Marvel Legends DEADPOOL Legacy Collection MCU Action Figure Review

[@KeeperPlus]

If the pins were painted it wouldn't bother me. When we get a spiderman and there's a big red peg on the blue it's annoying.

[@id0licious]

Yeah painting the pins where appropriate is important.

[@troubledturtle2332]

I have the same complaint about pinned joints .

[@ohnoezitsjoez]

Hearing you talk about the ball pegs in the head and the joint pins makes me want a technical breakdown of action figure mechanics from you. Where you would take them apart, compare and contrast various joint/hinge/articulation designs, and explain all that. Not that I'd want to add to your workload but damn that would be so interesting to me.

[@graefx]

He's had a couple in regard to his own figure line.

[@id0licious]

This is, so far, the definitive Deadpool fig to me. And DP is drawn differently in different comics so he can be fudged in to a comic display as well if that suits someone's fancy, IMO. No pun intended...😁

[@tyestancil2783]

Agreed!

[@cmflynn75]

I mean to be fair, all the action poses at the end have the pins sticking out like a sore thumb. Pinless is definitely better, they just need to do a better job paying attention to the details like matching colors

[@cmbrock1]

Some people pose their figures in action not just in vanilla so the pins will definitely show especially if you’re taking photos you want it to look as seamless as possible. Which is also one of the reasons why cloth on figures are liked because it looks even more seamless when you articulate them even though it could be more hindered. Hasbro figures mostly aren’t made with maxim range anyway so it’s about the same regarding that.

[@lotograves]

i genuinely feel like not expecting seams/cuts/pins in a action figure is a odd thing. without those you might as well just have statues

[@cmbrock1]

@@lotograves it’s called evolving. I know people don’t like change but it’s inevitable. A lot of people have been wanting pinless/seamless figures for a long time obviously or the toy companies wouldn’t have made the change.

[@andrewmpc96]

The pins never bother me because they're toys. And I like to collect toys, so I expect there to be pins.

[@ryantheanimator1156]

At first I didn't care much about pin or no pin, but I realized most old Marvel Legends with pins are likely to have their limbs warped straight from the package, but the pinless joints are less likely to warp and more secured than pinned joints.

[@bonslurpenstein]

My experience so far has been my pinned ML figures sag in the knees and the ones without the pins seem to be straighter. Mixed bag with some pinless joints being too loose but have been able to fix that.

[@nhyar]

Nah, it's the same thing. Spiral was pinless with a new mold and was gummy and heck, can't pose on her own and her limbs can warp easily.

[@_gelato.god_4265]

I have the first release and I can honestly say this is a must have for all collectors the figure is so fun to pose around and they give you so many options to work with

[@doccavs723]

Hey Anthony, great honest review as always. If it's alright, can you explain why pinless joints would wear out faster than pinned joints? Though pinned or pinless does not really bother me that much, I would still personally prefer pinless because it is aesthetically pleasing (especially if the figure has multi colored limbs like Spider-man), and makes the joints more firm especially on the knee area. In my observation of my pinless figures, they don't tend to become bow legged compared to pinned figures especially female figures. Thanks!

[@AnthonysCustoms]

I'll do a video on it eventually. The reason the pinned figures get wobbly is have uses flexible pvc. It either needs to be hard pvc or color matched hard plastic... Preferably nylon or pom

[@williamdavis5256]

I think this is probably one of hasbros best sculpts in the past few years, I know its pretty much a single release of the one that came in the 2-pack but its still great and honestly better than what hasbro has been releasing as of recent.

[@gloving4hire]

Yo! I got mine from BBTS on Thursday! I was so excited to finally have a movie Deadpool to add to my Legends collection! I had him on pre-order since April 19th. And this past Thursday is when I received him in the mail! Enjoy yours man!

[@Saiyan1229]

In my experience ive found the pin joints to wear out faster than the pinless so idk. Literally as ive been playing with this deadpool the knees got loose before the elbows

[@LosMSR]

I don't like abominations like Cable or Forge, in the case of Forge one leg is pinless, the other isn't, in the case of Cable one arm is pinless,the other isn't, that's the big nonsense, and on females, they need to be pinless all the time, that's just a thing of stability. In this Deadpool, I don't care, there is a good balance of everything.

