Marvel Legends X-Men Villains Pretty Boy, Vertigo, Stryfe, Random, Zero Hasbro 5 Pack Review

[@stevenmcd4741]

I skipped to the end because I really wanted to see the full team of Reavers. I wasn’t disappointed. Now I’ll watch the whole video.

[@biggdogg1975]

😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@kinketsu9103]

Me too but I went back. Your Reavers line up looks fantastic. Need a flaming torch for Pierce for that cover art!

[@CandGoods]

I'm gonna get this set eventually, just waiting for the price to be right. I mostly want Pretty Boy and Stryfe. Wish Random was much larger though. They really ought to do an army-builder Reavers pack that is like muscular bodies in fatigue pants and tactical vests kitted out with cybernetics, with swappable heads, maybe explicitly make it Cole and Macon, but also include the Reese head again with improved paint, maybe other generic Reavers to beef up the ranks, many many firearms, some blast effects. That would be awesome, though Hasbro needs to do more production runs of other army builders too, it felt like those Skrulls didn't stick around for long.

[@molotoves4thewin320]

I think one of Random’s powers is he does change shape, so it is probably accurate but definitely not accurate to the 90’s action figure where he had a wider body for sure

[@Uncleoora2800]

25 at Ross right now

[@palletlover8519]

As someone who just finished reading the original new mutants and just started reading X-Force I was really excited to see a figure of Stryfe

[@Choom89]

That five o'clock shadow on Strife is what I'm talking about, great head sculpts like that make me want to pick up almost any character lol!

[@trevorghalt1881]

Stryfe new upgrades and Pretty Boy Bruce Campbell looks fantastic

[@domtaylor1887]

I know I'm not the first person to say this, but Pretty Boy's head looks like Bruce Campbell (specifically Army of Darkness era). So if somebody wanted to make a Marvel Legends scale Ash Williams, that head would be a good pick.

[@hang10wannabe]

I have this set and until watching this, I'm actually more excited to open it because these figures are surprisingly good! Thanks for the review Robo!

[@whitespyder9]

I can't believe they couldn't AT LEAST given Vertigo a unique hair sculpt.

[@gregorymeade9869]

Big Bang Comics is my local comic store and man they don't disappoint

[@Arrowdodger]

Also a Southerner, so thanks for the dauber shout-out. Also, I always love your music jokes, so that was also fun on the Random section.

[@craigoneill2216]

It will always blow my mind when I see the Big Bang logo in your videos

[@Scotty-Z70]

9:10 good, because all i could think about his spikes were "you'll poke your eye out!"

[@doggins4life]

FLESH BLASTER

[@Scotty-Z70]

10:22 Zero...he's my Hero...he looks very different from the School House Rock video

[@vinithkarthek46]

1:55 W transition

[@TAKTAK_Toys]

Kapow Toys here in the UK is selling the characters from this 5 pack separately, I’m tempted to get Random

[@RidiculousThoughts]

Good review! You can buy an extra Blue Marvel, take the blue vest and remove the white bits and put it on Pretty Boy. He will look closer to the comic.

[@marcusyee2211]

Thanks for giving me nightmare fuel with that wasp nest lol

[@hang10wannabe]

Still watching the video but man, that Stryfe is waaaaaaaaaaaay better looking than the old one. I just assumed it would be a repaint but I like the headsculpt and added bulk added.

[@deviantknight7009]

I learned about Pretty Boy and the rest of the cyborg gang from the Punisher Arcade game from 1993, it was awesome to see them and even better when I saw some of them in the X-men TAS episode where they and Lady Death Strike ambushed Wolverine and the morlocks and fought that life abosrbing alien in the sewer

[@PatrickVeronica-ru9tx]

I just got this 5-pack and i gotta say it is pretty cool! I have been pairing my Reavers with my GI Joe Dreadnoks and they really go great together! Awesome review/vid!✌️

[@fernandodelgado4329]

Robo,, You are like father figure that I never had because I like having fun and playing with my figures and I do think this 5 pack looks dope but I wish Pretty Boy was a single release because I really don't need the other characters, Hopefully they just can re-release him by himself one day.

[@gwenb.4179]

The Vertigo Figure utilizes the Psylocke body mold from the Apocalypse Wave. Great review Robo! 👍

[@stevewegling8070]

Robo, you mack daddy! All the 90's goodness you could not help but to add back to this overview 😁 I have the same critique most do who know Random. He needed a bigger torso to be accurate he had the over muscled look popular at the time. I have the older release. You know parts better then I so the Sue storm and other reuse for Vertigo slipped right be me😉. Strife is definitely the pull for this set besides making a full Reavers crew with Pretty Boy. Zero I have about as much familiarity with and maybe I need to read up to appreciate his rendering. 60 years of X-Men foes and an ally in a box...glad you took the time to make a video 👍✌️

[@gerwal7002]

Thanks Robo. I picked this up for Stryfe and Zero, but I'm also happy with the others.

[@alekhidell4925]

'He's little in the middle and doesn't have much back'....that's all I heard for Random haha.

[@Sybato]

Wouldn't be surprised if Vertigo used the exact same body as Blink, but without the accessories on it (loin cloth belt, choker, and boot cuffs).

