I appreciate the thorough and honest review. It's criminal that the Legends team chose to not articulate at least the legs on Lockjaw. They literally just did it with Zabu. There's no excuse from them that I would buy that can excuse this bad decision. If the Classified team can fully articulate a warthog, I believe the Legends team could have articulated a giant bulldog. Especially at this price point and the limited accessories. The lack of articulation is the reason I didn't pre-order this set, which would've been the jumping on point for a new team for me, which affects future sales. If it were to drop to 50% off, I would consider it. But the lack of articulation is just such a horrible decision.
Hasbro has a new BlackBolt and Medusa 2 pack coming. BlackBolt maybe using the Angel body mold with butterfly joint only in the back with 3 sets of different wings Medusa looks like she's using the new Phoenix body mold with 2 changeable hair piece's. These are from prototype photos that I seen.
It’d be cool if they’d integrate bendy wires into the hair somehow. And black bolt should have fabric wings like the old 2009 one. That’d eliminate the need for any sets of plastic ones
Where can I find the photos?
You wanna share with the class? 😅 I’m not really into leaking images publicly but if you DM me on Insta I would like to see 👀
@@DanWhoReviews I can't because of the firm I work with. Let see what Hasbro has at NYCC I'll be there.
@@turnthepage8980 The photos are from someone that I work with I can't leak the photo. I'll be at NYCC they might show it...
Lockjaw is a very adorable dog with a cool power set like Black Bolt and Crystal does look beautiful while having some dope power effects that she can use like the Royal family, I don't have this two pack but fantastic review Dan.
Hopefully it comes down in price eventually then I'll pull the pin on this 2 pack
Great review - surprised at the lack of articulation on Lockjaw considering that they actually make excellent articulated animal figures.
Yes sir, we defiantly need a new, bigger improved Black Bolt with Gorgon, Triton, Maximus the Mad and a new Medusa! Great review!
As much as I want this it is NOT worth $70. A figure with a bike or sky-cycle is $50.
Not sure if you knew this but deluxe figures sell for $38.99 separately at retail nowadays
@@genericyoutubechannel3790 you think that Crystal is worth $31
@@genericyoutubechannel3790 If you’re suggesting Lockjaw is a deluxe, that would make Crystal $31. So, even in that scenario it’s still overpriced. Unless you mean Lockjaw should cost more than a deluxe…
@@printrabbit8117Deluxes cost $60 nowadays. Even exclusive non-deluxes have reached that price. Lockjaw is only 45 and comes with a change of faces, legs, and powers. He's not bad.
@@printrabbit8117 I'm saying that Lockjaw is a deluxe. Obviously I don't have him in hand, but in the promo images, he looked to be very large, in terms of plastic contents and accessories. I do agree that the pack is maybe $5 too expensive, but that's just based on current prices of standard and deluxe figures.
New Medusa with wired hair.
im keeping my mezco and selling the hasbro version
I wish I liked the digital print tech face painting as much as everyone else does because it never looks good to me. It makes the figures look old it makes them look fuzzy it makes them look weird and as much as the factory hand painted face paints back in the day would be sloppy sometimes, they at least didn’t look blurry lol
I think it’s because I zoom in to much, the Reality is nobody is looking at there collection through a magnifying glass everyday. I genuinely think on display at a normal viewing distance they are much nicer then the factory paint can ever achieve at the volume legends are produced. I definitely understand everyone had a preference however 🙏🏻 thanks for the comment
I see your point. I mostly like them, but sometimes they turn out a bit too realistic. Some even remind me of people I know, which is a bit unsettling LOL The uncanny valley, you know. And as for the blurry part, I guess it's what DanW says. For me it's like the benday dots from the comics used back in the day. But I'm nearsighted anyway, so... 😅
I do kind of want it for Lockjaw cause you can’t go wrong with a giant doggo but agh the inhumans are such z tier marvel characters imo just can’t imagine paying anything for them.
My only issue (scuplt wise and beside the price) with Marvel legends Lockjaw is how the forelegs are sticking too much on the side. I would custom that if I find a pack on sale.
Agreed. It makes it look like a cheap toy.
I was going to say both of these were first time figures, not even made in the heyday of **EVERYONE GETS A 5” FIGURE** ToyBiz days, but then you brought out Mezco Lockjaw.
Tbh, Mezco got the coloring closer to how I think of LJ, light tan/black mouth, but he needs the ML tuning fork. Neither are perfect, but that’s why Thingiverse can have Bulldog .stl’s….
A LOT of the Hellcat figures were sacrificed to make this Crystal. I never got around to mine, tho…yet?
I just snagged that Sue figure for $7, and was trying to list which head swaps she would be doing. Crystal is top of that list. Too short for Jen/Shulkie. Maybe repaint her hair and she’s Sharon Ventura? I think my spare Medusa head went to a custom Meggan?
