Marvel made the deal with ToyBiz, around 1990. It was Kenner, I believe, or Mattel, that did the 80s Secret Wars toys.
Ah you’re right. Thanks!
@@DisplayingModelBehaviour Welcome. :D
Great video Dave! I really enjoy your channel. It feels like I am hanging out with a mate as he talks about toys. I love how your vids aren't overly scripted or over produced. They feel raw and authentic. You have a good knowledge of the characters and different stories/comics and I really like your enthusiasm!
Hey thanks man. No danger of this ever being over produced!
I just realized the new doc ock was the secret wars doc ock. How awesome is that?! Great job Davud, as usual. We will miss these long breakdowns while you are in studies.
Yeah he’s perfect for classic Ock!
@@DisplayingModelBehaviour wait... new doc ock?
@@omarelsayed7057 not new. Just most recent. From about 4 years ago!
behaviour oh. That makes more sense
Mr. Behavior, I've really been enjoying your videos so I'm subscribing now. Secret Wars was my introduction to Marvel Comics, Amazing Friends not withstanding. It was great to get the rundown on everybody in such a hurry, you know, here's all the characters and each one gets to do something both character-appropriate and also awesome. It made me a lifelong fan.
Hey welcome to the party pal! :)
Another great job on storytelling Dave. I know I'm late to this party, but better late than never. I have this collection of this story arc. One of my favorite arcs. Again great job!👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍
I haven't seen that commercial since I was a kid. The little commercial clip alone made watching this completely worth it. So many memories came flooding back. I believe the original Secret Wars figures were the first action figures I ever owned along with Star Wars of course. I still wish I had the degree of imagination I had back then. It's most unfortunate playing with action figures that way will never be again. It's just a different type of "play" now. I absolutely love the X-Men, but still one of my favorite parts in the story is when Spider-Man picks them apart. Such ridiculousness.
I love that kind of nostalgia!
Great video Dave! Been waiting for this one. I’ve been building a Secret Wars display in my man cave, using the comics I’ve had since the 80’s, and the original Mattel figures. Recently I’ve wanted to supplement the display using my Marvel Legends figures, and this video is perfect timing!
Go lad i in could help dude!
Great video
It was my Saturday afternoon movie
Time well spent!
Would be awesome to see a huge Secret Wars wave....to me at least. We have many already that dropped the last couple years. But a new Wrecking Crew, Wasp, She-Hulk, Storm...etc...just to name a few would be awesome!
@15:00. Magneto to his people was always seen as a hero. They wore “magneto was right” shirts (later to be ripped off by MCU thanos)
Magneto with all his murder still not as bad as the harm done to mutants by humans.
Parallels so many civil rights themes today
October 1984. Im 12 and I walk into a comic shop and pick up Secret Wars no. 6, along with maybe 8 other Marvel titles. Thus my comic book obsession begins for the next 3 years I'm all in. Then prices go from 75 cents to 1.25 I think, and I'm done. What a great time. Thanks for the video!
Man what a great time to be alive!
Thanks Dave! Great retelling of the story! Seriously thinking of taking a group of my figures and actually making a 'versus' display for Secret Wars. That will be fun to make!
Do it dude. Such a diverse bunch!
So basically Marvel Hunger Games...
shut up and take my money
Read Avengers Arena. It’s totally Hunger games!
LOVE SECRET WARS! Thanks for the refresher DAVE!
My pleasure dude!
Great stuff!Watched it at 1.75 speed,it was awesome!
Lol thanks man. I don't blame you for speeding things up, I tend to waffle! :)
Excellent video, David. I really like the As told by Toys stories.
Thanks Troy, I’ll definitely do more!
DAVID!!! That Vince McMahon voice was PERFECT!!! You nailed all of them!!! great video!
Lol I’ve been working on it for years!
Brooooo great comic book and action figure content you should do more of this
Thanks dude. I’ll do a lot more!
Y'see this is why I love your videos - I can take off my pants, open a beer and watch a video and there is no uncomfortable explaining to the lovely missus.
This is how you want us to watch your videos right?
This is how I insist!
You should definitely do more of these videos man, love the story telling with the figures. 👍
I will do!
Loved this one! Felt like I needed to know this story and now I’ve got the gist 😊
Thanks brother!
