NECA Gears of Wars 3 Action Figures Review

[oisingkelly227]

the girl is anya

[toys210]

@oisingkelly227 yea hehe thanks

[moocw7889]

im not sure if ur just into the toys or if u play gears of war 3 as well, i recently got back into gears of war 3, but if u hav an xbox with live, we should play some time, unless u dont want to.. an too be safe we could exchange g-tags in a pm so neither of us get hacked by trolls on u-tube, lol

[toys210]

@moocw7889 i like the figures I have also played all the games as well. Sorry unfortunately I currently am not giving out my gamertag. I am still debating, I might eventually tho.

[moocw7889]

@toys210 alright, if u change ur mind then hit me up again, i dont hav too many friends that play this game... :)

[HonorableTester]

oh did you fix that left joint yet?

[toys210]

@HonorableTester the original one, I actually returned it back to toys r us. as for others I had to either use the freezer trick and hair dryer trick to get all the joints back to normal working order

[HonorableTester]

@toys210 lol too me seemed like a horrible case of globed paint or fused plastic like the mcfarlane series 1 halo 3 figures had.

[toys210]

@HonorableTester yea they need to stop painting around the joints

[HonorableTester]

@toys210 or at least let the paint dry all the way and wipe the extra paint off.

[HonorableTester]

i had marus for two and a half months but his left arms is still stiff i've been trying too move it still >:(

[toys210]

@HonorableTester where is the stiffness? the elbow? or the shoulder

[HonorableTester]

@toys210 the left shoulder where it turns around below the ball hench at the bicepe area but i nearly got it it moves but its really hard too turn (srry 4 my spelling lol im rushing)

[toys210]

@HonorableTester oh yea, I think I know where you are talkin about. That swivel joint is always stiff. I usually heat up that section first and then stick a screw driver (flat heat) in there to try and unstick that section. But you got to be careful tho, cos that peg is made out of softer rubber and there are only 2 thin section connecting the peg with the hinged section so watch where you stick the screw driver

[HonorableTester]

@toys210 thanks lol hope it helps but my clay carmine right arm keeps poping off i need a way too fix it i might need too use glue lol

[ultramanhulk2099]

do you have x box live

[toys210]

@ultramanhulk2099 yea, but i currently am not giving out my gamertag tho. I am still debating whether to do that or not.. sorry

[ultramanhulk2099]

@toys210 its ok but when u want to send me a message

[onyxmanproductions]

@toys210 and when i get anya i she didnt have any problem so i think '' i have one good action figure and 2 with some problems'' so i take marcus and i rip his arm and i go to toys r us and i change it for 3 new and the guy ask me ''any problem'' and i say ''yeah the arms fell off'' and i have the series 1 on theyr packaged. HEHEHHEEHe

[toys210]

@onyxmanproductions hehehe

[onyxmanproductions]

@toys210 maybe the fake piece on the left arm its a error like if N.E.C.A. didnt cut the part so thats why is only 1 piece for example my first figure was marcus but i was so exited that i didnt check the figure and it was the last one on toys r us but when i opened i notice that the retro have a really bad painting i was like ''WTF N.E.C.A. this looks like a elementary student paint this'' and when i get carmine i opended but his are fell off everytime i try to put the lancer and i get angry.

[onyxmanproductions]

i buy the 2 pack on toywiz and is coming now:) i cant wait, nice video

[toys210]

@onyxmanproductions cool, congrats dude, some of the joints are really stiff too, hopefully you will have better luck

[ProductionMFbeyblade]

[toys210]

@freddytayam oh i c, thanks

[KingofTheeAZ]

@toys210 So did u ever get an answer back from twitter I almost bought this set today Also not to be a hassle but I sent u a message and it's been a week so I figure better safe than sorry did u get my 6 part contest entry? I ask because tommorow is the last day and I have school if not it's on my page hope to hear from u soon have a happy st. Nickolas day

[toys210]

@KingofTheeAZ there are a few out there with this non-working joint, but if you get it at toys r us you can always return it or exchange it if there's a problem. no I dindt hear back from neca, but i heard a few utubers having this same problem. I will add you to my contest, I watched the vids already thanks for entering :) good luck

[lisalisa966]

[tayluhpayge]

I can seem to find a Sam figure anywhere. Have they released her yet?

[toys210]

@tayluhpayge to my knowledge, she hasnt been announced yet

[ZzLeoMessi10Zz]

I WANT CLAYTON CAMINE YOU BITCH!!!

