- Can Hasbro raise the price of a figure like this to $28 and be able to execute it well enough to keep collectors happy? Will those with a discerning eye be left feeling low while fanboys clamor for more?

If people don't want criticism they should just watch the Hasbro promo videos. Those are nothing but positivity and they'll not say one bad thing about their own product. There you go. But if you watch a reviewer who isn't on Hasbro's payroll... they're going to have an opinion! I'd much rather know about faults than about the good stuff... the good stuff I can get from any promotional material out there.
@Matt Drake ruclips.net/video/cdsLGsmHYDU/видео.html
If Anthony doesn't want our Criticisms he should stop reviewing a toy line he clearly dislikes. Make no mistake about it Anthony knows that if he stopped reviewing Marvel Legends his viewership would probably drop by 50%. Anyone who has been collecting Marvel Legends can see that these are the same molds as the ones they used prior. Why would you expect them to be different than what they are shown to be in the PROMOS?

@Matt Drake he always goes full Anthony on DC Multiverse and marvel Legends. The cheapest of all adult collectibles.
@@sirmustardofhousemayonnais9907 oh for sure, his integrity is all based on how he's feeling that day. Same thing with the wolverine figure. an extra $4 dollars made him hate the figure.... lol. It's either that or a shitty mafex version for $100.00
not gonna lie, i would rather like some improved versions of the main guys in the x-men cartoon without the cel shading
It's hilarious how Hasbro is jacking up all their prices substantially like people magically started making more money (and they're making the least they ever have.) And in return, we get less accessories and worse and worse QC. Jazwares came out of nowhere and started making Halo figures that look amazing compared to Hasbro, and even McFarlane looks great compared to them now, and their figures are mostly statues.
Strongly considering canceling all my Spidey stuff.
When I look at other lines, being a marvel legends guy, I'm always surprised at what other lines can do with a $20 price point which just shows you how low the bar is for Marvel Legends. Even figuarts manages to lower their price to $35 and still make amazing figures.
I only recently started getting into S.H.Figuarts, and while they're not immune to QC problems, I feel like they just slid a bit under the radar, and the rest of the figure makes up for it.
With Hasbro, most of their figures are nowhere near strong enough for me to overlook the QC issues, even at their low (but still not cheap, despite what some insist) price point. It's gotten to the point that the main thing I buy from them that isn't Transformers... is army builders. Because at least with those, the QC issues won't be as noticeable when I have like 6 Hydra troopers. It doesn't excuse it at all, but that's the main way I can enjoy Marvel Legends or Lightning Collection... by putting them next to much, much better figures.
@@5150Figures without knowing how much of a legends figure's budget goes to the Marvel license, I don't think that's a fair comp. Figuarts doesn't have $35 marvel figures that I'm aware of.
I absolutely agree that Legends have stopped being worth the price for probably 99% of the releases, but I don't think it's necessary to make potentially poor comparisons to validate that argument.
True, but marvel legends, specifically the 20th anniv figures are creeping up on that $35 mark. And even the deluxe figures are pretty close. While figuarts has some $35 dragon ball figures. You don't need to have a figure of the same character from different lines to be able to compare them.
I have become very selective with marvel legends because of those reasons. We need more people like Anthony being honest in their reviews and holding hasbro to a higher standard.
one thing for sure, your criticism do save people from wasting these effortless figures and i'm thankful that toy reviewer like you exist. always love to see the reviews you made and get informed about the pros and cons of a figure.
I love Anthony's critical edge. It's why I watch this channel. Because you know that on the rare occasions when he does give something a glowing review, that it actually deserves it.
Much respect to you, Anthony. You are one of the few (if not the only one) reviewers still uploading actual reviews instead of just praising any new release from Hasbro.
I'd really like an X-Men line of figures without the cel shading and with headsculpts that actually look like the character designs from the cartoon.
Maybe I'm wrong but I feel like Hasbro is a bigger company than NECA, no? Then they definitely should be doing a better job than them.
I don't really see the point of this line. You can't even see the figures inside the boxes, NECA has their own VHS styled boxes but theirs have a window to see the figures.
