It would be awesome to see updates on the figure room. I think this is a ok figure to stand on a shelf but i'm not a fan of the exposed armpits and they could've put at least an ab crunch in the torso.
I don’t *hate* this figure, but man did he need a better face. This isn’t a “Sweet Christmas!”, this guy’s more of a “hey, have a good Christmas or whatever, I guess.”
Thank you. I think a HUGE miss by Hasbro is making the chain link belt removable, and possibly having an extended out one as an accessory for him to hold in his hand.
Whilst not the most egregious-looking figure to feature on Anthony’s channel, it is just another typically subpar Hasbro Marvel Legends figure. I do not fancy the dull, impassive head sculpt. Progress pictures of the process of your studio/collection room sounds lovely to me, mate. Should be good fun! 🙏 And congratulations again to you and your family on the new home. 👍 Giovanni Marino, M.D.🇬🇧
I noticed Lady Bullseye has the same weird paint/sculpture issues with the body color showing through the armpit. I picked up Blade from this line, but that’s all I could justify buying
Wow! That yellow is bright!😂 We enjoyed the review, Anthony! Thank you for sharing! Also, we would love to see some progress pictures of your studio basement and workroom! Congratulations to you and your family! 👏
Been waiting for classic 70s Power Man and Iron Fist, so this one will have to suffice. There will be corrections made to the pits and the head, though. And yes to basement tapes!
Anthony, I'm Glad you've adjusted to rating by the context of the line, makes the criticisms fit better for the average viewer/ collector. I used to think you were too harsh before but you are right on the money here my dude.
Besides the skin showing under the arm, I don't mind the way this figure looks. When it comes to the paint of Marvel Legends figures, as long as the figure has a matte finish, I can live with it. Hasbro is gonna Hasbro. It's wild that this figure looks like a 100% new sculpt and it still wasn't perfect. I'm not a Power Man fan, but I may buy this if I see it on sale.
Qs of the day: Please and thank you for in-progress pics and I’m fine with the head sculpt. I guess we all have our own set of dealbreakers when it comes to aesthetics. One of mine is using an overlay on a shirted character instead of sculpting the torso and avoiding all of the associated issues like Toy Biz did what? 17 years ago? I can make it work in a display by keeping the figure in vanilla poses and looking at it straight on, but what a cheap/bonehead design decision on a highly anticipated (by many) figure.
Dude, I appreciate that because after seeing everyone trashing the figure, I question my own sense of proportions 😂 I actually thought it was an ok figure. The legs are reflecting the baggy style of the 70s I think. But good to know that I'm not going crazy. Yeah it is super average but I doubt we'll get any better at this stage from Hasbro. And yes, all for updates on the new house, congratulations!
they could’ve taken notes from Jada with the Ryu figure and have the shirt piece be the same soft plastic as Ryu’s Gi so we can have some type of torso articulation oh and also the boot does not rotate, it’s a square peg because that makes so much sense 👍🏻
A Marvel Legends collection ends up looking good when you have hundreds of characters but they should cost something in between $10 to $25 (regular to BAF size). Thanks for the review Anthony.
I’d love to see basement progress pics. And those shelf setting streams you did a while back were a lot of fun. Maybe something similar when the time comes?
Terrible figure and would be cool to see the progress of the basement. I just got the super missile accessory you made and it’s wonderful, I would love if you make more items for samus, maybe a beam accessory
I want to see your updates, would be cool! I kinda like this figure but I can't understand why this guy can't get the same articulation scheme as the Ryu from Jada. What's stopping Hasbro from doing that?
I quit buying figures with bored expressions. Give me a smile, a grimace, a yell... some human emotion. I really don't like the neck hinge. That's a deal breaker for me. I was excited for this figure when it was announced... and then I saw it.
Congrats on your own house. Also got one a few months back. Sure, please share your progress. Always interesting how someone puts his collector room together. And again a great (Hasbro) review. I love your honesty regarding their products. Thought making a serious jump into those figures but after holding some "good" of them in my hands and compared them with other toy lines... it is rediculous how bad they are for the given price tag. Thanks again for warning me. 😅
No excuse for not having boot cut, boot is a separate piece anyway wtf? I can live with the ball jointed waist but why did they totally shit the bed on this wave!
Hi Anthony I’Ve been watching you since the mcfarlane Halo days And your videos are always so helpfull. So i just wanted to thank you for being such an important part of me growing up. Anyway, i was just going to answer the question of the day, and It was a Yes, i would like to see the progress on your studio c:
the reality is that when examined through a sane educated assessment of Hasbros execution of Marvels IP the results show a lack of quality and attention to logical and reasonable standards that should be present and exist in a state of equality in regards to the product made for consumers standards. Anthony may be perceived as having a pessimistic oversight of the products in question but when examined and perceived through a inherently non-biased discernment his attitude and reviews for the greater good of the collecting community at large reflect a knowledge and wisdom that is justified and embodies the greater good of the community at large. Logic and reason suggest we demand greater quality in the product we all engage with our totality of money they misappropriate back into the future designs we all collectively anticipate (=
No angry head...are they smoking? Have they ever seen the cover of the comic?😂 We barely get any characters that are of color and when we do, they're mostly reused. It's really frustrating as a person of color. I think everybody would have preferred the midnight son's version of Blade. Yes Anthony we definitely want to see your setup progress 👏🏾 Fwoosh articulated icons managed to figure out how to have solid articulation movement with a robe.
i have always LOVED the design of Luke Cage. He's like a 1970s disco wet dream for me, but yeah. This figure is a bit underwhelming. Still, i appreciate this review.
Have heard a lot of statements about Hasbro being lazy with this or that with figs, but this one, other than the actual sculpt, has lazy all over it (no boot cut, the armpits, etc).
Even though I want a retro Luke Cage in my collection, I'm going to have to pass on this at MSRP. I'll think about it when it hits under $15. It's too much of a lazy figure that they made.
It would be awesome to see updates on the figure room. I think this is a ok figure to stand on a shelf but i'm not a fan of the exposed armpits and they could've put at least an ab crunch in the torso.
The torso sculpt is nice and new - but the peculiar omission of an abdominal crunch articulation is baffling.
I don’t *hate* this figure, but man did he need a better face. This isn’t a “Sweet Christmas!”, this guy’s more of a “hey, have a good Christmas or whatever, I guess.”
Heck yeah, I’d love to see your home progress! Thanks!
The jacket and chain looks like Happy Meals toy level of quality
I'm loving it
A prime example of Hasbro being Hasbro
I agree, hasbro is amazing and the best toy company out there. Hard for mystic legions, mafex, shf to compete.
The Spider-Man PS5 figure is still the most Hasbro of all Hasbro things
@@suhtangwongall those brands are better in a lot ways they give you more accessories. Only negative is price and cq issues
Sarcasm is strong with this one… But I have to concur; Hasbro being Hasbro just to Hasbro.
Yes, please to see the figure room progress.
Thank you. I think a HUGE miss by Hasbro is making the chain link belt removable, and possibly having an extended out one as an accessory for him to hold in his hand.

