In case no one has mentioned this already--Shocker was originally going to be called "The Vibrator," which is why there there are "V" designs integrated into his outfit. Thankfully someone pointed out how that name would not be good to use, but the costume was set.
Well, thank goodness they reconsidered and came up with a new name completely removed from anything that could be considered having an alternate, sexual meaning.
I’m loving the attention to detail my dude. I love those Gundam markers. Your pretty much painting in the details with a pin point accuracy. Great vid as always. Thanks
That ending skit was great, we need more Robo on the porch. I get home after working having just found the Marvel Legends comic Doctor Strange, get the notification from Pulse that my Skrulls are arriving later today and there's a Fwoosh review, great way to round off the day. I agree about Shocker, as good as he is something is a bit off but I'm not sure what. I don't like the mismatched yellows, he does feel pretty light and there's a slight cheapness to it, I can't pinpoint my exact issue (actually I think it's all in the paint). I can't help but really like Hobgoblin though, I never found that last version and whilst he is a little overly bright, the new one still works great up on my Spider-Man villains shelf. I feel like the Goblin figures could maybe use new body sculpts, I never cared for the look of the scaled limbs that are a bit too modern for me and they need more articulation and better gliders.
Did the exact same thing to my Shocker. Same pen too. I tried grey first, didn't look right. Takes the figure up to 11 for me. While I wish Hasbro would have done this out the gate, I don't mind putting in a bit of work on a $25 figure.
I thought about gray but yeah, the brown blends better with the yellow. And really, neither do I, been touching up figures for almost 30 years, it's a big part of the hobby itself for me at this point.
Even if it's 25 the cheapos at hasbro didn't have to penny pinch this much those lines should have been a given I waited years for shocker but not giving them money for this sub par figure it we start holding them to a higher standard this would not happen
great review and a perfect clean up tool for panel lining shocker is a q tip and some rubbing alcohol just a dab and it wipes away excess easy and dries quick
I need to get some practice working around the camera like that, I'm used to doing that kind of stuff right up in my face, but I may have to make it a regular thing. Was fun!
Now that I have other colors than black I'm hunting through the shelves looking for more things to panel line, get some practice in and some use out of these markers!
Man, these reviews got me to buy my first action figure, which arrived in the mail today. Thanks to this channel I am now enjoying a Snake eyes figure!
Wow! The crunch cut is So in your face in the lighter colored torsos. And I would prefer a ball joint under it instead of the swivel. I didn't watch the animated Spidey show either (cuz I was in my mid to late 20's) but they're pretty reminiscent of the late 70's early 80's comic looks.
I think I prefer the colors on the older Hobgoblin you showed off, but if I were looking to upgrade that Classic Hobgoblin, I'd probably swap the shoulders and legs from the old one... The simpler design makes sense for an animation homage, but the scaly armor detailing would just bump the classic figure over the edge for me
I had the old toybiz Hobgoblin from when I was a kid, however when I was a kid I lost the hood and the glider and I ripped the pumpkin bomb off of his hand so he was a very naked goblin. But then this new Hobgoblin came out and I took literally all of his removable accessories, ie cape, hood, satchel, glider, pumpkin bomb and put it on that old toybiz body and it looks damn good. The hood and cape are kind of bright for it but it works oddly enough and it's now one of my favorite pieces in my collection.
Jesuschrist, Robo, you actually recorded yourself painting the lines. That must have been troublesome, much respect for the extra effort on this video!
I don't mind the snazzy colours on Hobgoblin but they should've used the original goblin mould and given him a bigger glider. Shocker looks great apart from the lack of detail lines on the quilting. I'm surprised he's shorter than Hobby.
Shocker looks really good so I’ll definitely get him but hob goblin is pretty much the let down of the whole wave but I’ll still get him just to have him maybe
Those paint pens take a little while to fully set, so hopefully this tip doesn't reach you too late. Take a standard eraser and give the Shocker a lil rubdown. I'm sure you noticed that when you would fix a line with your finger, you'd stain the square you rubbed it onto. But If the paint hasn't fully set, you can literally erase all of your mistakes. A rubber eraser is a Gundam marker's best friend.
I see people doing the lines in black, and thats like a POW statement on him. I'm glad you went with the brown. It added so much without being hard to look at.