[@IanMcGarr]

Nice to see my local Big Bang getting some shout outs.

[@onemangang8879]

The nice thing about the mullet-ish hair on Pretty Boy is that you can cut a notch in the back of the neck for more tilt up and it won't be visible when looking straight ahead.

[@Bad_Wolf_Media]

With Robo's love of all things Outback X-Men, that Zero portal would probably work well with to go with a (custom, for now?) Gateway figure.

[@chucker173]

I wish Hasbro would make an action figure of my big honking’ flesh blaster instead of the selfie series

[@jessehcreative]

I saw someone use the Vertigo head and old Scarlet Witch body to make Metroid NES Samus, so if anyone wants to make her, have at it! Great review as always, Robo! I’ve missed you! :)

[@megatheoryum1138]

I am so glad they made Stryfe a bit taller, It has always bugged me that he was slightly shorter than Cable

[@Erubus4077]

Robo I think that you should know that you've inspired me not only to get my first two Marvel Legends but also my first X-Men comic.

[@gakolav6241]

I'm a big 90s X-Factor fan so it was dream to get Random. In hand is so much better than I expected. Glad to fill out my team.

[@jondoe4624]

For me, this 5 pack was mainly about Stryfe and Random. The others are nice to have also

[@BriarShinn]

I've always interpreted Pretty Boys name as an ironic jab at the fact he only has his human head/face left so they call him "Pretty Boy" cause that's all hes got going for him even if he isn't actually that pretty

[@toddjones1480]

He was called Pretty Boy when he still had flesh on his body. At the very least he used to have normal-looking arms.

[@Hohrd]

I like what you did with Vertigo ❤

[@craggylotus]

You should go back and read the 90s X-Factor (from #71 IIRC) not really for Random but just because it's a great run by Peter David, Larry Stroman and Joe Quesada.

[@sns0805]

Definitely want more Marauders!!

[@xavierbroomhall3293]

Vertigo has little Tobey Maguire Spider-Man hands😂😂

[@Fenris30]

I don't mind Vertigo's hair being like that since in the 90's Big Hair was a thing.

[@Harpoquondrax]

Excited!

[@Arrowdodger]

Vertigo's face looks great. Very Kylie Minogue.

[@Zolerous]

That Stryfe head sculpt is 100x better. Have to see if I can pick him up separately

[@glennmiller6759]

Pretty boy would also make a great metallo custom with some tweaks

[@Frank_Quiroz_72]

A playmovil like box wow! 🙄🤟

[@michaelanderson1015]

Stryfe and Random are the highlights for me. The others were cool but just weren't characters I gravitated too.

[@RockNerdRadio]

Well I guess I can scrap my review of the 5 pack, you beat me to it 😅. Awesome stuff! I'm happy with the set. I actually made a custom Random and like a week later, this set was announced

[@cyclonusprimus5875]

It would be cool to see you make a custom Ash Williams using that Pretty boy headsculpt 👀

[@Scotty-Z70]

7:10 plus...how does metal armor have muscles, to begin with? Answer: 90s

[@onemangang8879]

This set had TWO of my top villain wants: Pretty Boy (of course), and VeRtIgO! Yeah, Vertigo's on an old buck, but I loved the Marauders during the 80s Claremont/Silvestri run. And with those amazing Can of Beams green wobbly energy effects...MWAH! (She should've come with effects in this expensive multi-pack, but they would've been the effects we've received a million-billion times, so...) Pretty Boy is great but I really wanted him to be a single-card release to get an extra one for customizing. Instead, I pre-ordered the Mafex T2 endoskeleton for a better PB sculpt.

[@dbeane43]

I've been waiting for Stryfe, Zero, and Random. But I like all 5 figures. So I'm calling this 5 pack a win. Also, that Random figure is way better than it has a right to be.

[@bladestar2322]

Only if it's on extreme Clearance. I am only interested in the Stryfe and Vertigo. I don't have any luck selling figures so I would end up throwing the others in the trash probably.

[@beltfed4624]

I've wanted a single package figure of Random for 30 years, since I got the old one way back in the day... But nooo, he's packed in there with Cable's clone, Robonot, PoisonHIV and that other thing... 😩

[@a-cygnus]

"Flesh blaster" should be in the urban dictionary. I will be using this phrase going forward.

[@nerdbot37]

We have those mud wasps in upstate New York too.

[@boclarke6853]

"Flesh Blaster" *wink 😂

[@ceegronlee]

That Stryfe is so much better. I have the old one but would love to swap it for this one.

[@JadeinDavis]

Is there any update on the fwoosh skeletons? Just wondering because I am still waiting for my preorder.

[@symbiote1982pk]

At least completing a marauders team may be feasible at some point, so they have that over the Nasty Boys, looks like the MLF need some more love too. It's weird to think that there are figures Toybiz managed to get out that Hasbro haven't touched yet, but X-Men stuff was red hot at the time so any old jobber would sell.

