Retro card all the way. It looks like the cartoon, comics and animated series! 💙💙💙

[@5POAFigureReviews]

For sure!

[@lssjgaming1599]

Select is definitely the better figure but i overall much prefer the Retro card just cuz of the colors. The purple just adds a nice contrast with the blues

[@5POAFigureReviews]

It really does

[@jonathandevereaux298]

Select isn't better, that head is awful, the neck looks odd. A few hand accessories don't a good figure make.

[@hadinataharya9231]

yes I agree, and I’m glad I have one 😊

[@LosMSR]

Select takes the cake here, one of the powers of Apocalypse is, he can change the height. He looks more powerful, if he upscale the other villains in the display.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

True!

[@Horrorhound-lp6hp]

I saw a guy on reddit kitbash the toybiz head on the select head and ML hands. Actual perfection

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Hmm, interesting

[@XZKMO]

I made that kitbash. Also dyed and airbrushed the select body to make it more X-Factor Apocalypse like. I love how it towers above the other legends figures but with the darker colorscheme it makes for a sinister presence.

[@Brody-uo9ux]

Can’t wait for the Nightcrawler vs! He’s always been my favorite X-Men as well. Great video as always!

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Thank you! Gonna be a couple three weeks at least before I get to it, but it's coming!

[@zephyrleapold6796]

Select also looks great with the animated version head

[@JRSanchez93]

There's something about Gorillapocolypse I really like. Ever since I first laid eyes on it in Glen Webb's evolution videos of him, there was something about it I always loved.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

One of Glenn's best videos

[@rickytoddbotelho9555]

Every time I see that retro one i want it ❤😂

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Hope you can get one!

[@JomasterTheSecond]

Retro Apocalypse is my personal favourite. Tempted to pick him up and paint the purple grey in order to make him look all Marvel Vs. Capcom-y though.

[@nerox2984]

Thank you so much for the versus!

[@5POAFigureReviews]

You're so welcome!

[@megagrey]

Wow, you said this one's been coming, and now was the perfect time! Growing up I had the 9" projector figure Apocalypse with the mace-handed arm, but for the longest time had that 10" old-school version you showed on my shelf. The Select one wasn't quite as big but otherwise I've ADORED having such an intricately-designed version of En Sabah Nur, and the head sculpt never bothered me. And kudos for the old Toybiz Nightcrawler too. That's also been my go-to Kurt for a very long time. Would LOVE to see a versus video for Nightcrawler AND Colossus.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Timing is my superpower lol

[@canadian1893]

I was thinking about what to buy and the reviews helped me a lot. Thank you!

[@5POAFigureReviews]

You're so welcome! That's what it's all about

[@litterboxstudios]

I got Select for less than any Legends version and it’s great. The height and details alone clinches it, but the articulation is better than I expected.

[@zephyrleapold6796]

Yes! One I really wanted to see with this exact group

[@MrYale007]

When Select gets it right there's nothing better.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

True!

[@Hilltopperpete]

I still love the ToyBiz BAF. I also really enjoyed the earlier 90s 5" ToyBiz 7POA Apocalypse that came with a claw and a missle launcher (2nd edition) and the 10" version. They knocked the sculpt and proportions out of the park for some of those early ToyBiz figures. Although the V1 Apocalypse and Magneto were incredibly goofy.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Yeah, if I could only ever own one Apocalypse, it would be the Toy Biz BAF

[@AndrewDesilva-co8yp]

always great quality visuals here from jason but guy I can't handle your voice xD

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Thank you for the kind words. As far as my voice, can you be more specific? Like, is it the volume? My energy? Pitch? If there is something I can work on, I want to be better.

[@joey159213]

With Xmen 97 being white hot right now. I prefer retro Apac. Falls in line with with xmen mafex figs aswell.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Totally understandable! Like I said, if your collection skews more animated it's perfect for that.

[@IronDeficiencyMan]

Whenever you get to the Nightcrawler from X-Men 97, I NEED to see if the 2019 headsculpts look good on the 97 figure

[@5POAFigureReviews]

You know it

[@sandeepsaini420]

I really love the select version

[@5POAFigureReviews]

You can't go wrong with it

[@gugagamer2585]

I've seen only two reviews of select apocalypse and both of those reviews his metal tubes unplugged in the articulation segment, does his tubes pop off regularly? And does the retro apocalypse looks good with archangel claws? I think he might since his arm cannon is almost the same color as the claw

[@corporatebillionaire824]

Marvel Select all the way.

[@gregarcher8177]

It came down to the two I have and I cant decide. I love the retro for my animated display but really like select as well, it does look more like an MCU version though but its a good figure.

