To be honest this is the classic for me. I started to read comics in 2000s. And this is how he appeared in Spider-man Web of Shadows. My iconic Luke Cage
Just coz u don't do a stop motion every day doesn't mean your lazy. You've been at this for 15 years, you have a pretty busy life and your reviews are great,informative and funny. The stop motion, while it is my favorite part of the video along with the intro is just an added iconic bonus on top of the great vid 👍
I like the classic 70s Luke Cage figure from Hasbro more but I will admit that his New Avengers does look very cool along with his partner Danny Rand aka Iron Fist who looks so much better with more accessories Dope review on this 2 pack Shartimus.
The way your ToyBiz Iron Fist held its spot is exactly like me when it comes to Hawkeye, until very recently. I got the new Hawkeye (the one with the sky cycle) loose for $10 so I couldn't pass that up, but man, the ToyBiz Hawkeye is still very good in my opinion. It poses better and the accessories are so much better. It just looked a little out place, however.
Wished Iron Fist had an ab crunch & waist swivel combo for his torso instead (Sunfire buck), cause whenever you swivel the diaphragm joint it really messes up his look
I liked the new packaging segment and talking about where they'll go on the shelf. I found these mofos at GameStop in the mall I saw Deadpool 3 in opening weekend. Meant to be. Happy with my NEW New Avengers, got astonishing in this week from BBTS. My favorite team is finally coming together
Just opened the set while watching! Here are a few things I wanted to say, First off, great review Shart! Secondly, of course im not at home and won't be for a few days, so I can't easily compare, but as I was going over the Cage figure, his setup actually felt similar to the Punisher fig that came with the bike. But I'm sure this Cage is bigger, maybe just the arms are reused? or just built in a wicked similar style. Also, about the eyes on the screaming Luke Cage head, man yea the pupils are so drastically different than the stoic head, do his eyes brighten in any way when he's raging? I'm not the biggest Luke Cage guy so idk, could just be a factory thing. With the Iron Fist, Yeah, I wish the costume had the V cut, but if hasbro were to do that they would have had to paint little slices of green on the bare skin part, so rather than a whole other paint app step they just kept with the ab cut lines. I do wish we finally got some new flame effects, something thinner, more of a wispy trailing flame like the toybiz one but sculpted even better. They could just pressure fit around the hands as well. One last thing, I put the silver gauntlets from the Defenders Luke Cage on this new one and I love how it looks personally, accurate or not, they fit great still. The touch of silver near the gold knucks looks sweet imo.
Would be an almost perfect 2-pack if not for the paint app issues on virtually every Iron Fist. Never understand why some figs are just plagued with issues and others are consistently clean.
Seems like I wasn't the only one with the toe joint issue in 6:32, though I fixed mine just by pushing that loose part in the joint enough for it to fit back in like you have
Awesome review of two cool figures! I should have gotten this two-pack. I opted for the classic Power Man and I'm sorry I did. It looks awful on the shelf. My eyes go right to the armpits. It sucks.
Sold most of my TB long ago but IF was one I kept and holy crap, his ball shoulders and tiny head look so ridiculous now. Interesting what we could ignore for so long
I really want Hasbro to remake Tiger Shark the old one they made is great but with the new body molds and accessories they would absolutely kill it with a new Tiger Shark
I grabbed two of these packs, and both the Luke Cage figures had a bit of a gap on the left thigh swivel, so that seems to be a more widespread problem, though I managed to mostly minimize it on my second Luke.
It's incredible how people can call you lazy when they don't know you at all and have no idea how much effort it takes to make these videos while having a busy schedule. Some people just hate for no reason, probably because they are bummed about their lives
Man you really need to do stop motion How dare you stop it That’s all the people want! (I’m being sarcastic lol, love the vids man, watching for years, got me into collecting, keep up the good work!)
Not for me. I want the Toybiz ones with updated articulation in a two pack. Thats all. I dont like the bearded Luke Cage and I dont like Iron Fists costume. For someone like Cage whose powers are not visible you need some accessories that will communicate that otherwise it is just a lame male figure with a yellow shirt. How about some bullet effects on the body of Luke Cage
Yet another Hasbro figure of an agile martial artist where they refuse to give him a swivel at the waist. I used to like that Spider-Man body too but I’m sick of seeing it now.
