Top 10 Worst Action Figures | 2021

[@SpiderSamYT]

Man I love these top ten lists, they will always be entertaining. And I'm not surprised hasbro made the majority of the list

[@FancyNancyFr]

Damn that's Hasbro slandering bruv

[@gaebril131]

There's actually less ML on the list than I expected

[@langletprolet8378]

Hasbro consistently makes it to both Anthony's Worst and also Best figures list every year.

[@BobTheAwesomeBob]

Agree and haven’t watched so idk about the hasbro part of your comment but the fun of 10 list I agree with

[@Hirabeatz]

@@langletprolet8378 yeah he seems to find them very polarizing he adores a lot and hates a lot every year without fail

[@shorteststraw03]

Ballsy move throwing the sentinel on here lol. That one alone might piss people off but I see why you threw it up. Agree it shouldn't have those issues for the price.

[@stevenwurtzbacher2968]

King Sphinx: so bad he made the Worst list 2 years in a row.

[@SymbiSpidey]

I'm shocked that the Tri-Sentinel wave Jean Grey isn't on this list.

[@TheMattTrakker]

The Sentinel is disappointing, but not surprising. I would have backed it for sure, but I assumed Hasbro was gonna Hasbro. Having structural issues on a tall, $300+ figure is just inexcusable.

[@reeda1746]

Mad respect for including the Sentinel on the list! Those issues shouldn't be ignored when it comes to pricey figures

[@ZARAHAnimation]

Been waiting for this!

[@RockerMicke1]

Every thing that jazzwares makes is garbage thanks for saving me there Anthony

[@erikmillman]

Yes! Always look forward to your Worst Lists. I know you don’t like doing them but we your fans appreciate you for doing it anyway.

[@TheSonnyChannel]

Woah! The Hood is actually figure of the year. Not a turd, but definitely the 💩! #HoodLife

[@kanewoodking2800]

Justice for The Hood! Real ones know that The Hood is the shining star of the year 💯

[@PowerChordEPS]

I just noticed you had Sphynx on this and last year's list. I ended up getting him for $8 on Amazon and gave him a good paintjob (I.E. just a black/brown wash and gold rub 'n' buff in spots) now he looks ready to do some damage. Mine articulates pretty well too, not sure if you just got a bum one in that department but hey. Honestly I think Hasbro's biggest issue across the board is the fact they have their fingers in so many franchise pies, I feel like there's not a lot of effort to go around. The whole appeal of the Sentinel was its size, I knew it wouldn't be the most articulated but even still I was taken aback by the knee issue. It's a statement piece and I've seen some excellent displays/photos with the thing, but I'm glad I can enjoy it from a distance.

[@Ghoulstille]

They were trying to get rid of that Marvel Legends The Hood figure for 40% off on amazon and nope. No takers.

[@Negent_The_Goblin]

I'd take them in a heart beat, tear off the hair, little bit o paint, different hair sculpts, different bodies, and you have an army of idiots screaming their heads off running at your choice of hero

[@Empirechavez]

@@Negent_The_Goblin yeah if you play with them like a fucking child.

[@waleslandofdragons8842]

Rafael he is talking about changing the figure to suit how he would like to display it what crawled up your arse

[@adamcooke3929]

Mine became fodder. The body went to a plain clothes Ben Reilly, cape went to Deadpool (just for fun).

[@Presto.Agitato]

For some reason i started laughing when i saw sentinal

[@missheard101]

Me too lol

[@TheSonnyChannel]

I had to rewatch this to make sure I heard correctly. Did you say The Hood was the worst figure? Or the most versatile figure ever made? It was hard to tell with your accent.

[@davidevalentino3293]

For me, ssj Goku is a good figure. The two bad things are, the screaming face needs better detail, and the hair needs to be smoother.

[@Justincredibletoys]

Thanks for calling Hasbro out on the shit unlike some people

[@thestranger9265]

A bit shocked to see Steppenwolf and Darkseid in the list. I own both they are awesome. I would only criticize the lack of stability in Steppenwolf tho

[@CruelPizza213]

I agree, the darkseid is great too, and the accessories don’t make sense? They’re in the movie!

[@n_explosion8199]

I think it's great how you trash bad figures in an honest and slightly brutal way. I would love to see and hear you tear apart a Super 7 figure. Doesn't mather which one. They're all crap. I really want to know how you think about that Company because lazyness and bad qc is like their thing.

[@AnthonysCustoms]

thats why i dont buy them

[@n_explosion8199]

@@AnthonysCustoms lol, nuff said 😂

[@taddghostal]

For me, the McFarlane Bane BAF is the worst of the year. It made me quit McFarlane all together and im not missing them at all. Just absolute trash. Poor paint on all the figs, terrible articulation and cheesing customers with not including the alternate heads and all the stupid finger guns!!!

