- I got impatient AGAIN and ordered the Hasbro Marvel Legends Astonishing X-Men Emma Frost and Cyclops from CmdStore. I know I said I would do that after Blob a few weeks ago but I couldn't help it, I love these looks for the characters. I couldn't help myself...

With Astonishing Cyclops, Emma, Bucky Cap and Extremis Iron Man, I hope we can say the 2000s nostalgia era of Legends has finally begun!
Hail, the Fwoosh!
Robo’s bright white reference never gets old.
The Astonishing Cyclops figure has to be one of the best on this Wave.
Hence no BAF piece
Emma’s cape really should been soft goods or at least an option to swap between capes.
Can't wait to grab these two. Astonishing Cyke's always gonna be a great one for me, next to the Jim Lee Cyke, ofcourse. Glad that Hasbro's made 'em in figure form. A bit overdue, really- Especially for Emma. A ton of improvement on her. Love the review, as always, Robo.
Oh dude this Astonishing X-Men Cyclops looks amazing, looking forward to their (re)take on Wolverine and Colossus.
That custom Beast is amazing!
I would love to get a figure of Cyclops in a jacket without the visor or glasses! He was extra badass with that look. Also would love to get Prof X in his grey sweater/suit from when he confronts Danger, but that's definitely at the bottom of the want list for "Astonishing" based figures.
Fun fact I'm currently reading Astonishing for the first time
Oooooh, been waiting for these guys!
That beast!!!!! If I had him I’d start collecting astonishing X-men 😍
Very smooth text reveal in the intro. Lovely to see your editing leveling up.
So excited for this wave which I Pre-ordered.
The kitbash Emma body that you have with the Marvel Select Cape was from the Puck Wave back in 2013 or 2014.
Luv your channel Robo.. 👍
Miss opportunity to compare Cyclops against your custom one, I was waiting the whole video for it!
Glad I preordered Cyclops, gotta get Emma too. The Astonishing/ Whedon’s run is my Xmen team.
The only figs I have on PO. Can't wait to get them! Astonishing X-Men is like,the only Marvel comic that I actually LOVE.
Would have been great if these came included with an additional blast effect accessory for Cyclops and an extra (more widely spread) cape for Emma Frost (or even a cloth cape instead of a plastic one), but at least these are nicely sculpted figures.
Yeah... I can not wait for more Astonishing figures. Especially if they go into side characters, I'd love an Abigail Brand figure.
Great figures fwoosh 👍.
Slick text wipes at the top, Robo! Also, very surprised at how much newness they crammed into these. As much as I like the newer bodies, I'm a full-cowl Cyclops guy, so I settled for HoX Scott until this was announced. It's too bad we already got a Havok recently - I'd love to see all three brothers on some version of this frame.
Hoping that astonishing Wolverine will be the next member to be shown! 🤞
They could really do a whole wave. Maybe attempt Danger again for a baf again. Definitely want Wolvie and Beast, though.
@@Baconlovesreddeadnice name and a colosuss snd kitty pryde 2 pack
@@ReginaldSpidercrab yeah I could definitely see them as a two pack someday
That Wolverine Emma Frost body looks great with the Black Queen Emma head you put on it with the Marvel Select cape. Love it!
I also love the current Astonishing Emma we are gonna get. I hope so much that there is a Diamond variant with no cape.
The king is backkk🎉
Appreciate the look, as always! Feeling that Cyclops. Odd the torso is a little smaller. 🎉
Since everyone loves the Jim Lee version of the X-Men they should just make them all in that style. I think that Hasbro should make artist inspired lines of figures in the most popular artists' style. Like a Humberto Ramos Spider-Man?
Fkinel, yes! I would absolutely looove Humberto's Spider-Man. He should have entirely new body though and...I don't know, maybe at least 3 heads with different eye expressions.
I’m not necessarily sure why some people are so dead-set against the colored lips like on this Cyclops figure. Are a person’s lips the same color as their skin?
I think it's mainly how heavy handed it comes across on some figures. One figure that stood out to me was the retro Iron man- (the one with the big cannon thingy) he came off very doll-like with the added lip details.
They look like they use lipstick.
Getting Kaley Cuoco vibes from that head sculpt
Maybe an Xtina Aguilera too?
Thank you for saying Ch'od as it's spelt 😌
Cyclops looks AWESOME 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥✨✨
I wish you would’ve compared the Cyclopes to your custom. I think they might even be based on the same body in places.
I would like to personally thank everyone who selflessly gave up single use plastic straws, lids, bags and cutlery so we could, once again, have plastic windows for our toys.
Apparently some weirdos like to keep them in the box and couldn't see what they bought! Which actually makes sense... especially to combat swappers!
I'm 100% getting the emma frost
That is a very John Cassaday Emma Frost.