[@MK7-MephistoKevin777]

Thanks for the tip, I would like the taller Marvel Select mainly for the accessories, I own the Blue Metallic 2018 build a figure with the claw, and love it, but it did cost me 120 US total, I do like the extra stuff on the Retro card version and like the face a bit more, possibly the paint ? I should just be satisfied with the one I got. But I am tempted to get another version.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

The struggle of being a collector is the ongoing desire to upgrade, I totally understand

[@dopecactus1749]

A Versus on Colossus would be fun. There's a toybiz version of him that is practically a myth at this point cuz I haven't seen any reviewer mention/bring them up for comparisons.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

I know the one. I have it. And it will be in the Versus ;-)

[@juanfrugal]

I own the Select version and it's a fantastic figure for a Marvel vs. Capcom display.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

I bet!

[@jameswestervelt6808]

I put retro card in my display. Looks great with the X-Men '97!

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Oh yeah it's a great match!

[@jerklesirkfourthreezeronin5125]

9:26 that image is burned into my head. i like select the best but the eyes on it look sort of goofy. Maybe when I get it i'll paint them red.

[@claudio.alves89]

Select 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@deviantknight7009]

Shoulda thrown the Toybiz giant for fun :)

[@luckypapi87]

Excellent video. I prefer the BAF though.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

It's a good one!

[@miragexl007]

Retro carded...pretty easy pick fir me. Is loved the select but when I got the retro... Much better.. And picked up a second 1 for 25 bucks at big bad toy store sale.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Hope you can nab one!

[@zfletch30]

I like the select body with the retrocard head as the ideal figure. then you still have an alternate head with legends body for an animated version... best of both worlds B-)

[@5POAFigureReviews]

True!

I can't wait for you to review the page punchers ghosts of krypton superman with detachable armor and superman blue figures Jason but also soon enough I hoped you review the our worlds at war superman Ed mcguinnis figure (based on a specific storyline not be confused with he future state version).

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Page Punchers Superman will be a huge video, coming Sunday next week. It will feature head swaps, the armor on other Superman figures, and more!

[@edrianraneses5864]

[@jacobfoster9185]

You should take pictures of them with marvel universe xmen. Same if you have a hazlab sentinel. Hazlab Galactus and any universe figures ❤

[@5POAFigureReviews]

I don't have many Marvel Universe figures, but I have a few. That's a fun idea!

[@doro626]

I hate the head on the select, so I guess that means retro. They are getting better with their releases though, so if you wait eventually they will give an almost perfect one.

[@beezlebubb]

I just recently picked up Marvel Selects Venom/Madness Venom, and I totally blame you for the fact I'm hunting down Spectacular Spidey and now this Apocalypse.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

I will happily shoulder the blame for that lol

[@beezlebubb]

​@@5POAFigureReviewsIk u do a lot of comparisons, but would u say to grab Select Spidey for a mixed display or is he just too tall?

[@TyrantTiger85]

I like Juggernaut & Apocalypse my two fave characters of all time..

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Hope you also got to see my Juggernaut Versus then!

[@shipped_my_pants_3000]

Just heat and pop the Select version's head off, pop on the head from the Retro card version, peg size is the same. And you have a perfect Apocalypse

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Yeah I made the mistake of trying to pry the Select head off, which is how I chipped the chin

[@shipped_my_pants_3000]

@@5POAFigureReviews yeah I don't know why for some reason, that head was particularly difficult to remove. Even with hot water and jewelry pliers

[@William_995]

@@5POAFigureReviews ah I see

[@BilSande4]

I have the BAF version, and I think it's the perfect Apocalypse. I wouldn't trade him for any of the others. The Retro version is to cartoonish and flat looking. The Marvel Select is too gangly and thin. (I like my Apocalypses swole). And the ToyBiz, it's way too outdated. So for me personally the clear winner is the BAF. But that's just my 2-cents.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

The BAF is fantastic! I am glad for options, but it if was all we ever had, it would be enough

[@daniellenihan9832]

[@5POAFigureReviews]

For real

[@OnkelCthulhu]

Select one is the best, but even better with one of the heads from the retrocard one. His head is way to big imo.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Agreed

[@toadsavage9218]

Did you hold his thigh when you tried to bend the knee? That break seemed unnecessary and it happened more than once.

[@miffedakko9312]

To be honest, I've never really liked any of these figures except the select one. Apocalypse is a very intelligent and emposing character, but when it comes to the toybiz and hasbro offerings, they're way too small and have the proportions of a generic brute/goon. The head is too big, and the Hasbro has the best head sculpt overall, but he doesn't feel too chunky to me.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

I totally get where you're coming from

[@thebaker525]

Having the claw not being able to clamp on the Select makes it feel useless ngl
