I'm just now getting home, settling in, about to toss a sandwich together, and J Hernandez drops a new video. Yep. Today _is_ a good day. Merry Christmas, J!
Solid list. You made me open my Deadpool and Bob 2-pack since you put him at 2. And I completely agree with Black Widow. She is so much fun. Great video.
Great list! I didn't get a ton of Legends this year, I'm pretty selective with the line now. But MCU Green Goblin, the new Daredevil Elektra, Extremis Iron Man and Baron Strucker were highlights for me.
Ooo weee!!! Nice top ten! I knew I shouldn’t have watched it but I knew I couldn’t watch it! J always comes back and spends my money! Happy holidays to you and yours and everyone out there!
Yeah I've jumped ship from marvel legends, with limited budget, I'm going to mythic legions. More expensive, less articulated, but man they look better then anything on the market, and while I was super excited for doc ock and green goblin just releasing, my nostalgia button has gone numb 😂
Good to see you're still kickin J! Great list. I wasn't buying many MLs this year but you can bet I bought multiple BWs. My only fav of the year you didn't list was Spiral. Cheers dude!
Every time I see Blob with the screaming head the 1st thing that comes to mind is "Gay Frogs!" If I ever get one, I'm gonna put him behind a desk with that screaming head.
I don't think I bought a lot of new marvel this year, and most of what I have bought (all 3 no way home spider-men and doc ock) haven't shipped out yet. I will say goblin is my favorite.
Awesome list J. I wish you and your family and friends nothing but the happiest of holidays. Thanks for an awesome year and I look forward to next year for more fantastic vids and reviews. ✌️
As you were getting to the top three, I kinda figured out what your top was going to be. Glad to see her getting some love. One of the more funny things I've seen is people who bag on the Hawkeye figure because of the softgoods. I'm in your camp, I think that figure was awesome, but there have been a few reviewers who absolutely hate the soft goods on that figure. Many of the x-men 97 can pass as comic figures, so I've picked them up if they fill a spot, but I'm not in love with them enough. (plus this was a tight year for me, I even missed out on a Cap figure this year, which is not something that normally happens) Sadly it's been a long year (it feels like) that I can't think of which figures I would have swapped out from your list, I'm pretty sure Blade wouldn't have made my list, without a neutral head it really limits his usefulness. And I find all Iron Men to generate the same level of meh excitement for me, so he might not have made my list either, but that is nitpicky as again I can't think of immediate replacements.
Great choices on your list. I was pretty sure GG, Spidey and Widow would be somewhere near the top, was nicely surprised and the line up. Thanks for making this.
@@JHernandez Well, while this isn't my channel account, she will definitely be on my 2023 list because that's when I picked her up. Good to see you doin videos, man!
I just got into Marvel Legends last week, specifically the X-Men '97 line. Mostly because I like the X-Men and they looked like cool figures but also... there is only 1 Wave so far! No hate though, all your choices have absolute merit but for me... I only have a top 6 of 2023 and they're all X-Men '97! 😄
Especially your Cobra Commander video, it was FIRE! I received so much inspiration from watching your videos. Before your videos, all of my Joe's had one pose, standing straight like mannequins 😁. Thanks
1:08 well, not xmen '97, but surprised the character I played the most in CotA (primarily due to unsuccessful attempts to get Akuma) isn't here on your list. So, no Spiral, but hey... 1:41
Man, I'm really regretting dragging my feet on that Deadpool two pack haha. Gonna be keeping my fingers crossed for a reissue or at least lucking out on the secondary market. Also now you have me hyped at even the possibility of a brown suit Wolverine on that X-Men 97 buck! Killer list as always and Happy Holidays!
RYV is the properly prepared canvas on which to paint. Neck could be better with ball joint at base of neck. DP wears that body type well. The new female body type does need toe articulation. I’ll go top 5 as I’m more keen on Classified. 1-Widow, 2-DP, 3-Mindless One, 4-GG, 5-Animated Ock.
