This wave was DOA, and that’s not intended to be an indictment of the figures themselves or even the source material. It’s the timing. This wave was like taking a disco record that would have gone gold if it had been released in 1978 and trying to pitch it to record companies in 1981.
Well, I like the Goliath. It's got a certain generic charm. A space man, future soldier, maybe even a deep sea diver of some sort. It could be anything.
Damn I’m seeing that daredevil buck breaking just as bad as that beetle body mold, maybe it’s time for either the magnets or the screw method for those awful bicep swivels
Kingpin being too small is why I haven't bought one. Though I have seen some people porting that headsculpt on to the McFarlane DC Multiverse The Batman Penguin figure body & it doesn't look half bad. & I'm pretty sure the Yelena Belova in the Puff Adder BAF wave was by Hasbro. Just sayin.
If he really had time, he could have parodied the final smash of Megaman or the sword guy. Agatha summoning a void then all of them one by one punch, shoot or blast him.
Gamora looks good but she barely holds her sword securely and not having a set of fisted hands is really annoying and I'm not surprised they're on clearance. Also Yelena just reminds me of the trunchbull from Matilda 🤷🏻
The Kingpin is a bit smaller. Just how much smaller depends on if you're comparing him to the comic version or Vincent D'onofrio's version. If it's D'onofrio then it's just slightly smaller. The Yelena was disappointing to me because it wasn't as articulated as it could/should have been. Gamora was decent and the Agatha is pretty much the only one that didn't disappoint in some way. I got exactly what I was expecting: cool looking figure that posed like a brick... 🤣🤣🤣 Haven't gotten the Fury, Talos, or Goliath yet but I will eventually as they pop-up on sale at a suitable discount...
I'm the same boat as you, I got this wave simply because it was affordable, to me there is only Yelena that is a true disappointment, I forgive the Kingpin more than you, but nothing stands out, even the Hydra Stomper is a bit too small as you pointed out. But this wave effectively features at least 3 characters in suits, (arguably Agatha could be called a suit figure also) along with a poor catsuit costume. You are talking about a superhero line that only had 3 out of 7 super hero costumes. I do rank Goliath higher than you, as I love that look. I wanted the Hydra Stomper as I collect everything Captain America, but I might have passed if I had to pay full price.
The first thing I will say is I feel for you about your Netflix Daredevil figure breaking. You broke it the same place where I broke my 2019 Avengers Endgame wave 3 updated Avengers 2012 movie Captain America figure in the right bicep area of the arm. Thankfully I was only using that figure as a substitute for my MCU Captain America until I get a Endgame Captain America figure. That Daredevil figure is gonna to be hard to get now it's up in price from $50 to $100 dollars I bet you we will get one when Daredevil born again Disney plus series comes out. I would not mine a Echo figure I enjoy the series not my favorite series that would have to be Loki series both season 1 and 2.
i cannot wait for hasbro to release the warriors three pack ( fandral, volstagg , hogun, with an upgraded siff figuree) pleasee jusst make that happenss cant wait to put them as a new addition to my thor shelvess,, pleasee hasbrroo with brand new warrior body sculptt
I would love a deluxe Kingpin maybe in a box set with echo. I hope Hasbro stays away from the Disney+ stuff. Maybe a Daredevil in his yellow suit. But for the love of god redo Kingpin Hasbro.
I request you go back to your old method of ranking. Seeing how you ranked a wave was my favorite part of the review, but now with them pre-arranged, it almost feels like an afterthought that you have to talk about the rankings
I don’t like the character selection for this wave. It should’ve been Abomination or Gravik as the build a figure for this wave. My ranking for this wave: 8.) Nick Fury (Articulation for the figure is horrible, the head sculpt looks fantastic and the aesthetics are okay, the only thing going for it are the guns and the removable hat) 7.) Warrior Gamora (I’m not a big fan of the articulation for the figure) 6.) Goliath (Pretty good mold but accessories do feel lackluster) 5.) Hydra Stomper build a figure 4.) Agatha Harkness 3.) Talos 2.) Yelena Belova 1.) Kingpin Pretty lackluster wave, 2023 is the year where I find myself enjoying retro carded waves more than build a figure waves. We still need Scarlet Scarab, Frog Man, Yellow suit Daredevil, Echo and Red Dagger.
This wave tbh makes other Disney+ waves like the Khonshu BAF wave and the Infinity Ultron BAF wave look good and a run for its money. Where as this wave makes itself look like a joke!
This wave is an easy pass for me, the only figure I kind of want is Gamora because I just like Guardians of the Galaxy a lot.. but I'm not interested on any, I don't even think the good ones look that good.
I get that people love these iterations, and I wish you all joy of it. But to me, it is just more MCUseless - A very easy pass for me. Buy what you like! :)
Wow that is an amazingly realistic Ben Mendelson head! Crazy! This wave looks a lot more interesting than it first seems.
Shame you (probably) can't stick it on the ol' Director Krennic figure for an upgrade
Love the Goliath, Gamora, and yelania Balova. I wouldn't mind an Echo figure. I'd also want a frog man from She Hulk, I liked the design
I want a daredevil from she hulk but frog man would be cool too.
I just found the whole wave a retro carded x-men with Spiral at Ross for $6 each
Same here. 😂
@@KingPrintmakerI’m so glad I held out waiting for them
@@KingPrintmakerfingers crossed I have the same luck with the x-men 97 wave 🤞🙏