The added lines makes the figure pop even more. Looks awesome I was interested in purchasing Shocker but I rather the lines be painted, also I can't be bothered doing the line I'd probably screw it up. Cool video robo
I REALLY dig that Hobgoblin. For an old guy like me, he's 100% Mattel Secret Wars-inspired, and the perfect companion piece for 1980s Symbiote Spider-Man.
Robo just lightly rub a q tip in some light isopropyl (as dry as possible ) and scrub the lines gently they will fade and blend nicely :) and he looks pretty clean for your first attempt you should try that on your transformers they give them major pop !
That was a some great customization music. And just that little bit of detail really makes the figure pop. And with it being a padded suit like that, you can always say the smudges are where he was in a fight. Not a big fan of the Hobgoblin, though. Weakest figure in the wave.
I know it's bootlicker logic, but I actually enjoy doing the Gundam pen work on characters like Ben Grimm and Shocker. There's just enough room for creativity without requiring real modding skill, and it's satisfyingly zen. Like an adult coloring book.
Naw, not bootlicker, it's just what you enjoy. Because I enjoy it too. The challenge, the pay off, the unique individual look of something in the display, the artistry.
Damn Robo , now I'm going to have to get a gundam maker and do that. Great review. And thanks for doing the lines on it.so we can see how it works. And I'm looking forward to the weekly and how you feel about the DarkTroopers
Man, he looks so much better lined out, gonna need to do the same. Watched a video where someone uses a white eraser to do cleanup after. Love your stuff.
Excellent lesson in panel lining in this video. Would love to see more tutorials from you. Also a small tour of Your collection I hope is in the cards someday. Was disappointed you didn’t have older flying figures hanging around the porch.
Either the brown or maybe a shade of orange is the best color for the panel lines. Something about the black makes it look way to prominent. Great vid uncle Robo!!
Cushion for pushin' , hmm, some sort of innuendo maybe? 🤔 Definite improvement with the lines colored in. If I'm not mistaken you can use a rubber eraser to remove the panel liner from the areas you don't want it.
Robo I'm dying I just got a black Gundam marker to do some accent work on my action figures with metal legs and whatnot as soon as you went out the lines I laughed cuz I have that problem all the time and you're all over the place too thank God that that marker wiped away really nice it's is a great product though I would like to get more. (This past was made while building a house ty to ask who were able to decipher it and I have since edited it so a all normal folk may read. ) may the fwoosh be with you
Love the Will o' the Wisp reference. That's my most wanted Legend. My bad custom plan is to put a Legends Sentry head on the new Havok body coming out, add some power effects and try to convince myself it looks like him.
Right there with ya, Robo. I really dig the Ben Reilly Spider-man costum, but aside from that, its all Shocker, baby. I know he is a C-lister, but I have loved him ever since seeing him on Spider-man and His Amazing Friends, back in the 80's. I even plan to accentuate those lines. I had an inkwash in mind. Never tried it before though. Hope I don't screw it up. First I need to buy the figure. Thought it wasn't out until April.
With the extra price point that Marvel Legends are going for these days, Hob Goblin is unfortunately an easy pass. If only they kept the scales for the arms as they did for Green Goblin.
Having gotten it the boots that don’t let you use the glider is by far the killer of this figure. If they remodeled the glider to look more like the cartoon and add a peg hole (No excuse not to) then it would have been fine. As is the glider is completely worthless.
@@patientmental875 More to do with balancing it on the small glider without it falling over, it’s hard to pose on it and if it were the size of say the demo goblin glider with a base it would be okay.
I got some Spider-man encyclopedia in the late 90s that introduced me to a lot of spider-mans rogue outside of the cartoon. Will o the wisps was one of them. Along with spidey's 4 other super hero identities, Captain Universe and all other insanity. Wonder where that's gotten to but was full of potential figure goodness
Fun review as always, Robo. I was wondering whether I should hit up my Shocker with some panel liner when it arrives, and I think I will now. I also have some plans for that hobgoblin which involve that retro green goblin with the goofy face. I think that with a paint job and limb swap it might look pretty spiffy in the end.
@@TheFwoosh Not really much I can do about the head, maybe a wash and a re-paint. The limbs are my primary concern, since I do want the scale mail look and those feet have to change to be usable with the glider. Just took a look at how much that retro GG is going for. It's nuts. I'm lucky I already have one and the previous GG figure from the Sandman wave to fill the slot.
