Marvel Legends APOCALYPSE Deluxe Action Figure Review

Hasbro has been changing up their game recently and we have been getting a much more diverse range of collectibles this past year. But how well will this relatively unknown look for the X-Men's worst enemy sell as a more expensive deluxe release?

I still prefer these deluxe versions of figures rather than having to buy an entire wave with half of the figures being shitty in order to get the BAF. Especially when some of the BAFs get reissued later on with slight improvements and/or new paint and accessories.

[@ferb8021]

Yea like Juggernaut, the figure was very nice but could have been the second version from the beginning.

[@BBmetalhead04]

Thank you. I’ve been saying for a while now that Marvel Legends should move away from the BAF model and use that budget on individual releases (similar to what they are doing with there other 6 inch lines). Just release the larger characters under a higher price point.

[@BGLoscar]

BAF is the main reason why I got into ML.. BAF reissue is the reason why I stopped buying the whole wave.. Ever since they reissued Movie Groot, I stopped buying the entire wave cause Hasbro will re-release the BAF in the future as a single card or part of a pack that's better anyway... Saved me a lot of $$$

[@whozyourdaddy]

Without the BAF though, how could Hasbro get you to buy 2 or 3 lazy, lackluster figures every wave?

[@aunghtoohtooko5861]

Well i guess you can think of a baf as an early access to a figure. Keep in mind that some international collectors just can't afford to get entire waves of figures. So these deluxe releases are good for them.

[@aunghtoohtooko5861]

I hope they rerelease the baf apocalyse with animated style painting.

[@hazeleduardo2354]

Damn, you nailed It, u got exactly what you asked for.

[@nwobw]

My abd crunch is perfectly tight on my AOA Apocalypse. I am a huge Apocalypse fan and a giant fan of the AOA storyline. Dare I say, this is my favorite Marvel Legends figure I own?

[@danielbenjaminmesser6234]

Just think Neca’s Super Shredder is roughly the same price as this piece of shiny plastic but Super Shredder had cloth goods, better range of motion in most areas, more accessories and tons and tons of paint detail.... at least Hasbro could have used some of their billions to at least make it a little better.... damn they are cheap to be a billion dollar company!

[@terryxperry]

There are cheap because people still buy. Stop buying and vote with your wallet.

[@leyenda6149]

No lie. I only bought this figure to customize it

[@D-Prime248]

Same, one for classic Apocalypse and another for Thanos

[@leyenda6149]

@@D-Prime248 much cheaper to use a $30 mold than whatever a complete apocalypse baf is going for now on ebay

[@tommygeorgejr2931]

Me2

[@jamesvazquez4961]

Yup. I'm only gonna buy this dude to make venom and movie Venom.

[@linkostrich3256]

Same here. I’m thinking Sigma from Megaman X

[@leechqueen4604]

Would love to see a Storm Collectibles version of this guy and also Comic book Thanos. But one can only dream..

[@ChickenLord319]

Well that Thanos one came true…

[@WeaselJuice]

I’ve had some floppy Hasbro ab-crunches on figures lately. Other floppy joints as well. Disappointing. The pledge floor care hack helps a little.

[@Lantern72]

Im excited to get him. I hope that floppy torso isnt with all of them. Ill be pissed.

[@Paragon132]

The ab crunch on mine is quite loose as well. Seems to be a common issue

[@Ultrazilla]

Nice look, that ab crunch, though, yikes! It's like my Snake-Eyes was, a floppy mess with great aesthetic.

[@IdiocyRandom]

I like BAF version more, but didn't care about that wave much. So this one is my only choice for Apocalypse. Should work standing menacingly on the shelf, I guess.

[@danielbenjaminmesser6234]

There’re is nothing menacing about this figure other than it’s plastic glare....

[@drflexenstein3537]

Got mine not too long ago and am definitely a fan. I'm likely in the minority, but this is my favorite look for the character.

[@ASSIANRED]

Nice review! I like this figure a lot! I was actually very interested in seeing if your had a floppy ab crunch too and it does, that’s a huge bummer

[@figheadsctg4206]

Great Review mine should be in soon

[@robzpippinroad5874]

New here enjoying the videos I’m actually reposting this here in the most recent thread but it’s in regards to a much older video didn’t know if you see current questions in those In Top Ten Figures I would never sell ... This Question as I’m also new to going down the marvel figure rabbit hole Is that Wolverine specifically the apocalypse baf hasbro 2017 And is that Batman the S3 select sculpt series dc super heroes action figure I’d specifically like to find those to start to build a foundation to my collection and just want to make sure I do this correctly thx u enjoy the content

[@beej5]

This man is complaining about jawline. New low

[@AnthonysCustoms]

totally. Why would a reviewer want to provide actual information? nonsense

[@beej5]

AnthonysCustoms it’s a perfect example of your overly critical eye. This is a $30 figure by Hasbro that comes with VERY cleanly painted heads IMO. I don’t know a single person with this figure or that has reviewed that had issues with the jawline. I feel like you are just saying anything to be controversial at this point.

[@edwardmiguez6608]

Was it ever revealed in canon why AOA Apocalypse doesn't have the arm hoses that his 616 and Animated Series version does? You noticed with this version and the AOA comic, he lacks them.

