It really does suck that they took all these crap bodies that we’ve been getting for 8+ years and (assumably) made the tooling to get them pinless. Because that means they’ll be using them for another 8+ years.
I literally laughed out loud as soon as I saw it. It looks like a child in a Halloween costume with some muscle padding. I question the intelligence of anyone who claims this is a good figure.
The shoulders got me. His neck is a mile long by all appearances, with how low they are and how much scarf is there between them and his chin. OOOF. I love Moon Knight but this is an Ollie's pickup.
I got him to complete my West Coast Avengers. I like the figure. I agree 100% about the shoulders, but I'm able to look past it. My favorite is still the black and white armored figure from the recent windowless packaging.
Bought separately a Blackheart BAF for my Marvel vs. Capcom display. Don't care about the rest of this goofy wave. Hope we can get a Mafex Moon Knight one day...
The cape is reuse from animated 97 Magneto, the hands are a reuse from the black and white version this figure, the boots are a recolored reuse from white version of this figure. The only thing new are the gauntlets and belt. I really dunno why this keep putting him on this body when he's typically drawn more imposing in size regarding muscular than this body type. I think vulcan or the new 2 pack punisher body mold would do this character more justice. The only reason why I'm getting this figure is to make a custom Spot figure
Not owning any of them, I think the Revoltech Moon Knight figure is much better. But Marvel Legends is “budget “ figures even though they are increasing the prices more and more…
The black paint with white body armor is definitely Moon Knight’s best look, in my opinion. You said not to buy it unless you’re super invested in Moon Knight, but… I AM super invested in Moon Knight and I think that’s why I hate this figure even more.
I really want HASBRO to lose their Marvel license. They've infantalised the customers and fans, denigrated the characters with childish product, stuck to fingers up to their customers, gaslighted us ALL, and had the barefaced cheek to up their prices. This is, at best, a happy meal product. I WANT MY HAPPY MEAL!
I know Anthony has high standards and doesn't sugar coat anything. But I'd love an end of the year video where he shows only stuff he really likes. Lol
To anyone buying this, I’m selling the trash out of my kitchen trash can. 1/2 gallon milk jug. A 16 count egg carton with 5 egg shells. And 4 paper towels that I wiped the counter with. Hit me up.
Releases like this make me realize that I am over ML. It's been a good run, but at $25+ per figure and the scarcity of some characters because of scalping and limited releases (looking right at Warbird that I never found), it's just lost all appeal. One good figure every few waves is bogus. I want a good Moon Knight. Hasbro might not care about the character enough to give him a dedicated sculpt and the whole deluxe treatment, but that's what we deserve. Charge this amount and stop the baf model. Give each character more sculpt and accessories and just sell the larger figures as single releases. We might not get obscure throw away characters like Shikla. But did we ask for her? Giving us random characters to fill out a wave that are just new heads on old bodies is crap at this price.
@AnthonysCustoms Same. I was looking at my collection and trying to figure out what to display and I'm out of space with tubs of figures still and I'm just not happy with most of it. Just filled out teams and really only care about Spiderman and X-Men characters. Even Galactus isn't really exciting because he's just been in the same pose forever.
That is why I dropped the pre-orders for the Secret wars bar Titania, they are the same bodies we had but pin-less... whooo. I will pick up the Beyonder on sale as he's not the look from Spider-Man cartoon :P
I doubt it. This is Hasbro, after all. If they cut waves down to 4 instead of 6, they would probably lower the budget accordingly. So we wouldn't get 4 figures with the budget of 6 figures, we'd get 4 figures with a budget of 4.
Terrible figure that Legends fanboys will still buy and post that Hasbro are “crushing it”. And Hasbro will continue to make this junk. $26 USD for this? Great review though. We can count on your honesty.
