Super 7 just released Transformers Bludgeon. The helmet can't fit on the head fully, the cannon can't stay on the arm, the articulation is poor, it took about 2 years after preorder, no refunds or cancellation for pre-order if you get it directly from them (but you do get refund or cancellations via other websites if you order the same item from them) and other issues. Other TFs they've tried have also had bad design (such as Targetmaster accessories not actually working properly), etc. They also just showed the 3D render for Bludgeon too. Apparently, they didn't even figure designing or getting production ready until they get their orders, which is why it takes so long to get them and why the QC issues are bad. They are basically a crowd-funded company posing as a legit retail company.

One of the biggest issues with S7 is that they often shy away from paint apps and instead try to cast everything in the "more or less" correct colors from the get go. In consequence, the figures all look a bit 'meh', unfortunately. When they do go full in on the paint (which they do for some figures), the products can look quite amazing tho. Muckman from TMNT would be an example of that. The excess of accessories is just another thing that gets a lot of people upset (me too); they seem to use it as an excuse to hike the prices, but most of the stuff is utterly useless.

They weren't even great then tbh. Their first wave of Ultimate MOTUC figures on the vintage style cardbacks were great (although that's likely because those were made in the Mattel factories), but we saw everything from fragile parts, low quality plastic, poorly engineered articulation, and poor color matching. Luckily the movie figures were really high quality, but most of their stuff (especially from the Filmation Club Grayskull line) was a mess.

@wetalkeverything7891

I would argue they weren't great then. They only did a few waves and there were issues there too. Mattel did the majority of MOTUC, Super 7 were the tail end. They're not the best in terms of QC compared to pricepoint. But for some of these properties, it's the only option (so glad to have practically finished Thundercats at last). I will say, in terms of complaining about lack of extra torso in the review to make two figures - this is pretty standard with a lot of lines. They're not in the business of giving you two figures, lol.

I am a big fan of the TMNT super7 ultimates but I understand a lot of your gripes as you probably have seen with a lot of reviewers. I currently own the entire TMNT line and have to say the most recent wave 8 has had a major improvement with their loose joints. I also think it’s certain figures too. Most of mine have fairly decent stuff joints although my Krang’s robot legs are a quite loose. But I am also not into doing lots of poses, just like to display my figures out of box and might do 1-3 poses every now and then. I think once their next wave of figures comes out will be the tall tale if their QC has finally improved or if like wave 8 was just a miracle wave. As some in your comments has said, think they have acquired too many licenses and have let several products quality drop.

And both were actually quite nice. Lion-O’s joints are very sturdy on mine and apart from the eyes looking a bit weird he’s great and I still have him. Donatello I did resell. Not that he was bad, far from it actually, but because after the vintage line, the Revoltechs, and Neca lines I honestly wasn’t interested in starting yet another TMNT collection, especially for that price per figure. They’re also a bit too big for me. Only complaint I had about Donnie was that the joint connecting the hip to the torso was a bit loose. But neither figures had any problems posing or anything which might also just have to do with body proportions or something compared to this one?

Figures on their website look meticulously painted and posed, but is far from what you actually get. The best thing about their figures is the box, which is sort of emblematic of their company as a whole. It has the appearance of quality, but not so much up close.

I have totally given up... Super7 is constantly doing that to me!

The general consensus, regardless of reviewer (bought-out shills aside, obviously) or which Super7 line it is, is that they're not worth the money. I happen to love some of their Thundercats stuff, but even I will say they're just not worth the price.

New to the channel and enjoying what ive watched so far!, I only have one Super 7 figure which is Panthro from Thundercats line. My experience with him is luckily the exact opposite as you had with Robin Hood. The only complaint I had was that the chain for the nunchucks was too long but the figure itself is solid, tight but not too tight joints, great paint, etc... I have heard that S7 can be hit or miss. I'd also imagine that the licensing for Disney is way more than Thundercats so maybe they used cheaper manufacturers to maintain margins.......?

Thanks so much! New channel altogether, so thank you for watching! Fair point about the licensing. Sad they didn’t push for higher quality to keep Disney happy, though I imagine they don’t care too much. Glad your Panthro is good!

