![]() ![]() If they at least switched weapons up, or even offered one or two new pieces, I'd be a lot happier. I totally agree with you about Hasbro doing too many repaints that don't have any thought. You don't have interest on them, or are them not availaible where you live? Because i swear that if you manage to get a Magna Defender you will enjoy reviewing it, as it offers a lot of options to customize it. Oh, for curiosity, i saw that you made reviews of a lot of Hasbro figures but i never saw you doing a Lightning Collection figure. Maybe call them Eggsnake Troopers, ha, ha! After all, who said imagination is only for kids? Slaughter having the same Cobra Officer AK-esque rifle? What happens, the Joes reuse COBRA's weapons like if we play Grand Theft Auto or Max Payne?Īpart of the repaint theme, i found out some cool things, like that the Retro CG looks cool with Cobra Commander's silver blaster pistol (as it coincides with the silverish paint applications of the CG), Cobra Commander looks cool with the Alley Viper modern rifle or the CG pistol, or that the B.A.T.s can be used as some sort of Dr. They just decide to pack him the Alley Viper weapons instead of the Alpha Commandos version ones? Or Sgt. The Viper 3-pack can be more expensive but it offers more diversity IMO.Īlso, the Snake Eyes and Timber (2022) release was an insult for me. Like the Cobra Vallyries 2-pack, it's just the same equipment on both figures except for the heads and helmets. I would prefer to pay (if i had the money, of course) a bit more just to have more accesories instead of always recycling the same ones over and over and over again. What enrages me it's that the repaints always have the same accesories over and over again. Like the Python Patrol Viper variant, which also looks decent for my eyes Well, my problem with the repaints it's not that they are a repaint, obviously, because Bazooka's shells look cool on the standart repaint version. Whenever we put on a movie or a TV show at home, I tend to grab an action figure or too and mess around with it while we're watching, and these are just great hand candy, so to speak. I feel more confident messing around with the DC Multiverse stuff than about anything else on the market these days. Cool stuff, but meant to sit on the shelf rather than mess around with. The same can be said for the McFarlane stuff I picked up in middle school and high school: McFarlane Monsters, Spawn: The Movie, Spawn: The Dark Ages, Austin Powers, and Movie Maniacs. ![]() The original Spawn figures came out when I was in 5th grade and while they were insanely cool, they were pretty fragile at times. I'm still impressed by how sturdy and high quality McFarlane Toys' figures feel. The articulation just flows with the sculpt and he looks absolutely intimidating in whatever pose you put him in. * While Nekron doesn't have any mid-torso articulation and his lower body might be a bit inhibited by his robe, he really is quite well articulated. Let's see how he measures up after the break. I've never owned those previous figures, but McFarane's looks the most impressive. Nekron, the personification of death and ruler of the Land of the Unliving, is a pretty powerful being in the DC Universe and he's been tackled before as an action figure by Mattel in DC Universe Classics (he was a build-a-figure) and by DC Direct in their Blackest Night series. I'm familiar with Blackest Night, though, and that's the story that this figure is "sourced" to in this line. I like the Green Lanterns just fine as part of a Justice League story, but it's just my least favorite part of the DC Universe. While I'm a huge DC fan (mostly because of Batman and everything/ everyone related to him), I really don't care much for the Green Lantern Corps stuff. On second thought, if I had seen Nekron in person and on sale, I probably would have picked him up. Today I'm checking out another DC Multiverse Megafig from last year: Nekron! I honestly probably wouldn't have picked up Nekron on his own even though he's a really cool looking figure, but the only way I could manage to get Bane at retail price was by preordering a set and Nekron was the other figure in the case. ![]()
