Alot of Mondo fans seem upset at my thoughts on this figure. The whole point of a review is to review and talk about the product you recieved, and quite obviously I recieved a horrendous copy of this figure. He literally has a backwards forearm, loose ankles and scraped the thigh live on video. Am I supposed to praise the figure for these things? I mentioned Mondo WILL fix these things which is cool and all, but you cant blindly be okay with the fact that faulty product like this is being sent out on a consistent basis. I was eagerly waiting for this figure and Venom to enter my collection, but after this horrendous copy, I made the decision stay away from this line. I’m happy for those who recieved good copies and love their figures but I didn’t have the same experience as you. Can’t say I didn’t try to give them a chance.
You decided to stay away after only one disappointing experience, but I hope in the future you will return to the line when you see other, better figures that you like. I have full confidence in Mondo making this a great line to collect, even if there is the odd hiccup along the way.
When I saw this video pop up I wasn’t surprised. I took a chance on the Batman animated series figure and while it was nice to look at, it quickly became my least favorite figure in my collection. The base came with scratches and it could hardly stand even with the stand! I ended up selling the figure. Mondo is just not for me.
@@Spider-Criminal seriously a lot of people rave about mondo but articulation is “ok” all they really do is look good in vanilla poses at that point you might as well just buy statues.
Damn what happened with the final product. I was keen for this but his body is all over the place vs the renders. The shoulders are so narrow and low, his neck is long as and the thighs are so massive they stick out past the hips. Also that articulation…this should be used as reference for those who said the original 2099 prototype was better than what we ended up getting. Glad I skipped now! Thanks lads for the video!
Mondo figures are overpriced and shouldn't be anymore than $150 for what they are. These aren't Hot Toys and shouldn't be priced as one. It seems like more and more of their figures have QC issues...my Lion-O included. Their customer service is great though from my experience (thankfully)
For a second I thought he was over exaggerating, but then I saw the price, poor paint qc, FUCKIN oil leaking, wrong elbow joint, paint chipping off, and DID I MENTION THE FUCKING OIL. I know it's there to lubricate the joints which is normal for figures; but it doesn't usually leak out like a greasy slice of pizza bruh. I'll just buy the 2099 Hot Toys at that point to be honest. Btw this video is even better when you realize he kinda looks and sounds like Shawn from Boy Meets World.
Most Mondo Fans' excuses are "they're art pieces"💀. Yes,I heard some reviewers defend these figs. Even the Batman TAS line suffers from these issues. They look great,but they don't pose. It's insane.
I am not paying 250 for this monstrosity of a figure. I rather save a couple more dollars and buy a hot toys. I would punch myself if I did buy this figure.
“Mondo focuses more on aesthetic than articulation” EXPOSED JOINTS AND GAPS EVERYWHERE. “Hot toys can’t move without messing up the soft goods” mondo has no soft goods and it still can’t move lol
@@Riley.Reviews it literally helps with joints not breaking. In Mondo's case they way they engineer the articulation makes almost useless since you can't fix a bad figure no matter what you do
I hace the Mondo Batman 1/6 Animated Series and honestly after being a collector of Hot Toys, Kaustik Plastik, Sideshow, Threezero and other similar brands I will never buy a Mondo again.
So, got my Venom and to my surprise I didn't get custom charges on it, damn that such a relief, living in EU collecting Hot Toys kills ya wallet. Figure is amazing in hand but being a 1/6 collector you literally cannot stop finding mistakes. Paint rubs, oil leaking, scuffs, stiff joint that I nearly broke trying to move it, some mold problems on the teeth and so on. All that said the fact that this Venom is my childhood Venom it kinda makes me love it so much even though it has so many faults. Oh and articulation is just straight up bad. Makes me want to get Peter so I can re-create the pose where Venom holds him as I have the exclusive, I just cant justify Spider-man, it looks nothing like the cartoons.
While I never intended to buy any of these Mondo 1/6 figures, I was curious to see how they would turn out. And while Mondo is doing right by their costumers and sending replacements (free of charge) as Nick states that shouldn’t happen in the first place. I’m sure most of the 1/6 community appreciates the full transparency Nick shared here (Those who don’t turn a blind eye to these things), as It was his experience and I certainly appreciated the honesty!
@@youngcam7972 I own over 30 Mondo figures and have only had two QC issues including this Spider-Man. I emailed them yesterday and I’ve already got an email back confirming my replacement is being sent. Absolutely the best customer service in the biz. Mondo, particularly their animated figures is all about aesthetic and not articulation. You just have to know that and accept it going into it.
