Mafex Iron Man Mark 85 Comparison with SH Figuarts from Avengers Endgame

[@cookedit]

You never waste anytime when it comes to comparisons or head swaps for newly released figures. Keep up the great work.

[@DCSG81]

Thank you my friend!

[@isu596]

Man , MAFEX has been killing it recently with the latest releases. but for real that much money is not worthy if you already own any of the S.H.F. that's just my opinion tho.

[@DCSG81]

You are not entirely wrong but I just couldnt resists the beauty of it.

[@avengerinfinity1450]

Of course, mafex is more cooler than legends and shfiguarts, but the cost is very high almost 200$. If you buy a mafex figure, you have my respect😎👍

[@MarcusEye]

I agree, if you don’t have a SHF- Get the Mafex.Great comparison video. Thanks for sharing !!!.

[@DCSG81]

Thanks for watching, bud!

[@feezysfigures]

Great comparison! I also like how you compare the accessories. Very helpful! Keep up the great work.

[@giobunsoy]

Your laugh on SHF's face likeness every time the topic is brought out. 😂

[@DCSG81]

HAHAHAHAHAHA

[@KnMToyViewsIAMIRONMAN2019]

I'll choose the mafex one

[@DCSG81]

Good choice!

[@theherolegends4361]

I miss out on the pre order of the mafex and I want to get it now but the price is crazy!

[@warrenrohr]

Yeah I believe pre order price is $130 and I think it’s more now

[@DCSG81]

Mafex stuff always go up in price after it got released.

[@soundwave1a]

Great review! 👍👏 Wish Mafex will stop with the shoulder bells attachments. 😆 MK 85, Cap. EG, TDK-Returns.

[@DCSG81]

I hope so too

[@Forza-G7]

I bought the Mafex and man it feels lighter and cheaper than my SHF one 😭😭😭

[@knight_flyer1199]

3:15 looks like the red on the SHF is closer to the movie color.

[@toybonniesfm]

I prefer the paint job on the final battle figuarts, and I kind of like the stylized look more. I think the mafex is the most accurate. Also considering the suit is nanotech, I believe it stretches a bit, so proportions being different makes a bit of sense to me.

[@DCSG81]

Yup, that's true... when he is in the armor, he should be slightly taller.

[@ronbautista3123]

Can you swap the SHF shoulders on the mafex iron man?

[@jamessimpson1548]

Sadly I don’t think so. They seem to be differently engineered preventing you from swapping the shoulders. Even if you were to swap the shoulders it would probably look weird and out of place.

[@warrenrohr]

Excellent question brother I tried and he’s correct it won’t work unfortunately

[@warrenrohr]

I am definitely considering glueing the shoulders down

[@warrenrohr]

I’m really considering super glueing the flapping shoulder pads down on the Mafex Mark 85. I don’t know about you guys but mine constantly fly off the shoulders even when I’m meticulously posing with extra care. It’s actually causing me to not enjoy the figure so if anyone wants to chime in and let me know your thoughts I’d appreciate it!

[@ronbautista3123]

@@warrenrohr I have mine arriving tomorrow from BBTS. Is the joint that holds the pads loose? Maybe add some joint tightener to that and hopefully it would stay down.

[@carp1990]

Nice video, as always :D

[@Nemesis3213]

Can you do a Figuarts 3 stance pose off like you did with these 2 with the six Black Widows?

[@DCSG81]

Yes, I think Black Widow can do the superhero landing pose easily.

[@tangengot456]

what do you think about the upcoming Fantascraft Mk85? so excited for that one, especially since it's just above half the price of the Mafex.

[@epiclvlpurple19]

IMO the Mafex is leagues better that the Shf. I’m so glad I passed on all those shf releases and waited for the Mafex which I feel is the definitive version. The best in 1/12 scale with out question.

[@DCSG81]

Not always I think...

[@hrishikeshsaikia476]

I didn't had any of the three but I picked up 1st shf for 40$...well the accessories are nice on the others but I'm not a photographer ..I just pose it and place it in the display..so the accessories were not that usable for me ..

[@DCSG81]

Yeah the first regular Mark 85 is pretty solid.

[@sunnychen9911]

There is a CS/fantascrafts version coming out. Will you do a compare to the Mafex version?

[@DCSG81]

Sorry, I dont know this other brand...

[@sundoggy1112]

@@DCSG81 Comicave? This fantascraft seems to be a sub company of comicave. They released a Mk 50 that's very cool.

