Robo always self aware. Much appreciated

I got Madelyne a few days ago and I love her! The face sculpt is so good and they put some work into the rest of the figure. Though the ankles annoy me. A lot. The angle that the peg goes in makes them borderline unusable. Still, I'm gonna have her flying and throwing green energy, so whatever, I'm just glad the _look_ is so good!

Yeah, that's the big factor, the ankles and feet. Prod swapped out some flat shoes and now the cape pushes against the floor and topples her. Needs a cloth cape!

Ooh just what I needed. Just got back from work, caught up on X-Men '97 and now currently in the process of unboxing the Logan/Sabretooth set, a Robo X-Men review is the cherry on top.

I dug the crash test dummies reference well played

Nightcrawler was a must ordered on-line done

Great vid Robo! I just picked up this Nightcrawler & noticed the upper arms, upper legs and lower torso work for a teen Cannonball. So now I gotta grab another lol

17:35 - After this week's episode, we know this is ALMOST how she looks in the new animated series. They did do the exposed upper legs, which this figure skipped because it's still a kids' toy.

Haha great intro man, your skits keep getting better and better keep it up. Also I can’t unsee the Conan now from my cyclops o_o

When you said you weren't going to get M costume Magneto, I thought to myself, "we shall see, Robo. We shall see" 😏. The Jean was the biggest surprise to me in this wave. Everything I had thought when I initially saw them was confirmed when I had them in hand, but she turned out really nice. Especially compared to some of her other gangly, large-headed releases. The star of the wave for me (and the show now tbh) is Maddie. It's not the comic, but she is 😚👌

I love that intro!

I love this whole wave! Nightcrawler's head has so much more personality, so much better than the old imo. Great video Robo!

Loving the show and the figures, picked both waves up so far. Pure nostalgic bliss.

The Magneto looks way better than I expected.

I had to get the Goblin Queen to make a custom GI Joe Baroness. It's a great looking figure and the face sculpt is awesome.

That dark gray on Goblin Queen should have been flesh tone at the very least. That would have been accurate to the animation

Yeah I swear man it like how do you miss that? They do get sample figures back from the factory before they go into production. Were the thigh high boot too Danger zone for them?

I already have all of these figures but you can bet your booty I'll be watching this in full. 😎 Not missing a second of that sweet sweet Robotime.

I told myself I don’t need these figures, since my ML collection is more focused on MCU/Movie figures. However, after watching the show, I’m kinda itching for them.

I have a confession I actually really like the jim lee jean costume but its definitely behind the two phoenix costumes she had

Can't believe how well they've done with X-Men '97. I was fully expecting it to be "alright." So, I didn't really hunt for these other than Cyclops. But after watching it and loving it? I may need that Magneto and Jean haha.

Did you get wolverine from the first wave

Not surprised you picked up those figs you said you'd pass on because I said the same. I already had them in prior iterations and the Magneto was not my style. But then it was hard to deny some of the beautiful design aesthetics, so I ended up getting Jean, Cyclops (for that optic blast head sculpt) and Magneto I'll try and get on clearance.

Love the close up on jean grey's chest

the intro genuinely made me laugh out loud

That cyclops does weirdly look like Conan O'Brien

Sculpted rather than painted is just such a significant improvement on any figure. Just like painted rivets, buttons etc.

got a nightcrawler for my 3yr olds b'day. he was all over my 80s bendy NC. we both like the new one better lol

That Jean costume is my preferred look for her. I guess I watched the old cartoon more than I read the comics. And those headsculpts are magnificent

Nightcrawler should come with "wall crawling" hands. I missed the first Nightcrawler so I am definitely going to pick this one up.

Having finally gotten into X-Men through the show is worrying, becuase I'm ordering a ton of Marvel Legends from the show.

I'm with you on Magneto. I don't need him desperately and I didn't pre order him like I did Maddy and Kurt and I should wait but if I see him in the wild he's absolutely going in my cart.

I'm so glad they mastered the animated style with X-men 97, because if they ever do X-Men Evolution, it's going to be amazing.

That's a great looking Goblin queen custom 17:43

I am sad that Jean went out of stock on Amazon, But ti me, I still will try to get her along with Cyclops because I need them which both my Love Triangle 3 pack Jean Grey and Cyclops figures broke on me and maybe I might try to get Nightcrawler along with Magneto too, Also, Goblin Queen is a hot baddie to hot too handle and very great review Robo.

No footage of opening up figures and laying out accessories? It was so cathartic for in-box collectors.

The costume isn’t bad looking to me, it’s giving a villain trying the hero routine type of look. I dig it 🤷🏾‍♀️🔥

Honestly man, I was gonna pass on this Magneto, then I saw the series and how could I not. 😂😂😂

I modded my Jean and the forward crunch is a lot better. You don't need to cut much, but it's definitely worth it.

Been loving the X-Men 97 figures in general, but Magneto was the only one from this wave I held off on. Seeing your review I am glad. If you look at it from just neck up, the cape wraparound looks kind of scarf like, then the white hair….I am kind of getting Bea Arthur from the Golden Girls vibes when looking from a distance! 😂

I really hope that wave three has both Jubilee & Beast in it. They're all I need now. & I was sure they'd finish out the core team in wave two. But knowing my luck they'll put one in wave three & one in wave four.

