hey guys we host superstar thank you very much
it's daredevil now this is the original red dead devil that came out in 2015 as
a part of the hob goblin bath wave and i finally have him in my
collection i'm saying that i have a half i have had
this a long time hence the very wiggly body
uh but i'm finally getting around to review him it was one that i picked up
from marvel legends community uk so thank you to the guys over there who
managed to hook us up with an awesome awesome figure from long
ago it's the classic daredevil so i needed
this in my collection as a big daredevil fan
i grew up reading the daredevil books and
definitely needed a traditional classic daredevil in my collection that wasn't
the uh the ben affleck version should we say
from marvel's legs and there is that new version of him
coming as well in the modern black and silver armor in the classic collection
which is very nice and we've also had the um the other
sort of black and red costume we've had over the years as well and we've also
had the original first appearance yellow which i have
reviewed on the channel so please make sure you check out our
daredevil um playlist i'll leave a link in the description
where you can check out the other daredevil reviews including elektra
and bullseye but for now guys let's take a look at daredevil himself so he's very
articulate i said i really like the articulation this character
so you can look all the way up all the way down as well as left and right
the arms do lift up at this top edge here to also rotate there's also
rotation at the bicep with a double hinged elbow
and the hands are on a ball joint so you can make his arms pull all the way in
which is very cool and dead needs to be a very loose
character he's got a lot of very um you know athletic abilities um you
know gymnastics and stuff like so he needs to be able to be very
articulated he's got a good crunch mechanism that crunches forward as well
as backwards and he's also got that weight swivel his
legs lift out all the way as well as forwards and backwards with a
top thigh cut a double hinged knee there's also the
boot cup and the feet are on rocker and pivot i
do have the original white belly club that came with him but i don't use it
very often i use the red one that came with the other daredevil
um that's the one i tend to use with him but i have got the white one somewhere
it's just i have got a big box of accessories and
it's impossible to find things in there sometimes
so i just got this red one to use in the video
if you remember it's the same one that i used in the in the yellow daredevil
review i tend to keep this red club on the red
daredevil i kind of like how it looks together
especially when you make a photo at night with him and have him stood
somewhere that it doesn't look as red and it looks quite nice
you know the contrast off the whole figure
again i wish we could get a proper billy club at some point i know that we use
this thing to death now um
i'd like a proper i would like a civilian matt murdock as well in his
lawyer's outfit with a proper blonde white cane as well
i think that'll be awesome
well you guys wouldn't learn because i how cool would it be to make a diorama
of a courtroom and have matt murdock as the you know the lawyer that'd be
awesome
yeah i love this figure so much it's one of those characters that's just so
iconic it needs to be in the collection so had
to get him so guys without further ado let's head
on down to the desk cam and give you guys an up close personal look
at daredevil
so the one thing that's always annoyed me about the billy club that's always
been given to us by marvel and by hasbro is that it's not connected
by a wire normally in the comic books you will
always see that this billy club is connected by an interconnecting wire
that holds the two together to be used in a nunchuck style fashion
in the in the arts in actual version they give us it's just
two pieces of plastic pushed together with no wire
and the ends cannot be used as a grappling hook just like it is used also
in the comic books this seems to be based on the original
concept of his nunchuck which was a police baton that he then
uh kept in his locker at the gym and used it to save a bunch of orphans from
from a building i believe when he was fighting kingdom
that was way back in the day the modern depiction of daredevil especially in his
red attire would mean that the nunchuck style billy
club should have the wire in the middle that's my only gripe with this one and
that's what muppet labs would add to this billy club if they
could don't go waving nothing around
all right guys here is daredevil out of the packaging looking pretty swish
i'm really liking this character alexa this is the traditional daredevil it's
one nothing everyone needs in their collection
just because it's the traditional classic daredevil
it's pretty hard to track down now they've been a 2015 figure
not a lot of these exist when you do find them they're quite expensive i was
lucky to get them during that period where it was still okay to find
uh so i managed to pick one over about 24.99
so i'm quite happy with my price on that one you still see a lot of characters
from this way floating around on the groups though
including the um you know the is it spider spider woman
is it in this wave and also the 2099 spiderman
and you still see um the uh the bath piece flying around quite
regular as well as the back pieces have got a lot better
since then but people still love this one
so i don't know they've never reproduced a classic
daredevil and i was very surprised with the recent
you know saying they're going to make the black and silver one i look like the
armored daredevil when they haven't recreated this one yet
i was saying i was half expecting this to be the one
that created as a part of the uh sort of original your classic animated look
we're going in detail guys there aren't many issues with this character the the
actual paintwork is very immaculate obviously it will have
dulled a little bit over the years it is quite an old figure now so the paintwork
may have changed um but this doesn't seem to be any
issues with the paintwork there's definitely no issues with warping or
anything the figure is a little bit loose but again that's just due to the
age and the fact that i've posed it so often
and used it for photography and everything
remember a while back that i used it with the um when i did my wilson fist
review and i had some really good photos within
with the wilson face character
and again there is a link that will be in the description or at the end of the
video where you can check out all the other
sort of daredevil character reviews including uh you know the wilson fisk
