I love how Darwin has become the unofficial mascot of this channel lol
I want him just because of this channel
Yeah, definitely do the vid on pinless joints.
yeah do pins and pinless video
Please make the video about pinless joints, there are many people who condemn good figures just because they have pins, at the same time they glorify mediocre figures just because they're pinless
Pins are only condemned when they have mismatching colors
Who are you watching?
@@loveanicefigureI haven't seen any reviews using pinless joints as a defense, but I've seen it countless times in comments
@@chewymew Good point. Hadn't considered that.
I support this
Looks Like *PREMIUM HAPPY MEAL* Toy.
almost every ML figure does
That's actually a pretty good description. The shiny plastic certainly reminds me of a Happy Meal toy.
They have made it very easy to pick and choose
Almost megaman suit
I laugh everytime Anthony says "Show you my package"...lol.
For me the plastic making this version feel like a toy is what i wanted. It reminds me of the style of figure the secret wars version was. So collecting a Movie version, Cartoon version, Comic Version and a Retro Toy Version is something i like in different lines. Would it be better with better colors, yes and no i would perfer another release as a comic version. Transfromers will do a Toon and a toy version repaint so i wish Marvel would add more toy version recolors of their releases. The big boot version of Iron Man is my favorite suit and never though he would be in the line so very glad to get it in any colors bad or good.
I have the old Toybiz of this armor and yeah this guy looks good in terms of anatomy and the boot compromise. Pros of Toybiz tho is they got painted reds and yellow are golds so they actually look premium (altho from age, some of the red paints are turning pink now) I'd buy this guy definitely when it goes on sale as always with hasbro legends then paint them up to be the same as Toybiz.
There is just something about those funny as hell space man boots. That suit the Silver Centurion and Modular Armor are still my favorites.
Nice fair review. This is not his leanest armor so limited articulation was to be expected. I'm just glad it sizes properly with other ML figures now (the previous release was SO small).
I do wish they had gone with a darker red and gold, Iron Man is the Golden Avenger and in the context of the comics he’s supposed to be red and gold. That’s just a preference thing.
My favorite Iron Man armors are Model 1, Model 2, Model 4, Model 8, Model 9, and Model 13. And now I have them all 👍
Do a video on pin/pinless joints
If you were to be "bought out" by a retailer, Big Bad Toy Store is definitely one of the best ones. It's definitely my favorite way for getting figures too. And to see Anthony's Customs get sponsored by BBTS would be awesome if it ever happened.
This figure looks nice but I already own the previous version of this armor so I think I'm good for now but I'll probably upgrade if it goes down in price a little.
@@FlipFlab there's also the added benefit of $4 shipping no matter what. If I have to pay shipping I will always prefer $4 as apposed to like $12.
That's worth the slight upcharged they have on their website in my opinion.
How on earth did someone at Hasbro decide the "arc reactor" should be blue?? Where was that a thing?!?!
Ai Iron Man yes.
I’m sure the popularity of the MCU design is starting to bleed into other projects.
i’ve been really enjoying all the uploads lately, im a long time sub and i can see the difference in your content now vs last year even. you’re objectively the best reviewer on youtube imo 🙏🏻
thanks a lot. i appreciate it
The red definitely needs to be a shade darker with a metallic finish
Defo make a Pin video that’s a good discussion.
Don’t let anyone tell you you’ve been bought out. It’s thanks to sponsorships that you can make content and we can consume said content. Some people are just unbelievable when it comes to throwing shade.
This was one of my favorites from the wave. It’s fun to mess with. I switch the heads and hands with the Hasbro Pulse Exclusive Modular Iron Man, and trimmed a little of his boot for a tiny bit better range.
Would love a video of you talking about pinned VS Pinless.
I wish this was the same color as the modular Iron Man
I've got this figure in my pile of loot at BBTS - still looking forward to having it in hand.
Model 9 (aka "Neo-Classic Armor") was my most wanted Iron Man figure because it was featured in the 1991 trading cards. The 2017 figure had weird articulation and was a smaller scale, but at least it was the right colors (red and GOLD!). I'm not sure if I want to try painting this one, or waiting and hoping for another version with the proper colors.
I remember a custom Glenn Webb made for a previous version of this design with altered boots and a more consistent paint job. I'd probably get this but not without the same enthusiasm as Model 20 Iron Man. Maybe if the price drops
would love it if they did this one with the slightly thinner boots and gauntlets in a darker red and darker gold finish to more match the model 9 from the Avengers arcade game. This will work for now i rather like it...outside the brightness
Definitely do the pinless vs pinned joints video!
Yes, please do the vid on the pin joints.
Also, does anybody else try and accurately guess the ratings before he gives them, or just me? Now it’s like a little game I play in my head and I gotta say I have a pretty good streak going.
i must be pretty consistent for you to be able to guess
For me is probably a 7, because of the colour scheme, but I'm happy to have it, I always liked that model and the comic books attached. And it looks good with the mullet Tony Stark head. The neck in mine doesn't move either.