Damn, I can't really disagree with any of this list (though I'm kicking myself for not getting Bucky Cap!). I would also like to shout out the Banshee from this year. MUCH needed update of a classic X-Men (even if we're still waiting on the green suit)
@@JHernandez I hear ya, unless there's a new movie or a series that goes hard, we'll probably not see a new one for years. This one was just too frustrating for me though.
Well damn I realy never paid attention to that classic Hawkeye, now I regret now picking him up when I saw about 25 of the sets at Target. I wish the colors were slightly darker and muted, but he's a cool classic figure!
Great list! Black Widow is top of my list, also. She’s the only one I own from this list. That lady punches most figures in the throat. I upgraded mine for my own use with Lady Jaye hands, MCU Black Widow drop down holsters and belt and a MTF breacher shotgun. She’s the OTHER redhead in a jumpsuit on my Joe team. I don’t own Last Swing yet, but I think he would be on my list if so.
ML came in strong at the end with that NWH wave. I haven't loved most of what came out from ML this year. But I also know I bought at least 25 of those figures. So I got nothing to complain about. Just means some other folks got stuff they wanted. Blob and Destroyer are phenomenal. Widow is perfection. But, strangely enough, I think the stand out figure for me was Random from that Stryfe 5 pack. He's way better than that character deserves to be in figure form.
I limited myself to one Cap in this list, and it was Bucky. It's infinitely better. Ultimate is still very good, I like the alternate head sculpt, but the artic is VERY limited. As for Punk, I don't collect Legends Spiderverse stuff, I only get Sentinel's. There's your answer. Smooches. 😘
I do really want that Blade, but yeah, I passed on it (for now) because of the issues you mentioned. I also would have liked to see a stoic head you could switch to, but I do enjoy the snarling, fangs-showing face, too.
Here is mine top 15 : (order doesn't matter) 15. Hawkeye looks just perfect, wouldn't need a sky cycle but it makes him so much better, soft goods, articulation etc, only downside is that it is not so easy to pose him in the shooting position with this bow through this string. They shoud have give a second bow or another string to replace it. 14. iron man model 1 is I feel like perfect again I wouldn't change a thing. Cool paint showing details how old or rusty it is. Even though the colors are not expressive, it still stands out among the rest. And it's also really nice to hold him in your hands. he gives a nice feeling. 13. space venom. Even though it's mostly a rerelase, but I didn't have a chance to collect the baf. And now I will always choose deluxe first instead of baf .The new head and those blades add a lot more to this figure. He looks badass and considering his age this guy is still holding up and I really had a good time with this figure. 12. Ultimate captain America. As sentry said. This is my... maybe not my favorite shade of blue for cap, or at least a classic one. But for the alternate reality version. Well, this is my second favorite I could imagine. And actually, I haven't paid attention to the accuracy of reproduction for a long time. Only if it suits my preferences. And this version It's really solid in terms of showing a modern version that's more tactical than the typical super hero costume. The angry head also adds a lot of dynamics to it. And the shield has no holes, I'm really satisfied. And even though the captain has never been my favorite hero, this figure really deserves a place in my top. 11. Joe Fixit. Damn, how much I was waiting for the solid version. Miles away better than the baf. One of the best faces that Hasbro has made, a lot of expression, I can't imagine anything better, they could only add a gunshot effect and smoke from the iron monger. IT FITS VERY MUCH. 10. And now the situation is even more complicated. Because I couldn't decide which figure I liked more. Astonishing cyclops and the 97 gambit. I didn't have either of them in my collection before. So even though the gambit is mostly a reuse, this is my first exposure to it cause he was never one of my favorite X-men but I had a lot of fun with him. Maybe the only thing missing is a replaceable hand that could hold the stick more solidly. The colors of suit seems to me be best of all the ones made by Hasbro. Unfortunately, the coat doesn't give you that much range to express the poses. No double jointed elbows. The new head really captures the design and character. So not perfect but dang... I didn't expect. And astonishing cyclops, my second favorite costume next to jim lee. And this figure looks great and noble. But when it comes to dynamics, there is not much to replace and add more emotions to. If it had at least the effect of a visor being fired, it would add a lot more, but unfortunately it doesn't add much. But the design is still better than the gambit. And that's why I have a problem. 