As much as I had been hoping for years they'd release Magneto in this costume...his second hero costume (with the big black collar and white gloves, boots and belt) was better and I can definitely see that now.

You can use the extra Magneto head on the Gambit 3-pack with Banshee and Psylocke to make Joseph.

Lol In the 1st wave I got everyone except Gambit and I said I was only going to buy Bishop , Magneto and Rogue. So far in this wave I only wanted Magneto, Jean and Cyclops. Goblin Queen needed a lil more sluttin up to win my money. I have the purple Magneto posed with the X-men from the 80's Outback/inferno era. Punk Storm, Havok, Polaris, Outback Rogue, Dazzler , Longshot , Colossus, Brown suit Wolverine and Iceman. He fits right in if anyone doesn't know where to use him but wants the figure.

Bested out the new Nightcrawlrr just the other day! Love it but I can't seem to get him in as good a crouch pose as the one from the... Wendigo or Caliban wave. But maybe I'm doing it wrong and Robo will teach me the ways.

I really hope Hasbro doesn't start making the female figures the way Jean is on this one. Thanks for sharing Robo!

I’ve been having an issue with the 97 figures where I buy one to keep as the animated version and for some o get a second to swap older figures parts on to make comic versions, really need a vhs cyclops head though, can’t find one anywhere and I don’t want to buy a whole figure

Magneto is surprisingly on the su fire body if I’m not mistaken

What video camera and lights you use for your videos?

Robo two things about goblin queen in X men 97, She never uses magic, she never goes to limbo and leads an army of demons. She does however make a psychic illusion that looks like Hell and the x men are attacked by psychic illusions that look like demons. Also the green effects are there because her telepathic and telekinetic powers are visialized as green flames.

Damn… it’s been a while since I’ve seen an X-Men wave without Wolverine lol

I am getting this wave because I need a Kurt Wagner.

For Jean, do you think a color swap to match her green pheonix look could work?

The first magneto from 97 wave one. looks better and has better articulations then the second new one but i like them both .i disagree wave one magneto has okey proportions just a little short. These Magneto's are great improvement .

Action figures really do set false expectations about how easy it is to pull a woman's head off.

Where did you get your Madelyn Pryor Buck for you custom? Very nice!

At 20seconds…”You need that Magneto!!!!!!!” ……oh, and there it is in your hand🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I don't own any of the Jean Greys, but I'm curious to see how the hair from the 3 pack one would look in the 97 head.

wish they would have painted the top of the boots flesh color to match the cartoon!

How about using the legs and arms of the 97 jean on the comic body

Nightcrawler bother me a bit, only because when we got a new one I expected a retooled amazing fantasy body. Luckily I had already had a custom going with that body and I just took the new boots and gloves and redid the poofy hair.

The Goblin Queen's costume doesn't look exactly like the cartoon design.

Can the new mangeto heads work on wave 1 ?

Any ideas if a Count Nefaria is rolling out???

After Watching the show it seems like magneto should be even taller but I un-ironically like that Figure

Customize Jean into her X-Men Red costume.

I am liking this, but I will say that I really hope they give us a new Jubilee. Old one's good, but the skintone really shows its age. Even new colors would help a lot. Also, give us belly shirt Gambit somehow, Hasbro. Please.

Mostly head comments from me. Magneto - tell me that head is NOT Christopher Lambert as Raiden in Mortal Kombat! I can't unsee it! Kurt - too much mousse. Kurt never had that much length or wave even under Alan Davis Jean - I expect to see more Imperial Guard customs using her ponytail head. (Dreamer? Empath? Whoever the pale skinned, pink clad alien is.) Maddie - her pinkish skin tone bothers me more than it should. Had they gone pale, it would be fine. I grabbed an extra to custom a Selene, as that's similar to her look, too. also, the second baby is gonna be Baby Rachel once I recolor her hair. ALSO, try swapping the Dark Phoenix head onto Maddie. I finally got one right after these hit thru Target online sale. Aside from the skin tone, she looks EVILER!

The Night Crawler is the best. Few gripes with the rest: worst Magneto outfit, looks like he should be on the cover of "Breakfast at Tiffany's" or "Pretty Woman" with those gloves. The size difference between Jean Grey and Goblin Queen are ridiculous considering one is a clone of the other.

I was actually about to comment before you even said something... But damn it definitely looks like Conan O'Brien LOL

Am I the only one who sees Nickelodeon shredder potential in the magneto?

Does anybody know when or IF we're going to be getting the Nightcrawler as Spider-Man ?

Magneto looks like Craig Furguson.

What’s the point of the cut on their between legs and crouch I don’t get it

I'd love to see the casting cave pietro head on magneto though... hm

The "M" stands for HOPE...lol

Odd Hasbro changed the leg color of Goblin Queen, looks to be last minute as well because she's sculpted to reflect the cartoon series where she's wearing those thigh high boots and bare upper legs. Here they filled it in with that different black color. Too Risque?