It really IS quite disappointing seeing the quality is more meh than yeh. Nevertheless I ordered it just because I'm glad they at least release something Disney Robin Hood related. My only fear is that they might discontinue with the line before even the main cast get a chance of a release. Instead they teasered the Crocodile Captain as potential third figure of the line where I wonder who even cares for this character that only has like 30 seconds screen time in the movie. :[

Excellent video. This was recommended to Me on my main feed, thankfully. After the video, I had to Subscribe. Incredible breakdown of the figure. I'm fairly new to Super7, but I own Muckman and Mutagen Man from their TMNT Ultimates line. They are Amazing, works of art to Me. Thinking about going all in on that line, but I've heard some stuff that makes me wonder. 😳

Very kind of you, thank you! Based on the comments it seems the most recent wave of TMNT has poor quality control compared to the older items. If you can get stuff discounted it’s likely worth it. But all their newest stuff seems off

I always check reviews before I even consider a figure which isn't often since I find the wildly overpriced compared to other toylines both domestic and imported. The only time I ever came close to buying was their Iconic Pose movie Conan but when I saw video reviews, the figure was super glossy instead of matte and the face looked nothing like Arnold. Good review!

My first Super 7 figure was the glow in the dark Toxi. The sculpt looks neat but those joints are just bad, was hoping it wouldnt be the same for the Turtles when they released. Unfortunately, it's the same joints. I'm sticking to some turtle figures, but their articulation is just bad, they feel dated imo.

That’s how it feels. It’s so disappointing to see what they are doing with such a great line of characters.

I think something happened at Super 7's factory within the last year, because alot of the Ultimates from within that time frame have lots of problems. I ordered a TMNT Ultimates Ray Fillet in May of 2021. I received him in October of 2022- a year and 5 months later and Ray's hips are SUPER loose. A figure that was pre-ordered over 16 months later should not have ANY problems. I wanted to get this Robin Hood as I'm a fan of that movie too, but these issues are definitely giving me pause for $55 a whack.

@@NostalgiaUnboxed Yeah I think that has a LOT to do with it. There's also a LOT of time out between when you pre-order, and when the item is created, shipped and then mailed to you. Alot of the time Super7 is selling you 3-D CAD files from their computers and not photos of a tangible, physical object. During a video interview Pixel Dan did with Brian from Super7 back during the Pandemic, Brian had made a comment that always stuck with me. He said something to the effect of, it was nice not having conventions to go exhibit at all the time as they didn't have to actually bring physical prototypes to the show to set up. I think part of the problem with that thought process is, you might find flaws in the design with physical prototypes that you could miss while 3-D designing it. TMNT Ultimates Wave 5 all around the series has problems with loose joints, Jay from Geek Dad Life here on KZread did a video a few days ago about it and shows some videos from other collectors with Sewer Samurai Leo's hips and head bobbling around like a marionette. And for figures that were pre-ordered in May of 2021 and showed up at people's houses in October of 2022- there really isn't any good explanation why after nearly 15 months those figures didn't leave the factory perfect. If they can't do that in 15 months, what makes us think they can handle it in 12?

@@TheBoglin yeah, I saw his video too. (Geek dad). Sounds like Brian isn’t a collector and purely in it for the busy and profit, while also not being good at business. You HAVE to produce the item to test it. “User Experience” testing. It’s as old as time. The “prototypes” they have in their recent video for SpongeBob looks like they have made failed items already. If you watch it look for the moment he places Squidward on the table while in his hand. The knees have absolutely no support and that’s while he is still supporting it with his hand!

@@NostalgiaUnboxed Yeah I don't know exactly where Brain's head is with some of these. They strike me more as a "Art Toy Company" where they just make high-end stuff. Some of their ReAction stuff is pretty solid, but you're talking about typically 7 parts vs 30+ on the Ultimates figures. More parts and articulation doesn't always equal better products, as you said, you have to have it in hand to test it. I make my own resin Glyos compatible toys and I make sure my stuff is perfect before I sell it to people, and I always make sure my sculpts have feet that allow them to stand. That's because, like so many of us, I've had figures swan-dive off of shelves and that's something that irks the hell out of me. I'll have to check that SpongeBob video out for sure now. I got the TMNT Ultimates Scratch from Wave 6 and he didn't have any issues so I dunno if Super7 is on top of these issues and correcting them in future waves, or they are just all over the place and just get lucky from time to time.