This line just feels so half-assed.
Yeah. Hasbro is gigantic compared to neca
Seeing as I have some of the core members of the 90s X-Men cartoon roster without cel shading, I'd prefer just reissues with better paint and no cel shading. It's pretty clear Hasbro hasn't nailed it like NECA has.
As far as your critique, I love that there's at least one critic out there who has the balls to say what he thinks and remain objective. You've saved me from buying so many duds over the years, and yes there's times where I don't agree (I personally love the McFarlane Dark Knight Returns Batman after I modded him) but one driving force in my purchases, especially now with price hikes galore, is if you gave it a shining review or at least said it's worth the money. So many reviewers (Not naming names) have become shills who turn a blind eye to the negatives, if something stinks, speak up and hold the companies accountable, even/especially if you're buddy-buddy with the design team.
Hasbro thinks they can put out minimum effort figures and think the rose tinted glasses of nostalgia will gloss over the flaws of these overpriced pieces. The packaging is dope, there's no question, but I don't want to spend almost $40 on a box with a halfassed figure. When your packaging is better than the actual product you're trying to sell, I'm sorry but that says a lot about where your priorities lie.
I'm with you, I wanted these figures to be good, I was rooting for them to be decent replacements for overpriced reseller figures, but I just don't see the value here. Ditch the cel-shading, clearly it's not their strong suit, reissue the figures on retro cards or keep the VHS gimmick if they're gung ho on the windowless gimmick, I just want a decent 90s X-Men roster without any BS from Hasbro or spending entirely too much on trash.
Completely agree. There are so many You Tube reviewers I used to enjoy and respect that I can’t even watch now.
@@tomfin-wo5vc There's some few I do still watch since I started collecting 6-7 years ago, Anthony's one of them. I used to love Glenn Webb before his untimely passing, he had a jolly attitude towards collecting, he would have loved the offerings from the 80 years line, but he wasn't afraid to call bullshit when it was warranted (Please look up his review on the old, crappy X-Men TRU First Appearance box set, that's the angriest I ever saw the dude get)
I like that you don’t kiss Hasbro’s ass for subpar figures like certain reviewers tend to do. You know the ones who get review samples right after figures are announced.
That was a real good rant at the end! I couldn’t agree more.
I’m grateful for the criticism because you can only buy so much these days and at the price point I want to feel like I’m getting my money’s worth.
Hasbro has gotten complacent with the Marvel Legends line. New pinless joints alone are not enough, they need a complete overhaul. On the other hand, their Fortnite Victory Royale Series is pretty stellar IMO. Great sculpt and engineering. You should review their Midas Rex figure, I don't think you'll be disappointed.
Anthony's not being negative, u guys just can't take the truth. He's a reviewer, he's suppose to be honest and not lie about the figures. Best reviewer ever.
I agree that I would rather they didn’t “cell shade” these figures and charge us $5 less.
Don't let others change your critical review style, so far you are the best reviewer I have watched when it comes to being objective and anatomic correct
Thank you for being honest. Never lose that. Super7 released Thundercats Ultimates wave 2 after two years delay with a lot of flaws and QC issues. Many people complained and they were attacked as well. Many of them were blocked by community social media accounts. “Toy reviewers” that got early samples never pointed out the flaws, etc. That was totally sick.
Crazy how different the teams at Hasbro are for the various Toylines. Transformers did this same idea a couple years ago on Optimus and Megatron and it looked leagues better. Not only that but they consistently put out what fans want and you can always find them in stores.
I love your reviews and channel. Your objectivity is necessary in this community and you’re absolutely right in your analysis. They’ve raised the prices but quality is the same. I’m thinking Hasbro thinks we’re more flexible to price increases than we actually are and I’m holding them accountable by not buying these and other figures that don’t deserve the price they’re sold at. McFarlane figures, with the issues they have, are still $20. And most of them are new sculpts, AND they’re 7” figures which means more plastic. Hasbro HAS to do better
I would actually go as far as saying the quality is worse and that's not in relation to the price increasing. The QC is worse, paint seems to be applied less frequently and the accessories or quality of them is less on average than it was.