I’ve been collecting Marvel Legends for a while now and have recently been seriously considering moving on to a higher class of figure. Quality over quantity. Reviews like this are super helpful. A $240 figure shouldn’t have these kinds of issues. A backwards arm on a $25 figure is just an accident. A backwards arm on a $240 figure is a travesty.
Man that neck is all fucked up. It's long from some angles, and the web lines are atrocious. I'm glad I don't collect 1/6 where paint apps matter more than 1/12. You can hide little paint flaws on 6 inch, but 12 inch is much more important.
So sorry this happened, it’s absolutely unacceptable mondo isint usually like this. The issues are just insane like unbelievable. Hope mondo does rhe usual and send replacements but damn now I’m worried for my rogue. Great review thanks for spreading awareness on this seriously awful how much they overlooked the issues
I can’t imagine spending 250 on this. I was tempted but luckily the price turned me off. It looks like something toybiz would make as like a big mega figure or something
That greasy thing... I have a feeling it could be the clear coat melting slightly. I encountered that on a some figures, and sometimes in customs too. Feels and looks like grease, smears and can gets everywhere.
Insane price, worse articulation then a 25$ marvel legends figure, at least when you buy hot toys you get your money’s worth for that high price but here it’s definitely not worth it at all there’s no way Mondo D Riders can defend this 😂
I have Mondo Faker, and I learned about their QC the hard way. The handle on his sword snapped off from me pulling it out of his sheath, and the handle on the shield broke off from me hanging it on his body.
I collect the Batman line. And to start I loved them. But then the price jumped from $125 to $250 plus and some of the new figs have been awful. Phantasm apparently had her back broken by Bane, thats the story I’m going with. They made the fig with a torso swap but the joint is so loose that the fig is completely broken and not usable at all
Damn, I ordered Venom as that's my favorite Venom of all time, I passed on Spider-Man as I absolutely hated the proportions and shapes something about it looks way off but I had to get Venom. Man, this is horrible, the forearm killed me, how does that happen? I wish Hot Toys woke up and gave us these figures in the quality of Spider-Man 2099. They can do it, that 2099 Spiderman is a masterpiece, I can only imagine what they can achieve for a animated series Spider-Man and Venom. Bummer
I don’t collect this scale of figs but this is ridiculous. It looks like a lame marvel legends at a glance, it leaks oil, it has the wrong arm, and it doesn’t pose? Either get a few SHF/Figma/whatever 6 inch figure company you prefer OR save a bit more to get a hot toys. So lame
the original 10" inch deluxe Spider-Man '94 figure from toy biz had less problems and defective moments than this one. just a disgrace of the bootleg level
Man, this is so sad. Companies aren't shy to charge an arm and a leg for this stuff but QC workers are non existent because these companies are just too money hungry to even pay to have these workers.
I held out on Mondo for a while, but had to order the Spider Man figures. Say what you will about Hasbro and Mattel, etc. but no locked joints out of the box.
Great honest review! I have never had a Mondo figure before but was interested in their Venom. I'm really glad I saw this first and will be skipping on the figure. For that price, not only should it pose better but more importantly it should not have this level of QC issues. It definitely makes me wary of their Venom. Plus, while it is nice that the company will refund or replace items, the point is, I would rather not have to deal with the issues in the first place. Thanks for this!
No real thigh swivels, either. Just two loose balljoints on thighs. Why bother buying this sheitz when Marvel Legends could offer us ab crunch, butterfly shoulders, and thigh swivel??? 🤷♂️🤦♂️
This makes me excited for my Venom that just shipped. That will be my first Mondo as well. Hoping that that figure doesn't have all these horrendous QC issues. A nice guy doesn't deserve this pain
Used to collect Mondo, but their figures are so terrible . Looking wise and accessory wise cool . But QC paint smudges arm limbs snapping off .People forget that Mondo is own by Funko. I switched back to Marvel legends and I’m so happy I sold all my Mondo’s off. sorry another collector fell victim to Mondo‘s cash grab tricks. great video
Seeing and knowing this could be a possibility, I just could never buy expensive figures. I’m ok with QC issues on cheap figures cause I can always replace them a lot more easily.
@@nicks.collectibles lmao! Man, I know not to buy from this company ever. Hey, real talk CT has some bangers. I have to say that CT is the BEST out there for the price point. Only issue is that they are not actually 6 inch so they will be hard to scale for stop motion, photos etc.
