Nice! Good to see you back. The fuzzy fuzzy picture effect was giving me that bad , trying to watch a channel (back in the day) that doesn’t come in on the television. Aka. Rabbit ear antenna

For me, my number one was Jada Toys Ryu, but I also buy way fewer figures than you do, so I am totally happy with your rankings. You've definitely piqued my interest on that Black Widow.

The construction on AWOK is next level puts all mass market stuff to shame in durability, while having great articulation and sculpt

That cloak on Red Sonja is great, I now need one. Keep up the great work.

Thanks for continuing doing these videos. Out of all the top ten figures videos, I look forward to yours the most. Looking forward to the mid 2024 top ten.

As we got closer to around #4 i kept saying "jada better stay, jada better stay" LOL DOPE work J 🔥👏

Just-J has good taste in action figures. I respect all of these choices.

What I like about your list is the sheer variety. I tried doing that with my own list, but yours is even more varied than mine. Great list.

Thnx, man, I love a good mix! My only disappointment in my own list was having 2 figures from the same brand, but seeing the licenses are so different, I let it slide this year. 🙌

A beautiful list of figures in a golden age of collecting! Fantastic selections, here’s to more..in 2024…! 🙌❤️

I love the way you do these lists! It's so fun seeing what changes (or doesn't) and hearing your thought process behind it all. And man, I gotta open that NECA Feral Predator lol. It's sitting in my open pile/queue right now and I clearly need to reprioritize haha. But as ever, list is solid as all hell!

geat list! great video; I really enjoyed watching especially cuz it seems like you enjoyed making it!🤙👏 Happy New Year! 🥂I'm looking forward to more 😃

Great list, covering a wider variety of lines than most other channels. Your style rocks Mr. J! 🎸

Always love the diversity of the top 10!!

I have Veteran William and he has that certain quality you just can't describe. He's going to be one of those figures where you say... "I remember when he came out and I was lucky to get one. " Man just try and get one now without selling your organs. He's a star figure of his own but you can army build him and still make him stand out.

The most important top 10 list

Fun list! Love each spot defending their spot.

Good list dude. I think you might have sold me on that Cosmic Legions figure. I like your content too , the way you present theses is cool.

Awesome list and review bro! Love how you switched it up….

Mafex Nightwing is sooooooo good.

While other channels are dishing the hate and ridiculing others for their different opinions, you are bringing the positivity and love to the community and the hobby. Thank you ❤

Hyde ended up being my top figure of the year for my personal top 10! The crypt line has so much potential to create a universe of monsters and it looks like based on Facebook post alone, loosecollector has some wild monsters planed!

I'm thinking that for 2024 maybe I'll do something like a round of "awards" instead

Always enjoy your top 10 vids J🔥 content as usual. Mafex is most definitely getting the MJ and Lebron MVP treatment now 😂 When greatest is expected it’s much harder to get the recognition/appreciation sometimes. Nightwing is my figure of the year but I agree he’s just more of the same. Hopefully Medicom Mafex starts to innovate just a bit more in 2024.

Great choices. Had two AWOKs on mine, a few Four Horsemens, and one from both Furay Planet and Jada Street Fighter too. But you’re collecting different stuff and I LOVE that. Appreciate hearing folks’ thoughts. For example, I didn’t grab that Kilmer Bats, but he does look really good. And I don’t do Legends, but if I did, that Widow and Spiral would be on my list.

Oh man that Widow was GOLD!!!! If Hasbro could do more of that, even at a “premium” price, jeez they’d be tops. And veteran William was my number one as well.

Hahah, that's a DEVIL of a question, man. 😅

In '24, I'm waiting patiently for LooseCollector to blow my doors off with that werewolf. I don't think he'll challenge my love for Veteran William, there's just too much power in that figure to build your ideal werewolf, BUT for a huge, powerful, posable werewolf god, LC gonna fill that void in my life. But for year end, yeah, i don't think Spero can be touched. Jada was a close second, especially with their broad range of subjects, but the quality of Spero, with an original IP... yeah, I'm in all day. But for me, the small companies were just mercing the big three this year. Mastro Union, Memory Toys, Mithril Action, Fury Toys, D24 Studios, just KILLED this year. The variety of IPs, the paint, the articulation, the accessories, this was an absolute banner year once you got past the corporate chicanery and treated the dishes they don't want you to savor. Hasbro, Mattel, NECA, even McF, are fast food... I'm ready to dine gourmet.

How was I late to the party on that Veteran Williams. I love werewolves and didnt really hear of him until I started seeing him on these top 2023 lists. Now hes damn near impossible to find and Im not paying secondary market prices. Im hoping he gets a re release at some point even if its under a different color scheme.

