Great review. It’s nice to see some 1/18 scale love on UA-cam. I got a variety of items coming from this Kickstarter, but regret not buying more of the Wolf troopers and Gyre Wolves then. I’ll remedy that along with some Jungle Troopers when they are more readily available. One point. The ankle rocker you mentioned is best highlighted by the side to side swivel of the feet of the figure (not just the toe pointing) allowing one to stand the figure in more dynamic poses. This newer feature isn’t present on many figs in this scale and also not present on previous Marauder Task Force figs. Again, great review and I hope you review future Skeletron items as they come available.
Thanks very much. And for the point. I’ll definitely go over more items from this KS when they get in hand. I have an original Palitoy RoboSkull so was definitely gonna do a look at the two together
Niiiiiice! Seriously looking forward to these figures, and its going to be fun pulling out my 1/18th arsenal collection to see which "lasers" look good with these dudes.
Absolutely!!! I'd love to see them do what Acid Rain do with their vehicles.... A Shadowtrak, but with add ons that could change the purpose of the vehicle...
@@warpfrenzy well mine are modern construction figures so they feel like 25th/30th/50th JOEs. But I don’t have the o-ring Retro Wolf Trooper to tell you yes or no if you meant ARAH JOEs.
@@warpfrenzyI got my o ring Wolf Trooper yesterday and I can confirm it is like the weight and firmness of the old 3.75 inch Joes from the 80s n 90s with crisper, sharper sculpted details and wrist articulation. His jetpack holds half of his accessories and he has an alternate Skeletron head. The body construction is pretty much identical to the Joes' with a rubber o ring and screws holding the parts together.
These are some good looking Dollies. Glad they’re starting to get stuff in people’s hands. I might need to go back and try to get one of the O Ring figs if I can
Awesome and fun video! 16:27 to 16:35 😂😂😂 you have to be a blast to hang out with in RL! I can’t wait to get this stuff in hand and as an Imperial TIE Pilot, the Roboskull MkII vehicle was a no brainer for me, so looking forward to it. Keep making awesome videos man! 🎉
Yeah, fair enough. I considered it, but figured people knew the size of MGR figures vs modern construction JOEs. They’re comparable in size all around. And thank you 🙌🏼
Great vid Chad. I got a chance to look over my order this past weekend…wow are they stellar. The details and paint are ON POINT. The silver on the Gyre Wolf is probably the cleanest metallic I’ve seen in a very long time, probably the sharpest it can get before you move onto Vac-Metal, it’s just stunning. The accessories, packaging presentation, etc everything is just 10/10 and I can’t wait to get the actual RoboSkull and the rest of my 4in & 6in figures. 🤘🏻
Hey brother, awesome show. Love being a member and getting these extra bits. LoL. Need a favor...when you go live later, I'm sure you're gonna speak on these. Can you show them next to the Skeletron releases? I don't have any of them..missing out due to domestic crisis'. Thanks brother.
I backed it. Not sure where to put it anymore. My displays are full up with classified, Action Force and Jurassic Park. Plus all the other Ips I've picked up since backing it.
i dont think i bought any of the figures, they just didn't appeal to my personal taste and i think i was a little disappointed that the Wolf figure did not actually look like the vintage figure. but i also just was never as into army builder type figures, my favorite Joes and Cobras were always individual characters and the Noks are actually my favorites. i absolutely did get the Red Skull though as it is probably my favorite vehicle ever and i do not actually have one. the figures do look good though as in not cheap junk. cant wait for it to show up.
Yeah they’re definitely not cheap at all. And I hear what you’re saying about how they don’t look like the OG Palitoy figures, but they were also never supposed to.
@@Its.Chad. its no issue, i just really love how the Wolf figure looks and would have loved a modern style version of it. i preordered a bunch of those Eagle Force figures that remind me of something, would have been cool to add that to the set you know. lookin at your video after you put the helmet on it though, it is kind of nicer than i thought.
And that’s totally cool. If figures are something you’d be into - either 4” or 6” - they’ll have figures on their website available once backers get theirs.
Bobby needs figures like these in action force. Hes way to hero heavy right now. I need something new for bad guy troopers and such. If there's on thing Hasbro does well is give you plenty of enemy figs for the joes to face off with. I LOVE cobra troopers and almost all the various vipers. If a new viper comes out is usually get 2 although the gummy weapons and shit quality lately has had me severely cut back my classified purchases. Valaverse might cost more but there's not question who is pouting out a better product. I wouldn't even touch retro scarlet if both previous scarlets hadn't been such dudes. they cant even hold rifles properly thanks to the lack of double jointed elbows. Also could they have dropped giving her a cross bow as her only weapon? Its such a stupid cliche for girl toys . I like that they chgd her look but dear god look at action force on how to do a female military figure right hasbro. They are fantastic. Anyway nice figures. Cant wait to see the Roboskull when you get it?
Card art is soooo important. I love all these new companies doing 375, but they need some help in the graphics dept. And when it comes to cross-sell, just a group pic of the actual figures ala Kenner SW. It's ez. NOTHING will ever be a better value for your advertising dollar then to put a checklist style pic on the back of the box/card. It's mind-numbingly easy
Very nice. Kinfa wish this is how they did classified. If they did this at 19.99 Id have been all over it and maybe getting some of my joes back from my nephew if I could. 😂😂😂😂 Hes in his toys arent cool anymore phase so I'd just need to figure out how to get them past his old man. Officer Gregory is sharp but his wife hates clutter so I'd know my in. 😂😂
So, you enjoy these figures and have some nice things to say about them? Clearly you're a shill sir! for shame!! Jokes aside they look freaking awesome!!
Thank you for the review of our figures and for the support! The response has been amazing- more to come! 🏴☠
Thank you guys!!!
These are some dope figures. I didn’t back them but I’d be happy to pick them up when they become available. Have a AWSOME day good sir.
They will be made available after all the KS backers’ orders are fulfilled, my man!
YOU have an AWESOME DAAAAY!!!

