Yikes, you got dealt a bad copy. Even if your copy is bad, still a big shocker, looks almost like bootleg levels of paint quality, especially on that Dutch head.
I have no issue with this set at all. You do have some valid points but I think that it's good overall. I bought this set specifically for Dutch but wound up liking Linn more.
@@AnthonysCustoms Per wikipedia, "A Retool is a toy that has been created by modifying an existing mold to give it new features. This enables companies to create new toys without producing an entirely new mold from scratch." They reused most of the original Dutch mold and added new features. This falls under the umbrella of retool.
@@mangajoe You think the entire figure came out of one mold? As I said before, this figure uses old molds, and new ones. There is no retooling. If you're going to use wikipedia, you should actually look up what you're talking about first. You just inadvertently proved yourself wrong. Nice try though.
Neca making the figure yeah let’s just throw that on there with some of this with a little bit of that and release date how about tomorrow and go really lazy on it NECA YOU ARE GREAT SO MAKE YOUR FIGURES REAT XD
according to the images online, she's supposed to hold the sword in her left hand. so it makes me wonder if they changed some things with the final release
Bummer. I wonder if NECA had to get approval from Capcom to release the figures.. nobody said anythings about the sculpts before production? The prototype photos interests me a while back but I gave up on it all after watching this review.
The dutch figure who I think is Arnold Schwarzenegger on my Dutch robotic arm it’s loose to hell I basically have to position the entire arm to make it look like that he’s firing
I'm dissapoint on NECA for making this They really should have based it on the Arcade aesthetic The colors are where they should be but after watching it come together it looks very impractical , why Lin's sword hand is on that gun side what in the---, ok I can kind of give Dutch a pass since his leg joints are appropriate , I kind of like the face sculpt it is reminiscent of the twentieth Century Fox movie Predator which what they were going for My only complaint is Lin aside from her hair and arms which was the only accurate piece about her , her face and body mold could have been better sculptured she is a a Cyborg NECA could have made her eyes cybernetic to go with the look , she had expressions in the arcade port wish they had gave her 2 more face options , Dutch had a cigar but wasn't included in the face sculpt which is disappointing too I hope STORM collectibles took a look at the NECA designs and take a crack at it I feel they would do better at it ...just saying
I hope neca just give up sometime. I mean i know some or u are saying it's better than nothing. But for me either u go all the way or nothing at all idc. They hold the licence for some of the most iconic character and the stuff they throw out is pissing me off in-term of articulation.
I’m completely okay with Linn’s head sculpt, but Dutch’s face..... YIKES. I wish this video had come out before my preorder had shipped. Maybe mine will look better?
Linn's face is really bad. It did not match the promotional pic on the box at all. The eyes on the boxart was on point. Not sure y they changed the final product
Nah, it was never on point IMO. Whether you're looking at the avatar, sprites or in-game cinematic the body proportions and faces were always off. Just the final thing turned into a complete monstrosity that went from tolerable-tier to avoid at all costs.
@@AnthonysCustoms Darn, any chance it will be activated again? looking forward to joining your community and having here and there conversations with yourself. : )
I like that you gave this review your honest opinion, regardless of NECA giving you free products to review.
i don't think NECA sends anybody free stuff to review. pretty sure he buys almost everything.
Maybe you should watch the video before answering for me.
Linn Kurosawa is a so cool character, she deserves to be better known and to have more fan art.
Linn never used both weapons at the same time in the arcade game.
Dutch's face... I could live with Linn's face but Dutch got wrecked.
Dutch fell out of the ugly tree, and his face hit every limb on the way down.
Maybe customizing his face looking like a bit animated Arnie would help.
I'm sold. amazon here I come!
Is Major Dutch the same character from Dutch in the original Predator movie?
Yes it is.
Yikes, you got dealt a bad copy. Even if your copy is bad, still a big shocker, looks almost like bootleg levels of paint quality, especially on that Dutch head.
Aw man i was really looking forward to these. Im gonna have to pass on these sadly. Thanks for the review man!

"Is that just a reused Arnold hand?" Did you miss that he's just a Dutch figure that's retooled into Arcade Dutch?
Retooled. I love when people don't know what they're talking about try to pretend to be clever on the internet.
@@AnthonysCustoms Its a new arm and head on the original Dutch body, how is that not a light retool?
@@mangajoe Entirely new parts are entirely new tooling. Entirely old parts are entirely old tooling. There is no retooling...at all.

Awesome, I just played this last month with my kids, memories of the old Arcades

Yea they could’ve done better on her face could’ve made it look a bit more animeish or closer to the game.

Joseph Jostar: Holy Shit!!!!!!!!!!
i'd buy a couple custom heads for this set. hint hint.
Is it just me, or does her camo look like bacon strips xD
Whoa...Dutch's face is messed up.
Poor Dutch! A face with no features. He looks like Odo from Star Trek: Deep Space 9.
I really wanted to like this 2 pack. I bought it and I can't open it because it just looks horrendous. I'm very disappointed.
may you make a list of top 10 batman figure , I am collecting batman 😍

These look like they are made as cost saving as possible.

I was really looking forward to these figures.
Anthony the dream crusher :(
Hopefully they'll redo this with other companies like figma, s.h. figuarts, play arts kai, or at least bring arts 😕
Dutch looks like Ron Perlman after 40 seconds in a microwave. My god it's such a disappointment. lmao
Lol
