That intro was better than most televisions shows now days
I hope they make that intro into a new episode of the upcoming X-Men '97 series. 😂 I have the old Blob BAF & never liked it, so I'm glad there's an updated model. Thankfully this new fig seems to have better articulation & is a more accurate design of the character. Blod's body is supposed to be "blobby" than "blubbery". So I'm glad they gave the new fig a smoother design & didn't include all the extra fat folds, that the older fig had.
I absolutely 100% agree with all of that.
The neutral head sculpt I got Chris Farley vibes when he was showing off the tilt
I’ve never seen the real close-up of that head sculpt before, it is so beautifully ugly. I love it.
Neutral face looks like John Candy.
I'm really looking forward to owning this soon.
Man. Brown costume mafex wolverine looks gooooood. Just wish he had the classic belt buckle..
This is so awesome, if all the figures were this good, I wouldn't mind prices or lack of accessories. I love that they got this so right, but it just makes it even more frustrating don't get things like Ch'od's three fingered hand or painting his fins, lips, and claws. I really love the nostalgia focus of Legends, that's how you keep people like me coming back when I want to quit and save myself some money but when you give me that girthy Blob action... figure then I can't quit on you now.
I love the skits Robo does in these vids, idk they feel like toy commercials we had as kids and it just has a fun factor to them. Great review as always dude
Well done intro! Also I am one of those who got nervous seeing you cut towards yourself and appreciate the change.
It's nice to see hasbro actually putting effort into their figures
Robo your toy story time is straight up fire, if you want to do more I will watch
He looks great and props for a top notch review Robo. It’s funny how a few people are saying he’s too small when Blob was either this size or smaller for 30 years. He was also almost never drawn with excessive wrinkles like the BAF. I’m pretty sure the naysayers haven’t read many comics with Blob.
This is the Blob for me. Some people say the old one is better, but it's just too gross for me. It doesn't look like the Blob, it looks like a character *based on* the Blob, like if Todd McFarlane made a Blob for the Spawn comics. Comics Blob *is* usually just drawn as a big round guy. I don't need all the other stuff that old figure has.
The Brotherhood in my head is kind of a mish mash. It's your one, but also with Sabretooth and Magneto. Hasbro really missed the chance to avoid Moira pegwarming by doing a foresight-themed 2-pack with her and Destiny, especially given what the recent comics did with those two. Now I just hope she comes in a 2-pack with a new Mystique. Just doesn't seem like a character that'd do well in a regular wave.
Agreed, Destiny isn't the most exciting of figure designs, and she's not the most action oriented of the team. Maybe a candidate for a 5 pack? And also agreed, this Blob captures the comics better. Like I said, I don't have a problem with the old Blob, but there's also a reason it's been in a tub for years instead of on the shelf...
Use the BAF for your Ultimate X-Men shelf? That guy was drawn pretty disgusting, like if Fat Bastard had given up on life.
This is my first and he's the most fun of any of the new stuff I picked up over the last few months. Great review as always
Blob is the big (hah) thing missing from Brotherhood display. I might need to reach out to our neighbors to the North, too...
You can also add Spiral and Spider Woman (Julia Carpenter) to the team since they were in an earlier incarnation. If you really want to be a completionist, we'd also need Crimson Commando, Stonewall, and Super Sabre along with Destiny to complete the full crew.
Oh yeah, I'm definitely in for Crimson Commando, Stonewall, and Super Sabre, they add some flair.
"Freedom Force" was commishioned by Valerie Cooper (United States NSA advisor) after the evil mutants were pardoned of their crimes. They worked alongside the Avengers as one of their first missions. Not sure why people refer to them as the brotherhood...
I think we need a foosh blob custom asap
Love this review to bits! You can feel the genuine excitement. Best one yet, Robo! Cheers!
I like the design of this Blob. It will fit perfect with my Konami X-Men Arcade display.
Oh, beautiful intro! It’s really good with cityscape background and optics effect!
Bro I want this figure so bad but I’m run go out of space so quickly. Not that that’s stopped me before tho 😂
Haha, yeah, and this takes double the space in half the time!
Appreciate the review man, I think this Blob figure will be in many top ten lists for 2023
Blob .... Now we need Destiny , Quicksilver in green , Rogue in short hair in a light green with a hood , and Id like a Unus the Untouchable for that classic lineup .
We got that Mastermind but we need a body with a ratty suit .
Great intro...👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👌🏼
I like the bulk of the old blob, but this one looks pretty cool still. It just really sucks that he cost so much. I wanted to get a couple to customize into MOTUC figures. Oh well... Maybe someday.
That intro was a blast!!
Man, that Blob looks bigggg!. Nice intro!
Mine is coming tomorrow from Amazon and I can’t wait.
That intro was killer!
