- It's the end of 2018 so it's time for us to hand out some awards.
Making appearances this year are McFarlane Toys Fortnite figures, lots of Marvel Legends and Star Wars Black Series, Mythic Legions, Mezco and a giant Jurassic World T-Rex.
And, as a reflection of the great year we've personally had in 2018, we polled you, the action figure community, on what you thought the 10 best figures of 2018 were. There were definitely a few surprises.

I feel underdressed watching this. Dapper Dan.
Stumbled upon this channel a few months ago and have subsequently been mentally coerced into getting back into action figure collecting. Those Marvel Legends man, gotta catch 'em all!
Thank you and curse you good sir!
I’m so happy I found your channel this year! You guys make being a geek and action figure collector fun and funny! Thanks, Dan and company! Here’s to a great 2019!
That Mezco Popeye is incredible! Might have to make that my #1.
I’ve been waiting for a Shark with a frickin laser-beam attached to its head......I’m there!!!
Can't believe more people weren't aware of the TOMY Classic Sonic figure. A high premium figure with loads of articulation, multiple interchangeable hands and face portraits, a display stand and optional background (which can also store all the accessories) and a FREAKING CHILIDOG all for $30!!!! (I got mine for $23, thanks Amazon Prime!) Seriously, if more people knew about this thing, it would be topping every figure list for 2018, it's that good.
It's funny, while tons of people consider this year one of the best yet for 6" scale figures, this was the year I kinda turned away from them in favor of robots. My list is pretty much entirely Gundam and Transformers with like... 1 Marvel Legend and the MK Goro.
Great vid as always guys! Merry Christmas!
Boss Fight Studios also deserves an honourable mention for the continued high quality of the Bucky O' Hare line too. It's a shame I only just got the dispatch notice for the Storm Toad Trooper, so it would seem to just miss out on any 2018 recognition lists...
I'm seriously happy to see that Thing figure rank at number one. That figure is like my baby and I'm really happy to see it get the recognition it deserves. As someone who tries to keep up collecting both ML and transformers I am of the opinion that transformers and stuff like ML and the black series shouldn't be judged in the same list. I feel like they almost exist for different kinds of collectors. The people who really love the black series may not find the same satisfaction in a transformers figure no matter how good it is and vice versa. I think when judging action figures and transformers that should be separated. It's more fitting to have top 10 transformers of 2018 list and a top ten action figures of 2018 list.
I agree completelly man, I for one am more into import figures (tough that may have to do with me living in china for a long time) and feel that SH Figuarts, Revoltech, Good Smile Company and even Sentinel have a lot to offer to both the same and different types of collectors, same with Hasbro, Mattel and NECA. For Dan's top 10 of the year his picks are understandable since its his own opinion, but making a list over all seems a bit biased towards the more known ones; hell make this list in Asia and you may end up with a full roster of Gundam or other model kits
I couldn't pass on the Walgreens the Thing $20 of awesomeness
Merry Christmas you bunch of nerds & a Happy New year to you!
Thanks for the show. I'm stuck at work on Christmas day, it was wonderful to have my usual Tuesday Toy Galaxy to keep me company.
Happy holidays! Looking forward to another great year of incredible videos!
You’re the man Dan and Greg! Was looking forward to this list. Can’t wait yo see your personal top ten
As always... I love your review, Dan!!! Keep rockin’ in 2019
Excellent year in review, can’t wait to see your top ten!
Merry Christmas Producer Greg, Mr Larson, thanks for a wonderful years 🎄✌🏽👍🏽
The Dewback got robbed lol, great video as always! Here is to more figures in 2019!
Closing out a killer year in toy collecting and about to embark on another one. Congrats on keeping us entertained (yes gladiator, we are entertained!!!) while guiding us through all the craziness of collecting
Loved the MIB tribute! Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you, "L" and the entire Toy Galaxy crew.
Awesome! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to Dan and company!!!
My absolute favorite channel to watch by far!!!! Looking forward to 2019 and more Toy Galaxy 😁😁😁
Bill
You guys are my favorite channel on UA-cam! It's been a great 2018 and I can't wait to see what 2019 brings! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Good to see the NECA Turtles got a look in.
Merry Christmas/Happy New Year to Dan and Greg. Another fantastic year for the channel (cracking 100k! Gotta be happy with that!) And thank you to you both on your coverage of the toy industry and your own unique way (that’s a GOOD way, BTW)
Cheers, Lurch/Jason/Mum, Look at that tall guy!
