Scarlet Witch is our fault as fans! ToyBiz originally pulled it from the wave for quality issues before it was released. They announced she wasn't going to be released beforehand because of it. Fans lost their collective $#!+ and demanded she be released because she "deserved" a legend figure for so long. And so we got what we got. That one is on us.
It's funny how the best Chris Evans figure came out only a few months later. I love that Affleck Daredevil figure. The face was spot on. His articulation is the only thing at sucks. It's stiff just like Affleck so in a way it's accurate.
Overall, great life advice on the "Emma Frost" figure. I personally, stopped buying ML figures when Hasbro took over. I did break the streak with the recent "Cable" release.
I think it’s unfair for people to say that Spider Ham is one of the worst Marvel Legends. You almost have to grade on a curve because of the inherent limitations that come with doing a figure of a character like that. Considering what they had to work with, I think Hasbro did pretty good. You guys wanted Spider Ham? Well, you got him!
How do you think they make 3.75 inch scale figures? The joints are even smaller and they still (used to) get the job done. And they could have at least included him with another figure if there was gonna be a third of the plastic used on other figures
A lot of people would have all these toys in the list. And those people are the completists. I Got the ToyBiz is the Rogue action figure recently. I passed on the X-MEN box set because it was too expensive in toy shows in my area, And when it was still up on shelves, I prioritized the Fantastic 4 and Urban Legends box sets. I bought her from a FaceBook toy selling group instead. I was so excited to get her in the mail coz she is the last few figures that I haven't got from the ToyBiz era. Then after opening the package, the regret sunk in.
I watched the part on Rogue four times and laughed harder each time 😂😂😂! Her look was like an angry, bra-less grandma. And the flashes u added of her face was priceless!! Well done!!
Jeremy Brown I know that he doesn’t have knees, and he doesn’t pose well but once he goes down in price I’ll get him, but I totally won’t pay $20 for it, but I still think it’s a good figure. But I can understand why you don’t like him
Thanks for the video. Since this is the second video of the same idea, here are some ideas for future videos I would appreciate: PrestoMagix and Colorforms - I was a poor kid who sometimes chose one of these items which often came with full sets of characters over the purchase of another figure because a figure was just a figure, not a full playset with multiple single pose 2D figures. Zoids - coolest toys of the early 80's with tiny astronaut men pilots with fully sculpted psuedo-Battlestar Galactica Viper cockpits with motors, some of which didn't even need batteries. The Radio Shack Transformer knock-offs. I personally had Shockwave, which had a different name and was all grey, but much cheaper at the time. Empire Strikes Back Stormtrooper figures - there is a commercial from back in the day with Snowtroopers keeping watch from a guard shack constructed from a styrofoam cup... so of course I tried this and the cups available at the time were not big enough so they balanced on the head of the figures like a strange Rayden hat - was this a huge marketing scam to increase sales of white styrofoam cups at the time with a kickback to Kenner???
Toad. The history as I've been told is that Doom was going to be the wave 1 Toy Biz villain but they were sitting on a pile of Toads that had already been produced for a cancelled X-men line. As such, Toad is a misfit Legend in every sense and needs an updated figure in the worst way. Wave one! Ten points of articulation! A horror.
WTF no love for Spider-Ham? ps apart from the head sculpt which I don't even mind The Nomad Cap is a great figure! am I right in saying that they make these movie figs based on concept art way before anyone else sees anything?
I feel that the "Young Avengers" boxset Iron Lad should have been included. despite being included in a set with 3 other figure (2 of witch had a similar body type) Toybiz seemed to have an aneurysm when it cam to giving him functional joints. His shoulders and hips can barely move outward, his proportions make him look skeletal despite him wearing armor. and if you want working waist swivel/ab crunch then I have bad news for you. To me, it's ultimately a shame that this figure sucks because Iron Lad is my favorite member of that team
Yeah I suppose, he's got one of those faces. I think the main thing is that ML messed up the hair. Currently got my SHF in the mail so maybe my opinion will change when I get him in hand
Spider-ham spot should go to Paladin ,is the only other figures that shares his unsold numbers with Misty knigth (a 2015 figure you can still found at stores)
Spider Ham is a lovable obscure character, I’m not sure who would actually want this figure in their collection, forever. If it wasn’t for Spider Pig I don’t think many people would’ve known him. Hasbro knew he would’ve been a novelty figure that few would want so even with the lack of leg articulation, he would still sell to die hard fans. Come on if Rocket Raccoon and Maz are smaller in size with the same articulations as the six inch, Spider Ham could have the same. Nice details but McDonald’s level outcome.
