I enjoy the guy's reviews to be honest, and truthfully, I value his opinion over that of many of the more popular YouTubers, because he's more willing to call a spade a spade. (And I watch A LOT of different reviewers, including MCUCollector, Toy Bro, Unparalleled Universe, Optibotimus, DAmazing, and others...) I feel a lot of these YouTube influencers give toy companies a pass in order to not burn bridges with their suppliers who provide them with review samples or sponsorships. Does Anthony nitpick? Yes.
Does he harp on issues like anatomy a bit much? Absolutely. Is he constantly plugging his own products? It's his channel...so why shouldn't he? In the end though, not everything gets a ten out of ten or an orgasmic S.U.D. rating like some reviewers tend to give, and that's what gets my attention. When Anthony gives something a good review rating, or gushes about something in a video, it's the fact that he's not so quick (or easy) to give praise. It becomes a cause for me to take notice, as it makes the review feel just a tad bit more credible than all the rest.

Not everything gets an orgasmic S.U.D. either, guess everyone has their own biases

Finished Strong Guy

Aside from an official Wolfsbane, I wouldn't mind Val, Random and Shard
