Bravo,stellar review! The aesthetics of theses action figures alone indicates must buy.Gong Studios has officially earned my money.That being said, as a superfan of William Joseph. Batson, The World's Mightiest Mortal,The Big Red Cheese. I feel obligated to fact check in regards to his true identity, with all due respect, his name is CAPTAIN MARVEL and as far as,my headcanon is concerned, he will always be."Shazam" is the wizard and also it's the anagram of the mythical gods of Olympus excluding Solomon.
@@thegoodthebadtheawesome and the same holds, true with your detailed-oriented presentation. Looking forward to your, next segment of series within your channel in the foreseeable future.
I got the exclusive SHAZAM! Loved it! I'm still saving-up for the Superman. At the moment I have the BMS Return of the King as a stand-in. Honestly though, they look great together. However, I do find the Gong studios version much closer to Alex Ross' art, so I'm still gonna get it as soon as I can. They're quality figs and they're practically the best versions out there right now.
I am extremely happy that those seem to have turned out EXTREMELY well. PO'ed only Superman, but I'm gettin' mine today, it seems and if he's good...I'm gonna do a 1/12 KC collection. Hope they run well, too. Sadly overlooked until now. Thanks for the review!
Nice figures,nice review. Too bad the extra heads are a store exclusive. I'm in Minnesota, and I'm not driving all the way to Rochester. 😅 89 a pop plus gas. Hope they make more figures.
Popmart is a maker of collectible Chibli figures and they seem to be quite successful here in Asia, with their own chain of stores. Though Popmart has a DC license and has put out cutsey Justice League and Batman stuff, I was surprised to find out they dived right into action figures (they have never done articulated anything). Kingdom Come is something Asian fans are only dimly aware of, at best. Maybe they would have heard of the story that Batman v. Superman cribbed out of. Or seen the animated adaptation.
You've probably figured it out by now but you bought the regular version of these figures from 5k. I've got the same figures but (deluxe, pop mart). A little moRe expensive but includes the other head for both figure! Also had its own listing on the 5k website!
Yes. I just received my shazam figure a couple days ago and omg I love it. it's probably the most incredible 6" figure that I have ever seen and I'm a huge mezco collector if Gong studios keep making figures like this they will put Mezco outta business and I'm being dead serious.
Just to let people know, I ordered mine from Toyzmetaverse and got the extra heads. I'm sorry that you didn't get them. Edit: They apparently carry both the regular and exclusive versions.
Yeah, I feel a bit cheated too. The extra heads were in the promo shots and I had no idea they are exclusives. I checked the chinese Ali stores and some are selling these figures with the extra heads. I think.
@thegoodthebadtheawesome The extra head is basically $30. The cheapest exclusive seller I could find wants $100. I got the base version for $70. So if you absolutely have to have the angry face, then pony up the extra $30.
These are gorgeous! I love kingdom come, and will definitely be grabbing these after this!
You will not be disappointed!

Touché. You got me on that one. Captain Marvel is awesome!

100 percent agree!

Thanks for the review!
Thanks for watching. Hoping for more!
Great video! What stands are you using?
One is a cheap stand I got from amazon and the other is a flight stand from a McFarlane Superman
scales great with DC direct, marvel legends, mezco and mafex
I have to get my first Mezco and Mafex to give them a whirl

I know right?! I reached out to popmart. Hoping to hear from them
Woah. I've never even heard of this company but wow.
It's freakin amazing!

@@joechang6345 they have been doing some other BJD figures of some of the popmart designer characters (skullpanda, molly, dimoo)

Cool! I need to get those deluxe versions.
Yo i barely got notifications for the superman and its barely on the way. Whats up with Shazam from 5k? How did you get these so early??
I ordered him directly from Popmart's website
About fire. Personally I think the shazam figure is the better of the to.
I would have to agree. I am a huge Superman fan but the Shazam looks great!

Nice! Hoping to hear back from PopMart

I am debating on getting extras for those heads.

Where did you order Shazam ( they call him Shazam now instead of Captain Marvel) and for how much?
Ordered it from PopMart's website and it was 85
Mezco obviously has no exclusive license for 6" soft goods figures.
Thanks for watching!
I got Superman at a Pop Mart store in Hong Kong, but it didn't come with the extra head :(
I hope they sell them separately
Can't believe these are licensed figures, I thought they were third party figures.
They are freakin awesome!
I was at a Popmart store in South Korea last week and they didn’t have these. 😡
That sucks!
El material del que están hechos no puede hacerse feo con el tiempo o por tenerlas muy pesadas como algunas mezco?
It seems to be lasting for me
shouldve put some mafex with em
I don’t have any mafex. I need to start looking into those
They are small by comparison. These are roughly the same height as Marvel Legends Sentry and Hyperion.
Some of the pics make the heads look a bit small. Is that just lens distortion?
It could be. The heads don’t look small to me. But I know the necks are really thick on these guys
I don't think it's small. It's physically correct. That's how we look when we beef our body in the real world.
Did you order direct from gong?
I ordered directly from popmart