For Cyclops, they don't have to cut of the smoke effects. Just use some red clay or puddy or some to fill the gap -something you can remove. It's a waste to destroy the laser smoke effect.
HellyeahFwooshtime!😎
I need an updated Danger badly!
Cyclops looks pretty dope
When I got Ronan the packaging didn't have any tape at all and it had me worried for a sec but he was all there
Cyke looks very cool
You should make a shelf with all the custom action figure people have made of you
I hope that the plastic package is more recyclable that way they can still have the green route and we still have a window
Hi! 2 things- 1: where do you get your hats? (My Dad envies you're hats so I wanted to check) Also, do john walker custom unpainted heads have a socket for a hasbro neck joint, or do they have a giant tube socket so someone could put sticky tac inside for whatever figure. even if you don't respond, I wanted you to know I love your videos.
Not read any of the comics with this uniform. I do like the look of it. I’m kinda tempted to paint the visor so it matches his gold lines. Think it’ll look good. Still waiting on a retro carded classic cyclops.
I don't really even mind Robo liking the Astonishing X-MEN team because they are cool and both the figures look dope as they should be, But to me, Jim Lee is my favorite version of X-MEN but Great review overall Robo
You know with character’s like Emma is where you miss the chase figures if ever a Diamond form should have been done it’s here also a soft cape, this company really needs to innovate or die and there’s no reason Scott shouldn’t haven’t come with optic blast, it good to see your okay especially after those tornadoes was tearing through Arkansas, I was looking forward to you and Veeb’s discussing D&D Honor among Thieves.
I think this hand 👉 that was for Scott is for him to do the pose where he puts his to fingers on the side of is visor to turn the laser on
If you trim the arm peg like you do with the Vulcan buck. The butterfly joints have way more range... way more.
Do you think the brown suit wolverine would look good with the astonishing cyclops?
I gotta say I'm..... astonished.
Give it a week or so and there will be customizers that have options to plug into the visor
Love it when American toy collectors purchase their figures from Canadian toy retailers. ❤❤❤🔥🔥🔥🔥
Please never stop the bright white crash test dummies joke lol I love it
Didn’t Hasbro already make blast effects for Cyclops? Maybe the old ones can fit with this Astonishing one
We need a classic blue and yellow arcade cyclops
Wish they'd make the chris bachalo version of Rogue and Cannonball
Are these not available in the US yet? My local Wal Mart got the wave today (East Coast Canada)
Yay
Very simple solution on Emma, make the cape narrow on the shoulders or more loose, put her triple joint arms, in that way, movement will be better, or make her cape removable, like the older version. Why Cyclops is shorter, lol?
If and when I get the Cyclops one, chances are I’ll cut the optic blast smoke effect off just so I can get better neutral poses
I did that exact thing today, looks nice and neutral. Super easy.
I would love to see a new Deadpool on the new Cyclops body
Needed a definitive cyclops think this is him
Cyclops and Emma Frost 4ever, that is all.
I'm conflicted. I love that they're giving comic figures the love and unique sculpts they deserve. Astonishing especially, I might be a Jim Lee 90s kid, but Astonishing hit during a really formative time of my life and even if I wasn't super deep in comics, the designs and impression of very mature adult story tell left and impact. That being said, there's some fit and finish that feels lacking. Scott's height, Emma being knock kneed, and brace yourself I'm gonna have *words* about Fang 😢. That said ho lord that Astonishing line up looks amazing. I skipped heat claws Logan because revoltech fills my shelf, but seeing that alternate head with the more pinched fins is just money.
It occurs to me Dark Beast is very close to an Astonishing repaint.
Wouldn’t the left alternate be for activating his eye beams and not waving so much
That sculpt for Emma looks like Christina Aguilera, and I can't unsee it xD
The best sculpt ever.
Whedon’s Astonishing X-Men still holds the title of BEST run since Claremont, with Morrison’s run coming in right behind it. It feels like Hasbro keeps making Cyke a little TOO buff, though. They need a slimmer hero-buck.
Cyclops was only slim as a teen. He's 6'3 and 195lbs as an adult. That's nowhere near "slim" anymore. Gambit 6'1 and 175 could be considered slim. Darwin at 6'4 and 150lbs is really slim.
I'm getting a "Christina Aguilera" vibe with the Emma Frost head sculpt. Lol
Why can I actually see this- 😂💀
You mean X-tina Aguilera.
The best sculpt ever created for Emma.
When Hasbro puts in the effort I am torn because I'm happy they tried but it also reminds you of the times they didn't... in this very same wave...just sculpt a clawed hand with less fingers!!!
Emma's cape is getting removed the minute I get the figure lol
Can you get Emma’s hand to get close enough to touch her to simulate her using her powers?
