As someone who worked at a few places that had a soda machine I can tell you that Gatorade will eat the paint on your figure, and corn syrup turns into a sludge over time. Just a heads up. ✌🏼

[@turtwig104]

Dude I screamed when he said he put a toy in Gatorade. Just get water and a blue light.

[@Reach008]

I can’t express my excitement for this figure. Chris O Donnell’s Robin was my hero growing up. I just wish they threw him a few bat gadgets

[@5POAFigureReviews]

That's really awesome. I hope you get him soon and that you enjoy him!

[@jarjarlucas3968]

I really want to get a hold of the drugs that Joel Schumacher was on when he thought he could make robin seem cool by having him dry laundry.

[@fabioturbay6346]

That was still alright. The problem for me is that I cannot not look at the camel toe this fig has

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Between this and Lost Boys, I have a feeling Joel Schumacher (RIP) didn't have a firm grasp on what youth are like lol

[@martincris7791]

I was a kid. I did think it was cool and tried to imitate

[@phillipnunes8568]

I was a kid, I am no longer a kid, I still try to imitate.

[@Bongman42088]

*You had me at; "Head."*

[@Robin0928]

Listen, the Nightmare Bat is really nice looking, but I'd have 1000% taken a "Build a Chase Meredian" or "Build a Seal" Wave over the Nightmare Bat that isnt in the movie

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Man even though I already have it, it they released the Batsignal again with Seal I would snap it right up lol

[@Webhead731]

It is in the movie... multiple times.

[@Austroid]

8:11 I'm betting your Jim Carrey Riddler review is going to be pretty fun!

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Gonna do the best I can!

[@rickytoddbotelho9555]

Great job 👍😊

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Thank you!

[@faridrv3889]

12:48 looooool, thanks for laughs, love your vids, man ❤

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Thanks so much!

[@Terminatorfan-2016]

9:38 is how I permanently display my Batman forever Robin figure. It looks so much better.

[@argirisrousis]

Can't wait for your Huntress review, I'm a bit scared to preorder her, never bought a dc multiverse

[@5POAFigureReviews]

I have a good feeling about her!

[@nodriptom]

5POA finally getting a sponsor, W video jason 💪

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Thanks so much! I have something else VERY fun from them I will be showing off soon

[@GraceMiller24]

I really prefer this outfit than the one from Batman and Robin. These are the color's you think of first and for me they are the best.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

I do like the Batman and Robin costume, but I prefer this

[@Limefighter99]

Do the SDCC exclusive review!

[@somarriba333]

Woah! I think the swaps at 11:15 and 12:20 look like they could be a Robin from the Animated Series.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Indeed!

[@OverlordProductions]

Thanks for doing the head swap man really appreciate it again it’s not exact to young justice but it’s a start. Looking forward to getting my Batman forever wave soon though and I would be totally down to see a review of that figure that’s a year old because I just like your videos doesn’t really matter what you’re reviewing them. That’s why I subscribed in the first place great reviews always keep it up man.

[@just2logan24]

I subbed for the same reason

[@5POAFigureReviews]

You're so welcome! Thank you for the kind words

[@faridrv3889]

12:21 i dont care about the character of robin, but wow, this looks sooo gooood

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Yeah, great job on this one apart from the colors

[@Mustafa2sw]

@@5POAFigureReviews was the head fit a problem or no, I'm probably gonna pick up the figure and the head to make a comic tim type figure, also what other heads were a good fit

[@FIDELELIZONDO-zw3oo]

Oh ma god a sponsor that isn't McFarlane Toys.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

I get offers almost daily, but they are never paid offers and they are always things that are wildly inappropriate for the channel, including leaf blowers, sports bras, ceiling fans, and cervical pillows lol just to name a few.

[@FIDELELIZONDO-zw3oo]

They really do just throw anything at youtubers to see what works.

[@theguardian3431]

We need an Alfred review!

[@5POAFigureReviews]

My Batmobile/Alfred set shipped a few days ago, so it's coming!

[@redhanded8367]

Is there any mainstream toy company that consistently gets height/scale right on their action figures? For crying out loud, he’s so much shorter than the B&R Robin.

[@missboozehound]

He truly is a wonder. Not Truly like my drink lol

[@5POAFigureReviews]

A 25 year old Boy Wonder lol

[@MTB214]

I was happy to get this wave. The wired cape is great on this Robin.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

I love that cape so much!

[@toyboxsoapbox]

Great review. I love the wave. Can I ask what the grey diorama backdrop is? I recognise it but just can't think of what it is and it's driving me crazy. 😂

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Sure thing! It's from the gigantic Batcave playset Kenner made for Batman Forever.

[@Webhead731]

The black spines fit more with the aesthetic of the logo. Black background with green. I think it works well.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

True. The original teaser poster for Batman Forever was a black one-sheet with that logo, so it does make sense

[@The_Rage_Kage]

You know what could have made the Bat BaF actually kinda worth it? if the arms were big enough and matched the Man-Bat megafig enough too be swapped over to give Man-Bat open winged arms.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

That would be cool, but I'd also be down for a new, smaller, more manageable Man-Bat with these wings

[@AlphaProto]

That costume was pretty close to the Tim Drake one. Besides the nipples it's a nice representation of the character.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Agreed

[@thebaker525]

Very funny how McF parted out the accessories that Batman got the gadgets and Robin got the extra hands.

