NECA THRALL Heroes of the Storm Action Figure Toy Review

[@vilasboasfabricio]

These figures are so amazing and I just have no idea why they didn't sell. So much paint and sculpt for this price point. So many WoW fans out there and still Randy said that the sales where too low. I have almost all of them and I will get the final three definitely. I was hoping to see Jaina, Varyan and the other characters and now I will have to contempt myself with these.

[@graefx]

I'm not a massive Blizzard fan, but this line was phenomenal and had decided to pick up every figure. Haven't been disappointed. Sad to see it end.

[@rapidoodsdoodles]

graefx I'm hoping of Kerrigan. Hope is gone :D

[@david94134]

Nice review. This figure is going to look good with my Mythic Legion figures.

[@Trezzpops]

First thing that I thought of! Although I don't own anything from Mythic Legion... :(

[@dreammotion3330]

I was literally looking for a review of Thrall !!! Good timing !!!

[@lordcchancleta9579]

i think they made up to scale with the game HotS where everyone is the same size for example jim raynor with the armor is tall as Silvana, but if you look in starcraft 2 that armor is way taller next to a human without it.

[@Bubunya]

Very cool reviews on all HOTS figures, thanks. I got all of them including Cloaked Nova from SDCC and really love it. Was so mad when found out NECA lost license for HOTS, on last toy fair they displayed art for 3 more models - Murloc, Brithwing and Diablo (and Diablo 3D print). Well, I guess we will not gonna see them :( Same stupid situation around Blizzard licenses as Mega Bloks lost it for making Starcaft models after showing them on Toy Fair, only Battlecruiser was produced as a limited edition. Well, usual Blizzard business style... About sizes - Neca made this figures based on HOTS in-game models. And in HOTS most of the heroes basically same size =/-, so yes, it's not WoW scaled figures, but HOTS.

[@BanksyMane]

Lol I thought the "And noww kiss" thing @1:38 was hilarious! :) Also, ya I played Warcraft 3 and WoW waaay back in the day and this is my first Orc figure of any kind! I love Orcs and their mythology inside and outisde of Warcraft, so it's great to have such a great representation of an Orc and it being Thrall. Any shortcomings in articulation I can definitely look past when the sculpt and paint look this good! NECA's looking really good lately. Great review!

[@AnthonysCustoms]

+nokturnal02 thanks a lot

[@RossardJames]

As a longtime WoW / Warcraft fan I'm so glad we got Thrall and Sylvanas before the line stopped. Think NECA did great. The sizing is inconsistent for Orcs, but based on WoW I'd say it works. They can be as short as a tall human (around 6-5), so maybe this is a bit small but not too bad.

[@AnthonysCustoms]

+RossardJames cool. Thanks for the info

[@Sgontzos1989]

So sad this line ended... Very good quality!

[@joshwolf3564]

So sad that the line is done but it is what it is.

[@diegoborges3716]

I don't know anything about this line. What ir supposed to be? It's inspired by WoW (I know very little of it too)?

[@AnthonysCustoms]

+Diego Borges heroes of the storm

[@PicklerEntertainment]

Yeah, the game is Heroes of the Storm, but Thrall is a major character in the Warcraft Universe. It's sad to see that this line has ended. There are so many awesome character designs &I would've loved to see them complete the full roster.

[@alfredorihuela6097]

Wish they had done a 3rd wave. Would have loved to see the tauren with the guitar axe

[@PicklerEntertainment]

Yeah. I still need to get my hand on Stitches... But, I would like to have seen Lunara, Malthael, Medivh, Monk, Witch Doctor, etc. Or Deluxe figures for their Diablo, Cho'gall, The Butcher, Rexxar, and Zagara.

[@yorick4179]

Sylvanas was an elf before becoming undead, and in the game she is not a short gal. At least to me, her height seems ok.

[@OverX6time]

Neca always manages to make quality figures at an affordable price

[@yorick4179]

Sad to see this line go. I am considering getting the wow figures from it. But knowing I would be restricted to only 4 figures, with no expectation of more moves me towards seeing what will Blizzard do with their licenses, regarding figures. Even so, I might get this 4 figures.

[@Magikknight76]

Great review Anthony!!! He looks amazing...

[@williamhudson1866]

Great review Anthony. Quick question. I just got the Marvel Legends young Thor from the Gladiator Hulk wave and his left arm isn't fully pegged into the torso. What do you think the best way to get the arm to fully peg in to the torso would be as I don't think force will work. Thanks

[@brianjaytakumi9230]

The orc was tall in wow i dont know in hots, but it suppose to be taller like 8 or 9 inch tho.