This is a great list! ToyBiz female figs really are the worst. My only issue with Ham is that the webs aren't painted as they are on pretty much every other Spider-figure! If I was confident in having a steady hand, I'd paint it myself.
I had that Rogue. Let's just say the recent retro carded Rogue was welcome as a replacement. Same with replacing the shrunken-head White Queen with the one from the Hellfire Club set.
Missing from this list: Nemesis wave Tigra, the Astonishing X Men suit Beast, Series 8 Black Widow, and Series 1 Toad. All of them should have been on here if not at least in the honorable (or dishonorable) mention list.
4:00 im surprised even today that this captain headsculpt is from the same year of the infinity war thor head sculpt, to me, that thor’s head sculpt looks pretty nice
Wow, surprised Blizzard made it on here! He actually grew on me, considering that I only bought him to get a Hulkbuster part. My only complaint was that he didn't come with any ice effects. Otherwise, there's not much argument here! I tried to think of others I would add, but they all ended up being in other Spider-Man lines, and not Marvel Legends. They need to revisit some of those.
Not sure why so many people think IW Cap is worthy of top 10 for just the inaccurate head. The articulation itself is great, the size is markedly improved over the CW version, and he has the right bulk and the sculpt is otherwise excellent, missing glove and head not withstanding. Id say the CW and AOU versions of Cap are much worse, with a 100% inaccurate head, tiny arms, terrible moving legs, and being too small even when stood next to Bucky. Do note im not saying this is Dans fault, obviously. Id like to hear from people who think IW Cap is bad enough to be voted for.
You forgot to mention the fact that Cap was missing one of the two Wakanda shields he used in Infinity War. Hasbro has made 3.75" figures forever so why couldn't they make Spider-ham fully articulated?
I worked in a comic book store in the early 2000s, and these female Toybiz figures were there when I started, and they were there when management closed the store. For all I know, they're still there in the disused storage room. Sitting. Watching. Waiting.
Aarón Cordero it’s a nice mold. Not crazy about the blob of swirly gold plastic with next to no paint apps of a character nobody knows, cares about or asked for. Heck even if they wanted a solid colored easy/cheap to do cosmic character there were tons of better options. I get that they pay for the gorgeous detailed figures in each wave with a few cheap easy to produce ones that mostly use existing tooling, but even by those standards he feels lacking to me. (And that’s just my opinion, your mileage may vary). It feels a little ruder when he is the unwanted high margin figure needed for the last piece of Mantis. A gorgeous figure, but a bit of a meh feeling as a BAF. Yeah we know they are amortizing the cost of the new female tooling via BAF, but it’s still kinda lame, especially when they do itwice in a row for the same tooling (Mantis and Okoye)
Ha. That's one of the few figures I was actually excited to see in the last few odd years (and picked up quickly). I wanted nothing whatsoever to do with movie-fied Mantis. I think I actually called out the fact that, when that wave was announced, it was littered with characters I wanted, and a middle finger of a build-a-figure (given that any characters mutilated for the GotG movies are middle fingers to anyone who knew or liked those characters in the first place)
This vid is legit Magick (with a K). You guys continuing to aid us in pandemic lockdown. That Captain Howdy Rogue editing is genius. Nearly destroyed my laptop spitting wine at it. Thanks.
I don't understand why ToyBiz made such terrible female figures... I mean, the Storm Marvel Legends is oozing with attention to detail..... Also the Rogue figure on the last X-Men Line ToyBiz produced still looks great until this day..... My only issue with Hasbro is that they skip paint washes so figures always look "flat".... Also wish they would change to a more matte plastic so is not to shiny and cheap looking....
