Revoltech THOR Amazing Yamaguchi NR018 Marvel Action Figure Review

[@flute2010]

I really do appreciate the distinction you make between your own personal feelings towards revols and your viewpoint as a reviewer. Hearing you articulate the things you like, like the torso improvements, and your exact issues, like the shoulders, is more refreshing than a 20 minute review blindly praising or shitting on a figure based solely off the brand

[@AnthonysCustoms]

I do my best. Glad you like it. Thanks

[@Day9294_]

This is exactly why he's, in my opinion, the best figure reviewer on KZbin. No bs. Always praises what's good and what's wrong no matter the brand, and his insight and knowledge on figure joints and what not are top notch. I love when he goes into details regarding articulation and things

[@RichardAcevedo2814]

​@@Day9294_ lmao agreed. Occasionally I find someone on fb group or something saying how they dislike his reviews because he'll actually have some negative things to say but with the price of these things, it really does make sense to be discerning and to only add things to your collection that aren't more of a pain in the ass than you'd care for. Or that aren't of poor enough quality

[@SanicSez]

This is fist of North Star all over again. And Guts….3 companies one problem…you know what figure is amazing? The new Figma Guyver. Review it just out of love for good articulation and panit!

[@TheHairyGorilla]

@@Day9294_ Yeah, other ones for marvel stuff atleast the few I did watch tow the company line too much lol... Antony doesn't have an issue pointing out good or bad things as he's not bias.

[@channelorsomething218]

Tbh I'm fine with articulation showing through the sculpt if it means I get crazy poseability. I rarely keep my figures in more neutral stances so the awkward proportion aren't as big of a deal to me.

[@azamianimations]

agree

[@Maddcustoms7]

Anthony, I know it’s harder to come by now, but the revoltech Spider-Man 2.0 is incredible and I think you’d enjoy it much more than Thor. Also the new revoltech agent venom looks amazing

[@AerithxTifa]

2.0 Spidey is on plazajapan, right?

[@mcmurray360]

The Moon Knight is incredible too.

[@raifdanial3206]

I remembered someone in my community told that the designer of the box packaging of AY actually resigned from the company, hence why they have this windowless packaging. Before this, the packaging does have a window to show you the figure with comic artwork all around the box

[@AnthonysCustoms]

Yeah. They did have windows before.

[@qqqqqq4352]

Good to hear more Revo reviews are coming. This line has a different and welcome flavour than other figures and in the last 3 or so years they've been getting better with each release. Their V2 Spiderman not only looks fantastic neutral, its the only one who can practically glue his stretched out legs forwards to his torso. The only figure that can replicate McFarlane cover poses ad literam.

[@SuperFigures-ql2dv]

Man those lightning effects are dope

[@RichardAcevedo2814]

Lol yeah I plan to get some use out of em with that blue superman from the plastic man wave since the effects he comes with are ass

[@Masterplayer1500]

I love Revoltech figures. To this day, to me, they still have made the best 1/12th scale Deathstroke, which I almost missed out on. I had always hoped they would make a Thor but wasn't certain they would. I remember when I was about to pre-order the Mafex Classic Thor, but then on the same day, Kaiyodo revealed this, and I dropped any desire for the Mafex one. Though, I do like Mafex figures. They've been killing it. I love this figure. It's about everything I wanted it to be. Sucks I missed out on Moon Knight and really cut it close with Agent Venom. I missed the pre-orders, but I played the game of checking every night because there's always people who cancel and found one on BBTS.

[@Hilltopperpete]

The lightning effects really help to mask some of the exposed joints. I think he looks pretty great. Are you going to check out their Black Panther? That one is absolutely incredible. As is Moon Knight and the new 2.0 Deadpool.

[@AnthonysCustoms]

Not likely. Sorry

[@Jvm-iq2qe]

Glad to hear you’ll be making more videos on revoltech. I think out of all the figure lines out rn they are the most consistent ones with the quality of their figures. If you buy a revoltech you’re 99% of the time guaranteed to get the figure you saw on the promo pics. No bad paint job, bad articulation or bad quality control either and I hope you notice that in the reviews. The only thing they have severely downgraded on is the packaging. They used to have my favorite box designs out of any figure company and now they’ve gone with windowless packaging which is sad. Regardless I appreciate you going into the revoltech line again and hope some surprise you.

[@ROUGEBLOCK]

Picked this up recently from a credit dude to a loss orange piccolo in international mail. I love this guy, there's so much customization with the lightning effects, though like with all members of this line, accessories come off way to easily.