9. Blade. Unfortunately, I still don't have this figure in my hands. but damn, I have no doubt that it will be in my top. Lots of accessories, badass design, angry face, nothing more, nothing less to add. 8. Gamervese Peter Parker Spider-man Now this opinion is probably unpopular but don't care . IMO , it reflects the design better and is generally better than the previous one due to the head and articulation of the RyV. The colors don't seem to reflect what he had in second game. But I don't really care about it, even for me it's better because it stands out much more compared to the rest. Not too many sculpted elements but it still passes for me. However, I can't stand the fact that there are no full sets of thwips and crawlers. But I still had a lot of fun with him. 7. VHS Green goblin. Another unpopular one. Outdated body mold but how well does the head reflect what was in TAS. The colors are striking and since I really liked him in the cartoon, I decided to buy the figure. Maybe the bodymold isn't special, but at least it's more accurate than the previous hobtrash goblin. The head is simply phenomenal, the bomb is better painted this time, the glider. A new head that could be both Norman and Harry. It's a pity that there is no stand . And no fists, really? They gave them to MJ who wouldn't need them at all. Terribly frustrating. But I'm glad that I could finally add a solid goblin to my display that is at least a little close to the comic book one and therefore represents it for now. However, it deserves a better edition, namely the new deluxe from no way home. (Hobgoblin the same) And in my opinion, this goblin is the best comic book that Hasbro could make, none of the previous ones were good to me. 6. Deadpool. Finally the perfect definitive classic Deadpool I could have dreamed of. The only drawback is that it doesn't have a normal head with the spout at the back of the mask. And the accessories are mostly great. However, he would need more realistic weapons like the punisher had, black widow, cable, jigsaw etc... But hands, lightsabers, TMNT weapons. Really cool. 5. Extremis iron man. Finally a perfect figure that represents my favorite iron man armor from childhood. Although, more precisely, it is a Model 25, Pentagon like the on from toybiz. Overall, I think it's Somehow underrated. Nice paint job, completely new sculpt, good representation of the armor that made Tony Stark look more menacing and badass. 4. Blob Another great deluxe. I love these types of characters, funny and disgusting and weird and all. Damn, that articulation. Perfect design. Heads representing other eras. Well, I can't describe how great he is. 3. 97 Wolverine. Objectively, the best Wolverine in this scale from Marvel Legends. Although for me the VHS is better and more definitive due to the lighter blue, angry expression that is essential for wolverine. And this shading really makes it stand out. The only downside was that he had no fists and no head without a mask. And I wasn't supposed to buy this Wolverine, but I did because you can never have too many Logans and it makes me incredibly happy. Pinless, a different shade of blue, and a PHENOMENAL head without a mask. It makes it incredibly different from the other one. 2. VHS Doc Ock. man, this is a figure I didn't think I needed. Tentacles that bring a lot of fun. And the design is so iconic and outstanding that it is impossible to describe. Great reproduction. I had so much fun with this figure. 1. And the last one. Black Widow. Perfect figure. All the accessories I need, I really wouldn't buy another one, 3 interchangeable heads, each with different emotions, it's something great, but the classic long hair one with the mad face. My Perfect black widow. My favorite female figure in the collection and IMO best female marvel legend of all time, great articulation. but now. Another distinction that is miles further and much higher than every figure in this top, namely 6 figures from NO WAY HOME. 6. Sandman. An underrated figure, all the hands he needed, a new body mold dedicated only to him, Thomas Haden Church reproduced very well. and big open hands that can be exchanged with the retro one. 5. Doc Ock. Another figure I don't have. But holy crap. The tentacles are so long that you can actually recreate the fight scenes from the famous train fight sequence. Alfred Molina at his best. The fact that it can easily stand on 2 tentacles and interchangeable claws that also move. WONDER. 