- A look at the Dreadnok "3 Pack" of Dreadnok Gnawgahyde, Porkbelly the warthog, and Yobbo the monkey as well as a comparison to the previously releases Dreadnoks!
One thing I don`t like about the classified figures is both cobra and joes are shopping from the same army surplus store:)
Yeah I'm not a fan, but maybe they both buy from MARS 😂
Your grandma's backgammon table. Lol.
It's become a common theme to get Classified figures for the characters and load them up with Vala or Gridiron accessories. If only they made better weapons, we won't have to spend so much extra. Almost all main weapons in recent Classifieds are useless, no amount of hot water / dryer treatment can fix them.
Nice and super honest review but yeeeeah!
Im not in a rush for this one... Maybe somewhere down the line eventually.🎉🎉
Yeah I was looking forward to getting this...but not so much now 😒
I almost wanna cancel my pre-order! Smh..quality control sucksssss balls!
I almost wanna cancel my pre-order after this! The figure himself looks great though..but quality control on the loadouts is atrocious!!!!!!
Good honest review Bobby, not one that I sought to get but he’s a cool addition to them overall but I think I’ll miss on this dred
I took off the dogtags on mine. Made the tooth necklace sit way better.
I want all the Dreadnoks!
Great review B🤘🏽! I’m going to switch out his loadout. The case I got doesn’t close all the way and the machete is curved as 💩. I’m going with the Blue ninja bow, scoped rifle w/silencer from the Viper 3pk, Shadow Tracker quiver & arrow and a Valaverse machete. It’ll look better suited for him(IMO). I’ll mod the quiver to hold his weaponry. I would switch the knives with two Valaverse Rambo knives but the sheaths are too small.
Yep my case doesn't shut properly either. He's begging for a Gridiron kit out that actually does him justice.
Despite his failings, I will pick Gnaw up. I dig the poacher vibe. Reminds me of Skinner from the Jurassic Park Evil Raiders. I hope they do a deluxe Storm Rider and a new bike!
I 💯 agree with you people at hasbro really don’t care (nothing new) and they are just shoving shi out as fast as they can becasuse they know everything will get bought and sold for double. Great review bro, always look forward to yours
Can’t wait to get him. Just got notification from hasbro
I always like the vintage version, so I'm excited for this figure. I don't mind the reuse all that much, and I never even think about pinned joints until I hear someone talking about them. I look at the monkey as just a throw in, since the vintage figure didn't have that, so I don't mind it being a figurine. I do not like the the boots. The legs are fine for generic pants, but those shin guards really limit the foot articulation, and like you said, can make the figure hard to stand. The bow is disappointing. That's my favorite bow design from the line, but the floppy plastic is ridiculous. I love Classified, but I don't get their floppy weapons. There's no rhyme or reason to it. We've griped about it for years now, and it's still not fixed. At this point, I'd rather them just come out and tell us that they are not changing it, because I doubt they ever will.
To be fair he was a bigger toy from what I remember so the RB base would work... they just needed to swap to Bazooka's legs.
Bazooka's legs suck too. They need to do a new lower body mold for larger figures.
@@M27ha They don't have the knee pad though so auto upgrade :P
He’ll be on clearance by September
Yeah the bigger sets seem to be doing that recently
Should have just made the OG recurve bow.
Getting him, but honestly I kinda wish it was just him, I don't really care about Porkbelly and Yobbo. I really don't think we NEED every pet to be made for various characters. Some yeah, Timber, Polly, Freedom, Junkyard and Order most definitely we need, and Fiona was just too good, but these two are kind of pushing it. I appreciate the effort, but I'd rather have had a whole new buck for Gnawgahyde instead of an articulated Warthog and a solid plastic monkey.
I hope we get Zandar next, but I hope they do an update on him and not just a 1:1 of his classic design. I'd like to see Zandar improved as his design was always kind of goofy too me.
Agreed, we don't need exactly everything but if they didn't include the warthog, all the old guys would lose their minds
@@beesbattlegrounds Yeah probably. At least we only have a couple more pets left. Order and whatever Raptor came with. Not really sure if any other characters had a pet. Hopefully they don't keep packing the repaints with the pets, u less it's Shipwreck, Law & Order and Mutt & Junkyard. Those are the only characters I think should always come with their pet. Don't always need Timber or Freedom with every Snake Eyes or Spirit.
A first-rate review of this cool set!
I've got him ordered, but he definitely falls short on expectations, especially this late in the line. Does the head sit low on the neck, or is that just because of the jewelry?
Another Bobby B banger!!!
Black series weapons aren’t all gummy and floppy like that and they are made by Hasbro so when they said they have to make the weapons like that for safety reasons because the box says ages 4 and up that was obviously a complete lie and they clearly did it to save money and increase there profits , I think the last I heard Lenny had said the gummy weapons would be phased out by 2025 🤷🏻
He's gonna ship soon. Looks a little meh, but I may actually look into a Gridiron loadout for once. I always appreciate your honest reviews.
I think a lot of people are hoping for a Gridiron drop for him
I have no issues with the RB/GH upper torso, but the legs were a miss for sure -- not because they don't stand, but because they don't fit the character. Yobo just sits on the shoulder based on the other reviews I've seen, odd that he can ONLY do that though. Pork Belly and Gnawgahyde look good to me overall...that wart hog is pretty incredible, but I guess that's par for the course with Classified now. I am a little confused about the idea that the buck doesn't stand. I went a little overboard early in the line in order to do some customs - not knowing how long it would last - and I don't have any issues standing the big boys up. Does feel as though we got this figure mold to recoup the cost of the pig though. People have to decide if that's worth it.