Kudos for doing the Shocker lining. I tried a few times and gave up - just couldn't stay in the lines and it was looking awful 😓 Might give it another try after seeing this video 😊🤞🏻
When I'm listening to a Fwoosh review I need to hear "forward-facing pin for rocker" and "kick [their] own ass" and when applicable "better than some Spider-Men". It's not a satisfying Fwoosh review without at least one of these.
I did this with my NWH/FFH Spider-man tech suit, neither one of those had any web lines painted. It looks like a happy meal toy until you hit it with those lines
I'm so happy with the Shocker figure. One of my first Spider-Man comics had him as a B-story villain in the background and the character just got stuck in my mind. I will be keeping mine as is, but your line work is amazing and very tempting to mimic.
I've thought about it but I usually have to get closer and use more tools, the camera in the way usually annoys me. I may work on some more videos like that though.
@@TheFwoosh maybe you could get an overhead camera rig so that it’s on in the way and maybe one of those magnifying lamps so you don’t have to get so close. Those things don’t come cheap, but maybe in the future it’s an investment you might be willing to make 🤷🏻♂️ Your videos are top notch and I genuinely get excited whenever you have an overview or weekly. Please don’t stop making content.
Still love the figures but would think the with the cost we spend for these figures today over just past decade mean prices def jumped a lot more then any other time and it seems the paint quality and some of the sculpts just aren’t near the quality we got years ago, even decades ago with some figures. And we paid a lot less back then for em. Granted the articulation is alot better I feel then past but even that isn’t really all that true with some figures back then to. Just feels like so many other things today. People want more $ for less quality and effort in figures, work and alot of things. Shame. Seems backwards to me
The other way to fill in the lines is to brush over them and wipe away the excess, but I'm good with having them not filled in. Unlike Spider-Man's web lines, these are just meant to be texture.
I've build dozens of Gundam kits & panel lining is a must to make your kits details pop up. But I much prefer the pour type marker where the ink would fill in the lines by itself.
I think if I panel lined Shocker, I’d do a yellow that’s slightly darker than the main quilt plastic. The brown just feels too much and not like stitching. Having a darker yellow might help it blend better.
the V on the belt is because of the technology of the suit. I forget what it's called exactly, "vibro" something like "vibrotech" or "vibrosuit". I can't remember the specifics but there you go.
Honestly, with the hobb goblins glider instead of putting stirrups on the glider, they really should've considered pegs. Put the pegs where the Stir ups are in that way, the hobb gobbling will be able to stand on it that's what should have been done honestly enough with the stirrups. I know that the goblins have these hope feet, but no stance, I mean, pigs like a pig stand they need picks they would do so much better, at least in my opinion, so much better. Also, those eyes are actually supposed to be yellow. It could have gone with the same colored eyes that the pumpkin bomb has still not bad. I would have three d printed a glider though honestly just saying
Since a scalemail body mold already exists for this character, it wouldn't have needed to be added. Hasbro actually subtracted it for some baffling reason.
@@alandoane9168 I assume it was to define them as two distinct versions. They're basically using the same molds of his rogues gallery but the animated version and that version probably was just wearing clothe pants. But I agree the "scalemail" is a more visually appealing look.
The lines on the Shocker look a lot better painted. I don't think the figure needs it when up close, but on a shelf the lines really pop when filled in.
In case no one has mentioned this already--Shocker was originally going to be called "The Vibrator," which is why there there are "V" designs integrated into his outfit. Thankfully someone pointed out how that name would not be good to use, but the costume was set.
I’m imagining a conversation of Spider-Man learning about this and just goes into mocking shocker more than he normally would 😆
Well, thank goodness they reconsidered and came up with a new name completely removed from anything that could be considered having an alternate, sexual meaning.
Totally missed the opportunity to be some single lady’s favorite villain.
@@Squigiman😭
The Shocker "shocks" his oppenents by projecting sound-based waves...
What does The Vibrator do, "vibrate" his opponents? 💀
That last shot after you hit the shocker with the Gundam marker, perfection
It wasn't until then that I really knew I was happy. Through most of the lining I was worried that I wouldn't.
@@TheFwoosh I did the same thing with a black marker on my Spider-Verse Peter B Parker and it really adds a lot