1) You could take the White Queen figure, add some zombie paint and you got a female zombie figure. Why are her joints all weird? Because she is a zombie. 2) Why is half of the rouge figure boobs? Are they trying to say something without actually saying it? 3) Why is is so hard to make female action figures? Have they improved the modes since then? Is it still a herculean task to make a proper female action figure?
I shaved down the cockatoo crest on the front of Cap's head with an Exacto knife. Then I put a dark brown wash on his hair and beard. Then I put a matte clearcoat on the head. He still doesn't look good, but he looks better than the SH Figuarts.
Definitely agree with you, Dan. I only bought SpiderHam so I could build Monster Venom and needed him for my Spiderverse display. The top two was no surprise there. Scarlet Witch and Emma Frost both are the worst ToyBiz Legends ever.
Lack of value for money (and a clear desire to troll Dan) were strong factors for Spider-Ham. I do still intend to try and track one down, but I'm hoping to trade/get a discount from somebody who just wants the BAF piece. Add me to the group that's wanted that figure for years, but I think it's fair to wish that he'd gotten better treatment. At least he got a pretty nice LOOKING figure, unlike good ol' Scarlet Mitch. She got a nice update; maybe one day, Spider-Ham will, too. Admittedly, that doesn't seem particularly likely, but maybe.
I would love to see a best of the dark days of Marvel Legends. So much of this list is early Hasbro efforts which are mostly terrible. Having said that Spiral and Wendigo are most haves to any true Legends collector.
The IW cap is a great figure. It's the first movie Cap since The Avengers that has been good. He has a good thickness to him and isn't scrawny like the AOU and CW figures. Sure the head isn't 100% but i think it really just comes down to the hair sculpt and color. I would honestly rank that IW Cap in my top 10 of the year for Marvel Legends.
Spider-Ham is one of the worst figures because Spider-Ham is stupid and pointless in every conceivable way, and that figure took a spot in that wave that could've gone to a more deserving character.
I thought the toybiz x23 was bad, then I remembered the figures on your list, and yeah, that white queen and wolverine were hideous, but x 23 could in there.
Spider-Ham should not be on this list, that's garbage! The figure is great in person. Highly articulated except the knees (which would probably have made the legs an ugly mess), Porkgrind head for Venom body, and allowed us to get Monster Venom because of his small size. Haters gonna hate, but I'm guessing 90% of the voters don't even own Porker or haven't held him in hand.
Yeah, that Emma Frost is a scrawny drag... Queen. Bucky should be right up there with her. Cap America is not that bad but there are sooooo many of them that I don't care. It is cool that you put so much thought in this list. Love your videos. Thanks bro.
Spider Ham is the Man !!!!! Well, the Pig. I can't believe the hate he got. It's simply stellar he received a figure.... Would I love to see a whole Spider Ham gallery of figures? (Goose Rider, Captain Americat , Hulk Bunny, etc.... ) Absolutely!!!!! Still, this is a good start. 👍🤓😎
I only have Blizzard, and only because I have more heroes than villains. Both Marvel and DC have this problem. So I try to buy every villain I can. Marvel actually does better in this area. Part of this may be because after Superman and Batman, most DC characters don't have a recognizable Rogues Gallery. Flash only has had 3 or 4 of his made, Hawkman and Atom have no known arch enemies. Aquaman only 2, Wonder Woman only Cheetah, Circe, and Ares, Green Arrow only Merlyn. Marvel, while also lacking in specific Rogues Gallarys has more recognizable villain 'teams' Brotherhood, Thunderbolts, Masters of Evil, etc. and also has put out more 'battle' packs with Kree/Skrull, AIM, I even have some Hand ninja. To make up for the heroes numerical superiority in both collections I add articulated robots, dinosaurs, and characters from other lines.
The Spider-Ham figure looks great from the front despite the articulation, but c'mon Dan. You have to admit they completely copped out on the back of the figure. They just copied the front of the costume and ignored the spider pig logo that belongs on his back. I don't think its top 10 bad, but it is pretty dissapointing.
