Robo there's no need to justify mixing Fortnite with other lines... They have Marvel, Star Wars, DC, and waaaayyyy more skins in Fortnite lol. also I HIGHLY recommend the Victory Royale Jules. She is probably the most beautiful figure I own at the moment. They did a great job on her

And snake eyes can't wait for him
Quick-ish explanation of who each character is, for Robo and people who don't know Fortnite: Midas is the leader of the Ghost and Shadow organizations, of which Chaos Agent and Lynx are members of. He pulled a Palpatine and orchestrated a war between both factions so he could distract the Imagined Order (The organization that controls the Fortnite world) and build a device to defy their rule, but his device failed and flooded the Fortnite island. He wore the "Midas Rex" armor after being devoured by a shark, think of it as a "Darth Vader" armor. Lynx is a member of Ghost and Chaos Agent is a member of Shadow. Chaos Agent was one of Midas' three original enforcers, he's a mad scientist who experiments with Slurp Juice, he also created Ripley and an army of red evil versions of him, named Sludge. Ripley is one of Chaos Agent's experiments. He's a blue blob.

"He's a blue blob." Perfect explanation of Ripley lmao. I would also like to add that Ripley was one of the members EGO sent to explore the island after the Black Hole event. A loading screen also shows him rising out of slurpy swamp so he may be an organic creature rather than a failed experiment.

@@cincila6981 It does, the mini-series takes place during Chapter 2 Season 6 and dives into the origins of the Island, the Imagined Order, the Loop that keeps everyone trapped, and so on. It's both a great tie-in comic, and a fun Batman story. The Marvel/Fortnite: Nexus War and Batman/Fortnite: Foundation comics also fit in with game lore, the former acting as a prologue to Chapter 2, Season 4 (which was completely Marvel themed) and the latter tied up some loose ends from the previous Batman/Fortnite comics, and set the stage for a major Fortnite character to make his long-awaited return in yesterday's Fortnite live event.
Midas instantly reminded me of Marvel’s Universal Church of Truth (comic designs). He’d look great on a GOTG display.
I'm just like Robo with this toy line. I have never played Fortnite and know absolutely nothing about it, however I love the action figures and can't resist buying them. They do fit in with Marvel Legends rather nicely.

A couple observations comparing the figures to the game: Midas should have two swords, they're the Kingmakers. Rippley and Lynx don't have those back blings in game, those sets don't have back blings period. This last one is just a game lore thing, but Rippley is a being made out of living Slurp (what the little blue jars are filled with) so he could fit in perfectly with the food themed figures released by jazwares.

They all look incredible. Ripley makes me think of Hydroman...excepting the fish of course. Chaos Agent has an alien humanoid bug-like quality. Midas Rex could be an evil Cyborg or gun slinging knight, though I don't think the six shooters fit the asthetic so well as maybe some big ass laser guns🙂 Lynx could be an armoured up Black Cat/Catwoman, or just another high tech badass.

Another amazing review
I have always been on thr fence with these figures. This just sent me to the other side of the fence. They are really cool and now another line I'll be adding a few to my collection.
The triangles on Lynx remind me of carbon fibre. Midas could be a time traveler with the armour & random pistols. Ripley looks fun, I may get him because he just looks fun & could have a funny voice in my mind.
I loved the Jazwares figures, but I think these are a great improvement in terms of articulation. Jazwares always felt rigid and "clicky" to me if that makes sense. Excited to see this line continue.
Me I have no interest in this line, but I’d consider picking up Midas for some custom fodder. I think he (with a navy blue paint job) could make a stand in Gi Joe Overkill, and the holsters could work for a potential Wild Bill
That Midas has a good base for Bravestar. Find ya an extra Spirit Ironknife G.I. JOE, find a cowboy hat....
Cracked up when the figures laid down and the red filtered through.
Great into as always 🔥🔪
all of those action figures look awesome
Ridley is one of my favorite designs and i had to grab the figure as soon as i seen it. Pretty great random figure. Lol
Ohhhh been waiting on this
you could probably work the cartoony aesthetic into doing customs for more stylized figures! like that chaos agent could work for a Tombstone to go with the spider-verse figures
The rippley figure is highkey the best here but they really should've made the mouth either a darker blue or black so it would stand out more, the rest are solid as well, it's interesting that they seem to give skins who don't have back blings in game (Lynx and Rippley) back blings from other random skins
I hope we get an Agent Jones figure soon, Hasbro will get literally all of my money

