hey guys me who supersorrell thank you very much cheering in the crack
it's the hobgoblin i'm very excited to have this in hand i got this from smith's recently
and it looks awesome i've been dying for a proper retro version of hobgoblin for such a long time
and we finally have him in the collection so i'm gonna bust him out of his box today and
we'll take a closer look at this awesome action figure because i've been dying for this for so
long finally having he looks so cool he's got his glider and everything obviously very similar
to uh hogwarts to green goblin in the ways of the glider and the little satchel and stuff but
it's hobgoblin man yes this is the goblin that i remember from the spiderman cartoon to be honest
this is what i'll always remember as the goblin for me was the hobgoblin
so here he is guys in the box as i say we've got the hobgoblin comes with one of the pumpkin bombs
and he's got this little little satchel bag and he's got the glider as well he's on that retro
card back and all the other figures have been coming on recently from the spiderman series which
is pretty nice very reminiscent of the 90s and we've got a write-up on the back which does state
deploying an eerie arsenal of pumpkin bombs and razor sharp bats from his glove from his goblin
glider the criminal mustang hobgoblin has spider-man constantly on his guard
and of course today i have brought out uh the retro spidey and of course the goblin as well
for comparisons and side by sides right without further ado let's jump straight in and open
this bad boy up because i have been like say dying to get this one out just get him out of his box
all right
all right so we've got the glider
little bag
pumpkin bomb
hate when they put the capes in line
and we'll no longer be needing this you guys know what we do with this we go
right all right here we go
right guys so here he is out of the packaging looking absolutely awesome if we can get the
camera to focus on his face a little bit there can we do it maybe but probably
better on the desk cam but either way he looks awesome uh so this is the new goblin
it's got nice blue and orange going on i love that nice orange cape as well on the back very
decent looking figure as well is very nice very basic but it's it's definitely in keeping with
the club with classic hobgoblin they've given him the big cuffed gloves which is nice i like those
oh very stiff that's good though i don't like figures that go loose too fast so
let's look at articulation on him so the head is on a ball joint so you can make
him look down pretty far actually as well as up obviously not up as much due to the
soft but use a little the back of the sort of hood design however that can be you know
moved and obviously that is a separate piece actually so if we pop the head off
we pop the head off i believe that's a whole separate piece
because the head is moving inside of the actual hood
yeah i believe there's like i think there's just
like a little bit of glue up top here so if you did want to
separate this you could which is interesting and obviously the cape is removable as well
so that's nice to know
the only thing that upsets me is that these two pieces aren't connected obviously the hood and the
and the cloak i think should all be one piece but anyway yeah i'm lifted with this side engine to
also rotate the rotation of the bicep with doable hinged biceps and the hands are on ball joints you
can lift your legs outwards pretty far as well as forwards backwards there is top thigh cut there
durable hinged knees and there is a boot cut amphi iron rocker and pivot there are display pegs
sure you wish to use display base not that you're going to need to however you probably need those
display pegs for them i know you don't because the glider's got footholds so there's no stand
to have him flying on it his feet are staying in the little hooves
they're just popping out every time i put the other one in the one pops out
i'm not really able to get him to stand properly with it he's in the bit he's in the wrong pose
there to be honest but yeah i'm struggling there badly she kind of want him punched
arms out a little bit for balance
i mean that's how he's gonna be in the car too and that top fire just got very loose as well damn
she kind of want him like that and as soon as you let go because you have to use it you're
gonna have to use something to hold him up to make him fly so you're gonna have to use
a flight stand anyway and the moment you let go of the bottom the moment you remove the pressure
from the bottom his feet just pop straight out any form of pressure and he's gone so that's
that's about it you're gonna get out of him and again like say as soon as i let go of that base
i mean what i'll do guys is we'll head on down to the desk cam to give you guys an up
close personal look at the hot goblin so let's head on down to the desk cam
and show you the whole goblins don't know where i'm going with
not gonna lie guys like say my figure got my finger got uh very loose very fast i'm
trying to use that stupid glider um like i say the pumpkin bomb is okay on this one the same as the
same as goblins before you have to rotate the hand sort of outwards like this
and place it on i haven't found a way of making him actually grab it maybe a
little spot of blue tack maybe but people don't like you in that people like to do it properly
and the little satchel thing it's a little bit too big i think a little bit too long on the ropes so
um it does just slide down his arm every now and again as well which is a bit irritating
that's the reason i don't like goblins it's the same one that we've had before
so i mean the parts are different they haven't used the same stuff as you can see obviously that
satchel's gonna do man it keeps falling down so yeah they have done different things on them so um
they are very different characters as you can see they do look good together though oh my god yeah
this is though it's so disheartening because i really want to like this figure
he's awesome and i love him but i don't know
that gliders wound me up does he stand on the i'm tempted i'm really tempted now does the
other does he stand on this glider so no i know he didn't need it on the one that came with him
i'm i'm still wondering whether i'm doing it the right way but i would have thought because
obviously that that piece is at the back to make it fly the back heads at the front
so that is the way it is oh that's why it stayed on this one he's got the shoes
the shoes on this one i've got grooves on them and i've got the little hook at the front
so he's i remember remember how he stayed on there because of those those like really held
him in look and he's quite firmly in there these shoes are too flat
and they're too smooth so they fall out because i mean you can even stand him on that one if you got
him in the right position he would actually just stand on it like that see so the glider isn't made
for the hobgoblin not in the same way the shoes on this one are too
flat there's no hook at the front there's nothing to hold it onto so it just slides off
so that that is literally the main issue i'm taking
this stupid satchel off now he's gonna do my head in stupid sagittal get off
so yeah see what i mean so that's the reason it holds onto this one but not this one
i'm gonna try again with this one move you out the way
we're going to go we're going to try one more time foot in
oh first foot popped out
come on you can see i can do it i just did it with the green goblin there we go right he's in
not ideal though
and he's gone again there's nothing to hook him in in my personal opinion
i don't know maybe it's just my particular figure that i've been that i've got here and maybe it's
just this one i don't know but i don't i don't want this to become the thing that makes me
upset about the figure because i do love the figure itself i'm a massive fan of hobgoblin
i'd say from the old the old spider-man cartoons hobgoblin was my absolute fave
he was always my favorite villain on the program
so i'm very happy to that we finally have a hobgoblin and i've been wanting one for so long
it's just a shame that it you know came with the few little niggles that it did
but i'm still happy to have a hob goblin finally in the collection
especially because they've done such a good job with the face sculpt as well it looks so good
but guys what are your thoughts let me know in the comments below and let's go back to the main
cam and finish off this goblin video so guys what are your thoughts on this one let me know
