Action Figure Comparison: Marvel Legends Old Vs New (Should you buy the Lovers Triangle 3 pack???)

Thanks for joining me as I comare the new versions of Cyclops, Wolverine and Jean from the Lovers Triangle 3 pack to their previously released counterparts.
The goal of this video is to help you decide if you need this 3 pack if you already own the other versions.
I hope it's helpful to you guys.
Thanks for watching!

[@mikelorenzoart]

I never thought I would love repaints and reissues so much. So happy to have my Jim Lee/Animated X-Men teams. Great review, amigo.

[@UnparalleledUniverse]

Hahaha yeah Hasbro has mastered art of repaints. They are doing some great stuff.

[@DXTokusatsu]

I can't unsee the sideview of batman on wolverine's mask. lol

[@CandGoods]

I got these yesterday from Gamestop. Main get from the pack is Jean, obviously, but I wasn't collecting Legends when the Warlock wave Cyclops came out, so I'm happy to have the Jim Lee look in some form. One of the earliest Legends I got was the Apocalypse wave Wolverine, but mine had two right boots (with correct feet though), so in light of that, I'm very happy to have this new Wolverine from the 3-pack.

[@CandGoods]

@@PeachBoi_Real They're just toys dude, relax. Also, in the time since that comment I did up a new body for Cyclops out of the blue X-Men suit Deadpool, so in the end I got double-jointed elbows.

[@Chalor.]

1:14 - they used different arms cause Logan is short, so their arms are shorter. It would've gave Scott T-Rex arms.

[@UnparalleledUniverse]

Good call. That was probably it!

[@KitbashCustoms]

It’s a must have most def!! I wasn’t feeling the wolvie or cyke but they honestly grew on me. I still prefer the apoc wave wolvie and warlock wave cyke tho but for those who missed out this is def a god chance to get everything you want in one pack

[@mr.smithgnrsmith7808]

This Wolverine looks better imo...more animated series look...should’ve had battle damaged shoulder pads like the 12 inch version....and his unkmasked head is WAY too small...looks good, same as 12 inch, but like 3x too small...Hasbro is awful with proper proportioning..Thing and Colossus’s fists are also way too small...Hulk fists too

[@smoothjazz6931]

Mr.SmithGNR Smith how about sh figuarts

[@THSNDS]

That old Jean Grey is indeed, now, *BASURA* And good call on Random. That figure would be amazing!

[@UnparalleledUniverse]

Random would be such a cool figure! Would make a great BAF with interchangeable arms. I appreciate you checking out the little after the credits style review haha. Thanks!

[@JohnHenrysaysHi]

It's nice to see them catering to the X-Men Animated Series audience. I'd like to see civilian looks from the series. It would be great to see Wolverine's outfit from the Nightcrawler episode. That episode is one of my favorite pieces of animation. Keep up the great work.

Thanks! I have a bunch more on the way!

[@Chalor.]

As much as I was blown away with seeing the Mafex one, after the newness goes away, this'll be the definitive tiger stripe. With the super long claws and such, it'll be in my Marvel vs Street Fighter display with my Figuarts. I know, the Amazing Yamaguchi one is more fitting (technically), but too stylized for the Bandai SF figures.

[@haydentcem]

I love the wider cowl and better colors on Wolvie

[@minitower]

I wish they would give us an animated unmasked head for Wolverine

[@anthonyshepard1407]

Love the set one problem with my Cyclops, his belt moves and un-pegs when you push his ab crunch forward. Otherwise the Jean and Wolverine came out ok, not great paint apps but still ok! I highly recommend everyone who gonna buy thing check to see if there's more Lovers Triangle 3 packs before purchasing.

[@gwenb.4179]

Great review.... The animated Jean Grey alternate head has a very thick lips. it looks like she's been "KEEPING UP WITH THE KARDASHIANS". LOL!!!!

