MARVEL LEGENDS X-MEN RETRO WAVE 2 REVIEW

[@RedMist59]

That Spiral is gorgeous, can't wait to get her, Avalanche and Phoenix

[@Xmanny87]

You’re going to love it!

[@davearquette3303]

Literally didn't watch any reviews for this wave until you put yours up, and I love the full wave videos! Merry Christmas Xmanny!

[@Xmanny87]

Thanks man! I’m glad to hear that you valued my opinion first. Normally, I don’t do full wave reviews but some folks like when I do that. So I do it sometimes to please that crowd when I can.

[@everythingmancoolcd7841]

I gotta say spiral is my favorite out of this because it’s something different and it does it good

[@Xmanny87]

She’s the goat 🐐

[@troyr4521]

I appreciate the X-men retro 2 wave review, Manny. I preordered mine off BBTS. Imo all the figures of this wave look great. I love my X-men. Hearing your opinion on this wave eases the wait I have ahead for this wave. I want to wish you and yours a very Merry Christmas. ✌🏻✌🏻To add, Spiral makes this wave even better to own.

[@Xmanny87]

For sure bro. Wave of the year hands down! Also, Merry Christmas to you and yours as well.

[@Tyler_Lalonde-]

This is a great wave. Avalanche could've been great. But Spiral is perfect. I'll be getting 2 and swapping some arms for different looks.

[@Xmanny87]

I was thinking the same. I may want to give her 2 cybernetic arms.

[@wilfredolopez1566]

I have phoenix and spiral but I noticed on the x men cartoons, spiral have two metal arms it doesn't matter because she's a great figurine.

[@beastmastersage]

Spiral, Longshot and Dark Phoenix look Epic! BTW I like Multiple Man’s X-Factor Outfit way Better!

[@NohatSkills]

Avalanche looks like a guy in cosplay😅

[@Xmanny87]

Lol pretty much

[@jonathanhampshire6856]

Who ate a beetroot sandwich.😂

[@Super1866]

I got Avalanche because we were definitely due one. He could have been a lot better though. The box art/card art is often better than the figure but it would seem like they don't even make these figures with the box art/card art in mind.

[@Xmanny87]

No because the figure is made waaaaay before the art. They hire artists to draw up the character for the figure they already have rendered. The artist will go by that render look and may tweak some features in their own art.

[@Super1866]

@@Xmanny87 I guess I was hoping he'd be more like Avalanche as opposed to a guy in cosplay. It's ok but I think that Hasbro could have done a lot better.

[@jimwheeler9840]

@Xmanny87 Timing shouldn't matter that much. They have years of comic art for reference. Pick a version to use as the primary reference for both the figure and the card art and use it throughout the process, no matter who does what or when. The disconnect between the art (both the card and the comics) and the fig here is honestly inexcusable, if anyone is paying attention/ communicating at even a basic level around this stuff.

[@Super1866]

@@jimwheeler9840 That is correct, yes.

[@fernandodelgado4329]

Despite me not going to all of these figures, My own personal list raking are definitely........
1. Spiral
2. #275 issue blue and yellow team suit Wolverine
3. Dark Phoenix
4. Longshot
5. Avalanche
6. Multiple Man

[@Xmanny87]

Thanks for sharing your ranking. Spiral is trending on everyone’s number 1 for the wave.

[@hasbrosucks6033]

If you kitbash Multiple Man with his trench coat from the other version, please put up a UA-cam Short, or pix on your Instagram. Thanks! I still remember your kitbash with Hellfire Club guards. Crazy awesome!

[@Xmanny87]

Thanks bro! Yeah, If I do, I’ll post it.

[@oldmancollector7649]

XManny87. Sorry to comment on another video and not this one but just saw the nerdy awards and thought you were great . I love seeing the community come together. Awesome

[@Xmanny87]

It’s all good man. Lol. Thank you bro. It was awesome and a lot of fun. 😁

[@jasondarling1746]

I have to go with the TRU 2 pack Pheonix. She just looks more accurate to the Claremont Byrne X-Men run.

[@salmanakhtar9330]

X” da man Manny “
You make them look extra good .
Happy holidays ,Merry Christmas 🎄
You are my inspiration and by far the “BEST”
marvel legends reviewer.
Story line /on the shelf segment and the knowledge to connect time limes in marvel universe is simply amazing 🤩.
Thank you 😊 and can’t wait to see the next collection video 💫🔥👏🏽🦾👊🏽✨💥

[@Xmanny87]

I’m glad you think that highly of me. That makes me feel treasured and it means a ton. Happy Holidays to you and yours.

[@horse71]

Great video, thanks! I have this Spiral still in the box, looks so great

[@marvelfanatic9535]

I’m x-cited to have this Wave soon!!!

[@RyeLeeBread]

What a good wave, honestly.

[@Xmanny87]

100%

[@stevengarcia9010]

Great work, Manny.

[@romeoalpha68]

The Alt head for Multiple Map gives off Mr. smith from the Matrix vibes .

[@VVizdachozenone97]

Avalanche looks like peacemaker, spiral is definitely the clear winner for this retro carded wave. Hasbro really delivered very well on that spiral figure, now all we need really is an updated man-spider to give him that same treatment as Spiral.

[@Xmanny87]

I’m dying for a fully articulated Man-Spider.

[@VVizdachozenone97]

@@Xmanny87 yup we’re overdue for a man-spider, really much needed.

