WHO THE HELL IS ASKING NOT TO DO SIZE COMPARISONS!?!?
PLEASE KEEP DOING THEM
I know, right? If there's one thing that's not important to an action figure collector it's scale...
They’re literally so helpful
People don't like size/scale comparisons? Thats one of the most important parts to me.
I love height comparisons. Gives me a great idea of how I’ll be posing figures ahead of time before getting them
size comparisons are always helpful
From what I gathered from other reviewers, he's not Thor. He's an entity who copied Thor's appearance.
Yup. The Black Winter, also known as Fimbulwinter, he destroyed the previous cosmos and Galactus is supposed to be his herald.
Galactus freaked out and asked Thor for his help and imbued him with the power Cosmic to help fight against him.
Like Goku Black
Black Winter is an entity that ties into one of many origins of the current multiverse and Galactus
Pls never stop with the size comparisons man it’s important information that only takes a couple of seconds in the video. If you could throw other lines in there like figuarts for the comparisons it would be nice.
Thor is… interesting. Its weird, his stories and the concepts they present are super interesting, but the majority of his villains are boring. Gorr? Amazing! Enchantress? Boring. Loki? Depends. I think he works best in big, existential stories like the one where Black Winter is shown in because it shows the gravitas of his actions. But he feels SUPER out of place with the Avengers, especially now. I love the new Thor figure, and I’m glad they reused the body for this figure. I hope we get Rune King Thor though soon!!
Black Winter here doesn't devour planets like Galactus, it devours entire realities.
Make The Multiverse Great Again.
1) Please keep doing height comparisons!
2) I like Thor stories when done well, but he's up and down. Walt Simonson's run in the mid-1980's was life-changing for me as a kid. Solid review as always, thanks! 👍
I would say there's no need to size compare to figures outside of the reviewed figure's scale generally. Like there's no need to show MS Cap next to ML figures because he will obviously tower over them since he's 1/10 scale instead of 1/12.
Having said that, there should be exceptions for larger characters that could potentially still fit in a 1/12 scale display. Great examples would be MS Hulk and Titanium Man, who look very good in ML collections.
Please don't get rid of size comparisons, they're so useful cause I sometimes watch your reviews to decide what custom fodder I'm gonna buy.
Would really love to see more Thor villains.
I like the idea that his hair would be moving despite if he is moving or standing still, like it’s smoke or something .. creepy cool idea.
I love scale/size comparisons, I was hoping for some hulk/juggernaut size comparisons on the she hulk figure
this figure wants to be in a shampoo commercial
Thor is my favorite avenger and my 2nd favorite marvel character overall. I wish he was shown half the love that other characters get figure wise.
Qotd I’m not a comic book guy but Thor is awesome, if I did collect marvel legends I’d want a good Thor
Nexus Thor or 80th anniversary are the way to go!
I would get this guy only because of the black fire smoke effect. Looks really cool
I like Thor, and excited for Odin’s release, but why is big bad toys marking this wave up a dollar and say $4.00 flat ship fee? When it’s all said in done you’re looking at $10.00.
With the more muscular figures(big forearms and bulging biceps) can you get more range with a double joint? Won’t the musculature get in the way? And does a double make the arms too long or not really because normal people won’t pose figures with arms straight down ?
The joint never needs to add length... That's just bad design. You can definitely do double joints on big figures. It's just cheaper not to
Those Neca TMNT rock guys 2 pack have bulkier arms, and they have double jointed elbows that don't affect the sculpt
Never stop with the size comparisons.
I’m always down to learn about more Thor lore and adjacent characters
I feel like they've done a couple of good flexible cape/hair in the past? Maybe like the old Polaris green cape?
Thanks for the review!
Not a huge Thor fan but that figure actually looks really cool
I for one love the look of the hair (articulation impediments notwithstanding)! I have zero familiarity with the character and no particular affinity towards Thor or Thor-related characters, but just going off the overall vibe of the character design and the art on the box I think the flowing hair does a lot to give him an ethereal, otherworldly feel that adds a nice bit of visual interest. I might not want hair quite this wild for any long-haired characters, but generally I don't mind hair sculpts erring on the side of dynamic.