[@DeadpoolXI1]

I don't have any of the firts versions, I see this as an absolute win

[@ThatGenericPyro]

Definitely looking forward to this 3-pack *no matter what,* 'cause it just looks awesome. I mean: An updated Jim Lee Jean Grey (that also actually acknowledged the ponytail from the cartoon for once), a jacketed Cyclops (not terribly exciting for me but it's still a pretty good variant), and a more accurately colored "tiger-stripe" Wolverine who comes with more stuff than the Apocalypse wave one (which I don't have anyway)? Sign me up! EASILY the top of my Christmas List this year next to that new Jedi: Fallen Order game.

[@td19589]

Had a set from gamestop and a set from Hasbro Pulse on the same day, the Jean in both sets had issues.. ended up swapping pieces between them to cobble together a "good" one and selling the other set. Love these figures but the paint really is hit or miss. About cyclops, correct me if I am wrong but I think you could crack that torso and swap in the arms from the Phoenix/Cyke 2 pack version.. I am not 100% certain but I Think the base plastic is the same color.. you would just have to remove (acetone) the yellow paint/light blue shading on the 2 pack's arms, wouldn't be a super difficult custom if I am right about the blues matching.

[@UnparalleledUniverse]

I'm not to sure if the color matches but you are probably right. Sucks you had to get 2 sets to make 1 good Jean.

[@venger78]

Why not a patchless patch head!!! I totally agree and would love someone to do a custom of it. Great review as always man.

[@UnparalleledUniverse]

Thanks! I really hope hasbro does a patchless patch head one day.

[@kaiju-odanny9778]

I happen to find two of them in my local Gamestop so hopefully, I'll have the chance to have Wolverine, Cyclops, and Jean Grey to my collection. And someday, I might collect Juliabee, Beast, Storm, Rogue, Gambit, and Xavier in the future.

[@schwann1826]

Well luckily for you they're all easy to get other than Rogue

[@kaiju-odanny9778]

@@schwann1826 Hopefully, they will re-release Rogue in the near future, perhaps a two-pack with Gambit.

[@suhtangwong]

I think I'm the only person ik that enjoys the triangle pack, not only for Jean, but for wolverine and cyclops. They come with lots of accessories that the old ones didn't, better color schemes (for wolverine, cyclops a bit too dark, but reminiscent of the 90s xmen show) and alternative heads for both. The Scott summers head are great! You can tell it's Scott and it's nice to have that addition. I would've gotten that cyclop individually but wanted the Jean too, so just got the whole pack and don't regret it.

[@ravenfrancis8803]

I already have the old. Wolverine so when I get this for my birthday, I might give the accessories from the 3 pack except the metal atamantiam claws to the old one I like the look better, even tho I already have a unmasked from the vintage, and the bone claws are dope

[@betsmendoza]

[@juststeve2579]

Finding these figures are so difficult where I live but I finally had luck.. in gamestop of all places

[@Chalor.]

They did improve the fins (ear flaps). They don't stick out a whole lot more, but I think that little bit makes a huge difference. I think it's cool too how they changed the nose stripe, and the stripes on their sides. All around, a lot of little differences that make it feel completely new.

[@GrendelsWish]

This sweet comparative video got me to subscribe.

[@soundofmetal]

1:28 I think also they used multiple man's arms because he is about the same size as Cyclops. Using old man Logan's arms would have been too short on Cyclops.

[@Chalor.]

I love the new colour schemes. It doesn't make me feel like I didn't get my money's worth with getting two of the same figures. Definitely enough differences to make each (non Jean) figure shine. I love how the bone claws _and_ silver bits are removable. And that battle damaged head is definitely not a shrunken down 12" one..which was something a lot of us just assumed.

[@TheWenzinator]

I didn't start really collecting these till latley but the Cyclops with jacket bums me out because his look is iconic without. Still really awesome to get these 3 in one set!

