Marvel Legends DEMOGOBLIN BAF Spider-Man Action Figure Review
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 дек 2024
- Hasbro has released quite a few questionable build-a-figures in recent history but this one might be the most unremarkable in a few ways. Is a regular sized figure with almost all re-used parts acceptable as a BAF?

I think it’s okay. Hasbro is allowed to make a regular sized BAF every now and then. I mean, it’s called Build a Figure, not Build a Big Figure. Execution is another story however.
The Star Wars speed bike that's where you saw that stand for
Yep
“They're not just doing it for free, they’re including it the cost” YES! Thank you! Someone actually addressed this. It pains me that so many collectors fail to understand basic economics. They think “oh Im only paying for the figure.” No, the $20 price tag goes towards the figure, baf piece, the packaging, as well as labor and capital in production. Anyway, awesome review, definitely not finishing this baf though.
Except to point out that they're $20 figures, and most 6" figures are $20 without a BaF piece. So that's why it seems free.
It’s because they keep the price down compared to other companies. Hence BAF piece for free..... it doesn’t take much of a leap to figure my dude
@@StarkMark2 They're $20 figures because they reuse the same stuff on 90% of the figures they make for a decade.
I don't like it. This could have been an exclusive or maybe a vehicle set with more accesories like Ghost Rider or Professor Xavier but they decided to make it a BaF.
@@Emolga6274 They could have included another big character like a Man-Spider fully mutated. That would have been more attractive to get all the wave than a repaint of Goblin.
I mean normally this would be pretty upsetting, but the wave he's the BaF of is actually pretty good so meh
Dude, this is literally how the regular figures back in the day looked. You’d get some kickass accessories, actually decent sculpting & unique sculpting on top of that. Now you can only get that old good quality in a BAF? & not even consistently? What a shame.
Marvel Legends is undoubtedly making they’re way down the toilet, & with Mcfarlane taking over the DC Universe figures, I hope to be seeing him outshine Marvel Legends in no time.
About the lack of pumpkin bombs, I'm like 80% sure he doesn't actually use any. He mostly shoots flames out of his hands. And if he did have a pumpkin bomb, then what he'd actually be missing is his bag lol.
Just thought I'd throw that out there
Yeah i agree, regular size character like this and the one in the black panther baf should never be baf figures, it's not ok
I definitely remember Hasbro reps saying that Mantis would be the last small BAF and yet here we are.
Hey, Hasbro, If you don't give us a figure the size of a Sentinel or a Galactus, just STOP with BAF! Give more accessories to the figures.
This should’ve been released as a deluxe figure, like the MCU Black Widow that was just put up for preorder imo. That way Hasbro could’ve included a couple pumpkin bombs (should’ve been at least 1 anyway, definitely not a space saving issue lol), alternate hands and an alternate head sculpt.
These beginning poses are getting better and better lmao
It’s a sick figure. Anthony’s reviews summed up “ ehhhhh it’s alrightt, prettyyyy goood, mehhhhh, not very good” 😆
Considering we got Mantis and Okoye in past waves, and I really wanted this guy...I’m cool with it
Thanks for the review.
Regarding BAFs in general. I’ve come to associate these with large, imposing figures with fairly unique sculpts, like Monster Venom, Gladiator Hulk, Hulkbuster, Cull Obsidian, Onslaught, Comics Iron Monger, possibly Groot...
This Demogoblin falls into the same category as Ultimate Green Goblin, Ultron or Odin. Not bad, but not imposing, or nothing we haven’t seen before as either individual releases or in parts. Green Goblins have typically had satchels and pumpkin bombs in addition to the glider, this one’s a bit light on accessories.
Then again, there’s only a limited budget for each wave. What’s invested in the BAF doesn’t go into the regular figures. I remember that the Monster Venom wave had mostly cost saving symbiote kitbashes and repaints.
So I guess a lackluster BAF is necessary sometimes.
I found the other half of this wave the day after this review was posted, so I was able to complete Demogoblin. I really like him, he's very fun. I don't have any of the other Goblins, so I don't have any pumpkin-bombs, but I have him holding the fireball that came with Boom-Boom, and that looks pretty great.
I like it. This wave was really good imo. I liked almost every figure in the wave. I love the goblins and the glider+stand really sold it for me. I just wish the other goblin gliders had stands.