QotD: I was more Spider-man, X-men, Ghost rider and Hulk fan growing up. But I recently started reading some of Thor's stories and he is really growing on me. Gonna get this figure when discounted!
Thor, especially in recent years, has really been consistently better than the average ongoing comic title that’s for sure.
@@jordanscott4543 All of my knowledge for him is from the MCU and Avengers: EMH, so it's pretty limited. The only run that I've read is Kirby's. Now I started the one from Jason Aaron with Gorr, because I was very disappointed with Thor: Love and thunder and want to see what Gorr is really capable of.
I'm a huge Dr Strange fan, fav character easily. And although I don't read enough of Thor, I read the run where Thor becomes herald of galactus and where black winter appears and I'm honestly hyped about this one. Let's see if I'll still be by the end of the review.
Neat that he's big. I miss the ROML days when Thor figures were huge. The recent ones are a bit puny.
Thors only been cool to me because of movies. Even the Adventures in Baby Sitting Vincent Denofrio 'Thor' was interesting. I never read the comics though.
The hair is the only thing that makes this figure unique so...
I've always liked Thor and his Asgardian friends and foes. I'd like to see figures of other Marvel Pantheons.
The figure looks decent enough. I do agree with Anthony about the chest being less beefy than it ought to be and the articulation, isn't what it could be.
The cape and hammer effect look cool.
Anthony, have you ever reviewed any of Valaverse's Action Force figs? I'd be curious to know what your opinion of them is.
I haven't. No interest in the fantasy military stuff.
My thing with size comparisons is i remember back in the day when you were staunchly against them because you did a measurement and its easy to just look at the numbers. For me comparisons go beyond pure height, but also show volume, color, and silhouette. Ive had a number of figures I got because it looked good and it was only a few cm different. Cool that character can be a little short. But then I get them into my collection and go "oh this doesnt look like a short character, but its proportionally smaller with all features" similarly theres been a lot of figures I didnt have the urge but then saw them next to some figure I had and went "oh wow that actually looks great and pairs/compliments really well". Plus just the vicarious enjoyment of seeing mutliple figures together. I think the urge to collect hits a bunch of different angles beyond just characters in a vacuum. Also Darwin being the freaky mascot is fun.
I like Thor particularly Walt Simonson and Esad Ribic eras. Id want any designs from those runs. Highly recommend either reads. Still waiting on a Godbutcher Thor and this makes me want his necrosword final look too.
The hair/cape i dont mind. The hair is meant to be all smokey and whispy, cape not so much iirc
The problem with comparisons is that they are only very specifically useful. If you don't own the other figure, it means almost nothing to you. That's my argument against them.
Q of the Day: Thor and the Hulk bored me to tears when I was a kid durning the Bronze Age. I find the MCU versions infinitely more entertaining and three dimensional. I couldn’t care less about Black Winter. He’ll go up for sale the next time I have a hankering for a Frappachino.
Keep the Darwin comparison, everyone needs something that sets them apart and he’s sort of become your thing lol
KEEP DARWIN IN THE VIDS
I like size comparisons...
Man Anthony is pushing out reviews like no tomorrow 👍
The hair is very big and a blue shading in some spots would have been nice.
“Don’t shoot he’s not Black”
I swear hasbro watches your videos , there have been way less turds lately. Keep doing gods work 👌
This action figure of Black Winter taking on the appearance of Thor looks cool. It would have been better if the action figure used a new body that was more muscular. Honestly you should keep on doing size comparison because it is helpful.
Black winter....((sighs))) true form is...too big to even be a Haslab. I say that cause...He is basically this new character who is revealed to have turned the once man into Galactus and ((Sighs)) Made him his Herald. Yes, Galactus was a herald of Black Winter. He isn't Thor. It's just a form he took when speaking to Thor. I think Black Winter appears to look different to everyone who sees him. I don't know a ton about him. Just he is the one who made Galan into Galactus to be his Herald. And that he is actually much much much much bigger then Galactus but can take other forms of any size.
