I wasnt real happy with this Blade either. I ordered a custom 3d printed wesley snipes head, and swapping the arms out as soon as i find a set im happy with. It really is disappointing when these companies do stuff like this.
So the recipe is one Valaverse figure, a custom Weasley Snips head, a random trenchcoat, two Vala or Classified pistols and a sword. Got it. Saved me spending the $25 on Hasbros Westley Screams. I joke though. That bash is fire and so is the 3d print. As always, keep it 100.
You know you nailed the tone and overall esthetics when it makes you want to fire up the movie. Sometimes a little effort goes a long way, you hear that Hasbruh?
I remember the interview at one of the comic cons and they said which would we rather have, 100 figures a year or 30. I'd rather have 30 good ones. Right now, I think I've gotten 5 so far this year? Most of them on clearance. And I think it was the same interview they said that Marvel Legends were producing the best figures every. Hard nah.
Glad you showed that you can fix the arms a bit with some shaving. I wasn't even planning on using the coat, I have a soft goods wired black coat I was planning on using for Blade when he finally came out. The coat already looks good with the Valaverse body and the Marvel Legend's SHIELD Agent two pack head. Was trying to decide if I should just get some glasses and use some other blades and guns I already have and call it a day for Blade then this one was announced. I do like the screaming head, though I really wished we had a neutral expression. The underbody is a win for me, good to know it can still be usable. I had almost changed my mind in picking him up through most of the video. Like come on, how you going to have so little range of motion on Blade?
Nice idea, and there are other black coat options available if ML Blade is out of reach. Manchine Baf wave Red Skull comes to mind. I'm just hoping we get a Spiderman Animated series version of Blade, either on a retro card or part of a VHS two pack with Morbius being the perfect foe in that set.
Your kit bash is the Blade that I wanted. A Blade figure should be highly possible. A Blade figure needs his gear (sword, guns, and hand blades). The sword sheath needs to be connected to trench coat or hidden underneath it. The head sculpt needs a bad a$$ vibe to it. That fangs head sculpt is fine as an alternate head, but not as the only option. This isn't hate on Hasbro. It's just frustrating that we only get a Blade figure every 3-5 years and when we do it's mid or straight trash. I'm the going to hit your boi up on Etsy. I need the painted head, sunglasses and weapons.
Snipes was my intro to Blade and liked the lore but part three and current marvel are just sad days. A blade figure should come with an optional coat massive weapons and at least three heads I seen Mattel do this for their wrestling figures would love that for blade
I deff would like to see more bro 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 that is official especially the head sculpt my boi bob ross kit bash lol stay bless and im deff being there tomorrow 🙌💪☝🙏
With amount of sub par product coming from Marvel in general (the MCU, Sony, the comics and figures), I've been considering doing a huge culling of my Marvel Legends and DC Universe Classics/Multiverse collection. I just don't have the passion like I used to have.
God damn now I need to find a Valaverse black trooper. I was really looking forward to finally getting a Blade figure as I only started collecting ML a couple of years ago, I even got his sword from etsy and the guy even sent the guns with it too. Then the figure arrived and the arms don't even come close to looking natural. God damn it Hasbro so disappointing
dammit, I really wish you would’ve made this video two weeks ago before I pull the trigger on buying the mezco blade off Macar! Oh well I may end up doing this anyway! Thx for the vid and keep up the great work!
So you pretty much already had a Blade figure minus the trench coat, in your collection… You just needed this latest Blade figure for some inspiration. 😅
Other then the arms this is a home run to me and I barely buy ML. This fits perfect with my Punisher display and will go PERFECTLY with the Ramen racer as the Blade car from the movie.
Bro thank you!! I had been looking so forward to that Blade figure, and when i finally got it a few weeks ago, i posed him and immediately put him down cuz between the jacket, the lack of arm movement, and the permanently screaming head, i was just so disappointed. I’ve been wanting to kitbash now for awhile, but im totally ignorant to what to use and how to begin. Do you have any suggestions on some kind of starter kit or the main products i need?
