Awesome review ⚡⚡⚡

[@ActionFiggySkinny]

Thank you 🙌

[@ActionFiggySkinny]

CORRECTION: After messing with the Phoenix effect abit more I finally got it to "snap" into place...Still not too happy about it.

[@springwolf84]

I was going to tell ya there is a way to get it to click into place. Took me far too long to figure it out though; it definitely needed instructions (or a better design!).

[@geronimojohnston9261]

When they showed off the figure the first time it looked like they also struggled getting her in there

[@ActionFiggySkinny]

@@springwolf84 yeaah not a big fan of the design

[@DRAGON_NINJA]

The pheonix is supposed to lock in with the two "hooks", but I can definently see how this is slightly problematic without instructions

[@tontoys05]

Wow, the Marvel Legends Jean Grey Phoenix Force figure looks incredible! The detail and paint job are truly impressive. I’m curious about how the articulation and accessories hold up in this release. Did you notice any improvements or changes compared to previous Jean Grey figures? Great review - can’t wait to see more X-Men figures in your collection!

[@ActionFiggySkinny]

Improvement in the torso is what I noticed the most

[@ActionFiggySkinny]

Thank you for watching

[@TreeFiddyProductions-tk3ko]

I really want the flaming phoenix effect for the dark Phoenix with the red costume I have.

[@Hotepsekhemwe]

Nice review! Keep it up! Manicure. Think about it 👍

[@ActionFiggySkinny]

😂😂😂😂 Thanks for watching. I bite my nails out of nervousness due to being a broke youtube toy reviewer.

[@justingovender1672]

Awesome video, thanks for the in-depth review! Just subscribed 🔥🔥🔥

[@ActionFiggySkinny]

Thanks for the sub!

[@nicholascorrin4648]

Thanks for being honest

[@ActionFiggySkinny]

Any time!

@@ActionFiggySkinny also I saw how the other sash fits on

[@nicholascorrin4648]

Take off all head sculpts use a hair dryer or hot water for 2 min then grab and pull the lower waist ball.

[@tomfin-wo5vc]

This was a very helpful review. It only reaffirms my decision to pass on this one. After 23 years of collecting this line, I’m getting burned out on upgrading characters/costumes that I already have. It’s getting to be like consumer electronics. At some point, you just have to be happy with what you have, because there will always be something better coming out. I’ll stick with my Juggernaut wave Phoenix with the TRU exclusive two pack Dark Phoenix “non-evil, windswept hair” head.

[@ActionFiggySkinny]

I feel you bud. I started collecting legends in 2015 when Hasbro was starting to phase out the Toybiz versions. Now I'm going through the pin to pinless upgrade stage.

[@bibbyshibby]

Awesome review brother, I really like the alt head the way the hair flairs out the eye are great. It's overall a nice upgrade. I do think the previous colouring on both phoenix figures felt more premium but the current colours are okay. Some of those tamashi flame effects would also really go well with this figure to really bump up her power look. I assume this means an updated Cyclops will be coming before long then.

[@juleswinnfield616]

Awesome review! Thank you so much for doing these head swaps! Can't wait to get mine 😁

[@ActionFiggySkinny]

@@juleswinnfield616 no problem!

[@Emeraldnite-if7vo]

Appreciate the head swaps! It's so annoying they didn't make the green brighter to match the comics more, but this figure's colors do make a nice companion piece to the 2 pack Dark Phoenix. But now that she's out of the way, I'm hoping an updated Cockrum/Byrne era Cyclops is not far behind!

[@ActionFiggySkinny]

He's definitely on the way. Especially with the suit also making an appearance in X-Men 97. I'd give it Mayne 6 months

[@kwamintaylor4247]

Hell yeah figgy!

[@s2knightryder]

I wish the Phoenix was bigger, or at least a wider wingspan similar to Angels. This is a baby Phoenix 🐦‍🔥

[@ActionFiggySkinny]

It probably would've gone way up in price.

[@springwolf84]

I love the Phoenix effect, I think it looks beautiful! Jean is great too, though I’m not happy with the shade of green either - the previous one was the perfect colour in my opinion.

[@ActionFiggySkinny]

I'm slowly coming around to it but I still got love for the old one.

