Which series do YOU like better? 👀
series 2. your channel is awesome!
Series one has too many Captain America shield
I have wanted a moonknight since i watched the show so im gonna have to go with series 2 tho series 1 was bonkers when it came out
Disney 100 CMF. The one that has Ernesto. The one that is better than the Disney CMF with Anna
SERIES TWO MARVEL STUDIOS MINIFIGURES
Moon knight and white vision are so similar we used to use white vision as a moon knight custom 😅
Knight*
@@MagentaPro111”Knight 👆🤓”
@@ethanmanus3384they’re just trying to help
Yep! And used the white hood from Ghost Gwen
@@stankystankyrat9575actually I think you mean ghost spider 🤓👆
The thing I didn't like about series 1 was the amount of Captain America themed figures
Yes. Great series but 3 of them had the captain america shield piece.... and most of the figures were red or blue themed. series 2 much more variety
@@DavidHRolex4 bc falcon, Bucky, Peggy, and zombie cap
@@elisitbon4672 4 Shields but only 3 different shields
The 11th figures being Tchalla and Storm is definitely a reference to their marriage in the comics 💯
I'm not letting you forget that you thought the Anna minifig was better than Ernesto from your Disney CMF comparison
One of the reasons you need to take his comparison opinions with a grain of salt
@@BruceWayne-kq4urI mean they’re just his opinions. He isn’t trying to pass them off as fact
I agree with most of them but the Bucky in my opinion was better. You can use his head and hair for so many customs it’s crazy! But I am getting nostalgia from the old figs!
Agreed
Series 2 mini figs have so much detail omg
I think in terms of the quality of the figures the series are on par with one another but I think that series 1 has a slightly superior selection of characters
Series 1 had a better distribution of shows, but the main problem was we already had a ton of variants of most of the characters. If we had gotten a character exclusive to their shows like Mobius, Karli and Renslayer series 1 would have been a bit more diverse. When series 2 was announced, I assumed we would get Hawkeye, Moonknight, Ms Marvel, She Hulk and maybe Werewolf By Night and Secret Invasion. The 12 figure limit definitely demonstrates the limitations. Wondering if the missed shows will get something one day
I mean Loki is getting a second season so maybe some more characters from that show will pop up next time.
How is there not Daredevil???
I honestly think both series are on equal footing when it comes to quality and character choice. I just think that series 2 is slightly handicapped by having a lot of the shows not be released yet.
Also its funny that tchalla and storm were paired up since in the comics they get married lol
The new series' figures are slightly obscure but flashy and bright compared to the previous one
An elimination bracket would be an excellent tie breaker and a pretty entertaining video, IMO.
Spiderman and Goliath are both what if characters too just to add to your conspiracy 😂
Man, i don't know what it is your just so happy and wholesome like, its unreal how happy you are.
FYI the head you had for T’Challa is actually not from the cmf but from the mech set. Just something I noticed
Daryl head from the office
The new one>>>
I like the old one just cause of the loki figs
I think they are both equally great
Seeing both series side by side is so beautiful
Pros of CMF 1:
- More consistency between the on-air series and the figure election.
- Be the first CMF series of Marvel to be made after 9 years on the market.
- More unique accessories for the characters (Throg and Sam's wings for example).
- Specially made for MCU fans.
Cons of CMF 1:
- No new characters, almost everyone are a new version of already existing faces.
- Not so astonishing or brilliant designs in some characters (Monica, Loki, Sylvie, T'Challa Star-Lord and Bucky).
Pros of CMF 2:
- Almost every character are new, debuting 7 new faces for our collections.
- The return of the X-Men.
- The two weakest characters of the roaster (Echo and Goliath) are so detail in comparison with the other characters from the last wave (adding Gamora, who look better than the previous named from series one).
- Made for both comic book and MCU fans.
Cons of CMF 2:
- Inconsistency between the characters and the on-air series.
- Probably the fact that some characters hadn't been spotted or irrelevant, not many would care about them.
Con for both:
- Lacking of villains.
agatha is a villain
@@excelibous one in a series were 10 of them are heroes...
@@alejandroguerra875811*
They look good together!
Great comparison video Johnathan, I prefer series 2 to series 1. The results were 7-5 to series 2! My favourite CMF from the first series is Falcon, the second series it’s Moon Knight.
I do love that you can make beast stand upside down with the clear pieces
Echo was better in my opinion.. the unique leg and great printing overall
I always thought that the sinestro hair looked better for a Hugh Jackman wolverine than the original joker hair as it looks a bit goofy, but I’m not sure if it’s better for a comic style wolverine
Guys, how do you avoid clip pieces from cracking cuz that's what happened to my Sam Wilson minifig
The first series just has more recognizable characters than the newest one
In what world 😂💀
@@oninja1205Wanda, Falcon, Bucky, Loki, Gamora, Vision and Spider-Man
Does series 2 feel a little more random then the other series
I just hope Daredevil is included in the next one. He's in She-Hulk and Echo as well as in Spider-Man No Way Home (although, out of costume), but he's not included in the cmf series. I'd also like Kingpin since he appears in Hawkeye and in Echo too.
