I think Medicom is having trouble with the skin color of black people. It makes some sense as depending on the lighting and camera. We can go up or down a few shades. But I think they went a bit too dark on the guys in this release and the upcoming one.
My issue is the first one looks kind of orange. I think the skin tone on this one is much better than the first. Yeah it’s a bit dark but they usually never get skin tones done right. Too light or too dark or too orange!
I have the OG version that released some years back and its still one of my top 5 Mafex figures to this day. I'm so hyped to get this one too and I'm loving the more detailed updated face sculpt and the throne is just money. Thanks again for another early review!!!
I have a Manipple head sculpt on the old one, so don't really feel the need for the new. looks great though. glad they revisited, so the people that missed out didn't have to pay aftermarket price for it.
Idk but i looks like the first release unmasked head looks better. Aw man i was hoping they were going to make him taller since the new caps are bigger and taller
@KaijuDaddyJapan yea I asked before it showed the updated head sculpt paint but really the whole figure is the same mold right? All but the new head I don't really need this one if I have the old one right? And you called Chadwick boseman Tyler lmfao
Thanks for the review. Yeah it looks good, the throne and the unmasked head look amazing, huge improvements. The only reason I won’t pick this one up it’s because they shown the Civil War version at the last Exhibition, my favorite suit for PB.
Same but the one I’m looking out for is the Endgame BP. That one might fit in best in my display, just hope it comes with enough accessories for the price.
My man's on a roll with the Mafex reviews in 2025. Thanks as always.
You bet
I was on the fence with this one, think you’ve just pushed me over the line to place an order 😂 Good job 😅
Mission accomplished
The best black panther about. Can’t beat them look forward to picking up all the black panther releases they showed last year
Very much looking forward to the line but hoping they don’t go overboard on the pricing
Great review KD
Thank you
Man 3 releases in two weeks is diabolical for my wallet 😅 great review as alway!
@@joserodriguez2255 thank you. Possibly another release this weekend. Who knows.
Impatiently waiting for mine from Hobby Genki!
👍
Great review 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Appreciate it. Thanks.
Wakanda Forever!! Thanks brother
Must have!
Looks great! Thanks for the review!
Great figure.
Bro any update on mafex tobey ?
Haven’t been to the shop in a bit. Hopefully this week.
It should be coming out this upcoming month bro
If it’s not delayed. I’ll try to get some dates on it this week.
@@KaijuDaddyJapan tnx
🫡
Wow, this looks great
It’s a must have.
The last figure has the better skin complexion. But this one has a sharper likeness.

@ yeah our boy Chadwick isn’t this dark lol. Agreed about the lighting and stuff.

@@KaijuDaddyJapan I’ll have to see in hand. This looks like a smokey charcoal lollol. Everything else is great though
👍
4:19 so sorry for your loss...💔

@@epiclvlpurple19 love this figure. The original figure is the moment I realized Mafex was producing better figures than SHF

Don’t want the throne???
@@KaijuDaddyJapan no room for display. 😂
Say it ain’t so
Idk but i looks like the first release unmasked head looks better. Aw man i was hoping they were going to make him taller since the new caps are bigger and taller
Hi! Will you be making a video for the february mafex releases?
Like what will probably delay and release (news)
Possibly. If I do it’ll most likely be for channel members only.
It’s about time they have a good release since Eradicator.
Definitely
I was pretty content to stick with the 1.0 version, but this has changed my mind. Great figure and a bargain compared to that 4-Lom!
It is definitely a must have
Now just gonna call you Mafex daddy 😂
😆
You got it already? I'm still waiting on Amiami.
Yeah grabbed it at AmiAmi on release
When is the civil war one coming out
No idea
Excuse me but did you review the John Wick and Caine figures in the background?
I did not. They’re from AT Custom (Aton Custom). They (it’s a set) made my #1 release of 2024.
@ That’s cool and hope. Unfortunately it looks like my preorder was a scam. Glad to see that they are real and out.
@ can you share the site of purchase? Can these be purchased from Japan?
The seller I got it from is sold out. AliExpress seems to have it. It’s the Ultimate Edition (2 Wicks and 2 Cain’s)
@@KaijuDaddyJapan sorry to ask but do you recommend a seller or have a link. Just don’t want to get scammed again.
No difference between this one and the first?
I showed the differences. Did you see?
@KaijuDaddyJapan yea I asked before it showed the updated head sculpt paint but really the whole figure is the same mold right? All but the new head I don't really need this one if I have the old one right? And you called Chadwick boseman Tyler lmfao
No. It’s been retooled. There are differences in the mold. The upper torso appears to have been redone as the size is bigger
@@KaijuDaddyJapan shit! That means I must get it lol
@ it is your destiny
Thanks for the review. Yeah it looks good, the throne and the unmasked head look amazing, huge improvements.
The only reason I won’t pick this one up it’s because they shown the Civil War version at the last Exhibition, my favorite suit for PB.

Must buy all the toys!!!!
I believe this is just 1000 yen more than scarecrow 😂 Mafex pricing is kind of all over the place now
This is correct. But still less than 4-LOM. Crazy pricing as you said.
This figure arrived very late
Better late than never
