both companies are horrible but Marvel Legends CLEARS this battle considering that we don't get 7 Spider-Man figures per wave (although we usually get a Spider-Man themed wave)

It is a shame, cause The Punisher is a very interesting character, and a very different perspective of what a hero is, the definition of an anti- hero, and it's annoying they're trying to take that away, replacing it with " Hero that kills the irredeemable big bad"

I prefer ml in everyway

Jon IS the Punisher. Cope.

John Bernthal was born to play The Punisher.

At this point now that Disney owns marvel any dark character with a complex background is going to made as a parody…example being THE HULK, what the hell did they do to him?!? Soon daredevil will get the same treatment… look what they did to him in she hulk

Both HASBRO and TODD are cutting corners, no doubt, but HASBRO have outright been extracting the urine for longer, having the Marvel licence for, what, over ten years now. Childish looking sculpts, overall, with occasional flashes of better quality figures, wildly inflated prices for objectively sub-standard product, keeping the HASBROS giddy. The articulation looks fifteen/twenty years out of date, almost every unit is a reuse of a reuse, madly overpriced; that's the biggest toy company in America being, to put it politely, complacent. To not be so polite, they're overtly insulting, and squeezing their customers' wallets empty, putting out mostly infantile level product. Compare the entire HASBRO Marvel Legends line to, say, the old DC collectables, or even essentials, and the DC stuff still, in more cases than not, look better. The TODD stuff looking too real isn't really something I see as a legitimate complaint. Sure, not matching to the source material, which is a bug bear, is crappy, yet the sculpts are, at least, decent, even when they're a blatant mismatch to what many of the figures are supposed to represent. Yeah, TODD is losing people because of that. That's fair. The overall lack of accessories is another insult that almost ALL companies love to practice, as they are always looking to scam the customer, so as to dishonesty cream more profit, which ain't right. Never will be. Right now, I'm looking at the recent Mcfarlane BRAINIAC figure, with the tentacles, and my HASBRO Marvel Legends IRON MAN ENDGAME figure. No way would that IRON MAN figure ever top a list of best to worst against the BRAINIAC. Marvel Legends look cheap, even the best of them, and generally the lack of a good sculpt, and painting on detail which could have been actually molded, is a crime, a cheapness, that has entirely prevented me from buying ANY of the HASBRO stuff for years now, and I say that as a massive Marvel fan boy. I go to SELECT, as default these days, for my Marvel fix, and SELECT hardly put out anything. Sorry, man, but I can't not comment on a video where HASBRO, EVER, wins out over TODD. That's literally comparing a child's toy line to an adult's line, and giving the win to the child's toy line, which is barely a level above being a happy meal toy. Mcfarlane has a lot of work to do, which is a problem which ought not exist, and the line is far, FAR from where it should be....but, at least the plastic quality is better, and you could rarely ever confuse a Mcfarlane collectable with a Happy Meal cash grab. That Sonic Figure is all kinds of awesome, btw, to end on a happy note, so KUDOS! Also....the JADA stuff is on a roll. Nice vid, and automatic follow. Keep geeking, matey.

You forgot about the punisher warzone movie I want your opinion on it

Son when are you getting a job

Marvel Legends

Tbf, the lower ab crunch has been the best thing ML has done since butterfly joints, and those were like decade old (excluding all other toy company). It would be best to upgrade the Storm Collectibles lower half, but knowing hasbro, maybe in 5+ more years. Hopefully 🙏🏼

Nice comparisons! But it's almost like comparing apples and oranges, if mcfarlane stops his ego and goes 6in scale, I would definitely start collecting DC figs.

The venn diagram of people who hate the Punisher and people who think the cop who shot Ma'Khia Bryant should have "de-escalated" with her mid-stab is a circle.

