TOYFARCE REVIEW: HOT TOYS STAR WARS: RETURN OF THE JEDI 40th ANNIVERSARY DARTH VADER (DELUXE EDITION) This week, we're having a look at the Star Wars: Return of the Jedi 40th Anniversary Deluxe Edition figure of Darth Vader from Hot Toys. I had been waiting for a Darth Vader figure from Hot Toys that would have the unmasked head, in order to have a 'complete' figure, but Hot Toys went a step further and added a Force lightning, transparent blue helmet, which made the deal even better! This is the ultimate Darth Vader figure to me, and I don't see how it can be topped. Full review with tons of pics on Toy News International (link in bio)! More news at 11:00...

REVIEW: HASBRO’S MARVEL LEGENDS RETRO COLLECTION DR. DOOM!

Last week, the Marvel Legends team announced a new Retro Fantastic Four wave, so I figured it was time to review that Dr. Doom!

TOYFARCE REVIEWS:

HASBRO’S MARVEL LEGENDS RETRO COLLECTION DR. DOOM!

It’s Wednesday, you know what that means… ToyFarce reviews!

CALL FOR FOUR! FANTASTIC FOUR!

Last week, the Marvel Legends team announced a new Retro Fantastic Four wave, so I figured it was time to maybe open that figure, which had been on my “pile of depression” since the beginning of the year. I never really planned to keep it MOC, but the nostalgia value of that packaging made me keep it mint for a while, to appreciate and enjoy it. I actually had the ToyBiz version from 1994 when I was a kid, so it definitely brought up some nostalgia (even though the old one had a really crappy cape and ‘arm elongating action’).

Ok… Time to open it… *inhales deeply*…

Bask in the glory that is Doom, the ruler of Latveria!

That Retro collection Dr. Doom is a beautiful figure. It mostly re-uses the sculpts from a previous Doom, but with the same color scheme as the old ToyBiz figure from the 90’s. Great articulations, there’s even slits in the tunic’s “skirt”, which allow him to do the split. My only nit pick is with the ankle articulations, mine are a bit stiff and I can’t really place the feet at a correct angle, because it would be between 2 hinges to have him stand up correctly. Also, it seems the piece holding the foot is a bit small, so moving the feet back and forth too much feels like it’s going to break.

The sculpts on the armors, with all the hinges and bolts look amazing too.

The headsculpt looks great, even if crooked inside the hood (common issue, it seems). There is a soft goods collar piece.

Accessories include extra hands, 2 books about the magic and dark arts (I assume), a ultimate nullifier, green magic effects, and jet fire effects.

*So this is how I can set my hands on fire? Fascinating…*

*A book about how to strangle people from afar.*

*An Ultimate Nullifier! This will come in handy against Galactus… Soon…*

Dr. Doom’s gun was in his holster in the packaging, so I assumed it was just sculpted on it. Turns out it’s an actual gun that can be removed!

You can also turn your Dr. Doom into a Doombot by cleverly removing his cape!

I’M NO LONGER THE HOOD! I AM NOW THE CAPE! - *sigh*

Trying to recreate that epic panel from the comic book, ToyFarce style…

More news at 11:00… FOOL! Doctor Doom toots as he pleases!
