Those windowless packages are going to be known as one of the worst business decisions a company has ever made.
Gonna go down in history like 1.5 liter Coke bottles and New Coke.
its the dumbest thing to care about it oh no I can't see it, then open it
I know what they were trying to go for here, but this is just going to create more problems than it's worth. It's either we're going to have to open up the windowless boxes at the store to check them out before we buy them or wait until we get home to be disappointed like a kid that got nothing but clothes for Christmas. 🎄😣👕
@@bud_kleric2771
“Then open it”. And then you’d have to disassemble the whole packaging AROUND/ON the figure, you clearly haven’t gotten any of the newly boxed figures.
Yep. Why didn't they just use a recyclable plastic for the window display?
Turns out shitty packaging and shitty pricing isn't a good combination. Who knew?
Finally Legends collectors have grown pair and stopped supporting the BS
It honestly sucks that hasbro keeps making the prices more and more expensive on the marvel legends, classifieds, and lightning collection figures. For me I've actually started getting more mcfarlane and even some bandai products because they are overall cheaper by comparison. Hasbro seriously needs to realize that they are only going to lose consumers of their products if they with their current trend. It kinda hurts me to say this, considering how much I really enjoyed the past few waves of marvel legends. I hate to see the prices go up, but at the end of the day, I have to think about how to spend my money to get the most bang for my buck.
What’s crazy is that they are cheaping out on packaging but not changing the quality of the figure for 10 dollars usd more
@@knightzilver4696 Yesh, I'm just about on the precipice of tapping out. Thank god I chose to only collect a specific subsect of figures, otherwise I'd be ticked. As it is, I'm nearing a place where I'll be satidfied with my collection, and then I can stop.
@@knightzilver4696they are only doing this because of the inflation that's happening around the world
@@knightzilver4696 I'm no expert, but I suppose their zero plastic packaging is meant more as an alternative to raising the figure's prices even more (while keeping plastic windows) due to rising production cost.
The environment-conscious statement they have is more of a prettier excuse for their practices, because companies in general don't care that much about polution.
@@Rafael_R plastic price had nothing to do with it. Hasbro told shareholders at a meeting that they don't need to raise prices but they feel that the "consumer" (suckers) will still pay the higher prices.
The price change wouldn't be too bad if they did better with accessories. As for the windowless packaging, there are far too frequent paint issues with these figures to justify not having the window.
Hardcore Legends collectors pre-ordered those "Renew Your Vows" packs. They'll pay the hike prices. However, the casual brick & mortar store toy shoppers aren't as likely to pay the higher prices for figures, so BestBuys, Walmarts and Targets are bound to put these windowless box sets on discount eventually. Hasbro seems to be testing the market right now, trying to determine ways to continue to cut corners while charging extra in an effort to see how far they can push things before customers dwindle. It's like they're trying to determine what is cost effective in the ever-changing market for selling figures. It might actually backfire on them, because a lot of collectors actually can hold a grudge better than a ceramic cup can hold coffee.
The price increase for the Marvel Legends has really altered my collection. I also collect mint packaged figures. With the windowless packaging, I find it hard to trust that I get the figures I pay for. This new "environmentally friendly" wave makes me nervous
for the quality, price and windowless boxes, im def scaling back on legends.Ill take my chances and hope I find on clearance
No one should buy those overpriced legends let them peg warm 💯
They're getting to be a bit much.
i agreed with you
Agreed. Not paying all that $ for figures i cant even see. Hope that windowless fad hurts them big time.
even if US people didn't buy them, there are other people from other countries who would pay really well for those overpriced plastics.
@@ind0g_nesia First off it cost even more in foreign countries so if they buy it that's just their problem.
My issues with Hasbro Marvel Legends is:
1. They went up on there prices
2. The quality of the figures in my opinion is horrible. They just don't put much work into them.
3. It's hard to find some figures depending on the area you're in.
4. They constantly release the same characters with slightly different color schemes. *like Wolverine* how many of the same Wolverines will they come out with
true, marvel legends mcu moon knight are easily out of stock, now only piece of shit scalpers selling them expensively.
@@ind0g_nesia Yeap. It was so hard to find Ironheart. & when you would find them folks want double for the character
Wolverine is probably a bad example as his buck really does warrant multiple looks and versions. But you have a point with literally most other characters. It is getting so bad they don't even wait a full year anymore to just re-release characters.