Thanks for all the great content Dan!
You're welcome. Thanks for watching!
This video made me remember that I hadn’t seen Solo yet. As a die hard Star Wars fan, it’s astonishing to myself that I had completely forgotten about it. This is a strange new world...
I saw Rampage. Happy holidays Dan and Producer Greg!
Did you pick up the toys?
@@themaqueovelic2195 I did not. Only big giant monsters I pick up are brand named like Godzilla and Kong.
@@privateprivate31337 I can respect that, you excited about the SH Monster Arts next year?
Thank you & Merry Christmas Toy Galaxy! You guys are awesome and I can't even remember my life before finding your channel... which the more I think about it, might be a problem... but... uh, what was I saying? Oh ya...thanks & Happy Holidays! 🤪🎉♥️🎄
Merry Christmas Baby Dan!!!
merry Christmas and have a great new year! congrats on 2018 and all the success it brought, the Toy Galaxy team deserves it!
Great video, great year! Legends Thing is my favorite figure from the past year. Wishing you fellas even greater things in 2019.
Great choices! Happy holidays
Wow!! George from Rampage made the list!!! YEEEEEESSSSS!!
I got my 8 yr old son it for Christmas along with, the slightly taller, King Kong Skull Island Kong!! They have been beating the excrement out of each other for two days now!!! Great toys!
Two words. Doc ock. Great video Dan. Thanks and merry Christmas.
Toy Galaxy needs a talk show! I would watch the hell out of that!
That’s a great video Dan. Keep up the good work.
The Poe Dameron face is pure nightmare fuel.
Seriously, he looks like he should be picking a fight with Luke in the Mos Eisley cantina.
And yet I want him for some reason
this little one's not worth it
That was just....
Good show Dan. Well done.
Dangit! Its over already? lol...was enjoying it Mr Larson! Thanks for this and all your vids!
Happy holidays to the channel!👍🏽🎅🏽🎁🍻
Thank you! And to you as well!
Great list and an awesome video as always.
Merry Christmas from Fiji! We had Christmas yesterday because we live in the future.
Dengar is an amazing figure. I can’t help but hear Simon Pegg say “Heheheh I cahn’t believe I’m gettin’ paid fer this!” every time I look at it.
“You’re gonna take a dirt nap!”
And let’s not forget
“Oooooh! I’m sooooo scaaaared!”
Love the suit. Looking sharp, Dan!
I'm glad that Star Wars Black Series Dengar and Gamorrean Guard made it in the top 10. I hope that next year, the TVC figures would get some nominated. Looking forward to 2019.
Damn, who would have thought that Dan would make a suit look sooo good?
Say what?! McFarlane broke tradition? No more exquisitely gorgeous INaction figures that look great and feature joints that WILL break for literally no reason? Dang it.
Looking good Dan. I almost feel like I should be wearing a tie while watching this.
I feel you when it comes to Mythic Legions. I'd love some for my collection, but they're just too pricey. And I freaking loved Rampage!
Great list!
Watching this while building Lego Voltron.
Has nothing to do with the video, just wanted to brag that I have Lego Voltron. : )
Merry Christmas Toy Galaxy.
Merry Christmas everyone!
It w@s fun to vote. Great video.
Looking dapper!
There really needs to be a top 10 for just higher end figures. Storm Collectibles Goro, Figuarts Thanos, Revoltech Carnage absolutely need to be top 5 at the very least.
I got the Sauron wave for my self for christmas and he's an amazing figure and sweet wave! THING should be in all the number one for best figure trust! And Neca been nailing it with penny wise and ultimate lines. And happy holidays and new years for all the toy fig nation!
Dan that suit looks great. I enjoyed this more than I do with the oscars and emmys
For some reason i cracked up laughing when the clip started and he was standing there in a suit lmao
I have to 100% agree on the Hasbro Ant-Man figure, also the new transformers seige line. $5 more than what PotP, CW, and Titans return per figure.
An awards show on Christmas?! Can it get any better than this?!
Also Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all!
I have 3 of the top ten. Thing, Sauron, and Wolverine....was a good year
That Reservoir Dogs 1:1 scale action figure is very lifelike.
Great video and great list! Will we see a Marvel Legends Doctor Doom in the near-future?