[@drake7822]

Thinking of getting the wolverine for my first one ever do you think thats a good idea?

[@nicholascorrin4648]

Happy holidays tiger! Thank you fur such great posts

[@Xmanny87]

Thanks! Happy Holidays to you and yours.

[@marvelousnick352]

Great pose for Phoenix at the end

[@Xmanny87]

Much appreciated. Thank you Nick.

[@RIO85ful]

I was waiting your review for this wave :) Really enjoying these in-depth reviews of yours. BTW Spiral is the X-men figure of the year i think.

[@Xmanny87]

Thank you man! Yeah, that’s a tough one. Between her and Bonebreaker for me.

[@RIO85ful]

@@Xmanny87 yeah i thought so after i saw your Bonebreaker wave review. For me its Spiral thou Bonebreaker is awesome as well. Merry Christmas man!

[@marvelousnick352]

I’m glad you did the entire wave like this great video bro

[@Xmanny87]

I normally don’t do it this way but I know some people like it. So I do it sometimes to balance that out.

[@figureobsessive]

Can't wait for this! I just got the shipping email

[@fernandodelgado4329]

Since I'll probably get the heat claws Wolverine figure from my own friend as a late birthday gift because I don't have Wolverine, Now I'll add him, classic 80s Havok, Maggot, 80 Outback Rogue head on the AOA Rogue for a Jim Lee version, Longshot, Dark Phoenix, Marvel Girl from 2021 will be awesome finish my own very cool X-MEN comic display.

[@Xmanny87]

That’s super exciting to hear. Hope my video got you more excited for them.

[@alealejo78]

Love Spiral !

[@jommelsison7267]

Great review...
Alternate head for avalanche logo and effects. It will be better on the figure...

[@Xmanny87]

Yeah. This will just be a placeholder until we get the definitive Avalanche.

[@jommelsison7267]

With the price of marvel legends nowadqys, satisfaction on every collector is a must...

[@FoxyThePirate2003]

Very nice wave my favorite one figure would be the Wolverine also will we see a review on the King in black two pack? Just curious

[@Xmanny87]

Nope. This’ll be my last review of the year and I’ll just focus on the new figures in 2023.

[@danielvillarreal4635]

Brother Manny. His man purse is called a satchel. A satchel Indiana Jones carried a satchel

[@goliathandwasp]

I Just got a idea to share with you as X-MEN Fan like yourself i thought of issue 126 Multipleman in a trench coat from Toy biz Gambit series 3 cloth version i tried it it works when Proteus attacked him on Muir island looks good i'm on finding my 6 th one Multiple man solid figure maybe customizing the face hmmmmmmm ps great review

[@graefx]

On the topic of 6 arm spidey, I'll admit that arms straight down is accurate to the design. Just that figure was crap.
Spiral might be my most anticipated. I can't believe they did her so well. When I first started collecting I remember looking a on card Spiral for $50 and passing. Glad i didn't cave since. I remember seeing a custom and thinking Hasbro would never do her justice. Her, cannon Iron Man, just need a better Cable with BFG to complete my classic MvC2 team.

[@dreamshatterer6514]

Awesome review and spot on

[@Xmanny87]

Thank you so much!

[@THESPIDEYGEEKSTUDIOS]

Pls review amazing friends 3 pack!

[@darktitanx117]

Wave 3: Deathbird, Destiny, Ahab, Armored Psylocke, the Brood, Raza Longknife

[@Xmanny87]

Good picks but I don’t see the Brood fitting in that retro card.

[@darktitanx117]

@@Xmanny87 They can extend it or make size fitting drones like Marvel Select.

[@sinchman1]

I just purchased Avalanche was he gummy to you...Also I removed the paint off the lips and it looks much better

[@jonathanhampshire6856]

Spyral, Dark Phoenix/Wolvie, superb. Multiple Man needed the bigger shoulders that came with Falcon. Avalanche is a character I wanted but they did him no favours with this figure. The head and helmet are awful and the arms are skinny. No seismic effects either. Such a shame.

[@Xmanny87]

Yeah they did him dirty and they did us dirty for making us wait so long just to make him the most disappointing figure in a wave.

[@PHealey1981]

Thought Madrox’s first appearance was more of a misunderstanding with the FF rather than him being a villain?

[@danielvillarreal4635]

We should have got a white costume Phoenix

[@CAUSEDEATH]

Wish I could get these in hand.

[@Xmanny87]

When you do, you’re going to love it.

[@josephp8008]

May I ask where you got the stand for Dark Phoenix at the end of video?

[@Xmanny87]

I think it was from the Marvel Selects Phoenix figure.

[@danielvillarreal4635]

Ya know a on the Bell no waves no Rock accessories

[@hrishikeshsaikia476]

If every wave is as good as this ... Ideally it would be best if the lowest rated figure in a wave is in 7 range .
At least this time only one was below avg .And rest of them they did justice

[@Xmanny87]

Avalanche is definitely the weakest link of the wave for me.

[@romeoalpha68]

How is everyone getting these .
Mine are still on Preorder.
They say they won't be shipped until March .

[@Xmanny87]

I preordered from cmdstore.com

[@monolith_g]

Gotta have spiral

[@Xmanny87]

She’s the one to get in this wave. A must have.

[@lord_juuj7]

May we ask where you picked yours up?

[@Xmanny87]

I had mine preordered from CMDstore

[@nighter619]

Is it me or does Avalanche looks like Hot Squidward??
