MARVEL LEGENDS HEROES FOR HIRE IRON FIST & LUKE CAGE 85 YEARS CELEBRATION 2-PACK REVIEW

[@demetricsmith471]

Luke and Danny were my faves since the announcement of the 85th Anniversary Program! They were much needed updates that a lot of Marvel Legends fans have been waiting for!😁

[@Xmanny87]

Absolutely needed them updated

[@robertfalcone3025]

​@@Xmanny87Great review brother...I just got my 2 Pack yesterday & you were 💯 ! Btw where did you get that steel girder that Luke Cage is holding? Is it that steel bar that came with a couple Hulk's ? If so I have one.but if not I'd like to pick one up Anyways keep up the great work 👑

[@emmanuelsilvera8032]

I think that Fei Long accessory actually looks pretty good with Rand! I cant believe Im saying this but I really hope they ship this 2 pack early. I still have my older ML Iron Fist unopened 😅. Luke Cage looks really good, they went the extra mile with this 2 pack. I hope the reuse the Cage buck for Absorbing Man, he needs an update badly.

[@Namelessvoid53]

I want them to use the luke cage body for a Doc Samson figure

[@emmanuelsilvera8032]

He's another overdue figure for sure!​@@Namelessvoid53

[@Xmanny87]

Yeah I’m liking the Fei Long accessory the more I use it on him

[@FREKKI]

I’ve wanted a great Ultimate Alliance 2 Cage figure since I first played that game and this looks like it’s finally going to deliver.

[@Xmanny87]

Oh yeah. It’s very reminiscent of MUA2

[@tomtudorweaver1078]

Had this on order from Amazon here in the UK, release got pushed back to later this month when I'd be on holiday, thankfully found the set today at my local comic shop and cancelled my order. This may be the best Marvel Legends 2-pack I've ever picked up, most of them have a clear better or more desirable figure to me but this set was perfect. Luke Cage is pretty much my mental image of the character and whilst I slightly prefer the more subdued design we saw with the last release of Danny, this figure won me over with how much more shelf presence the open collar design has. Luke Cage looks great just standing there in a more subdued pose but Iron Fist practically poses himself, they compliment each other so well.

[@stridin]

Thanks for the review. "Sweet Christmas" we need a new Misty Knight that old one has got to go.

[@TheGreatDayne1983]

And a Colleen Wing

[@Xmanny87]

@stridin definitely need an updated Misty Knight

[@sinchman1]

We need a new Sandman using this Luke Cage body mold

[@Slawhammer616]

This 2 pack is potentially set of the year! I love mine

[@Xmanny87]

Glad you love it

[@epiclvlpurple19]

See this is why I rock with you Manny u always on point. I have seen a couple of reviews of this 2 pack already and you are the only one to point out that the Iron Fist buck torso is different. Everybody so far has said its the same as the RYV buck and that's not true. Yeah we get it Hasbro is the worst when it comes to reuse but when they do something new its good to acknowledge that and give credit when its do. Thanks for another full in-depth and thoughtful review!!!

[@Xmanny87]

Thanks bro. You know I always got you.

[@ishieorbai3728]

I’m so hyped for this got like five hand ninjas ready to go for iron fist

[@Xmanny87]

lol nice

[@chadkinsler9865]

Great review homie , can't wait to get this set in hand

[@Xmanny87]

Enjoy it

[@edwardstewart6372]

We need a new DOC Sampson and a proper classic Wonder Man.

[@GameTime-yj6qv]

Its an excellent set. In my opinion they are currently both in the top 15 Marvel Legends of the year. Iron Fist is great but could have been in contention for Marvel Legends of the year if the pegs on the butterflies joints weren't visible when pulled back, if the shoes would have been sculpted rather than painted, and if he had new flame effects. Also, its shameful he cant do the splits even with drop down hips. As for Luke Cage, no complaints other than him coming with another accessory, such as a steel pipe like you suggested. I agree his body is perfect for Sandman and Hydroman.

[@bctan2291]

The best Iron Fist figure to date, should partner with classic Luke Cage in my opinion...

