I agree, I actually like the paint job on the 1st release better. The shadowing is missing on the skin and face that added emotion to the character. But over all still a fantastic figure, can't deny those accessories and detail. Can't wait for the next release of God of War.
@@WhiteKnightPictures drop a little bit of shading of dirt and pink underneath the white. It's fine, it's just missing on some parts like in the face to make the wrinkles pop out like the first release came out. Wouldn't you agree? :D
I find the pink better actually, say that it’s what people complained about but I see it as the first figure is the beginning of the journey. This figure with Memir shows that it’s been quite a bit of time since Kratos and Atreus left.
I think the real reason why he’s pink is because he’s activated his spartan rage mode, hence why we get a screaming headsculpt and some flame effects. In the game, when you activate it, it changes his skin color a bit as well as the atmosphere around him. So, I think it’s actually accurate.
Or like the creators said that kratos ash marks are fading a little and skin has a pinkish colour and his skin has a kind of pinkish colour in the game
This video really helped me to decide which figure I wanted, thanks for that. Standard release all the way, the white looks amazing, makes the figure pop. Plus the face is so important. Great review 👍
It is visually a stunning set. I have 3 Kratos. Two that look like this version but non-pink. Those are without the son. Then I have the one with the two lions that can be attached to his arms. All 3 look great. I am a little hesitant about this set but it does look great. Thanks for a super review.
Seems like a good set, although I'm disappointed in the paint when you compare to the single pack figure. I don't really need boy but I NEED a Mimir so it looks like I'll probably be going with this set. Great review so thanks!
I think this is one of neca’s all time best figure set. kratos has gotta be one of their best looking figures, loaded with detail, paint and just overall soooo cool looking.
The skin tone is better on the first release, but DANG is everything else [bar your stuck joints] better in this 2 pack for the Dad Of Boy. Maybe you can figure out a way to pop-off the torsos and swap Chalky Dad's upper body onto Pinky Dad's lower body?
I don't get why NECA hasn't fixed or changed their hip system. Every single figure I have from them are plagued with loose hips. Anthony, what would you advise NECA regarding the hip joints?
I haven’t picked up this set yet, but I did get the original release of Kratos and his feet do swivel. The joint is tight but some hot water will loosen them a bit. Great review as always!
I think that the reason why they did the 2 tone strip is to make the actual strip pop out a little bit more you know make it a little bit more noticeable thats why they did that
The reason why he's pinkish is because its his rage of sparta color. It even comes with 2 accesories for his fists which is what he uses during rage of sparta. So thats why!
So I've purchased Kratos recently and there are some pictures of the figure on Big bad toys from where I bought it and it looks so realistic and well painted as it was from Hot Toys. Shame we didn't get a figure like that.
So I'm seeing this on amazon, 3 different prices. Theres only 1 review on all of them saying it's a knockoff. I dont really care, as long as it's well made. Might go for it anyway.
Which of the accesoires would you be able to use on the original? Because that would be the only reason for me to get this set. Atreus is very nice but I don't really want a second, worse looking Kratos... I dig Mimirs head though
I seem to had a couple issues with this 2 pack like the axe was broken in package,one head was cock eyed to say just a few.Other than that im still kinda satisfied with it.
I have the first figure already. Probably gonna get this one just for atreus and the accessories. The kratos does disappoint with the skin tone and the face looking weird. Great review though💯
This is most likely the image they used for sculpt & production , I can see how the two-tone replicates this image ,,,,, thanks for replying,your videos are awesome!!! And those Gargoyle figures DAMN AMAZING!
Just wow!!!! the paint job is horrible on the second edition. If it wasn't for the accessories this looks like a knockoff . Hope i can get the accessories somewhere else.
We're all pink on the inside but is he too pink on the outside?
Promo pictures show his skin being darker. Weird that it's so pink.

I think the pink is meant to replicate my aura when I activates the spartan rage.

