@PixelDan, props to asking questions in a way that balances asking hard q’s that us fans want to know in a friendly way. Been awesome to see your interviews over the years - now ask Brian about better torso articulation!

@@megagrey Never gonna happen ! His motto is that we the consumers don't need double jointed figures because unless you're a toy photographer, you don't need to roll them up in a ball !

Won't lie, this has been one of the most entertaining SDCC videos, mostly for Shartimus, Bryan and Dan. It gives so much of a community vibe, that it has to be one of the best shot interviews. Also appreciate Brian's candid look into the vac metal situation.

[@graefx]

Mezco included some care instructions with the 89 Batman soft body, I'd like S7 to include a info note in the box just to make sure and remind us in the future. Basically just a blurb of everything stated with handling here. Looks great, really appreciate the nuances like filing down the joints to make these work. Reminds me of how customizers have to sand things to allow for new paint. These type of engineering hurdles are things consumers really dont consider with manufacturing

[@90atom]

Instructions??? we should already know as Adult collectors that we need to handle with care, we aren't kids anymore, it's like having to tell someone coffee is hot when it is something we already know.

I hope Brian has prepared himself for the inevitable tidal wave of complaints about about Vac metal cracking and flaking or paint chips and can restrain himself from shouting I told you so.

[@heroesytumbas]

He doesn't even care about qc issues and the huge discrepancies between prototypes and what people end up getting. I just hope the flaking doesn't happen just by taking the figures out of the package to put on a shelf without playing with them as a five year old like he said.

[@raziel4435]

@@heroesytumbas I would wager he does care about QC issues but there is only so much that can be done about them, not every figure can be inspected and even if they were, your reliant on a factory worker who’s being payed peanuts and would be expected to check hundreds every day, to pick up what are quite often very small problems. As for the discrepancy between prototypes and final products, that’s fairly common, it certainly was with MOTU classics, it’s probably the reason why a lot of companies don’t show hand painted prototypes, but I notice how most people stay quiet about the figures that turn out very well, which in my experience is the majority. I do on the other hand wish they would paint their human figures faces and not just use flesh coloured plastic.

[@heroesytumbas]

@@raziel4435 my main gripe is stuff like Pumyra being the tallest Thundercat, Tygra missing the elbow pad, Mumm-Ra being blue, the weird accesories selection, Vultureman being the tallest mutant and its feet looking nothing like they should, how off is Steelheart's sculpt, Grune being so short among other things, Hammerhand desing being wtf, etc. And the overpricing.

[@raziel4435]

@@heroesytumbas but, except for maybe Tygra’s elbow pad, none of those things are quality control errors. If you’re going to criticise the design/sculpt then you need to be aiming it at the 4 horsemen. I agree character heights being all over the place is annoying, especially Pumyra which they said they would correct after the Mattel version but it ended up only being slightly shorter. If vultureman’s feet were as per the show, then he probably wouldn’t be able to stand, it struggles as is and as far as I can make out, Hammerhand is pretty spot on to his redesign in the show which was much closer to the toy.

"We wAntEd vAc-meTaL!!!!1" "Okay, we had to sell a couple waves to get the capital to work up to figure out how to make vac-metal Silverhawks, but here you go! Don't forget that vac-metal is fragile and costs more than just plain plastic, though, just like every other vac-metal toy in the history of ever." "SupEr7 SucKs!!!1!"

​@@Beedo_Sookcooltbh i dont think that was the issue. I feel they needed to separate both tv and toy versions to justify making the vac metal toys. If the toys were sufficiently shiny demand for the vac metal version wouldn't be as high.

I bet if they made the vac-metal versions first, we'd hear complaints about not getting the cartoon-"accurate" versions. Cripes, the amount of whingeing from the Transformers fandom to get cartoon-"accurate" looks based on one of the cheapest and most mistake-ridden toy cartoons ever was ridiculous.

Reminder that the oils in your hands act like an acid.

Flashback

[@OldDirtyCollector]

I have to be honest here… I’m kind of glad we got the cartoon version first and now the toy version. I always wanted the cartoon version of quicksilver. It’s similar to NECA coming out with the cartoon versions before super 7 did the figure versions

[@Alexx1083]

The only thing I don't understand is why they didn't just resdesign the hip area to be like the Ultimates G.I. Joes. They don't have the "daiper" thing and it allows the legs to move better. Why not just use that style of hips for the vac metal Hawks and remove the most vulnerable area?

[@ryzelrb]

I personally prefer the animation colors on the silverhawks figures. It's what I remember from watching the cartoon.