I don't want a disney plus Echo figure but I would really like a comic version.
Rip daredevil 😪
I completely forgot about the new season.
I got the king pin figure for 7 bucks clearance. Totally worth it.
I forgot these figures existed cuz no one posted any reviews or pics anywhere
The Goliath would have been cool if it came with a little ant man. But like with the whole wave, they are all lacking in accessories
20:18 I can relate
Damn I’m seeing that daredevil buck breaking just as bad as that beetle body mold, maybe it’s time for either the magnets or the screw method for those awful bicep swivels
I like the Marvel Legends Nick Fury and Kingpin figures and I might get Agatha Harkness and she looks pretty cool in the MCU
Kingpin being too small is why I haven't bought one. Though I have seen some people porting that headsculpt on to the McFarlane DC Multiverse The Batman Penguin figure body & it doesn't look half bad.
& I'm pretty sure the Yelena Belova in the Puff Adder BAF wave was by Hasbro. Just sayin.
Shut up, that figure never happened! :0)
20:30 actually i´m that guy who loves the Hawkeye series and want it that figure xD but totally with you that figure its not that good enough!
I would like a yellow Daredevil, an Abomination and a Frog-Man.
I really hope they will make a better king pin in the future
If he really had time, he could have parodied the final smash of Megaman or the sword guy. Agatha summoning a void then all of them one by one punch, shoot or blast him.
I actually watched Hawkeye and wanted that Yelena. One of few people lol
I want Goliath too. xD
Good video.
Gamora looks good but she barely holds her sword securely and not having a set of fisted hands is really annoying and I'm not surprised they're on clearance. Also Yelena just reminds me of the trunchbull from Matilda 🤷🏻
With all the random figures we've gotten, I'd really like to get an Eric Selvik and Darcy, they would just complete everything.

rip the netflix daredevil figure
I put my nick fury beanie on andrew garfield spidey
I don't know, man? The MCU and its products have all the appeal of warm Kool Aid to me.
Shartimus use the screw method I works wonders

Dang current mcu is so underwhelming

Yea I saved a lot of money in 2023 with all these bad waves haha
I get that people love these iterations, and I wish you all joy of it.
But to me, it is just more MCUseless - A very easy pass for me.
Buy what you like! :)
If we're talking Disney+ figures I wouldn't mind a Kahhori figure down the line.
This wave was 🗑
Shart… you SUD-ed yourself🥲 Hasbro gave us a Yelena like a year or two ago. The one with the goggles lol