they look great! looking forward to more from Skeletron!
Oh yeah - me too!!! I wanna see them tackle an updated Shadowtrak!!
Niiiiiice! Seriously looking forward to these figures, and its going to be fun pulling out my 1/18th arsenal collection to see which "lasers" look good with these dudes.
Very cool!!! Can’t wait til you get yours in hand 🤙🏼
Beautiful figures... the whole Kickstarter project as been an absolute triumph... I'd absolutely love to see them do some Red Shadow troops too.
Same!! Couldn’t agree with you more! I keep teasing Mark that they need to do an updated Shadowtrak, too
Absolutely!!! I'd love to see them do what Acid Rain do with their vehicles.... A Shadowtrak, but with add ons that could change the purpose of the vehicle...
@@dazblue5515 I’d be all for that!
These look so cool! Both are awesome, but the Gyre Wolf is 🔥🔥🔥
Oh yeah. They’re both rad in their own respects. Thanks as always!!
Okay now that was really cool figures Chad. And I did not back this on kickstarter.
Thank you, my man! The figures will be offered through their website after all the backer orders are fulfilled 🤙🏼 so there’s always time later.
Cylon Raiders are iconic, excelent video bro.
Many thanks, my man!! Yeah I miss the Cylons.
@@Its.Chad. Me too, Cylons deserve more love!!
@@erickteixeira7251 🙌🏼
Those figures look really good. The wolf trooper is such a really cool figure the detail is outstanding.
Yeah they’re really high quality. The detailing alone is rad.
Hay Chad I can't wait to get mine
You won’t be disappointed one bit! Thanks 🙏🏼
Upon opening the O-ring wolf trooper, I immediately regretted not ordering two or three more
They should be hitting the website after every backer gets their orders (should be)
Do these feel like the old joes? Firm plastic?
@@warpfrenzy well mine are modern construction figures so they feel like 25th/30th/50th JOEs. But I don’t have the o-ring Retro Wolf Trooper to tell you yes or no if you meant ARAH JOEs.