[@sal7149]

I just started to collect mcfarlane dc multiverse and I’m so confused on how I feel about them. I love my John Stewart green lantern fig but since than I bought a few more and well they are lack luster. Out of the 10 or 12 I have I bought most of them on sale and the majority close to half off, not good for the line but makes me feel better about what I got for the price.

[@rishav-2749]

Your voice-over fit best with the Sentinel part, it didn't feel like pre-recorded video.

[@AnthonysCustoms]

Clever editing

[@kailee87]

most of these figures are good , but you should add that terrible Spider-Man 2099

[@Negent_The_Goblin]

Not done with the video yet, but just wanted to give my thanks for making these!

[@chrisalan457]

Love these end of year lists. Compound Hulk was one of my favorite figures of the year but your criticism about the head is valid.

[@waleslandofdragons8842]

I really like my armoured darkseid but I get where your coming from with its flaws

[@lfabio.n]

@@waleslandofdragons8842 If only SteppenWolf could stand for a week in a row, I given up on him, mine have no loose joints but the feet's end up giving up at some point and he falls at least once a week, no villains to go against my Justice League Snyder's Cut action figures

[@bubby14]

You’re right about Maul. They charged a over 25 for such a tiny figure. I actually thought it was supposed to be teenage Maul. The cost of the figure plus shipping made him my #1 regrettable purchase of the year because BBTS are poopy about returns.

[@usernamunavailiable]

They literally state the size of the figure in the description.

[@usernamunavailiable]

$25? I take it you don’t collect SH Figarts or Revoltech?..

[@shouldafigured6415]

I would put the Marvel Legends Black and Gold Suit Spider-Man from NWH on my personal list

[@samuelprince4719]

Even in the film I wasnt the biggest fan of the design. The red and gold and that last suit are pretty nice though. Fingers crossed Tom Holland gets the real black suit soon 😂

[@theguyonthecouch42024]

Yeah, im done with bucky cap molds, repaints, and no guns to certain characters, thanks man, happy new years.

[@BigDaddyCola]

Blown away by the fist of the north star figure. Though im not too familiar with the anime so i didnt even notice the inaccurate face.

[@saiyanninjawarriorz]

That Goku was so bad, the only this it's good for is using the body for fodder

[@fortressmattimus3984]

Watching through this list pretty much felt like "oh hey, I forgot Anthony reviewed that but I'm not surprised it made his list."

[@Nuggetlord638]

I have to admit I snort-laughed when they blew up the Razor Crest right after it funded.

[@waleslandofdragons8842]

What happened with it

[@ebanksstudios]

You did King Sphinx last year

[@adamcooke3929]

I got exactly what I expected with Haslab Sentinel. It's still made by the same Hasbro people who make the other Legends. Low quality is basically a standard for them, yes sometimes they get it right but not normally. The high price was solely about the size, I never expected higher quality. Also mine stands fine and has all tight joints.

[@TrueAmericanReject]

I’m definitely noticing more & more people unsatisfied by Haslab, been exacerbated by the disappointment of Rancor feeling overpriced as well to some & the whole debacle along the way, too many haslabs in a row pretty much, the Razorcrest being successful just to be vaporized in show like a week later, etc. now I’m sure the Sentinel figures may be someone else’s top 10 best I’m sure but good point putting it here.

[@fortressmattimus3984]

It's not surprising that Hasbro followed up the Sentinel with their biggest possible figure, all before the Sentinel dropped and we learned of its critiques. Galactus is undoubtedly the largest figure they will ever attempt at a Haslab, as who could be bigger? They knew they had to pump that out ASAP, before people caught on to the schemes and quality of these projects. That's in part of why the Rancor failed. I bought Sentinel and I backed Galactus, but that was only after I knew the tiers were added and I got more value out of the price. I enjoy my Sentinel, but I fully empathize with the criticism of Haslabs from a mega corporation

[@Xenomrph]

I’m really hoping the Haslab proton pack is good (especially since I backed it lol)

[@Jas-1119]

Definitely a fan of top tens or end of the year lists like this. Damn, I bought that gold label Darkseid and have been on the fence about opening him. Kind of worried Galactus may have the same issues as the Sentinel.

[@MrLurchsThings]

TBH, I expected more McFarlane.

[@imspyral1761]

Do a top 10 worse/best marvel legends next

[@mojokicks2152]

I just don't agree about the Darkseid & Steppenwolf. They are a great figure with great sculpt

[@nicktuevers2795]

I don't have steppenwolf but I definitely like the Darkseid figure

Top 10 Worst Marvel Legends: 1. The Eternals. (all 10 of them)

[@UnusualYikes]

😂😅🤣

[@Enzo_Matrix92]

Not from 2021 I think but the white cloaked Doctor Doom. The thing broke on me out of the box. Apparently it has a broken crotch issue.