@@tryksta7247 yeah I’m just tired of Hasbro doing a sheety job on their figures. SH Figuarts figures are better but way more expensive
Its definitely really flawed but as a collector its all I can really afford lol
People are swapping figs like crazy but with the new marvel boxes that’ll make it even easier yikes.
Ion get it why swap figs when they could just take them at that point
When someone bought that up to the legends team, they basically were like “Oh well”
Never happened to me.... yet
@@ultimateslinger9857 That's such uncaring jerky behaviour from the team
Legends used to be a collector's go-to since the whole purpose of the line was to be affordable and extremely diverse. Now it's just overpriced crap.
it's worse when you have to buy from third party sellers.
Not only is it overpriced crap but it's not even available depending on where you live.
@@danielcraig9666 yeah, if you live anywhere in Asia then you're f*cked.
As a kid I used to get all the Toybiz ones. Come back a few years later and Jesus Christ you can see the cheapness in the new figures. Old ones had so much detail, even had weapons painted. Now it’s just crap.
Same thing with blow up dolls. Theyd make beautiful anime ones noe its just meshed up plastic
If I can't see the figurine in the paint applications and how well it's done I'm not going to buy it Hasbro better rethink their whole packaging idea real quick.
I'd certainly love to get the Spider-Man ones but I don't have the room to be able to open and display them. At least my Mcfarlanes I can still look at and pick out a good one
@@davekolan862 oh I agree I'm completely out of room as well and honestly with the prices of these Marvel Legends it's crazy but I will admit McFarlane it's absolutely killing it when it comes to his figures of course I'm a huge spawn fan myself but other than that his Multiverse line is incredible.
Hasbro outscalping the scalpers
Prices are affecting my collecting. What's really killing it is having the ones I want only coming one per case. Not paying scalper prices for that one either. If I don't find it in the wild...i can do without.
Ever since 2017 I have tried to get every single Marvel Legend, but recently I was forced to cancel a lot of my pre orders in order to budget myself, which is the first time I have ever done that. The price increases are going to cost them a great deal of money, and admittedly at this point a small part of me wants Legends to die, which breaks my heart to say, but I see it as the only way for them and other brands to get the message.
Buy the Star Trek figures; the sculpts and prices are phenomenal.
@@kylekullin2520 How about the articulation?
@@jeffsoltess4853 Yes, superior to the old ones.
Insane prices from hasbro.
Yes the price increase is affecting me when it come to Marvel legends. I did the last thor wave. And unless I can get the figures under 25 I’m not getting them. I would rather get a import figure. That might be worth more than a marvel legend. The only ones I’m willing to pay out that price for is some of the wrestling figures and Fortnite. That is not a import figure.
Tbh i never have a problem with windowless packaging because i collect gundam but after seeing the review for the stealth future foundation suit, i see that the figure in hand is worse than what it supposed to look like in the box art and dont forget the price hike. Basically windowless packaging is not good for marvel legends at all and i despise the price hike.
I know everyone in this comments section is talking about them being overpriced, and you are gosh darn right!
I have 28 Marvel Legends, and I've gone to Funko Pops, because they're very affordable and just are great overall.
Here in Canada, Marvel Legends used to be $38 (WOW, I know right?), and now they have jumped to around $45.... WHATTTTTT
The Two-Packs are around $75-$95
When they started pulling this, I switched over to DC multiverse even though I'm more of a marvel guy. And I can say, the quality of DC multiverse is so much better and worth every penny. I bought the Atrocitus BAF wave and my god, the figures are beautiful. Not familiar with the Blackest Knight characters much but the figures are so good I don't care. DC has my money now. I say to every collector to give McFarlane's DC Multiverse line a chance. Most figures are a whopping 10 bucks less than marvel legends, and have better quality, sculpt and paint. And I am not sorry, Hasbro. You did this to yourselves
I’m not familiar with blackest night either but that wave of figures looks super awesome..
Yuuup price increases have totally removed Marvel Legends from my collection until they either drop in price due to stores being smarter than Hasbro and lowering it via clearance or Hasbro smartens up themselves and realizes they overstepped BIG TIME.
I slowed down on ML due to the price increase,but I’ll definitely keep collecting Neca.Great video!!👍
All ready started with the figure swapping, they replaced it with the Ben Reilly and some other fig I have not seen. I'm done with Marvel legends. Hasbro had been disappointing for years.
Marvel Legends not for the price, those are so expensive man. Same with AEW toys, my Wal-Mart has been sitting on them simply because they are now $24....crazy. I would rather buy McFarlane figures for $20-$25 and get a better figure with detail than any Legends.