Punisher War Zone??? also Dolph Lundgren did a version in 1989

While I do collect McFarlane action figures I prefer way more marvel legends because you’ll get different figures per month. Where with McFarlane there’s about 3 to 4 to 5 Batman action figures per month and yes, while Marvel legends does have their wolverine and Spider-Man figures that they give you won’t get 4 to 5 Wolverines or 4 to 5 Spider-Man figures per month. You’ll probably get it yearly but not per month like the way McFarland does it. Plus, it took nearly 5 years to get a classic wonder woman action figure from McFarlane ? Plus McFarlane is starting to suffer breakage on their figures just coming out of the package go research the flash figure that he recently released I’ve been getting post after post on Reddit of buyers complaining about breakage that doesn’t make him look good Nah sorry I’ll stick with more of legends and I’ve been with them for 20 years. I love Hasbro

Mcfarlane figures are cheap trash for the most part, that's coming from a bigger DC fanboy than I am with marvel. I still respect people who collect them though as I do see the appeal of having that large of a dc figure library. Marvel legends are in the most common scale, are much more proportionate, and have consistent scale in comparison. I will give credit where credit is due, they have made some improvements but for a modern toy company and THE MAIN line for DC toys their work is just unacceptable. I will say however they are amazing at big figs and I like to incorporate them into my Mezco DC collection.

Vietnam how old is The punisher.

I don't think I could blame them if they did hate him, he's not really that interesting of a character, at the end of the day. I heard somewhere that Stan Lee didn't like him because of just how family unfriendly he is. To me he always seemed like the type of character that adolescents think is really grown up, because they see anything that's "extremely adult" as though it's culturally "mature." In reality the things that prevent that maturity from being a core part of his character is the space he occupies with other Marvel characters like Spider-Man. It's not that he's a family unfriendly character surrounded by family friendly characters. He's a family unfriendly character who by association faces family friendly consequences. Joker will never stay in prison? Neither will Frank Castle. Because they are both mainline comic book characters. Did he _accidentally_ kill innocents? Frank would never _(accidentally)_ do that. (Because that's how accidents work.) Surprise! He was set up! Aren't you surprised guys? It's baby stuff.

This video is wild. You literally criticize Mcfarlane for using the Knightfall body mold too many times when Hasbro has used the Bucky Cap & Sunfire body molds for YEARS!!!! Let's even bring up the reuse for female characters. At least with Mcfarlane you get more unique sculpts with more details & it's cheaper. With Hasbro, you're paying for the same body mold with a different head & paint job.

I love Thomas Jane and Jon bernthal

Honestly both marvel Legends and McFarland has figures are very faithful to comic books and they both have figures that are not and that are poorly put together . I have McFarlane figures that are as faithful if not more as the marvel Legends figures you've shown here for example the White Knight Batman and the death metal Batman.

He is a deeply misunderstood character. Fans and critics think he is just a violent as fuck vigilante. That's the surface level but what's more interesting is that he legitimately loves violence and is unable to stop. It's not that society failed so badly and he does what has to be done. Maybe he tells himself that sometimes. The dude is broken and loves violence. His redeeming quality is that he knows that he shouldn't hurt innocent people so he targets the worst of the worst. Not for justice but to get his fix. Dude is a violence junkie and that is actually a really interesting thing to explore. He isn't supposed to be aspirational. Just fun to watch.

This all just sounds like a reason to kiss Hasbro's ass. And hate on Todd at the same time too

I love Bernthal as the Punisher, but the way "new" Marvel is going with storytelling is so sad. They try to make people hate stuff from the dark era and make everything PG. It's like they don't know how to make a decent story anymore. Idk what happened, ask Spider-Man fans about Paul, or how Carol Denver is the all time Mary Sue. Or wtf the All New Avengers was. It's not just comics for a different audience. It feels like its comics for an audience that doesn't exist. Marvels holds onto the MCU for survivals and this is also going down in the same path. I guess Marvel Rivals is their new money pig or something.

I understand Bernthal may not have been the most comic accurate representation, but he’s still my favorite. Sure he was loud while fighting, but I think he captured a quiet and reserved aspect too

Leave the Punisher tale alone.

The Punisher was awesome! Go j Berenthal.

You're mixing Punisher Max with 616. In the mainstream universe, Punisher does what he does to avenge his family, the problem is he's gone too far and blurs the line between doing it for fun and trying to kill bad guys. However, since Punisher Max has become more popular in the mainstream universe people have been trying to turn Frank into some psychopath. Before Garth Einnis this was not the case, but it was to an extent.

