they did get a Canadian to do a southern accent. lol But I also loved that voice acting.
Ah yes of course. Very good points my friend!
Must be the age difference...at 53, I grew up in the Byrne & Cockrum eras. Their art, combined with the stories Claremont was kicking out was what put XMen on the map. We were introduced to The Imperial Guard, Shiar, Alpha Flight, Kitty Pryde, Dazzler, Hellfire Club/Dark Phoenix, and Days of Future Past.
Lets not forget Storm, Colossus and Nightcrawler were introduced with GS 1.
So no, Jim Lee wasnt the greatest era.
Oh I can certainly appreciate that for many that run is untouchable!
In your opinion
The Wildman of Borneo ...
I think Jubilee hits the hardest for nostalgia because her origin story with the X-Men was in the first episode of the animated series.
Yeah that hits you right in the childhood!
Storm was considered a god among her people prior to joining in giant size X-men. IMO the grandiose was pretty comic accurate in the cartoon.
Ah thanks for the info. I’ll blame the comics! :)
I like the head switching for Rogue!
Yeah it works really well
Awesome video. What display (Flying) stands are you using?
Gundam stands from ebay
Yes it was Shi ar technology lilandra his lover gave it to him
Good stuff. I’m inspired. Rogue is from Mississippi btw.
That's right! I never would have got that!
to everyone wondering what that is around Cable's neck....
here it is

super secret neck thing....
it is
da da DAAAAAAA
just part of his tactical shirt. it actually IS just the collar to his shirt. hasbro must have used a pre existing buck, but felt that the collar on the shirt has to be modeled as opposed to just painted on. so they molded just a separate piece.
IT IS OK TO GLUE THAT PIECE, IT LITERALLY IS SUPPOSED TO BE THE COLLAR TO THE SHIRT HE IS WEARING
Man thank you so much for finally clearing that up for me! :)
@@DisplayingModelBehaviour hahaha no problem man. ive seen a many peoples asking that question. the secret lies in the 90s X-men cartoons 😉
I wanna mess with this
don't worry Dave...my collection has more dust then yours lol !...I just snagged Jubilee today for a decent price that did not need me to sell my house...eagerly waiting for her arrival.
The dust is a constant battle
In case you're wondering, Storm IS a god in her own way. Her people in Africa worshipped her as the goddess of the weather that they'd pray too. Storm allowed them to believe she was a goddess since 1. She could hide she was a mutant in plain sight and 2. She deeply cared about her people, and would protect them from invaders and manipulate the weather so food and crops could grow. So in the series, they adapted that into her personality. She's also extremely powerful as Xavier has classified her as an Omega Level Mutant (in other words, world ender). If you're an omega level mutant, you're basically a god as you can destroy the world single handedly. Some other omega level mutants are
Exodus (his telepathic abilities can destroy the earth)
Jubilee (her plasmoid power if fully used is the equivalent of 100+ atom bombs going off)
Iceman (can freeze the entire surface of the earth and cause another ice age)
Magneto (can manipulate the earths magnetic field, ripping the earth apart if he wanted to)
Black Bolt (if he speaks just a tiny whisper on earth, it'll destroy EVERYTHING from the power of his sonic vibrations, so he never speaks)
Scarlet Witch (her reality warping could completely destroy all of reality or permanently alter it)
Franklin Richards (omnipotence. The kid can do anything he wants. In another timeline he turned evil and destroyed all of reality with little effort)
Hey thanks for the history lesson. I didn't realise how many Omega level characters there are. Who knew Jubilee was so dangerous? :)
Mississippi!
Storm is a Goddess. She can absolutely use Lightning Winds Tornados and so on she manipulates it all. Rogue's Southern Bell accent is also spot on for Her lol. Also Nightcrawler is a homophobe 🤣 shouldn't be near Colosus. Poor guy is still reading from the Old Testament.
ok , i just want you to know i hate correcting you on Storm, but she is an Omega level mutant that she can generate and posses "excuse the spelling" lightning and ice and an atmospheric abilities , in many ways
Hey I'm always happy to be corrected. I'm no expert!
Nice!
Thanks!
Amazing collection 👍🤙
I don’t deny that statement. My other favorite is the Astonishing era. I haven’t read the house of x or New X-men stuff though
Jim Lee's Colossus: Same color scheme, his suit is pretty much exactly the same, kind of the same knee-high boots just all red, all gold/yellow belt and the belt buckle is a huge circular black X with red, instead of cuffs around his wrists he has red or red with yellow ridged(only on the cover of issue #1) gauntlets that cover the back of his hands then continue almost the entire length of his forearms. On a whole he's just a lot "chunkier!"
Chunkier is always better when it comes to action figures! Thanks for all the info!