[@breenun855]

Ryan Reynolds is 6'2

[@QuantumSurge64]

I already own the previous Deadpool release with Negasonic Teenage Warhead, and I love it even to this day. Also, IDC if an action figure has pins or not, even if sometimes it can be distracting like on Spider-Man. Also my friend and I are planning to see Deadpool and Wolverine.

[@emavaz18]

I get the general consensus about pinless joints. I just don't agree. I rather have the exposed pins so it'll be easier to customize. Plus, pin joints been better than pinless joints,v and are easier to troubleshoot.

[@karlluigi1987]

I have the SHF Deadpool 2 figure, but I still want to buy this one, since I really hate the torso articulation the SHF

[@thedailydude2]

The neck drives me crazy on this mold. The square in the middle of the neck is supposed to go on the back to cover the zipper of the suit. Why haven’t they fixed it still?

[@crashfellow82]

This is my favourite marvel legend this year. Looks amazing, tons of accessories, moves extremely well, and just felt good value.

[@drecolizo1]

I've had some pinless figures for years now and the discoloration seems to be an issue unique to Marvel legends. Idk what "both done correctly means but, my Joes are showing no signs of ware, same across board for the other brands in my collection. I don't see a benefit to reverting. Especially as the pinless tech gets better over time.

[@tylerhendersonjr6587]

Definitely Excited Deadpool & Wolverine

[@DrDoritosRMLG]

So i have the Amazing Yamaguchi Deadpool, would you recommend me buying this figure?

[@cameronmorrison369]

Yes its great

[@CaptainShamrock]

This and the Legacy Wolverine are the only movie figures I bought. All my Marvel Legends are comic based only, so that tells you something.

[@tatt4music]

I have plenty of pinless figures with great articulation. The look is certainly better. Especially for us toy photographers. Never had a figure ruined by pinless joints. It’s my preference

[@rickjames2193]

The pistols on mine (2 pack!) Were a shot to get out!, pinless elbows on original, black on thighs never went all the way down!

[@happyabbyarts]

Can confirm the og release is a super fun figure, it's one of those I know I won't ever get rid off.

[@happyabbyarts]

Although I do remembet they glued in the guns in the holsers and you had to heatem up to remove them. So this release is better for that alone

[@metamorphomisk]

Yes pins bother me when I photograph them. And people do photograph their figures from different angles

[@smithbeentrill]

In my opinion I prefer pinless joints because my pinned joints warp and become gummy

[@HistorySkate]

He just complains. Idk why he said pinless will go loose before the pinned. 100% of my figures with loose jointed are pinned. I have zero figures with loose joints that have pinless. Idk what he’s goin on about

[@AnthonysCustoms]

The pins have nothing to do with the "gummy" joints. That comes down to the plastic used for the joint. Pinless joints (the way hasbro does them) wear out because they are insert molded. That's no force from the sides. The only thing retaining the joint is notches on the edge of the disc which is hard plastic. When that hard plastic wears away the softer pvc, the joint is useless. That's also why the joints are usually stuck initially. With pinned joints, you can make the notches as small as you want and apply force from the sides. Maybe instead of saying I'm just complaining because you don't know something, consider that I do know someone. I've disassemble and worked on hundreds of figures, reviewed thousands, and designed my own line. I have first hand knowledge about how various joints work and which plastics are best for different applications. Can you tell me the benefits of nylon over pom? Or the best type of nylon to use for joints? Do you know the difference between nylon 6 and nylon 66? Which would be better for joints?

[@avengerslevelthreat8099]

I just ordered this figure and u can’t wait I started collecting marvel legends figures in 2021 of May so I missed out on getting a deadpool

[@Emeraldnite-if7vo]

I completely agree this is one of Hasbro's best ML figures ever. I was happy to have this as my sole movie Deadpool figure for awhile before Figuarts offered their updated version. I'm sure they will release an updated version down the road that matches his look in DandW, and when they do I would be more than happy if they kept most of the build from this figure as the template.

