@@vidfreak727they were good, problem was most people only wanted the core 5, super 7 didn’t release not one single version of the core 5 in their regular outfits so people lost interest pretty fast. if you would’ve started with atleast one main on every wave then super 7 would’ve been making money on the line
this is called cope. it has no basis in reality or logic and is simply you trying to rationalize your shortcomings to protect your fragile ego. super7 isn't even that expensive for an action figure. they're about mid to upper mid price range. the problem is...they suck and s7 is a crap company ran by moron grifting hipsters
I was watching toy shiz review not only can they scale well with old playmates toys but they can also fit in the old diorama pieces, jakks thought about old/new collectors when making these which is a big plus in my book! I don’t understand how super7 fumbled this bag
These look amazing which is going to hurt my wallet. I grew up with the Mattel 1990 Simpsons figures but i dont here a lot of love for them but they had great sculpts and on some figures 6 poa in 1990 which was amazing back then.
Jakks is giving two giant middle fingers to most other toy manufacturers with their quality and price points right now. SF for $25 with tons of accessories? These figures for $13? Just awesome! Have a blast at SDCC!
100% !!!!!!!! - Nobody has done anything decent with them since Toynami and they sell for big bucks now, i know as sold my reissue 'Bender' figure MOC for £100
Super7 fumbled the bag so hard on Simpsons. It's a shame cuz that could've been their "NECA TMNT" line. Oh well, looks like I'm diving head first into Jakks Simpson at a super savings price 🤑
Simpsons figures seem more of a 12.99 line than a 49.99 line. Ill take these over the super7 versions any day of the week. The excuses for companies overcharging have worn thin. Very thin.
Non-variant family members in the first wave? Absolute madness! 😲 Seriously, though, as much as I do like Super7, that was one of the dumbest decisions they ever made, and they deserve to lose The Simpsons license if they were determined to be so stubborn about that. I'm rooting for Jakks' line to do well. Also, I'm glad their upcoming Bartman has the blue shirt, which is what he's more popularly known for. Anywho, great review, Hatter! I agree that just because a figure is cheap doesn't mean you have to lower your standards to accept subpar quality, and these prove what this price point can bring!
For the price looks good.. but I got spoiled w s7.. I don't see myself getting these.. really wish s7 released that Willy, though.. sucks they dropped the ball, but I am still very happy with what we got, Kang and kodos are amazing
So right, Playmates had 1 outta 2. The OG Sketch Turts are Fabulous but the Orange Peel Turts pure crap. Now Jakks hits the sweet spot with these. Cheap but hella good gonna buy them all.
Bruh, I had no idea that these even existed! I've been all over Jakks Paciffic 2.5 Super Mario and Sonic figures. They are cool. I want(ed) Super 7's Bartman but I think that I'll wait till he goes on sale. After I saw this vid' I went to Target and picked up Bart. Haven't unboxed him yet. They should have added his sling shot, though!
I'm so torn. I pre-ordered the Jakks Simpsons 2.5" family set because I love the house/living room Diorama that I pre-ordered. But I love the 4" in this video. I'm stuck on which to get. Would it look weird if I did the 4" figs with the 2.5" scale Diorama?
I feel like Bart should've come with SLH, and when they do Lisa, she comes with Snowball 2 just to pad the kids out a bit more since they are smaller compared to the adults.
I was on the fence about this line (I'm into way too many lines at the moment) but this review has changed my mind about dipping a toe into it. Definitely not all, but the main characters I like... Price point also seems great for what you get.
They're pretty much the same scale as the old Playmates line, which disappointed me since I wanted something a bit bigger to scale better with everything else on my cramped shelf. I may swap out the main Simpsons family with these new ones, but I'm in no rush. And every Bart I've seen has his pupils out of alignment.
Do kids even watch The Simpsons? Especially this day and age. This seems like the kind of thing Neca would be handling. This makes me think they're expecting adults to buy these too. Looking at the Sonic line I don't see variants of the characters happening AT ALL unless it's the main character. For Sonic, all they've changed really are the expressions.
I’m pretty sure The Simpsons is still going exactly because kids and younger generations are watching. People of my age (I’m 42) are not exactly fans of what the show has become after season 12 or so. Not that there aren’t good episodes occasionally, but it’s a far cry from where the show started.
I'm glad for everyone that loves these, but holy shit that's a big empty box for those guys! Looking at other figures that come in a similar size box ( For MUCH more expensive prices of course ) it's packed with accessories, like Earthworm Jim. That Bart though, so much empty area, I wish they would have made the packaging smaller or blister pack it so it's not so disappointing. Price is on point I guess though
I like that they almost resemble the Mattel packaging from the early 90s Also, i already like them much better than the playmates line. Never liked the playmates versions Also, I was shocked when I saw the price at $12.99 at Target... Was expecting the usual $19.99/$24.99 price which all figures are now.
“I went to Target for non-toy reasons”
Sure dude, me too 😂
Can’t wait to hear about your SDCC experience man!
Super7 fumbled the simpsons license. Jakks gonna take the ball and run it all the way.
How so? The figures were good looking in my opinion
But Super 7 Simpsons are painted and it get worn out easily.

they ruined there whole company trying to do everything and completing nothing. terrible qc.
@@retrorampage9015 Indeed
Simpsons have way too many characters to be charging s7 prices. Jakks is a perfect model for that amount