Seeing how many of their newer releases Hasbro just put at 40% off, I'm hoping they're seeing people aren't as willing as they thought.
Zup Anthony, yes, you are here to do a simple job, to give us your expertise on action figures, I tune in every time expecting no more than your honest opinion, now although it’s true companies are gonna do whatever they want, like not listening to their costumers, (like Todd McFarlane”s for ie) I as a viewer of this channel learn a lot so I can make decisions, not just as a collector, but more so of a well informed collector, therefore I can spend my hard earned money wisely, (now that’s priceless)
Many times I haven’t been interested in a particular action figure, for whatever reason, but watching your exploration of it, the full criticism of it, I appreciate the workmanship of it and change my mind, thank you very much for your efforts, keep those videos coming, and please Anthony, please....in the meantime...keep collecting 😎👍🏼
Yes I want these X men figures without the cell shading. And Anthony there's more people that appreciate your honest reviews than those who don't. Hasbro needs to be called out, especially when they are increasing the pricepoint.
You're not negative at all. You are definitely keeping it real, and saying out loud what everyone is thinking or scared to say.
I would have rather had a cartoon correct cartoon(no shsde) paint job, and the VH1 box. They should've been correct sculps @ $22.99 if they wanna raise prices. And she could've had like a plasma type glittery ball extra hands
If you go to another toy review Channel(I’m not going to said names but everybody knows, those who get reveals ) they will say that this figures are amazing one of the best, ridiculous thanks for another honest review man you are the only one that I trust
If someone wanted a full 90s X-Men collection and missed out on the other releases, I can see 'em buying these instead of buying from a resalers.
Ive seen people taking off the cel shading off. Id do that if i needed anyone… maybe.
Your level of honesty really makes me question a lot of those other reviewers who constantly praise Hasbro for EVERY release they put out. It's like they're so invested in the line/company that they fail recognize the blatantly apparent flaws of any of these figures. The higher price point and lack of a window has all but killed collecting these for me now-a-days. Just sad honesty. This hobby used to be fun, but now all these companies care about is making more money with less effort. On the bright side, it's made cherry picking waaaaay easier.
I didn't have the original release, so I was missing her. I'll probably try to remove the cel shading, and put her with the rest.
I like the Wolverine more than you did, but I cancelled the orders I had for the other shaded ones because I completely agree they're not worth the price.
If people are saying you're being too critical, without offering valid examples of why they think that, you're probably doing something right. You're making people at least consider their opinions on it.
I watch your reviews because they aren't product showcases, there are other, "reviewers", that offer that, if affirmation of all their purchases is what the viewer wants.
That's why I literally only taking Anthony's advice. He's honest and doesn't bs about the figures. I love his approach to reviews. I want to know all the bad things a figure has to know if it's worth buying or not. I hate when these reviewers don't want to say negative things about a figure.
@@jcam320 I agree. They're fine if you want to see what something looks like, but that's why I call them showcases, vs reviews. I don't know if those people are worried about pissing off their audience, the companies, or if they just have really low standards/expectations, but I generally consider their opinions useless.
@@TheMattTrakker yeah you're right about calling them showcases. A lot of times I'm sure they don't want to piss off the companies so they can keep getting figures sent to them to review
Im here cuz anthony is honest on his opinions. Hasbeo is a million dollar company and now with the unjustified price hikes they should be putting more care into their product. As consumers we need to be critical, im not saying be an asshole to the company, but definitely and demand a good product and commend them when they have good products, other wise we're just wasting our hard earned cash. Keep up the great and honest reviews, im here for them and have helped me in making better buying decisions.
A wave (or even a box set) of re-released Jim Lee-style X-Men characters would be so much more appreciated than this garbage. I picked up Wolverine (out of compulsion) and Sinister (because I don’t have him and the previous release is crazy money).
Regarding haters, they gonna hate. You’re one of the last bastions of opposition to these companies from the perspective of the consumer. More than any other reviewer on RUclips you have helped me to not only ensure I buy stuff I’m happy with but also be able to spot for myself what good looks like and you will always have my support and gratitude for that, sir.
