POGO PG283, PG288: Classic Loki and JL 2017 Cyborg Minifigs Review

From this bigger set.


Loki on the left and Cyborg on the right.
Loki's design is actually from Engineerio so credits go to them!


Let's start with Classic Loki. On the left is SY Avengers 2012 Loki and on the right is POGO Classic Loki. At first glance, you know that the yellow is different. I think POGO's decision to use the normal yellow on Loki is good to match his whole costume, even though it seems to bright and cartoonish.


Without his helmet. Would've loved an evil grin face or something similar. For the front, printing wise, I've got no issues. The yellow doesn't seem as solid, but I think it's fine. The legs don't go all the way though around though sadly.


These minifigs with no side leg printing just look naked to me..


Nothing on the back. The cape covers it up so I guess it's fine, but it would've been nice if they went the distance.


No alternate face.


The helmet had a minor mold issue. Much better though, in terms of quality control, versus POGO's Thor Ragnarok Loki.


Now for Cyborg.


Smaller baseplate = POGO
Bigger baseplate = XINH

Their stud/ammo colors are also different, but it's no big issue at least for me.


You can see the differences in the helmet's mold almost immediately. I prefer XINH's, which do you?
(LEFT=POGO, RIGHT=XINH)


POGO's arm seems more accurate than XINH's though. See below for reference.

Back view. POGO still on the left.


POGO's face has some weird scratch marks, shame on POGO quality control on this, but other than that, everything else was alright with the minifig!


Alternate face. Note: XINH has been improving their faces yay!

I also reviewed everyone else in the set so just search for them through their codes!

NOTE: POGO minifigs now don't come with extra hands.

TL;DR - Get the official one for the best one of course, but if you can't afford to get it, then getting both and mixing them together will give you a more accurate fig.

Got them from AngeloMarcus, thankfully the store sells both POGO and XINH ones even if they're the same character which allows me to compare them in reviews, etc.