Nice job man! Daisho is awesome. Pretty sure my Mephisto custom uses a headsculpt from him off his etsy. I did a custom Blade a while ago because i didn't think we'd ever get that ROML Blade tease from many years ago. Sadly... Hasbro still hasn't done Blade right. The Havok arms actually cause me anxiety. 🤣
The blade really needed better arms, butterfly joints and vertical hinges on his holding hands and yeah a plain head sculpt. It's frustrating they did same with figures like thunderstrike and the hood who are just screaming but then the siryn who's powers are too scream has just a plain head 🤦. Great custom though I was looking at roadblock from classified line but this is great.
And just like that, crisis evaded going down this route instead. Money spent on a better design. Helps Blade doesn't have a signature logo unlike most characters, so having that mold works.
Hi mate great video, love the custom, however the body and the arms don't bother me but the open mouth bothers me a lot. Does the custom head from Daisho Creations fit on the Marvel Legends ball joint neck at all? Thanks 👍🏻
Tbh its really the headsculpt thats doing the heavy lifting, cause really its like you stated just blades coat on a valaverse body. It still needs a set of arms that are jacket/coat like instead of army shirt arms.
Looks good but I'm stuck with that crop too tight fade from thr Wesley Snipes movie. They could have given Snipes as the 1st Marvel movie if in recognition. Snipes did burn a lot of Bridges in Hollywood though. But Snipes was/is BLADE.
I just used the none teeth showing head from my mezco heated up the head and it pops right on the Marvel legends blade the arms i trimmed and under the arms so that they can move in more
One Question tho, what's the hardness on the sculpts, is it like moderate hard PVC or is it dense to the point that if theres a thin piece of plastic it's going to break easy if I'm not careful, I ordered 2 samurai heads a while ago. and 1 was broken when I squeezed it too hard, or the shiroko part of the kaboto to be specific, just wanna know incase I feel like purchasing some heads from daisho later down the line.
For me they are the same as most prints but the way he paints I unfortunately dropped mine a few times and it didn't scratch at all or chip because of a layer of coating that he probably uses as a finish so I got lucky. But if there's really things parts I'm sure they could break since it's 3d printed.
That killmonger at the end was 🔥
Oh Heck yeah man please do more 🤩🥷🙏

Boy I LOST IT when that sleep apnea growl came 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
That head sculpt looking great, Daisho really done a great job.
And road to 20k man
You know you nailed the tone and overall esthetics when it makes you want to fire up the movie.
Sometimes a little effort goes a long way, you hear that Hasbruh?
Nice work turning a lemon in to two glasses of lemonade.
🤣 that was slick role keeper
Bruh! That Head sculpt goes HARD!!!
OutFUCKIN'standing!!!💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
😃Now that's a Blade Shaft custom look!🤯He almost look like wesley snipes!😲👍
Some action figure companies are always trying to ice-skate uphill...
I’m writing this 5:47 into the video and already thinking “well shit now I need to upgrade my blade figure” dope video ninja!!
🤣 thanks rilla for supporting
Man, I can’t find that action force figure anywhere. Sold out. Wanted to follow this kitbash.
Check cmdstore.com
Gr8 vid. Gr8 use of those parts & customs!

QCR/Kitbash videos is how I found your channel and remain my favorite of your videos. If you make them, I will come.
🙏🏽 thank you more on the way
See… there you go again… inspiring me to spend more money… LOL, freakin’ love your channel man. Your kitbashes/customs are amazing.
My man hit em with the Keven Samuels 😂
I love that valaverse blank body. I used it to make a punisher cuz punisher without butterfly joints is wild
That turned out great. I love kitbashing with AF figures so I’m always down to see more kitbashing. Have a day sir.
That came out killer man. Great video brother
Glad you showed that you can fix the arms a bit with some shaving. I wasn't even planning on using the coat, I have a soft goods wired black coat I was planning on using for Blade when he finally came out.
The coat already looks good with the Valaverse body and the Marvel Legend's SHIELD Agent two pack head. Was trying to decide if I should just get some glasses and use some other blades and guns I already have and call it a day for Blade then this one was announced.
I do like the screaming head, though I really wished we had a neutral expression. The underbody is a win for me, good to know it can still be usable. I had almost changed my mind in picking him up through most of the video. Like come on, how you going to have so little range of motion on Blade?
BRO NO FUCKING WAYYYYYY!!!!!!! That shit looks sick as fuck!
