Dungeons & Dragons Honor Among Thieves Rakor Hasbro Action Figure Review

[@oldschooltommyim]

Black Dragons, abnormally slender in comparison to other dragons, are solitary and extremely territorial. They live in swamps, jungles, and marshlands, their black glossy scales add to their camouflage in these environments. They breathe a stream of acid.

[@TheFwoosh]

Not on my shelf mister!

[@arcturionblade1077]

They also like to "pickle" their meat by letting the corpses/carcasses rot in stagnant swamp water. Yummy.

[@jackrobinson2992]

Well except for Voaraghamanthar, and his secret near always invisible twin Waervaerendor.

[@monsterxenomorphvelocira]

dragons are sci fi, not fantasy,

[@flapjack6495]

the Size and Comparisons was VERY appreciated i rarely see so many comparisons between other figure lines

[@iamniveous5626]

When Hasbro cites the cost of plastic as the reason for the price hikes and then prices a whole ass dragon cheaper than the Gamerverse Spider-Man. SMDH. Lol.

[@Atlas-hu9wk]

To be fair that dragon is almost a statue for $31+.

[@TheRobotAssassin]

Disney/Marvel must have poor Hasbro over a barrel with their licensing fees.

[@Qwertyuiop-lg7ko]

@@Atlas-hu9wk and now it cost less than half of it

[@Robogeek28]

Really hoping to see Hasbro release a large fully articulated dragon like Mattel has done with the Hammond Collection Rexy.

[@VenomSnake00]

I have a feeling we’ll eventually get one, it’s an absolute no brainer!

[@TheZooBoy111]

Well Robo, you’ve convinced me! I had no interest in this line, but after getting Drizzt and Guenhwyvar for a black panther to go with, well, Black Panther, your review has convinced me that I now need a black dragon to go with that dark elf! I’ve always appreciated how you’ve preached the mindset that a fun figure is a fun figure, and that you don’t need to know the property a figure is based on to enjoy it, so thanks for that!

[@tfitzge]

Man, a metallic purple dry brush on that black would look amazing!

[@TheFwoosh]

That's what I'm thinking, just a hint here and there.

[@J_evans94]

I really hope this movie does well and it opens up more D&D figure options going forward. Would love to see the real miniatures scaled up to 6" action figures!

[@heavyarms01h]

I was actually talking to some of my friends who are dungeon masters about how this figure would do as an improvised mini, even though I know he is meant to be in-scale with 6" action figures. Put this figure on the table against your typical 28-30mm player character minis and you suddenly have a Colossal black dragon - definitely an Ancient at least, possibly even a Great Wyrm - and with that articulated jaw, he can even chomp on your poor players when he makes his Bite or Multiattack.

[@L0rdEsedess]

@@heavyarms01h I would to see someone do a RAD Paint Job on that Dragon to Really bring all of the Detail on it.

[@michaelbritt3137]

Great review brother! Nothing more awesome than a cool dragon. I picked this up at my local Walmart for ten bucks today and 3 of the movie figures last week for three a piece! Enjoyed the video!

[@actionfigureguy5842]

I bought this dragon from Walmart to put up against he man and castle grayskull controlled by Beast man. I love it

[@Apophis75]

It's now Sunday at 11am and I'm officially over here like, are we getting a weekly? Ugh, I need my fix! And bam, it just popped up! Thank you so much!

[@Godzillakingofkaiju1]

I love how we finally have a game accurate take on a Black Dragon.

[@manueld59]

Diging these after effects. Thanks Robo 🙏🏼

[@XaoFakeNick]

Thanks for the size comparisons.

[@kevinobill4818]

That’s a nice looking dragon toy but I was expecting a super articulated Dragon figure maybe made from NECA.

[@jayrice9702]

I freaking spit my soda out when I heard the Wompa talking to the Dragon. Lol 😆 Keep up the voiceovers Robo 👍🏾

[@TitularBeast]

Anyone remember the old McFarlane dragons line? Crazy what they were able to put out back then…

[@brainlock72]

He just released another dragon model/LPS. It’s usually in the Walmart “collectors area” of electronics.

[@dennisdevito2829]

Sure do, I collected them back then, I think I may have the whole series

[@seibervideo]

Gave a Like for the Cross-Time Caper mention.

[@Kade340]

BABE WAKE UP FWOOSH UPLOADED!!!!!!

[@petebutler5139]

@2:35 I thought that was Spike from the Gremlins for a second! 😅

[@James_Wade]

Dude, the comparisons you did got me dying in here!🤣😝😜🤪😛 Good stuff brother!

[@paulmacdonald5135]

Love the dragon

[@tsunami1986]

4:18 There we go! That's what I'm here for. The Masterverse comparison. I only care about Masterverse.

[@xeno8484]

Nice, this would work in so many displays.