Looks like the designers and/or workers at the manufacturer plant(s) didn't watch 80s/90s cartoons as a kid, went to *find* those cartons for production research & confused commercials as part of the animated shows.
Because I *swear* those arm swirls were part of "Trix are for Kids" *and* "Where's Me Lucky Charms" skits.
🤣
Well Anthony u asked for vertical hands, now u got them lol. Now jubilee can shake hands, do a princess wave oh and best of all she can be the Dj at the school parties, the vertical hand will allow Jubilee to scratch records on the turn tables! Plus… now she can shred on a guitar, better drumming form and if she singing, she can hold the mic more realistically haha!.
I totally agree with your point, that's the reason why we watch your videos Anthony. Hasbro should listen to your comments. o
Do u think the closed boxes is a tactic for them to sell underwhelming figures. From what I seen so far, Hasbro is just throwing extra stuff in the boxes to justify the price hike. With transformers their putting stuff in with the figure that aren’t even revenant to that figure.
7:05 "unless you're gonna look at your figure from really far away all the time" haha that's so sadly true that it's funny. It really applies to several of the recent releases and I think it's okay to say these things.
Thanks for standing up for the consumer
These figures were a cool idea. However the execution is just not up to par for an increased price point. This probably only would have worked at a DECREASED price point!
As someone who builds model kits more than collect action figures (I only buy figures of characters I like), I don't get the constant defense for Hasbro. I don't count rivets, but if someone points out the excess or lack of nuts/rivets on vehicle models, then that's the model manufacturers fault and not the person pointing it out
I'd love a version of these figures without cell shading. Mostly because the cell shading on these figures isn't good. The colours don't work and, in Jubilee's case, the "shading" doesn't really make sense? Give me figures without it, and if I really wanted cell shading for whatever reason, I'll get someone to do it WELL. Or I can enjoy the figure as is in animation colours or whatever, if they're so deadset on keeping them cartoon-based.
Lady Jaye from the GI joe line has the beat female body Hasbro has ever done on a 1:12 figure. So we know they can do pin less and double jointed for these female figures. I'm just playing catch up with having just started collecting legends.
Not negative, literally couldn't agree more here. Cancelled my pre orders the second we saw actual pics
Thank you for your service. These figs are just crap for what they are charging. Jubilee looks like someone has dropped mustard all over her and its dripping down her arms. LOL
In some way, we're living in an era of obscurantism toy collecting...
Welcome to the little dark edge!!
Again dude you are not wrong, glad you are pointing this since Hasbro is doing a lousy job with this line which suppose to match or go toe to toe with Neca's TMNT yet they don't care because they just want a quick buck.
If you think these are bad wait for Jean because she doesn't look anything like the cartoon, they went lazy with that on a whole different level and still have the nerve to say it's based on the cartoon
I'm good with all the 90's X-Men singles that I have before these. The shading was not necessary because they had shading in the cartoon because they wanted to make it like the comics
This figure IMO is only tolerable at best.
At least the water splotches are on the molded parts of the figure so I'd imagine if someone were to remove the "shading:, then it might not look too bad. They also seem to sculpt the jacket collar higher up, which is fine. The face also looks pretty good in general. With that said:
*Didn't she wear a turtle neck in the animated series? The tunic shirt she has on is from the comics, but in the show, she had a turtle neck. So technically this can't be considered a definite version of the 90s Animated Jubilee.
*Weird choice for the effect part. The same effect part for Scarlet Witch and Magneto won't work for a character that shoots sparkles from her hands. It doesn't work it looks off-putting.
*Why does she have a verticle hinge? She doesn't use any weapons so what's the purpose of that joint? I guess if you want to pose her taking off her shades, sure but I doubt most people will pose her like that.
*Wished we had another head with a different expression, not the same head with the same hair sculpt as the other Jubilee figure.
I'm hoping MAFEX comes out with a better-looking Jubilee but I don't think that'll be anytime soon.
.
Cell shading is great if done right. Hasbro doesn't seem to good with Cell shading. These figures are disappointing
Always good to see your thoughts on these new legends. They really are hit or miss. Also are ya gonna review the mafex the new batman adventures batman? It's a really great figure that i think you'd love mate!