[@Canadiansamurai]

That accessory count is what the bring arts Cloud SHOULD have come with! For the same price of $130, Revoltech gave us a figure that felt worth its price.

[@epiclvlpurple19]

IMO I would say Mafex is the best in blending great articulation and good sculpt. SHF has the weird thong crouch thing now and most AY figures are just so wonky and goofy looking.

[@kuldipbinning1989]

My first & only revoltech figure. I'm very happy with it. I got it direct from Japan for $100, including shipping to London.

[@chrisburrelljr9270]

New videos every day always makes me happy 😊

[@Brainiac1209]

Revoltech have done a great job since the bleeding edge armor

[@BrejanaeJacob]

I want to see you review the Revoltech FLASHES, and the Revoltech AGENT VEEENOOMMM I just know you’ll love those

[@AerithxTifa]

I really stopped using BBTS for japanese figures. I know that if the fig is $140 on the site, import sites are probably going to have it for way less, even with shipping included, happened with this Thor figure and the newest ShF Guts.

[@TheFigureNomad]

Looking forward for your Agent Venom review. As always excellent insight.

[@Cirroyt]

I’m really digging this guy and I’m thinking of swapping the arms of the Thor with the all might to do a sleeveless look of the figure when he fights all for one

[@kalorathekau]

I was wondering; what would it take engineering-wise to get a figure’s legs to be able to go beyond 90 degrees up, like being able to bring its knees closer to its chest? I thought maybe this figure might, given the line’s reputation for articulation, but it seems this can’t.

[@obsoletus1015]

9:18 that tool is for moving eyes on some older dc and marvel figures and removing eye plates on their My Hero Academia characters.

[@AnthonysCustoms]

Yeah... So why is it here? Lol

[@obsoletus1015]

Very glad i took some time to reply to this, cause i actually have two other revoltech figures, one from before thor released and one from after, and neither of them have that piece because neither of them have the changeable eyes. So, honest answer to the why of the part? No friggin idea. I could speculate that he was meant to have moving eyes, but if that changed, then why keep the part in there? Why waste the plastic for a part like that when its not needed? I have no honest idea at this point, so i totally understand the confusion of its inclusion lol

[@AnthonysCustoms]

quite strange indeed

[@MetalCooler_1000]

Been watching for a long time, please keep reviewing figures from different companies

[@recklessbattler5931]

Wanting to dip my toes into Stop Motion, I find articulation to be my main priority over aesthetics. The figure could be BEAUTIFUL, but I want to actually move it and have plenty of accessories. Personally, Revoltech hits my subjective sweet spot: awesome articulation + solid aesthetics - I love their exaggerated style. I understand the cuts can look mad ugly, but my brain just ... "blocks it out" if that makes sense - not a big issue. Also for aesthetics, they do really well with anime/game adaptions. I'm looking forward to their One Punch Man line and their new Batman from the Arkham game series.

[@Dany21251]

Bro, I can not WAIT for their OPM figures, especially with the Figma Saitama having a whopping total of *two* heads

[@itactacmo]

Does mafex ifinity war strormbreaker fit AY Thor's hands?

[@paulc1553]

I'm an in box collector. Well said, Anthony.

[@Jiggeh]

I don't really mind the Amazing Yamaguchi joints - visually anyway - but I agree some of them could likely be engineered a little differently to stand out a bit less with no major detriment to functionality. As far as the aesthetics go though, I just love the anatomy and dynamism of the sculpts... the shapeless hot dog limbs of so many American action figures are way more of an eyesore to me than these joints! These figures are out of my price range but I do love the way they look. Companies like ToyBiz and Kenner used to make super hero figures with these kind of imposing physiques and exciting proportions back in the 90s, so it both confuses and saddens me that we (mostly) only ever see it in expensive high-end figures out of Asia these days.

[@xeanheart]

I pick and choose when it comes to Revoltech. They seem to do alot better with characters who are armored than those who aren't. For me, the main deal breaker is the shoulders. They go back and forth on the type of shoulders that Thor has here and a more standard design, and the former is just way too ugly for me to handle. Like, the upcoming Ryu Hayabusa looks really good all around... except for the shoulders. Still, I am very happy with the few that I have, and I'll probably pick up their Moon Knight if they ever do a repaint of it to give him his Black & White costume.

[@AnthonysCustoms]

I so hope ryu has really good range on that ugly shoulder.