Wait the Tekken rage mode 😂
This actually makes sense

😲You didnt play the game ?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? You must play it now !!!!!! 😂Game Of The Year 2018 for me and many others
Haha your right
Same, it was great! But I still like the original games better.

The eyes on the new one looks like a bootleg quality paintjob.
I was thinkin' the same.. It really looks like a knock off compared to the old one. It's pretty weird since we're talking about NECA stuff.
did he get these from Aliexpress????
I’d gladly take Mimir and the Blades of Chaos, but I’m so glad I bought the OG Kratos. The face on the new one is scary compared to the OG.
Seems like a good set, although I'm disappointed in the paint when you compare to the single pack figure. I don't really need boy but I NEED a Mimir so it looks like I'll probably be going with this set. Great review so thanks!
The problem I'm having is I want BOY and and Kratos, but the first release looks WAY better

That and one leg is always more heavily ratcheted than the other, you can see this around 8:17 when he brings them back in

It's just a paint error
A bit of simple weathering would probably help the skin tone and face a LOT
The reason why he's pinkish is because its his rage of sparta color. It even comes with 2 accesories for his fists which is what he uses during rage of sparta. So thats why!
The set looks sweet. 100% agree the OG one has a nicer look with the skin tone. Night and day difference.
So I've purchased Kratos recently and there are some pictures of the figure on Big bad toys from where I bought it and it looks so realistic and well painted as it was from Hot Toys. Shame we didn't get a figure like that.
And yeah I agree that it's odd that you didn't play the game yet you are reviewing the figure. Only because it's one of the best games of all time!
"we have the head of murmur" 😂😂😂
Bit late to ask but are the accessories interchangeable? Like the blades and shield can they work on the standard release?
Yes
Theres qc issues in this pack, my atreus didnt have the knife sheath
Let NECA know through their customer service. They’re good at resolving issues-
Yes! I've been waiting for you to review this!
*confused screaming*
I think Kratos is pink is because he is in spartan rage and yes ik this is late
We have the head of mmr🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Xd
why is this so hard to find
So I'm seeing this on amazon, 3 different prices. Theres only 1 review on all of them saying it's a knockoff. I dont really care, as long as it's well made. Might go for it anyway.

They should have put the single kratos in the 2 pack and put the pink in the single. But the face on the pink wtf
eyebrow on fleek
How big is the boy figure?
I love the original way more. Its less pink and has a better face
@@WhiteKnightPictures well boo hoo

Awsome Action Figure review
I seem to had a couple issues with this 2 pack like the axe was broken in package,one head was cock eyed to say just a few.Other than that im still kinda satisfied with it.
I can't change hands and the head and i can't place his shield :(
I have the first figure already. Probably gonna get this one just for atreus and the accessories. The kratos does disappoint with the skin tone and the face looking weird. Great review though💯
Glad I bought the original release 😞
YESSS WE FINALLY GET A FIGURE OF BOI
It’s Kratos, the god covered in his daughters and wife’s ashes, he’s MEANT to be gray.
Yes. Grey.
ummmmmmm, re-check those google images for God of War 18' Kratos those two-tone red stripes are kinda there in an image I think ,NECA used for sculpt
Um, i checked the game itself.

The ashes have slightly warn off in the older game. But yeah… a little too pink.
1:37 lmfao
Funny.. I’m playing this game right now as I Type. Lol
Of course the head of mrmr
Never leave home without it.
I think the reason its pink is because kratos white skin has been fading slightly and real skin is a pinkish colour
That's not how he looks in the game though
No but in certain camera shots made him look a bit pinkish
I think that the white one is better as it is more accurate
There's a bootleg that is roaming on ebay for around $30
Hey bro you reviewing the GameStop tmnt neca figures?
No. They're the same as the sdcc ones
I'd blackwash the blades cus they were pretty old and dusty when you first get them
You didn’t play the game?
No PlayStation
Majin Boy
The second one looks a little more like the game
he lost his ashes.
He did not. He still has them, they are just not as present in the game.
@@NitroCigarette It was a joke about 2018 neca whiter Kratos.