Their sidearms look really dope. All around great looking figures.
Yeah they’re just future-forward enough and the way the sidearms attach to the thigh is a great touch.
Great review looking forward to getting into mine this weekend.
Awesome! I’m sure you’re gonna love them. And thanks as always 🙏🏼
These are impressive. Good design & nice packaging.
They’re super high quality. No flimsy cards or anything
These are some good looking Dollies. Glad they’re starting to get stuff in people’s hands. I might need to go back and try to get one of the O Ring figs if I can
Do it, Doooouuuug!!! ❤️
They really do look cool Chad indeed great details on the helmets. 😎 The close ups near the end of your vid.🙂
Thanks!!! Gotta get that close up money shot! Haha
As a collector of the UK originals back in the day (that I still have) I am so pleasantly surprised how the U.S. market are bringing these back.
@@Paul_1971 yeah, for sure. I have all the Palitoy Red Shadow stuff too, but the updated modern articulation stuff is awesome, too.
Thanks for doing this brother. I appreciate it.
Thank YOU for checking it out 🙌🏼
Great review. I ordered a few of the six inch figures, so I have to wait a few more months. But it is nice to see how the 4 inch figures turned out.
I hope you’re as happy with yours as I am with the 1:18.
Dang it Chad i was going to get one of the 6" Geyer Wolf but after this video i am going to have to army build him
Oooooh boy. Do it!!
Great video. Figure stands are cool, great idea/concept. really good articulation on the figure. I'm impressed.
I’m glad you enjoyed it. Yeah, they’re spot on awesome!
These are incredible figures! So glad I backed it!
Saaaame!!!!
These figures look badass
They are that pinnacle of modern 4” figures without getting into the $$$expensive ones. MGR, FMF, and these guys have it dialed in.
Got to get me some to add to my red shadows army
They fit right in! If you need me to grab you some, let me know!
Great video man! Dooooooo it
Thanks, Steve-Dave!! ❤
Cool! Pretty excited to get mine after watching this!!
😘👍🏼 can’t wait for you to get them!!
@@Its.Chad. 😘👍
Awesome and fun video! 16:27 to 16:35 😂😂😂 you have to be a blast to hang out with in RL! I can’t wait to get this stuff in hand and as an Imperial TIE Pilot, the Roboskull MkII vehicle was a no brainer for me, so looking forward to it. Keep making awesome videos man! 🎉
😂 thanks, Mython. Truly. Was that time period the ‘Berzerker’ part?
@@Its.Chad. 🤣 yuuuuuuup!!!
@@MythonThePython 😂😉 gotta have fun with dollies, my man!!!
@@Its.Chad. amen to that! 🫡
Those are awesome the paint apps look amazing just an all around awesome figures
Oh yeah, the paint apps are immaculately detailed.
Thank you, couldn't find a review on these figs. They're arriving tomorrow. Edit: just got them in the mail
Really? Nobody else??
Those are super cool. Wonder if they'll sell them on there sight like they did the skelladrones
They will. Once the fulfillment of each release wave is 100% complete, they put items on the site.
@@Its.Chad. this is gonna hurt my wallet
@@hillbillyharper4008 yeah….yep 😂
Is it me or do the legs seem a bit extended? I would love to see them beside other 25th figures for a height comparison. Great channel!
Yeah, fair enough. I considered it, but figured people knew the size of MGR figures vs modern construction JOEs.
They’re comparable in size all around.
And thank you 🙌🏼
Awesome figs, thanks for sharing these are great.
Thanks for taking the time to check it out!

Got mine the other day, so fricking cool.
Awesome!! I’m glad you got them in hand!
I got a chance to see roboskull in person. WOW!!! I bought the o’ring figure. And I just preordered the roboskull.
Nice. Glad you finally got a chance to see it in person.
Ooooooo! These are nice! Bodes well for the Roboskull Mk 2. I didn't get any of these, but I did add a 4" Skeletron to my Backerkit.
Very cool!! They’ll have em available if you ever change your mind, too.
@@Its.Chad. Yeah, I think I'm going to have to pick up a couple!
Hey brother, awesome show. Love being a member and getting these extra bits. LoL.
Need a favor...when you go live later, I'm sure you're gonna speak on these. Can you show them next to the Skeletron releases? I don't have any of them..missing out due to domestic crisis'. Thanks brother.
Thanks, my man. So you wanna see the Skeletron figures with the Fresh Monkey Fiction figures side by side?
I’m already subscribed! I can’t subscribe any further!😂😂
Super 🚔’s
😂 I know and of course thanks for the support always!
Those are 2 Kick-ass Dollies! Thanks for sharing Chad! I missed this Kickstarter.
They’re up for sale on Skeletron’s site now. And thank you 🙏🏼
@@Its.Chad. Thanks for the info!
I backed it. Not sure where to put it anymore. My displays are full up with classified, Action Force and Jurassic Park. Plus all the other Ips I've picked up since backing it.
And I can fully understand that, my man. This thing is HUGE (that’s what she said!). I’m gonna have to move stuff to accommodate…and I got two. Ugh
Great video Chad these figures look amazing
Thanks, my friend. They’re great for sure!!
Im starting to worry about getting the 6” figs I ordered from this kickstarter. Should I be worried?
I wouldn’t be worried. They posted an update that it’s on track to deliver when they scheduled it.
@@Its.Chad. kk thanks! I’m horrible at checking my Kickstarter updates.

He could’ve bought ‘Red Shadows’ and all that, but opted to not because his Action Force is an homage but different.
Not my thing but I enjoyed the video nonetheless
And see - that’s cool. Thanks, Jim!!! 🙏🏼

Thanks for the comment and I completely agree that card/box art are all important. That’s when toys are at their maximum competition with other lines.

But go get your figures back from the nephew! 🤙🏼
