Possibly the worst official action figure ever | Ashens

hello happy New Year everyone right that's that out of the way now this year I was planning an investigation into trying to find the very worst action figure ever officially released well I'm going to be honest I think I've knocked out of the park on the first one so this may prove to be arguably the shortest video series in history well actually I've got an idea for a second one but it works in a slightly different principle cuz when it comes to wrong-headed design I don't think we're going to be beating this one anytime soon presenting Aunt May from Spiderman from the Marvel Comics famous cover series the idea was they would take a famous cover and make a kind of doll basically um out of one of the characters on it it's easy in it 8 in Ultra posable figure with authentic fabric costume yeah they were very doll likee basically I think it's the fabric costume that makes it like that this wasn't the best series in the world from old toy beers but my God aen May here really does take all the biscuits and then all the biscuits over the floor seriously there's a reason I've used a Post-It notes to cover this to uh alleviate the horror for at least a short period so anyway Spiderman and Aunt May yes this is uh the person who took Spider-Man in when his parents disappeared or died depending on the continuity her and Uncle Ben but then Spider-Man was greedy and he didn't save Uncle Ben so Uncle Ben died and he is sad but with great power comes a great off kilter bum apparently that's sort of gone a bit sideways there isn't it that's weird anyway on this specific cover the figures of this version of Aunt May if you haven't guessed so stay back Spider-man I I warn you if you take one more step towards that poor man I'm going to fire and may assassin this is it uh thanks can actually read what it says under that writing there but yeah the Arc was something like um she find Dr us and for some reason doesn't realize he's a villain despite the fact he's got like massive octopus tentacles and he's in the news all the time actually I've probably misunderstood that cuz that's really ridiculous anyway yep she of course doesn't know that Peter Parker is in fact Spider-Man and it's like her nephew or is it great nephew I don't know she seems an awful lot older than you would expect his aunt to be the um Aunt May in Civil War is more the sort of age you would expect isn't it anyway Amazing Spider-Man we now of course have to sing the 60 Spider-Man theme music it's great Spiderman Spiderman does whatever a spider can like have eight legs and eight eyes no he doesn't it's all lies look out this song is misleading wow for some reason I've now gotten my head the um '90s cartoon Spider-Man theme God that was really weird it was just like sort of power chords grinding on a guitar while some sort of very heavily digitally distorted voice goes spider blood spider blood radioactive spider blood in the background it's it was all a bit weird anyway I'm getting completely off tack here we're not here to talk about songs we're here to see what the people at toy Biz thought the best way to render this version of Aunt May was you know what I didn't even give her a gun are you ready are you steady no you're not cuz nothing will prepare you we will count down three two sorry let's go for it yeah you see it's it's great enough really when you just look at the face but um it's like they knew how horrendous it was by the way they packaged it it's got one arm in the air like some sort of monstrous Frankenstein's creature lumbering towards you to pull your bloody limbs off I'm going to have to actually move this up cuz this is taller than I had anticipated somehow there we are let's get a good look at that then shall we come here Peter come here it's time for your dinner Peter Peter good God so yeah um why is her forehead so big nobody knows why is there loads of dirt around her mouth has she been eating loads of dirt nobody knows why is she got one arm in the air braced as if to attack within human strength no Nobody Knows Why does her head look so small compared to her body well that's probably something to do with the um clothes um it's making the body look bigger than it is but still the head seems tiny so we let it out of the box oh God it's probably all sorts of evil spirits going to come out of here now there she is May needs to feed the little bit of hair coming off there really adding to the experience I haven't actually got it out of the box before so no that's not my fault so let's have a look at this amazing all velcroed up at the back there and her Cas scary sweater see it doesn't even look anything particularly like the um thing here it's like it's not even it's supposed to be this design but this is like a frilly apron and it's white and it's got a collar none of these things are going on she's wearing a dress whereas in here she's wearing a skirt and a jumper it's not even I mean why is her hair so high up on her head the whole thing is just designed wrongly and that's be oh God these weird little carpet slippers she's got going on good grief going to have a quick check of the underwear oh my God it's like frilly Bloomers really is astonishing on so many levels but yeah let's just get another look at that face cuz uh you need that in your life hi I'm ant May human growth hormone is a very dangerous thing to inject into your face believe me I learned so yeah give granny a kiss give actually the more I look at this the more it seems her head is comically undersized look at these giant Limbs and hands [Music] [Laughter] sorry I hadn't spotted that in the Box the arms were up and down God Almighty Crusher May here having get oh D some broken something under the table it's rattling there yeah oh what a start to 2017 that's the angle that's it that's how aun May would want to be that's how she looks in a wedding photo uh so yeah did you tell you what this face actually reminds me of uh the bit at the end of um Revenge of the Sith where they have an actor Wayne pigram I believe or pyrum don't pronounce his surname um under heavy Prosthetics to look like Peter Cushing and he just sort of walks away from Vader and the emperor at the end it's all fine you only see him from a distance but if you look at closeup photos of him there is a hint of this actually looks almost more like his other character he played scorpus in far escape oh my god well let's sit her down there there we are where's where's your bloody look put your bloody slippers on your feet will get cold and then you'll have to crush more of humanity in order to make up for it well there we are friends I think from a uh design perspective we will never beat just how horrendous this figure is supposed to be it's nice that they did one of an May for collectors cuz you know um it's not something you see very often but my God to do it this ludicrously badly is um yeah frankly Unthinkable on many levels and yet they went and bloody did it didn't they I just notic there's actually a hair net on the back of it oh well done bonus points yeah cuz you know everything else was so great on it oh dear me well I think the next one um which will appear in the future in my terrible action figure series is probably the worst of for money one and I imagine many of you at home will already know what that is but in case you didn't have a kiss from Aunt May and all will be made better I love you Peter
