I had hoped he'd show how this big figure scaled with other big figures... like darkseid from storm collectibles or one of MacFarlane's versions, or storm collectibles golden axe death adder, or marvel legends surtur.
Cool review, this figure looks great. Hopefully my Swampy is delivered soon. I like how you mentioned comic artist Wrightson & comic writer Moore who were integral in making Swampy a great character.
Great review! Yeah I was a Swamp Thing fan as a kid also, mainly because of the animated series, and I fell in love with this fig as soon as I opened him.
You're my favorite reviewer. You got me off the fence about the Zombie Cap figure. I usually go all things Captain America but, I wasn't sure about that Zombie Cap. And I don't pose figures...but, after your review I picked up Zombie Cap and he's posed on my shelf. And now I plan to pick up this Swamp Thing.
I moved to 1/6 scale figures but I still come back now and then to watch your reviews. Great work man you always make me want to get back into 1/12 scale.
nice review as always! McFarlane toys tend to be fantastic as long as you don't mind getting the brush and paints out - I almost view them as pre-base coated figures that need finishing, and in that sense they're excellent value.
@@hulksmash8159 1. I'm a hipster because I think action figures look better with paint washes? 2. Liking your own comments 3. It's hilarious how you commented on two of my videos, I don't care that you disliked it lmao.
👻I have a similar gripe about my Edenian Blue Kitana. Her heels are a bit of a pain to try to plant her feet & have her stand properly when posing her up. 👀 It just takes a bit to try to find a pose that she's stable in. I just gotta find the right balance.
The size of the figure is not for me. It's pretty cool looking, and I get why someone would love an oversized Swamp thing compared to 6inch/7inch figures, but I do have both DC Collectibles New 52 Swamp Things. Gonna hold out hope they do a scaled down version of Swampy later and maybe re-work the diaper effect. Love the head sculpts.
The one things I don't like about these bigger figures is that ugly-ass exposed wrist joint that cuts into the hand sculpt. They should just use the same system they use for regular figures, like they did with the Hellbat armor figure.
Just got mine but it's the platinum grey variant. Not what I wanted. I guess 90% of the people who ordered him got the grey one....lame asf!!! It's Swamp Thing, not Cement Thing...
The McFarlane upper torso almost never moves forward, the diapers are too big and hinder the hips, and the big figures tend to have that hideously outdated wrist joint. Just strange design/engineering choices, and it's too bad, because the sculpt is excellent.
Got mine like a day ago from amazon, great figure but had to return it for a replacement since the QC was insanely bad. There was super glue in all the shoulder/bicep joints.
He looks great, but I feel like he's too big (I say that as someone who hasn't followed the character in years). I've always imagined him as being Hulk-sized.
@@obese401 Do you mean their characters in the comics, or this figure vs your average Hulk figure? Cause Swamp Thing here seems twice as tall as the regular figures, and I don't think of Swamp Thing or Hulk as being 12 feet tall (Maybe more like 8 or 9), but I don't know if there's canon for how tall they're supposed to be, or it just depends on how tall the artists wants to make them.
I didn’t think he was gonna be that big. That’s awesome
That’s what she said
@@Mateo_Esteban good one 🤣
Stole the words right out of my mouth lol.
Well damn. That may be the best McFarlane DC multiverse figure I've seen.
Dang...might need him so I can have him go up against Surtur 🤔
I like piloting him next to Mcfarlane Darkseid and revelations moss man for comparison

Hopefully you don't get the grey platinum variant like I did and 90% of people who pre-ordered. Unless that's what you wanted.
Great review! Yeah I was a Swamp Thing fan as a kid also, mainly because of the animated series, and I fell in love with this fig as soon as I opened him.
Swamp Thing is also one of my fav DC Superheroes. I loved him!
I was waiting for you to size em up wit surter.. lol

I've been really hoping for a swamp thing I could actually get. This is a solid figure but makes me want the classic look even more.
Awesome photos. I did not think he was gonna be this big.. damn 😂😂.. good job as always D

@@nottoofast Total hipster.
superglued that toe articulation to make him stand easier
Hot damn, this looks good. I'm picking this one up to go next to my new 52 DC Direct Swamp Thing (signed by Yanick Paquette!)
I wanna get this to go with the mezco Constantine whenever it eventually comes out

As always, great review and great pictures! Thanks
Props to the bargain bin comics! My papi always bought me comics from that unknown box of treasure 😂👍🏽
I can't lie... Todd definitely can get off some nice figs. Every now and then lol
I think that’s every company I collect. Some good and some bad. I think Todd is doing pretty good. Better than Mattel and essentials
This due should be displayed ruling over a group of all the Marvel Legends Groot figures.
Dayuuuuum that thing is worth the price dope review and shots!
Happy new year D, dope review as always. I can’t wait to get this swamp thing figure
Damn back orders!
Where did you order him from. Trying to avoid getting a unpainted one.
I bought that same figure today at target 🎯

I walked past this the other day... I almost bought him, and I think I SHOULD have.
Great review!
FUCK I'M ELATED FOR THIS FIGURE
Oh wow, he's even bigger than I thought.
Really cool 💪
Great review! Really shows off his scale, he’s huuuuuuge
Awesome review bro 🔥
Awesome reminds me of Moss man of MOTU great review
I got him to be a tree giant. So I wanted him to be big.
The one things I don't like about these bigger figures is that ugly-ass exposed wrist joint that cuts into the hand sculpt.
They should just use the same system they use for regular figures, like they did with the Hellbat armor figure.

Swampy is a big boy. Holy crap!!!
I was waiting for a Injustice Storm collectibles comparison. Cant seem to find it online. Is he the same size as Darkseid or Doomsday?
I’m hoping I can get my hands on a Constantine so they can be displayed together
He remimd me of stranger thing Vecna
Awesome figure! Great review!! 🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥🤘
Big fan, also a toy collector.
Happy New Year
I love this figure soo much and yet i hate his paint soo much. I cant forgive all the roses, wood and fruits sculpted are just green...
D do a stop motion
BIG BOI
Could see him doing well on insta
He's huge
Looks goodr

He his hulk size u just said he’s too big but then said you thought he was Hulk size , he’s about as tall as hulk

He made my top 10 of 2021.
The last time I bought a McFarlane action figure they were still statues. This might change that.
First
McFarlen figs don’t pose well at all. I’ll save my $50
Yeah, I’m still salty about the Kickstarter spawn!
Freaking twisted torso!!! Like wtf 🤬?!