[@blacknismo1978]

Guess I'll be redoing my shelves. A shelf for animation and 1 for toy versions 😢

[@zalaathrun20]

Well in my case I'm perfectly happy with the previews versions since the look more like the colors of the cartoon than the vintage toys, which to me, is more important to be as TV accurate as possible than vintage toy accurate. Specially since back then most times the toys were miss proportioned, lacking paint apps, or not looking at all like the cartoon characters on most of the 70s, 80s, and 90s cartoon/kids shows toylines.

[@bladerunner3314]

I would agree, since the toys never were available here I have no nostaligic connection. That said, IMO they dropped the ball on several issues with the previous version like why two birds instead of replacement wings? Or why no way to get the heads into a flight pose? Unless the latter is addressed, I'll skip these like I did the others.

[@theartisanrogue]

Ten to twenty more is absolutely fine for the incredible look they managed to nail with that vac metal as far as I am concerned.

[@200yoda002]

Super7 has earned a questionable reputation due to their treatment of customers. They often present pre-orders with 3D renders that don't match the final product, leading to disappointment. Moreover, issues with articulation, plastic burrs, and other quality problems persist, yet they receive surprisingly less criticism compared to other brands like Hasbro. It's worth noting that this type of painting technique has been used in figures for many years. Additionally, Super7's products are manufactured in Chinese factories, not in the United States.

[@ConstantineCydonea]

HASBRO is like 80 years in the game and cant give to customers pinless figures with better window boxes. Look how cheap look the classified line, gummy plastic in almost every weapon, all the joes look like 45 year old dudes.

I would be happy with a solid croch piece being that it's Vac metal. Having limited articulation of course. But I'm ok with that.

[@heroesytumbas]

9:02 No, the Silverhawks they released first aren't "animation accurate". See the black shades and white spots they have in the cartoon? Those mean metallic shine... Even as a kid I knew that. But whatever, I'm willing to overlook how bad Steelheart's sculpt is if she looks metallic.

I can't help but think Brian always had intentions to do this and therefore is double tipping on these figures, but I still have to have them

[@ultramag0343]

Of course ! His intentions were to get as much use out of the molds as possible. He wasn't gonna sell as many animation versions if he put out the toy versions first ! It's just business, but he didn't say that because it would sound and look grimey.

[@pegasuslb]

Of course he had, there’s zero doubt about that

[@kaydee1485]

​@@ultramag0343not sure if the moulds area reusable in that way though. When it comes to articulated figures, even incremental differences are a big deal. To cover joints in vac metal, its highly likely they needed new moulds for specific parts

[@ZombieFBody]

He assumes too much about all of us being adults! I think we're going to see so much complaining with these over people handling these rough. They'll demand that an item at this cost should be indestructible. The flaking stuff still worries me even though I am very careful with all my figures.

[@troymikjaniec2143]

i can't help but think the same way especially, since their are toys that do chrome/vac metal/die cast/metallic paint well. don't believe me, check out transarts beast wars toys. those toys were designed from the get go around it. they have more articulation and moving parts than super 7 but don't have these degree of problems. also he said they had to vac metal everything which makes me thing all pieces are on one runner (thus all one color). that's lazy design on their part.

This is typical Brian. Saying one thing, turning around later and then saying the opposite or being proven wrong / called out. I also note how he's preemptively highlighting QC issues before anyone else does, so when people get these in hand and are disappointed then he'll turn around and do an "I told you so". That's a new one for him. Also note the emphasis on any issues being the customer’s fault. Finally, note the comments that some parts aren't the right colour and will be fixed in the factory. Lol, that's not going to happen based on his track record. We've heard that before from him. BTW this is coming from a place of wanting to like their products, spending a lot on their TMNT Ultimates! line and being constantly disappointed and subject to false promises, low quality, cheap figs riddled with problems and poor QC issues that they’ve no intention of addressing. This is from personal experience.

As someone who has been on the manufacturing side of capitalism for the last five years, I know exactly what kind of nonsense small businesses have to put up with with outsourced manufacturing -- wrong materials being used, wrong colours being used, etc. -- it happens to small businesses way more fequently than with the big international corporations.

@@Beedo_Sookcool You need to let go of the notion that Super7 is a small company because it's not anymore. They manufacture their action figures in China, so if the first wave of a collection doesn't meet your quality standards, you can easily switch to another company. Instead of being perceived as victims, they should take responsibility for delivering subpar products that don't match the 3D renders at all.

When you switch alot of that work, progress, expertise and time goes up in smoke. Its def not as simple as you're making it out to be. And there's the long term impact on the figures and your company. Issues with parts fitting, consistency across the board and long-term quality of the materials. Its also about timing, alot of these factories have jobs they're already handling, its not like they're dropping everything to do yours.

@@Beedo_Sookcool Please refrain from insisting that Super7 is a small company because it is not. Delays may occur as the Chinese manufacturer prioritizes fulfilling orders for larger companies with higher volumes, which brings them more revenue.