I don't like Spider-Ham and even I can say the votes have to be kind of bias. The small figures suffer from minimal articulation, but their detail in sculpt and paint are all pretty good. I would say the slot belongs to 'all of the small figures.' Rocket from the first Guardians wave is just as bad, as are others.
I still refuse to agree that the Captain America figure from the Thanos wave is bad...even though I wish he had two shields and looked like Chris Evans. That would be neat.
I like your 3 rules for positive reviewing; but WHO LIKES THAT EMMA FROST?!?!? That figure looks like they Frankensteined a figure together and actually if they repainted her to be Zombie Emma Frost she would a great figure.
That IW Cap has a disappointing head sculpt that looks nothing like Chris Evans, but it’s better than the head previously used for Civil War, Age of Ultron, and the Winter Soldier, and with an entirely new sculpted body and better bulk than that old body mold this figure deserves more love smh There’s also too much hate on figures like Blizzard. Sure figures of more obscure “lower tier” villains aren’t as desirable as a Spider-Man or Wolverine, but that doesn’t mean they shouldn’t be made. That Blizzard ain’t a great figure, and Hasbro probably made him in less than a day, only really having to make a head that itself could be reused for the future. Again not great, but it’s exactly what it should be and there’s way worse and more hilariously bad figures out there.
I think there should be a distinction between worst (like Bucky and Emma) and most disappointing (Like Cap and Spider-Ham, apparently, which I don't I agree with).
I didnt know about Spider Ham until that wave, but instantly fell in love. Im an enthusiast for cute, ridiculous characters, so it was a no brainer. Does the leg issue suck? I guess, but at least the upper half is fine.
'Women? How do they work?'
Effing loooooooolz. 😂
J Hernandez lmfao
Idk
Scarlet Witch is our fault as fans! ToyBiz originally pulled it from the wave for quality issues before it was released. They announced she wasn't going to be released beforehand because of it.

Every toybiz female character looks like one of the Warrior Barbies from Small Soldiers
I forgot about those
Most Wanted: Spider Ham
Worst:Spider Ham
He didn't choose the list, it was voted by the fans
It was a joke
That's true power, right there.
Curtipazzi Store not a good one.
This is true, I bought the Venom wave and put the Spider ham for sale the next day without the BAF . It sold within a day.
Shout out to that Rogue figure's articulated butt cheeks... like what the hell was that?
Articulated Butt Cheeks ought to be the name of a band.
Toybiz philosophy: When in doubt, add more joints...
That sounds more sexy then it probably looks...
I still bought a Spider-Ham for my Spiderverse.
Overall, great life advice on the "Emma Frost" figure. I personally, stopped buying ML figures when Hasbro took over. I did break the streak with the recent "Cable" release.
Spider-Ham deserves more love!
BDogCarter
Spider-Ham deserves leg articulation
He deserves to be next to a side of eggs 😄
I think it’s unfair for people to say that Spider Ham is one of the worst Marvel Legends. You almost have to grade on a curve because of the inherent limitations that come with doing a figure of a character like that. Considering what they had to work with, I think Hasbro did pretty good. You guys wanted Spider Ham? Well, you got him!
Juan Sanchez GotGv2 Rocket is a much smaller figure and has almost full articulation.
Yeah, and his sculpt is terrible and has trouble standing. There is a fine line to draw when balancing form and function.
Wow that's....a very good point and a well "articulated" argument....you surprise me nipple boi.
You didn't mention sculpted nipples, fuck you, who are you and what have you done with our beloved Juan Sanchez!?
How do you think they make 3.75 inch scale figures? The joints are even smaller and they still (used to) get the job done. And they could have at least included him with another figure if there was gonna be a third of the plastic used on other figures
A lot of people would have all these toys in the list. And those people are the completists. I Got the ToyBiz is the Rogue action figure recently.