Sounds like marvel ran out of ideas... "Just make a bigger guy again."
@@AnthonysCustoms Pretty much. LOL
Ever thought about reviewing the storm collectibles baki figs?
Hey Anthony do you think you could do a review on the storm collectibles Baki Hanma figure? There’s not a lot of reviews on him and none scale him next to other figures
❤ love his flow hair
You should do one of Wave 4 for Animal Warriors of the Kingdom.
I say keep the height comparisons! Specially because it means Darwin will be in the review!!
I might get this someday, but at a lower price if it does happen
I like thor that's kinda it, bit if it's norse mythology thor then I'm all into the lore
Same mold as the thor sadly . My thor came all gummy.
Hasbro seems to have this weird obsession with basing figures off of a single random piece of artwork. Like this hair sculpt is almost directly traced from the first image of Black Winter that shows up on google. Same thing with Riot being based on a random variant cover.
That's all the research they do
Hasbro capes suck but WAY better than McFarlane capes.
He devoured a version of the DC universe also.
"For a marvel legends collector its fine...but its certainly not anything special at all" lol
First a lady Thor, now a black Thor. What’s next? A Thor that’s half horse?
Thorse?
Beta Ray Bill is technically a Horse Thor. There's also a Frog Thor
@@chewymew Daaaaaaaannnngggg! Thats pretty much everything. All they’d need to do is a handicapped Thor. Maybe an amputee of some kind!
Do ultraman rising shf
Is it just me or does he kinda look like Jason Clarke?
Anybody else noticing that his Marvel Legends reviews have definitely been neutered? I’m guessing it’s perhaps a decree by BBTS or something like that. Last year this figure would’ve just gotten a 5/10
He scores them in their own scale. A figure might be 5/10 normally but for a Marvel Legends it would be an 8/10.
@@muisverriet I know that, but it seems that his legends scale has greatly been nerfed recently in terms of how rigorous and objective they used to be.
Bullshit. Average ML quality has slightly increased over the past year, and Anthony's ratings just reflect that slight bump up in quality. He still finds plenty of flaws in just about every one, because what would Hasbro Marvel Legends be without flaws?
It doesn't really seem to be the case, his Shield 3 Pack was pretty brutal still. His most recent Marvel Legends reviews haven't been complete garbage figures lately
I have been working with bbts for over 10 years. I've never altered, adjusted, or directed a review based on any input from anyone. I've had companies ask me to take down reviews. I didn't. What's wrong with people like you who are always trying to cause trouble or get attention by just making random stuff up?
Beta Ray Bill >>> Thor
Agreed
Are you going to review jadatoys Dhalsim?
Yes
Not having much connection to this character allows for more of an objective review. Lazy. This is King Thor all over again with a can of black spray paint and a wild hairdoo. I really wish someone would give the designers comic books instead of Google to use as a reference. I'm a pretty big Thor fan.
Don't care for Thor, just got a marvel select one to scale with my mcfarlanes. I have him fighting a superman in my display case
I love how hasbro has their own scale for ratings that’s handicapped at like a +2 out of 10 haha. “Pretty good for legends”
Bought him for the BAF piece, immediately traded him for something I actually wanted, along with the previous Thor figure using this same body.
The hair is what's holding me back. Legends needs to work a bit with that feature with their figures.
No don’t care haha
Thor is one of the most boring characters to follow in Marvel comics
this figure is just terrible for the articulations, it should bea fighting godly entity but this guy can't even hold his hammer properly.
no butterflies, no double joints, no arm cross, no forward torso movement, no high kicks, no split NOTHING this is an old figure with no effort sold as new it should just cost less but instead it's full priced
for me this shit gets a 5\10 this is not a good figure and it's not that much accurate but it's not good as a statue and not good as a figure for me a 5 it's more of an acceptable rating.
you can look at it without vomiting that's positive, but the rest is just not.
The hair ruins it for me.
Garbage figure, 8.5 is ridiculous.
What’s so bad about this figure?
