ShartimusPrime Biography:
Inspired by watching boring Transformers action figure reviews, the ShartimusPrime youtube channel was launched in 2008. Engaging the audience with an edgy sense of humor for adult collectors, action figure collecting has never been this fun, and videos are posted daily! Unexpectedly, the channel became more popular for Marvel Legends reviews and Spider-Man, Avengers, and X-Men collection display videos. After a few years, the channel has branched out to review other figure properties aside from Marvel Legends and G1 Transformers Masterpiece. Hot Toys, Star Wars, Diamond Select Toys, DC Collectibles, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Dragon Ball Z, Attack on Titan, Godzilla, Evil Dead, and The Walking Dead toy lines have all been added to the roster of nearly 2,000 video reviews. Japanese import figures from SH Figuarts, Bandai, Figma, Square Enix, and Medicom MAFEX have been favorites as well. More recently, Kotobukiya Statues (including the very sexy Bishoujo line) and NECA Toys have become more prevalent on the channel. Being a big fan of movies such as Spider-Man, Batman, X-Men, Iron Man, Captain America, The Avengers, Evil Dead, Pacific Rim, Aliens, and other films has lead the channel in the direction of also reviewing movies, movie trailers, blu ray releases, and tv shows. News updates for 2016 releases and beyond are also posted. Audience engagement is a big part of this channel, with giveaways and fan mail being read publicly once a week in the PO Box Pick-Up videos. Impressive “Shart-Art” is shared via social media and included in the opening theme song. The audience is also kept up to date with any changes to the channel, along with recent comic book pick-ups, unboxings, and action figure hauls. Stop-motion segments punishing the popular meme of the Big Time Let Down Spider-Man close most of the comparison segments, and are compiled together for guaranteed access to patrons. Lastly, all figure reviews close with a slideshow featuring dynamic poses of the figure inspired by ACBA, with the added bonus of music performed and recorded by ShartimusPrime himself.
#marvellegends #xmen #wolverine - Розваги
This is the Wolverine I grew up with, it was on Marvel Backpacks , Coloring Books , and Candy.
Me too and the animated series as well.
Me too! My Thea used to have a chair with all the marvel heroes, and this is the Wolverine that was on it!
He was on my light switch with hulk and spiderman
This by far is the best wolverine figure for me and I hope they continue to use this body mode for all wolverines moving forward
Hasbro purposely not including the boot rotation. It's ridiculous!
Only reason a disc hinge functions better than the double ball Peg neck is because Hasbro doesn't know how to make a proper double ball Peg for some reason, when done right it has so much more range of movement.
Full disclosure. I still collect. But I don't tune into the UA-cam scene as much these days. (Married life lol) but when I do, I'm glad to see that you are still at this game Shartimus! I hope you go on for as long as you can, it is always a comfort to visit your channel! Much love to you and your beautiful family!
No Shart, I disagree. A neck hinge ain’t better. A WELL DONE double ball joint is ALWAYS better. The issue with how Hasbro does it, is that the lower ball sits way, waaay too low on the neck. The rod connecting them should be shorter, and allow for both balls to rotate so the head moves with complete freedom. A hinge only allows for unnatural, vertical movement, and breaks the sculpt horribly.
@@AlxCVFX Also, double ball pegs are way more seamless
As far as articulation goes. In the neck the typical neck hinge is better on marvel legends, on pretty much every other line the double ball peg neck is better.
As far as torsos go I personally think the upper diaphragm joint with a lower crunch is hideous. A ball jointed waist is much better, especially on a character that wears a belt or who has non tights pants like luke cage. If there was no lower crunch at all then a well done double ball peg diaphragm would be the best articulation for a torso.
The hinge isn’t better tho. If the double ball peg was done well it would easily be better than the neck hinge. Marvel legends just don’t want to make good figures.
@@Jvm-iq2qe did you even read my comment... that's what I fucking said
@@JoeyBcollects oops, must’ve commented in the wrong one then, sry. It’s been happening a bit with my UA-cam.