The face for Star Lord T'challa is actually not the official face, it's actually a custom printed face not the official lego made face.
What do you mean? It's the one that came with the figure
@@Drewthemagnificent No look again They both look really similar but you can still see some subtle differences beetween the 2 heads
It’s actually the mech T’Challa head.
ohhhh@@azaanimations319
I think series 2 is better mostly cause they are new and have new cool parts and minfigures. But that’s my opinion
I want all 3 xmen figs
Same bro! They look sick!
FR am in 2 weeks I’m going to lego land
I wish I could’ve gotten series 1 there’s so many of my favorite characters there that I still want to this day
We deserved mobius we NEED him and give us B1-15 too could make some custom time keepers with her parts god it would be so cool
Hopefully they'll be part of the next one with a season 2 coming out!
Isn’t that original hairpiece they used for Wolvie no longer in production? I think the one they used for him is fine
The tchalla head you used is from the mech not the cmf idk how i noticed that
I think series 2 is the superior series. Generally the characters are more detailed than the first series, and while the first series may have some more iconic characters, it didn’t have a character like Monica. She felt like a waste of a slot because her outfit was very plain looking and a better representation of her was going to be in a future set, whereas Characters like Mobius and John Walker were completely passed up. Echo may not be desirable because of the character’s lack of impact, but her detail and leg mold is actually stellar.
Idt we needed a John Walker since we had so many Cap-style figures already but a Mobius would have been amazing (I caved and got a knockoff of him haha)
beast should have won but i like series 1 more
tchala had the mech head by the way and can you update the thor and avenger shhow cases with the new head and hair from series 2 please
Both are pretty neat sets but series 2 is definitely my favourite
I think you’ve got the wrong head on T’Chala Star Lord cause I remember bro having a raised eyebrow, while that face looks more like the face from the black panther mech
I believe the reason they used that hair for Wolverine is because the vampire hair was discontinued. cant confirm though
The charm that's missing from series 2 is that it comes in boxes!
So I gotta admit in 2021 i was very new to collecting lego I didn't know there was a CMF series so it annoys me but i never got any of the original CMF ones but i've started collecting series 2
Why call it Red wing it's not red on it?
I finally got series 2.. so now I can do my rounds of reviews.
Beast is by far my favorite one out of these
ah yes, my favorite bug, the goliath.
I still really want to complete series one, ive learned and will definetly get a full box of series 2
Isnt that the wrong t’challa head? I think that the head you used is from the mech that released last year but I might be wrong either way great vid 😆😄
Haha yeah I actually think it’s the Darryl head from the office
What's also ironic is that I like 7 figures from Series 1 and whatchya know, 7 figures from series 2
I agree with most but the hair printing and leg mould means imo echo is better
It’s funny how star lord tachalla and storm are in the same spot because in the comics storm rescues tachalla when he is a boy and eventually marries him
Something weird I noticed seeing the Sylvie and Kate Bishop ones next to each other was that each of their facial expressions was more suited to the opposite character.
My fav figures from series 1&2
1:Zombie Cap
2:Wolverine
9:28 and these two figures both have two different legs
I was excited for series 1 because I just wanted marvel figs but series 2 has figures I have really wanted. I already paid 30 dollars for moon Knight and Mr Knight. I also love the x men and werewolf by night
I think a huge part of what makes series one look better at a glance is the detail and color variety. There are 3 almost entirely white figures in series 2 and a fourth that's primarily white. Beast, Agatha, and Werewolf by Night are all amazing figures, but each of them has one primary color that dominates its design. Almost every figure in series 1 has 2-3 very noticeable colors, and details that you don't need to look closely to see. Series 1 also includes characters from 4 shows whereas 2 has characters from 7 (8 if you consider that Echo's design is almost certainly based on her own show). The variety makes it feel a little less cohesive, even though the overall quality is more or less the same.
Also, I think series 1 has a few more top tier figures. IMO Wanda, Sam, Loki, Zombie Steve, and T'Challa are some of the best marvel figures we've ever had hands down. Whereas in series 2 I'd really only consider Moon Knight and She-Hulk to be top tier (and even She-Hulk is lacking in the accessories department). Both series are so amazing, though. Gonna keep on buying these so that Lego knows there's demand for them.
Series one should get a bonus point for coming in bags rather than boxes
On the tchala star lord you put the head from the black panter mech on there
I like series 2 better than series 1, but I'm still sad I missed out on that zombie cap and zombie survivor spider man
Gonna be honest, I saw all sorts of rumors for a marvel phase 4 minifigure series several years ago, but I never realized until a few days ago that this first series actually released. I thought the marvel series that we got recently was the first one and the one all the rumors were talking about several years ago
We should've gotten Final swing spider man instead of some random blue thing
I just want to point out, it takes two extra sylables to say "double u" than just say "win".
