The figure is made to look like the animated series and they did a good job of giving it a more cartoon look. Mezco Bishop is like 2-3 times the price of a Legend, not a good comparison.

Again, it's subjective. And we'll see the animation soon but personally, just not digging it. OG bishop is way better. And I was just showcasing why I preferred Mezco bishop. Not necessarily a direct comparison

I disagree. People compare different figure brands all the time despite its price and swear that ML look way better which is a flat out lie. ML has been dropping the ball with their QC for quite some time, their packaging, increase in price that being said there are a few figs that still hold up and look great for example the Doc Oct from the VHS box looks amazing

@@angelespinoza3925 Legends has some advantages. Legends scale well and there are some figures that I think are better in legends. Those comparisons are with the expectation of imports being a higher quality.

I like the figure myself which was a surprise as I had no interest in the X-Men 97 figures when they were first announced, but I do think a lot of your criticisms about the figure and the line in general are valid. We do seem to be at a fork in the road where we’re going to have to choose between quality and quantity, because it’s becoming obvious that we”re not going to get both in today’s economy. I think that may be why some collectors, including myself, are having a tough time letting go. Quality brings you long term satisfaction, but quantity brings you immediate gratification, and many of us, whether we want to admit it or not, are all about the immediate gratification.

Love your attitude and review. This is why I collected the OG 90s Uncanny X-men figures. But damn, that Mezco Bishop is DOOOOPE. Definitely subscribing.

I got this line purely for nostalgia purposes. I typically only collect 1/6 these days but this line reminded me of my childhood and my love for the X-Men animated series and Toy Biz action figures I had. Have these sitting on my desk currently and loving them.

I'd be right there with you had it not been for the slight new reinforcements on the figures appearance by hasbro/ Disney. I really wanted to like this line and hoped it would salvage hope back in hasbro. But no, unfortunately didn't happen. I'm still holding onto my 93 toybiz classic line.

Runway model Bishop 😂. Bro comparing the Mezco to Hasblo is like comparing a solid gold bar to a turd 🤣. I definitely gave up on Hasblo as well. Got tired of their ridiculous prices and horrible QC. Great video bro 👍🏻.

Man I Miss the 90s, every release from marvel/disney/Star Wars has to be PC clean or inclusive or else… bishop is the quintessential 90s character now it seems he wants join a Korean boy band, and mezco bishop is only $60 shipped on Amazon I agree he is the best bishop we have so far

Thank you! I love all bishops... but it's all subjective. I mean, some people still like the toybiz 2000s bishop but not me. I actually still enjoy the 90s toybiz bishop, the first one

Nice review Fury, and I owe you some thanks here. I was originally going to mention That the only other figure of the wave I have, other than Bishop, is the Storm, which I'm not crazy about but I'm a Storm completist so whaddayagonnado, and while I agree with almost all of your comments about Hasbro I love this Bishop, despite the missing mullet because I don't have a Bishop and I couldn't afford the Mezco Bishop... or so I thought. Damn if looking for what the aftermarket price on the Mezco would be, I saw Amazon had this guy for sixty dollars. Still expensive, but combine 20 dollars in rewards, I got him forr40 bucks. That's value on any planet. Couldn't pass that up. And I thank you for making me look. Seriously.

Is this really a fair comparison? Comparing a retail version of a cartoon character to a high end collectable is like comparing apples and oranges. A figure under $30 is going to be different than one over $80. You get what you pay for.

@TheJfury1030

Its not a comparison. I was only stating why I preferred the mezco bishop. There's a few pros about the ML that is better or more accurate than mezco. But there's a few other amenities that make mezco cooler.

I also think your dissatisfaction with the 97 Bishop is with the source aesthetic and design. This is based on the upcoming cartoon while the Mezco Bishop is based Jeanty grim post apocalyptic art in The Last X-Man. Both represent the styles pretty well but you (and I) prefer the Mezco design. We can’t really blame Hasbro on this one.

Lets be honest Hasbro is not above putting out bad figures. When they do things right like the Elektra Dare Devil figure they get their props. However when they put out crap like those Eternals figures they need to be told the truth. Like hey those figures suck don't make figures like that again. You can tell after a few successful HasLab project, Hasbro started getting full of themselves. Which is no one wanted to buy the dumb expensive Ghost Rider car. Giant Man was almost not a project without outside backers. I actually have that Mezco Bishop as well and I prefer it over the XMen 97 Bishop. I have the MAFEX Magneto as well and I wouldn't choose the XMen 97 Magneto over the MAFEX Magneto. Great video man and just know you can't change the minds of these die hard Hasbro fans that buy any and everything Hasbro promotes. Hasbro could sell them poop on a plate and they would still pay top dollar to Hasbro.

Marvel legends makes great toys for their price, any comparison to much more expensive lines is irrelevant. For what they are, they are great. People just complain about everything. And the recent haslab did work bro. Got almost 14k backers

It wasn't a comparison but more of a preference, just for me. As I stated, I don't have the original bishop to put side to side but just briefly explained why I still prefer the og bishop. And although this is a good bishop update, it's not the bishop I would have preferred. That's all. As far as the haslab... I'm sure the marvel haslab team was sweating. But good for them, because the team better get some better projects goin for future haslabs with surety of backing

Wrong giant man was funded. An the bishop is the cartoon style sooo . An if you have the toy iz one it's a different look . But go mezco!!! Nice fig how much is that mezco Bishop?

In this case Mezco wins. But Legends makes more comic accurate, better proportioned, better scaled, better articulated comic figures on most occasions. The only company doing it better is Mafex.
