0:55 "She comes up to his uh, his w-waist...let's go with WAIST.."

[@mapusaurus1057]

No biceps swivel on Darkseid is really a let down, you cannot even get him into his iconic hands-behind-back pose.

[@wertyda1]

That darkseid looks like a great base for an apocalypse customs. Just add a bicep swivel

[@realUlfricStormcloak]

Lol talk about a power nerf. 🤓

[@Garrus493]

Though I'm sure others have and will say it, Grail is Darkseid's and an Amazon's daughter, born at very nearly the same time as Wonder Woman. She is working for the Anti-Monitor (who is revealed to be Mobius, the original owner of Metron's chair) to kill her father.

[@tgonzalez1983]

How the hell did Darkseid get in on with an amazon is whats the real question.. Grail is the size on his leg!

[@FireBomberBassist]

Just read this. :) pretty cool.

[@jimmymcnulty9189]

We are many You are but one micro penis, his dick size was 6 inch which was micropenis for him but normal for human beings.

[@tgonzalez1983]

hahaha

[@theleftisttimemachine8196]

I love this DC icons set! I have my Darkseid on my shelf in a cool pose where he is holding my DC Icons Mr. miracle in his open hand, then I have Grail down below them with her axe to Green Lantern's neck. A really badass setup!

[@lorettanelson82]

That sounds Epic!!

[@DwayneTheGeek]

Grail is Darkseid's daughter. And Darkseid is practically in scale, he is supposed to be a huge guy. This is his second version by DC Collectibles.

[@humanitywasamistake8233]

Dwayne The Geek he said it was the first dc collectibles made No

[@theepoopydoodoo]

Christyan Mannequin this is not the first DC Collectibles Darkseid. It is the first highly articulated one.

[@graefx]

I go back and forth on the torso joints with Icons. I really like the idea on paper, but in practice it never quite seems to get there and that might be just because of what I'm use to with ML. I really like the crunch being low as possible but I cant imagine that's easy to combine with a waist swivel on a budget domestic figure. Still, I'm really liking how the Icons line is developing, a little upscaling and added/improved articulation. I'm glad I passed on the early stuff but I'm starting to grab things now.

[@lcidcrescentfernandez9853]

I hope you loving this 2-pack will bring more DC Icons reviews!

[@randomers7870]

Grail Is Darkseid's Daughter, She Is half Amazonian And Stronger Than Wonderwoman

[@nave123ification]

Grail is the daughter of darkseid with an Amazonian mother

[@rogerbaker4531]

I really hope and wish that Todd McFarlane would make a DC MULTIVERSE 7 inch action figure out of Grail the daughter of Darkseid. Todd can her look exactly like the 6" Grail that's being seen there on the video. The exact same accessories that she comes with in the video. But as a DC MULTIVERSE 7 inch action figure by McFarlane Toys. I think that'll be pretty cool. Because Todd already recently made a DC Classic Darkseid Mega Fig from McFarlane Toys. So all he needs to do is make a Grail figure as well.

[@skabcat242]

Grail is cool but I had no idea Darksied was that huge. I saw the early prototype pic last year of him and he seems bigger.

[@TheWarchiefZekeJaeger]

Grail's mother is busted after Darkseid gave her the Omega. I hope we get to see Grail more often in the DC comics,she was cool in Darkseid War.

[@Novapoid]

That female character is one of the best US figures I've seen in a while in the "reasonable price" range; it reminded me slightly of a couple of medicos' SAS (JoJo line has had a couple of fimale figures) regarding sculpt, articulation and the use of soft plastic. Hopefully the line keeps getting better 'cause I'd be interested in getting a couple of DC characters if they continue like this.

[@theepoopydoodoo]

Great 2-pack, my Grail's torso doesn't pop off btw might just be yours.