🙏🏽 thanks delta
You made the ordinary into a masterpiece!
🙏🏽 thank you
Wow, this all looks amazing! Great job! You have a real good imagination when it comes to this mixing and matching figures!👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍
More recipes for sure.
Good thing is you will probably get another blade down the road with Mezco. Wonder if Mafex would make him.
Nice idea, and there are other black coat options available if ML Blade is out of reach. Manchine Baf wave Red Skull comes to mind. I'm just hoping we get a Spiderman Animated series version of Blade, either on a retro card or part of a VHS two pack with Morbius being the perfect foe in that set.
Definitely want that SAS 🕷️ Blade 🩸

All valid points 🔥
Snipes was my intro to Blade and liked the lore but part three and current marvel are just sad days. A blade figure should come with an optional coat massive weapons and at least three heads I seen Mattel do this for their wrestling figures would love that for blade
That Black Commando Snake Eyes body and new Spiderman Noir might be an option as well.
Awesomely done customs.
And those Sentinel heads got me acting up!
The toybiz blade was peak only to be outdone but diamond select (not 1/12 scale) and mezco that cost 4 times as much. Only way ti custom
I deff would like to see more bro 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 that is official especially the head sculpt my boi bob ross kit bash lol stay bless and im deff being there tomorrow 🙌💪☝🙏
That came out so dope! Simple and effective! 🔥🔥🔥
I Appreciate it thanks
Gaaaaad damn, from the intro to the custom this video was fire 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
With amount of sub par product coming from Marvel in general (the MCU, Sony, the comics and figures), I've been considering doing a huge culling of my Marvel Legends and DC Universe Classics/Multiverse collection. I just don't have the passion like I used to have.
Sick!!! Congrats from Rio de Janeiro!!!
Thank you 🙏🏽
Interesting ... I need that Blade sword and a wired trench coat.
That would be a nice combo
Flawless kitbash! Damn well imma have to kitbash mine when it comes in.
Diggin' that head sculpt! Would be a cool alternate head for War Machine too! All up for MORE #kitbashing vids too!
The head sculpt looks like a tall Kevin Hart
This looks crazy 🔥🔥🔥I’ve been definitely thinking about doing some adjustments for it when I get mine.
Yo You should even if it's not the head swap body swap or arm shaving to get more range of motion is a must 🔥
Well done with this kitbash. I love it
After seeing this I'm definitely ordering that head sculpt. Thanks for the info and dope content
God damn now I need to find a Valaverse black trooper. I was really looking forward to finally getting a Blade figure as I only started collecting ML a couple of years ago, I even got his sword from etsy and the guy even sent the guns with it too. Then the figure arrived and the arms don't even come close to looking natural. God damn it Hasbro so disappointing
I've been asking hasbro to make a Blade for years. 😥. I wanted the 90s Midnight Son's/Spider-Man tas look
dammit, I really wish you would’ve made this video two weeks ago before I pull the trigger on buying the mezco blade off Macar! Oh well I may end up doing this anyway! Thx for the vid and keep up the great work!
Mezco blade looks good though as well
Got my blade yesterday in the mail and it’s not half that bad, just wish hasbro would make more cloth goods for a better black trench coat
If only there was a Wesley snipes painted head sculpt
He has one of those as well lol
@@ArticulatedNinja stop playing I literally checked daisho page BRB again
FIRE 🔥🔥🔥 Kit Bash !!! QCR ❤ for the Win !!! 🫡🫡🫡
This was sick af. Imma hit up daisho and see whats good. Good looks
yooooo! thats dope af fam!
As always brother great review! Even better animation!!!!
Chef’s kiss
Great suggestions Sir!!!
Thanks huntmaster 🙏🏽
Wow. That’s some cool mods I’m tempted to copy. Great.
Excellent custom / vid. TY!
This is 🔥🔥🔥
Awesome video good bro!!!
Love the customs. Do the heads pop on or blue tack
Bro, if Keith David was Blade also
He has a deep voice of a vampire hunter.😄
So you pretty much already had a Blade figure minus the trench coat, in your collection… You just needed this latest Blade figure for some inspiration. 😅
Pretty much To put everything together
Damn, I was satisfied with this figure into watching this lol. I was just blindly happy I got a blade.