4. Andrew Garfield spider-man from 3 pack. Generally, I think that the figures from this box set were better for me because I prefer to always choose all pairs of hands instead of the head without the mask, which I would not use. But this spider-man is well AMAZING XD. Sculpture, articulation, texture, costume reproduction, the best I've seen in any other figure (FIGHT ME) 1/1 proportions, I only think that the red should be brighter, but it's not bad. But the head in the mask is...... well, I was enchanted. 3. Final Swing Spider-man, damn, that's a great figure. Pop colors that are a bit of a combination of Garfield and Maguire. And it gives a costume as close to the comic book one as possible. All the pairs of hands, the best articulation ever for spiderman, and Holland's head, the sculpted and painted webs that every PETER had. Lots of fun. 2. Green goblin. This is pretty much everything I wanted for this figure to be. PHENOMENAL head of Willem Dafoe, a million times better than SH.F. Here you can see the Goblin with this facial expression. Option to have him with: Just the hood, Just the goggles, hood and goggles, and nothing at all. And the best classic goblin MASK which is phenomenal again. Even better than the one from Hot Toys in my opinion. Articulation, Great sculpt detail, I am just stunned, I LOVE THIS FIGURE. Green, my favorite color, large and wonderfully reproduced glider, stand. And if a person really tries, he can be placed in SIC poses. Only downside is no full set of fists and opened hands which is a shame but..... it's covered by overall look. 1. And my absolute NUMBER 1. There could be no other way. THERE WAS NO WAY. My boy only true spider-man: Tobey Maguire Raimi Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man. I was simply moved. So far, when I look at this figure, I am happy. I've been waiting for this spider-man for so long, in my opinion it's perfect. Again, the best-replicated costume for me. All the hands he needs, eyes that, in my opinion, show him perfectly. This is my favorite without any discussion. NOSTALGIA won everything. And as soon as I posed it and looked at it, scenes from Raimi's films and the iconic soundtrack immediately came to my mind. I ADORE this figure.
12:02 this just isn't how marvel legends work... One good ML never actually leads to progress it just sits there as some remarkable stand alone item. A good example is Dr. Doom, that is still the best Marvel Legends figure ever made but it didn't lead to ANY actual progress in the toyline. It's a bizarre phenomenon. The only time I have seen them experiment and it actually lead to standing change is with the spiderman super articulated body sculpt which they continue to integrate.
I feel like Jada Toys is upping the ante big time these days, so if Hasbro wants to stay on top, they're going to need to up their game, too. Here's hoping 2024 sees them doing just that and improving what they are already doing well.
Hmm I'm going to assume you got spiral early in 2022, I always say that if she isn't on someone's list for 2023. I can only say Blackwidow and Spiral are the two best for me. Female figures came a long way this year.
Love this time of year
I could watch this guy talk about his top 10 bowel movements, two thumbs up
I missed u, brother! Your Destro video is still all-time favorite review!🔥😊
I'm with you on the pinless brown suited wolvie. Want a classic look all blue Cyclops too on the Vulcan buck.
Also agree with the shin swivel on GG and Spidey or take a page from Mcfarlane and give feet left to right swivel too
BW too
Looks an awful lot like my own top 10 haha! Happy holidays J
1000% agree with you, cant wait for a more articulated Black Cat, Spider Gwen, Psylocke, Elektra and many more!
Great vid as always ❤
Sup J , always looking forward to your end of the year list. I really like the Blade figure so I have him a few slots higher
Welcome back brother 🤙🏽 good to see your videos on our feeds again
Man, if destroyer comes with a second head doing a blast with effects.. that would’ve been 🔥
Awesome list and awesome holidays to you and yours my man!
King of reviews has returned!
An early Christmas present…a J Hernandez video…!! Seasons greetings sir, thanks for the top content this year and keep posing them Jawns in 2024…!
I'm just now getting home, settling in, about to toss a sandwich together, and J Hernandez drops a new video. Yep. Today _is_ a good day.
Merry Christmas, J!
Solid list. You made me open my Deadpool and Bob 2-pack since you put him at 2. And I completely agree with Black Widow. She is so much fun. Great video.
I appreciate you! Happy Holidays!
