Hasbro's marketing strategy today seems like, they sell you the variant first before the actual figure people want. Cause they figured that sales of variants after the main figure takes a dip. Kinda sleazy cause they are taking advantage of the love the fans have for these figures.
I think collectors are catching on and it seems like figures are easier to find now since people aren’t picking them up as quick knowing a variant will be coming down the line
See the Ai tony I appreciate cause I missed out on the 80th anniversary one. So I bought it and customised the chest reactor and the eyes and mouth to look like a comic accurate Ironman as opposed to an Alex Ross realistic look. That’s not I’ll will to Alex, he’s an extremely talented artist and the figure is amazing, I just didn’t want that colour scheme
@@DisplayingModelBehaviour My only issue is I snapped the Right Repulsor Hand off due to some dried paint getting stuck inside, causing there to be more friction resulting in the plastic tearing! Managed to salvage it but they really need to give those hands similar solid joints to regular hands
They all really truly sucked, just because you like the character does not make them good they could have done a lot better on all 25, I can't believe I skipped all 25
David, you donned the cruel shoes and tapped dance on my heart. I own four of the figures on your list. That's not the bad part though. The awful thing is that I really, really like those four figures. Three of them are in my top ten of the year. Oh, the shame!
How dumb I am: Hasbro: Here's a re paint She-Hulk > Meh, I'll just wait for the classic costume She-Hulk Hasbro: BUT, she also comes with a head that looks like Megan Fox as She-Hulk >... how much are we talking about? Hasbro: of course you do, you simp
Now this is only my opinion, but most of these figures weren't even that bad... I can see complaints about the over abundant repaints we had, but Psycho Man! High Evolutionary! Shriek!? How the heck do you not have fun with those figures? Honestly, sometimes I think people take collecting a little too seriously and feel entitled to nitpick just because they can.
I think sending our money gives us the right to nit pick. If they were customs I'd say "Well done mate" But they're asking for £22 each so with that in mind i'll call em like I see em.
The problem with the Eternals figures is that they should be toyetic in some ways with the colours and designs, but they aren’t. Also the characters are more like supporting characters rather than A listers aswell which probably doesn’t help
He should have been a shoo-in for one of the best figures of the year, instead it was just meh. Sold mine off within a couple of weeks of buying the wave.
29:00 with the black and gold suit I have my own head cannon idea for the suit that I use. This is a Spiderman, post symbiote suit, that has lost his cool and doesn't hold back his punches.
Oh man… every time I watch one of your vids, I always find myself disagreeing with everything you say. That being said, still subbed, still enjoy your perspective, still upvoting that content.
The knees on that aoa2 Cyclops are the same as Aoa Xman, they are the worst knees on any marvel legend I've encountered thus far. Love your vids dude, you rock. Your voice rocks, you're wholesome and i really appreciate you. Happy new year!
Nice ranking! I must agree with it because I skipped damn near every figure you mentioned, lol. Only figures I have are the Animated Venom (which I got for free from Hasbro after complaining about QC issues on my Sabretooth), Cyber (who I would not have purchased as a stand alone figure), Vault Guardsman (bought for the BAF piece, then immediately sold the figure), and Hologram Iron Man (also bought for the BAF piece, but I'll probably keep him since I have a large Iron Man collection). Loved all the points you made too. Completely valid... great video! Happy New Year!
I love that AI Tony Stark Figure. The Venom figure is going for a crazy after market price, but regardless we need more influencers with post like you did here, Dave. Did anyone else catch the last fan first? It made me sick that the legends team was getting a laugh out of the fact that they’re releasing another wolverine. These guys know we were all going to drop the money because we want the BAF. They need to hear when they release garbage and people need to stop buying poor repaints. Maybe when they profits go down they’ll start listening.
Only Sue was genuinely bad. High Evolutionary is too short and doesn't have enough paint, but I do like Psycho Man quite a bit. He's my mind's-eye version for sure.
Dave that Pysho man is a perfect depiction for that character, if you look in the comic books he doesn't have any real face expressions because that's only armor I know I know on the cartoon animated face moving stuff but in a comic books that's exactly how you look
I have quite a few kitbashed into other characters, and the weapons that come with it are quite nice, dick bullets aside. Not a one is displayed as The Hood, because the cloak is too big for the figure and the head sculpt sucks. Also, DICK BULLETS.
Aww I understand the frustration about She Hulk being just a repaint but she was my favorite figure!! The calm face came out SO GOOD!!! Also, she scales perfectly with MCU figures so I can pretend she is from the upcoming Disney+ show haha 😌 (Can’t wait!)
I like the Shriek and Maestro figures, but Maestro should have come with some trophies, I agree. I got the Spiderman 2099 figure, but only for the retro style packaging really.
I actually really liked shriek. :( Tho i admit i bought it cuz the figure looked cool and i know nothing of the character. Its a testament to the new female body i think.
