He's massive, highly detailed, suprisingly well articulated, and the paint apps are so good that I thought the thing was actually dirty when I first got it. Dragon Man is another Toybiz figure that really impresses me. I don't have him but I'd pay over a $100 for him in good condition. I think Toybiz mainly had a problem with their human figures.

The way I feel about Toybiz is that it's better to have that than nothing, and that there are definitely characters I'd prioritize seeing made by Hasbro that were not made by Toybiz than Hasbro updates. But, that when Hasbro updates, it's going to be better.

Like we had someone a few years ago that said that the Toybiz versions didn't count? I disagree - what's that even mean, that they weren't made - that the fact that I have some of those Toybiz versions was null and void because they weren't Hasbro? Not to me. And for a long time i did prioritize getting never done before characters over remakes, for the most part.

Of course that all changed once we got Polaris and Enchantress. I kid, somewhat. Okay, I'm not kidding. I'm all up for redos once we got those out of the way. But, when I do my wishlist I tend to stick to never done before characters, because I DO feel that having Toybiz version is better than nothing. I'll gladly stick with my Toybiz Nightcrawler if it meant getting a Firestar figure.