Fr. All I collect is Mcfarlane and Neca. I'm thinking about getting into Selects to have some Marvel representation but I won't ever buy a Legens for 30 bucks. They're between $27 and $32out here
I'm certainly not paying $28+ for a figure I'd have to open to be able to look at or display well
@@davekolan862 100% agree, not sure who made the decision on that but they shouldn’t be making those types of decisions lol
@@craxyman9025 that is crazy, I can see $20…. I mean I would prefer $15 but $20 is understandable, $30…. Not for a legends figure.
I really wanted the Bone Crusher BAF, but I wasn't about to purchase all the generic random a$$ figures that no one asked for for $25 each to build it.
Walmart and Targets in Houston are full of "Bone Crusher" wave, "Woke Thor" wave, and the windowless figures as well.
I think it’s the change in the legends package. I get the environment issue, in respect of the plastic but it just doesn’t look as good when figure is covered
It makes it kinda look cheap, like a little kids toy
It is a little kids toy
@@davekolan862 buddy, might wanna look the aisle it's shelved
@@urgod4259 They're not
@@Owen-ub3fv they are. Marvel legends are made for children who wanna collect them. As a adult your opinion comes last
Great vid. Just a tad, jealous, just a tad with the selection at your stores. 😉 The WM near me doesn't even have a display or figures for the Super Powers figures. My search continues. 😆
The price hike is really getting me. I don’t wanna hear the inflation excuses, as other brands are holding price (Mcfarlane). If they were to start offering consistent extra accessories and heads then I would have no issue paying more. They need to remember that marvel legends is a toy brand, not a collectible like SH or Mafex
The price increase for legends is REALLY affecting my collecting I could barely afford a normal 2 pack but they are $12 more now and $22 figure is $27 now
Lucky!
Here in Canada, they used to be $38, and now they have jumped up to $44
So they removed the windows on figures which are frequently opened by people to steal stuff out of? The only way for real customers to see if anything has been stolen out of the packaging, and to see what the figures really look like and if they are damaged off the assembly line is to open them. That is one of the stupidest things I have ever seen...
This video is the most wholesome video I’ve ever seen just a normal dude going into Walmart and looking at toys
I work at a Best Buy. No one to this day has bought any of the eternals sprite figures. It’s quite hilarious as we’ve just moved her around to all these clearance shelf’s and still it stays untouched. The whole aisle could be moved around and then that one just sits in a perfect line LMAOO.
The price of collector toys has been going up for a while now. The bigger transformers (but nothing special) are $50 plus. Those Star Wars vehicles are over $40. Some smaller regional stores sell Marvel Legends for $29.99. That's a joke. What hasn't gone up? Buzz Lightyear has officially bombed at stores. They will never sell it.
Who's gonna gamble throwing expensive price tag on something they cannot check the product's QC?
There reported paint app QC issues with Spidey-Spinneret 2-packs.
Worst Decision by Hasbro consumer-wise by "going green" just to appease some enviromental groups just to "look good" for the company.
Marvel legends are far to exspensive now....but honestly what is really killing the line is the windowless packaging
How can windowless packaging be really killing anything when these are literally the first wave of figures to use it? Also last I checked isn't the internet a giant windowless warehouse? With this mentality I take it you've never bought a figure off line.?
@@tyestancil2783 thanks for assuming what my comment meant lol ....besides what it actually meant
Im 25 now. I remember going with my dad to KB Toys and getting a really cool very well detailed exclusive Shocker posable figure for like 20 bucks. I miss those days
I've been doing a lot of scaling back on collecting lately. It's been pretty unbearable to see all of these new Marvel Legends, Power Rangers Lightning Collection, GI*Joe Classified Series, WWE and AEW figures going up for pre-order right now. But when you see how much everything that I've just mentioned costs, you just can not help but cringe. 😬💰💰💰💸
Since the price increase, the figure has to be something I really want and a slam dunk for me to pick it up. Coming up with $20 here and there is one thing, but the price increase on ML coming at the same time everything else has gotten more expensive is a perfect storm for passing on a random figure.
For sure the price hike is affecting what I pick up. Not paying 30$ for a Jawa, etc. I haven’t been pre-ordering anything, by the time you get it with shipping, you’re spending 40$. Rather spend 80 on a Mafex or a One12.