Great list! I didn't get a ton of Legends this year, I'm pretty selective with the line now. But MCU Green Goblin, the new Daredevil Elektra, Extremis Iron Man and Baron Strucker were highlights for me.
Nice always look forward to these vids sir!
Crime to not include that 97' Wolverine, its majestic
It looks VERY good, but I gotta keep strong, especially with the number of comic Wolvies we have coming this year. 🤘
Ooo weee!!! Nice top ten! I knew I shouldn’t have watched it but I knew I couldn’t watch it! J always comes back and spends my money! Happy holidays to you and yours and everyone out there!
Nice list! The ones I actually have from this list I'll agree with the others I trust your opinion!
Great video, great list!
Thanks for kicking off the Top Ten season. Epic start!
Always my favorite top 10 reviewer as alway!!!!
Nice list!
That was simple and direct. I dig it. I have six out of your ten figures. It was a good year for Marvel Legends. Enjoy your holiday J. 🙏
Yeah I've jumped ship from marvel legends, with limited budget, I'm going to mythic legions. More expensive, less articulated, but man they look better then anything on the market, and while I was super excited for doc ock and green goblin just releasing, my nostalgia button has gone numb 😂
Decent list. I would add the retro card beast though
Definitely a good'n. 🤘
Saaaaame!! I am waiting on that brown costume wolverine on the pinless body and hopefully toe articulation
Oh, yeeeeeeeah, I'm all about some toe artic on Wolvie! 🙌
Sick List J! Feliz Navidad to You And Your Fam!
Great video
Awesome list I cannot agree more, also I wait for you to put out your top 10 lists cause your one of my top favorite TH-cam toy reviewers.
Good top 10 list J ,happy holidays to you and yours!
Nice list. I’m with you on Blade. I wanna love that figure but ughhh man.
Yeah, only reason it's on this list is because of the character alone. Gotta support in hopes of getting a better one later down the road. 🤞
Always waiting for these thanks J for this content 💪🏼
I want Spiral on that Widow body 😬
great list!
this is the way to do a top 10 👍👍. no 20-30 sec animated numbers. all fig no fluff I'm subscribed as of now
TYVM!
Good to see you're still kickin J! Great list. I wasn't buying many MLs this year but you can bet I bought multiple BWs. My only fav of the year you didn't list was Spiral. Cheers dude!
Spiral was 2022 for me, she's great. 🙌
I want a really good Wesley Snipes Blade Legends figure. Snipes will always be Blade to me.
I'd love one, too. 🤘
Mine is easily the destroyer from the two pack. Then the Garfield spider man. And iron man model . And the comic starlord ❤😂
Cool list 🙌
Always great to catch a new J Hernandez video
How about top 10 thickest figures?
🤣🤣🤣
Absolutely agreed on #1. Best Legends fig and a viable contender for best of the year overall
Every time I see Blob with the screaming head the 1st thing that comes to mind is "Gay Frogs!" If I ever get one, I'm gonna put him behind a desk with that screaming head.
Now that's all I'm gonna see. 🤣
I don't think I bought a lot of new marvel this year, and most of what I have bought (all 3 no way home spider-men and doc ock) haven't shipped out yet. I will say goblin is my favorite.

You're not wrong, it's been a LOOOOOOONG year. 😅
Actually think you have the most accurate best of 2023 ML list…I’m in total agreement.👍🏽
You probably work long hours, but your reflections and toy comparisons are missed greatly.
Solid list, J! I’d say I agree with mostly all of your picks, I really enjoyed the Elektra from the Spider-Man wave too. She’s pretty slept on I feel!
Ya know, I have her ... have YET to open it. 😅
What hands you use for Blade? They look really nice on him better than the bare hands lol
I used Deadpools cuffs and Negative Zone Spidey fists! 🤘
Pretty bulletproof list, and at a length I could take it all in on my evening break. Fantastic work, J! Happy holidays to you and yours.
Great choices on your list. I was pretty sure GG, Spidey and Widow would be somewhere near the top, was nicely surprised and the line up. Thanks for making this.
With MCU guys on your list I'm surprised She-Hulk didn't make it - then again, she hit stores in 2022 I just i ddn't get mine until 2023.