Dave get that the keyboard air duster spray
I had the original Toy Biz 90’s Professor X as a kid. Thought it was odd a pacifist like Xavier had guns in the hidden arm rest compartments…
Agreed. I started with a Toybiz wolverine, telling myself I'll only collect X-Men. What a mistake that was..
Lol oh it's a slippery slope!
I costomized cyclops arms to be blue so he isn't wearing a jacket 😂
Nice custom!
Jim Lee made the '90s X-Men far more famous and beloved...by the way, Cyclops is always right.
That’s why he’s the leader!
Hey, great collection! Which website did you get the retro gambit from?
I'm pretty sure I picked him up from comics and cocktails.
Did you ever find your Gambit figure
Confirmed!!!... you're watching Ryan George.
Wow wow wow wow wow :)
Actually if you go back in to my archives there's a full on Haslab Sentinel Pitch Meeting you can enjoy!
@@DisplayingModelBehaviour wow wow wow wow is tight!!!..lol
Hey Dave any chance you can make an “Annihilators” team building video? I know we are still missing Qasar and Ikon but we already have most of them.
We'll be getting a Quasar soon anyways, so that's even more reason to do that
I'm not sure I have the figures to do that properly but a general cosmic display I'm sure I could manage!
I've seen people recommending the Avengers or cosmic stuff, but personally, since David has made it well known that he loves this era of X-Men, I'm personally gonna recommend X-Factor! I mean, we have the core members already (Havok, Polaris, Strong Guy, Multiple Man, Wolfsbane, Quicksilver, and Forge) and if that isn't enough, which based on the previous amount of people in groups in some other videos, it might be, but if it isn't, we also have Archangel, X-Factor Cyclops, Iceman who looks pretty similar in X-Factor as Jim Lee draws them besides Iceman being less spiky (even better if you have the retro version), and if you ignored the designs, you could throw in Jean (sad days for people who want Legends to make a non-uniform, unique costume human beast. Also, sad days for those who want another human, unique costume Angel). Plus, a smaller roster like this would be a nice bit of a break after this almost 40 minute long video.
K, I'm gonna be honest, I'm only writing this because I got the Strong Guy BAF from eBay and though of the idea off the top of my head. However, I think it's my only good impulsive idea. Anyways...
I think i'll do that!I've done X-Force so really it only makes sense to finish off the 90's Teams. Expect to se that video sooner than later!
Although now I need to get back to searching high and low for a reasonably prices Multiple man online! (And Wolsbane for that matter!)
That's not the Claremont/Cockrum/Byrne era.
Lol I’ll admit it’s all purely subjective! :)
It is a Magic Chair I heard this crap down the Magic School Bus and they made the chair from the parts
I got all those x-men figures
Then you've got a badass collection! :)
Plane Jane explains Jane foster in the mcu
My dad bought me the retro rouge for Christmas
That’s a first class Christmas present! :)
I see people saying they want a Mimic, and, like, I guess he'd be cool, but he isn't really essential, nor is he very popular. Here's my dream X-Men wave:
-Banshee
-Toad
-Avalanche
-Angel
-Mastermind
-Callisto since we have, like, no Morlock representation besides mohawk Storm, which, like, mohawk storm sucks
*BAF: Blob*
A lot of people would want Longshot and Mojo, but they could make that an extra big 2 pack - or, more likely for Hasbro and their greedier practices, they could turn Mojo into another BAF so people buy figures they don't want, and put Longshot in a 2 pack with some bad design for a character so that people buy a figure they don't want
That would be an amazing wave! Similarly I'm not really in to mimic. Also you totally nailed Hasbro's marketing practices!
We need an X- Babies wave to go with Mojo, Spiral, Longshot and Shatterstar.
It would be cool to have a wave where each figure comes with a different x-baby accessory.
@@DisplayingModelBehaviour you’re right. They’re too small to count as individual figures but each as an accessory would be great!
Well you are right its not a ''magical chair.''....its a '' magical '' mutant he could have been moving the thing with his powers....gosh, ....lol
But he doesn’t have telekinesis, it’s all lies I tell you!
Speaking on Archangel, I think he’s good, but the red is just painted on and he looks kind of cheap.
That random insertion of assassins creed music? Lol
Lol cos why not? :)
Ive got the black bikini storm from the two pack with Thunderbird and she is literally firing lightning from her fingertips, lol,looks great though,lol
To be fair that’s an awesome figure!
@@DisplayingModelBehaviour it does look good
super easy barely an inconvenience
I see where you got that from ;)
I did a fully Pitch Meeting parody (Steal) for the Haslab Sentinel months ago. That was a fun vid somewhere in the archieves!
So what the hell thing around his neck is a medic aid kit and the thing on his ear is a radio communicator and His Eye is a telekinetic powers
18:04 is that the Assassins Creed theme I hear? I’m also a fan!
Yeah buddy, great soundtrack!

Liefeld never had a single original thought in his pathetic head. :)
Yeah his creations don’t really hold up over time.