[@arthurf2546]

A diamond select apocalypse figure would be doper than this

[@DuplicitousDark]

joe madureira designs make for bad action figures??

[@aviazx1799]

My dad gave me the toy biz original of this when I was a kid

[@wacksack4630]

do you take custom commissions looking for a custom paint job on a figure within the next few months

[@Danbizzle1984]

the butterly joint (lol) on mine is a bit loose but not nearly as floppy as yours. I'd replace him if I were you!

[@cincila6981]

I like his faces. They look fun and goofy like a dummy comic relief character.

[@danielbenjaminmesser6234]

That’s horrible for a Apocalypse Figure lol

[@Crim222]

I can't wait to get this guy but I think, on the subject of accessories, that these Deluxe releases should come with a base for them to stand on. Like for him, maybe some ground peaking through with skulls and bones littered around him with a pile of skulls on one side of it. At least it would give the sole skull he can hold some nice context and I don't think it would add all that much to the figure's budget.

[@shadowguy20004]

I just want to finish my BAF Apocalypse... need Gladiator, Sabertooth & Magneto :(

[@jacyallman2780]

Just got mine yesterday. Abs are a little loose. But no were near what yours is.

[@theentertainmentbargainbin7044]

my ab crunch is slightly loose. holds its shape perfectly

[@snoopanoop7705]

I prefer the og look with the metal cables but this one looks awesome too and I just found one at a Target 😎

[@northcraft1]

Why when you measure it you get 8 inches but the figure is listed EVERYWHERE at 15,2 cm (6 inch) Im so confused...

[@AnthonysCustoms]

That's the marvel legends normal size in the listing. He's bigger than normal.

[@TheRampage20]

Mine is pretty solid no Cialis needed so it may just be yours

[@CesTorLop]

Loose torso articulation?!? ... *Cancels my AOA Apocalypse order

[@sonicwright5880]

His head looks like dark side

[@GeezyCE]

Mine is loose in the abs too

[@Darkseid.of.Apokolips]

My aoa apocalypse figure's joints quite loose

[@edbelle1168]

Good luck finding this at target Its a target exclusive All the targets around my way in South jersey suck They never have anything in stocks anymore Marvel legends, gi Joe classified, star wars black series Very frustrating

[@nightwing1823]

Same dude. South Jersey fucking blows. Target, Walmart, Gamestop, it all sucks

[@AnthonysCustoms]

It's at bbts.

[@Jor-On]

I'm gonna have to get this soon.

[@hotsuperheroinefightmarvelvsdc]

very cool!

[@cristianojeda2418]

Personally I hate these colors or from the comic comparisons maybe if they made those light color blues dark blue? And the red don’t match color scheme wise cause even though it’s bright red it appears dark as well like it’s a heavy colored bright red Not too sure how else to word that Plus interchangeable hands are nice but at least have sets not just one for one arm if I’m gonna pay a lot for this figure with stuff I gotta learn to live with to have an apocalypse figure least they could do is make it worth it Colors probably work for 80’s-90’s collectors this screams nostalgic to collectors of those eras

[@shaniebaby333]

Just picked this apocalypse up today, found him at Target. I grabbed him along with the new marvel 20 pack of nano metal figs from jada toys and the marvel legends 2 pack of the movie version of deadpool and negasonic...... im most interested in a review from Anthonyscustoms of the new Deadpool!!!!!! Im super happy with the figure!!!!

[@cristianojeda2418]

Can you switch the top red collar part with the dark blue one from 2018 BAF ? Also with shoulder pads?

[@cristianojeda2418]

Also I agree with that laugh head I think what they did would work if it was for an angry screaming head sculpt I myself depending on the fury can have my jaw open at about same measurement vertically at least Like bottom jaw is slightly extended out slightly But right laughing it definitely makes no sense :/ and not too crazy on those eye designs for such a laughing expression

[@tuckyrchristopher2627]

I love this figure, don’t know why, I just do

[@TheCrumpers53]

My ab crunch is super loose too.

[@DestructiconKG]

Just got mine in today and the waist joint is loose as well

[@diobrando6026]

Are you gonna review war machine or is it a pass?

[@whozyourdaddy]

I second this. War Machine is really pretty good.

[@AnthonysCustoms]

Yes. It looks great

[@ferb8021]

Those Colossus hands! Makes me mad that he has both fists but warlock Colossus didn't. Loving the colors! A Hulk body for this guy would be super awesome. Is Juggernaut too much?

[@jamesvazquez4961]

Those fists are not from colossus. These are much bigger. I would love to see venom on this mold. And a bigger mold for apoc.

[@ferb8021]

@@jamesvazquez4961 yea great idea! They need to stop using hyperion mold ASAP, at least for Venom. Is the movie Venom getting a new mold?

@@ferb8021 yup. Movie Venom does have a new mold. But it's to skinny. Even for movie venom.

Im surprised u like this figure, i was hoping im not the only who think this figure is horrible especially the way the cape is. Must be just me then

[@arthurf2546]

To be completely honest, I don’t even care about this figure. I just wanted to give Anthony a view, although the paint is nice.

[@nitro-boy09]

I don't know about this apoc version but I think the Apocalypse BAF is still the best one.

[@helpmekiller3670]

So cool love apocalypse as a figure