Hinge joints in the neck suck. But unfortunately, the Hasbro ML team has no idea how to engineer articulation and can’t do a double-ball peg for crap.
It’s not just import companies that do good ball necks, Jada, DST, Neca, McFarlane all do great-good enough double-balls for neck joints.
I swear, the ML team had never handled an action figure outside of their own line or their childhood.
I was about to say, Jada have really good ball joint necks…I recommend watching Anthonycustoms prototype figures video
Woah woah, McFarlane rarely do good and useful ball necks
@@Semiq2001 better then Hasbro’s
@@Semiq2001that’s actually one of the few things it does consistently well with it’s figures.
@@Jvm-iq2qe shame just about everything else makes their figures headscratchers...
Let’s F***ing Go !
The ball jointed neck sucks is because hasbro dont know how to make a proper neck like Jada did. A good ball jointed neck show so much more emotion in a character as they can tilt their head, which a hinge joint could never do. And a well made ball jointed diaphragm and waist joint is 100% better than hinge joint. Once again Hasbro, just copy the jada stuff already. They have the BEST articulation on an action figure that are below $25, or even above honestly.
Just ordered mine today, cant wait to get all the 85th Anniversary line figures😎😁🥳👍
Random comment, but I just realised today that the arms on the tiger striped Wolverine figures are actually different from most other Wolverine arms. They’re entirely new and some of the only ones to have the arm hair sculpted on. Was watching old Shartimus videos to check, and realised he never mentioned it!
So all these years, hasbro hasn’t been re using exactly the same Wolverine body 😂
I didn’t think you were still makin vids man. Keep it up!!
a double ball for the neck is factually, objectivelly the best system. There's nothing to agree or disagree. Hasbro's shit, ancient disc that nobody uses is certainly not preferable. The only use for it to look up to an absurd degree, but be shit at literally every other movement. Why would anyone want that ? Then we have to suffer once again hasbros fucking ab crunches, from 25 years ago. That nobody else uses on the entire market. Jesus christ. At least we have a ball at the chest this time so we can til a bit
Yeah, hinges are only good in 2 directions, whilst ball pegs work in an infinite number of directions
I'm very excited for this figure. I'd get 2 if I wasn't confident that it'll get rereleased again at some point. Lol
A comic brown suit is coming as well as a comic tiger stripe. They will coming with these pinless bodies.
@vicdamon3551 I don't care about getting those right now. I specifically was saying I wanted 2 of this astonishing style costume because he looked similar to this on the avengers too.
@@vicdamon3551is this confirmed or are you just assuming? I mean I believe down the road it’s inevitable but …
I’m really hyped for this figure that much more and I’m kinda sad it only got an 8.9/10, was hoping to see a 10/10
Personally I prefer the diaphragm joint waist crunch combo, it just looks better in my opinion.
The lack of calf/boot swivel is ABSOLUTELY UNFORGIVABLE! If they added a foot swivel like the Netflix Daredevil, that would have been a good remedy but nope! Now I'm gonna have to fenegal the ankle pivot and thigh swivel like crazy every time I want to get him in a dynamic pose.
3 sets of hands and 2 heads should be the standard for the amount of accessories that come with a legend and this figure proves that it can be done.
All in all, I do think this is the best Comic Marvel Legends Wolverine, and I hope to see them use an improved version of this mold for a tiger stripe, brown suit, and X-Force Wolverine.
The Astonishing Wolverine figure looks sick!!! I know I have the X-Men 97 Wolverine figure and I still need to collect more of the X-Men 97 figures.
I need more Marvel Legends.
Double ball pegs is by far the best option. Problem is, hasbro has no idea how to do it correctly. You're not going to get good range of motion, sinking your ball pegs 1/4 inch deep. But, there are plenty of examples of double ball pegs being superior to disc hinges. Disc hinges are great for someone who flys and needs to look uo really far, otherwise, there pretty meh and give zero nuanced posing ability. Sik
BRO IT LOOKS AMAZING
@@franllout1490 Hell yea it does
astonishing*
Love the Retro Style Wolverine Figure, Shartimus! Very Cool Looking Figure indeed! 🌟
Not lovin the 5 o’clock shadow on the teeth… at least they’re trying 😅🐌
Oooh and I jus got to the part about the no boot cut. Pass
The Wolverine is must buy for me.