[@jcole__3]

I’m getting Metallo vibes from the pretty boy body

[@jcole__3]

For a custom obviously

[@Emeraldnite-if7vo]

Not too interested in the characters. The main interest I had would be to use Pretty Boy's body for Silvermane, so thank you for showing it would look awesome. Hopefully Hasbro sells that combination in the future because I do not want to pay aftermarket prices for PB at this time.

[@IanORourke-t6s]

Hey fwoosh If were you I would make another Skullbuster to that way you have your custom reavers in your display

[@raymondjones5909]

I wish random had both shooting hands and interchangeable hands to switch out

[@1975dlh]

Pretty boy head sculpt reminds me of human Shrek weirdly.

[@joehuemmer2927]

Pretty boys head would be perfect for making a custom g i joe cobra dreadnok figure of thrasher the thunder machines driver 😁

[@MrTurtleCollects]

are you are going to get the spiderman across the spider verse wave?

[@juan.nassiff]

Pretty Boy with another hair, could be Hubert Graft from Phantom 2040.

[@BrianKollig]

How many of the classic Marauders have been made? do you have any custom Marauders?

[@adamh234]

Need a tusk now that we've got random... and a plain clothed cyclops... and every other character from that weird episode of the animated series

[@brandonpower5188]

Really dropped the ball on the Pretty Boy head sculpt.

[@TheFwoosh]

Naw.

[@Scotty-Z70]

well, Amazon, MAKE me a JACK OF HEARTS...i've wanted a figure of him since 1980. And throw-in a STINGRAY

[@tamashorvath224]

16:50 Evil Bruce Campbell.

[@yellowmartian]

I want pretty boy to make a custom of Metallo.

[@superpaul79]

4:45 That's what the ladies call me! Sigh. Ladies don't call me anything. Ladies don't call me. I'm so lonely.

[@whitespyder9]

What is that Cable head?

[@TheFwoosh]

It's a custom head from Casting Cave. castingcave.ecrater.com/

[@asgardianforge]

Those pretty boy legs prove that there's no excuse for them not to make a good IG unit

[@brainlock72]

The good thing about making a custom Zero is that you can turn him into literally anyone else since he’s a 99.95% white figure. Yes, I actually made one RIGHT BEFORE they announced this set. 😂🤷‍♂️

[@zonkeos100]

Making zero into the spot would be so easy

[@RockNerdRadio]

I was working on one too!

[@Blitzkrieger17]

Oof. The swirly twirly plastic on joints is like 80/20, going to be welded together... Looks cool when its not all boogered up though...

[@doggins4life]

MEAT CANNON

[@princebloodgrave8097]

I turned my old Stryfe into a bigger, buffer Silvermane.

[@discipleoffear]

Idk I think that Vertigo face sculpt is different than Sue’s. Especially in the side profile the eyebrows seem shaped differently, the chin is more raised, smaller lips. Could be wrong of course.

[@gagetolinwrites6845]

Wait, they're called dirt dobbers in the South? I'm in SW Ohio, and we call them mud dobbers😅

[@tfrank36]

Pretty Boys head sculpt kinda looks like Human Shrek from Shrek 2

[@popcultureoppressionobsess2104]

Did you hear about Hasbro sending Pinkertons to a KZbinrs house?

[@Scoopman_5000]

What is an overview vs a review

[@driver8sk]

Why are Hasbro sculptors turning all their figures into 1970's character actors? Both GI Joe's Falcon and Pretty boy both have giant, lantern jaw heads.

[@brainlock72]

Falcon is Burn Gorman from Torchwood and Dark Knight Rises. (And what’s that KAIJU film with the giant robot Jaegers? Pacific Rim?)

[@CoveofEzzy]

It’s probably been asked a hundred-thousand times but what is the “bright white” song called?

[@brainlock72]

It’s the Crash Test Dummies’ song “Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm” Radio stations hated it because of the title. 😂 Weird Al parodied it in “Headline News”, which is hilarious for the early 90s. You had to be there.

[@anthonycaulfield2337]

Shout out to Big Bang Comics

[@KaijuMannix]

X men bad guy cool

[@blahblahpocalyspe8323]

The X-Men theme song is just Whitney Houston's I'm Your Baby Tonight.... Also 616 likes! Earth-616

[@glennmiller6759]

That bogey would’ve also been good for a Super Adaptoid before he copies powers

[@Darkcur]

consider this, swap the pretty boy head with flesh mask Lt Falcon's head

[@zephyrleapold6796]

Quick 24 min look

[@marvelsomething1952]

the head sculpt reminds me of the giga chad meme where it's what sheltered straight men assume is the most attractive man possible, but no one else thinks is appealing

[@cbrock5529]

Anyone else think that the pretty boy figure kinda looks like Bruce Campbell? Like not exactly but from an evil dead comic.

[@The-Sci-Fi-Guy]

Is it just me or does pretty boy look like a realistic version of when Shrek becomes human?

[@brainlock72]

No, that was Goodman as Cuzn GH Ruth. Well, the “Handsome Shrek” figure looked more like Babe than the movie did.

[@RDevilman98]

So many people were pissed with the Zero figure, but like...what did you expect?

[@ucitymetalhead]

I'll just buy pretty boy separate cause he's the only good one and has customizing potential.
