Thunderbird's body is fine; it's his giant head that makes him look like a teenager in cosplay. Also: only gripping hands with nothing to hold? Hasbro, I thought we were past this phase.
Thunderbird was never the walking mountain Warpath was. His listed height is only 6'1". There's even a panel in Gant Size that shows him being only slightly taller than Storm. I think the figure accurately reflects his size. Warpath, however, could still be larger.
I don't think that's true we've seen more obscure characters released and X Men characters seem to sell. I do think he should have had accessories cause he's got grip hands but nothing.
Based on stats Thunderbird is only 6'1" while warpath is 7'2". Basically the grim reaper body is the best height body they could've chosen for Thunderbird, meanwhile the omega red mold is a bit too short for warpath.
Nah shart, thunderbird wasn’t a huge dude like warpath, he was 6’11 I think in the comics and was even drawn sometimes to only be a little taller than Storm, so the scaling for this figure is actually accurate
@Shinobi 312 true but he has different ear X-men teams in his display like he said he’ll put Thunderbird in thunderbird is dead so y put him in with Jim lee X-men
Thunderbird is the right size, he isn’t huge like Warpath. He’s maybe a smidge taller than the usual person. Warpath on the other hand, could be bigger, but Hasbro didn’t want to make a new buck and reused the Omega Red body.
Nice video Shart! Here's a tip for your Wolverine in your Giant Size X-Men display. If you get the non-damaged Wolverine head from the 3-pack and put it on the Hulk/Wolverine two pack body. He looks very close to his Giant Size appearance. Have a good one
This is still my favorite figure of Storm to date. I have her in flight mode above the other uncanny x-men. She looks like a model. The pinless legs, super clean details, the boot execution top tier. I always said Naomi Campbell would make the best and most sense as Ororo. They did Thunderbird dirty, they could have atleast gave him his signature hunter knives.
Yeah while I'd love to see a proper silver Storm I painted mine as I don't expect them to do it. I don' t understand why though, The white one was from the cartoon, the black was a throwback to Toy Biz, but the comic version was always silver. They used black and white in the comics because silver ink wasn't practical, just look at Colossus, or Wolverine's claws from the same era. hell the Silver Surfer was colored with whites, blacks and blues.
I feel like I have to do the Strong Guy BAF Qarpath with the Thunderbird head! Found a $10 Thunderbird, but I feel like it is Toy Biz by the look of it!
An online buddy of mine offered to pick me up this set, so man so awesome of the folks in this community. Overall Storm is amazing and worth the drawbacks with Thunderbird. I am going to fix the neck when I get mine. Dope review bro, hope your Halloween was awesome
I think thunderbirds height is fine, he could maybe be a bit taller, but he definitely needs to be way buffer and the war path should still be the same size as colossus.
i was very disappointed when i saw that Halle Berry was cast as Storm. It never made sense to me. i always thought Grace Jones would have been perfect, but Naomi Campbell is definitely the better choice! i can't believe i didn't think of that.
Oh and felt like I should tell you that I just got my first two multiple men!! How would you feel about a re package of the Apocalypse wave multiple man? No changes just re released so people who got a bunch of the old ones and want to expand have a chance to
I have this two pack as well. I have to say I love it. We finally have the perfect Storm (no pun intended). My only gripe, you pointed out, is Thunderbird's size. He looks like a little kid to the comparisons you did. X-cellent review, Shartimus. No matter when you post, it's always worth the wait.
Hasbro should do a rerelease of both warpath and Thunderbird in a 2 pack where warpath is the same size and height as colossus and for thunderbird i think we need a new body mold for him with him just being a little big taller than the storm 2 pack version and being way more beefier than that version so that way he doesn’t have a small body and a big head to make him not look like a teenager
I would love to get this 2 pack, but I don’t know if I want to cough up about $50 for just the storm figure. Because let’s face it, the only reason we’d get it is for storm.
I actually like the thunderbird figure but i would like it more if the neck wasn't so high. You would think by now Hasbro would've either fix or replace this body mod with the multiple complaints on how the heads always rest to high on it. One this that always annoys me with hasbro is why can't we ever get a storm figure with pupils? They literally had a head without her using her power's in this pack and they couldn't give it pupils. I'm also mad that they miss the paint on the mouth of my storm figure, so instead of having teeth it looks like she got a milk mustache.
I feel that the Hercules body would have been a better fit for the character and I took some plastic from the back of storms legs to increase the range in her knees
8:20 I wish every female fig had double jointed elbows. I've seen awesome customizers do it and they looked great, it's so frustrating that we're never given a clear explanation when you ask the creators about it.
The only problem with this is the price storm has a premium price point for a premium figure, thunderbird is not it has less than those 15 dollar Army builders, no accessories at all but still premium price for that figure and just to add insult to injury he doesn't come with fist hands, it's a shame that I really want that storm haja
Yup my wife called me and said they had this. I passed. I literally told her to leave it for the next collector. Probably got scalped 10 minutes later.
Thunderbird is the right height, he was only 6 ft. 1 in; Warpath is a foot taller at 7ft 2 in. Still I'm passing on this pack; I have the Storm look I want with the White Retro Storm and while Thunderbird looks nice, he's not worth buying the two pack for
I'm with you prime that omega red / warpath body is perfect in my opinion for thunderbird. Smaller than Colossus but taller than Cyclops that's what I'm doing maybe warpath could use a caliban body? Or a storm collectables body
I dunno what comics you read but Thunderbird was NEVER that big at all. A Captain America sized body mold is totally appropriate. I guess some more recent artists renderings exaggerate his size but he is nowhere near as big as his little brother. To me it actually sounds like you never actually read the GSXM comic at all.
@@bobchipman7737 It was the last one when I went to the other targets there were none and I bought the Skeleton Terminator when I went to the other targets.
Thunderbird is definitely larger than the two pack. He is not as big as Warpath but still, he should be more wide shouldered and thicker than the two Pack... Storm is one of the most Beautiful Marvel Legends and better than Naomi Campbell as Atorm would be Iman, the wife of David Bowie!.. in her prime of course.
My god Shartimus, you got like a huge dud as far as paint is concerned. YIKES!!! My stores are littered with them and none of them look as bad as yours. Anyway, I'd say Thunderbird is the right build, but yeah, his head is too high. I drilled out the insides a bit to get it to fit lower. I like the Thunderbird, as the figure kicks ass for being a character that last 2 issues. Storm is Figure of the Year for me. My god she is everything I wanted and more. Just perfection even though her capes do not attach to her arms. In fact, I wish they would redo the Jim Lee version with this cape style instead of that cheap discount cloth thing that is going to tear in a few years after it becomes brittle.
Thunderbird looks like a discount Nightwolf. Even though he came first.