[toys210]

@ZzLeoMessi10Zz ummm maybe you should go buy one?

[MickyKelly91]

LocusTTTTTTTT! Christ the lord learn to say the word

[toys210]

@MickyKelly91 perhaps if you clean out those ears of your, you might be able to hear better.

[MickyKelly91]

@toys210 They're filled with my beeswax

[toys210]

@MickyKelly91 well there you go, now be a good little boy and clean them out and you can hear better

[MickyKelly91]

@toys210 No problem. I'll do that, and you learn how to say the letter T

[toys210]

@MickyKelly91 as I have mentioned, clean out those ears so you can hear it.

[mundocommands]

nice review, thanks and umm can u also do Clayton Carmine figure too?please thx alot.

[toys210]

@mundocommands thanks dude, yea i will once i find them at stores. I have not seen them at my toys r us yet

[TheJuan1674]

believe that the figures you hear come to mexico

???

[oreofan12]

hey is it wierd that he only remembers the boy names of the charecters

[toys210]

@oreofan12 I think is even weirder you would focus on something like that. So the reason you watch this video was not for the review of these figures. Hmm you need to think long and hard about what you are trying to hide about yourself.

[oreofan12]

@toys210 well hey i didnt mean any harm i was not even being honest i actually like watching your videos they help me to pick out a figure for my collection thats why i subscribed. Its not everyday someone gives you good reviews in HD

[ghettochildlB]

Does it come with the retro lancer and the regular hammer burst?

[toys210]

@ghettochildlB if you are referring to the single figure, I think it only comes with a retro lancer

[SonicfanEveie]

awesome, i've just pre ordered Anya for december

[toys210]

@SonicfanEveie cool, i hope you get them soon, well actually if it comes in december it would be perfect for christmas

[SonicfanEveie]

@toys210 thanks, I can't wait she'll be my first gears figure XD

[toys210]

@DaneBrony no prob

[Aztexwarrior]

its just stuck dude its not fake lol ive had a few like that

[toys210]

@Aztexwarrior oh trust me, I took that joint out of the figure and looked at it up close and personal, and that whole joint was one piece.

[Aztexwarrior]

@Aztexwarrior maybe it just melted together i really doubt they made it one piece

[megaG209]

It looks cool, but wats with the arm?

[ggFrenzy]

I just got mine in the mail today, and the only issue that I'm having is that Marcus's left leg at the "knee joint" wont move, so his leg is stuck straight. has anyone else had this problem and are there any solutions?

[toys210]

@ggFrenzy you can try using a thin blade or a small glasses type flat head screwdriver and slip it through the joint and you should be able to free up the paint or oil problem that's costing the joint to not move. But do this very very carefully, cos you dont want to hurt yourself. hopefully this works, good luck

[ggFrenzy]

@toys210 i fiddled for about 2 h ours with it and no dice, i ended up fiddling to hard and snapped his boot off the leg completely, now im really sad rofl.

[toys210]

@ggFrenzy where did you get it? was it from toys r us? if so, you can probably get an exchange

[geico39]

When do the official figure come out?

[toys210]

@geico39 they should be shipping now.

[hackwater9reviews]

[toys210]

@bubbaloc69 learn how to type first, because I have no clue what you just said

[ozbux]

if you heat up the foot, there actually is toe articulation.

[toys210]

@ozbux thanks for the info, yea I found out a few days after, but it was still a pain to get that joint working, I had to take the pin out and everything

[AKUMARI0]

[Redwolf521]

do they just sell the seprate figures not in packs at target

[BryceHunterTV]

you thought you "broked" it? lol are you for real.

[toys210]

@BryceHunterTV wel maybe you need to hear it again a little better, perhaps clean out your ears a bit first

[killervenom2478]

Ohh thank u its actually working great but not so good on the legs if u know thers litle peices of detail in there but it takes awhile to get off thanks dud u helped alot

[killervenom2478]

@toys210 ohh thank u man u helped alot n its playdoh soo yeah thanks agein dud

[killervenom2478]

@toys210 hay one last question how do u remove clay like playdoh of action figures cous my sister rubed clay all over this spider man figure I tride water but what do u suggest do I try hot water or somthing else

Thanks alot

[toys210]

@killervenom2478 is it clay or playdoh? Cos if it's clay it will dry and that might be a pain to get it off, but if it's playdoh, you might try using warm to hot water and you might need a tooth brush to brush out those playdoh. Don't brush it too hard tho.