At least her new effect pieces look nice. Did you try flipping around the flat part onto her upturned open palms?
And are the black -8- bands on her hair different? It looks like the “flat” hair makes an 8, while the “flying” hair has a bar between the circles? 🧐
I cannot wait! I have been petitioning Marvel Select to make a Lockjaw so long. I skipped Mezco. I cannot wait! Crystal looks good. Lockjaw is glorious! Love it! I will be painting a mustache on my copy. He has been portrayed more as a pet or companion lately. He’s a founding member of Pet Avengers. Hasbro make Throg. Just do it! Pack him in a two pack with Enchantress and Executioner. Pack him in with a new Loki. Pack him in with a new Thor. Make Throg! Then we’ll just need updated Red Wing and Niels. I want a complete Pete Avengers team… yeah I guess more Inhumans like Gorgon and Triton and updated BB and Medusa. But really the Pet Avengers…
Bought them and can't wait for them to come. Crystal looks great.
It's hard to believe.. but i remember that Lockjaw was revealed to have been a HUMAN before being exposed to the TERRIGEN MISTS!
Anyways great video brother.. looking forward to more of your Marvel Legends reviews 👑
It's been retconned that was a joke that Gorgon(?) was playing on Ben Grimm.
Yeah, that was revealed to be a prank Johnny had a hand in, with a radio on Lockjaw’s collar to make Ben think LJ was once human.
We really do need a new Medusa and Blackbolt. I agree. They're both just lousy figures now. I'd prefer a more classic style Medusa and let's be honest...has there ever been a character that deserves a second head more than her? You've got to do a regular hair falling behind her head and, naturally, an "attacking" hair head. Blackbolt's wings permanently stick out behind his head are so irritating too.
You’re so right. Praying this release is a start of a whole new Inhumans line. 🙏🏻
We need a blackbolt with retracted and extended arm wings like spiderwoman.
A Blacbolt update on the Vulcan body would be cool, and Medusa (maybe on one of the newer female body moulds) plus Kernak and Gorgon and a few others
This set looks great! Definitely down for Triton and Gorgon, but a 4 pack with Black Bolt and Medusa works too.
I can get a real dog at the pound for less than that .
I tried to get the Mezco one, but I was too late to get it at MSRP...and I'm not paying more. That Blackbolt is awesome though, and I wished I had both... The Mezco is obviously better, but it's not like the Legends is bad, in fact it's quite good, but you can see the advantage in the price difference.
Dan, you are my HERO for comparing this new Lockjaw to the Mezco Lockjaw! I think the Mezco looks better in a vacuum, but I'm sticking with the Marvel Legends because of the multiple expressions and the aesthetic will also fit in better with my big Marvel Legends collection
Lockjaw is the only inhuman I need
Great review. I’m still on the fence about the price tag on this one. I don’t know that Lockjaw is a $45 USD figure. I do really like this set though. I hope we get a redo of Medusa and Blackbolt. Those two are really showing their ages.
These look great, the wind swept head would look good on a flight stand. Great review, loving the comparisons and lineups pal 🙌
Ohhh man I love the inhumans.💯😎
I'm excited for this set. It is a little more than I thought it should be but, I had a gift card so free for me.
I was thinking that if people have the Mezco Lockjaw you could still use that as Lockjaw and use the one that comes with Crystal as Puppy and put it with Franklin it can be close enough. That way you can use them all. Just a thought lol.
The relaxed hair head sculpt looks cross eyed to me.
I don't see how articulated front legs would change the figure. He can stand, sit, and stretch out his legs because they articulate at the shoulder and paws. I don't see how bending his legs is a deal breaker.
For extra fun, snap on the left standing leg and the right sitting leg. Makes for a good "watering the fire hydrant" look. :D
“Paw Pivot” 👌
Ben waiting for Crystal for quite a while! Glad to face her in the line!
It's just me or Crystal heads looks like Taylor Swift in her Eras Tour look????? 😮😮 even the semi-open mouth expression is spot on and the long weavy hair, is kinda similar
Am i the only one who thinks that???
Now we need a rocky Ms. Marvel and a spiky Ben Grimm, to complete the late 80s team.
I honestly want Maximus! Even if the Black Bold and Medusa are old, i'm not gonna buy new ones with new body mold. And for other characters, i hope to get a baron mordo comics version and a classis Namorita.
I think this easily could have worked as a BAF with a inhuman wave
I really don't understand why they couldnt give Lockjaw articulations when the damn mini GIJoe animals get it!
2025 is the 60th anniversary of the Inhumans. It would be nice if Hasbro completed the Royal Family with Triton, Gorgon and updates to Black Bolt and Medusa. Maximus isn’t as crucial as the others for team completion, but would be an extra bonus.