My holographic Iron Man fell apart. The front part of his torso falls off letting his arms fall out and the back part of his torso can fall out. I don’t want to keep the figure but I don’t want to give a broken figure to someone who doesn’t deserve it.
That retro Sue needs the spare Emma Frost head that doesn’t have the sneering expression. Big hair Sue is not my aesthetic. Even the four inch legends has that Emma’s straight, short style.
That's why I don't like Marvel legends anymore. Weak to no paint,figures look cheap,new sculpt is rare, lack of accessories, overpriced for what you get
@@DisplayingModelBehaviour I’m guessing you ordered the whole wave? Ouch. I wonder if Hasbro does that because they need another figure to build the bonus guy? You’d think there’d be a D-list Spider-Man villain they could throw together. Does Vermin have a figure yet?
Come on Dave! that Shriek is not that bad bro. There is something very important about that figure. It is Hasbro's 1st female buck with double elbow/knee pinless articulation.
Yeah, It kind of looks like you could almost customize Shriek as a Housewife from the Stepford Wives movies... I don't think that's what they were going for.
All my local major nation wide super chains like Wal-Mart, Target, and Gamestop have all those Eternals figures, and they've all remained on the pegs for months now because no one wants them. You know who knew better than to get them? One of my locally owned toy specialty shops who gets pretty much every figure in every Marvel Legends wave each year....but not that one. Probably because the shop owner/operator knew no one wanted them! I actually bought that Spider-Man 2099 figure today. It's my first Spider-Man figure. I missed out on the animated series Spidey. By major collector's standards, I'm somewhat new to Marvel Legends. I'm a DC guy. I also haven't been collecting figures long enough or don't care enough to know what to look for in terms of quality. But, the thing that really makes me very nervous with Marvel Legends figures, which I've never had issue with in McFarlane's DC line, is the soft, bendable feel to the double jointed elbows and knees. Instead of the joint moving at the rotation point, sometimes it just bends the plastic in the direction you're pulling and I'm afraid the joint is going to pop. What's crazy is that the mechanics of the Spider-Man 2099 figure isn't that great in the hips. The butt blocks a lot of leg movement range, and the way the hips of the leg piece is constructed means you can't pull the leg out to the side that much. How can I put my DC Shriek (which I LOVE) into a great crouching with one leg out and one hand on the ground pose, and I can't even put SM2099 in the same pose, despite the fact that he comes with sticking to surface hands? I feel slight buyer's remorse for SM2099, because I payed full price. I did manage to get the Black Panther which comes with the pink fist energy effects and interchangeable head (and I really like him) and the underwear only, super jacked Namor with the ridiculous trident (also really like). Since I had an extra black DC stand, I used the flight stand that Red Son Superman comes with and put Namor in it for a swimming while throwing trident pose. Looks fantastic!! Probably should've picked up that vintage style Captain America with the throwing shield effect, but someone snatched that up real quick. I kinda want that Professor X with the helmet, but I saw some toy UA-camr put him on their list of worst figures because they claim it's lazy to re-use a Spider-Man buck for his body. But, besides that, is the figure good? I'm trying to avoid X-Men characters. I rather like my Maestro figure, the recently released one. Did anyone else have issues with that sticky dust like glaze on their Stealth Suit Iron Man? A UA-camr and someone I met in the shop today both mentioned it. All these figures are just too much at this time. I can't get the McFarlane DC figures that are my top priority AND the Marvel Legends figures that I want. It's a crazy volume.
I don't even know their names, but i bought green eternals chick for like $6 @ walmart, air brushed some green in her hair and used a metallic gundam marker on some spots and she's now a background hydra troop.
i actually love the Black and Gold suit Spidey figure!!! it´s amazing, but i wish it wasn´t part of a BAF wave because now i just have a leg sitting on my shelf lol
modok didnt sell due to the packaging. in box collectors like myself have no use for him.. i only have him due to the cheep price i got him for from popfix toys
Well I disagree with alot on here but it's all good my friend. 😁👍 Yes I hear you with with not giving us the figure we want like she HULK, I think there giving use modern looks then making the classic look, Strange is proof of that I'm sure we will get the jump suit she HULK but I do like the sculpt of the ripped look.👍 I'm ok with repaints or using same parts as long as they look like the characters, but I do see your point that it looks like they went with a cheap fast way to put them out. And I agree with Eternals the movie was just bad, and when the actor is craping on it.🤷🏽♂️😆 But hey my friend good top worst 😁👍 Happy New Year can't wait for more from you and keep displaying model behavior! 😁🤚
Lmao...hella funny intro...nice one Dave I must agree with this list...you definitely are entertaining my guy...wish I could go back and forth with you (pause) on a top 10 list with Brock and the fellas but maybe next year...cheers my boi, its all in good fun!👊🏿🤣
A lot of the opinions on this list I agree (especially sue storm oh god that head) but personally I really liked the psycho man figure since I think the limited possibility works for the character and I think his paints quite nice but the figure isn’t perfect and you give some valid reasons but personally I love this figure, sorry for all this text.