Are you going to review the Indiana Jones figure?
I wonder how hard it’d be to put a cloth cape on Emma
I wish Fwoosh made reviews of the Masterverse line. I love to hear him talking about figures, and I collect Masterverse so... It would be amazing.
I wonder if hasbro is starting to learn from mcfarlane’s details. The seams in cyclops was a bit of surprise
Is his body the volcan body mold ?
Cyclops- I was hoping you would test the Retro blast effects when you popped out the “smoking” visor.
Emma- traffic cone. Ugh.
And now I am curious what that new head looks like on your kitbash? 🧐
She doesn't have the other head left and she doesn't need to, this is Emma's best head to date, but of course not everyone has good taste.
I kept looking at the Emma Frost figure and I couldn't put my finger on who it looks like, that is until I started watching Harley Quinn and looked up who was doing the voice of Harley and then it hit me Kaley Cuoco. Could she possibly play Emma in an upcoming X Men movie?
You got poor Emma showing too much peg. 😂😂
💎💎💎
Can anyone tell me if this version of Emma Frost has the same skintone as the Retro Spiral? Please, thank you~
I appreciate that they used John Cassaday's art on the sides. Always nice when Hasbro go with the prominent artist of a story for the art.
Cyclops looks really good other than the height and lack of non-smoking visor and blast effect. So close, Hasbro! Emma looks okay given what the costume is, and I feel like a cloth cape would be perfect for a diamond version so she can do more arm stuff. The head sculpt isn't good, but Astonishing Emma is *my* costume for Emma. Perfect kitbash for me is Astonishing with Hellfire head Emma, since her hair changes all the time anyway. That'd be my "catch all" Emma.
Also, the New X-Men jacket look came before the Astonishing looks. I remember early on, Logan pushes back against the superhero-y Astonishing suits but Cyclops says the New X-Men suits were making people nervous.
Oh yeah, but then when they go to Breakworld and Cyke is playing possum with his eyeblasts he's wearing the puffy NewX jacket over his Astonishing costume.
@@TheFwoosh Ohhhh, I forgot about that! When I think of Cyclops' look on Breakworld, I just think of him shirtless and the "to me, my X-Men" page 😅
Okay, I'll admit, it's been a bit since I've read the series, maybe he was more naked by then. BUT, he was definitely wearing it when he first lost his blasts and was carrying the gun. I think. Somewhere in there.
You are definitely wrong, Emma Frost does not have short hair at any point in the Astonishing run. This is definitely her best face by far, at the end of the day it's identical to the art. They like to complain about nothing, it's her best face, period.
@@TheFwoosh Haha, he was wearing the jacket on Breakworld, you're right. I just never remember that look. If Hasbro made that look, hopefully it'd come with a visor-less, stubbly head sculpt. Would be nice to use with other figures.
I came here to see The Orb
these 2 only
You mentioned the Fantastic Four before one of the main members - Armor! Tsk tsk 😅
Emmas face😂
The best face for Emma frost!
@@douglascamacho5855 it looks like a guy with makeup or a young woman with 3 pounds of old lady makeup on.
We need armor for astonishing…and in general she rules
The new Jim Lee without the shading looks great... If only he didn't have duck feet
hmmm, never liked Cassaday's Emma's face, or his style for the X-Men in general. I'll prob get it, but will change the head to the Walgreen's exclusive from years ago.
The Walgreens head is no big deal, this head is superior. But hey, it's understandable if you don't like the art, but we wanted the Emma Astonishing and Just so we get.
Excuse me, but which site were you late-night surfing? I would like to accidentally find something cool like this, as well. Please and thank you.
cmdstore.com
@@TheFwoosh thanks for that
When are you gonna review anything Action Force ?
Is t that like military stuff?
So glad that Hasbro is going back to plastic viewing boxes.
Robo still thinks Marvel Legends come with accessories. How long was he on vacation?
Is it me or did they model Emma's face on Kaley Cuoco?
The best sculpt ever created for Emma
Emma Frost is a beautiful figure but they really messed it up with that cape design. It would have been better if it wasn't glued in the front and just supported by the back peg.
Robo, for different Cyclops heads and blast effects, I recommend using the Marvel Legends X-Men Cyclops that has his Krakoa outfit.
I can't get past the fact that Cyclops is shorter but thicker in the Ch'od wave. Clearly someone is up to no good!
😂😂😂
Thank you for this video. It helped me cancel my preorder. That Cyclops is too basic and Emma Frost is basically a statue. Neither of them justify paying 25 bucks each.
I never noticed how much Scott's costume here looks like a gimp suit.
Scott Summers finally getting his due. This is the respect he deserves as objectively the best X-Men.
The VHS one was actually very good.
Best x-men or best of the x-men? Or best x-man?
She looks like Christina Aguilera