It's funny, you talk about the "Zombie Cap vs Echo" comparison as a clear win for Zombie Cap and not feeling a connection to Echo, I feel the exact opposite - I thought Echo was cool in Hawkeye and the zombie What If was the weakest of the series, so while I think the Zombie Cap minifig has a lot of cool details, I would have judged this matchup the other direction.
Not to mention, as others have brought up, there's already 3 other characters who are very closely related to Captain America and come complete with shield, did we really need the one zombie in the minifig pack to be Cap as well?
Since there were so many Cap shield figures in set 1 already I would have picked a different what if character for that series.
Series 1 has a much better selection of really awesome characters. Almost all of them are must haves. Even though Werewolf by night is mcu it feels so removed from everything else and I don't believe anyone was asking for an Echo show. The X Men figs are great but don't really feel like they belong here. Maybe Goliath will seem cooler after we see season 2 but for now he's not terribly exciting. Also I feel like Hawkeyes hair could have been better. The must haves for me are She Hulk, Moon Knight, Kate and Wolverine.
Echo was also in Hawkeye so she'd probs be there regardless.
Something that makes me so annoyed is that almost every box has a hawkeye where i live
WEREWOLF BY NIGHT ONLY APEARED IN BLACK AND WHITE
I only dont like the hawkeye because i got four in a row after one purchase
Kind of irrelevant but on your customs maybe you u could use ant man's helmet for firefly if you haven't already
You should do a saber tooth custom with the ware wolf by night head and hair
If you would have told me ten years ago as a lego marvel obsessed kid that one day we would get two lego marvel cmfs based on tv shows with wolverine and a zombie captain America, my mind would be blown
Agreed with every choice but one. Not a chance captain Carter beats this Beast minifigure. I wouldn’t even call it remotely close. But this is all subjective. Nice video - was a lot of fun!
We need a hawkeye ronin version
I still use the Peter head on my Spider-Man figs
They're about the same for me. The X-Men make series 2 better overall. Fave from each would be TVA Loki and Moonknight
Beast win
CMF 2 has better character selection in my opinion. I’m a bit biased because I wasn’t a big fan of What-If?, and majority of the CMF 1 minifigures came from that show.
To be honest I prefer the first series over the second one cause one they looked more realistic and detailed 2 they were a bit more colorful 3 great accessories as well and 4 they are more memorable and 5 the packs made it easier to find the ones i wanted The only downside was that they had 4 Captain America shields series 2 is good but the only ones i did like were moon knight, Mr knight, Wolverine, beast and storm every one else were mid at best
Series 2 wins for me because of the classic X-men figs and moon knight
Series 2 we had almost opposite results though
The first series is better in my opinion
Star lord had the wrong head
Series one has too many Captain America’s
I think tchalla Star lord has the wrong head. That’s the head from the mech
I’m a series 2 fan
1. Wanda
2. Moon Knight
3. Mr Knight
4. Bucky
5. Sam Wilson
6. Hawkeye
7. Kate Bishop
8. Spider man
9. Zombie cap
10. Beast
11. Tchalla star Lord
12. Wolverine
how is the werewolf better than bucky? there's about a million other figures that look like that especially in the collectible series, bucky is way more of an iconic character and like you even mentioned he is useful in many customs.
Just realized how similar they are, S1 got us the most detailed spiderman, while S2 got us most detailed wolverine. S1 got us black star lord, s2 got us black ant man. I personally prefer S2 just coz im missing a hawkeye and i loved both hawkeye and Kate, and the other characters just fill out my collection more. Anyone else notice how wolverines leg printing shifted to the right has has yellow expose on his inner thigh?
Series 2
Loki is my favourite
Then again echo and zombie cap have nothing to do with each other...... Unless shes a main character in the new marvel zombie show coming out huh makes you wonder doesnt it
Series 1 was all together better but a couple figures from series 2 were better than a few from series 1
Series 2 is better
Just wanted to let u know that the tchala head is the wrong one that’s the one from the mech 😂
Who cares
@@Drewthemagnificent It is a comparison so it does take away from what you actually got
@@Drewthemagnificenthe was showing what you got with the figure so it matters what head he shows
Both
I’m annoyed that they mixed in the x men with mcu characters, they should have just picked 3 more mcu characters
Spider man and moonkight
Gamora monica and echo were all the stronger minifigs, the only one that almost could be beat was echo with zombie cap, gamora had way better printing than wolverine, mr knight is so bland monica had a new hairpiece and more printing
I don’t have either of them😂😢
Series 1
Honestly the only reason I think series 1 wins for me because the characters are more iconic. Series 1 has Wanda, Captain America, Bucky, Loki, A spiderman figure and a really good T'challa. Meanwhile series 2 only has hawkeye and wolverine (you could count Moonknight/Kate, but they aren't as big names compared to the series 1 characters)
And beast and storm.
Don’t leave out Beast and Storm. The X-Men are hugely iconic, probably moreso than any other characters in both CMFs aside from Spider-Man. Also Star-Lord T’Challa is not an iconic character.