Spot on! The sole reason I don’t buy Marvel Legends anymore
You are absolutely correct!
I think collectors are catching on and it seems like figures are easier to find now since people aren’t picking them up as quick knowing a variant will be coming down the line
That's 100% the logic. I'm not playing that game any more.
Bro, it's business, if you know this is the strategy, show some restraint, then get the actual figure
See the Ai tony I appreciate cause I missed out on the 80th anniversary one.

Sue's face looks like her reaction when she just entered a bathroom where the Thing just finished using. LOL
Lol that's the one
When you're doing a list of the worst figures, you simply need to have some negativity! Yet you still did it with enthusiasm. Well done.
Lol enthusiastic negativity is my brand :)
@@DisplayingModelBehaviour And we love you for it. :-) Kind of reminds me of that Addams Family humor.
That entire Eternals wave was just horrendous!
Yeah really bad call
What would you have preferred what could they have done differently
I was offended by the entire first half. But he had a good point for everything I was mad about
Lol that's fair enough!
They all really truly sucked, just because you like the character does not make them good they could have done a lot better on all 25, I can't believe I skipped all 25
The Eternals would’ve been a scalpers dream if they would’ve just gave them their street clothes
Ah a missed opportunity
I honestly could watch your constructive criticism chats regarding Marvel Legends all day Dave 👍
Plenty more to come in 2022!
David, you donned the cruel shoes and tapped dance on my heart. I own four of the figures on your list. That's not the bad part though. The awful thing is that I really, really like those four figures. Three of them are in my top ten of the year. Oh, the shame!
Lol I don't do it to be mean ;)
Then why do all the villains have English accents?
Why do you care? These are terrible takes lol
I saw someone turn the hood figure into a changing Bruce Banner and it looked great.
That works really well!
Psycho Man? Really? I thought he looked great. He was the only figure I wanted front that wave lol
He's the best one in the entire wave, followed by the flamed-on Johnny.
Hey we all judge these subjectively. He might be good :)
Alan Doane if the flame-offed one I have is that good, then that one must be great!
Maybe they should start having polls for what figures get made next.
That never ends well.

>... how much are we talking about?

The invisible woman head sculpt single handedly made me not get the entire F4 wave
It's not her fault her parents were brother and sister.