Volcana is Marsha Rosenburg, Titania is Mary 'Skeeter' MacPherran.
Know it all Comic Guy. LOL
Lol oh with the facts as always!
Titania was bullied her whole life because she was poor malnourished, and therefore grew up weak, thin, and sickly. Her only friend was Marsha. This is why Titania reveled in becoming a powerhouse! And since She Hulk was the strongest heroine, naturally Titania was obsessed with the need to prove herself after a lifetime of being bullied! That's why if She Hulk has an arch enemy it's Titania!
Just cracked a beer and re-arrangeing my shelf . 😅 while I hear this great story .
That’s what this content is here for!
Dave you have to do this with other stories(as told by toys) !
I have done dude. Check out the play lists!
We need that classic Monica Rambeau costume and Beyonder in ML....loved the 3 3/4 Universe Secret Wars twin packs...unfortunately they didn't do everyone for that either.
Yeah she’s be a great addition.
Love this! Very entertaining as always, Dave! Please do the Infinity Gauntlet next.
On a side note, wow where did you get your Molecule Man figure? I hope Hasbro comes up with that figure.
Thanks man. That figure was just a custom I found on google!
Great video David I have a video idea for u. You should do civil war story team building for both iron man and captain america
Oooh that would be epic!
Secret wars is awesome, I really enjoy the old and newer versions, especially seeing God emperor Doom in the newer storyline
Yeah that white Doom is fun
Love the Cartman reference in this one, keep up the great videos!
Any excuse for an impression!
Great video as usual Dave but I think you’re a little off on how this came together. It was Mattel that came to Marvel and they created the entire story just to sell toys not the other way around
Ah right, that makes sense, thank you!
Dave explains Secret Wars 10X > actual Secret Wars. Nuff said.
Lol I try to improve every story!
Excellent and fun review of an epic story.
(The healer's name was "Zsaji", btw... And it was only a massive mountain range, not an entire continent, although holding up a continent WOULD be MUCH MORE impressive!😲😲😅😅😅)
I never really had any of those original toys as a kid, but my best friend Billy had pretty much ALL of them, and introduced me to the comics. He invited me over all the time, so I got to play with them whenever I wanted, so it was kind of like having them, in a way. He gave me extra copies of the comics, so I at least could follow the story and enjoy the awesome artwork.
Now, as an adult, I've been slowly assembling the cast of characters from the "Secret Wars" series, for possibly an eventual display... I pretty much have everyone except those 4 FREAKING Wrecking Crew guys, Volcana, Titania, Molecule Man, Monica Rambeau Captain Marvel, (Or Spectrum, or whatever!), THAT Rogue (costume that is), (because Hasbro won't DO ANY of the damned Rogue costume versions besides that freaking Jim Lee version and the dumb@$$ newer versions)...
Other than those 9 characters, I basically have the cast, well 10 if you include the Healer, Zsaji... And although we DO have an excellent Doom representation for MOST of the series, I'd really like an AFTER his Beyonder battle version of Doom's more techno-oriented armor...
I have the BAF GALACTUS, but the Haslab GALACTUS will definitely replace him later...
Fun fact: Turns out that The Beyonder and Molecule Man were unknowingly, actually two separate parts of a cosmic cube that evolved into the entity called "Kosmos", I believe it was.
Great video, which I've been looking forward to for quite awhile...! Maybe you'll get around to "Acts of Vengeance" before too long...?!😁😉😅 Or maybe Inferno, so you can drag out Hobgoblin---> Demogoblin and his "pet", Doppelganger, for a Halloween Spider-Man story review, perhaps...?!! 😜😁😁
Oh dude acts of vengeance could be a great choice!
I know you got burned on your HasLab Sentinel figure, but I’d still love to see a review!
Thanks dude. I will cover him soon
Hey Dave I was wondering where you got your background diorama that you have your figures displayed in
It mustve worked. My oldest superhero comic is asm 258 where spider-man learns his new costume is alive. And i still have that secret wars dr doom figure lol.
You’ve got the original Doom? Classic!
Dave, It was Mattel, not Toy Biz. Toy biz wasn't around yet in '84.
Ah thank you!
It was Mattel they partnered with on secret wars not toybiz. Still a great video!
Ah yes of course!
The principal person you don t have.....The beyonder.