[@KawakiUzumaki]

that Luke cage figure looks so good that im even gonna buy the White Shirt + Black Shirt versions that come out next year xD. Hell they need to reuse this body for an Eddie Brock

[@solarflare9562]

Sweet Christmas! At last the heroes for hire we’ve always wanted, and once that I saw fully sculpted soles? Or partially sculpted it’s a start.

[@Xmanny87]

Yeah these are the best versions of them in legends to date

[@caseysmith3329]

These two look great. Hopefully mine arrive this weekend. I love the new Cage head sculpt. The previous one pissed me off every time I saw it. For accessories Cage could have come with the Wrecker’s crowbar. Where did you get the girder he was holding in the photo? I’ll use the one Hammerhead came with. It’s definitely time for more/different Iron Fist power effects. I also want to figure out how to increase his split range.

[@Xmanny87]

I honestly don’t remember where I got it from. Sorry.

[@jimwheeler9840]

Love this pack. Not sure about the waist on Fist (Where the open part just cuts off at the belt), but that is only thing at all (other than always wanting more accessories, of course).

[@alanscollection]

Can’t wait to have these figures! No regrets here 😁

[@bapo22]

15:54 He's only got the front row of his maxillary teeth. Them painting the mandibular teeth makes it more noticeable that the rest of the upper teeth are missing.

[@tonys_figs]

Badass bro, gotta get em.

[@Xmanny87]

Definitely a must get

[@ykarodrummer]

What’s the diorama base and crushed pipe luke cage is holding at the end of the video?? 😅 where can I find one??!!

[@derdrein]

Awesome review! Yeah this two pack is fire!

[@Xmanny87]

Indeed

[@suhtangwong]

The iron fist is awesome, surprised they waited this long, I prefer the v shirt as the straight lines look funky. The luke is nice but the pants suffer hasbro female/suited pants syndrome, it's a straight pipe/pencil proportion, no pinching at the knees and ankles.

[@kuldipbinning1989]

It's a great set, got mine last Saturday. The goatee is missing the paint. Samson would look great .

[@gsuplex4859]

[@troyr4521]

A "powerful" review, Manny. Can't wait to finally have this two pack in hand. I get my preorder from Amazon next month. Luke Cage is exactly why I've wanted him to look.

[@TheMdlopez]

I think we could’ve gotten a maskless Danny rand in this pack. But aye, this pack looks dope as hell. And we do need a street/ comic Jessica jones. And maybe a new punisher. And I agree, we need a steel serpent

[@graefx]

I appreciate the comparisons. I have every 6 inch Iron Fist, i don't like the RYV torso and wish they'd made broader chest/back/shoulders, honestly closer to how square the retro spiderman shoulders are, but Im glad the new torso has a little more meat. No splits is a huge gaff to me. But appreciate the separate skintone peices and accessories. Needs a smirk face though. I hope we get a bunch more IF figures. I need the most modern with the sneakers and the Fraction/Aja/Brubaker costume using the Shang Chi legs. No notes on Luke.

[@Xmanny87]

I won’t ever say no to more Iron Fist figures. I’d like to get a version with the sneakers too.

[@robertfalcone3025]

I just got my 2 Pack yesterday & i gotta say.."BELIEVE THE HYPE!!"..its as good as EVRY review said it was.. actually even BETTER in hand. When i first preorderd this 2 Pack along with Danny Ketch Ghost Rider & Astonishing Wolverine a few months back..they were supposed to be arriving in September..but this month.. July..ive already gotten Astonishing Wolverine & this 2 Pack..& according to Amazon i should be getting The Cabal 3 Pack & Danny Ketch Ghost Rider on July 24th..not that im complaining.. Btw Luke Cage Iron Fist 2 Pack is STILL AVAILABLE on Amazon..i doubt that will be the case for 2 long.

[@juleswinnfield616]

I believe that Iron-Fist has the hip joints that drop down, allowing for a greater range of motion. I don't have the figure yet, so I can't confirm it, but I think someone else said it on a video I watched.

[@mercentin1499]

I still think the luke cage body mold would be good for a sandman figure would be awesome

[@austincrafton178]

Great review that Luke cage figure is dope. Now we need Doc Sampson and mayor Luke cage figure and 2.0 Blue marvel helmeted version figure & Coal Tiger figure.