Yeah, definite 2022 buy for me.
@@JHernandez Well, while this isn't my channel account, she will definitely be on my 2023 list because that's when I picked her up. Good to see you doin videos, man!

Thnx, man. All deleted. Most of my videos have expiration dates.

Spiral is 2022 purchase for me. Got her early December. She's great. Would have been #2 last year behind 3 pack Daredevil.
Great stuff! Anyhow, does it means no legends in your top 10 best figures 2023 vid?
One Legend will DEFINITELY be there. 😆
Man, I'm really regretting dragging my feet on that Deadpool two pack haha. Gonna be keeping my fingers crossed for a reissue or at least lucking out on the secondary market.

Epic top ten😎⚡💪
Damn, I can't really disagree with any of this list (though I'm kicking myself for not getting Bucky Cap!).
I would also like to shout out the Banshee from this year. MUCH needed update of a classic X-Men (even if we're still waiting on the green suit)
Heard on Banshee. It was tough finding a favorite in that blue/yellow set, loved Gambit and Psylocke, too. 🤘
@JHernandez Yeah, the Gambit and Psylocke were definitely awesome, especially those head sculpts
Im so broke i couldn't get anything from this year yet
Love ur reviews, ya lost me right off the bat with that Blade fig, and I really like Blade as a character
For me, mid-Blade is better than no Blade.
@@JHernandez I hear ya, unless there's a new movie or a series that goes hard, we'll probably not see a new one for years. This one was just too frustrating for me though.
Well damn I realy never paid attention to that classic Hawkeye, now I regret now picking him up when I saw about 25 of the sets at Target. I wish the colors were slightly darker and muted, but he's a cool classic figure!
Was Spiral 2023 or 2022? Because Spiral is amazing. Great list though! I almost have everyone of those figures. Have Happy Holidays!
2022 for me! 🙌
@@JHernandez dang time flies!
Always a masterpiece!! Fantastic Top 10 Legends!! Thank you for the epic entertainment. 🔥 Happy Holidays!
Great list! Black Widow is top of my list, also. She’s the only one I own from this list. That lady punches most figures in the throat. I upgraded mine for my own use with Lady Jaye hands, MCU Black Widow drop down holsters and belt and a MTF breacher shotgun. She’s the OTHER redhead in a jumpsuit on my Joe team.
I don’t own Last Swing yet, but I think he would be on my list if so.

Very true, if I had more of an attachment to the character, I would have been all about it.
@@JHernandez That's the strange part. I'm not that attached to him either. But something about that figure sticks with me.
GOAT
I love love your videos explosive hype please make more top list variety
Good pics Brother good to see your reviews again God bless and happy new years Hermano 👍🏻
🙏🙏🙏
Thanks for the vid! 🔥
Its insane that ultimate captain america and spider punk arent on this list their easily better than hawkeye and blade

@@JHernandez good look J! Merry Christmas and have a safe holiday!
1.) we need more of your content J. We miss you
2.)I agree about comic x-men. X-men are basically Jim Lee designs, which I prefer in comic form.

10. And now the situation is even more complicated. Because I couldn't decide which figure I liked more. Astonishing cyclops and the 97 gambit.
I didn't have either of them in my collection before. So even though the gambit is mostly a reuse, this is my first exposure to it cause he was never one of my favorite X-men but I had a lot of fun with him. Maybe the only thing missing is a replaceable hand that could hold the stick more solidly. The colors of suit seems to me be best of all the ones made by Hasbro. Unfortunately, the coat doesn't give you that much range to express the poses. No double jointed elbows. The new head really captures the design and character. So not perfect but dang... I didn't expect.
And astonishing cyclops, my second favorite costume next to jim lee. And this figure looks great and noble. But when it comes to dynamics, there is not much to replace and add more emotions to. If it had at least the effect of a visor being fired, it would add a lot more, but unfortunately it doesn't add much. But the design is still better than the gambit. And that's why I have a problem.