Great vid, I would love a Beyonder figure!
One day!
So weird I was just thinking a few days ago I'd love to have the whole secret wars line up in marvel legends. I was 12 years old when this book first came out and yes it was the first huge cross over. Great video but Galactus wasnt trying to take the Beyonders power. The heroes stopped him from eating battle world so because he was so hungry he was going to ear his own ship instead. Galactus converted it to energy but before he could take it in Doom stole the energy to give him power to take on the Beyonder. Also the X-men didnt just defend magneto because he was a mutant it was also because some of the heroes didn't trust the X men either.
Hey Ali, thank you so much for clearing up those points for me. I was going by memory and clearly it’s not as good as I thought! :)
@@DisplayingModelBehaviour No problem.
New wrecking crew? Yeah I agree but also a new Absorbing Man would be good maybe on the new Hercules mold or Omega Red.
Yeah AM’s body really isn’t great.
Maybe if the use the Omega Red buck they can use his power to fill those freaking holes!
@@rodericperez4204 I almost forgot about the holes yes good point.
Yo Dave Hester day I saw some original 1984 secret war 5 inch toys and the worker in the small comic book shop was impressed he gave me spider man and black suit for free!
I love the 1984 secret wars because of the 90s Spider-Man TAS episode Secret Wars. But versions are amazing.
The 90s secret wars lead up to the episodes Spider Wars, the original spiderverse.
Yeah those episodes are so nostalgic!
"sonofabitch!"funny as hell! always watch at 1.5speed
Lol dude bravo for understanding my gibberish at 1.5 speed!
Some people used to say that it was really Reed Richards who held up the continent, but passed out due to extreme pain and the Hulk then took over, but there is no proof of this in the continuity, which would mean it was just said because they don’t believe the Hhlk is the strongest one there is
I’ll credit Hulk :)
Great video, but the original toy line was from Mattel, not Toy Biz.
Ah thanks dude
I’m sure someone has pointed this out already, but it wasn’t ToyBiz who made the Secret Wars figures, it was Mattel. This is why Hasbro can’t do retro carded tributes, because Mattel owns much of the trade dress for them
You're absolutely right. Thanks for keeping me honest! :)
@@DisplayingModelBehaviour It's an honest mistake....only reason I know this is that I'm older than dirt, and remember when the Secret Wars figures were released!
I can tell you're an OSW Review fan by the way you cleverly pluck their catch phrases. I'd love for you to do a collab with them where you re enact a PPV with WWE figures.
Dude the OSW lads collaborating with me would be like Stone Cold Steve Austin tagging with Gillberg! Still I’d do it in a heart beat! :)
Secret Wars and War Secrets can be two completely separate story’s and War Secrets go into Secret Wars, Secrets
So much was added by the supplemental material.
Hey Dave, it wasn't toy biz they put these toys out. It was Mattel. You would think you would research this if your weren't around back then ?
It always amazes me how people can see the amount of work and effort that goes in to this channel and think “Yeah, not trying hard enough.”
Pretty sure almost everyone has been released, it's just that most of us, even me, don't have everyone. *Wrecking Crew* The only one's I don't believe have been released are Molecule Man, Titania, and Volcana. Beyonder doesn't show up in the flesh until the second series. And people also forget that the Beyonder did a DC and the heroes had a numbers advantage! A DC is having way more heroes than villains in action figures.
One day we’ll get the crew!
Fantastic video Dave! It's so clear to see all the passion you put into your videos. Good on ya Dave
Thanks Ray. Can’t disguise the passion!
Sorry Dave the first major crossover event in the Marvel 616 universe was/is Contest of Champions 1982 and though they had all heroes it introduced new hero’s too though none of them stuck, Secret wars has the distinction of having a large mix of hero’s and Villains in a crossover event, other than that it was a great video hard to believe the only figures we don’t have is Molecule Man, Volcana, and Titania, man I hated those Mattel figure’s they where awful, thank god Hasbro redid them over in 3 3/4” man they look so much better and they done so many 6” figures they done almost every one but the three I mentioned
I said this on the live.
@@wolfprime good catch I missed the live 😃
@@docavenger1560 Shortly after it was published I remember only having a badly beaten, rolled up second issue and dying to read the other two. I finally was able to read the whole thing this year.
