XINH 799-801: Black Panther Movie Minifigs Comparison with POGO PG390, PG393 Review

Previewed the XINH here
POGO ones came from this bigger set.

XINH 799 - Black Panther
XINH 800 - Killmonger
XINH 801 - Black Panther
PG390 - Killmonger
PG390 - Black Panther

POGO's accessories are similar to PG371's accessories. Although these ones also have the side claws accessories that are different from the usual Wolverine claws.

Before anything, I'll summarize it already: 
In terms of quality, XINH wins, but in terms of accessories, POGO wins. In terms of design, I think it'll depend on you!

Which one do you prefer? 
I think it's a bit obvious which one is XINH's. The brighter one on the right is XINH's and mine only came with one claw accessory. So again, in terms of quality XINH wins in both plastic and print, but some design elements might be preferred on POGO! Also, again, the accessories on POGO might be enough for you to buy them!

Same deal with the back. Some might not even like the bright yellow on XINH's.

It's basically the same deal with these two. Although the head of POGO's is much better in my opinion because the details are finer.

Same with the back.

Now for a solo review of this guy because POGO doesn't have him yet. He's a much simpler design except for the face. I think the eyes are also not the same of brown that'll match the skin of T'Challa? But maybe there's a visor or something, I guess I'll have to wait until the movie!

The back is simple and looks great.

I think the 3 (+ 2) minifigs are great, but I think they could've been more. I love Black Panther in the MCU because the details on him are amazing. Marvel Studios made him a very intricately designed character which is far from the classic just-black-with-pointy-ears suit. Unfortunately this minifig design doesn't make the most out of that. This one is a bit lazy, I mean no side prints or leg prints and even the hat piece doesn't have printing unlike Civil War Black Panther's. So the one to blame here is TLG really, but hey, maybe they don't have the energy since their designs always get stolen.. Haha. 
In the end though, TLG will still have the best quality and even the design probably. In terms of these two though, quality goes to XINH, accessories go to POGO, best depends on you!

Or just get both! Treat yourself, it's Christmas anyway!

If you're from the Philippines, then you can see for yourself which you prefer more in AngeloMarcus Greenhills since they have them on display anyway!