If Hasbro was gonna be lazy then they should've just used the Vulcan or amazing fantasy mold I hope they lose the license one day because all of marvel legends's flaws are inexcusable
If hasbro looses the liscence we will have to start from scratch with a new company which means more iron man, hulk, Spider-Man all the guys that have had tons of figures already no thanks
@JohnMcBride-o9c Hasbro sucks anyway, Jada actually knows how to design Action figures so they're the best candidate Mcfarlane would make it even worse
Fists, grabbing hands, style pose or martial arts hands. His staff, his sickle (this version doesn't use it, but still), that cross thingy, two heads with different mask designs. The crecent batarang things with their own effect parts
Thanks for your review on this one Anthony. Looks like another hot mess from ML . Imagine this figure is needed if you wanted the BAF? Like yourself, I view this wave as another marketing scheme from ML to promote mediocre product. When ML's efforts in design and décor are stifled (or some say laid-off) their product is incomparable to anything in the market because there isn't anything else out there this bad. Save for kids' toys. How much longer can Hasbro ML succeed in the adult collecting market until a realization that better product is available elsewhere? As long as fools part with their money I suppose.
It's a weird combination of elements from the classic 80's era like the bracelets and belt, and more modern ones like the scarf and the narrow cape. And poorly done. Too bad.
0/10 aesthetic 😂 im not even mad because my goodness hasbro would it kill you to add a lil shading on a solid white figure. The laziness from them upsets me so much in the marvel legends line and the gold actually looks very nice but when u slap it onto this cheap ass body and just put a moon logo on his chest cmon man. Proportions look weird with the big hood around the head compared to small a** shoulders. Thanks for keeping it honest Anthony. I'll probably get the show ver. And maybe a mafex if they ever do one
It really does suck that they took all these crap bodies that we’ve been getting for 8+ years and (assumably) made the tooling to get them pinless. Because that means they’ll be using them for another 8+ years.
"filler figure in the multipack with the figure you actually want" ahh body
honestly that two-toned cape has way more paint put into it than entire waves of ML.
I literally laughed out loud as soon as I saw it. It looks like a child in a Halloween costume with some muscle padding. I question the intelligence of anyone who claims this is a good figure.
The shills will say it's good
Hahahaha, aye, BIG TIME! 👍
The shoulders got me. His neck is a mile long by all appearances, with how low they are and how much scarf is there between them and his chin. OOOF. I love Moon Knight but this is an Ollie's pickup.
Thank god the Revoltech one exists
I hope they do a second run, as I wasn't able to get it the first time. 🤞
"hilariously bad" is the new hasbro catch phrase
1:19- caught me off guard 🤣
Completely agree, when I saw this in person I was so disgusted by the shoulders/neck. Like it’s just hilarious how bad it looks
It looks like it's a putty patrol from Power Rangers cosplaying as Moon Knight
Love the music at start
Darwin going in for a kiss on MK there, LOL
I got him to complete my West Coast Avengers.
I like the figure. I agree 100% about the shoulders, but I'm able to look past it. My favorite is still the black and white armored figure from the recent windowless packaging.
armor ftw
Imagine a mafex moonknight on the same terms of daredevil
I always prefer Moon Knight with armor.
I swapped the shoulders with the Falcon figure and added a cloth cape and it makes it infinitely a better figure
Did you have to repaint? Any figures use the larger shoulders casted in white?
@ I did. The shoulders are casted in white but it was a different shade of white. So I did a dry brush of Vallejo white all over to match it
Mafex needs to make a moon knight, hasbro is clearly never going to give us a good one
Figures that require 0 paint makes Hasbro's bottom line very happy.
Is it bad that I first thought this was a woman from how it was sculpted? Just rename the line Cosplay Legends, that's all we seem to get these days
These are great for the price! $10 at ollies is reasonable.
Bought separately a Blackheart BAF for my Marvel vs. Capcom display.
Don't care about the rest of this goofy wave. Hope we can get a Mafex Moon Knight one day...