Ah dang it you’re right. Thanks!
@@DisplayingModelBehaviour I would suggest doing Contest of Champions in figures, but so many new, and ultimately forgotten, characters were created for the series. It’d definitely be interesting though.
Someone should do a retro Secret Wars line to go alongside the Super Powers line McFarlane is doing.
That would be fun to see
Secret Wars were Mattel not Toy Biz. TBs wouldnt happen until 1989 with the advent of WB s Tim Burton s cinematic event BATMAN with its action figures and accessories.
Ah thanks you for the correction!
I really hope when they do an MCU movie of this that it's done over a trilogy so we can get everyone including the characters that have died back as I think the Beyonder can control time too. Also in recent years I think there is a friendship between Deadpool and the Beyonder which could be fun to see
That could be the most epic of stories. Certainly one way to top Infinity war!
@@DisplayingModelBehaviour rumour has it that the Russo Brothers want to do it. I just don’t want it to only new MCU characters tho. Would only work really if we had Iron Man back saying that tho I think in the original story James Rhodes is Iron Man
@@bryansalvagejr757 i think the mcu seceret wars should feature all of the main heros and villaisn featured in the mcu so far up on to that point dead and alive..reason it saying he unieted all the best heros and villains that ever lived and brought them all in to one place to see who wins and have it be a big one of for all the characters that died and thye are only alive their and after seceret wars is done everyine is out back where they was like in the comics either back to the after life or where the alive characters that survive the moives get put back where they was to where thye was before being plucked to take part in the event ...i think everyone would be willing to excpet resurrecting dead characters for this one off event and putting them back once the story is over and return them to the after live the ones that died prior to the story...it would work as a big celebration of everything the mcu has done up until that movie..then you can replace the would be inevitable facelless canon foder army with all of the villains featured in the movies until that point making up the giant army we usually get in these movies but intead of another faceless army its made up of all the villains the audiences knows that has a face and backstory..they would be no need for canon foder hencemen because thye can now be filled with all the villinas featured so far..iron monger, whiplash, abomination, red skull, veraint evil loki ( so we dont undo lokis character progression but still feature the villain that first united the avengers at the same time..could alos have redeemed loki meet past evil loki and thier woulc be an intereintg charatcer omement and sub plot their for that character, ronin , ultron, crossbones , baren zemo, thanos and the black order etc..would make for an epic trilogy of films being marvels crown jewl their lord of the rings trilogy..but if the lord of the rings movies had decades worth of storys and movies that took place before it explaing who everyone is before the main event of the lord of the rings story.
@@donbirkinshaw1630 I agree. I am happy if they filmed 2 or 3 movies back to back to make this happen.
@@bryansalvagejr757 i can see this happening..thye need to top infinity war and end game some how which was a 2 parter..susually the cliche when turning the final chapter of a sotry is to do it in 2 parts but here break the mold and tell it in 3 parts..the begining middle and end,, combine elemts form both the oringla seceret wars and the 2015 remake like the death of the multiverse collideing and everyone trying to stop it as the first act of the trilogy and then in part 2 the second act have the beyoneder pluck remaining peaces from the mulitverse instead of bits of plaets from the universe but bits of different mulviterse to put together into one gaint planet that all the survierers of the mulvterses collapse gsts put and the ebye=oneder makes both sides fight to prove their worth and the wining side gets a wish that gets granted..have the second movie end with doom tkaieng the powers of the beyonder to become god empire doom and the 3rd and final act of the trilogy be about trying to stop doom and fix the mulitverse and this leaves the door open for the mcu to have a soft reboot of sorts where they can start over for the new ages recast characters and tell new storys in a new contuinty that takes some eletms from before but alos chnages things up so you can tell new storys wuth them you didnt get to tell before and make a fresh jumping on point start fro a new generation
Dude, could you do an Acts of Vengeance video next
That's not a bad idea!
Mattel was responsible for Secret Wars not Toybiz. Toybiz was later.
Thank you. My bad!
@@DisplayingModelBehaviour No problem it's easy to confuse. Especially later on in time when Toybiz took over everything they could and Avi Arad made Spidey his cash cow. I love your telling of secret wars though alot.
Yes, more please!!!!!!!!!!!!
More to come!