[@DCSG81]

@@sundoggy1112 Ahh I see... do you have any link for the Mk 50?

[@sunnychen9911]

@@DCSG81 kzbin.info/www/bejne/a2OTgWtrndSXb9k They do have a upcoming mk85 soon.

[@cookedit]

@@DCSG81 I have the Comicave/Fantascraft Mark 50. It is a piece of jewelry; the materials, paint and light up. Much better than their Mark 42 which yiu reviewed and similar 43 which I have. It is even more beautiful than my 3Zero Mk43. The Comicave Mk85 is awful though. Shoulder pads are even uglier than the Mafex and the proportions are all wrong.

[@praimfya9476]

When you have to wait 3 years for a figure it SHOULD be miles better or else what is the point of waiting so long.

[@DCSG81]

It is quite close to the actual look in the movie already.

[@ericlwm1989]

can u try to compare with zd toy mk 85? ignore the scale but i want to see colors

[@DCSG81]

Sorry, I didn’t get that iron man

[@TheQuikMix]

SHF just consistently makes their 1/12 figures too short. it's so confusing. Also, those ankles on the SHF are TERRIBLE.

[@DCSG81]

Hahaha.. they wanted more articulation for the feet.

[@ImmortalDraylo]

I feel the mafex look better for sure. But I already got two of SHF so i dont think to get the mafex. That is alway their problem, they come out way later, years after the movie, and people dont get it

[@DCSG81]

Yeah, way too late... but still worthwhile to collect if you have the budget.

[@ROUGEBLOCK]

The Mafex one's weight worries me in the long-term. The RDJ headscultp however is phenomenal and one the main reasons I got him. I've yet to find an Iron Man figure however that impressed me as much as the Tech On Avengers Iron Man from SH Figuarts. That one is a beaut!

[@warrenrohr]

I agree I love the Tech on Iron Man and the Tech on Captain America armor as well. I absolutely love the Mafex but I have to admit the damn shoulder pads are pissing me off! They keep falling off all the time even when I’m trying hard to pose it lol. Overall the colors for paint are gorgeous and it is lighter but if they kept design for shoulders like SHF I don’t mind sacrificing some of the butterfly joints for no shoulder pads

[@DCSG81]

Yeah the shoulder thing is a little pain in the a**

[@ROUGEBLOCK]

@@warrenrohr I know it's like both the SHF and Mafex versions have a ton going for them, so no matter what you're gonna get a good figure but it's little things here and there. The shoulder thing just caused me to take it off and put the Mafex one in a ridiculous dancing position,while the SHF is just firing all his beams. My Mafex right leg was loose however, so I tried the freezer trick but I'm gonna have to buy the pledge floor polish eventually to fix it proper.

[@warrenrohr]

@@ROUGEBLOCK I honestly can’t enjoy the figure posing it up without the damn shoulder pads flying off even if meticulously handled with care it sucks and drains the joy outta me lol! I have the loose leg issue as well. Fwoosh review also had same problems as well. I love the figure but the flying off shoulder pads truly drives me nuts 😜 I’m gonna try a few things before giving up and glueing it down and I’ll definitely share what I did if I find a solution for it. Please do same fellas lol

[@warrenrohr]

@@ROUGEBLOCK I highly recommend the SHF Tech on Captain America figure. It’s super cool and loads of fun!

[@jed_arts9933]

can you do iron man mafex swap head and forearm (nota)

[@DCSG81]

Yeah, head swap is coming soon

[@td41031]

Mafex are doing better and better job in making figure. Their releases are so great and accurate to the movie, especially the headsculpt.

[@DCSG81]

Yeah I’m so shock the Tony head looks so good!

[@Michaelengelmann]

Only Iron Man I have is the I Am Iron Man. Sad it didn’t come with the usual accessories. Broke the lightning on the glove 😢 & lost a couple other pieces 😭

[@gamebond6248]

Mafex. The only issue I have with mafex are the weird stiff shoulder pad. It just has way better and accurate proportions and paint compared to SH. Overall SH looks like a toy whereas Mafex genuinely looks like a figure.

[@DCSG81]

Hahahaha... SHF is good in term of articulations and material being used.

[@gamebond6248]

@@DCSG81 sure is but the sacrifice of proportions for articulation is not worth it imo. As for the materials sure but it doesn't really does a good job of showing it. A cheap ZD toys figure has better look compared to it. I guess it's all about paintwork.