I'm holding out for a btas version
BEST TOY REVIEWER ON RUclips PERIOD. When im on the fence on a fig. I wait for your review. Youve saved me hundred of dollars on shitty figs. Every toy ive bought and regret I watch your video afterwards and you tell me how garbage it was. I wish i found your vids sooner man
black series improved because star wars fans are indeed picky, and we didn't buy into most the episodes 7,8,9 figures
so hasbro NEEDED to win us back
but when most marvel fans buy every single ugly spiderman figures with no improvement for over 10 years, hasbro won't give a shit.
Your critiques aren’t really up for debate since they’re not based on your opinion or personal preferences. Hopefully the tides turn and consumers start demanding higher quality or everything is going to be garbage eventually. Thanks for staying true and honest. I’ll never cheer on a shill or defend a company for making a shoddy product just because I want to like it. -Love always, your #1 fan
Lmao. When I want to feel good about a figure I go to another reviewer. But when I want the TRUTH about a figure i gotta come to Anthony!!
Id rather have them without the paint. Ugh. Im not feeling these. 😂 I *Knew* these were gonna be trash. Thanks for the honest review always. Never change.
And we love objective and subjective criticism Anthony. If it wasn't for you every figure would be awesome whether it is or not. I'm sure every figure has it's flaws.💯 Thank you kindly for your videos. PS Yes this is a previous video that I'm commenting on but hey I haven't seen this particular review yet and I am in the market for this character. Keep em coming sir.
You should review the Soul Crusher figure from the spawn line, I think it’s a pretty dope figure. Ninja spawn and Haunt too.
I will be reviewing at least some of those
Soul Crusher is an underrated figure. Excellent paint apps and a real shelf presence.
Totally agreed with your objectivity Anthony
I love ppl who bash McFarlane at every turn, and yes... whilst there are QC issues with some McFarlane figures, at least we get uniquely sculpted figures and they're still $20 each.
I feel like Hasbro is getting too confident with some of these figure releases. As it stands, I canceled my pre-orders for these cell shaded X-Men figures. For $27.99, I am not expecting Japan quality, but I do expect quality. Going forward it will be coming down to character uniqueness, like... has it been made before? For example, the 1970's Japanese TV Show Spider-Man figure that went up for pre-order. Or... they actually did something extra or cool to somewhat (emphasis on somewhat) justify the pricing. Like the upcoming Venom vs Knull 2pk. Yeah, they're using the movie Venom body for that release, but I do like that body (feet withstanding) and they're giving us new head sculpts and dragon wings... plus Knull, who appears to have been given effort head to toe.
My thoughts on Hasbro QC would require 2 more paragraphs, so I'll leave it here.
That paint match for the forearms is atrocious… it didn’t even click with me that they were her forearms until you mentioned it
Thank you for your Honesty Anthony!
Thank you for being objective
I honestly think they'll re release these without the packaging and weird paint.
Even before seeing any review videos I said "pass" on this JUBILEE. I was lucky to get the CALIBAN BAF version and I'm sticking with her. These figures feed off people's nostalgia for the animated series and I respect that, but the $28 is mostly being paid towards the packaging and the impression that you're getting something really cool from HASBRO. I've said it before and I'll say it again, the GI JOE CLASSIFIED figures are a step above the Marvel Legends line IMO based off the QC.
What’s ur opinion on Star Wars black series figures they are pretty nicely detailed but not as articulated as ML
It’s a real shame so many people will just buy these overpriced crappy figures so Hasbro never has to get better
So they want you to pay $30 for poorly painted re-issue figure. No thanks, luckily I found the original versionfor 19. Thanks for helping me save my money
Yes
I would be okay with the cellshading if it would actually be available to me in my country. I really want a Jubilee figure :/.
I am glad however I am not missing a really good figure I guess, I just hope they reissue these figures without exclusivity, without the shading.
Yep. That is an easy pass for me too.
I definitely don't think you're negative. If anything I think you still went pretty easy on the figure by your rating of it. The only reason I could see anyone getting this is if they missed out on previous figures of Jubilee.
