    I adore the revoltech figures because they have always come across as incredibly fun to me. The figures donot look like human beings would in figure form, that is there, but what they do offer fits in well with my taste.

    Nice and really informative review, Anthony. Revoltech is most definitely not my thing, but I can see why people like them.
    By the way, the pictures at the end are the reason I don't completely hate the line, when people pose them properly without their balls exposed (nobody wants to see some exposed balls) those figures look great, kudos on the pics, my dude.

    • @DeadKraken

      Yes, Deathstroke is the only one I'm saving money for.

    • @hime1896
      @hime1896 3 года назад

      I'd argue that Harley and some of their mha figs are also one of their bests. It's nice to see that they finally get their groove with making stylized figs with amazing articulation and mostly seamless joints nowadays. For price and quality, I'd say they're turning to one of the best toy lines now imo.

  • @top7records843
    @top7records843 3 года назад +1

    I like how the more the review goes, the less is left of the figure. I'm at 17min in and the poor Gambit has lost his face, his coat along with both his arms and one leg. Almost at the point of being a tronc guy. Looking forward to the end of the review. Great job from a review standard point. Anthony definitely speaks his mind and it's refreshing and highly useful for use collectors. So thank you.
    Note : my personal best revoltech figure so far is Carnage. It works beautyfully with this character.

  • @goochipoochie
    @goochipoochie 5 лет назад +2

    I am a super huge revoltech fan but i 100% agree with the final rating ( 7/10 ). The overall joints on this figure seem a step down after batman and deathstroke ( batman's cape was divisive and cumbersome but the body itself was pretty good apart from the kneecaps ) and my main issue would be the falling faceplate and the neck joint. Still not a bad figure at all but i will be replacing him with mezco gambit as soon as i can ( unless they fuck that up ). Or maybe mafex suddenly surprises us with their rendition of Gambit. ( No ML, ty very much )

    I only have the Revoltech Alien Warrior, and I love him, but his joints annoy me.
    This guy looks great, but I'm going to go with Mezco's One:12 Collective version.

    I may still get their Psylocke, just because the Marvel Legends versions just...suck.

    This figure looks like it might possibly be fun to play with, some of the poses I've seen online make this figure look very fun, and, like you, I really love Gambits aesthetic overall, always loved the character and because of this, this figure was really hard to turn down. But man, $80+ depending on where you live and the quality of this figure, by what I've seen, from most reviews , is absolutely atrocious! In almost every review I've watched those face plates have been really loose, the quality of the plastic appears to be like Anthony said, "made of dogshit" and some of the joints are not even functional. $80+... let that sink in.. Even as a die hard Gambit fan girl, I am happy to say that I still have enough intelligence to avoid this figure.. Overall I like the stylized look of this guy, definitely not as bad as some Revoltech's.. $40 maybe, $50 at a push, but it's never worth $80! Thats just madness to me. Hopefully Mezco will give us a good Gambit. They are expensive too but the quality is definitely a step up most of the time. Good review Anthony 🐱‍👤🔥💖🤘

    I bought this figure on eBay and even though I avoided cheap chinese sellers and I made sure to buy from a listing that has a picture of the box that shows the Marvel logo, the figure coming off the box has a really strong chemical stench that kinda smells like moth balls. Anyone know if revoltech figs just naturally have that weird smell or is that a sign of a fake? I've heard some people try to scam others by replacing the actual fig with a cheap fake and I'm wondering if that's what's happening here.

      @@AnthonysCustoms You did Most of them but the joint on the lower leg you did not explain much. You just said you dont get why kaiyodo makes stupid decisions like this. On some of the previous figures such as the wolverine It was a ball joint. On some of the newer ones this was now replaced by the traditional reveltech/yamaguchi joint. I was kinda like u when first saw that and prefer the ball joint more. Later when I tried to play with It a bit more I then understood why They did the switch. It still allows the same range of movement(but a lot harder to achieve/mostly require you to pull off the leg first and then put It back after adjusting the joint) but provide relatively more stability.
      I cant say this decision was the right one buy It has its pros n cons. It certainly works for characters with slim leggs as a smaller ball joint Would be too weak.

    This whole line(amazing yamaguchi) is plagued with horrible decisions. A basic revoltech figure is far better IMO. Not sure why they cannot get the proper joints and tolerances with this line like they do normal revoltech. I have the revoltech predator figure from like 10 years ago and it is amazing other than the head being too big. Absolutely no fear of breaking joints and there is 0 gapping or awkward joints. Amazing yamaguchi really leaves me scratching my head wondering if this even comes from the same company. Lol

    Revoltech seriously needs to STAWHP turning their action figure lines into prebuilt model kits. So many unnecessary experimentation with cuts here and there all for the sake of articulation. I hope they do find their groove of making a compromise of articulation and sculpt. Also, I wanna say I do love a figure with decent to amazing articulation, but there has to be a way to make it look seamless without turning the figure into a literal puzzle 🧩 of an figure.

Also I want to point out that I do enjoy the challenge of posing these figures, but not when it comes at the cost of losing sculpt because of unnecessary ugly cuts. Just look at Mafex’s 90’s Spider-Man, that figure has an amazing range of pose-ability

    wow, what a great looking, yet, horribly engineered figure.

    Worst figure ever. Don't like that style

    Hyper stylized figures are great, but not Revoltech. No matter how you pose them, they look bad on all sides. And if problem is not in sculpt, then it is in quality control.
    Two of my figures - broke the very first day. Yeah, no thanks. Revoltech Carnage figure and Deathstroke - were great. The rest is mediocre.

    Revos are trash for the most part and this is no exception. Carnage is the best one and generally a great figure

    I want to like this line but I cant. I went from hating this figure to just not liking it. The arms kill it for me.