I was genuinely considering saving up for this but then I found out that Mondo was bought out by Funko and immediately noped out 'cause there ain't no way they would've kept the quality from before. I really hate to see that I was right.
Terrible figure for many reasons. That is silicone Oil that they have used because to get that effect with the paint they have to lay the Paint on THICK which causes the Joints to get stuck and then too avoid Peeps breaking the Joints they added silicone oil but added way too much.
I enjoyed your dissatisfaction so much I subscribed. And you’re absolutely right , the QC is horrendous for 240 dollars. Or 24 dollars for that matter. I’m sure they’ll refund you but that’s shit is embarrassing for a company this far along w many releases and liscenses. Bad way to start a line.best wishes buddy
11:23 i’ve seen that oil on mafex figures it’s usually used to make figures pose smoother, butttttt its never to that extent, i am not defending this figure because this review shows how terrible it is my 25 dollar ML spider-man poses so much better over this 250 dollar figure
It is great that Mondo will do replacements for faulty parts and all companies should do this... for rare instances that somehow got past QC. It's not a band-aid fix if nearly all the product is faulty out the gate. Makes me question the quality of the replacement more than anything.
That’s a shame. Mine came yesterday and now I’m afraid to open it. 🤣 I have most of the X Men line and they are pretty good. These are really just 12 inch Marvel Legends figures in animated style. Even the better ones aren’t worth the price though. More like $100 and $150 for the bigger ones (Sabertooth for example).
Review was one heartbreak after another with just how many quality control issues the figure had. The enormous price , they were asking for it And of course it just sucks that so many people paid so much for something so faulty. I wasn't planning on getting any mondo anytime soon Simply put , there out of my price range But good to know that i'm not missing out on much
This is crazy, bro. What a disappointment! I have several Mondo figures (not this one), and they're all awesome, but they made some really weird choices with this one 🥴
Yeah never pulled the trigger on mondo due to the prices. Don’t get me wrong the animated Batman and X-men line were awesome looking but no where near the price range they want. Even some of these other companies doing 1/12th figures getting over $100 is insane. I’ll stick with hot toys till I’m finally priced out, which is sooner then later 😂
In what universe should this be $240?? Holy. What a rip-off, and that is without the QC issues. As far as the oily substance is concerned, that is nothing to be concerned about. Some companies put that in the joints to help them move smoother, etc, but that is A LOT of it on this guy. Neca is one company that likes to do it, for an example. This guy looks almost worse than one of my childhood Spidey figures from 2000, an oversized ToyBiz figure (pretty sure it's a ToyBiz, only says Marvel ent. in the foot) - nigh the same size as this guy and also from the Animated Series, actually, that had sculpted-in web lines, that were cleanly colored black... I still have it, and it's great.
Great review and very funny. Brutal. I have been wanting this figure for a while, because it looks awesome, but now? Fuck no. It’s a shame it got ruined by bad QC.
Naw bro proportions are all over the place 😂. He got the never skip leg day Thighs and big buffet ass Chest 😂. Now bro was a super ripped Spider-Man no joke….i like that but with the joints showing and all cuz kinda getting into the Spiderverse 2099 Miguel Johnny Bravo body parts and that a whole nother bag of irritated for me 😓.
@ I’m still watching the video I’m so upset for you bro, ain’t nothing more heart destroying than getting that figure you been hyped for especially ordering it and it a damn MESS when you take it out the box 📦. I too Love this Spider-Man, it’s what made me a fan of the character. My heart goes out to you bro. Great video great review. 1st time year. Really digging the vibe of the channel Big Subs & Likes my boy 👊🏾.
Wow I have Power Rangers from the 90's and 2000's and some Toybiz figures from the 2000's that are more posable than this and they can stand better too

Hi Justin love your vids
The original 2099 was better than what we got.
For $250, stick with hot toys!

Totally agree, great customer service but it’s no excuse for the lackluster final product
Fkng wow.😮 Astonishing, oil inside joints, Wrong arm installed on one side, floppy feet, sloppy paint.... get a refund, please
It was a rough one! Nick confirmed it was returned and refunded. Thanks for watching bro 😎
My 25$ animated Spider-Man Marvel Legends is more posable than that 250$ figure. Whoever thought at Mondo Toys that that was fine should be fired
$25 figs better then $250 ones. Strange times we’re living in lol. Thanks for watching!
Imma be real, I called it when I first saw the announcement of this figure. It's a figure built to cashgrab on people's nostalgia.
