Torch is an iconic Dreadnok and a necessity in my collection. This looks good, with a few minor issues I can remedy myself. Number one is those glasses which will be painted with a better tint.
Mine just came today. I wish the wrist pivots were opposing so you can pose the thrower without bending it, but the plastic is super soft, so I guess it doesnt matter.
The shipping dates for this wave of figures is ALL OVER the place, it's so complicated to just BUY A TOY these days. Amazon & Pulse says August still, BBTS now says sold out 😂
And to add 2 that why does it take so freekn long for a 4 figure wave marvel legends have dropped 3 waves of 6 with bad parts and no of the links he said had it HAD IT ONLY PREORDER GUESS my impatience will have me get great American hero from overseas lol
Absolutely nobody should be upset about the glasses. There was so many content creators complaining about the others glasses falling off and possibly losing them, or not fitting flush or correct. And I didn't see any push back from anybody saying they like the glasses being removable. For the most part people just want these things to be made just like the 80s. But now I'm sure when these things become widely available we're going to hear people complaining, but we shouldn't. 🤔
I like glasses being removable. I like the options and I'm not a child who loses accessories for silly reasons. I also prefer translucency where it makes sense (though not here). Buzzer has the worst fitting glasses but just like all of them, a little heat and pressure goes a long way to making a snug fit. If all else fails, a grain of sticky tack works too. Thinking content creators aren't an echo chamber of little complaints is ignorance. I may be the minority but I can handle a little fuss from time to time if it means better display options.
I was looking forward to this figure. Frank Welker imbued the character with his usual magnificence. My favorite line that sticks with me to this day was from G.I. Joe The Movie, where he's instructing the Cobra grunts, and burns a false building Construct and says, "burn the foundation, and the rest comes TUMBLING DOWN!" This is the best drednock!
Great looking figure. I just wish they had given him the proper torch. He didn't have a flame thrower. He had an oxy-acetylene torch for cutting metal and such like the other dreadnoks Buzzer a diamond toothed chainsaw and Ripper Jaws of life they were a wrecking crew
Not sure if anyone has mentioned this but I found that the fire effect will work on the Hiss tanks nose cannons or main. Kinda cool blow torch on the front of the Hiss. I didn’t force them in as it is tight fit.
Nice review punk. I got mine sitting in my pile of loot because I only buy the collector grade from BBBTS so I’ll leave it sitting there since I’m not gonna open it up anyway but figure looks awesome. That sucks about the flame effects and the bat WTF.
@@Apunkwithtoys yeah I keep two in the box of each figure and I open at least one of each figure. If I figure has three heads scopes, then I have three of that figure open and displayed. I’m kind of sick with it lol
i hate how they gave him vertical hinges on the hands. Especially on the left hand, this figure could really use horizontal hinges. But thats my only gripe with this figure.
a cheap hobby grade pin drill should fix the bats right up. I'm going to use my extra flam effect on barbeque though. I always thought it was a flame thrower in the 80s and I'm still going to use it now. It may be a war crime now but there's nothing more effective at clearing out an entrenched position then a flame thrower...maybe Barbeque just sees all cobra troopers as BATS?😂😂😂😂
Nice! You got that quite early. Can't wait to have mine soon. Thanks for the review. I really apreciate that you compare all the figures with the originals 👍👍 that's a great point for you man! (In case I haven't told you before, thanks!) Also the try on the port effects. The Bats need a flame effect.😢 This Torch guy is Lemmy Kilmister from Motörhead 😝🤘 The jacket, belt etc so good, looks nice and detailed. Good figure.🔥 He has the sunglasses sculpted, I thought they would reuse snow job's or something like that I like the skull on the flamethrower, it's ok. Cheers from Spain dude! See ya next figure.🤘
This is great!!! People who complain about it not being true to the original just wait until the retro drops. But other than that I'm excited for this one. Just happy we are getting the dreads. Maybe the next vehicle will be some dread vehicles or maybe the Thunder for a haslab
I'm building a huge Crimson army atm but 100% the dreadnoks are my favorites cant wait for him gnawgahyde road pig zandar and thrasher oh and monkey wrench and zanzibar lol need them all
Sweet! Pre-ordered mine from Amazon months ago. Hopefully I’ll get it sometime soon lol. This comment sponsored by Powerade, now with more electrolytes, and free mulch
I agree with the spelling issue. I get that they teased that Torch is illiterate, but I will argue that we have seen too many spelling issues or quality issues that a step feels like it's being skipped somewhere
The flames on the back pocket are stupid 😂😂 I’m not into that at all 😂 makes em look like girl jeans i don’t know why with the dreadnok Characters they always got to Take it one step to far and do something silly and goofy

Can't wait to complete the original trio. I'm also excited to see what they do with the other dreadnoks

YUP. July still in the land of the Oz.

The same goes with the @target exclusive Marvel legend Warbird preorder fiasco
Meh, I cancelled my pre-order for him. Some of the nostalgia is wearing off for me and I don't need to add so many to my display any longer....