[@megagrey]

Being such a big Alien fan, I'd love to know what you thought of Alien Romulus, and if you'll review the 'scorched' xenomorph from NECA. And a Batman I'd like to see you review is Platinum Flash Batfleck.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Regarding Romulus, I loved the sets, atmosphere, and practical effects. It was a beautifully shot film and the sound design was pitch perfect. While I don't think any performance was bad, the actor who played Andy and the actress who played Kay were stand-outs for me. I enjoyed the expansion of the xeno lore, such as the added pupal stage between chestburster and adult. I also loved the use of Zero G and all the facehugger stuff. That said, it relied too heavily on callbacks and recycled lines. I'm also annoyed by just how fast the Alien life cycle is now, but AVP opened that door. Long story short, it is obvious a LOT of love went into that movie, and every cent was on the screen. When it's doing its own thing, it's great. I am very conflicted on the climax, but I'm still thinking about it days later, so it obviously did something right. Not sure if I am going to review the figure because my NECA videos don't usually do well. What did you think?

[@megagrey]

@@5POAFigureReviews I'm just astonished there was finally another Alien film with some OOMPH. 3 was depressingly mid, Resurrection and AvP were good silly fun, AvP Requiem nearly had me physically ill from the dumpster fire fumes, and Prometheus and Covenant were good enough in their own right but I felt lacked that special something. Right out of the gate Romulus strives to recreate that classic atmosphere of terror while adding new dimensions to the mythos, showing another layer of HOW noxious Weyland-Yutani Corp is, and using that to drive the plot and the cast's desperation to eke out a better life. I felt all the new ideas and bits (like the Zero-G and facehugger scenes, plus the looming threat of the station being shredded by a planet's rings was inventive) balanced out all the nods and callbacks. I can understand being hesitant about a NECA Alien video. I'm scratching my head myself as to why my newest video got so few views when I seemed to be on a roll with the last few. But I'd sure like to know if this new one is worth a look, and it'd be a perfect way to talk about the new movie.

[@RealmsofPixelation]

Didn't like the movie much but the action figures are really cool. Honestly, I only care for the first 2 movies with Michael Keaton....and even Batman Returns was pushing it. I don't even recognize the other films at all.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

I didn't see Forever or Batman and Robin until they were on VHS, so I had the toys first, which gives me a bit more nostalgia for these looks than the films themselves. Though Batman Forever has grown on me.

[@poob1082]

Please review the McFarlane digital green arrow if you can find one!

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Believe it or not McFarlane just sent me Green Arrow and Atom, so I will be reviewing them soon.

[@poob1082]

@@5POAFigureReviews thanks so much I really want to see this figure!!!! If you wouldn't mind can you show him next to the marvel select immortal hulk?

[@hellboyrp6115]

I find it funny that this Robin is shorter than the Batman And Robin figure

[@5POAFigureReviews]

I noticed that as well.

[@hellboyrp6115]

@@5POAFigureReviews Maybe an in universe explanation could be that, 97 Robin is older and grew up a bit? I know it's a stretch due to Chris being an adult in both films, but realistically, they probably just used a different mold.

[@migueldobao1707]

Would love to see if the nightmare bat wings would fit or look good on the man bat figure?

[@leebirdwell7783]

The ball joint fits, but the arms are much too thin.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Lee already said it all, but what I will say is I'd love to see if McFarlane to make a new smaller Man-Bat in scale with these wings

[@toyboimaniac1661]

His cod piece isn’t COD PIECING

[@5POAFigureReviews]

How much cod could a cod piece cod if a cod piece could piece cod?

[@renzangeloencisa9190]

hello sir, if I may ask. Which BATMAN Mcfarlane do you suggest for a JLA Grant Morrison build?

[@5POAFigureReviews]

If you check out my VERSUS on JLA vs the Spawn Two Pack, my suggestion is the Spawn two pack version with the Black and Grey Hush head.

[@robinjohnrosales]

D’Artagnan 😂

[@5POAFigureReviews]

I was hoping someone would appreciate the reference lol

[@emphorepolpatinedasenate]

How does this robin scale with rebirth batman

[@5POAFigureReviews]

I did a side by side of them towards the end of the Comparison section

[@emphorepolpatinedasenate]

@@5POAFigureReviews I know I was presumptuous to not see it all the way, my bad

[@edrianraneses5864]

When exactly are you gonna review the Batman Reborn figure next and compare him to Knightfall Bats and Superman Hush, Earth 2 and Page Punchers bucks to be specific?

[@5POAFigureReviews]

First will be a Versus between the Mattel version and the Platinum Edition McFarlane. Probably not this week but the next. Then head swaps the following week or week after.