Amen to the 30$ figures! Glad you spoke up in a respectful but real way. Iron Factory 3rd party Transforms are amazing but 30$ bucks a pop and 3.5 inches tall. Negative ghost rider.
yeah good video but where are all the action figures that are in the 18+ back room of the comic shop
I literally paused this vid an racked my brain thinking of all the figures I got this year and put together my Top 10 of 2018 O/ I plan to comment it on your top 10 of 2018 vid O/
Jurassic World's Super Colossal Tyrannosaurus Rex (whew) is the figure I never knew I needed until it was created. An actual 1/12 scale t-rex coming in the same year as the epic Sauron build-a-figure is all the impetus I needed to create a Savage Land-themed...well...future display. Future because I still don't have the room to display it, but soon. Oh yes...soon...
Totally agree. Muloch and Gamorean Guard felt like such a cash crab. 20$ for a figure without a BAF piece and minimal accessories already feels like a rip off with the black series line.
Looking sharp, Dan! I will argue for more suits on screen from the geek community! A passionate interest in something can still be combined with looking good :-)
Ooh Dan's lookin fancy
Fancy Dan deserves his own award.
I wait all year for this. Next year rent a tux!
I love that you pronounce etcetera correctly Dan! I cringe everytime I hear an X in the word.
Just know that whenever I pronounce a word incorrectly it is intentional. Except when it it isn't.
Love Mythic Legion!!!
Hard to argue that top 10 list. Some really great figs. If any should be a 30 dollar figure, FF's Thing would rate. Extra head, extra hands, amazing paint, and it weighs 3 million pounds! If Thing can be done for $20 (as an exclusive, at that) then the rest can be done for $20.
No mention of the Mafex Justice League Batman figures? Both versions were absolutely immaculate, definitely in my Top 5 of this year.
dang Dan you look sharp buddy :)
Omg. That Poe Dameron....I’m dead.
I respect the opinions, as always. I think Transformers Siege may finally crack it's status as always a bridesmaid, never a bride in 2019. That being said...yeah I really want Walgreens Thing.
❤️Very creative 😍I gave your video a LIKE 👍👌
wow, 30 dollar figures you guys are so lucky. if I want to support my local comic shop in the UK, then I have to spend 30 pounds on a figure. lucky lucky lucky.
Hey if it makes you feel better I stopped collecting for like 3 years while I was living in Colombia because local prices were so bat-s**t insane. Like for real trying to sell you a mispainted Black series Luke for 80 USD no kidding
Dan and ToyGalaxy acknowledge that Godzilla toys exist? I'm surprised, considering this channel is mainly just Marvel Legends and Black Series topic related (that's not a bad thing at all). I want Dan to start talking about Godzilla figures more in 2019!
I want the #1 figure, already have the Walgreens exclusive General Veers.
I love the toy galaxy button. Available on line I hope.
6:50 Am i the only person who loved the huge Mosasaurus way more than the T-Rex? The Tyrannosaurus was great, but dude, the Mosasaurus was damn near a work of art! i slept with that thing at the foot of my bed for 2 months before my kitten got big enough to knock it off & steal the spot.
I think more people went in for the TRex than did for the Mos. Both are awesome.
Well that was an unexpected #1
The #2 pick was my predicted #1 .
Looks like I'll be heading to Walgreens
Here in Canada Marvel Legends, DC Multiverse, and Black Series are all $29.99
I saw Rampage and bought the Blu-ray. 😃
3:01 I don’t think ahead of time and always forget that these guys existed.
Where in the fuck can I get my hands on these amazing looking figures?
Love your channel and love the videos.
Hats off. Round of applause. All the cliches. No I in team. Every episode is Christmas with you, man. Thank you so much. Imma genuinely say it every time I feel it. History of..., PO Box and list shows. Thanks.
I saw "Rampage" in theater.
We just need to account for the other $399,999,985 million.
So that’s why Dan shaved the beard off😉 & got a haircut. To create dapper Dan☺️😋 Either that or Dan had a cameo in the New Men in Black movie reboot😅
The Thing and the Gamorrean Guard are on my personal list. I have one question: What is below the suit jacket? LOL
A dress shirt.
This is So cool
8:13 So it IS the best thing ever
3 figures I’ve bought this year are in the top 5. :D
Whoa, Dan, you next to the Rudd Ant-Man in the thumb! If you ever get a more sardonic expression he could totally play you in the biopic. 😉
Nice tuxedo
I used to buy bread and milk down at Lanard's. it's good to see they've expanded into monsters.
Transformers Masterpiece, Siege and Studio Series will had his revenge next year!
My wife yelled out "Dan's fancy again!"
I'm glad to see that Gus won an award.
