The Human Torch was probably my most anticipated of the new Marvel Legends Fantastic Four Retro wave, at least when it comes to the core team, and Hasbro doesn't disappoint!

    I like that this can also be used as the golden age Human torch so he can go with Namor and Cap
  • I'm surprised that Robo didn't try to lick Johnny because THIS GUY really looks like a Jolly Rancher lol
  • Hey Robo, my Age of Apocalypse Sunfire had the same annoying tuned in left foot. I popped it in hot water a few times and carefully twisted it the opposite way then ran it under cold water. It's much improved.

    I cannot wait for the play day when you bring this back. Cause I’m sure you’re gonna do some work to it or someone is gonna 3d print something for you. It’s gonna be awesome
  • @mikewilson3581
    I wish we could have the 1980's John Byrne era Fantastic Four available. The white and dark blue uniforms were great visually. Just a classic run. And while I'm at it, I'd love to see some World War ll heroes available. Perhaps Liberty Legion's Patriot, Red Raven, or a Whizzer and Miss America combo? I love the Golden Age Whizzer but I'm not holding my breath waiting.
  • @Cabooselover79
    Always love the playability ideas you put out there in your overviews. It's the imagination that I enjoy about collecting . Much appreciated Robo.
  • @xeno8484
    Love this figure we still need a normal Johnny Storm in the blue and black to go with the Walgreens wave. I know some use a Reed body with Johnny’s head but the body doesn’t match Johnny’s build he’s more athletic than Reed.
  • @GuyWebz
    I would love to see a powered down classic Johnny Storm in light blue and black WITH this body
  • @tombowling8646
    Robo, this is the effusive Johnny Storm figure that we've all been waiting for!
  • It looks different than I expected with the orange solid paint on the hair and wrists. Definitely improved over the Walgreens one.
  • @gecko3950
    Hope to see a review on the Select version Great review as always 👌🔥
  • @Getwright-
    I LOVE the FF. This is probably the first full wave ive wanted to buy in a long time (its a shame that it doesn’t come with a BAF)
  • @Santanilla
    Great flying pose 👌👌👌 will copy thanks!
  • I bought the Sue and Johnny alternates, which is her invisible and him flame off. I am SO glad they gave us that option. I just said this in another videos comment section but he pulled out Sunfire and it made me think it... I need BANSHEE. The same way I bought the FF wave with the Super-Skrull and then bout this, give me classic Banshee in the green and yellow from Giant Sized and you can have him in his Gen X blue and yellow X-Men uniform and I'll buy both.
  • @toddtaylor6506
    Could put a small dab of silicone on that hand peg .. it dries gummy but is a solid hold and should be easy enough to remove if you want to at some point
  • Man I so want these retro wave Fantastic 4 figures, but I've vowed not to get doubles of any more Marvel Legends that I already have a version of in order to save money. With that said, whilst I'm happy with the last set from the Super Skrull wave these designs appeal to me way more, but whilst I could just sell those earlier ones I did a repaint on that Thing figure to add the brown wash and I love how it looks, not sure I'd be able to part with it. Eh, I'll figure something out eventually, great review either way.
  • @wolfprime
    You answered the question I had. The Select Hammond head on this body . . The hunt begins!
  • @mrforrest
    Opened mine yesterday and LOOOOOOVE it!