[@adameckenrode2925]

Ive seen your customs. You should have no problem adding a custom bicep

[@EdsterIII]

This is an awesome 2 pack. And subscribe. The videos are so worth it if your an avid collector like me that doesnt get a lot of DC Icons or specialty figures at my stores. This helps me to NOT have to order blind. I get not only a look at the figure but also the articulation. Anthony's Customs does a great job with this and always has the newest and most straight up review. Also Darkseid looks amazing. Love the size difference. Haven't seen a villian that huge since Toy Biz Galactus or Apocalypse. Would love to get him and have a giant DC villian. The figure set it pricey. Close to $100 if I'm not mistaken. But it looks to be worth it. Just got my SH Figuart Phasma and Luke Ep.IV is on the way. Cant wait. Great work and KEEP COLLECTING.

[@yospiderz1574]

Today is my birthday

[@picklejay7822]

Happy Birthday dude

[@jorgedontola092]

This is the New 52 version of Darkseid, and yeah, in this version he is that massive.

[@DwayneTheGeek]

I love this two-pack! I'm definitely buying it.

[@AnthonysCustoms]

nice

[@chrisreager2614]

I’m not a huge fan of DC but man these are awesome figures! Great review bud

[@mangmiketeamtaiaha7256]

What you think is better this darkseid or DC Darkseid deluxe?

[@Sgontzos1989]

A baby darkseid accessory would be nice but overall an amazing two-pack!

[@raidenkeify]

I would have traded the torso articulation for the bicep swivel

[@Newjourney14]

don't like that version of darkseid, happy i waited for the storm collectibles version.

[@demjot2967]

This is new 52 darkseid so he is supposed to be that huge, the scale is nearly perfect for that version That also doesn't mean they can't release a more classic darkseid that is smaller

[@davidberry2620]

holy shit I didn't even see the ab crunch lol

[@thetacticalnerdist7865]

Looks like a awesome 2pack thanks for reviewing it

[@Godzilla2000X]

To clear up the confusion. He is actually suppose to be that big. Anyone who has read the Darkseid War that had Darkseid vs. the Anti Monitor know this is how big he was.

[@battalion227]

Grail is darkseids daughter and also a amazon which is why she is also not massive

[@keithellingtonll1680]

Grail is Darkseid’s daughter

[@FireBomberBassist]

How to make Darkside appear even stronger? Make him bigger.

[@GoliathAngelus]

Very beautiful Grail figure. Like the Darkseid but a bit too big

[@jaredleeroy6039]

Thats how big datkseid is tho

[@jboypacman]

Very nice looking 2 figure set and might be worth hunting down as after seeing this review am impressed with it

[@AnthonysCustoms]

go for it

[@SternSupremacy]

I hope I'm not asking a question you have already answered, but are you finished with Play Arts Kai figures? They began doing a lot of Final Fantasy figures, and aesthetically [from photos] they look amazing! I got Gabranth [12] today and I preordered Squall, Cloud, Sephiroth and Barret. [Still need a legitimate Zidane figure :'( ]

[@AnthonysCustoms]

ill be getting a few upcoming ones to review.

[@kostasrgts2526]

Is the cape on Grail soft material? Does it limit the articulation on the hands?

[@davidmarrero9608]

It's a soft plastic cape it doesn't limit any articulation much.

[@adejonavi]

if grail wasnt so good, then the bicep swivel issue on Darkseid would've probably killed the 2-pack for me

[@AnthonysCustoms]

+Ivan Ojeda yep

[@037L3O]

would it look better without the shoulder pads?

[@JTpopCULT]

I have this set and it's OK IMO. I would probably be happier with it if the price point was lower.

[@AnthonysCustoms]

that's true of most things, but the price is reflective of the fact that it comes with giant darkseid. consider youre paying at least 20 for grail. that means the giant darkseid is only 60. not too bad compared to past dcc big guys.

[@jvo6ixgod269]

The most I’ve heard anthony compliment a figure bought it today

[@AnthonysCustoms]

You should watch more reviews

[@buggy574]

I love how you go into every detail Anthony keep up the remarkable work

[@AnthonysCustoms]

thanks a lot

[@michaelanthony5855]

Darkseid looks like Michael Ironside.

[@Ahhhhhhhh_hhfhsjjd]

Grail is the daughter of Darkseid

[@tgonzalez1983]

Good review dude.. Do you ever show the box or pricing? Kinda looks like youll be getting a huge box in the mail if you order something like this.. Maybe some cool artwork too.. This looks like a really cool set.. Not into collecting DC figures but very nice combo..

