Agreed, these Cliff's Notes histories are so good! I'd watch an entire channel of *just* this - succinct but relevant! Totally get that they take more time but... SO GOOD!
Yes. And I already have 5 Wolverines, for 3 Marvel Earth's. However, I can throw the extra 2, 1 in my WW2 Invaders and 1 on an Exiles Team. I actually have 2 Exiles Teams, one on Earth 616, and another on Earth 818. The 616 is more accurate as I used Figures that I had that were actual members. Blink, Mr. Creed good Sabretooth, Spider-Man 2099, a custom Mariko Sunfire, a spare Longshot, and a Morph.
Great review Manny! I really appreciate your honesty on these figures. I mean that's one of the reasons we watch figure reviews right? For your honest opinion. To me it just shows how much you care about the characters.I also really like the comic book backgrounds on the characters. Your one of my favorite figure reviewer. Keep it up.
Thank you! I wouldn’t sugar coat things. Story time is fun but very time consuming. When I can do it and have the time then I will because it’s fun for me to always go back and read these comics on my Marvel Unlimited App.
Death bird, 2 Amazon Imperial Guard 6 pack’s, Pack1)Tempest, Oracle, StarBolt, Smasher,Mentor, Neutron Pack 2) Midget, ,Mystic, Astra, Electron, Hobgoblin, Throw in Glob, Nightside And do a deluxe Titian and Warstar Brood Queen and Broodlings, Shi’ar Troopers if it was me and I was running things we would have them all
Wowww I always love it. When you do story time, the characters. I learned a lot. 🙌👏😉. Awesomeness review video!!! Yesssss Gorgeous Empress and what a badass. Love love the photo shots. Keep it up !
The marbling is different with each figure, from what I've seen. I saw 2 at Toys R Us, bought 1 of them. The one I passed on had marbling on the helmet resembling a bad spider web crack on a car windshield. Mine had no major marbling that I can remember off-hand. Anyway, I bought it as a reward to myself for quitting smoking one month ago.
Definitely gonna make some modifications when I get this pack, gundam marker to Lilandra, some modification to the torso for more crunch, maybe even add a waist swivel, find or make a cloth cape, get some metallic gold paint for her staff and I'm sorry but I hate that Wolverine's head, I'mma be getting a custom one from bigheadstudios and aculpt some popping veins on his shoulders and neck.
I am a fan of X-Men. Cyclops is my all time favorite super-hero of all time. I never saw the appeal of Lilandra. Because of the Lunar landing in 1969, the culture was fascinated with space as you can see Lilandra was created in '76, and the first Star Wars was released in '77. Even though Chris C's space stories came out first in '76, Star Wars overshadowed it immediately. I despise Star Wars and even though Lilandra came first, I get too much Star Wars vibes from her, plus the Wolverine brood figure is quite niche so this pack is a pass for me. But, to defend the figure a little, I recognize the challenge to try and create visual variations when only using silver and black. The only way really in figure form is texture and material. Not all armor must be uniform in shade and material. I actually like the variations that you do not like in the material, as it does give a sense of layering and depth. I do agree that they should have painted the black lines all the way through. And the head sculpt hiding the signature face designs is just criminal. I honestly think Hasbro needs to have an outside quality assurance program that ensures better accuracy with these figures. They produce so many, the design team can't be experts in every character so having an outside source who IS could really help ensure the final products are always 10/10 at least in design accuracy.
This whole wave was a miss for me. Fixit and Patch and Lady M and Patch were good. But Lilandra should have come with Fang Wolverine, Brood Wolverine with the Brood queen, and that Jim Lee Wolverine you mentioned should have come with Sabertooth. Also pins at this point in the game are inexcusable.
Mine has the eye marking more visible. And I agree with another comment, the lips on yours are lower by a little bit. I do have the same exact swirl marking on her head.
Great review as always Manny I have a question for you when it pertains to hanging flying characters what do you use to hang them and where did you get the item from I’m in the process of putting my collection together and I need input from veteran collectors lol
thank you for reading her very interesting file, I was fully prepared to skip out on this set because I had no idea who Lilaandra was, I think you just cost me some money
My opinion I think they were working on a Outback Psylocke and changed it up cause the had her as Lady Mandarin. The Wolverine brood can stand alone it's the Iconic cover pose you want. Patch and Joe Fixit can't do the cover pose there a no go for me as for Lilandra you need the Starjammers or (booth) Imperial Guard. As for LM and BCW there a pass. I'm difference over this cause the hard core fan would do LM and BCW cause you would want ever version of the X-Men good or bad.
Awesome review as always. You make your reviews equally fun and informative and you always have my intention mate. Anyway this was my least favourite 50th anniversary 2-pack. Lilandra is fine but Brood Wolverine is too much of a filler for me to justify spending 50 bucks on this. I'll be waiting for clearance I guess.
5:20 Did they give her sculpted unpainted eyebrows? I believe she's not supposed to have eyebrows. The mouth looks like it was misprinted a little low. The dark line for the middle of the mouth is on her lower lip. Happened to my WandaVision Scarlet Witch. 13:25 Black Knight's energy sword would look good with her too. It looks like the one she had in Uncanny X-Men Issue 166.
Yeah they sculpted it and not paint it which makes me think it was supposed to be all around the eyes connect to those markings on the side. And yes, Black Knight’s sword is another option with the orange saber which was seen in Uncanny X-Men: First Class #7. But the traditional Shi’ar laser swords have the blue or red sabers with the silver hilts. Lilandra is the only character I’ve seen wield an orange saber from the Shi’ar from what I remember.
Do we have an impress the laundro that looks like the animated series I swear to beans? One of my biggest problems with Marvel legends, they're too focused on the comics, the way to focused on the comic books, whatever happened to focusing on the animated series. That's what I want animated series accuracy, not comic book accuracy. Not everybody reads the comics. You know there are people who prefer the animated versions TV accuracy of a lot of these characters. I can't be ahold on this. I wish Marvel legends would focus more on the animated aspect of characters. And I don't mean that stupid self. Shading and quit focusing so much on the comics. I get that the comics were out way before the animated versions. But serious, there are those of us who grew up at the animated series and did not read nor want to read comics. That's all i'm saying.
@@Xmanny87 no, Im serious. I actually prefer the look of lilandra. I'm happy with what I got. I'm not a fan of the lady mandarin figure. Yes it has painted in lines, but I don't think it looks good, and I'm not a fan of the cape. just my personal opinion, doesn't make it fact.......but will always troll about hasbro being the best. I'll shill for that all day. 2024 already to a great start
Thank you for doing the background of the characters in your reviews!
You’re welcome. Can’t do it all the time since it’s very time consuming but when I can, I have fun doing it.
Agreed, these Cliff's Notes histories are so good! I'd watch an entire channel of *just* this - succinct but relevant! Totally get that they take more time but... SO GOOD!
@@Xmanny87Uncanny Xmanny....
Nice! Where’d you get the throne from please?
I am putting a Skrull head on the Wolverine, making him my 6th member of my Evil Skrull Avengers!
That’s a great idea they totally match with the same color too 🎉

