I love when you hear the sirens in the back .. true a NY shit lol this figure looks amazing ! They killed it and it makes me so happy because this is one of the harder designs for me personally to translate into mezco form.. the Joe's are gonna be glorious
Your reviews are always so dope. Absolutely thorough. I adore the Classified Destro but Mezco's takes it up a notch or two. I'm just worried that once I start down the dark path of buying these versions... forever will it dominate my destiny. EDIT: I just pulled the trigger on one. At 10% off, free shipping (through EE) and your amazing review, I simply couldn't resist
First, your reviews are the absolute best...and I'm not even referring to the awesome pictures you treat us to. There is no one whose opinion I trust as much as yours when it comes to figures. The pictures are just icing on the cake! I will confess that sometimes, I mimic some of your photo poses when I display my guys. Second, as an eighties kid, I am SO excited for this line. I just went and order an extra to keep nice in the box! Hopefully we get a Cobra Commander, and Roadblock turns out as nice.
@TheSnowTheBlow it's biased because he enjoys the product? This is a hobby that's meant to be enjoyed. Not everyone likes the same stuff.. he always mentions things he doesn't like or will mention something that might bother people. Nothing biased about it. The internet is just too toxic
Destro actually does have an outfit with a cape. His head is gold and he’s got gold spikes on the shoulder with a red cape. That look has always been a face of mine
I pre-ordered this figure two years ago. It looks good. I hope it's as good in hand. This will be my first Mezco figure and I'll decide if I order more depending on how this is out of the box.
Great review as always. This is the Destro Ive been waiting for. This will be my 1st Mezco figure. I even passed on getting the Classified version when I saw the promos for this. Actually seeing it in hand was confirmation.
you're the luckiest dude i can just imagine how awesome your personal collection is :) i only have a few mezco one:12 a egg attack figure and a few star wars black series figures its a budding collection. i absolutely love your channel there's something relaxing about it
Thanks for reviewing him! I was on the fence about getting him but after seeing the details and accessories I definitely will be getting him for my collection! I love the use of the fabric for his suit. Everything just looks perfect! Also I love your Fwoosh green and red ninja that looks really awesome! Thanks again!😊
I actually cancelled my PO for this figure after watching your review. It's a great review as is typical of your content. But the design choices and changes Mezco made to his collar from promo pics to production figure are a deal breaker for me. The collar looks like a tufted pillow and the transition from the collar to "flesh" is bad. Thank you for the great in-depth reviews. You've both saved me money and cost me duckets lol
It looked different in like every Shot of the "proto"... there were shots of the collar looking exactly like what it ended up being. Esp the pic with all the accessories. They made it more accurate . Those proto shots were awful but to each their own. Hopefully you don't end up regretting it
@@miKeYdOEsNtLiKeiT508 I understand it looked slightly different any many shots. Most Mezco figure promo shots do. But rather than actually trying to comprehend what issues I'm addressing you seem to have attempted to "prove me wrong". "They made it more accurate". To what? The pic with the accessories? Look again, chief. The production collar is shorter and fatter. The collar was already one of the weakest design details due to the fact that Destro has never had a segmented collar. And it has never been "fat". It's hideous. Don't worry. I won't regret it. I don't really need croissant collar Destro with the laziest "chest paint" in the history of the character. Hell, I like the Classified version better than this stunted monstrosity.
@firmpulse sure buddy lol nobody tried to prove anyone anything I even said to each their own. This makes the classified look like junk. Your literally one of like 2 people saying this . But go ahead your right ! Lol 🤡 and more accurate than what it was previous. "Laziest chest paint in the history of the character" you are clearly a goofy go look at the character design of destro dude.. it's a goofy fn design. This is a fire destro. You clearly don't know wtf gi joe is.. he's had a collar that looked like this in the comics as well... he also is drawn with a even more ridiculous collar and if they did that you'd complain even more
I think my pre order is going on two years plus right now until I emailed BigBadToyStore. Now all of a sudden they have them in stock and are going to ship him to me. I'm ready to take photos of this figure out in the wild :P
I'm worried about my order. Gotten two emails saying they're having trouble processing the card (which shouldn't be an issue; card works and I've the funds) but they haven't responded to my emailing about it. I didn't place an order and wait two years for this just so it can get cancelled when there's no reason......past my personal issue at hand, good review and the figure looks great.
I had the same experience but when I checked my bank account the payment was processing after the 2nd email. I think they sent an email last week saying payment updates were required even if card info was not changing. Good luck man and fingers crossed 🤞
im struggling to get the batteries into his case. did you have any trouble sliding them in? and the stand. how does it go in the base? does that peg pop out?
Pretry cool , what's not cool is paying upfront with paypal since day 1 and then gets mails from mezco saying that your figure is on hold until you update your card info Wtf mezco
i pre-ordered snake eyes and also when is that morbius releasing i pre-ordered that ages ago i remember seeing displayed at toy fair 2018 LOOOOOOL thank god its the comic version because screw jared leto lmao
I don’t know. I never saw him as a chunky dude. He’s always tall, but not giant of a man. Maybe 6’4” to 6’7”? But when compared to the Hasbro one, they looked similar.
Camera was trying to focus on the figure behind your hands the entire time you were showing accessories, lol. Maybe just move him off camera during accessory segments.
Nice review, but not feeling this one. The head looks great, but the puffy collar is just weird. Like his suit has a built in life preserver that accidentally inflated, heh. The oversized boots also make him look a little too short or stocky.
As always you killed it with the photos of him. The review was rough with the focus issues. But I’m so excited for this one. And Mezco snake eyes and Storm shadow. Don’t really care for the Roadblock. But he was never a favorite of mine. I’m more of a stalker guy. Stalker, snake eyes, lowlight, hit and run, Tunnel rat, and night force outback make a perfect squad for me.
Super excited for this line so thanks for the review😁 I must say though the focusing going back and forth was a bit annoying Stellar photos as always 🔥💯
No matter how nice these are, I can't see the point of collecting this line. Even if they were affordably priced, It's still G.I.Joe, a Hasbro property made by a third company while Hasbro is already releasing their own, quite good versions. How many characters are they even going to make? 5, 10? The Classified line is approaching 100 releases soon and they are perfectly adequate.
Because this destro is going to look better on that Hiss tank.. options... imo this blows the classified destro out the water. To each their own. You could still mix it in with hasbro as well
I love when you hear the sirens in the back .. true a NY shit lol this figure looks amazing ! They killed it and it makes me so happy because this is one of the harder designs for me personally to translate into mezco form.. the Joe's are gonna be glorious
Destro has always had mad drip since he was first created. Glad Mezco was able to give him the treatment.
Your reviews are always so dope. Absolutely thorough. I adore the Classified Destro but Mezco's takes it up a notch or two. I'm just worried that once I start down the dark path of buying these versions... forever will it dominate my destiny.

