Another beautifully shot and narrated review Johnathan. A word of warning for all potential buyers of this figure. Mine arrived straight out of the box with pleather issues, the strapping on the legs had totally come away making it look like they were snapped, also the velcro had totally come away from the belt, which is a glue issue but the money we all pay for these things this should not of been an issue in the first instance but i did get a replacement body from Sideshow. I do feel that the pants were cut too short, they ride up far too high when you have the figure in a jumping up and or flying pose and i do think that the head sculpt is a little soft but when you place the pilot head accessory over the top it makes the head sculpt look a lot better which makes me think that maybe the hair is off? After saying all of this once you have the figure fully loaded up and posed up he looks fantastic. Thank you for sharing my friend.
Whoa, that’s awful! I’m glad you were able to get a replacement. I agree though, we shouldn’t be dealing with so many issues with the money we pay for our figures. Recently I’ve had to replace 2 whole figures (Maul & Moff Gideon) and request for smaller parts due to them being poorly glued. It’s nuts! I agree about the pants as well. I do find that they flood quite a bit, especially if you’re posing him with one leg higher than the other. Thanks for watching as always, my friend! 😄
I love your reviews, you can tell that you put in A lot of time and TLC into them, like naming all the small accessories and their functions....I had no idea lol. Awesome job and keep them coming my friend.
Thank you, PrimoXX! It’s rough when figures come with a lot of accessories on the production side, but as a collector it’s awesome and I want them all! 😄 I had to go back and do my research for those pieces because I originally wasn’t sure. Doing homework so you all don’t have to! If you’re curious, the source info is from the Wookiepedia. Thanks so much for watching! We appreciate the love! 🙏
You are very right about the Jango portrait here. IMO, the face is a tad too wide. I call myself a heretic here, I prefer the Hasbro 12 inch Deluxe Jango portrait. That one looks, IMO, closer to the vibe that Morrison's face gave at that time. As the base material Hasbro gave us there was really not bad, I just did some modding on it - new body, hands separated from the gauntlets, blackwash to the belts and holsters. I also widened the greaves with heat permanently so that they sit much better. Also glued the leg armour permanently to his flightsuit and closed the torso armour (he was designed by Hasbro to be changed into his "leisure look", but this did not interest me). Anything else, I left as it was (okay, gave the head some shine to his eyes). I really do enjoy this figure. However, I left most of the stuff Hasbro added in the box. Particularly both of those tiny hooks are so prone to getting lost (I searched for half an hour for one of them on last Christmas eve). I mostly use the more compact jetpack (silver-blue), because I think it goes better with his overall look.
Thanks, JediBear! You’ll love this one honestly. If it matters any, there is a body suit on the figure, but nothing hindering the range of motion anywhere. It’s buffing out his entire mid section. Can’t wait to hear what you think! As always, thanks for watching! 😄
Good review, but why change the angle on the height comparison section? The previous ones you did were further away and gave a better idea of what the characters looked like next to each other.
Thanks, we appreciate you for watching! It’s almost 50/50 between the last unboxings. We’re trying to see what works by playing with angles since that section and our detail sections are being fast forwarded through the most.
Thank you, thank you! We appreciate the love! We have a lot more on the way. Just needed a quick break after pumping out so many back to back, haha! Stay tuned! 😄
Thank you! That’s a video we’ve been putting off for a long time now. Not for any particular reason, just never got around to it. We’ll definitely get one out soon. It isn’t hard at all! 😄
I would have figured this being the original Fett would be sold out by now but I guess not? I don’t know why he’s pretty cool the only downside was the pants they are to short & you can’t pull off flight poses cuz it exposes the ankles pegs, whoever was in charge of that dropped the ball.

Lmao, I showed my wife during the edit to see what she thought and she was shocked, haha! Such a triumphant build up for… that. 😭

Awesome to see Jango getting spotlight!

Loved the editing! Cool figure!
Good quality review as always. I cannot WAIT to have this one in the collection.

This review is very well made! Appreciate the time you put into. Keep ‘em coming :D

Stay tuned! 😄
Another great unboxing!
I am very interested in tips you may have on maintaining pleather on all of my figures
Thank you! That’s a video we’ve been putting off for a long time now. Not for any particular reason, just never got around to it.
We’ll definitely get one out soon. It isn’t hard at all! 😄
Very nicely done review im no expert but it looks beautiful. I have this figure too best few hundred dollars i ever spent 😂