I’m glad they updated this figure. I’m hoping that they do a re-release with the more metallic gold and red like the 2013 figure. Aside from the modular suit and the Extremis, this one is my favorite from the comics.
This is one of my favorites, too. The update was sorely needed after the previous two undersized releases. There’s a rumor that they’re using this mold to make human-sized Sentinels based on the 90’s arcade game (the rock teased at the end of their last Marvel livestream is probably an accessory), so it seems reasonable that they’ll go for a metallic repaint of Iron Man to get even more money out of the mold
I really didn't care for pinless til I was marketed. However now I really don't care, and one other thing is that it's not as easy to customize or swap parts.
I've been thinking of it as "The Fisher-Price Iron Man" . I'd definitely like a repainted comic version.
This was made to be repainted into a Sentinel.
Was just about to comment that this would make a great sentinel body
I think a Sentinel's coming, Ryan Ting shared some teaser accessories which strongly indicate a Sentinel's on the way.
only the newest female molds have the pvc hips, maybe the vulcan mold does too, but pretty much everything else has hard plastic hips
I had no idea that Tony wore Mega Man boots for one of his armors.
I like the bulky limbs and angular chest design that this armor sport, so. I'd consider getting one if Mafex or Revoltech decided to give this design a shot.
I'd watch a pinless versus pinned joint video.
Something about Darwin wearing the armor totally weirded me out 😳
Good pic, tho 👏👏👏
Please do pin/pinless video. Ive been confused for the longest when you use the term.
I have to say i actually love the paint on this. I dont follow marvel but if i had endless money id definitely buy this. The paint reminds me of my brothers secret wars iron man(or was it toy biz?) from back in the day. Feels like a throwback
Do the pins/pinless video!
this would've looked way cooler with the colors they use on most of their Red/Gold Iron Men lately (e.g Modular Iron man) but I feel like *They Know* and will repaint this later.. I'll hold my horses and wait, I'm a fan of this design
This is one of the few instances where I actually don't mind the swirly plastic in the colors they chose, it just gives me 80s and 90s toy vibes, with that said the articulation is still pretty antiquated, I like the figure a lot, but Marvel Legends just aren't keeping up with their contemporaries, this figure is only as good as it is compared to other Marvel Legends, if this was the average instead of actually bad figures being more prevalent, I feel like the line would be doing a lot better. It cracks me up seeing Hasbro apologists and fanboys gassing up mediocre to bad figures like the new angel that just came out when there is so much better for around the same price point, like what Jada toys or Neca are doing. Hell, even though they put out a lot of mediocre and bad figures, the best figures from McFarlane's DC Multiverse are way better than the best Marvel Legends.
agreed
definitely pinless vs pinned joints video please
Like the new frame rate.
thanks
I'd prefer the version with slimmed down boots; also metallic red and yellow gold would make it look less cheap.
I do agree it needs a better articulation scheme.atbe.some relaxed hands too.
Please do the explanation video about pin and pinless joint
Go get one of the see through figures like Miles... its the same system just without the pins showing... They even have the same pin cut outs..
Dem big ol BOOTS
Pins are visible from every angle that isn’t straight on. Unless you are having all your figures straight on and displayed with no posing, pins are inferior. Imports are all pinless. They don’t have any complaints because it’s done well.
Hope you’d mention this on your pin vs pinless video.
I actually kind of like this one. It reminds me of the Iron Man from the old Captain America and the Avengers arcade game.
I wish BBTS would buy me. I’d take it in a heartbeat lol
lol
Yeah do the pinless joints video so you can refer to that from now on, you tend to repeat your points and annoyance about it a lot I don’t think a lot of people understand how they work and how they defer from pinned joints or the typical way imports do joints, Hasbro’s process is basically the same as what RG Gunpla frames were doing using injection moulding but it was more trouble than it was worth
if you watch all of my videos, youll hear the same thing multiples times but the videos have to be made to stand alone for people who dont watch every day. if something is relevant to a particular figure, i have to mention it regardless of how many other figure reiews ive mentioned it in recently.
When are you going to review the marvel legends movie carnage?
idk if i am. i dont collect movie figures
Alright
hard plastic hips on iron man figures are kinda a ticking time bomb, My iron man 2020 and a few others degraded and broke off at the swivle part much like the old Black knights and Serpent society figures did.
you should review revoltech endeavor!
Why couldn’t they make the reactor yellow in keeping with the source material.
Iron Man Iron Man model 9, based on the Iron Man Iron Man toy, based on the Iron Man cartoon, based on the Iron Man comics. Iron Man!
Imagine if this had the paint and plastic color of the 80 Years Iron Man.
Please do the pins/pinless video.