Marvel Legends easily

3:07 Ykw else is massive? im not continuing this joke

Fondjoy > Mcfarlane

When it comes to DC figures, you can't go wrong with MEZCO and mafex. When it comes to Marvel figures, marvel legends, mezco, mafex, ect.

Mcfarlane has some ugly headsculps ive ever seen and can barely stand by themselves , ive paid $100 for mafex just to not but mcfarlane

In my opinion marvel legends definitely won! The poses that they can do is amazing! The details are also great! I love McFarlane toys but hasbro is just better!

The Renew Your Vows Spider-Man has a HUGE ab crunch very similar to Wolverine’s

bro the knightfall batman is comic book accurate, he broke his back in that series so why would his articulation be good?😂😭

Not surprising that the McFarlane are all Batman. Its like 1/3 of all his figures are Batman. I dont even feel like I'm exaggerating.

Just found your channel your videos are really good even your fitness one on that one guy ima watch it later you should invest more time into editing and I think your set for a good ass RUclips channel Man keep on going

You're using the wrong Batman for the Knightfall comparison when it comes to the art. You're using the art made for the style guide in the 80's by José Luis García-López. That artists didn't work on the Knightfall run in the 90's. The page you used was art by Jim Aparo; the artist it should more properly be compared to.

Articulation on McFarlane is terrible. The nappy def has to go and they always make the legs way too long. Making pose ability terrible. I've collected both and I've found Marvel Legends to come out on top

I like both but i prefer mcfarlane, He's been getting better with the cloth capes, joints are slowly improving and I just like the feel of the plastic better Most of the ML feels so cheap in hand with gummie joints.

Marvel Legends are overpriced action figures that look like cheap children's toys. I hate those ugly gappy thighs to the moon and back lol. They've been in business for years but their products' quality just keeps on declining (just like their fanbase). Meanwhile, Mcfarlane keeps on improving their QC and designs. Not to mention the growing collectors. P.S. The diaper works fine. Would choose it any day that ML's loose ugly thighs.

First let me start off saying, thank you for the video, not everyone can do this, have the patience or articulation to do stuff like this. I collect both, I have way more marvel and dc figs, but it’s not a fair fight when u pick arguably 2-3 of the best marvel figures and 1 of the DC. Batman has a lot of reuse… way too much, but how many DC figs have original sculpt a lot more than Marvel. Marvel has pinless arms and legs but they still produce figs with pins. How many Spider-Man figures can’t do splits, all of MsFarlanes can, u didn’t show that. McFarlane uses double ball in the neck/head and torso , so how does marvel win articulation? For me at a minimum it’s 2-2 and then a 5th category to break the tie IMO Marvel would probably take any 5th category because it’s just a better IP. McFarlane has his hands into too many things. If he focuses solely on DC, it would be way better and have tons more non Batman or bat family figures.

No lies were told in this video, and yet I appreciated the constant reminders that, there were in fact ... no lies told.

W for the Sonic 3 figures!

My problem with Mcfarlane isnt so much the figures, its the company itself, they acquire the license's for so many ip's with so many characters and will make like 5 total so they can make more batman

I slacked off a lot on legends in favor of McFarlane stuff. They have a better scale that goes with more of my collection (Neca, Diamond select, and masterverse), better detailing with sculpts and textures, and better more aesthetically pleasing articulation. I also think it’s weird when people hate on the McFarlane diaper piece when marvel legends should use that. I’ve gotten so many figures from legends lately that can barely kick forward and can’t kick back at all for that piece being hard plastic. I think even joes use that diaper kinda piece if I’m not mistaken. I also think it’s double standard with the ball jointed diaphragms on legends. A lot won’t move up or down and barely side to side like on Wolfsbane, hydra cap, blood storm, hallows eve, astonishing wolverine, and numerous others. A lot of legends have the same, if not worse articulation than a McFarlane figure.

Lmao, Bro was hating hard on my favorite Batman. Pink Gloves FTW. Lol