Since hasbro is never going to give us background characters in black series scale, fortnite characters will make good substitutes. But how they packed those accessories is troublesome…
its a good day if robo uploads
I used lynx with my custom batman characters, I plan on turning midas into a sith cyborg, chaos agent looks like he could be tooled into a scarecrow and rippley is just wacky fun for the shelf
Ripley looks so good. I wish we had those here in brazil.
I don't care about Fortnite at all, but you finally did get me to bite. I picked up the 3 Pack with Peely, Beef Boss and Tomatohead. I saw Lynx in the store the other day and didn't pick her up, but wish I had. Will have to get her and Ripley.
I don’t know anything about Fortnite but I’m a sucker for clear plastic 😍
Wanted to buy some of the Jazware figures, but never came to my country, only the 3 3/4. I am planning to buy Lynx because of the same idea, could be a Star Wars figure or an independent operative for GI Joe. Midas Rex could also work with the Classified Line. Another awsome overview.
I own 3 of this in-game haha. Nice to see them in figure form.
for figures being around 30 bucks this is an incredible deal vs the master grade series which just falls flat like the possibility and looks is just out of this world

Midas impressed the heck out of me so I bought the others. He's still my favorite though.
The body type of the Chaos Agent. I'm seeing Lupin the 3rd type characters. I'm seeing these and debating as I randomly picked up some jazwares ones just cause thought of alt ideas. The white skull/skeleton trooper will be a Shocker scientist. Lynx really does look like a Catwoman Beyond. Rippley surprised me Midas easy use for a Villain in many genres.
Damn it Robo I passed the ENTIRE jazzwares line because I don't care about Fortnite but was always tempted but I want these now!
That Midas Rex looks like it’ll make a good Serpentor custom or stand-in.
Saw these at walmart yesterday. Passed on them now starting to regret that decision.
I don’t know why but chaos agent just falling over with no music and just a loud thud was so funny to me
These are pretty cool, honestly surprised this isn’t a macfarlane line, looks right up his alley
I actually got into Jazwares Fortnite because I never see any Hasbro 6" stuff in my neck of the woods . I had planned on collecting GI Joe Classified, but didn't feel like paying double plus shipping on the secondary market. Really enjoyed them while it lasted. Too bad I'll probably never see any of these in the wild either.
I ended up buying Rippley and replacing the cutesy bubble headsculpt with a hollowed out skull that came with a Predator figure, just to make it a bit more sinister and unnerving, weird blue gel body with a human skull suspended inside it.
Yeah I actually do like minus Rex and all the other verses of Midas and I hope they make more action figures of Midas in the near Future
Dammit, Robo! I wasn't buying Fortnite until you came along, wavin' yer Beef Boss in everyone's faces. I told myself I was done when Jazwwares was done, no sense in jumping over to Hasbro for yet another series, they've got my wallet by the balls enough as it is... but you're selling me pretty hard on the Hasbro stuff now...
"The name of the game is fun", silly Robo, the name of the game is Fortnite. Also, the Midas Rex design very much gives me a Mortal Kombat cyborg vibe.
For Star Wars people like me I could see chaos agent as a palpatine like character,Midas as a Vader, lynx as maybe a Leia or padmae and rippley as like a wookie
I believe the Ironman Similarity’s on Midas Rex are intentional. He was introduced to the game around the same time as Iron Man, and was mortally wounded before hand. So I’m the game it is implied that ether Jules (who is Midas’ daughter) built him that based off of Iron Man, or Iron Man himself built it.
I’ve been holding off on getting fortnite figures from other companies and I may finally break and get these because Hasbro is my favorite toy company and they made my favorite character (Ripley)
I need that Midas.
I'm honestly worried about how they package the accessories now Makes it so much easy for them to just get stolen out of the package. I hope they fix that problem down the line by tying them in the card board with some twist or something But the figures are so goooddd, can't wait to get lynx and midas!
Chaos agent looks like kroenen kinda also that body might work for a silco from arcane with a few changes.
Just thinking the What If T'Challa head might stylistically match this style suit body.
Wondering if you have put the Herald Of Galactus Thor with them since that version of Thor appears in Fortnite.
I can't wait for lexa, kondor and renegade shadow incoming
Lynx has a few variations in the game. She changes color and has a few other tints...rainbow and more
Not gunna lie, I love these figs, don't know jack about fotnite, but damn these move good
Sheesh it's been a while since I stopped by to your channel, I hadn't realised, but I'm always here for your Fortnite reviews. Did you pick up any more Jazwares figures? I bought Scuba Jonesy recently, haven't opened him yet but he looks amazing! I think you'd also love the Atlantean Fishstick and Cyclo figures!
Definitely gonna get a Lynx and turn into a Loathcat themed bounty hunter, Rippley will be a Living Bacta bartender/bouncer for my Cantina and Midas will be a random patron/smuggler
Chaos Agent on my shelf is a place holder for Dr.Killemoff next to Super 7's Toxie.
Midas and ripply will go great in my fort… star wars collection
have you gotten your hands on the gi joe classified "barbeque" figure yet? my target has a bunch of them so I'd recommend checking yours.
Lynx as a 'Batman Beyond' Catwoman is certainly tempting
One thing that worries me but is also completely awesome is you can hop right on any website and buy these, nothing sold out, not even the Amazon exclusive jewels. I don't know if this is a good thing or bad thing.
Hope they release also the John Wick fortnite version.
I bought like 5 lynxes 4 for a black widow/black panther death squad and 1 MIB
Rippley definitely gonna be a great base for a The Batman (animated series) Mr. Freeze🖤
I've seen these at one Walmart. The "limited view" packaging made me pass on them. Chaos Agent looks like the adult version of Doctor Who gasmask kid. "Are you my mummy?" Midas - Iron Man gets (another) Image makeover?? C-3PO joins WildCATS? and that "ass/crotch flap" is called a #TABARD #RIPGingerBear Lynx - Selina meets Ravage? Catwoman Beyond? I think the backpack just sold me on her! LOL Rippley - PLEASE tell me there's a pink variant for X-Men's Glob Hermann!! LOL "E"laborate Buckle LOL That head is another win. Oh, I saw the Shark last week, too. Already spent WAY too much, tho. LOL😢
i was just thinking and with the new fantastic four wave, we could of really used a mr fantastic build a figure with all kinds of parts with stretched out body and legs. just thought id throw that out there.
Midas Rex 🔥
Lynx may be the first Fortnite fig I'd buy, a few, to have a set of kliier ninja robot cat girls
Exactly how compatible are the two Fortnite lines, Robo? Could you swap back bling and firearms?
Happy December 1st everyone!
Beef Boss acting like Red Hood with gang bosses
Ripely is just made of juice anyway, so he kinda falls into the food item characters. He’s just less obvious! But still a fun figure that’s easily one of my favorites.