I watched the part on Rogue four times and laughed harder each time 😂😂😂! Her look was like an angry, bra-less grandma. And the flashes u added of her face was priceless!! Well done!!
the infinity war cap is Jay Bauman from Redlettermedia
That Rogue figure’s face reminds me of Jacquline Stallone, mother of Hollywood film star Frank Stallone.
NOOOOO, Not Ham! I don't care, I'm with you Dan, I love Spider-Ham and I WILL get one when I see him.
Spider-Ham is amazing. Haters gonna hate, potaters gonna potate
The Broken Baller yes, yes he is
All he needed was knees. But he doesn't and I don't like it. No knees is a disappointment
Jeremy Brown I know that he doesn’t have knees, and he doesn’t pose well but once he goes down in price I’ll get him, but I totally won’t pay $20 for it, but I still think it’s a good figure. But I can understand why you don’t like him
Spider-Ham is garbage. He's a pack-in statue Hasbro is trying to get away with charging $20 for.
Spiderham sucks. Facts speak for me.
Thanks for the video. Since this is the second video of the same idea, here are some ideas for future videos I would appreciate: PrestoMagix and Colorforms - I was a poor kid who sometimes chose one of these items which often came with full sets of characters over the purchase of another figure because a figure was just a figure, not a full playset with multiple single pose 2D figures. Zoids - coolest toys of the early 80's with tiny astronaut men pilots with fully sculpted psuedo-Battlestar Galactica Viper cockpits with motors, some of which didn't even need batteries. The Radio Shack Transformer knock-offs. I personally had Shockwave, which had a different name and was all grey, but much cheaper at the time. Empire Strikes Back Stormtrooper figures - there is a commercial from back in the day with Snowtroopers keeping watch from a guard shack constructed from a styrofoam cup... so of course I tried this and the cups available at the time were not big enough so they balanced on the head of the figures like a strange Rayden hat - was this a huge marketing scam to increase sales of white styrofoam cups at the time with a kickback to Kenner???
Binging some Toy Galaxy and some fresh content comes along! Nice! Great video!
That song during the spider-ham part make me want to walk down the road trying to hitch a ride
Toad. The history as I've been told is that Doom was going to be the wave 1 Toy Biz villain but they were sitting on a pile of Toads that had already been produced for a cancelled X-men line. As such, Toad is a misfit Legend in every sense and needs an updated figure in the worst way. Wave one! Ten points of articulation! A horror.
I was excited for finally even getting a Spider Ham figure. I'll take in hopes that a better version will come along.
whats up with rogue looking like the hunchback , that right hand had me laughing
Just noticed Mazinger Z on the top left of the shelf. Glad to see one of my childhood memories up on the wall.
He's a non-poseable plastic statue, but I still dig him.
WTF no love for Spider-Ham? ps apart from the head sculpt which I don't even mind The Nomad Cap is a great figure! am I right in saying that they make these movie figs based on concept art way before anyone else sees anything?
Please release a video on the best and/or worst Jean Grey/Phoenix figures!
I feel that the "Young Avengers" boxset Iron Lad should have been included. despite being included in a set with 3 other figure (2 of witch had a similar body type) Toybiz seemed to have an aneurysm when it cam to giving him functional joints. His shoulders and hips can barely move outward, his proportions make him look skeletal despite him wearing armor. and if you want working waist swivel/ab crunch then I have bad news for you. To me, it's ultimately a shame that this figure sucks because Iron Lad is my favorite member of that team
''There is no peaceful place for the eyes to rest'' :)
I love my Spider Ham figure though i do agree it would have been nice to have had a double pack with Captain Americat or maybe a Peter Porker figure.
OMG number 7? Gimme a break people. Compare that face sculpt to the SH Figuarts nightmare...
Stephen Reid I’m not saying the SHF is good, but it’s definitely better than the ML
Can't get with that. But I guess we all see Chris Evans differently. :)
People also wanted a shield that split apart like in the movie.
Yeah I suppose, he's got one of those faces. I think the main thing is that ML messed up the hair. Currently got my SHF in the mail so maybe my opinion will change when I get him in hand
Yeah, big bummer there. I just ordered some custom ones for the SHF that have a moving mechanism
Dan was pressed with the inclusion of spider ham.😂
Aw, was expecting a Reanimator gag during the Emma Frost list.