[Future6556]

yeah the blond chick is named anya

[NeonFireSpark]

lucky son of a mother

[toys210]

@NeonFireSpark hehe well you can probably still find this set at toys r us

[Redwolf521]

no one get these figures ecept for toys r us r they at target???

[toys210]

@Redwolf521 no, not target, they dont really sell neca stuff. Toys r us would pretty much be the only retail store that sells this pack or other neca. Spencers used to sell them but not anymore i think.

[killervenom2478]

@toys210 wow cool..weird I was thinking of that n I was going to tell u if u coud ask them.cool I knew neca would pull somthing like that but I hop anthony dosent come with the drones cruch movment if u know what I mean but great man I cool at reviewing this stuff.great edevice..i think thats how u spell it but yea I bet there going to be hard to find but I know this toys r us thats way far from the city so not alot of ppl go there.hopfully I will find them in december but thanks agein dud

[toys210]

@killervenom2478 no prob dude, i hope you find and be able to get these figures soon :)

[killervenom2478]

@toys210 oh ok cool I might get them cous am not planin on getting marcus mainly of the locust grunt are u getting carmine cous I woud love to se a review. And great

[toys210]

@killervenom2478 yea i think i will probably get the carmine figure too, but they are coming out with a 3 pack of brothers tho

[killervenom2478]

@toys210 ohh well thanks n great review ur my faverite reviewer cous u know alot about action figures wether or not to buy them still are thay worth buying? N thanks agein 4 the review

[toys210]

@killervenom2478 thanks for the kind words dude. The only real reason why ppl buy this set is mainly for the flaming weapons. But if you don't really care for it, I say wait til the single figure version comes out. But if you don't plan on getting the single marcus fig, this 2 pack is cool to pick up

[MrTORO605]

wait u said that its cause i didnt see the hole video and now i did

[MrTORO605]

hey toys210 u know that can take the magnum of the locust grunt right?

[toys210]

@MrTORO605 yup and marcus looks great holding that magnum too

[killervenom2478]

Wait has neca responded to u yet cous im planing on buying this...well im still buying it but u know I want to know

[toys210]

@killervenom2478 they didnt reply at all. So i returned it to toys r us instead.

[FsGxMeNtAl]

[toys210]

@FsGxMeNtAl is cool tho, I was able to return it.

[ezongz]

@toys210 grate now im totally picking thes gise up! thanks : )

[MegaFirewizard101]

Mine moves :)

[toys210]

@MegaFirewizard101 cool

[CantankerousHippo]

@toys210 I got My figure pack from Gamestop, I ordered the Journey's End Marcus but surprisingly got this instead, I'm happy either way. Anyways my figure just needed some loosening, the arms do lower now. :D

[toys210]

@CantankerousHippo yea same here, so now i got two 2 pack lol

[unoitisim]

one question howthe hell did you get those i want one so bad

[toys210]

@unoitisim i get them from toys r us

[principioyrenovacion]

Hello toys210. I really like you reviews and i have a question for you. You see, I plan to buy a Marcus Fenix soon, and I would like to know your opinion. What do you think is better? This Marcus from "GOW3" or one of the Marcus from GOW2? (I love the armor of the second, but this one looks like a badass with the arms uncovered).

If you could buy just one. What would be your choice?

Thnks in advance for you time to answer this! Greetings!

[toys210]

@principioyrenovacion thanks for the kind words. If i can only get one, I think I would get Gears 3 Marcus, cos it is newer, and articulation is better than previous ones. Granted that with more articulation means more chances of breaking, but I still prefers gears 3 marcus more. suit is cool, and i really like the look of the retro lancer

[principioyrenovacion]

@toys210 Thank you for your answer. I will have your words in mind when I decide on which one.

Either way, both are great! :)

Greetings!

[MikeeyD01]

how did u get them that quick?

[toys210]

@MikeeyD01 i picked them up from toys r us. I guess my local store release them a bit early. And I am on the west coast, so maybe that also a reason why.

[MikeeyD01]

@toys210 ahh ok im getting the clayton carmine for chirstmas...

[toys210]

@MikeeyD01 cool, congrats dude

[MikeeyD01]

@toys210 YAAAYUA



[CantankerousHippo]

My Marcus' arms is hindered as well your not alone

[toys210]

@CantankerousHippo if you have a problem with it, i say exchange it if you got it at toys r us, cos they will do it no prob. I emailed neca, but they never did reply.