They tried the Mythic Legions torso articulation, but those fans forgive because of all the other stuff they have
Yes, I'd like to see progress updates.
Yes i want to see the updates on the collection
Is there any reason why we haven’t been getting many accessories lately? Just bad budget allocation?
Greed
Yes! Love to see new collection/work place rooms!

Sure thing, I'd like to see how you manage your collections. That'll be cool.
I would love to see progress pictures, what you're doing with the basement sounds like what my dream basement looks like!
he looks like a backup dancer in that John Travolta's Saturday Night Fever.. LoL
I'd actually be interested in seeing progress pictures because I also just bought a house and I'm interested in renovation ideas
Progress stuff yes! Love the ongoings beyond just reviews.
Oh hell yes, I’ve been waiting for this review
Would be cool to see the progress / finished result of your workspace. Maybe it'll help inspire me for the potato one I've been working on!
Yes would absolutely enjoy seeing the progress on the basement
Hell yeah man! Please posts updates of the Studio in progress, I can’t wait for a future collection room tour as well
I’d check out some construction updates for sure👍
QOTD: I would love to see your progress updates, especially to see your work setup.
I would love to see progress on your new studio and collection displays
Yes I’d like to see progress videos of your new basement/studio
I would love to see updated on you're collector room plus it saturating to see how far it coming along
His face makes him look like a JoJo's bizarre adventure charecter lol
Yes, I would absolutely love to see Anthony’s custom basement.
"Canary Yellow" - definitely a customizer
A Marvel Legends collection ends up looking good when you have hundreds of characters but they should cost something in between $10 to $25 (regular to BAF size).
Thanks for the review Anthony.
As a whole, it looks like it belongs on a 10 year old’s birthday cake.
Show us progress pics of your workshop
Yea! Progress on the work space would be grat
I just be happy with a tour video when your all done setting things up
Definitely want to see the progress
Progress pics would be rad!
Im down for some progress updates leading into a full tour when done
Awwwww, Hasbro stopped caring about saving the world and went back to the clamshells 😂
Yes i would like to see the colection basement evolution
Yes, we wish for the basement updates.
Yeah, man, show some handy man work !! I'm curious how your shelves will turn out .I do a lot of construction for work
Unfortunately, i don't think I'm going to do built-ins. I might want to rearrange the setup at some point.
Would love to see what you’re doing with your basement. Man, I wish I had one in my house.
Heck yeah. Would love to see progress pics
I’d love to see basement progress pics. And those shelf setting streams you did a while back were a lot of fun. Maybe something similar when the time comes?
Absolutely yes i want to see your basement
I would like to see progress pics of your studio
Please record some of your basement studio, that would be interesting!
Imagine consistently pumping out so much crap that your company has it's separate scale for rating it's products: "for Hasbro it's a __/10"
Terrible figure and would be cool to see the progress of the basement. I just got the super missile accessory you made and it’s wonderful, I would love if you make more items for samus, maybe a beam accessory
glad you like it. when i have more time ill make more stuff
show us the man cave🔥
This dude a walkin flash bang
Toy room pictures are always appreciated 💪👍
I want to see your updates, would be cool!
I kinda like this figure but I can't understand why this guy can't get the same articulation scheme as the Ryu from Jada.
What's stopping Hasbro from doing that?