Spider-ham spot should go to Paladin ,is the only other figures that shares his unsold numbers with Misty knigth (a 2015 figure you can still found at stores)
Spider Ham is a lovable obscure character, I’m not sure who would actually want this figure in their collection, forever. If it wasn’t for Spider Pig I don’t think many people would’ve known him.

I had that Rogue. Let's just say the recent retro carded Rogue was welcome as a replacement. Same with replacing the shrunken-head White Queen with the one from the Hellfire Club set.
THIS IS *in my personal opinion* your funniest video on your channel. I was CRY laughing at the spiderham part!
Thanks Max! That means a lot coming from you!
Spider ham is awesome!!
Forget the haters. This is Spider-Ham 1.0...Like Rocket he’ll get a 2.0 figure. He’s gonna be a hero in the Spider-verse film.
Oh God. That Rogue toy. I'm so glad I waited for Hasbro's 2016 release! Yeesh!
Missing from this list: Nemesis wave Tigra, the Astonishing X Men suit Beast, Series 8 Black Widow, and Series 1 Toad. All of them should have been on here if not at least in the honorable (or dishonorable) mention list.
I like the captain America infinity war one
4:00 im surprised even today that this captain headsculpt is from the same year of the infinity war thor head sculpt, to me, that thor’s head sculpt looks pretty nice

Thank you for the eye-opener, and how grateful we should be to live in this age of legends!
#getpeterporkeroffthislist
Get him of this list? o_O
Spider ham sucks
That Rogue figure is so terrible! Looks like the designers used a model of a daytime stripper way past her prime.
I sold that Ultimate Wolverine as soon as I got the figure, new in-box, from ebay. I only got it for the Blob, BaF.
That Rogue and Emma frost figures are catastrophic lol
You forgot to mention the fact that Cap was missing one of the two Wakanda shields he used in Infinity War. Hasbro has made 3.75" figures forever so why couldn't they make Spider-ham fully articulated?
I worked in a comic book store in the early 2000s, and these female Toybiz figures were there when I started, and they were there when management closed the store. For all I know, they're still there in the disused storage room. Sitting. Watching. Waiting.
I wonder how Ex Nihilio failed to make the list?
Ex Nihilo is actually a nice figure, problem is nobody asked for it, lol.
Aarón Cordero it’s a nice mold. Not crazy about the blob of swirly gold plastic with next to no paint apps of a character nobody knows, cares about or asked for. Heck even if they wanted a solid colored easy/cheap to do cosmic character there were tons of better options.

Yeah we know they are amortizing the cost of the new female tooling via BAF, but it’s still kinda lame, especially when they do itwice in a row for the same tooling (Mantis and Okoye)
Andrew Taylor Ex Nihilio is a pretty cool character. You definitely need to read Jonathan Hickmann’s run on Avengers.
Ha. That's one of the few figures I was actually excited to see in the last few odd years (and picked up quickly). I wanted nothing whatsoever to do with movie-fied Mantis.
I think I actually called out the fact that, when that wave was announced, it was littered with characters I wanted, and a middle finger of a build-a-figure (given that any characters mutilated for the GotG movies are middle fingers to anyone who knew or liked those characters in the first place)
This vid is legit Magick (with a K). You guys continuing to aid us in pandemic lockdown. That Captain Howdy Rogue editing is genius. Nearly destroyed my laptop spitting wine at it. Thanks.
Rouge should have been number one!
Why? This is about action figures, not makeup.
Alan David Doane Ha-ha! I got it!
I don't understand why ToyBiz made such terrible female figures... I mean, the Storm Marvel Legends is oozing with attention to detail..... Also the Rogue figure on the last X-Men Line ToyBiz produced still looks great until this day..... My only issue with Hasbro is that they skip paint washes so figures always look "flat".... Also wish they would change to a more matte plastic so is not to shiny and cheap looking....