Anthony is just saying what the others are thinking.
i like your honesty.
I agree 100% with you.
I love this review, people love to just accept mediocrity and they shouldn’t. Hasbro is dropping the ball on Legends.
That packaging is not about the environment at all! You could almost expect the figure to look sloppy or a bit warped even before we get them. Notice how the retro lines from a few years ago with the clam packing looked campared to the recent figures.
I really like this figure and want this figure, just without the cell shade. Sure I can simply repaint it but I shouldn’t.
I came here so i could get an honest review on this fig. And i certainly did and this helped a lot. 🍻🍻🍻🤝
You're speaking the truth! I checked out of marvel Legends a few years ago and every time I see one of your videos it reinforces that made the right decision.
Dammit, just recently bought this figure.. Lol
Oh my, you are being honest here and I so appreciate it. Hasbro has been complacent. This Jubilee is nowhere near the Jubilee from TAS. We just bought it because we love the cartoon so much. Compare this to Mondo's own Jubilee, this is garbage. Sorry, Hasbro. The worst they every made was Jean Grey from the VHS line.
Honestly I think his rant is justified because of the wonky qc that's going on with these figures
i rarely buy marvel legends these days. these “new” x-men figures just further reinforce my decision to stop throwing my money away to hasbro. once in a while they’ll come out with a great figure and i’ll buy it. but i just can’t settle for garbage anymore. qc has been on the decline, while the prices for these mediocre pieces of plastic are going up. not worth it anymore. they need to seriously reevaluate everything they’re doing right now and find a solution. better yet, why don’t they just listen to you? i’ve been saying it for years, “hasbro needs to listen to anthony”. unfortunately it seems they’re just doing the opposite of any constructive criticism given to them. oh hasbro, why?
No goofy cel shaded paint please. These are terrible, and they aren’t actually cel shaded. It’s just a moderately unidimensional shade that barely works from one perspective.
Borderlands cosplay is the gold standard for cel shading. They are supposed to look like they just jumped out off of the page or the screen.
They really are conning the fans.
Has to be noted that it isn't just Hasbro doing this either.
Within one company, HASBRO, you have many different toy lines. Compare a relatively decent GI JOE figure to a MARVEL LEGENDS, and you'll see such a big difference in QC, in care, in what you get in the box....and both lines are from the same company.
McFarlane has dropped the ball, too. Child like eccessories, which look as if they have been pillaged from a toy line for eight year olds, some odd joints, and various other issues that were not apparent 20 odd years ago when they were, for example, doing the Tortured Souls line, which overall were awesome, even with limited articulation.
Even the Tech companies are giving their consumers less, and charging more, which shows a concerted decision to put less into the product, but having the cheek to raise prices.
Are we seeing a pattern, yet?
Just....SIGH!
I'm quite happy to stick with my expectations, stay with my idea of what I expect to get for my money and wait till a figure actually impresses me (NECA for the win there, which should NOT be a surprise).
If we stop letting ourselves being conned, and deprive them of OUR money, they'll have to step up their game and do decent figures, guys.
They are extracting the urine.
These figures would immediately be better without the trash "cell shading" we see here. There are sculpt issues with all of them sure, but the "paint just" makes it insulting.
Mcfarlane may have thier head up thier ass and do stupid stuff, but at least they try. Hasbro pisses me off more and more, especially as they get rights to more and more things, like Power Rangers and Ghostbusters.
To me the shading they’re using looks like pee running down.
Thanks for the video AC - Please don't compromise your integrity by bowing to the sort that view products such as this worth their $$$. Your videos provide folks like me an irreplaceable service; where my $$$ goes. I cannot thank you enough. Recently received 2 "flame-on" Torchs. One ML, the other DST. The DST is 2 Torch's in one, as with an accessory the figure could be Johnny or the original. The DST comes with a flaming flight base. The DST comes with fireballs and throwing flames. The flame grill on the DST figure is engraved rather then cheaply scribbled with a sharpie. There is no comparison in the quality between both and should someone decide that the extra $5 for the DST is not worth it, I do not possess the abilities to convince you otherwise.