@@waleslandofdragons8842 true. Though it's an easy fix, the consumer shouldn't have to fix it. Hasbro needs to stop getting cheap on us.
Shocker was always a favourite of mine. Really dig his costume, which is why I was disappointed how carelessly he was adapted into the mcu.

Best HobGoblin / Mark Hamill line : “You’re just in time, .. for your funeral!! (Joker Laughter) “

Keep us posted.
How is Hobgoblin a let down he looks just as he does in the animated series
I dunno. Would have liked Shocker better if he had painted lines in the sculpt.

loving the new shocker fig....im still debating on filling in the pattern to make it stand out more one mine
Absolutely love what the marker did for shocker. Quick and the end result was so satisfying.

Very nice review!
I really appreciate seeing the custom work!
Adding those lines really enhances the value of that figure.
Every once in a while they put out a great figure and shocker is that.

Using a Brown Gundam marker on Shocker is a cool idea and figure looks great with it... I used Black and it also looks Amazing
Oh yeah, I like the look of the ones that use black too.
AYYYY
Loved the ending of you watch BOBF lmaoo
Amazing review, and customization to the Shocker keep up the good work
Hasbro Hobgoblin will never defeat the Toybiz figure.
That figure's a masterpiece! Especially the face sculpt!
Yeah, 100% agree with you. The face especially on the Toybiz looks so much better.
Just ordered these with the amazing fantasy Spider-Man the collection’s gonna love them!!
Job well down. Chillin on da porch.
Great reviews🔥🔥 loved the time-lapse

The other way to fill in the lines is to brush over them and wipe away the excess, but I'm good with having them not filled in. Unlike Spider-Man's web lines, these are just meant to be texture.
I agree with you, I’d love to see a Will O The Wisp and a Rocket Racer figure.
I've build dozens of Gundam kits & panel lining is a must to make your kits details pop up. But I much prefer the pour type marker where the ink would fill in the lines by itself.
I think if I panel lined Shocker, I’d do a yellow that’s slightly darker than the main quilt plastic. The brown just feels too much and not like stitching. Having a darker yellow might help it blend better.
the V on the belt is because of the technology of the suit. I forget what it's called exactly, "vibro" something like "vibrotech" or "vibrosuit". I can't remember the specifics but there you go.
WELL DONE! i was thinking to myself “i could’ve sworn i just saw that new shocker fig with the lines colored in.” so when i saw the marker come out i was stoked. nice time lapse & result. theese are great & love the line so far as well, BUT while it’s fun to make things better & your own, HASBRO should’ve done these things for us. I mean the pics of what the figs supposed to be representing are all right there next to em! that being said, i have seen some really rad Hobgoblin headsculpts that people have done for this figure (as well as the glider), that give him his signature brow & red eyes that he sports in the show. it’s a shame because they could’ve given us that face, still kept the tooling for the hat and that would’ve been fine. i guess we were spoiled by the first waves and the great job they did on TAS Green Goblin yknow? in the end you know i still have em & maybe now i’ll take the time & open Shocker and trick him out. not as easy with HG, though i’m sure people are hawkin’ TAS heads, i usually don’t go in for those for my Legends. also a big fan of those older “dingy” Legends Hobgoblin & Green Goblin & they’re definitely my favorites. ✌🏼©.
They can always release the head we want with a figure we don’t, kinda like the BAF head with Kitty Pryde or the Shadow King head with Professor X.
I actually dig that whole Professor X set & was into it as I had the kingpin BAF! but i understand your point.
christopherNTSC. I wrote that late at night and didn’t want to change the front of the sentence lol
Honestly, with the hobb goblins glider instead of putting stirrups on the glider, they really should've considered pegs. Put the pegs where the Stir ups are in that way, the hobb gobbling will be able to stand on it that's what should have been done honestly enough with the stirrups. I know that the goblins have these hope feet, but no stance, I mean, pigs like a pig stand they need picks they would do so much better, at least in my opinion, so much better. Also, those eyes are actually supposed to be yellow. It could have gone with the same colored eyes that the pumpkin bomb has still not bad. I would have three d printed a glider though honestly just saying
The Hobgoblin could have gotten some chainmail texture added to the blue parts of his costume but I'm just glad I have a version of the character.
Since a scalemail body mold already exists for this character, it wouldn't have needed to be added. Hasbro actually subtracted it for some baffling reason.
@@alandoane9168 I assume it was to define them as two distinct versions. They're basically using the same molds of his rogues gallery but the animated version and that version probably was just wearing clothe pants. But I agree the "scalemail" is a more visually appealing look.
The lines on the Shocker look a lot better painted. I don't think the figure needs it when up close, but on a shelf the lines really pop when filled in.