1) You could take the White Queen figure, add some zombie paint and you got a female zombie figure. Why are her joints all weird? Because she is a zombie.
2) Why is half of the rouge figure boobs? Are they trying to say something without actually saying it?
3) Why is is so hard to make female action figures? Have they improved the modes since then? Is it still a herculean task to make a proper female action figure?
I'd love to see you guys to a 10 Best & 10 Worst Toy Galaxy Videos review. I think that'd be good for a laugh?
Yeah I think we could do best... no reason to do worst. I'd rather people not get another look at those.
I shaved down the cockatoo crest on the front of Cap's head with an Exacto knife. Then I put a dark brown wash on his hair and beard. Then I put a matte clearcoat on the head. He still doesn't look good, but he looks better than the SH Figuarts.
#Redemption4SpiderHam
Nice video as always Dan and Greg! I didnt know there was a Brood Queen BAF, was it any good?
LOL! "Women... How do they work?!"
Definitely agree with you, Dan. I only bought SpiderHam so I could build Monster Venom and needed him for my Spiderverse display. The top two was no surprise there. Scarlet Witch and Emma Frost both are the worst ToyBiz Legends ever.
I do not agree with Ham's inclusion on this list. I was compelled to perform the video.
Lack of value for money (and a clear desire to troll Dan) were strong factors for Spider-Ham. I do still intend to try and track one down, but I'm hoping to trade/get a discount from somebody who just wants the BAF piece. Add me to the group that's wanted that figure for years, but I think it's fair to wish that he'd gotten better treatment. At least he got a pretty nice LOOKING figure, unlike good ol' Scarlet Mitch. She got a nice update; maybe one day, Spider-Ham will, too. Admittedly, that doesn't seem particularly likely, but maybe.
Maybe he'll get re-released articulated from the waist down and non-articulated from the waist up. Then we can just swap the parts.
Bam! Sold! Best $40 I ever spent on one fully articulated and one very poorly articulated figure.
Great review, was that a marvel select rogue or a marvel legend??
Ice man from the box set
Devon Palmer or just the whole boxset
I would love to see a best of the dark days of Marvel Legends. So much of this list is early Hasbro efforts which are mostly terrible. Having said that Spiral and Wendigo are most haves to any true Legends collector.
Spider Ham seems more like an Imaginext figure than a Marvel Legends one.
The IW cap is a great figure. It's the first movie Cap since The Avengers that has been good. He has a good thickness to him and isn't scrawny like the AOU and CW figures. Sure the head isn't 100% but i think it really just comes down to the hair sculpt and color. I would honestly rank that IW Cap in my top 10 of the year for Marvel Legends.
Spider-Ham is one of the worst figures because Spider-Ham is stupid and pointless in every conceivable way, and that figure took a spot in that wave that could've gone to a more deserving character.
I thought the toybiz x23 was bad, then I remembered the figures on your list, and yeah, that white queen and wolverine were hideous, but x 23 could in there.
I call shenanigans on Spider-Ham. That figure is AMAZING.
That Daredevil is a dead ringer for Casey Affleck, which is terrible considering it's supposed to be Ben.
Yeah infinity war just did “well” at the box office dan. 😂
Thanks a lot! That Rouge segment is going to give me nightmares!
I just clicked the link seeing Spider Ham in thumbnail of Toy Galaxy's worst figures list! :P
"There is no peaceful place for the eye to rest."
I literally LoL'ed over here! 😂
Absolutely hilarious. Nothing like seeing terrible design features to give yah a laugh! :)
Spider-Ham should not be on this list, that's garbage! The figure is great in person. Highly articulated except the knees (which would probably have made the legs an ugly mess), Porkgrind head for Venom body, and allowed us to get Monster Venom because of his small size.
Haters gonna hate, but I'm guessing 90% of the voters don't even own Porker or haven't held him in hand.
Rogue looks like she just walked out of Golden Corral and has to take a shit😂 great video
Have you talked about best/worst/okayest role play toys? You have a lot of great role play stuff in the background there.
Nice work Dan! Love the humour in your videos.