[@iDontHoldBackWithMyComments]

Awesome review! It only makes sense to compare this Phoenix to other previous releases UNLIKE some other certain youtuber here. The other (first) reviewer didn't make any sense in terms of comparing this to other Marvel Legends. Thanks for doing the head swaps because it makes sense! UNLIKE some other first reviewer of this figure.

[@ActionFiggySkinny]

Glad you liked it!

[@marclesspirit2815]

Nice review! its nice to see the comparison to all phoenix figs and the head swaps😊 i hope you also try human torch in fire base...hehehe

[@ActionFiggySkinny]

@@marclesspirit2815 my next review today I'll devote sometime to Human Torch

[@geronimojohnston9261]

The review was amazing. Can't wait till mine comes? Do you have the Hellfire Black Queen Jean? Cause I would love to see that second head on her

[@ActionFiggySkinny]

I do! But I haven't taken that figure out of the packaging. Perhaps I shall.

[@michaelt.sanford3053]

I ordered 2 of them but I HATE the look of the head sculpt! Jean is supposed to be beautiful & powerful. She looks like Liza Minnelli in the face🤣🤣… I still can’t wait to get it tho! 💯💯💯

[@ActionFiggySkinny]

The "powered up" headsculpt is much nicer in person

[@jamesd.5301]

You said you got this at CMD but what’s CMD?

[@ActionFiggySkinny]

CMDSTORE it's a local toy store.

[@ActionFiggySkinny]

cmdstore.ca or .com

[@Mr767267]

It's really good figure. I am not sure why Hasbro chose that type of torso, instead of something same as the red ones.

[@ActionFiggySkinny]

Updated torso. They wanted her to have the most movement for ab crunches.

[@Mr767267]

@@ActionFiggySkinny I really love the old torso..its looks more seamless on a female buck.

[@timvanboening9432]

She looks great. Did you pay $69.99 to get it early? She’s going for $49.99 on BBTS right now for preorder. Some folks jumped when they mispriced her for $34.99, even. It’s cool you got her soon, but that’s a lot of extra duckers to do so.

[@ActionFiggySkinny]

No. 69.99 is CAD retail price for this figure. My Amazon pre order is the same price.

[@timvanboening9432]

@@ActionFiggySkinnyohhhhhhhhhh! Okay. Makes sense. I’m stoked to get her.

[@TokuAndAnimationNewsNetwork]

The chest emblem is still too big, but my biggest issue is they have legs with sculpted on boot tips only to then go and use legs where they have to paint them on. That kind of kills it for me as they went all out until they got to that little spot and then they just gave up. That's a bummer. I would have had no problem paying $5 more for sculpted boots. I mean, at $50, what's another $5? Other than that little nitpick though, I am stoked for this figure.

[@LosMSR]

The price isn't the best, and ironic since the smile face doesn't work in this case, they could skip that extra head. That will reduce the price.

[@hokagesenju5805]

She doesn't look like Jean at all. She looks more like Mary Jane from Spiderman. I agree with the Paint it should be a lighter green and the sculpt is meh. The Mafex figure is way better and more comic accurate. I won't pay for a figure that doesn't resembles the character. 😢

[@ActionFiggySkinny]

Many artists have taken their liberties in regards to a definitive Jean Grey look. Maybe the sculpture decided to try his own version 🤔

[@jocaalexandru6070]

Put one of the black widow heads on the new phoenix body and after that put phoenix versus thor

[@VinAnrba]

MAN. You paid $70??? Why??? Haha dude its retailing for $50 which is still a lot but better than $70. Also, first day it went for pre-order it was mistakenly for $35 on big bad toy store.

[@ActionFiggySkinny]

that's Canadian dollars 💸. 69.99 plus taxes. 80.

[@handykawara6440]

the old one looks like barbie

[@jameskobegonzalez5228]

Waste of a accessory for a $50 price point. Not worth it

[@mad4charms881]

You put it together wrong!

[@ActionFiggySkinny]

I pointed that out afterwards. Thank you for watching

[@ICEMAN24824]

It's was a pass 60$ naw

[@ActionFiggySkinny]

69.99 Canadian. Probably about 49.99 USD

I just wish the colors and the symbol of the phoenix were exactly like the digital render on the back of the box 😭😭😭 but I need it rn 🫠