[@shauntothemaxx5639]

QotD: First two were amazing. Very much looking forward to this one.

[@goose1752]

I like the look of pinless joints but don’t care for them, prefer them but I don’t mind pins both are ok

[@prescribeddrone]

Deadpool 3 is a dream movie besides Spidey/Deadpool. The original was half pin less too. This is one of my fave ML's of all time. I own 3 of the original, the Amazon version and got this in box for now.

[@tha_tguy_]

I don't mind pins so long as they're non-intrusive. The pins on the MVC2 Cable bother me enough because Hasbro couldn't be bothered to go all the way. The pins on Darwin are too big and hollow, while the pins on the Diamond Select Cap are small and flushed. You may be right that they're hardly noticeable looking from the front, but in many displays/photos, poses take on different angles. It's kind of like the double ball peg vs disk hinge for the neck POA argument. One is superior (pinless), but it's just that companies can't be bothered to implement them correctly, so the alternative looks more appealing.

[@sethquigley5136]

In my experience pinned joints vs pinless only bugs me if the pins aren’t painted on a character with two tone arms/legs where the color is different on each side of the limb.

[@jimwheeler9840]

I prefer pinless pins. Best of both worlds. Seriously, it depends on the figure.

[@plasticweapon]

pinless pins...?

[@horsiememmo]

Pinless joints are always better. I dont have a singled pinless figure that’s gummy at the elbows/knees. Can’t say the same for pinned joints

[@lancefromohio]

I don't often ask for a favor from ya. But I would love to have a video from you covering the following: This is the first I heard of this rerelease happening. I admittedly haven't been paying attention. Because... It's already sold out everywhere. I know that volume of plastic pumped through the molds are the profit margin. So how the fuck are all these companies doing basic figures as limited releases??!!?? Aren't they leaving BIG money on the table. Figures going to clearance hurts the retailer. You would think the manufacturer would be flooding the zone with as many as possible. Honestly, I'm looking at Todd while typing this, but even hasbro is under-producing at this point. Would love your editorial on this state of the industry.

[@bryanmarcia4104]

I'm gonna give the movie a fair chance since is deadpool even though Disney has dropped the ball with both Marvel and Star Wars.

[@FREKKI]

I was happy to get another 4 of these in a slightly different color but that’s because I’m a huge Deadpool mark.

[@edvincarpio127]

I'd rather they engineer the pinless joints in a way similar to mafex or figuarts. But for that reason I just buy those figures instead and cherry pick hasbro figures whenever they put out something kind of passable for the price.

[@zenquantum1246]

QotD: the movie is aiming to pivot both the universe away and audience expectations. The whole “I am Marvel Jesus” line plays for both the movie’s adventure and the fact that Disney needs Ryan and Hugh to pull off a “clean up in aisle (phase) five”

[@theguardian3431]

I'm on team pinless joints!

[@jasonpatchen1912]

i got the first release his ankle are wierd and his bandalear gets caught up

[@sithlord757]

Is it just me or does it feel like they put more love into movie figures lol I feel like this Deadpool and the Wolverine are some of their best stuff

[@tyestancil2783]

The budget is bigger, hence the texturing.

[@sithlord757]

@@tyestancil2783 these are pretty much the same figures that came out a few years ago tho

[@tyestancil2783]

@sithlord757 minus the pinless arms it's the exact figure. But movie figs in general have a slightly bigger budget, I assume, because there is more details, like texturing and sculpting, ie Spider-Man web lines on the suit.

[@adonismimon9124]

Aesthetically I don’t really care if my marvel legends are pinless or not (I would mind the pins more on high end figures), but the reason I prefer the pinless joints is because the legs don’t get warped so easily now. It sucks that most of the my MCU figures have warped legs now☹️ I do think they have to solve the discoloration issue on the elbows and knees though, like, it’s such a basic thing on a figure. Oh and yeah, the original Deadpool did have pinless arms, it was one of the first figures in the line to get that “new technology”

[@NECROMAGICIAN666]

i feel like the pinless joints as done in the movie figres now are more sturdy, every pinned joint i have are gummy and not that durable while the only pinless one i have is incredibly solid and i don't know why

[@KGCMX]

0:49 I feel a bit let down after you said "I want to give you a quick look at my package" and all we got was a stupid empty action figure box.