Hi @anthonyscustoms, great review as always. Btw, what do you think about Mondo X-Men figures? Will you review it?
The one ToyBiz made for the Mojo wave still looks better than this despite it being released over 15 years ago
Would love to see progression photos of the basement!
Review those new Sh Figuats!!!!
...And I have my popcorn ready for this review! 😀
Yeah, show progress shots of your new setup.
Congrats on your own house. Also got one a few months back. Sure, please share your progress. Always interesting how someone puts his collector room together.
And again a great (Hasbro) review. I love your honesty regarding their products.

Was waiting for this review😂😂
Yes to progress/updates
Hey Mike. How are things?
Things are cool my way! How are you and the family? Also, I don't know why I never see the emails when I get responses on RUclips until weeks later. 😂

Hey, thanks!
Make sure you have water backup on your home insurance.
I'm down for a tour video!
I still don’t know if “lets take a look at my package” is supposed to be an innuendo or not. Either way gets a chuckle from me every time.

Hasbro please don't hurt me I just want cool toys forrealz (=
Yea im down for some project images.
Hell yeah I do...what's going on with your own figures?
I would love to see progress pics
No angry head...are they smoking? Have they ever seen the cover of the comic?😂 We barely get any characters that are of color and when we do, they're mostly reused. It's really frustrating as a person of color.
I think everybody would have preferred the midnight son's version of Blade. Yes Anthony we definitely want to see your setup progress 👏🏾 Fwoosh articulated icons managed to figure out how to have solid articulation movement with a robe.
Hasbro was scared to make an "angry black man" headsculpt due to all the easily offended, cancel culture people that exist now.
i love home improvement crap! yeah, i'll watch the basement makeover. it's interesting to me.
i have always LOVED the design of Luke Cage.
He's like a 1970s disco wet dream for me, but yeah. This figure is a bit underwhelming.
Still, i appreciate this review.
oh @AnthonysCustoms are you getting those X-Men 97 figures? i'm considering it but i've been burned too many times on the X-Men cartoon stuff so far.
Show us the collection please
Still better than the Toybiz one
"Not that bad for HASBRO" ... that's a full throated endorsement right there
I think people are hating this figure beacuse of that huge gap on the arms
Are his legs two different colors/finishes? 😅
Have heard a lot of statements about Hasbro being lazy with this or that with figs, but this one, other than the actual sculpt, has lazy all over it (no boot cut, the armpits, etc).
Even though I want a retro Luke Cage in my collection, I'm going to have to pass on this at MSRP. I'll think about it when it hits under $15. It's too much of a lazy figure that they made.
I THINK THAT ITS GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’d like to see your progress :)
I cant belive hasbro is stealing the packaging from the naughty or nice santa figures for the newer marvel legends. So unoriginal.
Happy meal figure 😊
He should’ve had blue pants. When he wore black pants, the bottoms of his boots were black. Hasbro couldn’t even get the colors right smh.
Mhm
I don't like the realistic style of faces for comic characters
Yeah, I'd definitely like to see your basement progress. I'm doing a similar remodel for my figure collection and would love the inspiration.