I just want the Blackheart head. Maybe I’ll just buy that from eBay.

I know Anthony has high standards and doesn't sugar coat anything. But I'd love an end of the year video where he shows only stuff he really likes. Lol
I'd venture to guess that list would include MS Captain America, Mafex Daredevil, most of the Jada figures, and maybe those Battle Toads figures
i do a variety of top 10 videos every year. should scratch that itch for you
Looking at his videos and looking at action figure design
His standards are actually regular, Most people are just too tolerant of garbage
@AnthonysCustoms already watched them. Want one for this year
To anyone buying this, I’m selling the trash out of my kitchen trash can. 1/2 gallon milk jug. A 16 count egg carton with 5 egg shells. And 4 paper towels that I wiped the counter with. Hit me up.
That's a way better deal. You probably put more effort gathering them up than Hasbro put into this figure
Releases like this make me realize that I am over ML.

I'm going to sell a lot of mine. No reason for me to own them all

Just filled out teams and really only care about Spiderman and X-Men characters. Even Galactus isn't really exciting because he's just been in the same pose forever.
I honestly gave up on Hasbro's repaint cycle in like 2016
That is why I dropped the pre-orders for the Secret wars bar Titania, they are the same bodies we had but pin-less... whooo. I will pick up the Beyonder on sale as he's not the look from Spider-Man cartoon :P
I prefer aesthetic over functionality, if it looks goofy what's the point
I agree
This design could look so epic on a better proportioned base body. Wasted opportunity 😢
Maybe a full wave of figs should only be like 4 tops, then maybe those 4 will get a nice treatment
I doubt it. This is Hasbro, after all.
If they cut waves down to 4 instead of 6, they would probably lower the budget accordingly. So we wouldn't get 4 figures with the budget of 6 figures, we'd get 4 figures with a budget of 4.
The first second that I saw the figure on the vid preview I tought 'ohoh this is gonna end so badly' xD jeez he's horrible
Terrible figure that Legends fanboys will still buy and post that Hasbro are “crushing it”. And Hasbro will continue to make this junk. $26 USD for this? Great review though. We can count on your honesty.
Sad to see so wimpy Moon Knight.
If Hasbro was gonna be lazy then they should've just used the Vulcan or amazing fantasy mold
I hope they lose the license one day because all of marvel legends's flaws are inexcusable
If hasbro looses the liscence we will have to start from scratch with a new company which means more iron man, hulk, Spider-Man all the guys that have had tons of figures already no thanks
That's what hasbro does anyway
@JohnMcBride-o9c Hasbro sucks anyway, Jada actually knows how to design Action figures so they're the best candidate
Mcfarlane would make it even worse
@@JohnMcBride-o9cIf another company takes over and makes a great Spider-Man, I'll totally buy it.
(ignoring the figure) What would be a 10/10 batch of accessories for Moon Knight? ‼️
Fists, grabbing hands, style pose or martial arts hands. His staff, his sickle (this version doesn't use it, but still), that cross thingy, two heads with different mask designs. The crecent batarang things with their own effect parts
so which Moonknight figure from Marvel Legends would you suggest getting?
Armor version
They did my favorite Ketamine fiend dirty with this figure. $26 for this goofy ass thing? Hard pass.
Moon Knight? More like Moon Giraffe

Hasbro's slogan should be, "A fool and his money are soon parted." It's their entire business model for the collectible branch of the company.
@@AnthonysCustoms I wonder if they lead with that slogan when meeting Disney for the Marvel license renewal.
seems likely
Would have been nice to see Mephisto as the BAF, Hasbro. That is why you fail.
I almost spat out my coffee when the thumbnail popped up that looks pathetic
im so glad i dont collect marvel legends, they genuinely have to be some of the ugliest figures ive ever seen 💀💀
It's a weird combination of elements from the classic 80's era like the bracelets and belt, and more modern ones like the scarf and the narrow cape. And poorly done. Too bad.
Man Hasbro... Just do better. You can do it. We've all seen it.
After the first 3 minutes of this video, I see no reason to NOT do a Jinx review...lol.
I stopped collecting marvel legends for this exact reason. They are just sandbox toys.
0/10 aesthetic 😂 im not even mad because my goodness hasbro would it kill you to add a lil shading on a solid white figure.

Who said this is the best Moon Knight figure?? This buck sucks and the head is way too big.
i hatethis body buck i took eveything of him and put it on the comic zero body yea no butter fly joints but 100 times better