Okay! Okay! Your videos are awesome. I subscribed!
Yeah, that Emma Frost is a scrawny drag... Queen. Bucky should be right up there with her. Cap America is not that bad but there are sooooo many of them that I don't care. It is cool that you put so much thought in this list. Love your videos. Thanks bro.
I still love blizzard... He's one of my favorite figures of 2015
such a nice video, and the list is just right, but i would have put spiderham in numb. 1
please make this list with only toy biz figures
Spider Ham is the Man !!!!! Well, the Pig. I can't believe the hate he got. It's simply stellar he received a figure.... Would I love to see a whole Spider Ham gallery of figures? (Goose Rider, Captain Americat , Hulk Bunny, etc.... ) Absolutely!!!!! Still, this is a good start. 👍🤓😎
I only have Blizzard, and only because I have more heroes than villains. Both Marvel and DC have this problem. So I try to buy every villain I can. Marvel actually does better in this area. Part of this may be because after Superman and Batman, most DC characters don't have a recognizable Rogues Gallery. Flash only has had 3 or 4 of his made, Hawkman and Atom have no known arch enemies. Aquaman only 2, Wonder Woman only Cheetah, Circe, and Ares, Green Arrow only Merlyn. Marvel, while also lacking in specific Rogues Gallarys has more recognizable villain 'teams' Brotherhood, Thunderbolts, Masters of Evil, etc. and also has put out more 'battle' packs with Kree/Skrull, AIM, I even have some Hand ninja. To make up for the heroes numerical superiority in both collections I add articulated robots, dinosaurs, and characters from other lines.
The Spider-Ham figure looks great from the front despite the articulation, but c'mon Dan. You have to admit they completely copped out on the back of the figure. They just copied the front of the costume and ignored the spider pig logo that belongs on his back. I don't think its top 10 bad, but it is pretty dissapointing.
I like that Spider-Ham, but I am not going to pay anything more than maybe $5.00 give or take. Full price is outta the question
Poor Hulk, everybody’s trying to bust him! Great review as always
I feel personally attacked that Spider-Ham was even considered to be on the list
Hey, I think toybiz rogue is pretty good, just not a great face sculpt. Also surprised there was no BTLD Spider-Man.
I don't like Spider-Ham and even I can say the votes have to be kind of bias. The small figures suffer from minimal articulation, but their detail in sculpt and paint are all pretty good. I would say the slot belongs to 'all of the small figures.' Rocket from the first Guardians wave is just as bad, as are others.
I still refuse to agree that the Captain America figure from the Thanos wave is bad...even though I wish he had two shields and looked like Chris Evans. That would be neat.
Rogue looks like Mrs Peacock from The Movie Clue, it's the terrible eyeliner that brings it out.
I like your 3 rules for positive reviewing; but WHO LIKES THAT EMMA FROST?!?!? That figure looks like they Frankensteined a figure together and actually if they repainted her to be Zombie Emma Frost she would a great figure.
That IW Cap has a disappointing head sculpt that looks nothing like Chris Evans, but it’s better than the head previously used for Civil War, Age of Ultron, and the Winter Soldier, and with an entirely new sculpted body and better bulk than that old body mold this figure deserves more love smh
There’s also too much hate on figures like Blizzard. Sure figures of more obscure “lower tier” villains aren’t as desirable as a Spider-Man or Wolverine, but that doesn’t mean they shouldn’t be made. That Blizzard ain’t a great figure, and Hasbro probably made him in less than a day, only really having to make a head that itself could be reused for the future. Again not great, but it’s exactly what it should be and there’s way worse and more hilariously bad figures out there.
I think there should be a distinction between worst (like Bucky and Emma) and most disappointing (Like Cap and Spider-Ham, apparently, which I don't I agree with).
I still have that Daredevil and I loved it
(I have it too).
I grew up playing with him and still have him also.
I didnt know about Spider Ham until that wave, but instantly fell in love. Im an enthusiast for cute, ridiculous characters, so it was a no brainer. Does the leg issue suck? I guess, but at least the upper half is fine.
I feel the same way.