@@TheFwoosh I was worried about the takeover from jazzwares but aside from the lack of accessories I'm fully on board
My first thought for Midas Rex was some version of Serpentor.🤷🏻♂️
I appreciate less plastic for the packaging, good for the environment, but I saw these in person a few weeks ago and nearly completely missed them on the shelf, I didn't even realize they were figures at first. I think they should've maybe found a way to incorporate an image of the actual figure on the front of the box, something like how LEGO does their sets where it's all cardboard with an image of the product on the front. Especially this early in the line they'll want them to stand out on the shelf, and sure the packaging is colorful, but seeing only part of the figure through a tiny window with little light getting in is a bit unimpressive looking to me. I know people want to look at the figure for paint quality before opening it, but if they're moving towards more cardboard anyway I think they'd be better going all the way with it. Besides with how much we order online these days I think looking at a figure before getting it is something we care a bit less about these days. I say all this about I line that I'm not even collecting, but if I were to collect it that's something I'd like to see them change.
Tony made the suit for his body
Chaos Agent kinda looks like he could be a cool villain for Batman.
Pretty good not too bad
Robo, if you like cool character designs for the sake of cool character designs, you should look into League of Legends new 6-inch figures of Zed (Cool fantasy Knight) and more likely up your Alley, Thresh (Cool Undead/Grim Reaper dude)
Not a fan of the new package direction. I understand the decision, but I have picked up a few Transformers already that were missing accessories and have heard people have had the same issue with the Fortnite figures. They need to have a window that shows you're getting a complete figure
Lynx hand a big because that is how “cat” characters are design specially in anime. The idea is to highlight the “paw” looking hands
