What makes this X-men 97 Sentinel special? unbox and review

The Marvel Legends X-Men ’97 Sentinel has arrived — and this thing is an absolute unit. Standing at 22 inches tall, this massive Marvel Legends figure is based on the X-Men ’97 animated series on Disney+, which continues the classic 1990s X-Men cartoon.

In this video, I unbox the Sentinel, break down the packaging inspired by the original animated series, and take a close look at the figure’s animated-style sculpt, articulation, and accessories. This includes multiple battle-damaged face plates, chest pieces, articulated hands, and some of the best blast effects Hasbro has ever made.

I also explain why this Sentinel looks different from previous versions — diving into how the design traces back to Jim Lee’s iconic 1990 X-Men comics, which directly influenced both the animated series and this figure. This Sentinel isn’t just big — it’s a direct tribute to one of the most important eras in X-Men history.

If you’re an X-Men fan, Marvel Legends collector, or grew up with the animated series, this is a must-see deep dive.