Hooded Cobra Commander would be nice
@@miKeYdOEsNtLiKeiT508 Yes, they will do one with 12 extras headsculpts, all of them hooded. Yeaaah
@@maddrop lol
His reviews are some of the most biased. He never mentions any of the negative aspects of any of the figures. He’s a sell out and we all know it.
@TheSnowTheBlow it's biased because he enjoys the product? This is a hobby that's meant to be enjoyed. Not everyone likes the same stuff.. he always mentions things he doesn't like or will mention something that might bother people. Nothing biased about it. The internet is just too toxic

I could imagine how dope Flint is going to look.😮 Destro came out fantastic.
Flint is going 2b FIRE 🔥 🔥 🔥
Has Mezco announced Flint?
@@MrKrushgutz not yet
@@MrKrushgutz no, but it’s inevitable he be made eventually.
I’ve never been so hyped for a review like I have been for this.
He looks fantastic! I’m totally down for this lineup!
Thanks for reviewing him! I was on the fence about getting him but after seeing the details and accessories I definitely will be getting him for my collection! I love the use of the fabric for his suit. Everything just looks perfect! Also I love your Fwoosh green and red ninja that looks really awesome! Thanks again!😊
He looks great! Looking forward to the Mezco Joe line even more now. Thank you for the great review as always bud. 👊🏻🙏🔥
love destros gauntlets and boots. might get him for my assassin character to piece together
Great review as always! I'm relieved to see Mezco knocked this one out of the park. Hopefully the rest of the Joes are just as awesome!
0:04 “hey, what’s everybody!” Hahahah think you forgot a word there, bruh.
Major Bludd and Destro are my favorite bad guys from GI Joe so definitely getting this figure. Waiting for Super 7 to release their version of him.
Destro looks totally boss!! And with accessories to spare. Thank you for the review.

D has been battling his cameras focus for ever respect for him never giving up great review D!!
“How well you perceive the situation, My dear Cobra Commander!”
Appreciate you sharing your time and excitement with this one!
This figure looks much much better than the classified! So excited to get mine!
@D Amazing
Feedback. I absolutely dig the long photo shoots at the end now. Before when I watched it wasn't quite as long. Good stuff!
Just had a sip of water....and ordered myself a Mezco Destro
I think my pre order is going on two years plus right now until I emailed BigBadToyStore. Now all of a sudden they have them in stock and are going to ship him to me. I'm ready to take photos of this figure out in the wild :P
That head sculpt 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Damn! I definitely down for the mezco GI Joe line. I think a mezco Cobra Commander would look sick
I just paid for mine the other day and big Bad ass Toy store will ship it to me today so hopefully I will get mine soon
This looks great just waiting on mafex deadpool next or soon 😭since no videos of that yet
I'm worried about my order. Gotten two emails saying they're having trouble processing the card (which shouldn't be an issue; card works and I've the funds) but they haven't responded to my emailing about it.