Even Cyclops is taller than Thunderbird.
I checked their sizes in Marvel.com
He just needs more muscle
It's not his height, it's the bulk. Should have used a different body mold. Such as the last Sentry one
Lol I literally just bought these figures at target not even an hour ago, perfect timing
I love hearing about coincidental experiences like these. You scored on the “Shart-Experience”. Lol
Thunderbird is just included cause they knew he wouldn’t sell on his own lol
shit i love native characters i would have bought him
@@Art_-oi9xb I think he’s saying this mostly because Thunderbird is pretty obscure X-Men character unless ur a die hard X fan
@@rayparker4231 i love the x men and know all the characters but he isn’t one that stands out ya kno
@@drewskiii__ yeah for a second I thought he was warpath lol
I don't think that's true we've seen more obscure characters released and X Men characters seem to sell.
I do think he should have had accessories cause he's got grip hands but nothing.
Woah how come I never thought of how awesome Naomi Campbel would look as storm
Your memories of the sizes of Thunderbird and Warpath are wrong. These are the proper sizes.
The warpath figure is a bit too small for him as he is supposed to be 7'2" however I do agree on Thunderbird being accurately sized
I love how no one likes the thunderbird, oh god expect a million of those on ebay
I never thought Hasbro would make this version of Storm. They sure did a great job.
Based on stats Thunderbird is only 6'1" while warpath is 7'2". Basically the grim reaper body is the best height body they could've chosen for Thunderbird, meanwhile the omega red mold is a bit too short for warpath.
Nah shart, thunderbird wasn’t a huge dude like warpath, he was 6’11 I think in the comics and was even drawn sometimes to only be a little taller than Storm, so the scaling for this figure is actually accurate
Storm with a Thunderbird accessory...best comment ever! As always great review
Honestly I think they should have used the tombstone body mold for thunderbird
Will this storm be the one you display or will you keep the 90’s storm in your main X-men display
I second this question
@Shinobi 312 true but he has different ear X-men teams in his display like he said he’ll put Thunderbird in thunderbird is dead so y put him in with Jim lee X-men
Iman would have been the prefect Storm.
The relaxed head sculpt should have had blue eyes.
i just picked this up for for 14.99 on clearance i was just super lucky. thats old school toybiz legends prices WOW!!
Thunderbird should not be as big as Colossus.
SERIOUSLY!! Stop with these comments saying "first"
Ikr uhh so annoying who ever started it I want dead 😈
They will stop because I have an unlimited supply of blue shells
Right?
@@wolfpackproductions7270 *uno reverse card*
First
Thunderbird is a normal sized man Shartimus
Yeah finally!!! Always a pleasure to watch your Legends reviews! Rarely get new figures without the watching ur review first.
92’ baby..bought this whole collection first week it first came out ! Storm, Colossus, Nightcrawler and Thunderbird were epicccc!! Still have them
Thunderbird is the right size, he isn’t huge like Warpath. He’s maybe a smidge taller than the usual person. Warpath on the other hand, could be bigger, but Hasbro didn’t want to make a new buck and reused the Omega Red body.
Great review. I am glad you mentioned that Storm's gauntlets are black and they should be gold/ yellow.
I am pleased to say that I found 4 or 5 of these at my target. It is now safe to be added to my Christmas list 😀
Nice video Shart! Here's a tip for your Wolverine in your Giant Size X-Men display. If you get the non-damaged Wolverine head from the 3-pack and put it on the Hulk/Wolverine two pack body. He looks very close to his Giant Size appearance. Have a good one
I love this set so much. I'm glad that Target and Hasbro made sure that there was enough for everyone
I like the thunderbird fig... Just got one today and will pair to Warpath
Old Warpath looks like he missed too many leg days🤦♂️🤣
Yes, I want a 90s Silver Storm. It needs a bigger cape and her belt needs to be higher on her to give her that 90s fashion look
Man, Storm is beautiful.
Oh and also also don’t do any of those head swaps they all look terrible lol. Just display them as the base figures 👍
Comes with a thunderbird accessory LMAO got me dying
Yes Naomi as Storm, and this perticular Storm design is THE BEST Storm ever.
This is still my favorite figure of Storm to date. I have her in flight mode above the other uncanny x-men. She looks like a model. The pinless legs, super clean details, the boot execution top tier. I always said Naomi Campbell would make the best and most sense as Ororo. They did Thunderbird dirty, they could have atleast gave him his signature hunter knives.
Thunderbird is 6’1” 225lbs so he is pretty well represented size wise with this figure
Awesome these are two of my favorite character 🤘🏼👍🏼I really like the actor who played him in the TV show the gifted.
I was waiting for him to die in the show so Warpath could show up I just knew it was gonna happen.

