Bro Toys "Missionary" Equilibrium Figure Review

[@jimroundsound]

Man, I was so into that movie. So cool to see these figures, especially in comparison to your old custom. They look great on your custom display, too!

[@Ibrahim_M]

Jimmy! Thank you, my dude! Getting these definitely made me want to rewatch it again!

[@luciamorandini]

Thank you. I blindly bought this as well, it's in transit. They look great. And I love your old custom :)

[@Ibrahim_M]

Thank you so much! And you’re welcome. Very glad that I could help to validate your purchase, haha. I was a little worried they’d be the bad kind of 3rd party figure, but overall I think they’re pretty great. Enjoy your figures and thank you for watching this!

[@krymson_reigns]

Man I love this move… You’re the only other person I’ve seen that pick this figure up. I was torn between getting both figures, but opted for just the black suit. I noticed the face on mine is closer to the promotional pic.… thinking about getting another to make Taye Diggs character. Great video

[@Ibrahim_M]

Thank you, bro! Yeah, this figure is pretty excellent. I keep meaning to replace the head with the Manipple version once I get a new Bale for my TDK display, haha. A Taye Diggs figure would be so sick! I'll be on the lookout for it on your IG and here on YT 🙌🏼

[@krymson_reigns]

@@Ibrahim_M appreciate it

Another big, big fan of this movie. These figures came out of nowhere, saw them one day on 5k and I knew I had to pre-order. When I received the ready-to-ship notice, I was just going to back out. So glad I didn't. These really are some nice figures.

[@Ibrahim_M]

Haha, I know what you mean! There's that rush of "I HAVE to have this" when a PO goes up sometimes, and then months later you're like "do I really need this?". I'm glad you got them and that you're happy that you did. They're pretty dope and the white suit is a nice pop on the shelf. Thanks for stopping by🙏🏼!

[@vincenthuang986]

wow nice collection!

[@Ibrahim_M]

Thank you, Vincent!

[@cesarroman9984]

Wow excellent review bro, those figures could be used for a customization of Nolan's batman or so I think. Greetings and thanks for the review.

[@Ibrahim_M]

Thank you, Cesar! I always appreciate your kind words and support, bro! Yeah, you could definitely use the head for a Bruce Wayne!

[@toddscollectibles980]

Hi Ibrahim, like you I love the film!! I was going to get this figure in 1/6 but you need to buy it twice for both looks, never I might still do it sometime. Anyway love the poses you did and they really look cool figure. Correct me if am wrong, but when he had the white outfit on...am sure it had sash to go with it, to hold his swords? Also the handles of the swords were white?

[@Ibrahim_M]

Hello Todd! Thanks very much! And yes, you are correct; he had a sash with a white ceremonial sword when he entered the compound in that final scene. It's quickly stripped away from him though, and then he actually fights with a black one that he takes from a guard. I meant to mention that in the video, but didn't remember until I'd already started uploading it 😂. So as far as the action scene, the black is accurate, but it would have been nice if they included a sash and a white sword. I don't think it would have cost them much more! And I would LOVE to see how you display a set of these in your collection!

[@paulmaynard1384]

I have the twin pack!,been a long time since I've seen the movie!,also liked when you said "Please don't sue us!",pretty sure it would be a case of "You have to find us first! 😆 if you get any more 3rd party figures you should review them,it was a good video,and there aren't always many good 3rd party review videos out there!, thanks 👍🏾

[@Ibrahim_M]

Hey Paul! Thanks so much, man-- I always appreciate your being here. Yessir! I will definitely be reviewing more 3rd party figures. I've got another one that I did some slight mods to that I need to record and put up soon!

[@paulmaynard1384]

@Ibrahim_M Fab!,also don't know if it's on your radar but Muff toys have a partial photo of their prototype Daniel Craig Bond!,& if it turns out half as good as it looks I'll be glad to get it! 😁 just got their version of the Time Controller...Loki...& it's not bad at all!,so fingers crossed! 🤞🏽

[@Ibrahim_M]

@@paulmaynard1384 It is, thank you! I'm bummed because I have a custom 1/12 Bond with "rooted" hair that I made, and I love it, but I know that Muff is going to make something that is next-level, and I'm a HUGE Bond fan, so there's no way I can pass it up, lol. I have their "Metropolis Protector" and their Batfelck head on pre order as well. I can't wait to get them in hand. That Loki and the Battinson head look incredible. Gotta be neck and neck with Nota for the best 1/12 figures on the market today.

[@paulmaynard1384]

​@Ibrahim_M Hi,The pre order for Muff toys Bond is up!,if you haven't seen it yet check it out!...OMG!,i might just order two! 😏😁👍🏾

[@Ibrahim_M]

@@paulmaynard1384 I PO'd it first thing yesterday! Thank you! I have a custom Bond that I made that is very similar and I'm really proud of it, but dang, had to get the Muff version, too, haha.

[@anthonygregori7058]

Oh good for you!

[@Ibrahim_M]

😂😂😂

[@lefty7127]

Expected this video for a long time! Overall, is white suit hs is way better than on black ?

[@Ibrahim_M]

Thanks for watching it! They're actually exactly the same sculpt, on just has a cut on the lip. I think they just painted the eyebrows better on my white version, haha. But I'm curious if they're all like that, or if I just got one that was a bit off.

[@lefty7127]

@@Ibrahim_Mthanks a lot! I like black suit way better, but your remark about eyebrows makes me think about..

[@Ibrahim_M]

@@lefty7127 You're welcome! I think I was just unlucky with the paint on mine, haha. I think they normally look like the white one.

[@emilflognoid1532]

I forgot about that movie...

[@traviswilcox3472]

Very cool movie & I’m glad there are figures made of this character. Would have been great to have had Sean Bean & Taye Diggs additional heads to have them in figure form. I think his blank expression works as he would try to “mask” his emotions in the film, this neutral face can be him doing that ;) Nice Review!

[@Ibrahim_M]

Thank you! That's a great point about the expression, haha. And I lvoe the idea of Sean Bean and Taye Diggs alternate heads. Hopefully they release an accessory pack or something. I'd get another of the black suited version for that, haha.

[@jdsantibanez]

It was a terrible movie, a Fahrenheit 451 rip-off. But it has great fights. I enjoyed it. Stupid fun.

[@Ibrahim_M]

It was certainly inspired by Fahrenheit 451 and I don’t think the writer/director was trying to hide that. One of the things I love about it is how innovative the action was and how stylish the movie is overall. Nobody’s making anything like it these days and it’s over 20 years old.

[@jdsantibanez]

@@Ibrahim_M Actually, the John Wick movies have the gun-fu ways of fighting. Although I liked the movie for what it was, I think they plagiarized Bradbury's novel and did their own story maybe to not pay copyright fees.

[@Ibrahim_M]

@@jdsantibanez Equilibrium's gun-fu walked so that John Wick could run! Haha. I think plagiarism is a bit of a heavier word than is applicable here, but the movie definitely wouldn't exist without the book (much in the same way the gun fights in Wick might not exist without Equilibrium's). What's sad is that it's still relevant today with these crazies trying to ban books all over. I hope somebody makes another one like this soon, frankly. I feel like we need it.