Good picks. Bone Brawlers are in my top 10 too. They look so creepy and move so well. I can’t help but see them in stop motion when I see them. Creepy good. Jada is bringing hits after hits in Street Fighter. Love AWoK. The most solid figures that move so smooth. Great stuff…. Loose Collector Red Sonja teases me every time I see that beautiful figure. I didn’t pull trigger on it. I’m thinking about hunting it down or wait till Boss Fight. I like that Wal-Tor but I’m holding out for Oper-a-tiv 84 or something like that. That crazy Man-E-Faces color scheme looks so good. It’s the same figure mostly. The skeleton head is good on that Wal-Tor. I was eyeing it. Decided to spend money on Retail exclusive Headless Horseman instead. Black Widow is great. Ock and Green Goblin movie figures are amazing too. So much to enjoy!

Couldn’t agree more about Master Weng and Veteran Williams regarding versatility. But my bias for tigers places Weng above Willaims. Crocker and BBTS Crocker also versatile and rad!

I originally wanted to get Veteran William when he came out, but his lack of double jointed elbows or knees made me hesitate. While I still think it’s an awesome figure from the reviews, I’m more looking forward to Loose Collector’s Great Wolves figures and, when they come out, I’ll be getting one of them for my Werewolf fix.

@@JHernandez they needed to message the backers. The people who paid them. Social media is not the way to distribute info to the proper people. They failed miserably and they know it. Robo and Veebs left for a reason. Looking at it now I have zero faith in their future endeavors. Failure to communicate properly damages the brand. I shouldn’t have to dig and search for information of what I’ve already paid for. Now it all seems like a cash grab from desperate people. This is not a way to build a company. They are begging for money before they have anything. They are begging for ninja scroll, naked ninja money… 🤷‍♂️ that’s ok for the 1st endeavor not the 5th. 😂 not even the 2nd imo.

I honestly gotta disagree on Black Widow. Though I can totally see your reasoning as to the male vs. female figure debate, and which ones are harder to get right, Widow was still completely outclassed by Jada's Chun-Li. Her torso articulation is head and shoulders above Widow's, her neck (while not as good as Ryu/Fei Long's) is still so much more expressive than the outdated setup that Hasbro uses, and she can do the splits without issue. Widow, to me, was a big disappointment. You had all these points of articulation, and yet so much of it barely worked. If it weren’t for the amazing headsculpts and pretty damn good spread of accessories, I might've sold her.

@JHernandez

6 ай бұрын

You must have gotten a faulty Widow, then, take a look at my pics on Insta and you'll see what it's capable of when used correctly ... and the moment Chun-Li can do a Spidey squat, something Widow CAN do, she'll take that 2 spot ... add some butterflies, and we're set, but, as it stands, Widow is the winner of the 2.

@brycebitetti1402

6 ай бұрын

@JHernandez I can assure you, man, my Widow isn't faulty. It's just my opinion that the engineering is incredibly lackluster. Her reverse ab crunch is okay, but her diaphragm joint has a fairly limited range even compared to some other previous lady Legend bodies. This severely limits her crunch, meaning that she overall gets just an "okay" range there. Better than other female Legends, but worse than a lot of their male characters. Compare this to Chun-Li, which utilizes the much superior double ball peg setup which allows for superior crunch and tilt. This range issue is also the case for Widow's hips, which continue the ML tradition of not knowing how to engineer effective hip joints, causing a limited split. Chun-Li, on the other hand, hits a perfect split no issue. Then we come to the butterfly joints. These were so disappointing for me. They're practically useless. You get the tiniest bit of extra range, the kind that could probably be achieved with a few minor concessions to the torso to get the arms to reach around naturally. While it's true that Chun-Li doesn't have them, they're so useless on Widow that I hardly even consider them a factor. I'm holding both of them in my hands as I type this out, and the Jada figure just has the superior engineering, considered and purposeful where Hasbro just thinks more joints means more articulation. Again, these are just my thoughts. Enjoy your figure to the fullest, man. Just trying to express why I disagree.

@JHernandez

6 ай бұрын

I mean, just cause a figure can split, doesn't mean it's necessarily bulletproof. Plenty of Legends Spideys can't split properly, and they're off the chain. Chun-Li is great, engineering is awesome, I agree ... but her build severely limits what it is she can actually do, even with a rubber pelvis piece. I have both, pose both regularly, and like both. Widow, in the end, is just more versatile all around, which makes her a better figure, IMO.
