    I give them no credit for the way Flint came out compared to the advertisement. Put him and Duke side by side. You’ll be able to tell the failure in the head sculpt and lack of paint right away.
    Flint looks like a flea market pick up

    ....the lack of head paint is 100% unacceptable for the price we are paying! If this is the new quality standard for all waves going forward. Then I am out on this line. They should cut accessories to bring the paint quality back up to the same level. An Super 7 100% should give us pack in replacement PAINTED heads in a upcoming wave for ALL of the unpainted heads that were in wave 2!!! This company is loosing our trust HARD AND FAST anymore with the constantly HEAVILY INCONSISTENT paint quality or QC problems!

      couldn't have said it better I have been pushing for this line with all of my friends being told that this line is going to be terrible. Wave one came out it was great and now I'm standing here with egg on my face with my friends, saying see told you you could never trust them. Very disappointing.

    I've just been convinced to skip Flint and Lady Jaye until they are discounted. I'm really tired of all these companies advertising a certain look through renders and then the quality of the faces end up completely looking like crap on the actual product. Classified is also guilty of this.

    Thanks for the review. You are being too generous on the default head & the one with the headset. They're not that great & the eyes are terrible. The smiling head is the best of the 3.

    I wish they would go back to the string twist ties. It was so easy to just twist them off. Where did you get those plastic clippers?

    Way back in 2014 or 2015, there was word that Super 7 was picking up the Masters of the Universe Classics figure line from Mattel. I was skeptical, as I had never seen Super 7 produce anything besides cheap, plastic, Party City grab bag toys and wind up dinosaurs. Well, looking at the quality of its 6" and 7" figures, I can say that Super 7 still produces cheap plastic Party City grab bag toys, just in larger scale.

    The paint missing on the face and arms is a big miss. The price point of Super 7 makes it so that the figure needs to be absolutely outstanding. Classified figures have their issues, but they're less than half as much upon release. And, honestly, I like the feel of the classifieds more than many Super 7 figures.

    Im all in. I prefer the look more than anything else. We never had the cartoon pop up in front of us. This is for collectors who dont care about articulation.

    I pre ordered these based on the last wave being good, and the pictures advertising these. Last time i do that. Lady jaye and flint's faces look comically bad compared to what was shown/expected.

    You are far too kind on liking the head sculpts on Flint, they are abysmal.
    Sure this is cartoon Flint but the art renders for this looked like the Sunbow version & looked good.
    Duke looked much better.
    For the price point, the head/faces need to be far superior to what these finished pieces look like.
    I’d go so far as to say they make the entire figure look like a cheap knock off toy. Only a heavy discount will get me to purchase. $25-30 tops.

      @@NeedlessThings It has nothing to do with taste or perception..it has to do with quality. The quality of those heads are bad.
      Compare it to the Duke figure.
      It’s likely a different factory made this wave & for the worse. Super 7 need better QC.

    • @NeedlessThings
      @NeedlessThings  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Regardless of how you want to categorize our difference of opinion, you're absolutely correct that Super 7 needs to reign in the QC and get some consistency. The figures need to match and the parts on the figures absolutely need to match.

    @falcon048 ปีที่แล้ว

    I just can't justify the price. To me, these are $32 dollars. That's the price point where I would consider collecting these. For $55, they needed to be better articulated and better executed. I have Cheetarah and Steelheart and I am just not all that pleased with their value at the price point they came in at. I admire their design aesthetic and I appreciate the nostalgic look, but I don't see these as better than Classified. I am also just realizing that the weapons don't have blast effect holes. So, these really aren't designed for setting up action-oriented scenes. They appear to be mildly-articulated statues; which I know a lot of collectors basically want. They're going to pose them up and put them on the shelf.
    I keep watching these reviews, hoping they'll excite me into getting them, but they apparently aren't for me. :(