The BAF Blob always disgusted me, and it's pretty disturbing to look at. This new one is beyond amazing, love the size, the texture and the articulations, they nailed it! Awesome review as always, big fan of your channel! Also that stop motion in the intro is so good!!!
I agree, I wouldn't feel comfortable displaying the old one on a shelf because of how gross he is. The new one is still suitably massive but he doesn't make me shiver in disgust any time I look at him
@@j0hn00 agreed!
I do prefer the new one but I love that about the baf
The whole release date & msrp is a nice detail for future reference thanks!
Great review!
Super excited to get this figure….”Nothing moves the Blob!” Thanks for the review Robo.
Dude honestly, the editing has taken a giant leap forward, not that it was poor before but it’s still nice. Cheers!
Thanks, I've been having fun learning new tricks in the software and trying out new things. Keeps it fresh on both ends of process.
extra love for that opening!
That intro was fire.
Got my blob and it's sooo amazing! ❤❤❤
That freckling is insane!
CMD Store? Damn. I got mine from BBTS a month ago. Fun figure. Loved the intro vid!
In the introduction animation I thought Jean Grey was gonna say “thinner…” hahah like the Stephen King TV movie adaptation… classic
That's a lot more articulation than i expected... Especially the swivel on the torso! And able to balance on one foot in a running pose? Noice.
I wish Glenn was still around. He would have been so glad that Hasbro is doing the X-men justice in figure form
I love watching the childhood joy X-men figures bring out in Robo
I love your intros lool!!!
Great cold open!!!!!!!
I've seen some complaints about his bulk being rather small but I think they were going for an early 80s Blob. The conception of what it means to be "large" has considerably changed since then. Especially for super villains.
Nice intro dude…………noice!!!
Looks awesome
Maybe not as bulky as some images of him but a big improvement over the old baf. The freckles are a nice touch as are the extra hand and head options.
The intro was cool Robo.👍
AWESOME REVIEW! LOVE the content Fwoosh!
Can't wait for the big boy to ship from Pulse!
Cool Blob.😎
Did Robo just do the X-Men TAS theme?! 😯
Shhhhhhh......
This will go perfect in a Pryde of the X-Men/Arcade display.
"NOTHING MOVES THE BLOB."
Amazing.
This Blob looks great, holy crap, AND he’s that posable? Take my money.
Perhaps one day in a short we will get to see the X-Men shelf?
I know it's a ton of work, but I'd love to watch more Robo Robot Chicken Figure stories
They take up a chunk of time but I love doing them.
@@TheFwoosh ur a great writer. Funny dialog and plots.
Nothing moves the Blob....off the shelf except a clearance sale.
Destiny would be great. Maybe in a three pack with Mystique and a retro-look Rogue?
You gotten your Crocker yet? Got mine from BBTS and I'm digging it, curious to hear your thoughts on him at some point
With everything hitting I had to cancel but hope to grab it at some point.
How does it scale with mcfarlane figs tho. This might be a good base for a Billy Kincaid from SPAWN. With some sculpting
I think we an all relate to that feeling of spending a little extra on a figure that we're really excited about, thankfully most of the time I feel it pays off.
This figure looks great and Blob is absolutely a classic iconic X-Men villain, but I'm not fond of him enough to pick this up. I love villains in any media, always have, Spider-Man villains are my bread and butter when it comes to Marvel but X-Men villains were a close second growing up. That said Blob just somehow evaded me, I knew of most other X-villains but him, Avalanche and Mojo were just a few of the ones I didn't immediately know about, so his impression isn't as burned into my brain as say Magneto or Juggernaut.
Even without that I simply don't have the space for bigger characters like him or Mojo on my X-villains shelf as it currently stands, but at least for now the major villains that I personally hold near and dear I have for the most part, so I'm mostly happy with that display. I do hope we get a regular Mystique again though since I don't have her, and Magneto and Sabretooth I don't feel have really great versions yet.
He looks so incredible! I hope he's overstocked and clearances quickly 🤣🤣
Me too, I need fodder for a Big Bertha, haha!
I love this figure, he looks like John Candy lol
I really want a Stonewall, Super Sabre, and Crimson Commando so we can have a Freedom Force display...
Question, do you have any idea when the adventure series figs will be in your hands? I’m excited for a review
I have absolutely no idea, haha. Hoping soon?
@@TheFwoosh I was wondering because I’ve seen people review them on yt and was curious if you had them too, but I think they new a guy🤔
"Did you just call me... Blob."
Fred Dukes
X-men Origins Wolverine 2009.
Hey would make an easy custom for alpha flights pink pearl……
Your are a legend😁😁😁
Did I see correctly that it looks like there is a swivel at the top of the boot too?
I noticed that too. It's a separate piece but glued on.
Good figure but a blob marvel select I would Like ,gladiator ,bishop ,(jugernaut ans abomination with more heads and hands)
Excellent presentation.