That guy can paint a head sculpt.Im new here i enjoy the content its really well done and you can see the effort you've put into it cheers 🍻
They will probably reused this body for a 90’s Spider-Man Animated Morbius.😮
Yo that's the hardest blade I have ever seen. As we speak im looking to get that body & head sculpt.
Agreed, do more kit bashes. Sometimes, it takes a different perspective to reach a better outcome ✨️ 💯
Most definitely! Thank you again Alex for supporting the way you always do
Other then the arms this is a home run to me and I barely buy ML. This fits perfect with my Punisher display and will go PERFECTLY with the Ramen racer as the Blade car from the movie.
so beautiful 😢
lets get articulated ninja to work for marvel legends to elevate the figures ! amazing job ! keep it up
Man that blade out of the box is dull as a butter knife.
🤣
That killmonger to cold !
Looks Good!
Excellent job, BUT, you too will realise just like me after getting this figure... We dont have any really cool 6" vampires to slay 😢
Vampire Storm, Nosferatu, I'm sure there are others...
well there's NECA's Dracula and the Storm Collectables Dimitri, and there was also Morbius and Morlun in Legends
Bro thank you!! I had been looking so forward to that Blade figure, and when i finally got it a few weeks ago, i posed him and immediately put him down cuz between the jacket, the lack of arm movement, and the permanently screaming head, i was just so disappointed. I’ve been wanting to kitbash now for awhile, but im totally ignorant to what to use and how to begin. Do you have any suggestions on some kind of starter kit or the main products i need?
You was not the only one disappointed
This is some of the best content you do 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Nice job man! Daisho is awesome. Pretty sure my Mephisto custom uses a headsculpt from him off his etsy. I did a custom Blade a while ago because i didn't think we'd ever get that ROML Blade tease from many years ago. Sadly... Hasbro still hasn't done Blade right. The Havok arms actually cause me anxiety. 🤣

And just like that, crisis evaded going down this route instead. Money spent on a better design. Helps Blade doesn't have a signature logo unlike most characters, so having that mold works.
I bought the whole wave for $175, sold the BAF for $125. Hard to be upset with any of them for about 7 bucks a piece.
Yooo You Are The Truth Youngin. SALUTE
Your figure is incredible!
I actually used the ML war machine deluxe head and fits pretty good and natural blade look too all you need is 1/12 scale black shades
Hi mate great video, love the custom, however the body and the arms don't bother me but the open mouth bothers me a lot. Does the custom head from Daisho Creations fit on the Marvel Legends ball joint neck at all? Thanks 👍🏻
No he leaves it open so you can use it on multiple different figure lines if you want l use blu putty to give it a nice nug fit/feel
@@ArticulatedNinja Thanks for the reply
Tbh its really the headsculpt thats doing the heavy lifting, cause really its like you stated just blades coat on a valaverse body.
It still needs a set of arms that are jacket/coat like instead of army shirt arms.
thank you i just did it still ml head but vala body and blade jacket it gives you gun hands too!
Looks good but I'm stuck with that crop too tight fade from thr Wesley Snipes movie. They could have given Snipes as the 1st Marvel movie if in recognition. Snipes did burn a lot of Bridges in Hollywood though. But Snipes was/is BLADE.
Amazing Blade!
Sick af
Really wanna see if the Rage figure's lower legs and boots would look good on this blade for a more simple look
Not surprised about the Valaverse fig would be involved
🤣 I'm not surprised 1 person would say that
I just used the none teeth showing head from my mezco heated up the head and it pops right on the Marvel legends blade the arms i trimmed and under the arms so that they can move in more
Smart moves
Daaamn that looks good.
Great video fam. Stay up
Appreciate it
Aite a cheaper option i would use be to use the shades from cobra island roadblock and sgt stalker head
One Question tho, what's the hardness on the sculpts, is it like moderate hard PVC or is it dense to the point that if theres a thin piece of plastic it's going to break easy if I'm not careful, I ordered 2 samurai heads a while ago. and 1 was broken when I squeezed it too hard, or the shiroko part of the kaboto to be specific, just wanna know incase I feel like purchasing some heads from daisho later down the line.

But if there's really things parts I'm sure they could break since it's 3d printed.
Actually there is a mezco blade from the movie