[@JohnDoe-lt3hi]

Yea. Guess you can mod the neck by drilling a slit on the back to allow for more movement. Hasbro still can’t figure out neck articulation (or proper usage butterfly joints)

[@antonwibisono3798]

Pinless joints, in terms of aesthetics, rules. Nuff said.

[@rickjames2193]

How is your figure range going?

[@jasonpatchen1912]

[@AlphaProto]

The movie may be decent, but I stopped paying money to watch Disney movies after End Game.

[@THANATOS-PRIME]

I got this figure and had some of the worst. QC I think I’ve ever had on a marvel legends figure. My eyes were printed on wrong, so they constantly looked to the left, which was a mild annoyance, but the back of my head was molded wrong. I’m hoping I can snag another one, but given how popular Deadpool is, I think it’s gonna be sadly unlikely.

[@Ohmug3nW3apon13]

For me, I like them pinless cuz it doesn’t give that rubbery leg

[@JasonVoorheesUnstoppable]

He had pinnless arms before I believe

[@ingloriousmax]

Are you on the pinless joints so much because your line won't have them? Like christ man, its innovation. Its really odd to have someone who is going to create his own figure try to stay in the past. Pinless looks better the end its not so difficult to understand. If it fucks with the engineer then get better at engineering it? Jada, Mafex, even Hasbro can and does pinless figures just fine so get with it, its not 2014 anymore.

[@chewymew]

Lol, you talk as if pinless joints are some new tech. Hasbro's been doing pinless joints on GI Joe since at least 1996. Hasbro has had pinless wrists, ankles, shoulders, and hips - and elbows occasionally - since 2007. Pinless is not a new thing, Hasbro has just decided to use it on elbows and knees now. It's not something new, it's just a thing.

[@ingloriousmax]

@@chewymew paint and deco used to be better before. But sculpts also looked like shit before. They’re making the best figures by far currently and pinless looks better, you don’t need to pretend to attempt to glaze.

The pins can look very ugly & distracting if they don’t color match in the proper area. I pose my figs in different positions not just facing forward. I would like the joints to last & not wear out, so it’s a toss up as to what’s best.. the look or function (?)

[@jamessnow8512]

I liked the pinless joints before, but with each figure that I get and have to break them in, I like them less and less. I have a few figures where the joints feel brittle and are somewhat loose. I would much prefer a peg and a plug to hide the joints, but I understand that's asking a lot on such small figures. I do want this Deadpool though, even if I have the original. I like the brighter red, but then I could just not be lazy and paint my older figure.

[@lmeadors7155]

I let out a loud “what??” When he said pinned joints are superior functionally that’s honestly not true. In my experience pinned joints are more soft and gummy, pinless is higher quality.

[@AnthonysCustoms]

Pins don’t really matter. For this figure there’s texturing on the suit that makes the pins not match, but it’s such a busy design that it’s fine. Nobody gripes to Mcfarlane about their pins. For this figure I have the original and I’m not picking it up since it’s a repaint, but I’m glad Hasbro is giving people a chance at it again (again again with the burned repaint)

[@wxrldxfslym7755]

I think pinless joints became such a "thing" because Legends diehards (who refuse to save money on 2 or 3 Hasbro figures to opt for the import version) equate pinless to import quality, ignoring the fact that import elbows and knees have completely different engineering.

[@Rebelxstudios]

I personally don't care much for pinless, because I'm a customizer. And being able to swap some of these figures at the forearms and the knees actually helped out with some of the proportion issues that these Marvel Legends figures tend to have

[@thegoldenmolar]

for customized functionally, sure. but for the regular collector they just stick out like a sore thumb, especially if the pins don’t match the rest of the figure. i actually import basically all of my figures and the only legends i have us the amazing fantasy spider-man. pinless, sculpted beautifully and tons of range of motion