Great review
Honestly Double ball peg for head and single ball peg for the neck and Double ball peg for torso and single ball ball joint for the waist is the most effective articulation setup but unfortunately Hasbro doesn't know how to properly incorporate those joints
I'll forever praise Whedon for getting the X-men back in costume and out of their creepy leather phases but this isn't at all my team. I'm happy for folks who are into it and am excited to see an upgraded version in Byrne Brown.
The X-Men Legends games made me appreciate the all black uniforms, I'm hoping Hasbro makes them too
I saw Cal Dodd on stage at Montreal Comic-Con, it was really cool !
I think you might be onto something with the colors being a bit too bright and the lack of shading. He’s a little too “bright” for me. It’s obvious that Hasbro put a lot of effort into this one, but I just don’t feel compelled to buy it.
They got the X on his belt wrong, it should be gold not black like Cyclops and Emma Frost
Shartimus now we both know Wolverine can also poke something else with that finger. 🤫😅 1:54
No shin articulation is done on purpose. This way, hasbro will make u buy this figure and in a year or so they will update the buck again with shin articulation and make another round of profit. Companies don't give u the best of a particular product at a time. They will trickle bit by bit so they milk as much $$$ as possible.
They're probably shin add articulation but remove some hands and color it differently
I was playing with the "super articulated" Black Widow and the Elektra Dare Devil and for real the boot swivel really makes a huge difference while doing some poses. Looks like the cracks and the paint under the shoulders seems to be a common ocurrence with this figure sadly.
I love the boots on the puck wave Wolverine and wish they incorporated that to this look. Great review.
I really do fw the sculpting on this one
Just got mine today...the neck joint really bums me out more than the boot cuts. I think the arms are completely different from 97 Wolvie too. Definitely pros and cons to both body types.
I disagree that disc hinges are better. Ball joints are far superior. You get far more range of movement. But hasbro is notorious for not being able to do a proper ball joint
Shart where's the Ghost rider riview? Can't wait, man!!!!
I think to myself if I do need another Wolverine figure but I guess I need this so very fun and new looking Astonishing X-MEN Wolverine action figure because he has those awesome head sculpts along with those very badass claws which I think more comic Wolverine figures could use, Great review overall on him Shartimus.
Yes! Ive been waiting for YOUR review of Astonishing Wolverine.
I believe the best mid-section articulation is the GI Joe Classified set-up. Diaphragm at the waist, with the crunch up top.
The current set up with Legends isn't bad but makes waist movements awkward.
Also hasbro just doesn't know how to do dumbell necks. They do work, Hasbro just hasn't figured it out. Its only been 4 years 🤣
The lack of boot rotation is unacceptable. I've been waiting for a modern legends update of Astonishing for friggin years and they finally deliver but skimp on yhe boot rotation!!! Bah
Oooh that comparison next to the ToyBiz Astonishing really hits me in the nostalgia.
Astonishing wolverine is my childhood. And wolverine and Spider-Man are members of the New Avengers good times..
This will be my UMVC3 Wolverine
Ohhh dude, awesome
the ML team can't design a good neck balljoint, even McFarlane can, is just a rod of plastic in two sockets and they can't understand how to do it
very nostalgic and cool figure!
Yes! Make a video on what you think is the best articulation scheme! There is a bit of debate especially on legends. Like me i think this diaphram and an crunch combo isnt as great as people think. The ab crunch and waist swivel is more functional. But what would have made this better is the ab crunch being the top and a ball joint being at the waist. Would be more effective.
need that boot cut! when mine arrives maybe I will swap the legs from the VHS one.
I still think the x men 97 Wolverine is the best
fun review as always.
will there be a review of the M.L Deadpool Legacy Wolverine?