[talonthecutie]

thats stupid that they did that im gina get that to

[toys210]

@talonthecutie yea i returned it cos of the defective joint

[jabronker]

So the locust is a reissue? That kinda sucks though, because I'm guessing the white theron's are a reuse of the old molds, which had very limited leg posebility. And I really wanted a theron with the type of mask/helmet that is holding the butcher knife in the promo photos.

[toys210]

@jabronker yea that locust is a reissue, but the marcus is cool tho

[BaRd3L2]

@toys210 the locust head is new but thts it

[toys210]

@BaRd3L2 cool

[TotalRockStar13]

does all the gow 3 figures look like that ? or is that one messed up i hope so cause on that one the paint job looks really bad and the armour is silver i thought it was grey 'o well im gonna get it :)

[toys210]

@TotalRockStar13 from what ppl been telling me, sound like I am the only one with this problem, so you might be fine

[supercogsoldier117]

@toys210 Just to let you know the locust isn't a reissue it looks different and cooler looks how the Gears of War 3 Locust Drone

[toys210]

@supercogsoldier117 really? oops, cos I have a figure very similar pose too

[geico39]

They made Marcus look ugly as fuck xD

[toys210]

@geico39 hehe well, that's how he looks in the game too

[samroshan]

@toys210 I think the jaw is much wider on the figure than the game and previous series

[EGnadfan284]

Marcus looks really bad, compare to the toy fair version. His head, his armor, the articulations, all looks very bad.... how could they sell this shit ?????

[toys210]

@EGnadfan284 yea at toy fair they were showing the bigger version and they are definitely painted way better cos they are the prototype. But for mass producing, I think they did a pretty good job at it

[guaximingox]

one question this figure is more resistant than the previus figure of marcus in gears of war 2??? THANKS

[toys210]

@guaximingox yea gears 3 marcus definitely got more resistant than the previous figures. took me a long time just to loosen up all the joints

[ecobian33]

Hey toys210 my figure was like yours to however like you I used a knife and cut away the excessive paint that was between the joints and now im able move both arms completely. Try to cut into it some more it should work for you too.

[toys210]

@ecobian33 yea i tried that too, but it didnt work for me with that one joint

[halo3odstmaster22]

can't wait to get carmine!

[toys210]

@halo3odstmaster22 same here, but I might wait for the 3 pack to come out tho, all 3 brothers

[guaximingox]

when they come the figures in individual packaging???? you know???? thanks :D

[toys210]

@guaximingox well this is a 2 pack which is a toys r us exclusive, but they are selling regular figures individually packaged. I think those are coming out end of the month

[guaximingox]

@toys210 thanks men, thanks very much :D

[toys210]

@guaximingox no prob dude

[ThirdStrikeReviews]

nice review man! hopefully the problem with the joints and all won't be for every figure... coz i just love these figures... :)

[toys210]

@ThirdStrikeReviews yea i hope to soo

[xF3ARTH3FALL3Nx]

@toys210 how much was the 2 pack at toys r us?

[toys210]

@xF3ARTH3FALL3Nx 30 dollars

[xF3ARTH3FALL3Nx]

@toys210 also if you soak tese in hot water the joints loosen and prevent brekin but dont weaken the joints

[toys210]

@xF3ARTH3FALL3Nx yea but it only work on certain joints tho, cos with rubber joints, you might accidentally twist that whole peg off. so yea certain types of joints need certain type of solution :)

[xF3ARTH3FALL3Nx]

@toys210 ahhh ok. i wanna pick it up but idk if there sellin it by me imma check today

[toys210]

@xF3ARTH3FALL3Nx ok good luck dude

[Gowlover4578]

I hope neca didn't fuck up the figures I'm a big collecter for these and I'll be pissed if there all like this by the way good review

[toys210]

@Gowlover4578 they said it is probably a factory error, i will upload an update and hopefully when ppl receive theirs they can comment so i can get an idea whether this is an isolated issue or what

[NoelTheMole]

Are there any tips to making the ones arms ball joint work?

[toys210]

@NoelTheMole if it's the shoulder you can try sticking an xacto knife into the slot, that's how I finally figure out that one ball hinge joint. But if other joints are sticking, I suggest putting it in the freezer for an hour and then try turning.