[@noahmuller8683]

I also have a major gripe with this revoltech Thor figure,it’s the height of revoltech Thor not being 7 inches tall! Like bigbadtoystore pointed out in the product features information.Now that I’ve seen reviews of this revoltech Thor,he’s shorter than 7 inches,like around 6.50 inches tall! Very disappointing!😒

[@dinobot7025]

If you are getting back into revoltech I recommend the Agent Venom and Moon Knight. Both do a great job at hiding the shoulder joint and are really fun to pose.

[@basicfacekick]

A huge step forward for Revo is a variety of joints and a cloth cape. This looks great. Still not my thing, but great.

[@BrejanaeJacob]

I don’t know that you’d never touch them again lol the intuitive nature of them is really fun once you get the hang of it

[@Southinator1]

if you can get hold of them, either The Flash or Reverse Flash , are really good. Especially for those running poses

[@biospider3.068]

Im with ya on the aesthetic and articualation balance. I think it is definitely character dependent and as of right now i like well articulated figures. But in my adult days i find myself even admiring less articulated items that are very well sculpted. Even some of the 1/6th scale soft goods figures like the threezero rangers and the recent SooSootoys pre-orders. Overall i prefer 1/12 scale and very good articualtion which again should vary i think for different characters. And yes i was very surprised to see you review a revoltech because i figured you'd hate the aesthetic of those lol. I generally do

[@RichardAcevedo2814]

I definitely want articulation. A character like thor should be able to grab his hammer with both hands and hold it out in front of him for instance. I believe this is the only thor that can do that. So while some might say thor doesn't need that much, I disagree. He needs to be able to heave that hammer high over his head like he's about to slam it down. He needs to be able to hit a 3 point pose with the hammer touching the ground, etc.

[@dankmemer2774]

Here's to hoping for an amazing yamaguchi agent venom review.

[@doctorgiovanni853]

A sublimely cracking review on one crazy-looking, roided-up Thor figure, with essentially all the dynamic posability you could ever ask for in an action figure; personally, I appreciate how you are able to manipulate this figure into almost any pose possible - that is quite neat! However, as you so eloquently pointed out, there is a rather pertinent proviso that comes with articulation: aesthetic. Those balls in the shoulders and elbows are aberrantly peculiar, and somewhat distracting to the naked eye. Long story short, be mindful of articulation but not at the expense of the aesthetic. Thank you for sharing, Anthony. Giovanni Marino, M.D.🇬🇧🇮🇹

The cutouts for articulation do look weird but he does look really good just on the shelf but the price is prohibitive for me . Plus i got thor already one and done saves space and money for figs i dont have yet

[@TheMattTrakker]

I have the revoltech Carnage because I think he is one of the few characters where him looking like a broken model kit actually kinda works, but in general I don't like this style of figure. I agree that they need to be more conscious when putting cuts in for articulation. The raising up the arm thing on Thor is probably the best example of this I've seen, as that's a pose that even makes sense for someone like Thor and he just can't do it.

[@JH-uh9zc]

As for that too, its usually there to pop out the eyes...odd this figure doesnt have it though. I only collect MHA from Revoltech and they include that tool to pop out the eyes.

[@rob6912]

Articulation and look have to be perfectly balanced. Ever since I was a kid I could tell when I was holding a good figure. Spiderman for example should be super possible but have some muscle feel to him. Plus they're action figures, I feel like you should be able to do anything you ever wanted to see the character in your hand do.

[@paulrippcord506]

I think the best Revoltech figures are the ones that hide the shoulder ball joints, like I can live with ball joint elbows and knees, I collect Figma after all but the obvious ball joint shoulders stick out way too much for my liking, that’s why I loved the Amazing Yamaguchi Cable, Harley Quinn and Moonknight, they had shoulder pads that hid the ball joints. I know how it sounds, but the shoulders are where your eyes will naturally go when looking at a figure because they form that triangle with the head.

[@FREKKI]

I do typically prefer articulation slightly ahead of aesthetics but these are too broken-up for me. I think if they just used larger balls for their joints it would fix the issue for me. (Edit: I posted this before you said basically the same thing)

[@AnthonysCustoms]

Mhm. The tiny joints in overly large parts is such a weird thing

[@loveanicefigure]

I'd like to hear your thoughts on the furay planet nameless one (samurai rabbit). Got him yesterday and I really like it.