[@tomtudorweaver1078]

Here I was thinking 'was this something announced that I missed?' but then you mentioned just wandering around and seeing it on the store shelf, which is cool. Over this last month I've been leaning more into that, turning my focus to picking up figures that released last year that I didn't pay much attention to at the time, but now deciding to pick up if I see them in person. It's nice to remove any degree of anticipation or sense of rush that there was with everything releasing all at once at the end of last year, and instead buying figures on the basis of 'that looks cool'.

[@SoftEndy]

It was announced, but only yesterday

[@jamievaughn1485]

If they don't make a cartoon Tiamat then what's the point lol. I don't think these will sell well, but a Tiamat would as it is Iconic.

[@TheFwoosh]

Because it's still a cool looking dragon? That and these D&D lines have only been around a couple of months.

[@jamievaughn1485]

@@TheFwoosh Oh this one is cool for sure. I’m just being jealous cause I’ve wanted a cool Tiamat since I was 10.

[@g3rman1a501]

Hey Robo, do you think this would work ok as a "dragonmount" for 6" scale figures? Or does it seem too small for that?

[@TagartTalking]

YESSSS ROBO TIME!🤩

[@fandompowerpodcast]

This will be the cheapest "Ancient Black Dragon " available for your 25mm gaming miniatures. And no doubt more of these will be sold to gamers than action figure collectors!

[@hard2findtoysllc999]

Good Review! May need to hunt one down... ✌🏽

[@danielbenavidez5052]

Very cool dragon🐉😉.

[@arcturionblade1077]

That is a sweet looking black dragon. The solid clickiness of the parts connections is a nice surprise. So much of Hasbro's stuff these days feels a bit flimsy with questionable plastic and often riddled with QC issues. I might pick this up, especially after studying black dragon artwork and reading up on them a lot for building a pretty sizeable MOC (my own creation) custom black dragon for Lego's Ideas Dungeons & Dragons contest. (Sadly, I didn't get selected but it was fun nonetheless.)

[@theguardian3431]

Sounds like this will be in a future playday!

[@mixedbag3892]

Man I wanna get this. My real only gripe I wish the legs could make a wider stance.

[@cojeda1985]

My inner collector vants to buy now 🔥🔥🔥

[@AlquimiaLoteria]

I think the D&D cartoon figs.. would look great cloose to this great dragon.

[@TheFwoosh]

Yup... 05:52

[@bergurgeirsson6193]

A green paint job and maybe a few mods and it would make an excellent Blackstar dragon 🤔

[@brainlock72]

I knew it reminded me of something, but I couldn’t picture the right rider!

[@The_Barroth]

Wish it had a lot more joints. Something akin to the Mattel Hammond collection

[@jeffmoeller4522]

Nice price point for the size! Though I do wish they would have shot for $50 instead and used the extra $ to tool in more articulation. It's a little static for what's supposed to be a menacing evil dragon. Especially disappointing considering the fantastic articulation they did for both Guenhwyvar and Timber. Ah well.

[@warpfrenzy]

I’ll wait for one with more articulation.

[@matmusada]

I'm a fan of fantasy and this would be an awesome addition to my MOTU collection as I need more creatures. I could see using this as a creature that either Skeletor or Evil Lyn summon.

[@brainlock72]

I was looking at this, mostly for the (bat) wings for a custom, but those tabs look bigger than ML scale head. Forget trying to attach them to a ML torso! I might get this guy on clearance. Grabbed that Battle Cat for $17 tonight after work. (And reconsidered a retro card Palpatine for same this afternoon, saw the two Lando’s I ignored earlier now marked for $9! Palps was still $17, WM app tagged it at $19.99. 🙄) Oh and YES!!! #CrosstimeCaper was my JAM back in the day! I’m still waiting for gold Meggan and Diamond suit Braddock! And RACHEL!!!

[@brianng8350]

Pretty looking dragon. I assume this is from Hasbro since this is from the movie line? I do wish there is a bit more articulation with the legs, neck and tail, but I guess that would increase the price. I’m expecting the movie toys will be in clearance at some point in the future regardless of how the movie does in the box office.

[@MatthewUrso]

How does he eat?

[@NuBahamut]

I'm not a fan of the skinny/thin front arms, thinking about doing some work to swap them. Maybe a JP dino or those BattleCat front limbs... just something to give them a little more volume. Thanks for the vid, great review as always!

[@maxs-lz4pn]

I really hope they reuse the wings on a more articulated body in the future

[@wayneduckett1961]

Hey Robo, Greetings from merry ole England! What’s your views on the second series of the D&D cartoon figures? Eric doesn’t have the blue body….

[@robd1329]

Im also curious to see wave 2 to have a complete cast

[@wayneduckett1961]

@@robd1329 It will be so good to complete the team. These have been long overdue. Thing is, I’m showing my age a bit wanting these! 😆

[@llamadamus]

I'm waiting for this to go on clearance I hid one just in case lol still there so far

[@RoninWerewolf1982]

It looks nice with the 6 inch figures even though it's way too small to be a full grown dragon in comparison.