The buck just very finicky to work worth for posing in my experience. He looks fine, but I would have preferred a different lower. As for the monkey, even on his shoulder, it looks "off" even in the promo shots
@@beesbattlegrounds Agreed on both counts. Strongly disliked the lower choice for this character...Sarge would've been better, but this is one of those situations where they probably should've waited until they could justify a new sculpt. He's a low key cult classic, but no one was clamoring for him; futuristic sci-fi legs just don't work for tropical backwoods poachers. The warthog sadly ensures I will pay full price though. Such a mark...
Definitely going to need Gridiron for an alternative loadout here.
Yeh when we really shouldn't at that price point
@@JurassicJoe18 Agreed. We shouldn't regardless. It looks like some of the recent releases are improving weapons durometer, which is good. The story is that this was a factory issue based on compliance with the 4+ rating for the toys. It takes like 12+ months to fix that given production cycles, so I will be patient. I like a lot of what this line does. Interestingly, early on the weapons were well done, just weird. When they went more realistic, they became lower quality. Hopefully they strike a balance. Still though, I am overwhelmingly concerned with the figures themselves, and for the most part, Classified crushes it. Lots of variety in sculpts relative to other 6 inch lines -- even if this guy isn't a good example of that.
@@JurassicJoe18 Only other thing I would say -- the animal companion is brand new sculpt and covered in paint. That's what you're paying for. You gotta decide if it's worth it.
@smyers9052 classified is awesome, no doubt about that! Haven't skipped a single figure yet! Just saying the bendy guns piss me off and that shouldn't even be an issue at this price point
@@JurassicJoe18 100% agree
Yeah mine came in a soft rubbery plastic so the whole figure wobbles and all his gear falls off all the time.
Just going to remove all his gear and shirt and make him a big muscle guy to fight my Indiana Jones.
That’s disappointing. I had the O Ring figure and I’m a sucker for the Noks. How, how are we still getting floppy, limp-dick weapons? And how do they not do something with the monkey to be able to sit on anything that isn’t his shoulder. I get they are going to reuse to save money, but can they use more recent bodies? Ugh. Thanks for the honest review Uncle Bobby.
Just got mine on Saturday. If that bow was so rubbery it would’ve broke coming out of the packaging. I had to bend Torch’s pistols back into shape too. I guess I’m going to have to start heating the packages. Ugh.
Seems you had similar issues that I had with it, bro. That wrist-chete being so bent stinks, but at least the attachment points weren't stress fractured like mine. Interestingly both yours and Punk's Porkbelly had a case of slack jaw. I need to check mine because I don't recall that being problematic. For a deluxe price point, we should be getting better quality overall, but this set struggles on that front.
Yeah, this set feels rushed in a way
@@beesbattlegroundsDamn straight, brother.
He needs night creepers cross bow
Great review. This is looking like the most disappointing classified figure of the year. They really need to abandon the old early classified molds at this point. Great point about the monkey articulation. When the Star Wars black series team beats you in articulation for the same animal, that is pretty bad. 😂
I mean, you're paying $30 for a monkey that has a hinge in it and an Indy figure vs. a fully articulated warthog plus the figure and many more accessories. Not a fair comp tbh. The monkey is part of a set, that's how they cost these out.
Funny Zartan and Gnawahyde look out of place. I've always thought Zartan needed to be with Star Wars or Assassin's Creed and Gnawahyde looks like a Black Panther Villian (Which is who I'm putting him with.)
I just cancelled my pre-order based on this. The legs suck, the loadout is mostly reuse and the monkey is useless. Give him Spirit's rifle, Copperhead's machete and a unique animal trap and I dont mind. And why is he wearing gloves? Make some damn flesh-coloured hands, Hasbro! Cheers Bobby for the review.
Oof..Brutal review.But it's all warranted
5 years in, there shouldn't be any excuses
@@beesbattlegrounds 100 percent...The Retro Trooper wave disappointed me greatly with the reuse of nearly every piece of gear..At this rate,their better off releasing figures with no gear,and letting the 3rd party guys make money
@aaronchandler8569 yeah a 5 year old figure with some new accessories? Why not just use the Python Officer build but in blue? That's what I was hoping for
The monkey is disappointing as hell compared to the smaller Indiana Jones one. I love classified I'm just so done with hasbro I missed getting the vamp and ferret and they know we'll buy them why won't they put them back in stock? I have a grid iron bow and quiver I'm using for him
They are way past needing to fix the weapons
I wanna get this guy just to to have all the Dreadnoks… but using these legs is borderline unacceptable to me. I don’t mind parts reuse for the most part but holy hell..old ass buck reuse has got to stop. The Joe line is still, imho, the best line Hasbro does.. and it seems the steam still cares for the most part.. but this is like Marvel Legends lazy lol.
But these deludes that go for 35+ should have limited reuse imho.
I’ll probably eventually get him but it’s gonna be when he’s on Amazon or Target clearance. He’s not a “main” Dreadnok to me maybe I’ll get him and eventually do a custom lower body for him or something lol.
Im with you on the old buck. They need to go all in all pinless figures. I’m not sure if I’m going to get this. I want all the dreadknocks but this will have to be a pass, unless there is a deep discount. Most figures I buy no matter what line except Mcfarlane I’m going for pinless figures, I’m no longer a completest, and no matter how stupid the owner of a company is or how often he gets hand jobs from his TH-cam acolytes. I’ll judge the toys on their own merit.
Passed on this one way too much re-use foe tnough porkbellyy looks good but not enough to drop 60 bucks
If I wouldn’t have gotten this preorder for cheap back when Walmart made that price mistake I would cancel. These accessories are ass.
the weapons just keep getting worse. i will wait till i see this for cheap.or just pass on it. i like your reviews because you don't worship hasbro. But you also don't worship vala.