[@AnthonysCustoms]

It looks good. Just not a design I'm especially interested in

[@theflashfan3234]

Definitely think the Flashes are some of the best Revoltech figures out there, perhaps some of the best figures period. The articulation, the accessories and just how comic accurate you can make their poses look is genuinely incredible. They also hide the joints MUCH better than Thor, I think Thor's sheer size and weird proportions makes the articulation stand out a LOT more than usual.

[@JH-uh9zc]

Ive always used BBTS, but two things I hate theyre doing is NRD on figures around $150, and the shipping has gotten terrible. They used UPS, even on the $4 shipping but now they use USPS or DHL. What used to take 2 days to get to my house, now takes almost 2 weeks. Even if I use the more expensive shipping it comes in about 7 days. Still better than Entertainment Earth's 2 week shipping speed and long wait time just to get the figure. Man, do I miss the days before Covid

[@AnthonysCustoms]

I use fedex with bbts for every order

[@JH-uh9zc]

@@AnthonysCustoms Wait really??? For the life of me when I checkout, I dont get the option. Only USPS or DHL. I used to get UPS with them, but now it's just those two options. USPS is what I get for the $10 shipping...

[@AnthonysCustoms]

Maybe it's a location thing. I have all the options available.

[@Megatron118x]

Spider-Man 2.0, Black Panther, and Moon Knight are all amazing figures. Looking forward to AK Batman. Although I agree that they could always keep refining their joints to look better in neutral poses as well as dynamic ones

[@sanchezolivaalfonso9617]

If you want a revoltech that really shines, you should check moonknight or agent venom

[@doctorgiovanni853]

Be mindful of articulation but not at the expense of the aesthetic. Best to look for a balance, a nice happy medium (aka sweet spot).

[@EJaDav]

It’s so refreshing seeing a figure with a cape that isn’t absolutely dogwater. Of course it’s not perfect but it isn’t construction paper haha

[@matthewameel1741]

Articulations over aesthetics. If im concerned om aesthetics than im going to grab a statue or art print or something that is the priority. So much of these figures are made to be a changeable diaorma, if i cant change it into anything i want then im limited. The Amazing Yamaguchi aesthetic isnt for everyone, but thats because of perspectives on whats a priority for you. Im glad i saw your vid cuz i just purchased this guy and wasnt sure if i was gonna have buyers remorse. From what i can tell, ill be really happy. I also saw another youtuber collector say that this is his definitive Thor figure in his complete marvel display.

[@AnthonysCustoms]

Hope you enjoy

[@WillTorbett]

I like the crazy stylized stuff

[@Cooleepable]

Like you, for me it very much depends on the character. This one was a bit too stylized for me, so I passed, plus, I feel I have enough Thors. I'll only get a new one if they make that stupid 90's tank top, open cowl & an absurd amount of belts suit (yes, really, I just kind of love how utterly moronic it looks). And yes, that tool is meant primarily for dislodging difficult pieces like eyes, they just seem to put it in as standard now.

[@crusaderfigures7851]

For saying im mostly an SHF anime collector the AY Thor and Agent Venom are my 2 favorite figures this year and id say the Amazing Yamaguchi line is the best toy line I've seen so far this year

[@deadpoolchimichangas7111]

That looks amazing and fire

[@muradal1]

Check out the revoltech agent venom. It’s phenomenal and they do a fantastic job hiding the joints. I know you’ll be impressed

[@JayWoods483]

Thank you very much for reviewing this product. With the distracting ball's exposed, aesthetics appears to be the trade off for some dynamic posing. The accessories match the offerings other companies such as Mafex can offer. Both your scorings (although I didn't see much cake inspection) are totally agreeable. Personally, I replaced my Marvel Legends 80th ann. Thor with this product. I am a collector that poses a figure (once, twice....ten X's) in the display and leaves it. ML's Thor could not be posed in the position I needed because of the cape and head. Revoltech's Thor could, and did so hiding most of the balls. Again, thanks for your review. I hope the carpets got installed effortlessly. What color did you go with? White? Shag?

[@AnthonysCustoms]

Still waiting on the carpet. Doing some other work first. Painting, plumbing, electrical.