Cardboard comes from 🎄 trees, right? More use of cardboard, more trees have to be cut down. Yeah, go green. Timber!
This video lied to me, when I went to my local Walmart and Target today, they didn’t have a single Spider-Man with Spinneret two pack from Marvel Legends! You’re so lucky, all I found was the Ned and Peter two pack and the one Spider-Man with the stealth suit or whatever and that’s it, but that’s not what I wanted
They’re also making windowless Star Wars black series. I highly recommend filming while purchasing and all the way to your car and open it in there while filming. That way you have solid evidence and you don’t get robbed. Keep your receipt too!
I couldn't help seeing all those boxes literally destroyed by theft devices they need to find a better way then that I mean damn that's sad ! . As for those marvel figures people are getting tired of the outrageous prices as am I our store has about 15 of each of them also which normally we'd see none lol .
I feel like that Hasbro should do what Neca does with some of their horror figures and have a window where you can open it and see what’s inside, while still having a windowless package but cool art as a cover
It's absolutely changed the way I collect. No more impulse buys. I'm a DC guy so I can justify $20. But close to 30 for Marvel and Star Wars that's were I draw the line. I guess I will have to live vicariously through you.
I remember back in 2015, when Pizza spidey came out, it was a man hunt, he was impossible to find. Seeing the renew your vows sets there in full stock is stunning and really highlight ML current state
At these prices, I might as well spend a little more and pick up Joytoys. I'm not as attached to the Marvel Movie Characters.
They could've just made the window smaller, like on the fortnite figs but they got rid of the window entirely. Not only is figure swapping a potential issue, but so is bad paint/qc issues.
The Walmart near me, all the figures are in glass case. You have to ask someone to pull them out good luck with finding an employee. They're never around. 😲😲😲🤔🤔🤔
Marvel Legends are far too expensive for what they are, especially compared to something like Mcfarlane figures
True that 💯
For a basic marvel legends figure should be 15 or 16 dollars let’s be honest, and I say basic. Something like retro Spider-Man at a reasonable price is 20 bucks.
@@fartpantsmcdingle Yeah exactly 💯
I def would have picked up the new venom 2 pack of A: the item was displayable in box with the window and B: it wasn’t gauging prices. Otherwise cool figure.
dont buy the boxed marvel legends figures at stores unless its the day they put it out........ already got screwed over with magic the gathering cards instead of figures and those were commons so ugh. do i return it or just accept being screwed?
I don't think Funko is dying it's just their behind in releases
To quote Hulk, “I view this as an absolute win!”
It's nice to see ultimate T1000 back in stores. For a figure from 2015 I was super surprised to see these popping back up again. Hope they also get the motorcycle cop version back.
Yes price increase has me sticking to collecting 2 characters. As much as I want to collect hasbro action figures and the likes, I value my acct balance more. Their loss. They’re trying to cash in on us nostalgic nerds but they’re over estimating the market.
I had to leave these on the shelf the other day, as I could not see the product and therefore couldn’t make a decision whether to buy. The dude behind the counter said he would take a couple out of their packaging and display them for customers but Id still be reluctant, as there’s no guarantee against CQ issues.
Also. Just a tip. You’ll see signage for some stuff. And as someone who works the toys and gaming section of my store. I don’t see like 80% of what is supposed to be lmaoo
Hell yeah its effecting my purchases. Upwards of 30 bucks for some figures that are just basic!! NOPE.
Luckily for me most of the "teams" and all that and alike for Legends I already have! Glad I'm not a new collector, I'll just say that.
They had the Hollywood hulk hogan action figure right there! 1:50
Yes 👍 I’ve decided if it not on clearance…I’m not buying legends.
Same
Time for some Mcfarlanes now
It's ridiculous how expensive legends are.it is affecting me.2499 now,mc Fairlane at Walmart 20 bucks.i started collecting when legands were 20dollars.year or two now they are 27 with tax.its bull.it bothers me
The was a little mermaid VHS ornament down there also. Those ornaments were dope
Where u can buy it target ? Like what store I always wanna buy action figure
yo I honestly hate how the figures are on shelves in walmart in this video but when i go to get it theres nothing there
Why is it so cool to see people see what stores have
Windowless packages lol. I'm looking at a new McFarlane Robin... withi his leg popped off. I've found TWO Transformers Arcee wheels on the FLOOR, because Hasbro thinks "no plastic window" is brilliant lol. And now figures that you can't see how bad a paint job is. Why are toy companies trying to destroy childhood happiness? LOL.