[@thousandwolves952]

I have an Articulated Icons Hayabusa this will scale goooood..snd is a pulse exclusive too

[@GhostWolfKillerInBlack4]

I love dragons

[@ZetZatar]

This would also fit well with the old D&D figures! Warduke could ride this.

[@Rod-rx5rr]

i love black dragons

[@td3trooper]

Need to have a mandolorian ridding it.

[@simsey1]

think mcfarlane are doing dragons not sure on scale but might be worth alook

[@big-chill9058]

Fun

[@TheFwoosh]

That's the name of the game!

[@MildWill]

It’s nice but I definitely would have paid $10 more for some better leg articulation. As it stands, it’s not so dynamic.

[@brandonknight3527]

Some nice shots would have been size comparison with some Vitruvian HACKS action figures 4 inch scale....to see how they size up next to it.

[@TheFwoosh]

I don't have any 4 inch scale figures.

[@brandonknight3527]

😧😧

[@liopleurodon2000]

If this guy had some more articulation, he'd be perfect

[@TheRobotAssassin]

$35 is fine. I was afraid they were gonna charge $50 for this. Though, I wouldn’t mind a deluxe version if it had more articulation and/or was electronic and had a water squirting gimmick to mimic its acid breath.

[@thmswilliams0]

Bruh, $35 for a gargantuan sized Black Dragon! Not really a tabletop miniature, but an awesome cheap alternative

[@greggiovanni4788]

Man did you compare him with McFarlane figures or did I miss it

[@wayigotitfigured9800]

Looks good, but way too small for an "ancient" chromatic. Figures need to be 1/18th for it to be close to making sense, but it's a cool figure.

[@samuelanderson1862]

I bought this without thinking. I prefer the movie version of figures and wasn't about to spend a whole bunch of money on fin Fang foom so I got this

[@DavidDominguez-zm4bx]

Instructions: Flapy flapy, chompy chompy!! Jajajaja very funny

[@robd1329]

I must be lost but had no idea a D&D movie came out

[@kiltedcripple]

It hasn't yet. Not till March

[@osoalex007]

If you compare this with the McFarlane Avatar banshees the banshees totally win, Hasbro could've done it better....

[@americamgl]

Hmm maybe if it gets down to $20

[@Gigazilla-pm2on]

Hasbro should make a red dragon figure, but not themberchaud the chunky one, just a normal red dragon.

[@pittviscous]

Just passed on this at Walmart the chest on the picture is wider than the skinny figure😩tighten up Hasbro

[@MadDogRyan]

I saw this at Walmart and I’m broke as hell right now so I was sad

[@prophet924]

That’s bigger than I thought. Hmmm

[@Atlas-hu9wk]

Expensive for such limited articulation. Had they gone with maybe 10 points of articulation for $39 it could work.

[@TheFwoosh]

This is 10 points of articulation. Exactly 10 points of articulation.

[@alexvaldez4481]

How does it eat with its horns aimed in front of its mouth? 🤦‍♂️

[@TheFwoosh]

Haha, it's a make believe giant acid spewing flying lizard and that's your takeaway?

[@greggiovanni4788]

DC multiverse I mean, you know can robin ride lol

[@charlockprime]

When I saw it, I thought it looked pretty cool, but the lack of articulation and the weird scale make it an easy pass.

[@GhostWolfKillerInBlack4]

i have to many all monster action figures toys in december 24 2024

[@blahblahpocalyspe8323]

A strange mix between children's toys and collector figure.

[@PaulGaither]

"$35", So $70 in South America. "Walmart exclusive" oh, $140. Okay. Nope.

[@Apophis75]

Gratuitous generic comment!

[@Apophis75]

I like seeing these D&D figures! The old movie made ne so happy all those years ago. I could never find people to get a game going, but maybe one day!

[@CanadianPale]

There's something very parochial about reviewing a dragon of this size and not bringing in a single 1/18th-scale figure for comparison...😏

[@TheFwoosh]

Funny, I'd say there's something very parochial about assuming every collector has 1/18 scale figures, especially when poking one's head in on a channel devoted solely to 1/12 and 1/11 scale.

[@CanadianPale]

@@TheFwoosh my dear fellow, there's no way that that dragon is 1/12-scale. 😂

[@TheFwoosh]

I'm an adult and I'll do what I want, haha!

[@Tcstewie]

This is cool but it's just another hunk of unarticulated plastic. Easy pass for me.

[@gahdzilluh6674]

This looks like one of those cheap knock-off dinosaurs you see in walmart.

[@Ariranhaa]

I have found it for 16 bucks, but passed. It's articulated as a toddler's toy and the plastic is too light. The mouth can't even close properly.

[@TheFwoosh]

BECAUSE ITS A KIDS TOY

[@Entrophonics]

I just got 2 of the retro d&d figs on clearance and they are full of QC issues. I also got one of the movie line figs and I was disappointed in that too. I wanted to collect this line but it just seems cheap and outdated.
