    Fun fact: This story was happening around the time when I was getting back into comics and started collecting again. I haven't kept up with most comics for a years, too much space and they got expensive to be buying monthly. But yeah, I loved this run. I remember it tying with X-Force and Deadpool being stuck in the future.

    • @UnparalleledUniverse
      @UnparalleledUniverse  Před 4 lety +2

      Same here! I was getting back into all of this stuff heavy when that comic was going. It was a really great run. I loved Cable jumping into the future and dealing with all kinda of different crazy shit.

      @@UnparalleledUniverse Yeah man, Messiah Complex was a fun story. I love that era of Cable, hell Cable and Deadpool is prob my fave run of those characters. I was buying trades and like diff 12 issues a week. It got way too crazy and I had to cut down to like 14 a month to like 5 a month. After that I just bought random trade paper backs. The only straight up comics I bought was this month was actually Spawn #296-301, which is funny cause after #200 the last Spawn issues I bought were #250 til 255 or 256. Thanks to the Spawn figure hype lol.

    I think what jumped out at me is the paint and sculpting. 2 things that we don't get for ML these days. Especially the paint. Most of the sculpts are recycled over and over again with unpainted add on pieces

    I think the 3.75” line was so underrated. Especially if your are into action figure photography the scale fits into to so many other lines so you can build a universe a lot easier than the 6” line

    @ExpectedTX27 Před 4 lety

    Great Review! This was the line that got me into seriously collecting action figures again. You could tell Dave Vonner and his crew at Hasbro when they were working on this line had a lot of passion not only for making the figures, but also for the comics as we got figures of characters in their current comic looks during the prime of this figure line (The Civil War era, the Dark Reign, and the Heroic Age). What’s crazy is that some of the figures from the Marvel Universe Line are still better than their ML counterparts like Cable and the Commander Steve Rogers, and that they completed teams with their accurate looks that Hasbro has yet to finish in ML like the Dark Avengers, a proper Illuminati during the Civil War era, West Coast Avengers, etc.

    The gun makes me think of Dethlok's and it makes me want to see this rendition of Cable based on that body. It's about the right size. I've never been super blown away by the recent Cable offerings but scaling this up could be a home run.
    Its always wild to look back at the rollercoaster universe was. Its what got me introduced to marvel figures when I bought an Iron Fist at a grocery store for $10. They were great and then man did they take a nose dive.

    I think the main problem with Legends now is that they are working on a ton of new figures at the same time.
    It seems like the team is burned out a little, not the same care and focus goes towards every single figure.

    Definitely a bad ass figure and probably one of if not the best that came from that line. Your right though bro, hasbro has been killing it in recent year's but the love may not be as strong as it once was and i think that was mostly due to dave vonner and him unfortunately getting laid off i believe. He was really all about the toy community i think plus he was one of the OG's from the toy biz team that went over to hasbro. I think this figure is just a good example of the love that was given to this line at the time. Anyways great review as usual bro.

    What's up there, man! How're you chilling! Anyway, I've some questions:
    1. Is it possible that Gamestop, including my local Gamestop in Battle Creek, has secretly got the McFarlane Toys Mortal Kombat 11 Spawn (Sword Version) restock before closing their stores? And for so, will Gamestop finally reopen their shops while keeping the Spawn figures a secret until the 'StayAtHome' is lifted?
    2. Will, there be a possibility of an MK11 Spawn figure that will come with a bunch of accessory such as sword, ax, mace, and pair of guns?