I get the size issue of this being a BAF but at some point you run out of big characters that people care about. I get that the super skrull was a good figure but I personally just don't give a shit about that character and I think that is the main thing hasbro is looking at.
I think if they're going to do that give it more stuff. Heads, weapons, hands, etc..
I personally can't wait to get this guy. The only reason he is the baf is because Hasbro knew it was the only way to sell this weak wave. Lol.
He doesn't normally use bombs but they could've at least given him some fireball effect parts, which he does use.
What do you all do if you want the BAF, but not the main figure it comes with?
Maybe his armor became his skin due to the transformation. I mean you can also see scales around his mouth. And his face looks like Baraka's from MK.
That stand came with the Star Wars black series speeder bike
yep
It doesn’t bother me too much, but I love bafs that stand over regular sized legends.
Speaking of baf, which baf for you is the best.
I would rather have a BAF that I want regardless of its size over a HUGE BAF that I have no interest in, in saying that because the cost of a larger figure is built in to the price maybe as a compromise Hasbro could have sold this wave at $2 less per figure ??? I dunno lol
But why set up that premise which isn't the case in the first place?
@@AnthonysCustoms true but it's BAF not BALF Build a Large Figure ? We have just all got used to getting a "big" figure but it's not written in stone that it has to be that way.
Over all not impressed with the last few Legends waves. A few stand outs but whole waves have been fairly week. Also totally a agree, ridiculous there's no pumpkin bomb on a regular size baf! Even Dormammu came with 2 flaming skulls!
After the Fantastic Four wave, this wave is trash. People in our area only cared about Shang Chi and Vulture. The rest of Spiderman's costumes are shelf warmers. The BAF looks good but it could've been a regular release...
Eh...having most of the figures from the wave it's actually pretty good. White Rabbit is not everyone's cup of tea but she's a fun villain for Spider-Man's rogues. And Superior Ock is just a good figure besides the stupid tentacles. Not sure about the Gamerverse stuff but even if you don't like the looks they're pretty good figures. Obviously it's gonna boil down to personal tastes, but I think we can at least agree that it shits on the Kingpin wave from last year.
@@jovonniewilliams1312
Can't argue with the looks of the Spiderman Figs.. They really look good, they're just not good enough to please a lot of people ( like me ). Been to multiple places, Walmart, Gamestop & Local comic book stores. Shang Chi and Vulture are the only ones that are missing... Good thing I was able to get 1 Vulture..
I wish Hasbro would make more waves that's similar to Fantastic Four.
Anthony great review..I've been trying to get a hold of you for customize character were can I reach you at
??
my website. I get a lot of emails. please be patient.
If not for a dearth (or lacking) of Hobgoblin and Green Goblin figs, this figure would be lame. But there’s only one Hobgoblin figure, and it’s very expensive. Figure looks cool.
I don’t like that he was a baf, but I think he looks great. I only wanted 3 figures from this wave so paying for the other 3 sucked since they cost so much. I’m fine with the scaled arms.
BAFs should be the bigger characters. Giving us this is like giving us an white rabbit BAF.
I like this figure, it will go well with the other goblins (Red Goblin needs a glider and this one needs a pumpkin bomb), the scaled skin doesn't bother me since some authors chose to interpret him like that, it could use a light brown wash similar to the face on the rest of the body though. The glider should have the red head turning into orange then yellow as it went to the tips on the back like Anthony said, it's missing another demon head and at least one pumpkin bomb. The shoulder articulation could have been better, they should have used one of those new bodies with butterfly joints, diaphragm joint, etc. I don't like the BAF concept altogether, I rarely want to buy a full line so I would prefer they lowered the price point and added a new figure to the wave, when the figure was a bit bigger they could raise the price point a bit. I end up having to buy the BAF on the after market and with the shipping prices I end up buying a complete BAF because buying the 3 parts I need will cost me the same as buying the full BAF. I don't like the BAF concept, be it a big, regular, or small sized figure I don't like it so it's all the same for me. Thanks for the review Anthony.
Awesome video as always, so glad u are here!
So the figure, i wish it had the same color (it do look's like he has those strange lumps on the face too tho) on the arm as in the face and just skin no plague-like lumps there and i wish he had some tears in the chlotes too (just some more detail on the body/legs and some wash or so). And for sure 3D print (or sculpt maybe) some pumpkins for him because that is a crime not to sent that with him! But i think i like it anyway so i would buy it, will not collect them all to get him as a BAF tho. Love from Sweden!