[@Bat-talk]

I'm not familiar with this much but I was thinking of this when I heard bout Thor 3's HULK

[@PicklerEntertainment]

Sylvanas is an Undead Night Elf and in general Night Elves are taller than Orcs... So he's about right. Orcs are not very tall in the Blizzard Universe but they are incredibly bulky.

[@Barbariandisks]

Shodaximus she is a high elf, not night elf

[@PicklerEntertainment]

Sure... But, the height remains the same.

[@Trezzpops]

Nah, night elves are stated to be taller than their high-born cousins

[@SoundwaveSC]

Where did you hear the line was done?

[@AnthonysCustoms]

+SSJ5Gogetenks NECA

[@SoundwaveSC]

Yeah I ended up asking them on Twitter and they confirmed :(

[@Yamaneko81]

no review of the hammer?

[@AnthonysCustoms]

+KillerTapeworm Tapeworm what?

[@dbhenkknehdb11]

hey anthony this might be a weird question but for which people do you make customs

[@TheAdmiral117]

Lok'tar, friend

[@johnjihoonyim0317]

Well...in wow elf is really bigger than human and orc was big but during their drinking blood of mannoroth there getting more bigger and powerful still orcs and elves height is similar (sorry for bad grammar and i'm not wow usere mostly heroes of the storm player in asia)

[@kendellbedenfieldjr9936]

Can you do Jim Raynor ?

[@scrantonisity]

This line and a few DBZ Figuarts are the only toy lines I collect so I'm pretty bummed to hear this line is ending. Looks lime its due to Blizzard ending the license. Maybe we'll start seeing figures from someone else. Hopefully its not McFarlane.

[@AnthonysCustoms]

good smile is already doing blizzard figures.

[@scrantonisity]

Do they have all of Blizzard or just Overwatch? I would love to see what they come up with but I have a feeling they aren't interested in Starcraft or Warcraft figures. Definitely not at the same price. Neca was killing it with most of their HotS figures.

[@lostnugget02]

Its hulk from thor ragnarok jaja

[@mohammadshafiksheikh9778]

Dark Slayer lol same

[@Bat-talk]

lol I think they actually got inspiration from Warcraft and all this

[@rapidoodsdoodles]

Dark Slayer it seems thor and hulk merge :D

[@akachi1046]

It is thrall idiot

[@saghidjuarez2841]

damn why is the heroes of the storm line coming to an end already?

[@cervato100]

It's because of Blizzard and the "low sales for the figures" and now they have their own trademark Blizzard Collectibles, so they're going to make their own figures/statues

[@drakozero8]

Wow the lines ending the HECK! Man maybe if they pumped out more figures more then once a year they could have saved this line.... this is horrible. I love these figures, neca jumps hoops for ninja turtles that can only be sold at exclusive conventions but can't have this line stay alive? Bull crap.

[@AnthonysCustoms]

one has nothing to do with the other. if blizzard wants to go in a different direction, neca has no control over that. totally different scenario than when it's only a matter of licensing.

[@Faithoverfear04]

Is he ever gonna talk about 100k

[@cyrusjaygaringarao9031]

Yes I am a "HOTS" person. *wink* *wink* lol

[@canadianturfsandwich1258]

Neca usually makes shitty figures, but with these, they surpassed themselves. Its sad it didn't sell well.

[@NitroCigarette]

I want the Sylvanas fig so bad but eh, her skin tone is off.

[@cyrusjaygaringarao9031]

how is it off?

[@AnthonysCustoms]

+Cyrus Jay Garingarao you'll see in the review

[@NitroCigarette]

It's TOO blue, she isn't that saturated in colour.

[@NitroCigarette]

If anything it should be a very very muted shark skin blue, almost dark gray. She' dead, for one... NECA's paint job makes her look like the blueberry girl from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. :/ She's also been a very LIGHT blue, and also a greenish colour but never this.

[@baylar2950]

thrall

[@daijoboudesuka]

Elves are supposed to be tall right? At least female elves are as tall as male humans? Orc is bigger at least.. i guess the height is fine.. O.o

[@The_Rage_Kage]

the Orcs size kinda changes throughout the games and lore. kind of fucking annoying if you ask me.

[@TheAdmiral117]

Lok'tar, friend