I'm so excited for this release! Great review D!
Awesome as always man!! I can't wait for mine!!!!
Destro comes in tomorrow! WhoopWhoop!
I love your video on just about every reviews . The video focus has become more & more issues to watch
Awesome review. Picking up to display with Masterpiece Decepticons
This figure came out D Amazing. Excited for the Joe line.
Thanks for this D!
Nice figure 👍 I’m curious, can you fit those headsculpts on a Classified ?
This figure looks just Amazing!
That collar is hilarious.
This looks so good. Kind of regret passing on him!
Amazing review, as always. Does his briefcase top still open up to the lighted super-computer?
3:45 waiting for the cops to bust in....
DAMN IT MEZCO, WE WERE PROMISED A DOUBLE BARRELED ASSAULT RIFLE. THAT IS 100% A SINGLE BARREL.
Ummm no we weren't... this is the exact rifle that was advertised
@
D Amazing Does the Mezco Destro Firing Effects Missiles attachments are they compatible with both classified Series Destros on his arms somehow?
This might be the best destro figure ever created 💯
almost at 100K. lets go. Yo! can Destro smoosh heads?? Damn son.
I really enjoy all your reviews. I always give a thumbs up but lately that auto focus is whacked !!
im struggling to get the batteries into his case. did you have any trouble sliding them in? and the stand. how does it go in the base? does that peg pop out?
psyched for this!
I feel like you could make a Deadman custom out of this
Fantastic work, thanks for the detailed review!
Imagine a Mezco Zartan?!? 🤤
Pretry cool , what's not cool is paying upfront with paypal since day 1 and then gets mails from mezco saying that your figure is on hold until you update your card info Wtf mezco
That makes literal 0 sense. If you paid it's paid.
Eyebrows on a metal mask are so ridiculous. Glad they included the head based on the original card art.
i pre-ordered snake eyes and also when is that morbius releasing i pre-ordered that ages ago i remember seeing displayed at toy fair 2018 LOOOOOOL thank god its the comic version because screw jared leto lmao
D amazing awesome review cant wait to get mine!👍🍻
That roticulation so hot the fire departments coming
I knew this figure was going to be awesome
Awesome episode ❗🔥💯👍
I really don't understand Mezco releases...😅 Morbius was announced years ago, probably the older pre order ever now. Well, amazing review as always 💥
looks fantastic 😍
great video like always sir
That's an awesome figure right there.
No ultimates joe scale comparison?
Swimming in it? Cmon D you need to relax. Lol another dope review bro
I don’t know. I never saw him as a chunky dude. He’s always tall, but not giant of a man. Maybe 6’4” to 6’7”? But when compared to the Hasbro one, they looked similar.
Damn, good shit dude. 🐐
Cool review!!! Thanks 👍🏽
Camera was trying to focus on the figure behind your hands the entire time you were showing accessories, lol. Maybe just move him off camera during accessory segments.
What camera are you using currently bro?
I know the skin colour on the chest is accurate but it turns me off the fig for some reason
Love the destro
Nice review, but not feeling this one. The head looks great, but the puffy collar is just weird. Like his suit has a built in life preserver that accidentally inflated, heh. The oversized boots also make him look a little too short or stocky.
Very cool! 👍
Damn! Great Figure
Thanks for the review,
Boy look like Jeff Bezos 😂
Takin' trips and buyin' gifts, I'm sorry I'm not on that tip..
As always you killed it with the photos of him. The review was rough with the focus issues. But I’m so excited for this one. And Mezco snake eyes and Storm shadow.

🔥🔥🔥🔥
I hate that Mezco uses the same body for all their male characters. At $150+ CAD, there should be some distinction between different characters.
Fantastic…purchasing
Super excited for this line so thanks for the review😁
I must say though the focusing going back and forth was a bit annoying
Stellar photos as always 🔥💯
How do you think i feel? Lol
@@DAmazing leaves room for improvements or adjustments as you head into the 100k club🔥
2023?
its a camera issue not me. nothing i can do till i get new lenses
Wow!
Sweeeeet!!!!
No Batman 89😅

👍
Most of the video is out of focus 😵💫
Wish you would have shown the computer with the case he has and a better look at the wrist thing he has. Gotta show that stuff D