Honestly I can see that!
A couple things missed:
AOA Cyclops: Where the heck is his stubble?!
Guardsman: The head is just the Eel head with a soft plastic overlay. Lazy
I never realised that was eel!
Crazy to think there was at least 25 bad figures in one year, from one series!
Now this is only my opinion, but most of these figures weren't even that bad... I can see complaints about the over abundant repaints we had, but Psycho Man! High Evolutionary! Shriek!? How the heck do you not have fun with those figures?
Honestly, sometimes I think people take collecting a little too seriously and feel entitled to nitpick just because they can.
@@austiny6019 since this is the internet, let me comment how WRONG you are...
It's not *only* your opinion, as others feel the same way 😁😉
I agree with Cyber, easily my worse figure of the year.
@@lareh5501 **sigh** 🙄🙄🙄😄
I think sending our money gives us the right to nit pick. If they were customs I'd say "Well done mate" But they're asking for £22 each so with that in mind i'll call em like I see em.
That Sue Storms........ needs a paper bag accessory
No, it needs two. One to puke into if you happen to look at it before you get the other one on her head.
Bring on bag man!
Wouldn't even call Cyber passable, he reminds me of why Marvel Legends still resemble a childs poop half the time.
Yeah I can see that
The problem with the Eternals figures is that they should be toyetic in some ways with the colours and designs, but they aren’t. Also the characters are more like supporting characters rather than A listers aswell which probably doesn’t help
Also the movie failed 😄
If they had done Kirby-accurate comic versions, they'd all be 60 bucks a pop on eBay already.
You're right!
Kro Gilgamesh makkari ikaris druig are pretty fine to me
Eternal sucked! Looked nothing like the Kirby designs.
My biggest complaint about the Guardsman figure is the limbs feel soooo stiff, also agree the accessories are lacking.
I thought it was just my figure with the stuff joints!
He should have been a shoo-in for one of the best figures of the year, instead it was just meh. Sold mine off within a couple of weeks of buying the wave.
Yeah mine is too
I always thought that new she hulk looked like one of those candies that you didn’t like when you go to your moms friends house for a party

That's my 2022 resolution. No more buying cheap repaints.
They modeled the mystro after the avengers game design
Maestro? Straight from the Old Man Logan comics, m'lord.
Either way it's the easiest version
Only a minute into this video/podcast and I'm already hooked by this hosts humor and presentation! I'm impressed.
Hey thanks so much man. Glad you enjoyed the show!
I managed to kit bash my Aoa Cyclops with Aoa Magnitos boots,it looks quite good
That's a good swap
I like She-Hulk in that outfit even if it’s not from anything I’d rather have those torn up clothes than her swimsuit lookin thing
A world of this.
Bring on the swim suit look!
I really hope Hasbro steps it up next year. The more I think the more I realize how many disappointing figures there were this year.
Yeah, come on lads, step up your game!
I'm so mad that we finally got a non exclusive F4 wave and it was bad.
Only Sue was genuinely bad. High Evolutionary is too short and doesn't have enough paint, but I do like Psycho Man quite a bit. He's my mind's-eye version for sure.
Yeah that was a swing and a miss
Mullet haircut had me 🤣🤣. I would have to disagree with psycho man. That fig is awesome
I can appreciate that
Ah, so THAT'S why each Eternals figure was $6.89 at Target. .
Lol and now you know :)
Dave that Pysho man is a perfect depiction for that character, if you look in the comic books he doesn't have any real face expressions because that's only armor I know I know on the cartoon animated face moving stuff but in a comic books that's exactly how you look
Hmmm that's a very fair asessment.
Just want to say that the phrase “random shouting man” really made me laugh.
If I ever feel useless I’ll go back to watching this video

The Eternal's figures look like something you'd buy at the Dollar Tree lol... Hell, they'll probably end up there.
Lol likely!
Where did that “Spiderman suit in the trash can come from?”