His teeth looks dirty lol
This probably is the best ML Wolverine ever, but I've already swapped out this character with updated ones more than once, and Krakoan brown suit Wolverine has grown on me. I'll probably stick with that, unless Mafex reissues their brown suit figure.
An "astonishing" review as usual, Shartimus.
Waiting mine to arrive next month 😁
Astonishing Wolverine is my favorite look for Wolverine. 97 Wolverine comes in very close second place especially after watching the show. I’m still excited for this figure. Still waiting on it from BBTS. Also thank you, Shart, for doing the head swap with the new Cowboy Logan.
I Love This New Wolverine Figure!
In the words of SpongeBob *AAAAIIIIEEE NEEEEEED IIIIIT!!!!*
Wait, why does he has painted beard on his teeths? 3:38
The claws on this figure actually look alot like the Hugh Jackmen claws. Am i wrong?🤔
Well yeah probably because they very similar
They are the same
By far the best Wolverine 😍
Thanks for the head swap! Yellows look to be close enough but not an exact match. I do think the blues on the new one should’ve been just a tad darker but overall I like this Wolverine.
The astonishing beasts will most likely use parts from dark beast with new head and arms or something similar to dark beast
Mine is arriving tomorrow and I’m hella excited! Could easily use this as a Deadpool & Wolverine stand in until we get the official movie version, but still unsure if I’ll wanna get it since this one is too good!
Best Wolverine Figure
7:22
Can we get another upload of an ShartimusPrime & AnthonysCustoms discussion
I say make a video about 6” scale articulation I think its going to help new collectors to decided figure line is the best for them
Awesome review, the claws maybe the same from the movie wolverine 🤔
I think this newest astonishing Wolverine is the best one we've gotten so far. My we've come a long way.
8:00 sorry bro. Licensing costs too much
After thinking a lot about this figure and messing around with it I think the only issue in my opinion is the calf swivel hasbro shouldn’t have missed that other then that the figure is fresh the ball peg at the neck you could work with that so it’s not a big issue. For 30 dollars I think it’s worth it
I'm just waiting for AnthonyCustoms review to see just how "bad" this Wolverine is and how incompetent Hasbro is 😂😂
Yeah lol and his comment section
How is this a problem for you though? If someone else doesn’t like a figure but you do it shouldn’t matter really.
Brainrot comment lol
Hasbro IS incompetent though
You might not like his approach or sarcasm, but he’s just plain right when it comes to quality issues that could be avoided and articulation and proportions stuff which could be -so much better- without costing Hasbro or us a single more penny, as it’s about stuff which can be improved before production.
It just does not make sense, that the largest toy company in the world misfires so often.
And yes, I collect this and other lines, like several figures a lot, I’m able to enjoy them even when I know this and/or that could be better, etc.
In the end: Don’t we want the best bang for our buck? That’s what reviews are for.
No boot cut was enough reason to cancel my preorder, yeah.
So use the thigh swivel
@@marvelmdc3130 not enough for more complex poses
But how complex are you gonna get with a wolverine figure it’s not Spider-Man. If it was a Spider-Man figure it would definitely be a huge issue but he’s Wolverine. The 97 night crawler didn’t have a calf swivel that is still a solid poseable figure
@@marvelmdc3130 But this Wolverine has basically the articulation as a Spidey.
To be honest I think it’s completely fine yes of course they shouldn’t have missed the calf swivel but there’s still a whole lot of dynamics poses you can get him in. It’s really about how creative you can get with the figure as is
Hasbro cant engineer a ball peg. Thats why the heads dont move and the figures cant move foward hald the time but can break the spine going backwards
So, Shart, what IS your favorite Wolverine figure in your collection? You didn't say.
I paid about 24 bucks for mine. Although mine doesn't have the speckles on the teeth.
I keep going back and forth on the figure. The straight flat blue and yellow looks really plasticy/cheap to me.
I don’t care what fanboys say. It’s a bad figure hasblow didn’t even try. It’s head is oversize and his height is inaccurate. Also wtf is up with hinge joint in the neck?😂😂😂
Average brain rot hater😭🙏
Must get for me because it looks like such a good one and I don’t have a Wolverine lmao 😂
I’m hoping Hasbro will eventually do the ball jointed waist and diaphragm joint combo as that offers the best poseability for torsos. It would allow for so many better wolverine poses.