I was proud to possess the first old version but now I really want the forthcoming figure !!!
7:29, no sorry Robo I'm adding my Blob to my Wolverine Rogues gallery because I can. No one can stop me, mine will be done.
Hey, if you don’t need that BAF right foot…my custom Volstagg could use it!
(Packed it up altogether when I moved in 2013, it somehow disappeared when I unpacked it in 2015? 🤷♂️🤦♂️)
Will this be available at retail? Otherwise, I’m fine with my BAF.
I’ve got a newer Rikishi standing in for Sumo, but they just released a new one…that still has skinny arms. 🙄
I can't imagine a blob better than this. Looks superb.
I _definitely_ can. One that's accurately scaled, so way bigger, and without the gigantic noggin.
@@Chalor. this Blob is definitely big enough. Check out almost every comic appearance he’s had since X-Men #3. He’s either this size of smaller. He’s always been shorter than Hulk or Juggernaut.
Making me jealous with all those Mafex T.T
Someone should customize this into a Peter griffin lol
Pretty neat but YIKES at the near $60 price point. I just got a Kalibak for $40 and I think hes probably bigger and more detailed.
7:11 That looks like a guy Wolverine's height. Just look at the proportions with the head size. It's more like a really short fat dude in 1/8 scale. Not trying to be all negative here, just pointing out the obvious that it could've been done better...but could've turned out a lot worse. Even with all the stupid hasbro decisions, I'm still glad we got a new one. Certainly prefer the smoother look over the previous Stay Puft Cottage Cheese Man version.
Robo ordering from Canada while I'm getting one from BBTS. I'm sure you didn't pay that much more after the exchange rate.
I think Marvel Select can kill it. Since they're good at big figures
The blob cool figure 2023
Is he a Hasbro Pulse exclusive or will he eventually come in stores?
It's a regular release, as far as I know.
@@TheFwoosh gotcha
I like how this looks but I don't know if the price is justified, at least they could have packed some more accessories but then I'm not so sure what extra thing would blob need
Some snackage, like a ham or pizza?
Some snackage, like a ham or pizza?
@@brainlock72 that or some impact effects that they then can re use with other figures
I'm mixed. Something about the proportions seems off, like he's not a bigger character but an 8 inch scale figure, I think his face seems a little big on his head. I had gotten a clearance WWE Otis to make a custom, but theres a lot I do like with this figure.
I can see that, because it's technically a dude with just a lot of extra weight, his face shouldn't be that big compared to everyone else. But, I can also justify it as more mutation for his structure to carry that weight.
Yeah. Especially when comparing the figure to the comic images they chose to use. The kid that fell in the chocolate lake from Wily Wonka is kinda what he reminds me of as a 8 inch mego kinda scale. Weirdly enough, the Blob has always had a kinda over sized mouth so that looks really well. I think I'd want the eyes and nose spacing to be a little closer together. Head articulates really well though and not sure I'd want a replacement
Robo, we all want our Fred J. Dukes nice and round! Oh and my, he's LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGE!!! lol
New Blob is like new Mojo, just miles ahead of Toybiz 🏆
Agreed. Don't get me wrong, those were great for their time (well, okay, Toy Biz Mojo was small from the get-go) but the new ones are complete upgrades.
There’s no toybiz blob though
You know what he means
Don't shit on the company that started this franchise
Nah. This is a realistically obese person. Blob should be much much bigger.
Does anyone know what happened with Mephisto and the Son of Satan
Nothing beats the blob lol
One year later and I'm buying the re-release for $80😮😮😮
The Blob should have been at least less expensive to buy but the price sucked and he does look cool because it's 100% better than the 2007 version, I don't need, But Fantastic review on the Blob Robo.
it will be great if Marvel remaster X-men the Animated Series using JUST your voice.
I definitely consider this a nicer, more streamlined design compared to the previous, but I just wish they were about an inch taller, way bigger belly, and their head size reduced. Like Anthony mentioned, it does look more like a fat guy cosplayer (semi-realistic, less comic booky), and not the Immovable Blob.
I like. Anthony's analysis, but I think he confuses his opinions as facts, and it definitely clouds his judgment. It's clear at this point that Hasbro has taken a semi-realistic approach to Marvel Legends (and Black Series). Anthony hates that and wishes they would be more exaggerated and stylized like old Toybiz or Sota figures. And you know what? His opinion is perfectly valid! But that's what it is: an opinion. He acts like the figures are objectively worse because of the choice in style, but that's just not the case. A stylistic choice doesn't make the figures any worse (or any better)
“Just one won’t hurt, right?” - Every new collector before buying their first figure.
Awesome!
All he needs is a "let's make Marvel great again" red cap, and maybe a golf club for an accessory.
He’s beautiful 🥺
5:49 for as second I was "What did I see in blobs crotch?"
Keep it away from your Wasp!!!
