Marvel Legends COLOSSUS X-Men Warlock BAF Wave Toy Action Figure Review

This is the card art let's take a look
it's the regular Marvel Legend style Colossus on the side back of the card
going open this up and continue the review this is Marvel Legends review
on Colossus and it's part of the Warlock Build A Figure wave and it comes with
the head piece of Warlock this would be a separate review and like a saw blade
so that's a separate figure and Colossus himself comes with an alternate bearded
head which flip out little bit later in the review and on to the Colossus figure
this is Colossus in his more modern X-men costume that he wears in the comic
books as I'm making this video it's not the classic look what really stands out
on this figure is the size it's bigger than a normal Marvel Legend as it should
be because it fits the character well you could see the sculpting detail the
arms here and the hands I like this open type pose for like a grip this is
painted on the X symbol you would think at first that this looks like his
metal chest armor but it's just a black area that I don't know why purpose wise
it doesn't seem to make any sense design wise the head sculpt is really
detailed classic Colossus look from the comic books serious type of stern look
to him
you would think in a way like maybe he should have a belt or something from to design
like something is missing but nobelt this is kind of like an armored
type look you see the sculpting this is sculpted it's not just painted on so
they spent quite a bit of money here tooling up new parts Hasbro same here
sculpt detailing the back is very plain not too much going on here I'm going to
switch out the head so let's take a look in a second normal Colossus there we
go bearded look and the hair is a little
different let's take a look at this one
it's like a little curl here
got a mustache I actually like the bearded look for this costume better for
this particular look what he's wearing looks more imitating it looks actually
looks just better I think for this figure but you got to wonder from a
technical viewpoint how the heck does his hair transform into like a metal
armor and he does it instantly his whole body kind of makes no sense from that
perspective it is about 7 and a half inches tall check out the articulation
the heads on a ball joint good down range up to the sides ball
jointed shoulder area up or down in or out got a bicep articulation has one
point at the elbows and the wrists you can spin and not really any in or out
here just a little bit the gauntlet section does get in the way a bit I like
the open hand grip here and this is a closed fist upper torso good range
and swivel waist ball jointed at the hip area
up down swivel thighs double knee articulation and right under here under
the boot section has a calf swivel and the ankles up down to the sides
and going to give my final thoughts about this Colossus action figure in a moment
overall Colossus in his more modern costume
I think this action figure is sort of a mixed bag it depends on if you really
like the costume it's a look that I think with fans overall it's not
something that they consider the ideal Colossus instead of his classic costume
this is kind of weird in that Colossus his main feature is that he could turn
his skin into metal and yet most of his body is covered up in clothing and only
the arms and the head are exposed which kind of defeats the purpose of having a
mutant power that looks metallic and metal you know it's like if he has a
special power why the heck is he covered up all the time and the chest plate you
think that's exposed but it's just like a colored black arrow that's it looks
weird you know the costume it's definitely not
my favorite Colossus figure but in its own right
if you get over that fact I think Hasbro did a good job in terms of the
production of it the two different head sculpts the position of the hands the
size where it's like seven inches and bigger than the other X-men I think they
did all that right and it is as I'm making this video the current costume in
the comic books anyway so that's my final interpretation of this Colossus
mixed bag of both good and bad I would say and you do need it you want to Build
the Warlock build a figure because it has the main head piece and so that's the
review thanks for watching and talk to you later
bye