Who are your other Skrull avengers?
Original Super Skrull, Skrull Electra, Skrull Bolt, Skrull Spider Woman, and Super Skrull 2!
I also have an Evil Kree Avengers. I basically use every Blue skinned figure I can find.
The Professor X part had me dying! “Calm down Professor G** Dammmn” 🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂

Death bird, 2 Amazon Imperial Guard 6 pack’s, Pack1)Tempest,
Oracle, StarBolt, Smasher,Mentor, Neutron
Pack 2) Midget, ,Mystic, Astra, Electron, Hobgoblin, Throw in Glob, Nightside
And do a deluxe Titian and Warstar
Brood Queen and Broodlings, Shi’ar Troopers if it was me and I was running things we would have them all
lol. I want the Shi’ar Empire Guards so bad. I’d love to army build them.
Yesssss my man Wolverine!! 😍😍 He looks sick !!! Love love horror head scope.
😎👊🏽
Now we need her Deathbird. 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
I need her now. I want more Shi’ar characters.
@@Xmanny87 me to. A Shi'ar soldier and a Brood warrior 2 pack or separate would be great.
Wowww I always love it. When you do story time, the characters. I learned a lot. 🙌👏😉. Awesomeness review video!!!
Yesssss Gorgeous Empress and what a badass. Love love the photo shots. Keep it up !
Thank you so much 🤗 glad you love the photos and the review
Definitely need a new Marvel Legends Brood Queen BAF👑
It’ll be good for those who missed out on the BAF

Hopefully we see more Brood figures .
Also Hasbro should make more Skrull legends .
Cheers to that 🍻
First, i dont want to go some where else :D Second, yes i want a pinless re-do of te brown wolverine! Luv your reviews!
Haha right on!
Yes we need a second part to your X-Men wish list
This whole wave was a miss for me. Fixit and Patch and Lady M and Patch were good. But Lilandra should have come with Fang Wolverine, Brood Wolverine with the Brood queen, and that Jim Lee Wolverine you mentioned should have come with Sabertooth. Also pins at this point in the game are inexcusable.
Or bone claw Wolverine with the big hair with Sabertooth.
Awesome review as usual, Manny. I have the two pack on preorder off BBTS. Tbh i just want Lilandra.
Awesome! Yeah I just wanted Lilandra too but hopefully the Brood will pay off being the next army builder.
Mine has the eye marking more visible. And I agree with another comment, the lips on yours are lower by a little bit. I do have the same exact swirl marking on her head.
I didn’t notice the lips so now I’ll have to take another look at it
Waiting for the day that Hasbro says screw it and goes with chrome I think they would absolutely kill it
Chrome would’ve made this figure elite.
Great review as always Manny I have a question for you when it pertains to hanging flying characters what do you use to hang them and where did you get the item from I’m in the process of putting my collection together and I need input from veteran collectors lol
I just use whatever twisty ties from previous figures I bought over the years. I hoarded them for that reason. A lot of Toybiz Legends had those.
Okay thanks any tips on getting them to stand up properly
thank you for reading her very interesting file, I was fully prepared to skip out on this set because I had no idea who Lilaandra was, I think you just cost me some money
Thank you so much and I love your channel
My pleasure.

Thank you so much! Glad you are entertained by my videos. That’s all I want to do. I just want to entertain people.
Definitely an Amazon Prime Day purchase😂
lol hey, nothing wrong with getting those deals.
Death bird and the Brood Queen would be nice!
I’d like more Shi’ar characters so if she comes with someone like Eric The Redd then that’ll be better.
La Faunda gots the professor acting up lol
Old Lilandra head looks sooooo much better . Would never get the new one
I still think this one is better if the black eye markings around her face were prominently visible and not hidden.
5:20 Did they give her sculpted unpainted eyebrows? I believe she's not supposed to have eyebrows. The mouth looks like it was misprinted a little low. The dark line for the middle of the mouth is on her lower lip. Happened to my WandaVision Scarlet Witch. 13:25 Black Knight's energy sword would look good with her too.

The lilandra figure looks better than the lady mandarin figure

This set is a flop for me personally so I’m gonna pass, another great review bro!
Thanks for watching and glad you like it.
You have some bad luck. Most other reviews for Lilandra she has the face markings. Your DD was missing paint apps, now this😢
Yeah man. I’m cursed with Legends. Lol
That throne is awesome 👌
I love it.