9. Blade. Unfortunately, I still don't have this figure in my hands. but damn, I have no doubt that it will be in my top. Lots of accessories, badass design, angry face, nothing more, nothing less to add.
8. Gamervese Peter Parker Spider-man Now this opinion is probably unpopular but don't care . IMO , it reflects the design better and is generally better than the previous one due to the head and articulation of the RyV. The colors don't seem to reflect what he had in second game. But I don't really care about it, even for me it's better because it stands out much more compared to the rest. Not too many sculpted elements but it still passes for me. However, I can't stand the fact that there are no full sets of thwips and crawlers. But I still had a lot of fun with him.
7. VHS Green goblin. Another unpopular one. Outdated body mold but how well does the head reflect what was in TAS. The colors are striking and since I really liked him in the cartoon, I decided to buy the figure. Maybe the bodymold isn't special, but at least it's more accurate than the previous hobtrash goblin. The head is simply phenomenal, the bomb is better painted this time, the glider. A new head that could be both Norman and Harry. It's a pity that there is no stand . And no fists, really? They gave them to MJ who wouldn't need them at all. Terribly frustrating. But I'm glad that I could finally add a solid goblin to my display that is at least a little close to the comic book one and therefore represents it for now. However, it deserves a better edition, namely the new deluxe from no way home. (Hobgoblin the same) And in my opinion, this goblin is the best comic book that Hasbro could make, none of the previous ones were good to me.
6. Deadpool. Finally the perfect definitive classic Deadpool I could have dreamed of. The only drawback is that it doesn't have a normal head with the spout at the back of the mask. And the accessories are mostly great. However, he would need more realistic weapons like the punisher had, black widow, cable, jigsaw etc... But hands, lightsabers, TMNT weapons. Really cool.
5. Extremis iron man. Finally a perfect figure that represents my favorite iron man armor from childhood. Although, more precisely, it is a Model 25, Pentagon like the on from toybiz. Overall, I think it's Somehow underrated. Nice paint job, completely new sculpt, good representation of the armor that made Tony Stark look more menacing and badass.
4. Blob Another great deluxe. I love these types of characters, funny and disgusting and weird and all. Damn, that articulation. Perfect design. Heads representing other eras. Well, I can't describe how great he is.
3. 97 Wolverine. Objectively, the best Wolverine in this scale from Marvel Legends. Although for me the VHS is better and more definitive due to the lighter blue, angry expression that is essential for wolverine. And this shading really makes it stand out. The only downside was that he had no fists and no head without a mask. And I wasn't supposed to buy this Wolverine, but I did because you can never have too many Logans and it makes me incredibly happy. Pinless, a different shade of blue, and a PHENOMENAL head without a mask. It makes it incredibly different from the other one.
2. VHS Doc Ock. man, this is a figure I didn't think I needed. Tentacles that bring a lot of fun. And the design is so iconic and outstanding that it is impossible to describe. Great reproduction. I had so much fun with this figure.
1. And the last one. Black Widow. Perfect figure. All the accessories I need, I really wouldn't buy another one, 3 interchangeable heads, each with different emotions, it's something great, but the classic long hair one with the mad face. My Perfect black widow. My favorite female figure in the collection and IMO best female marvel legend of all time, great articulation.
but now. Another distinction that is miles further and much higher than every figure in this top, namely 6 figures from NO WAY HOME.
6. Sandman. An underrated figure, all the hands he needed, a new body mold dedicated only to him, Thomas Haden Church reproduced very well. and big open hands that can be exchanged with the retro one.
5. Doc Ock. Another figure I don't have. But holy crap. The tentacles are so long that you can actually recreate the fight scenes from the famous train fight sequence. Alfred Molina at his best. The fact that it can easily stand on 2 tentacles and interchangeable claws that also move. WONDER.
4. Andrew Garfield spider-man from 3 pack. Generally, I think that the figures from this box set were better for me because I prefer to always choose all pairs of hands instead of the head without the mask, which I would not use. But this spider-man is well AMAZING XD.