[@mr.fastturk4568]

I recommend you to get Revoltech flash and black panther, but especially Agent Venom ASAP, you won't get the issues you have on this figure

[@arthurchen6464]

For me, it's articulations over aesthetics, but only because I know for a fact that in most of these cases, the minimal gain in aesthetics do not justify the large sacrifices made in articulations. One hill I'll die on is that Revoltech shoulders are infinitely better than your standard disk hinges in ML, at least in concept. Shoulders aren't attached to your torso at the middle of the armpits. But that's what your standard disk hinge gives you. They make the overall shoulders sag unnaturally the second you lift the arms. We're all FINE with it, because that's how action figures have been made since their invention. But then Revoltech made an improvement by making the shoulder joints where the collarbones end, the exact anatomical location of where the human shoulders are supposed to be. They just 9 times out of 10 don't do a good job with the sculpt around the joints, or overengineer it to death. One day a company will figure out the perfect shoulder joint in terms of aesthetics and articulation, building upon the revo shoulders, and that'll be the new standard. THAT SAID. This figure isn't overall executed well enough to be worth getting over any number of ML Thors, imho.

[@juancarlosmarquez7231]

I lean more on the aesthetic vs articulation. But I did enjoy the Revoltech Arkham Knight. As for the weird tool, you are correct, those are for the eye articulation/adjustments. Would you be getting the Revoltech Ninja Gaiden?

[@AnthonysCustoms]

For sure

[@vestedredsox]

If I’m ever on the fence on a figure I look to see if you reviewed it and go based on that

[@AnthonysCustoms]

Happy to help

[@FoxsDumbSeriesMaker]

I think this style of articulation works best for dark colored figures or ones with a lot of detail to help hide the joints. I’d say the Amazing Yamaguchi Black Panther pulls this off better than the Thor figure here.

[@scolioreset]

A good balance is necessary. If I want the aesthetics, I will get a statue. If I want articulations, I would rather buy a robot. I don’t mind gaps if it can be hidden or mostly avoided. I’m not a fan of Revoltech but I can see the appeal. I don’t mind seeing joints like this when it’s a costume or armor. Anytime it’s supposed to be part of the anatomy like the shoulders and elbows (Doom Slayer figma had that problem and so did Guts), it’s an immediate turnoff. Revoltech had the Arkham Knight Catwoman but this time, it was the face plate that turned me off.

[@pewpew1285]

I hope Anthony gets his hands on an AY Arkham Catwoman soon, as I believe it's the best Catwoman on the market

I'll never understand why people complain soooo much with revoltech joints, which are more than functional and mostly anatomically correct, but live happy with ugly, crappy , non functional and anatomically incorrect marvel legends joints. It's like people just like to complain about anything kaiyodo makes. But is ok. I mean, is one of the oldest collectible companies in Japan (revoltech figure existed before figuarts), and they're not going out of business anytime soon. And yes, amazing Yamaguchi is my favorite action figure line.

[@daviid_ee]

[@qqqqqq4352]

it's not as expensive as it sounds. At this very moment, this figure is about $69 at Hobby Genki. That's the retail price of the figure. That's where the company includes R&D, manufacturing, paint, package, accesories and profit. That's the actual figure cost, we can't take BBTS's pricing which includes shipping, customs tax, store profit and then say paint is lacking, or this or that. Then we are judging the figure based on BBTS's shipping cost and tax at customs. It doesnt make any sense, because none of that money went into the figure cost. I understand thats how much it costs for US citizens using their most popular store, but we need context for that price. The figure is $69 and add another 15 for the cheapest shipping and there you have it

[@shinasura777]

@qqqqqq4352 I'm in the UK so even more expens8ve but I also really dislike the aesthetic of the joints. Storm have done far better looking joints with very similar poseability and a similar price

[@enshinir3544]

It would be interesting to see you review the Revoltech Optimus Prime

[@AnthonysCustoms]

Doesn't that one still have the crappy ratchet joints?

[@ShaddowToa]

@@AnthonysCustoms If we are talking about the Amazing Yamaguchi Optimus Prime, he doesn't have any ratchet joint. I can't remember for sure since mine is in storage, but I think the shoulders are more limited than the regular Yamaguchi design due to their engineering. Also, I would recommend the Moon Knight myself, the design lends itself to the Yamaguchi treatment better than Thor I feel. It suffers from most of the same problems, but the design work well to cover them up.

[@AnthonysCustoms]

Oh. I didn't remember a newer op. Just the really old one

Wasn’t expecting a Revoltech, review. I wanted the Arkham Knight batman but couldn't get the pre-order in time. I too value a good balance between articulation and aesthetic. If a terrible looking figure has amazing articulation, it is just a pile of junk that can move well I suppose. This trade off, however, has never really surfaced for me, in so far as Revoltech is concerned (although I know for most people it does) because I seem to like how these look quite a lot. The two exceptions for me would be the old Batman and Spiderman figures, the later of which looks absolutely terrible imo.