Nice figure and it is a kids toy 4 and up I don't find the colors bad it's not a hot toys 🧸 it's for fun I think it shows that Hasbro is really improving despite that trouble it has been having . It's a very accurate iron man to the 90s very nostalgic to me. The toy looks fine because it's why adults that grew up with this iron man are buying it for . It's just different for the whining Millinials .
the 4 and up thing is not the recommended audience. it is a limit on what age can handle the figure safely.
The package means kids 4 to up to adult collectors if you are still interested in playing with toys as a grown up without forgetting it's for fun. Kabish I know what the package says it's for kids 4. Too its 4 and up. Sir I know toys before you were born. @@AnthonysCustoms
@@AnthonysCustomssince the 70s we know what the box says is for kids 4 and up it's not what you think . It's the fact that counts . It's not a hot toy .
I love you Anthony 🤑
😳
Anthony, do you ever hear about BBTS having bad shipping? I’ve had it several times and some friends as well. Just wondering.
idk what you mean. they use fedex, ups, dhl, and usps to my knowledge.
@@AnthonysCustoms just seems to take much longer then amazon, target, etc that I’ve noticed. I haven’t used them a bunch, maybe 4 purchases total, but wondering if that’s normal.
Please do the pinless joint video.
Why in the world is the unibeam painted blue?
Hasbro likes to mess stuff up so they can sell it to you corrected later
Looks like his armor is made of candy
Nice review Anthony, thanks. Please do a pin vs pin-less joints video. The ignorant need to learn.
I’ll wait to see if it ends up in the bargain bin. My mantra for most ML releases for some time now.
@AnthonysCustoms have you seen the solo Batfleck release by mcfarlane? Its probably one of the very best figures todd has released.
Not a fan of batfleck, but that figure feels so good and articulate in hands, and it has adequate proportions for once
Just wanted to recommend you something nice
i couldnt get my preorder in before they sold out and havent seen one in the wild
@@AnthonysCustoms Damn. Thats a shame. I got mine from Ali and ordered 2nd one today))
@AnthonysCustoms FYI available on wallmart's website
iron man iron man model 9
I agree with the coloring, that cheap Lemon Head look made me totally pass on this one
Like this Marvel Levins 😉 but the style of the hands doesn‘t match the rest of the figure at all.
0:48 you want to show your what
this suit is like iron man and mega man did a dbz fusion lmao.
sponsored by BBTS
sarcasm
I think Hasbro's products are generally designed as kid's toys. People usually use this as a defense for Hasbro's shitty products, but I'm using for the opposite.
Be honest, genuinely honest with yourself. What is there to Marvel Legends that makes you want these? They're definitely not high end, they don't look like the characters most times, they're mostly the same bodies, what's there to like about these? The only thing us adult collectors enjoy about Marvel Legends is the character selection.
There are adult collectors out there who don't care about Marvel, so they're just going to stay away from Marvel Legends because there's nothing appealing about them from a collector's viewpoint. Hasbro's managed to tap into that market of adults who liked these characters as kids, and they're so attached that they're willing to defend these shitty products.
Unlike Jada, so many non Street Fighter fans bought Fei Long because how good of a figure it is, not because they had an emotional attachment that IP.
Darwin was the worst figure of that year 😂 hasbro stepped in it big time with that one 😂
Man, this looks like something made for a 5 year old.
Stop showing the mcdarlabe Batman and Captain America!!! ❤ your vids though.
I love this look, unfortunately the paint and plastic look like ass, the original paint on the first version blows this one away, so lame
Head is to small. Iron man helmet is size of Darwin head.
Look at the comics
It is a kid's toy. Hasbro is making these toys for kids. They don't care about the collectors who buy these. You complain about needed paint and stuff, but at the end of the day Hasbro is making them for the kids who love superheros and the moms who want to make their child happy end of story.
That's hilarious considering adults make up a vast majority of toy consumers now, kids don't really care as much and if they did, no way is a parent forking over $25 for this when they have cheaper figures actually made with kids in mind.
These aren't made for kids. Everything you said is wrong.
If that's the case. Why does Hasbro half ass their products for us collectors?? No paint, barely accessories, mediocre articulation? When you got companys like Jada giving you products worth your money. Why because they care about the collector. Hasbro is gonna Hasbro because they're making them for kids not us collectors.
@@PowerChordEPSIs that really true? Where does that statistic come from?
I’m sorry but that really doesn’t seem to be the case. Hasbro is definitely marketing this to both kids AND collectors.
At $25, Marvel Legends are NOT cheap. Hasbro Pulse, preorders, kickstarters, and deep cut characters show that they’re just as much trying to get die hard Marvel fans as much as kids. The issue comes with it being “for kids” is that we’re seeing ML being outdone by figures at a similar price point or being comparable to $10-12 prices. So as a collector and as a parent trying to get something worth their money it comes up lacking.
I despise this figure. Looks so cheap