That’s actually sad to think if true. Just grabbing money off nostalgia. Animated series fans deserved better
All of Mondo's 90s themed animated series figures are (Batman, X-Men, etc)... which would be fine if these figures were actually good. What a letdown.
a premium figure making a Marvel Legends figure look more valuable is an achievement of its own right, sheesh
That is insane work 😂
For a second I thought he was over exaggerating, but then I saw the price, poor paint qc, FUCKIN oil leaking, wrong elbow joint, paint chipping off, and DID I MENTION THE FUCKING OIL.

To be honest you can get some Hot Toys for less than 250 nowadays! Especially some movie Spideys!

Exactly!! 🤣 idk some mondo fans just can’t accept that this was a miss
Paying $200+ for this is unjustifiable. Just looks like a blown up 6 inch figure with QC issues.
Agreed
This is a 50$ AliExpress K.O
Yeah… yea 😂
Holding the mask like it's icecream. LOL.

Might be passing now. Thanks for the honesty.
I'd pass too after seeing that QC. Tough watch, but thanks for checking it out!

Facts
Not sure why these Mondo figures fetch Hot Toys prices when the quality is so poor
Hit the nail on the head here
@ thanks for informing fellow collectors with Mondo! 🙌🏽
11:23 thats silicone shock oil, its usually used so joints move smoothly and don't break. Extremely common in 1:12 figures
Damn, if that’s common then I wouldn’t want it. Bummer
I never encountered it too that degree

The grease is joint oil to smoothen the movement of the joints.
Good catch!
Finally an honest review of a mondo figure
@@KayP33 always
Nick reportedly confirms that 6 inches are too small for him, and that he needs bigger.
AYO. 😳
Ah damn... I thought I was being subtle
Yay nice to see you back 🙌🏼 love spider-man content 💙❤️
Thank you Jess, it’s good to be back!
please tell me you 3d printed this and its all a joke
🤣 sadly no
I was genuinely considering saving up for this but then I found out that Mondo was bought out by Funko and immediately noped out 'cause there ain't no way they would've kept the quality from before. I really hate to see that I was right.
Definitely 💯
Terrible figure for many reasons. That is silicone Oil that they have used because to get that effect with the paint they have to lay the Paint on THICK which causes the Joints to get stuck and then too avoid Peeps breaking the Joints they added silicone oil but added way too much.
Yea way too many issues. And that actually makes a lot of sense, thanks for clarifying what that was!
Great video, way too overpriced should be $150 max
Totally, it’s insane, thanks for watching!
I enjoyed your dissatisfaction so much I subscribed. And you’re absolutely right , the QC is horrendous for 240 dollars. Or 24 dollars for that matter. I’m sure they’ll refund you but that’s shit is embarrassing for a company this far along w many releases and liscenses. Bad way to start a line.best wishes buddy
I tried my best to make what could be rage video into something fun lol. Thanks for watching
I’m with you here, you can’t have QC issues like this for the joke of the price considering the quality
11:23 i’ve seen that oil on mafex figures it’s usually used to make figures pose smoother, butttttt its never to that extent, i am not defending this figure because this review shows how terrible it is my 25 dollar ML spider-man poses so much better over this 250 dollar figure
Some great insights! Thanks for sharing
Yo the hips on this guy look crazy 😂😂😂😂
Insane 😂
It is great that Mondo will do replacements for faulty parts and all companies should do this... for rare instances that somehow got past QC. It's not a band-aid fix if nearly all the product is faulty out the gate. Makes me question the quality of the replacement more than anything.
Totally! Thanks for watching and providing insights
You know they messed this figure up when hes folded like Peter Griffin in the thumbnail
Lmao glad you knew the reference
😭 thanks for watching
Now Im really worried about upcoming Clayface figure…
Oof
That’s a shame. Mine came yesterday and now I’m afraid to open it. 🤣 I have most of the X Men line and they are pretty good. These are really just 12 inch Marvel Legends figures in animated style. Even the better ones aren’t worth the price though. More like $100 and $150 for the bigger ones (Sabertooth for example).
Hope you have a better experience! I totally agree on the price, way too over. Appreciate the insights and for watching 😎
Review was one heartbreak after another with just how many quality control issues the figure had. The enormous price , they were asking for it And of course it just sucks that so many people paid so much for something so faulty. I wasn't planning on getting any mondo anytime soon Simply put , there out of my price range But good to know that i'm not missing out on much
I’m glad, you’re not missing out on much!
now im worried for my batman beyond pre-order
I’ve heard the same rumblings lol, hopefully they listen to the feedback!