Take AC's advice - he's not bashing Hasbro (we all love them, that's we we get so pissed at their indiscretions). But Hasbro needs to know that we are not compromising our $$$ for this crap. "Mustard-yellow" - yeah right! It looks like Jubilee just got out of a nightclub and someone puked on her coat. Drop mic.
@@sirmustardofhousemayonnais9907 Hard to disagree with you there, considering I am not their accountant, however the point is stop compromising. Your $$$ deserves more respect then wasting it on this junk.
@@sirmustardofhousemayonnais9907 I question whether you did receive the point I was trying to make based on your reply. If you respect your $$$ and don't accept Hasbro's deficiencies as a compromise, simply don't buy it. It might not change your reality but it does mine, and anyone else who feels the same way.
Do you have retro symbiote Spider-man to review?
Still waiting for my shipment
Totally agree with you
They just put shit out knowing they will sell regardless.
I love this figure, but the shading sucks and her knees, not even with hot water i could move them, i just have to use a lot of streanght to finally make them move but it wont unstuck, it just get stucked again everytime you straight the legs again. Damn...
Both of these are garbage for what you are paying for. Who the hell would boot lick a company that barely is making an effort? As consumers we can send the message by not buying this kind of product.
I’d like to see what you can do in a custom set of animated series X-men
I wouldn’t be interested in them either way, but at least the cell shading (if done correctly) would give the fans something different, so count that as a “yes”. Blame it on the Pandemic, blame it on the economy, blame it on general malaise from the state of the world today, but Hasbro is going backwards. Look at the Love and Thunder figures compared to Ragnarok. If I had nothing other than the figures to go by, I’d bet the house that Love and Thunder came out in 2017 and Ragnarok came out in 2022. Hasbro built up a pool of goodwill from 2014 to 2019, but that pool is drying up faster than Lake Mead.
i prefer animated xmen figure with out shelf shading paint.
I totally agreed man they should work hard to make the figure a collectible and seen this things like that not worth it man and yeah they need to bring this shit to 16 buck they can sale then in a zip block for all I care of they are not having a good QC
Looks good. But I feel like it just could have been a little better.
YESSSSSSS ANTHONY👏👏👏👏👏
Anthony: "I am not negative..."
Denying his entire brand in a single sentence. Does he really think people watch him for "objective" evaluations?
Yes
Don't they? I don't watch him hoping he says bad things about the figures ..I watch to see his evaluation on figures that I may purchase. There's a difference between being negative and pointing out things that are actually bad
You calling what i do a "brand" is so emblematic of the problem in the industry it's not even funny.
Transformers Generations 35th Anniversary Optimus Prime and Megatron look great cell shaded. No excuse for Hasbro, it’s not their first attempt at this stylized paint application.
Good point.
marvel legends is dead. love the reviews!
Anthony, why are you so negative about things that are bad? Is this channel called NegativeNanthonysCustoms or something?
Why most Hasbro female figures have the same face? The only different I saw was Captain Carter and some MCU figures!
If anything, you're too kind. You could have easily held this figure up on camera and just said "This blows." The only thing it gets right are the base colors. They used that same awful, mustard, paint they used on Wolverine and the shading makes no sense. The boots are wrong, neither head looks like the character from the show, and the effect parts are terrible. It's like someone picked up the old Jubilee figure, haphazardly applied some paint, grabbed whatever accessories were laying around, and said "Here. They won't know the difference." Why not use Dazzler's effect parts? They're not 1:1 for Jubilee, but they're a lot better than those wispy things. Why not sculpt a new head? Wolverine got two new heads, Jubilee can't get 1?! The no glasses head has the wrong hair and looks too old, the molded on glasses head is missing the earrings, the whole thing just feels cheap, but it's at a premium price for a Marvel Legends release. And I bought the dumb thing too pretty much knowing it was a rip-off, but these are the games we play with these companies to get the product we want because I want an animated X-Men line, so I feel like I have to buy them because if they perform poorly for Hasbro they'll blame the property and not their product. It's just so frustrating, so for your question of the day I guess my response is "I don't care, I just want them to do the series right," but apparently that's an impossible standard for Hasbro.