Another great toy hunt.
At the two Targets near me the Saw Guerra star wars black series figure will be hitting clearance soon the pegs are full of them and they hang on a peg for $39.99 but are actually $31.49 if you scan them with the Target app but they aren't selling at all most people are turned off by the $39.99 price.
cool video. raphael. I agree. the. prices. are. affecting the. collecting. thanks. man have a great. weekend
Finally the algorithm works. I’m chilling watching aos streams and your vid pops up. Good video man 🤙.
I've never seen any of those Legends at my Walmart. Some places get shit tons of them, and they won't sell because there's too many for the area and other places get brushed off. Not that it matters much with this wave. Outside of the BAF there isn't a reason to get any of those X-Men unless you want extra rifles packed in with Maggot.
The $5-6 price bump discourages me from buying figs nowadays. Maybe I’ll go for that spinerrette fig bundle. Love Renew your vows.
Lmfaoooo yooo that Walmart/target playing old Jason Derulo songs… I’m jealous. My Walmart don’t even play radio music…
It seems that Spiderman product with Mary Jane is doing good. The only thing that isn't doing good is the Spiderman with Peter Parker and whatever the name of the other kid is🤣. that one is lame. 🤫
What, not in a rush to spend $50 on a chubby Ned figure in a polo shirt? Lol
@@davekolan862 Lmao 🤣
I rather have Peter and mary jane not the knockoff gankee lee who isn't ned leed.
A Target I visited was sold out of the two-packs, but fully stocked with year old NECA figures.
I still Subscribed 😆 🤣 😂 It's crazy that you didn't explain about how damaged The Neca Figuers
I love the War for Cybertron toy collection it was fun collecting them.
The Legacy collection is starting off good so far, but my main issue is the slant on top off all the packaging. Its annoying because i cant stack these figures on top of each other now.
Pops aren’t dying they just started making wayyyy too many of each pop but tons of people are still getting into collecting them but a lot of collectors agree that they like the limited stuff much more
They had the whole bone breaker wave on clearance at my local target. And a bunch of Ned 2 packs and future foundation spidey. Usually never see so many especially spiderman
How the hell is the Peter and Ned two pack on shelves already? Hasbro said my preorder will be ready to ship on November 1st. If I find it in stores before then I’m going to cancel my order. Might as well not pay for shipping
That Future Foundation Spiderman costing 27.99 at a Target and I immediately put it back. But that's nothing with the price of some Star Wars Black series that goes up to $32 with some not even being a deluxe
prices are a bit steep.....most Legends are 34 a piece in Canada, but toys r us has raised their prices to 44 dollars for a standard Legend....Game stop tried it for about a month or so but put their prices back down to 32 bucks......I wonder more if people are getting out of the hobby of collecting
Only time I buy at TRU is when the figures go on clearance for 20 bucks
Windowless is not a good move. I rather see inside to make sure it's actually sculpted and painted right. Also to make sure it's not swapped.
My nearby walmart had the star wars mission fleets starships for $2..took all 4 different ships. The halos figures are $13.
The Peter Parker and ned Leeds 2-pack looks interesting so hopefully I can get my hands on that one day and I love how ned comes with a spider man masked head sculpt, as ned would say, "badass"
Hopefully those windowless packages will go on clearance lol 😆
I bought the whole Black Panther wave just to get M'Baku who was the BAF and they just release him individually a year or so later. Great.
Kinda scared of buying windows less stuff especially at Walmart
The last time I went to best buy it was just neca (horror) figures with windows in the same aisle and I ended up buying the ultimate predator jungle hunter
I’ve almost bought marvel legends fig with 2 of the same alternate hands (like 2 lefts I mean) so the window really helps
Pops will be in landfills everywhere in the coming years lol.
The black suites Spiderman is $33 plus tax at my local target. You gotta be kidding me. No way!
The removing clear packages was a bad not only can you not see the fully figure but what if they come with errors? ( hand mistakes , bad printing, etc”
its kinda dumb they removed the little window. like what if you buy it and it was missing different pieces. its almost enough to compare to apple removing the charger
Yes the price increases definitely affecting my collecting where I could buy two for like 45 bucks now I can really only buy one at a time I live in Vermont where it’s really hard to collect toys out in the wild like that if you get most of my stuff on the Internet
amazing your Walmart has wolverines!
We got the best Spider-Man figure in the renew your vows pack, but it just sucks it's not sold separately.