It wasn’t toybiz, it was Mattel.
My bad!
@@DisplayingModelBehaviour
No worries. Just an FYI. Love the channel
Where did you get those flight stands?
They're Gundam stands from ebay
Hello Dave, maybe for another team building exercise or told by toys type video you could do Norman Osborns thunderbolts?🤔
As it happens I’ve actually already done that. Check out the archives!
@@DisplayingModelBehaviour oh? I thought you did the dark avengers
@@rverseflash2482 oh yeah. Even I got confused.
@@DisplayingModelBehaviour lol
Good stuff as usual. Sidenote: Hulk lifted a mountain, not a continent. Gotta get the facts on your fiction right Bro. Lol
He told me it was a continent. Big, green liar!
Have you ever teried a reed richards head on a Spiderman to represent a slightly older spiderman
Mattel produced and released Secret Wars not Toybiz, lol. Great video though.
Secret wars was literally just a kid playing with his toys not that I’m complaining about it I mean that what we all did as kids we would line up our figures and just clash them together
That’s why Secret wars was so fun :)
Sorry bruh but Secret Wars wasnt done by ToyBiz...that campaign was with Mattel, and it was in '85 not '84
Ah thank you bud. I need you guys to keep me honest!
It was 84
👀
Please do the second one, never got to read it
It’s on the list!
Dave, you accidentally said Toybiz instead of Mattel multiple times, haha.
Mattel did the Secret Wars action figures.....not Toy Biz.
I'm not familiar with that Molecule Man figure. Didn't know it existed.
Looks like a custom
That's what I'm thinking. I have been looking for it in Toy Biz and Legends and not seeing it.
Oh yeah just a custom big Ed
Yes. Well, I am now at 5 Evil Black Widows for you and Juanita to face, with 2 more purchased and on the way.
For your next 'Good News' update;
Kickstarter for Street Humans tomorrow
Kickstarter for Future Warriors
Red Sonja, Purgatori, and Vampirella from Dynamite, now up pretty much everywhere.
I wish I could kickstarter both of those, both are awesome, but I can only do one and I need the Street Humans more. The Future Warriors would be an Upper Level Mercenary team and I kind of just did one of those with Overwatch and human Fortnite figures. I hope they get funded so I can get them down the road. For the ladies, they are high quality and not cheap. So again I have to choose 1 for now. I chose Red Sonja. I actually have a pretty decent Purgatori from a few years ago. I also have a Vampirella, although very limited articulation. So my order for them will be Red Sonja, Vampirella, then Purgatori. And I ordered Hellwitch a couple months ago. Demona will also hopefully be down the road too. Ah, back to the grind. I'm starting still another Villain tote. Can you believe that just the pics I sent you were almost 500 figures! And I have several huge ones and a lot of smaller ones I have to go through as I'm finally doing an inventory and a count.
The Russian accent sounds very similar to Ninja from Die Antword
Lol that must be the influence!
I thought prof x and the x men were really racist in this story,lol,it wasnt the most subtle writing ever
Yeah they didn't come off great
But…magneto is labeled a villain because humans literally attacked him & his people for being Jewish THEN they attack him & his people for being Jewish. He tired of it. He just wants to take his people and be left alone
Great video btw
Thanks brother!
People did say that about boys want to play with boy dolls not Girl dolls because it was the summer of 1985 I got straight A's and I wanted the cheetara ThunderCats complete my collection and my dad said that's a girl toy it's for girls you can't get it
Ah man that’s sad. I hope you got yourself a cheetara eventually!
You know you've done good when you're put on time out for a joke
WAR SECRETS.
how about secret wars
LOL
It is a fact that young boys (and young girls) don't want to play with toys of the opposite sex. Sure, a few characters here and there but genuinely this is the case. They like to see themselves in the characters. A boy can't see himself in a female character and a girl can't see herself in a male character. And there is nothing wrong with that.
I always played Turtles with my sister as little kids. She’s have enjoyed a girl Turtle.
Personally I always wanted Arcee for my Transformers collection.
@@DisplayingModelBehaviour As I said, sure a few characters.
O
SMH, bro. Toy biz did not make secret wars figures. mattel did. Toy biz had the license after. geeze dude i like your channel but do some research.
You’re right, I’m clearly putting no effort in to these videos.