Sculpture, articulation, texture, costume reproduction, the best I've seen in any other figure (FIGHT ME) 1/1 proportions, I only think that the red should be brighter, but it's not bad. But the head in the mask is...... well, I was enchanted.
3. Final Swing Spider-man, damn, that's a great figure. Pop colors that are a bit of a combination of Garfield and Maguire. And it gives a costume as close to the comic book one as possible. All the pairs of hands, the best articulation ever for spiderman, and Holland's head, the sculpted and painted webs that every PETER had. Lots of fun.
2. Green goblin. This is pretty much everything I wanted for this figure to be. PHENOMENAL head of Willem Dafoe, a million times better than SH.F. Here you can see the Goblin with this facial expression. Option to have him with: Just the hood, Just the goggles, hood and goggles, and nothing at all. And the best classic goblin MASK which is phenomenal again. Even better than the one from Hot Toys in my opinion. Articulation, Great sculpt detail, I am just stunned, I LOVE THIS FIGURE. Green, my favorite color, large and wonderfully reproduced glider, stand. And if a person really tries, he can be placed in SIC poses. Only downside is no full set of fists and opened hands which is a shame but..... it's covered by overall look.
1. And my absolute NUMBER 1. There could be no other way. THERE WAS NO WAY. My boy only true spider-man: Tobey Maguire Raimi Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man. I was simply moved. So far, when I look at this figure, I am happy. I've been waiting for this spider-man for so long, in my opinion it's perfect. Again, the best-replicated costume for me. All the hands he needs, eyes that, in my opinion, show him perfectly. This is my favorite without any discussion. NOSTALGIA won everything. And as soon as I posed it and looked at it, scenes from Raimi's films and the iconic soundtrack immediately came to my mind. I ADORE this figure.
I'm waiting too on all the comic X-Men I was tempted by that cyclops but still holding strong
🔥💯🔥
Great choices j!
Mcfarlane need a lesson from Hasbro about spike??? Lmfao!!!
Lolz, you obviously didn't understand the joke being made. Or did you? 😘

“Not true, I’m just Lazy”
“Also not true, I’m just poor”
💀 😂 💀
Excellent Top 10 ML list 🔥🔥🔥🫡🫡🫡
Fine. Deadpool isn’t number one. I knew he had to be top three! W
My number one would be SPIRAL 😊
12:02 this just isn't how marvel legends work... One good ML never actually leads to progress it just sits there as some remarkable stand alone item. A good example is Dr. Doom, that is still the best Marvel Legends figure ever made but it didn't lead to ANY actual progress in the toyline. It's a bizarre phenomenon. The only time I have seen them experiment and it actually lead to standing change is with the spiderman super articulated body sculpt which they continue to integrate.
Lolz, let's not get ahead of ourselves here. Doom is okay. We'll leave it at that. 😂
'Figured' you'd have Deadpool at the top of the list. I shan't spoil your Number 1 by mentioning it here
97 wolverine looks identical to the comic version
While the bod still maintains the tiger stripe accuracy, head sculpt is still more of an animated look. Not my thing.
@@JHernandez ehh I disagree but to each their own. They're using the new 97 unmasked head on comic wolverines so it can't look that different
@maddexjoseph3138 Different enough. Not spending my money on it. I want something official.
I feel like Jada Toys is upping the ante big time these days, so if Hasbro wants to stay on top, they're going to need to up their game, too. Here's hoping 2024 sees them doing just that and improving what they are already doing well.
Hmm I'm going to assume you got spiral early in 2022, I always say that if she isn't on someone's list for 2023. I can only say Blackwidow and Spiral are the two best for me. Female figures came a long way this year.
Nah mcfarlane can keep the spikes. Pain is pleasure 🤷🏾♂️
🤣🤣🤣
Half of this list should be spider man across the spider verse figures.
Lolz, yeah, no. Not for me. 😂
Romanov in shriek pinless body and a new long hair head for classified gijoe scarlet yes yes no uno indeed, my no 3= capt A.
Hehe hehe hehe hehe hehe yall
I enjoyed the Mary-jane Waston figure better than the Blade figure. 🫠
That's fair. Better poseability, that's for sure.