[@AnthonysCustoms]

i do when the box is meant to be kept or is especially nice. this box is just a big white box with a window on the front. and with both figures. there was no room for it.

[@tgonzalez1983]

I get ya.. Nothing special then im assuming.. That Grail looks really BA even though i know nothing about her.. Keep up the good work

[@AnthonysCustoms]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/rme6d6ytpM6hrtUm19s

[@davidmarrero9608]

You can also just look it up on google aswell it just looks like all Dc Icon Boxes just slighter bigger. The color on it is blue or purple and just have the omega symbol on top of it and back shows the photo of the figures and the other deluxe pack being Batgirl.

[@tgonzalez1983]

I did.. Nothing special.. I thought maybe some cool artwork or something but nope

[@Magikknight76]

Awesome review of a great set. Thanks Anthony...

[@imbatman3696]

This GRAIL figure is better than any female Marvel Legends figure... mostly because of articulation

[@mistek3964]

Hey, what kind of video camera do you use for your reviews?

[@supersonnyshow2020]

Can't wait to get this figure amazing. Great review Anthony!!!

[@AmosHtv]

Hey great review man, I hope to sculpt more figures and statues for DC in 2020.

[@AnthonysCustoms]

You sculpted these?

[@peapool5420]

Anthony are you going to get the new armored Batman 2 pack from this line?

[@AnthonysCustoms]

i didnt know that was a thing. link?

[@jayman8752]

no bicep swivel... wth

[@NiceGuyVsAsshole]

Grailis the perfect height lol nice work

[@claytonium4789]

I'd rather it pop off than break

[@AlkQubit]

So much better than the new Mezco.

[@Wortwort-Spooderbat]

Alkaline not even close. The mezco has better art and light up eyes. Gracile is great though

[@peterquill3589]

grail is darksied daughter

[@chrisalvarez8982]

Do you plan on getting the batgirl and the motorcycle deluxe pack in this wave?

[@AnthonysCustoms]

not sure

[@shaysela6989]

Grail is Darkseid's daughter. That's all you need to know

[@ajtube6639]

are you going to do a collection update anytime soon?

[@haochiehlee4304]

thanks for the review? Will you do the review for shf Amazon Alfa?

[@AnthonysCustoms]

no clue what that is

[@haochiehlee4304]

Oops sorry is the s.h.figuarts Kamen rider Amazon Alfa

[@AnthonysCustoms]

im not familiar

[@SlushMowerThe3rd]

how tall is Grail?

[@MrLee-qz3gy]

Geez Darksied too big, he aint Galactus tho.

[@imfraser_]

grail is darkseids daughter in justice league new 52 darkseid war

[@analslingshot6654]

no bicep swivel kinda made me mad

[@jackadam6784]

DARKSEID AND FURY'S DAUGHTER

[@MisterSouji]

Get batgirl

[@davidberry2620]

dammit I was hoping for the legends reviews lol I stayed up till midnight for nothing. But I'll watch lol

[@k.bermejo7334]

Loolll

[@mattronimus]

someone show this to hasbro so they learn how to put an ab crunch on a female figure.

[@buggy574]

no thank you

[@wallahmarang1781]

icons have to be one of the worst toy lines i have seen the batman i have just snaps apart with the slightest pressure or when you try to move it and the same esact thing happened to the replacement. so far every dc icons figure i have gotten is a waste of money as they are expremely brittle. hopefully dc can up their game

[@AnthonysCustoms]

havent has a single one break...

[@wallahmarang1781]

AnthonysCustoms i must be cursed haha

[@wallahmarang1781]

and i just realized someones changed my username great

[@AnthonysCustoms]

...suuuuuure ;) someone changed it lol

[@j.boogie7639]

I'm sorry to say that while the sculpt and articulation is great , the costume is just ugly and tacky. From the yellow to the pink belt buckle, this just looks like a costume that you would see in a art instruction book on how to create comic characters.