[@CandGoods]

I prefer the 70's Power Man look for Luke Cage, but as far as figure-wise this Luke Cage is far better. I have this pack on the way. We do need a new Jewel Jessica Jones, I'd like to see that in a 2-pack with either an updated Patsy Walker Hellcat, or an updated Purple Man, maybe a 3-pack?

[@jasonpatchen1912]

he makes a better road block than road block lmfao

[@philsavage7153]

It's A great Set! Think THE Luke cage will be Redone as Absorbing man

[@nicholascorrin4648]

Happy 4th marvel!!

[@averageyoutubecommenter1760]

The Russian would make for a another cool Marvel Knights BAF.

[@MrRobCo]

We desperately need new a Sandman figure on this Luke Cage body. The retro one just looks underwhelming. Updated Sinister Six box set would be great too.

[@eduardolamboy4776]

Instead of another modern Cage figure which they've already done 3x, a classic Steel Serpent should have been the other figure in the set. Ironfist doesn't exactly have a huge gallery of villains like Spiderman , Avengers and X-Men have.

[@dr.spideywartz7571]

Oh man i loved the character of the Russian so much I went on the hunt and have like 3 Russian customs lol 😂

[@grudgematch6653]

I’m so glad the human torch fist can fit on Ironfist as a chi effect. Also they really need to make a new punisher figure because I’m this close 🤏🏾 to buying the Mezco version

[@Xmanny87]

I think they’ll make Punisher using a mix of Vulcan and some new S.H.I.E.L.D. Parts

[@Ohcrapitsfrieza]

Luke cage upper body would be perfect for animated tombstone too more Bench and sandman , doc Samson all perfect for that buck

[@Xmanny87]

Yeah I’m excited to see updates of those on this buck

[@kwamintaylor4247]

Yep. Legends looking like the figure line of the year. Hoping SDCC solidifies that spot

[@Jimtopia]

We need a updated Punisher ,hopefully soon.

[@Xmanny87]

Yeah I want him with a mix of the Vulcan and the new S.H.I.E.L.D. Parts

[@shanehai2699]

I think you successfully offset the gushing over Iron Fist, with the nitpicks and complaints concerning the figure. Well done! Anyone who says you're a Hasbro "yes man" or "apologist", is clearly full of crap, brother... You are neither of those things! The Luke Cage looks really good too, although I do kind of prefer his Power Man & Iron Fist look for their duo in my display... I'll have to figure out a good placement for this version of Cage... 🤔 Great review of this boxed set, now, I just hope I'll be able to get these guys before they disappear or get some kind of crazy prices on them... 🙄

[@THEWATCHERISLOOKING]

Doc Sampson should be on the AOA sabertooth.

[@GamingMafia_id]

Isn't Doc Sampson the same height as Luke Cage in the comic? I think this buck suits him better.

[@Xmanny87]

@Gamingmafia_id Yes. Doc Samson and Luke Cage are the same height at 6’6. AOA Sabretooth is waaaaaayyyyy too tall for him.

[@eduardolamboy4776]

AOA is outta scale, way too big for Doc Samson.

[@namdinh8496]

Where I can buy base of them ?

[@gabrielswift4819]

Honestly Jada toys is absolutely beating hasbro in the ground with their street fighter figures. For the same price they give the same amount of parts and all of them can do the splits. I love this two pack but it’s lacking and hasbro is going way to slow with the updates to their figures that are simple and incredibly needed. I mean Jada literally has a Dhalsin figure with interchangeable bendy wire limbs. Yet hasbro can’t even make a spider man or daredevil figure that can do the splits.

Modern Luke Cage has the STUPIDEST costume ever. It's a black guy in a yellow shirt and jeans! THAT IS NOT A SUPERHERO COSTUME. I wanted the tiara and open shirt version because even though it's dated, at least it's an actual superhero costume.

[@chrisjordan8109]

Hired.

[@Xmanny87]

lol

[@stupid0244]

This Iron Fist desperately needed to be on a waist swivel. That new torso articulation is terrible on figures like this. It destroys the sculpt entirely. Luke Cage and Iron Fist should have switched articulation here.