[@missheard101]

Good list. I don't like any of these except the Goku. And the only reason I like him is because he's my only powered up version of Goku lol. Mine has the same issues plus some weird issues with one of the legs and ankles, but still need him to fill a spot on the shelf. Thanks for the video and hope you have a happy new year Anthony!

[@thanksgivingh6185]

love these lists. worst figures is more fun than best figures since most people are afraid to hurt feelings and wont touch it

[@dtejada1988]

Zup Anthony, well I’m kind of glad I don’t own any of this figures, but still like the hulk tho 😎👍🏼

[@hellothere6289]

I would include the retro Spider-Man 2099 on my list, that crap is one of the worst re-releases from Hasbro, also the figures from the McFarlane Dark Father wave, maximum garbage

[@waleslandofdragons8842]

I really like the wonder woman but I do agree with the rest of them

[@pants989]

MGA released a 24" doll this year with ratchet knees for $80 MSRP...Hasbro not adding them to their $330+ Sentinel is so weak.

[@VinAnrba]

I would only disagree with the super saiyan Goku. You must have gotten a very bad QC crappy copy lol. It has THE best super saiyan hair sculpt imo

[@elcucuy4958]

You can't take first place from Full Power Goku. Did they change the plastic quality? Face looks this cheap shiny yellowish hardly transparent plastic like the new 17&18 that look like they came out of the hospital after 1 month fighting heavy pneumonia.

[@gerrysabron]

actually Im more excited with this list than most Top 10 best figures done by everyone...🤣

[@rjzavala87]

Thanx for doing these year end vids, anthony. You and your fam have a happy new year.

[@magaapocalypse2351]

Any fig in any of the last marvel legends waves going back to Mr fix it baf could have made this list.

[@travisa7669]

I almost grabbed The Hood on a clearance price for the guns, effects and hood. That's all he's good for. I did see him on someone's top 10 BEST list.

[@Qorm135]

Man, I dodged a berage of bullets! Some of those figures I thought about buying when they were released, good thing I didn't!

[@Imac7065]

The hood is actually worse than you realize.... the costume they used is just a repaint of the stan lee / parker park body... the hood in the comics wears a white dress shirt with a black vest and has jeans on.... he can also transform into a monster which ud never know from the figure everyone makes meme's out of now lol.... I hope they do him right one day with the switch out monster arms and head... because that is his actual powers.

[@xeanheart]

King Sphinx was released in 2020. Outside of that, yeah, easy to see why alot of these were chosen.

[@AnthonysCustoms]

Bad enough to include it again

[@danwilliams1989]

I don’t hate The Hood figure but mostly because of what a humorous mascot for ToyFarce’s Instagram

[@frikitiki5403]

I thought king sphinx was on your 2020 worst list

[@AnthonysCustoms]

Bad enough to include again lol

[@protozoalord]

I'd disagree on the Kenshiro's face not looking like Kenshiro. It doesn't match the anime or the early volumes of the manga, but it looks pretty close to Tetsuo Hara's art starting from about a quarter way through the original manga to this current day, which is what I prefer. The only nitpicks I could make are that they eyebrows are slightly less thick than I'd like, and that his skin is ever so slightly more wrinkled than I have ever seen him be. The QC for the cost is atrocious though, I'm glad I passed on him for the time being.

[@kingjames7333]

The Goku is meh it’s not bad and not good, depends on what kinda luck you get with figures

[@TheDrRandomness]

Love the halo 2 figure I do agree with the horrible paint choice and those knees are the ugliest knees I've ever seen on a figure.

[@TheDARKNESS8030]

Did he just say mcfarlane was a a great company known for their quality? Didnt He spent most of the year ripping on them?

[@AnthonysCustoms]

"was" is the key word

I don't think Kenshiro should be on this list I think that's a bit of a miss but to each their own lol edit: plus there were far worse figures released this year.

[@AnthonysCustoms]

Not for the price

[@Chief-Solarize]

Thankyou for showing us all these stupid toys

[@DesignIncase]

I'd say for me these aren't the worst but there are disappointments to be had. SSJ Goku - Personally I love mine given the price point. But maybe I was lucky in not getting a dud. Steppnwolf - I'm happy with the figure but the Mcfarlane articulation hurts it for me, especially after seeing how badass he was in the real movie. Darkseid - Those arms need fixing badly and the upper thighs need fixing. My real issue with this release is the disrepect. Making the desirable armored Darkseid a hard to get exclusive only announced after Amazon shipped the shirtless guy. King Sphinx - Honestly either you love Power Rangers or you don't. This certainly shouldn't be the thing that takes you out of the line but Hasbro still did bad. They didn't paint the nose and mouth. The made an 8inch scale figure in a 6inch scale line where the show depicts this guy are being the height of the rangers. I don't understand the thought process. The joints are tight on mine. It's not really an issue of sculpt anymore. What's the point of sculpt if the release doesn't bring out the details with say a wash. Customizing your figure should be a fun thing to do. Not required. You aren't making statues, so fix your articulation along with not using materials that turn something flexible into a stone.