New boxes look nice and man I need to buy that flame effect for my 40K figures!
You should just start collecting Classified again lol
I coveted my best friends neighbors GI Joe collection. It was epic, more 80's then. I got the General for Christmas and it was amazing
Good review 😊
Those flame effects look pretty nice. I kind of wish they gave him the trench knife instead of the extra sidearm.
They’re really nice.
Great looking figure. I just wish they had given him the proper torch. He didn't have a flame thrower. He had an oxy-acetylene torch for cutting metal and such like the other dreadnoks Buzzer a diamond toothed chainsaw and Ripper Jaws of life they were a wrecking crew
Can't wait to get mine in hand it's on the way great review as usual
very cool! He needs a Bad Religion patch on his vest!
They ain't going to do that ever cause people would lose it.
Not sure if anyone has mentioned this but I found that the fire effect will work on the Hiss tanks nose cannons or main. Kinda cool blow torch on the front of the Hiss. I didn’t force them in as it is tight fit.
Torch looks great and yes a must have in my colection very close to the 3 inch figure and looks alittle more detailed than the other two
Good review! There was fun editing at the end, too! :D
They should just release them all in retro card. Unless its a deluxe figure.
Well they need to make more money, and I’m fine with the box.
Nice review punk. I got mine sitting in my pile of loot because I only buy the collector grade from BBBTS so I’ll leave it sitting there since I’m not gonna open it up anyway but figure looks awesome. That sucks about the flame effects and the bat WTF.
You’re an in box collector?
@@Apunkwithtoys yeah I keep two in the box of each figure and I open at least one of each figure. If I figure has three heads scopes, then I have three of that figure open and displayed. I’m kind of sick with it lol
Great looking figure. Looking forward to this one in the collection
We needed him to complete the Noks
i hate how they gave him vertical hinges on the hands. Especially on the left hand, this figure could really use horizontal hinges. But thats my only gripe with this figure.
That Cobra crapper is hilarious!
Awesome, waiting on mail man,lol cool and nawg is now shipping also

Very cool! Can't wait to get mine.
The blast effects make the figure!
He's got a real "young lemmy" look going on. The bat can just be drilled out a little.
Yes he does. It could, but not everyone wants to try that.
@@Apunkwithtoystrue, I'm just so used to modding things it's like nothing to me to drill out a hole.
Other than the black on his legs (I stead of grey) he's perfect
Great review! Thanks!
Dude you beat Shark eyes and Frostbite to this one. Epic. Great review I can’t wait to get this figure. He was my favorite Dred as a kid.
I vote for Roman’s opinion on the knoks
Roman is always right
If it needs to be larger, why not drill out the ports on the BAT weapon? Just a thought.
If there is enough thickness on the BAT flame nozzle, that's exactly what I intend to do.
Nice! You got that quite early. Can't wait to have mine soon.
Thanks for the review. I really apreciate that you compare all the figures with the originals 👍👍 that's a great point for you man! (In case I haven't told you before, thanks!)

You said "so anyway " at least 4 times before finally getting to the figure lol. So anyway, cant wait to get this next wave of Joes
First-rate comparison and review!
Awesome brother!!! 😎 👍
Guns are better than knives in a knife fight too.
Great!
I'm happy the shades are molded in🎉🎉🎉
Excited for mine when it arrives
Nice review 🎉🎉🎉
Originally he was supposed to have the drednoks patch on the back of his leather jacket but Hasbro pulse canceled that idea for whatever reasons😅
The missiles on the HMS say heet
Hi friend, what is the name of that diorama in the background and where can I find it? Thank you very much.
Dear friend, does Torch or Gnawgahyde have the same skin tone as Marvel Legends Shang Chi (demogoblin series) please?
I'm building a huge Crimson army atm but 100% the dreadnoks are my favorites cant wait for him gnawgahyde road pig zandar and thrasher oh and monkey wrench and zanzibar lol need them all
👍🏼
💪🏼
Good Review
Another great review, should have mine any day now
Great review. Waiting for my bbts pile of loot to ship out. Was able to get him a few days ago before he sold out. He looks awesome.
I have seen alot of your videos...do u actually put butter on your fingertips??????
Do you mean because I drop stuff, nope.
@@Apunkwithtoys no because u constantly butter corn with your fingers. Yes because u always dropping stuff. 😆🤣
Thanks for this review Mr. Frontera.
is the figure gumming. Most of my figures are gumming.
Last I saw bbts was sold out.
Not surprised as everyone probably tried to order them once they found out they were in stock.
Sweet! Pre-ordered mine from Amazon months ago. Hopefully I’ll get it sometime soon lol. This comment sponsored by Powerade, now with more electrolytes, and free mulch
Wish I would’ve done mine through BBTS! Amazon says first week in August!😖
Motorhead 🤘
The torch looks rubbery.
He's sold out because I was going to order one lol
Lemmy!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
if you put a mole on his cheek, he would look like Lemi from Motorhead
I agree with the spelling issue. I get that they teased that Torch is illiterate, but I will argue that we have seen too many spelling issues or quality issues that a step feels like it's being skipped somewhere
If that was the excuse an X would have been a much better misspelling....
The flames on the back pocket are stupid 😂😂 I’m not into that at all 😂 makes em look like girl jeans i don’t know why with the dreadnok
Characters they always got to
Take it one step to far and do something silly and goofy
I GOT TO HAVE A 2ND TO KEEP UP WITH COLLECTING GI JOE AND ACTION FORCE🤑NICE REVIEW AS USUAL
It’s an expensive hobby
He looks like Lemmy from Motorhead
Pretty sure it's a dog collar.