[@jacobscopperfield7660]

The hair on marvel legends are amazing

[@Chalor.]

I never picked up that Jean, even when it was new...not that I ever saw it in stores. Even though I've been collecting Legend since day one, I never bought a female figure until Spiral. I was thinking the other day how bad I feel for all those that spent $100 or more for the old Jean. I'd look on the bright side and say you can pop the alternate head on it so you have two _near_ completely different sculpts.

[@THEWATCHERISLOOKING]

All these Wolverines and still no Rouge. Give us rouge at least with the metallic green. Come on Hasbro.

[@jaelyncoleman3991]

I’d love a rerelease of Rogue. I have the Diamond Select Rogue but had to modify her to get her to fit in scale properly because I wasn’t collecting Legends when the original Rogue came out and by now she’s $100+ anywhere I look.

Cool review UU! Really looking forward to this set. I like how you reiterated that the previous Wolvie & Cyke figures weren't bad figures. Some of the reviews of these new ones make it sound like the previous figures are complete trash now, lol. Jean is definitely better than her old version.

[@UnparalleledUniverse]

Thanks man! Yeah those aren't bad figures at all. The new ones are better for sure but the old ones are still nice.

@@UnparalleledUniverse great for building your Jim Lee/Earth-92131 X-Men roster

The bomber jacket Cyclops is a great addition to the collection but the Cyclops Warlock wave is still the definitive 90s Jim Lee X-Men, hands down. That bomber jacket Cyclops is a good representation when Scott is being a jackass like wolvy at times.

[@clarencestallworth5541]

I swear, I’ve not heard any reviewer mention Cane from X-Force. Do people not remember him anymore ? How can he be forgotten ? He was like the second in command under Cable. I remember they made 2 versions of him back in the early Hasbro toy release, 90’s wave of the Marvel figure’s. They released the Cane with the red, high collared version with the fist that shoot out with the retractable string attached that had the cybernetic arm’s and grey leg’s and the second wave Cane with the green outfit having the mechanical arm’s, holding a blade thingy that spend as a gimmick feature... Does no one remember Cane anymore ? I would love to see him added to the Marvel Legends X-Force wave.

Sell her quick while she's going for 50 bucks loose.

[@atomiclasagna]

Same, I really don't have that much interest for the new Jean.

[@Chalor.]

The pervy smirk Logan has on their face or the peanut head doesn't bother me; it's the lack of having their hairstyle. It's even more drastic than the Puck wave head. Crewcut Logan is no bueno. Yeah...why can't they make the Patch head without the eyepatch? Or the Madripoor head with a gritting or closed mouth. Those are the only two really good unmasked heads.

Vexx_Productions pretty close to it. Maybe $10 short

[@BilSande4]

Thanks for the comparison video. Very thorough job. I would say that if you don't have the previous figures then yes this set is a must have. But if you already have all 3 of the older figures is it worth laying out $70 for slightly better versions of the same characters? The answer, for me anyway, is no not really. Now if even one of the figures was a character that we didn't have yet, then maybe I'd consider it worth the money. But it's too tough to earn a buck these days to shell out that amount of hard earned cash for basically the same figures over and over again. I mean I wouldn't pay $70 for just that Jean Grey figure, so I can safely pass on this one.

[@hugeackman8182]

The Wolverine doesn’t come with fists with retracted claws because they are the removable ones

I assume the Jacket arms are different as the connection points in the bodies are different. When doing the custom jacket swap you have to pad it out, the new jacket arms are designed for the Bucky cap so easier to do.

I think when you have a masculine figure, a darker yellow is the way to go. Take the cartoon characters we love and add a hint of pragmatism as you bring them into a tangible realm. For instence, I don't want any of my heroes going around with playtex dish gloves. As such, the Apocalypse Wolvie and Warlock Cyclops are more practical, even if the new ones are more cell accurate. Cartoon wolverine was ridiculous eventhough i loved watching the cartoon!