This figure had so much potential 😪 sick review Nick !!
Appreciate it, he had high hopes but they were dashed quickly. Thanks for watching!
the 1/6 Mondo figures always seemed kinda iffy to me for their price. hoping the 3rd party bros in China hook us up with a proper animated Spider-Man
Yeah it would be sick if third party can salvage this 😂 but I wouldn’t count on it. Thanks for watching!
Tbf… upon first glance it looked like a generic upscaled marvel legends figure.
Most definitely. Thanks for watching
This is crazy, bro. What a disappointment! I have several Mondo figures (not this one), and they're all awesome, but they made some really weird choices with this one 🥴
I was really hoping to love it. But I have to be honest with the figure I recieved and quite clearly I got the worst possible figure lol.
Nick was really hoping they'd nail it, thanks for watching!
A used marvel legends is better than this John.
Can’t argue with that
Never understood why pay this amount of money for mondo when you can just get hot toys
Yeah I’d just buy a hot toy at that rate
Yeah never pulled the trigger on mondo due to the prices. Don’t get me wrong the animated Batman and X-men line were awesome looking but no where near the price range they want. Even some of these other companies doing 1/12th figures getting over $100 is insane. I’ll stick with hot toys till I’m finally priced out, which is sooner then later 😂
This is my struggle right now with the SH Monsterarts figures lol. I want the Minus One figure but $140 with no accessories is insane to me😭😭😭😭😭😭
Animated Batman looks so dope, thanks for watching!
Mondo customer service is on par with sideshow collectibles
Yeah they do listen and help with any issues can’t argue with that
Mondo are just large Marvel legends
Facts
Damn dude, yeah mondo big fat NO!
Most definitely
Glad you returned it, and great review
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed
Bro this looks like it could be a neca figure if it was scaled down💀💀Crazy even a $35 neca figure is better than a $240 figure
Lmao 🤣 for real
the proportion looks like the first shf homecoming figure
I can see that actually
In what universe should this be $240?? Holy. What a rip-off, and that is without the QC issues. As far as the oily substance is concerned, that is nothing to be concerned about.
Some companies put that in the joints to help them move smoother, etc, but that is A LOT of it on this guy. Neca is one company that likes to do it, for an example.
This guy looks almost worse than one of my childhood Spidey figures from 2000, an oversized ToyBiz figure (pretty sure it's a ToyBiz, only says Marvel ent. in the foot) - nigh the same size as this guy and also from the Animated Series, actually, that had sculpted-in web lines, that were cleanly colored black... I still have it, and it's great.
2000 figures being better then this is actually criminal. I agree for the price this is inexcusable!
He really is a nice guy!
Someone understands me lol
He’s just a chill guy who spits out grease
@@Riley.Reviews lol
some figs are overpriced for no reason like the sideshow general grevious.
1000%
i KNEW this figure would be trash just from the promo pics. mondo is so wack
@@daftpunkstan7599 trash indeed
Great review and very funny. Brutal. I have been wanting this figure for a while, because it looks awesome, but now? Fuck no. It’s a shame it got ruined by bad QC.
100%, a real shame
It doesn't even include wall crawling hands....
It STINKS
Naw bro proportions are all over the place 😂. He got the never skip leg day Thighs and big buffet ass Chest 😂. Now bro was a super ripped Spider-Man no joke….i like that but with the joints showing and all cuz kinda getting into the Spiderverse 2099 Miguel Johnny Bravo body parts and that a whole nother bag of irritated for me 😓.
I think the QC is the biggest concern personally but I can see the proportion complaints as well lol. Thanks for watching and providing insights
@ I’m still watching the video I’m so upset for you bro, ain’t nothing more heart destroying than getting that figure you been hyped for especially ordering it and it a damn MESS when you take it out the box 📦. I too Love this Spider-Man, it’s what made me a fan of the character. My heart goes out to you bro. Great video great review. 1st time year. Really digging the vibe of the channel Big Subs & Likes my boy 👊🏾.
@ appreciate that bro 😎
@ Sure Thing Man! Enjoying your content, keep up the good work. And PLEASE getcha a Refund ASAP. They need to be locked up for sending you that lol 😂
lol it has since been returned and refunded!
Wow I have Power Rangers from the 90's and 2000's and some Toybiz figures from the 2000's that are more posable than this and they can stand better too
That’s actually sad 😂 thanks for watching!