[@Rynoverse]

7:35 I called right before I even clicked the video

[@Vanster_11]

I agree with most just not the Goku and sentinel

[@Wolfie1262]

Lol I knew Kenshiro was going to be on there somewhere. And I mostly agree. The face is like they couldn’t decide between the tv series face and the movie face. It’s just kind of weird. It looks good, it just doesn’t look like the Kenshiro they were going for. It does kind of look like the later versions, but from everything I can tell, that’s not who it’s supposed to be. And I’m really surprised at the HasLab Sentinel. Mine stands up really well. But I’ve seen people all over complaining about it’s stability. I don’t have any of the others, so can’t really say much. And most of the figures I bought are from previous years. I get a kick out of your worst of the year videos, because some of these figures really need to be stopped….no matter the cost

[@Antekrw1]

The Compound Hulk looks terrible

[@z0m813]

Overall jazzwares has disappointed me with everything they have put out mostly the AEW figures I got several of them for my son for Christmas and man they feel so loose they feel like they are going to break

[@tombowling8646]

I really like my Compound Hulk.

[@brianthomsen1163]

The entire Marvel Legends Eternals line is on my worst list.

[@andrewtaylor940]

I think I got both King Sphinx and the Pumkin head guy on deep deep Clearance at Target. Still not great figures even sub $10. But still a better choice than Marvel's Katy with Butt Dog thing.

[@FrancisHD]

[@Xenomrph]

I can’t comment on the other figures in the list but I have Steppenwolf and I like him. A character called “The hood” not being able to wear his hood properly is pretty funny though.

[@-slice-6103]

Jazwares don’t even try with their paintjobs and it’s so disappointing, they should learn a thing or two from Neca or even the old Halo McFarlane figures

[@Goobious_Maximus]

I knew Super Saiyan Goku was gonna be in this list. Such wasted potential. Should’ve been an easy home run for Tamashii.

[@DuplicitousDark]

Lol. Even in the comics the hood was a turd they kept trying to polish.

[@robertnewby4798]

I used the hood as a Bruce banner

[@reynardyonatan5521]

If anthony talk shit about a masterchief figure, then it must be so dissappointing. Glad i didn't go with that jazwares

[@BFBeast666]

Transformers Kingdom Tracks is a hot contender for worst figure. The mold has so many issues, it's not even funny.

[@captainrex3954]

Hola amigo 😊

[@theslickrips5904]

I really appreciate you being willing to throw hasbro under the bus for their shut sentinel. Terrible for the price

[@Negent_The_Goblin]

I really love the hood figure! Was the sleeper hit of the wave! Reason .1 where else are you gonna find such a unique laughable head sculpt like this?! I mean its weird and stupid, but i like it for that reason, we rarely have sculpts where the facial features are just someone going batshit insane! Reason 2. The body is good fodder for background shots, and although I'll be the first to admit how much this buck gets on my nerves with how good it should be, its one of the most mass produced civilian figures we have, and i like the goofy color choices! Reason 3. The accessories are nice to have like you said, the cape, the gun effects, love this figure, but yeah you're right, body, hood dont fit, dont work. But I'll defend that head til the day i die! Haha

[@PowerChordEPS]

I'm glad I'm not alone on this. Hood just isn't worth full price. Find him on sale and he's fantastic for all the wrong reasons (Meme-worthy head, dildo blast effects, color scheme that looks like Peter Griffin wearing a Members Only Jacket, etc.). Guns are actually pretty nice, think they might be the same mold as Movie Deadpool?

[@schwann1826]

So far I'm happy with my Sentinels. No qc issues but plenty that have. No excuses for the price so hopefully the team learns for Galactus whos even bigger.

[@batforcegrump]

Solid list but the hood is worth for that head sculpt alone, so many great pics out there…LOL

[@danielyoungblood3931]

The Hood was exceptionally bad. Literally the worst character to give a plastic cape.

[@shinobi-Wan]

I really wanted a darth maul especially with the new standard that black series is putting in their figures but you are right that darth maul other than the face looks more like a figure from the beginning of BS line. Such a shame.

[@FancyNancyFr]

Man I actually wanted to get the hulk and the darkseid, but I should rethink that

[@pandaoutbreak]

Great list. The hood would have been my number 1 but i just found so much versatility with him. Did some small customization with him, and I mainly used him as a bruce banner. I got him for 10$ and i can live with that.

[@Pipelicioso]

Totally agreed