Simple. Adorable ❤
I'm not planning on having the whole Inhuman Family, but Crystal and Medusa are more closely related to the FF, so they make sense in my display. The head swap with Sue was convincing. And Lockjaw looks as good as the Mezco one IMO, maybe cuter LOL
I want it but it's definitely not worth $70 I'm definitely waiting on a sale
Her and Ronan made a good couple
I like lockjaw and seems like the legends team is listening to us fans on who we want.
Crystal was with Sentry, too.
5:51 You're right, they are not boots.... they are crocs! 😁👍
Mezco stays on top for me.
Thank you mate for another stellar review! Can’t wait to get this set! I wonder if Lockjaw and Teddy hang out when you’re not home 🤔🤔🤔
I’m gonna keep both Valerie and Franklin had a lockjaw puppy so I’m gonna keep both now come Hasbro let’s get Gorgon ,Triton ,and Maximus are needed and I think the Mezco one is the better looking dog the ML needs a dose of dull coat.
Not a fling, but a flame 🔥 😅😅
You swapped Crystal's head onto the wrong Sue Storm body. Franklin Richards was only born in the late 60s, so the more appropriate costume would be the Walgreen's one.
@@genericyoutubechannel3790 mate, I destroy my nice display every single time I come to a comparison segment, your have to make do with that one as that’s what was available at the time 😅😂
I need this figure
Is Lockjaw a dog with cool powers, or a dude with horrific powers?
Doggie with cool powers 🐶
I would’ve got this if lockjaw was any better, but wow 😬 nah I’m good…
I have the mezco lockjaw, this is a hard decision to make cause i can understand the argument both ways. I need the crystal,but will i pay that price!!!!!🤔🤔🤔🤔
Random question, is the black in her hair actually her hair, or does she have some kind of headpiece?
It’s her hair 💁🏼♀️
Why did they make Lockjaw a statue really no articulation that would have made Lockjaw a Showstopper that was a bad decision them bogus chicken wing sculpts of back legs Hasbro ruined Lockjaw every body been waiting on him for years that Christle figure is ok but WoW they really messed up Lockjaw but I still pre-ordered them😢
70 bucks with minimal articulation?! In 2024 smh
The more I see of Lockjaw, the more I'm convinced that I would have vastly preferred articulated legs. I still think it's a huge miss.
hey Dan,how's it going I was wondering if you could get Lockjaw into a peeing on a fire hydrant pose 😆.
Lockjaw not being articulated like Zabu is a huge wasted opportunity... It's a waste of money and mold... EVERYTHING! That's why I didn't buy it!!! :/
Xemnu? You sure about that Dan?
Xemu?
@@DanWhoReviews I think you meant to say Zabu when you were comparing the articulation with Lockjaw. Just giving ya 💩
@@rp2655 ohh I was well confused, no idea I said that 😅 well at least you know what I meant lol my bad 💩
@@DanWhoReviews keep on doing what you do! Love watching your reviews and livestreams!
Isn't Karnak too tall? Like much too tall?
Karnak isn’t great to be honest, would take an upgrade already but at least we have the character for display I suppose. Would take those missing members before upgrading 🙏🏻
Dan we need a classic blue Apocalypse right?!
Really not a fan of either head sculpt. Didn't do Crystal justice. Very plain.
Better female updated bucks, and yet Hasbro settled on using the old Shriek body. Also the Lockjaw accessory looks very cheap, it almost looks like an almost complete reuse from the previously released Lockjaw from the 3 3/4 exclusive pack. Definitely not worth the almost $80 price. Thanks for the great review, as usual!
As the Inhumans are - due to an awful show, a failed takeover of the X-Men-franchise and the fact that they weren't a good idea in the first place (Kirby-stuff ... like Eternals ... nuff said) as dead as a dodo, all slightly popular inhumans are rebranded mutants (Ms. Marvel) and even the Karnak figure is still sitting on the pegs (and is looking moronic BTW), it's not Medusa/Black Bolt/Maximus we need to complete a team, we need Hairball, the Mighty Throg and an updated Redwing (the last was from ToyBiz) to complete the far more popular Pet Avengers.

How does danwho get everything first the most annoying voice in the community and he gets everything first
You know you don't have to listen right? Thanks for your community spirit we could have been great friends. At least you don't have to live with my voice? I unfortunately have to deal with it daily, so annoying!
@@DanWhoReviews ur voice isn't annoying to anyone else who's subscribed dw bro fire vid btw
Easy pass for me, I don’t have an affinity for inhumans whatsoever but you know I still watched the review from start to finish and even dropped a like and comment to support. I’m commenting right now!
Came back to say Lockjaw with no snoot looks terrifying