Hasbro:Buy 6 get 1 free
Me:...well yeah but no 🤣
I feel like yeah it's the glider and base...also I feel like you are paying for the character...he is very badass...a good 90s vibe to him
Hasbro has really dropped the ball on Spiderman. Seems like figures that should be BAFs (Doppleganger, 6-Arm Spiderman, Proper Doc Ock tentacles, etc.) are crapped out like an afterthought. Then the BAFs we get really should be single carded figures. Plus the last few sets have been crap to ok at best...
I feel cheated when they do repaints of full BAFs, I didnt mind when they did this with Mantis
I love the colors , not a fan that it is a BAF but people will keep buying so fuck it.
Overall I like this wave, favorite figure of the wave has to be Shang-Chi though really every figure in the wave seemed to be a little off like an extra head for Shang-Chi would of been nice, the spider-men could of used more hands(ock spider tentacles kinda BS), Vulture just could of used a little more paint & wing detail, White Rabbit being White Rabbit & the extra figure being cool still is reused & you’re right could of used some pumpkin bombs to add that little extra something as it isn’t a brand new figure in most ways nor is it a big figure that towers over others like a normal BAF.
If he wasn’t my favorite design for a character from my childhood, I might feel different but I’m so happy with him ha
Only true Spiderman fans will like it .
Like me
This shouldn’t have been a baf
If they are going to do something like this, it better be a whole new mold and it better be amazing as hell. Just my opinion.
I dont get your complaints. "Same parts as every other figure". ? So whats the point of getting any of them?
There is no point, or you could just accept mediocrity
@@chewymew all plastic toys are mediocre entertainment devices meant for children.... All just plastic and paint.
Definitely shouldn't be a BAF!! Give us those bigger figures!! I will say the glider goes nicely with the Red Goblin too! Great review!😊❤
I feel a little dumb to pay 90£ to get it.
Suddsky s dont feel dumb. If you enjoy it, it’s worth it.
I would prefer they release an updated version of a Sentinel BAF or Galactus. I dunno. Something better. 🤷
You get to a point where you've done so many spider-man waves you have no idea what to do next, I think at this point they're scrapping at the bottom of the barrel. unless tie-ed into a movie spider-man waves have been slowly dying out for me.
Do a top 10 ML BAFs!
Should have been part of the wave
Egh, imma skip this baf, I’ll just pick up the spideys and maybe Shang Chi 🤷♂️
In pissed this was a bad because I really want it bur the only other from the wave I want is vulture
Toybiz made one and it was so good
was there a toybiz equivalent?
Demon pizza, yum.
I see it as 5 buy 1 for free
But it's not
Old Demogoblin figure is Much better in my opinion. Not worth buying the whole wave for this figure.
The BAF is ok. The whole wave is lackluster.
Why do you say lackluster, the wave is ok as well. Sure, some may have reused bodies and stuff but the Demogoblin does as well, so yeah.
This is trash Build a Figure. Hasbor ripping pp off. The Toybiz was not a BAF ang with a much better glider. Disappointing.
Anthony puberty voice @ 3:24 ^_^
I hope you're not buying all this stuff you don't like!
Good figure. But not baf.
I like you toys!
Do you like anything or just pretty much complain about everything you review?? What you should do is open your own line of toys so everything is perfect.
These are reviews. What i like is irrelevant. I'm providing information.
@@AnthonysCustoms I hear you but it seems every time I watch one of your reviews usually on BAF’s you dump all over it. You know opinions are like assholes everyone has one. But you probably turned people away on a lot of good figures because the way you rip them apart. There will absolutely Never be a perfect figure that’s what happens when you buy a mass produced product there will be imperfection or lack of quality control. What you need to do is do sideshow figures if you are looking for top of the line figures.
@@AnthonysCustoms and don’t get me wrong I do value your opinion when you review a figure I’m not dumping on you so please don’t take it that way. I get when you pick at little things I use to do the same things then I brought myself to the realization that when these get mass produced you’ll never get close to perfection and the quality control really starts to slip. That’s why Sideshow figures are so expensive because the exception to detail is insane and quality control on them is very good for the most part.