Storm looks amazing. I'm glad the set was only $35 now because she's worth it alone.
You need to do a video on standing figures, because I could not get Storm to stand at all. (or any of the super skinny legged MArvel Lady figures)
Love your reviews and all the work you do.
Man I just don't like these 2 packs being 50 bucks. I don't see a big change to justify the price increase. Love ya Shart! :)
I feel like I have to do the Strong Guy BAF Qarpath with the Thunderbird head! Found a $10 Thunderbird, but I feel like it is Toy Biz by the look of it!
Thunderbird's height is accurate from the comics. Warpath was waaay bigger and taller than him.
the mohawk storm is from the apocalypse wave. i think the hercules body mold is best for thunderbird

Angela Bassett would've been the perfect Storm.
@@tylerlarson7263 Or Dominique Jackson! Someone recently suggested her, too. i think she'd be an excellent choice.
Jade Cargil is literally the only person who'd be great as Storm
Storm is your One of your best action figures you have so far I think!
now Im looking for my toy biz tornado diorama, and can't find it...this Storm figure would look great on it.
Thunderbird didn’t get enough time to become likeable in UXM, I kind of don’t want to own him lol
To really check the size you need to compare him against Colossus and it does not look right
Oh and felt like I should tell you that I just got my first two multiple men!! How would you feel about a re package of the Apocalypse wave multiple man? No changes just re released so people who got a bunch of the old ones and want to expand have a chance to

yeah i think thunderbird should be just a little taller and have a shorter neck
Thanks, Shartimus. What took you so long for this review? I've been waiting for this for a long time. Good job!

I can not wait to get my hands on this set!!
If you, like our friend Thunderbird here,
have Blue Necc Disease, consort w/yor physicist.
I need a set of those Storm lightning hands for my Rey custom 😁
Bruh
11:23 I say it will work just need to match the paint color.
can you remove the cape
I think it’s because you’ve read about war path
Did anyone make a wired cape for this version of storm?
I feel that the Hercules body would have been a better fit for the character and I took some plastic from the back of storms legs to increase the range in her knees
Also tbirds about 6'2" and warpaths supposed to be about 7" so the height difference isn't that bad
Is the wiki on him wrong, it has him at 6 1, 225. That wouldn't be a huge person.
Love the Nightcrawler BAMF effect... is it still sold somewhere?
8:20 I wish every female fig had double jointed elbows. I've seen awesome customizers do it and they looked great, it's so frustrating that we're never given a clear explanation when you ask the creators about it.

10:56 does UA-cam not allow the word "Apocalypse" anymore?
Storm is awesome but thunder bird why can’t it be the venom body mold or hell the Hercules body mold it woulda been better
You could give me the sawmill show Miss Wright please
Bruh your memory fails you, Thunderbird was nowhere near as big as you think he should be
I got these today, wanted to know what you’d think.
Great review I got this figures yesterday
Its starting to pop up in Target stores in Ohio last week
If u don’t watch shartimus then what is wrong with you