Seems like an upgrade, but no boot joint was odd. So again Hasbro take a step, but then take two steps backward. I never understand that. Team ML is a really messy group.
I wish Hasbro would put more thought into their figure releases. The heat claw wolverine uses the astonishing costume with slightly different color shading. Why not include regular claws for the previous release or simply wait and include heat claws with this release? We're talking about two slightly different figures released within a 2 year time span.
I'm thinking about kit bashing this figure with the bonebreaker wave wolverine then painting it, what do you think?
But how much better can this be like I understand the articulation issues but how much better can the overall figure be
Picking this up here for review anyway
Even if its plain looking although some of that same issues with the 97 fig
Also i will say i prefer these claws
Dont see the need to buy from snowman
Im more of a fan the classic suit, but this one is really good, i personally don't need another Wolverine, but this one ITS REALLY GOOD. Too bad it doesn't have boot rotation.
I was hoping to see the claws swapped with the Hasbro pulse Logan bloody claws since their the same
I really wish & hope they give us all the characters from the TV show wolverine and the X-Men which is basically the astonishing X-Men and my favorite x men tv show right behind x men 97 and so far we got
Angel, wolverine and Emma Frost and cyclops
This articulation is great. Its similar to hasbro's gi joe figures articulation
Although not really
Although yes really
Just patiently waiting for the s.h figuarts Deadpool & Wolverine Hugh jackman figure 🤧🤌🏾
Does this costume go with the New Avengers or Mighty Avengers? It's been awhile...
beast better not be part of a two pack!!!
Sold out. 😢
One left at bbts if youre fast enough
And read this comment..
Big Time Let Down Spidey is back!
They need to redo beast
I think an anthonycustoms collab would be great someone who has high standards for hasbro and figures alike definitely want to see what he thinks
Anthony and Shart did a livestream together before, I think it's still on Shart's channel
To me, ab crunches are so unforgivably ugly that they ruin the figure. Ten years ago I used to completely disregard Marvel Legends because they were all so ugly, cheap and samey looking. It didn't matter how articulated they were if the figure didn't look good to begin with. This is the first yellow suited Wolverine that they've done that I actually like enough to want to own. Sculpted details, generally good proportioning, articulation that isn't ugly, actually resembles the source material. I still think most of what Hasbro puts out isn't good, but then they come out with stuff like this, movie Venom and Carnage, FFH Final Suit Spidey, Doctor Doom, Tombstone, Power Princess, etc where they look like they were made by a completely different company - one that actually makes good figures.
But even Hasbro's best Marvel Legends still fall short compared to most other companies. That's because the standards are so low that anything that it isn't garbage is considered good
@@chewymew I think that's a little bit hyperbolic. Movie Venom is genuinely one of my favorite action figures of the last decade. Most of what the put out isn't good, but I do think there are some that are exceptional even by general standards. It's frustrating because clearly they can do better, it's just rare that they do. As if the people in the production process who actually really care about making the best product they can just sneak one by the higher ups.
😢😢Nawl gonna pass, Wolverine is my favorite Marvel character but 5oclock shadow on the teeth😅😅I’m Ard with my sabretooth 2pack and house of X jawn RS
66👍
Algorithm!!!
Can't wait to get that one
Neck hinge is ugly and you get zero attitude. If the head is seated properly and the neck moves independently from the body and head on another double ball then I think a hinge is okay
His proportions looks off the figure almost looks uncanny but at least the paint is good overall I'm going to pass the only marvel legends that really look good are model 24 ironman and she hulk oh and this mold has terrible articulation especially when you compare it to the other wolverines
The chinstrap is not comic accurate. Neither are the squares on the gloves and boots. Or the belt. And the mask is supposed to be blue and yellow.
This fig was such a let down
Worst wolverine for me. The costume is horrible, and wolverine is my favorite superhero.