The Hood is one of those figures that is so bad that is great.
I have quite a few kitbashed into other characters, and the weapons that come with it are quite nice, dick bullets aside. Not a one is displayed as The Hood, because the cloak is too big for the figure and the head sculpt sucks. Also, DICK BULLETS.
There is a good argument for that
The black and gold suit annoyed me because it was a cashgrab. It lasted in the film for like, 10 minutes. It exists solely for marketing profit.
You think that’s bad, remember the Rintra build a figure? :)
I personally don't have a problem with she hulk in ripped up clothes she can't go wrong with with any outfit.
I can appreciate that
Hoods head looks like that Dan guy from the hasbro marvel team but he’s constipated 🤣🤣
Lol can see that
You’re right on. I’m sending back my Maestro and She Hulk.
Go for it bud. Let them know

Mixed bag of agree and disagree with your list here. Kept me guessing which was good.
A few curve balls in there

Lol you're just a hardcore collector
2099 being on that body was so disappointing but I guess they’ll make more money later on with the spider verse film.
Oh I'm sure we'll see another!
Wow Sue storm looks like she's got some congenital malformation
Yeah it’s tough to look at!
I like the hood put the arcades headsculpt onto the hoods body looks so cool
Yes!
That's a good idea
Phyco Man is even worse if you know the character. He can't hold the device he comes with and he's way to short.
Yeah that's really kinda shoddy
That retro Sue needs the spare Emma Frost head that doesn’t have the sneering expression. Big hair Sue is not my aesthetic. Even the four inch legends has that Emma’s straight, short style.

No wonder the figures from Eternals Warmed every target peg!

You should’ve put it the Spiderman homecoming vulture wave tombstone in there because that figure is so DOGWATER
My 2099 almost broke in the same area on the opposite leg. The moment I saw my seam start to split I stopped and heated it up.
I'm glad you were able to stop in time!
I don't even know their names, but i bought green eternals chick for like $6 @ walmart, air brushed some green in her hair and used a metallic gundam marker on some spots and she's now a background hydra troop.
You should make a new one of these for 2022 in December, as well as the 25 best that would be great to see!
How could you do that to the hood😂
He had it coming
i actually love the Black and Gold suit Spidey figure!!! it´s amazing, but i wish it wasn´t part of a BAF wave because now i just have a leg sitting on my shelf lol
I'm glad someone likes it!
modok didnt sell due to the packaging. in box collectors like myself have no use for him.. i only have him due to the cheep price i got him for from popfix toys
Oh that's an interesting idea
I actually like that venom. It's the only cell shaded figure they've made that I haven't removed the paint from.
1:13 what a huge disappointment is it just me or does he have some happiness in his voice when he said that
I say everything with happiness in my voice :)
Well I disagree with alot on here but it's all good my friend. 😁👍 Yes I hear you with with not giving us the figure we want like she HULK, I think there giving use modern looks then making the classic look, Strange is proof of that I'm sure we will get the jump suit she HULK but I do like the sculpt of the ripped look.👍 I'm ok with repaints or using same parts as long as they look like the characters, but I do see your point that it looks like they went with a cheap fast way to put them out. And I agree with Eternals the movie was just bad, and when the actor is craping on it.🤷🏽♂️😆
But hey my friend good top worst
😁👍 Happy New Year can't wait for more from you and keep displaying model behavior! 😁🤚
All fair points my friend. One mans trash is another's treasure.
I love how my headphones can hear this guy accidentally bump his mic every few seconds
I'm clumsy
Lmao...hella funny intro...nice one Dave I must agree with this list...you definitely are entertaining my guy...wish I could go back and forth with you (pause) on a top 10 list with Brock and the fellas but maybe next year...cheers my boi, its all in good fun!👊🏿🤣
Thanks brother!
They had the interns doing the face sculpts on some of these
Definitely work experience kids
A lot of the opinions on this list I agree (especially sue storm oh god that head) but personally I really liked the psycho man figure since I think the limited possibility works for the character and I think his paints quite nice but the figure isn’t perfect and you give some valid reasons but personally I love this figure, sorry for all this text.
Hey if you enjoy him then that's all good!
This is my first time watching this man and he reminded me a lot of Glenn Webb and I love it definitely dropping a sub
Thank you so much man. That's a huge compliment!