There is no non toy Target visit. Just Target Runs that end with non toy purchases.
Bingo
Yeah, it’s a toy run and might as well pick up some necessities while you’re there…😅
Jakks and Jada are making Hasbro, NECA, and Super 7 look really bad in terms of price.
Love that their front loading main characters.
Yeah and Zuru is kicking Nerfs ass 😂
💯
which is why we should stop paying the prices hasbro is asking.
i refuse to buy 25 dollar figures anymore from hasbro.
Disagree on Neca. Their price point is fantastic for the quality you get.
For the price, these are everything I'd want other than some ankle tilt. But, again, price.
Now I just hope this leads into a Futurama line ☺️
If this line goes the distance it’s gonna be epic. The deluxe figs look great too!
Don’t have a cow man
I can see it now, the whole town of Springfield 🤩
So many good Simpsons toys from JAKKS!! The whole line is gonna be insane!
JAKKS knocking it out of the park on so many lines these days.
I’ve got their new Evil Krusty Doll on order. Can’t wait.
Hatter Nation 🎩👍👍👍👍
The price and quality is crazy. and the option to get them 2.5” scale for half the price is even crazier. I’m all in.
Just picked up Bart and Homer. Holy crap, these are such good quality figures for the price.
🎶JAKKS PACIFIC RUNNING POSE!🎶

Jada Toys does Street Fighter, not Jakks.
Futurama next! Here's hoping.

awesome!! I picked up all of wave 1 as well
Good luck with comicon.
These are the figures we wanted 30 years ago🤷🏻♂️

Totally agree Hatter! This is a great line at a great price.
Hatter, 👍 Jakks execution on these Simpson figures. There is a smaller scale line too. I swear..have a hella good time at SDCC✌️
Cant wait for wave 2/3!!!!
I love that Jakks is doing it, I don't like Super7 pricing. I'd love to see Jakks doing Family Guy too.
These look great. Great buy at 13 bucks
So right, Playmates had 1 outta 2. The OG Sketch Turts are Fabulous but the Orange Peel Turts pure crap. Now Jakks hits the sweet spot with these. Cheap but hella good gonna buy them all.
I love the commentary!
For me personally, I opted out of the Super7 line because of the price tag.
I wonder if we'll get an Apu.
Probably not but they should do It anyway.
Bruh, I had no idea that these even existed! I've been all over Jakks Paciffic 2.5 Super Mario and Sonic figures. They are cool. I want(ed) Super 7's Bartman but I think that I'll wait till he goes on sale.

Hello keeper ,if you haven't got Flanders & wiggums small digs ,let me know ,you can have them at cost,if you do great
Walmart will have exclusive ones Target will have exclusive ones
I feel like Bart should've come with SLH, and when they do Lisa, she comes with Snowball 2 just to pad the kids out a bit more since they are smaller compared to the adults.
There is a family pack with the pets as well, but they are 2,5inch instead of 5 inch, and have less articulation.
@@jarosbodytko6462 I know but I mean for the 5 inch figs
Found Homer & Bart today. Can't wait to find the rest.
Great start fair price great sculpt in scale with playmates figures and diaorama very excited I think this will go far
just missed the fucking bartman walmart pre order..
i got doubles of the rest though to trade lol.
I had a ton of the original ones that I bought at a yard sale. These are far better than the original playmates ones
I was on the fence about this line (I'm into way too many lines at the moment) but this review has changed my mind about dipping a toe into it. Definitely not all, but the main characters I like... Price point also seems great for what you get.
Mad hatter new archie figure at the channel ROBOT DONT KNOW YOU HAVE TO SEE IT
Does anyone know if target will restock on these once they run out?
there is a couch set, but i'm not sure if it is for those figures or for the smaller ones they also have out.
They're pretty much the same scale as the old Playmates line, which disappointed me since I wanted something a bit bigger to scale better with everything else on my cramped shelf. I may swap out the main Simpsons family with these new ones, but I'm in no rush. And every Bart I've seen has his pupils out of alignment.
Agree✨these are fire🔥 the accessories are super fleeky!💖
they all have a great retro look to them. cant wait to find me a Homer
I just need bart, got the others, family pack and the living room
I got some 😄 !!!!
We need a Steamed Hams playset. Even non-Simpson fans would buy it for the meme.
Damn you're into this too. We're both going to be the same poor when it's all said and done
Batbart is out to walmart
Do kids even watch The Simpsons? Especially this day and age. This seems like the kind of thing Neca would be handling. This makes me think they're expecting adults to buy these too.
Looking at the Sonic line I don't see variants of the characters happening AT ALL unless it's the main character. For Sonic, all they've changed really are the expressions.
Dracula Burns is coming.

Great price point
My target sold out! 😢
Comment for engagement
You should make a video spraying the figs with a matte spray to get the shine off. You’d get a ton of views and make a ton of money.
Always fun to see a nobody tell experienced content creators what they should do…
Cool figures, nice articulation for the price. Would have gladly paid $20 per figure if they made them bigger! A wee bit on the small side
I'm glad for everyone that loves these, but holy shit that's a big empty box for those guys! Looking at other figures that come in a similar size box ( For MUCH more expensive prices of course ) it's packed with accessories, like Earthworm Jim.
That Bart though, so much empty area, I wish they would have made the packaging smaller or blister pack it so it's not so disappointing. Price is on point I guess though
am i just dumb, where can you buy or pre order these?
Big bad toystore
With eyes like that $13 is too much for that bar
I like that they almost resemble the Mattel packaging from the early 90s
Also, i already like them much better than the playmates line. Never liked the playmates versions
Also, I was shocked when I saw the price at $12.99 at Target... Was expecting the usual $19.99/$24.99 price which all figures are now.
Scale is too small for me but they do look good
