When I first pre-ordered this, I was worried about the face accuracy and the cloak, but they turned out to be the best things about it. Best 1/12 scale Luke Skywalker in my opinion. Glad I held off on all the previous Bandai and Hasbro versions.
This guy looks so good! I hope this helps rejuvenates SHF’s Star Wars line. I’ve yet to get mine but that lightsaber “swooshing” effect looks like a game changer to me! 😍 Going forward I hope every Star Wars SHF that has a lightsaber comes with that accessory. I would also love it if they did some kind of accessory pack with that accessory for all previous lightsabers but I feel that’s asking way too much 🤷🏻♂️🤣
I wish the butterfly joints could come forward more so that he could hold with the lightsaber with both arms extended--but other than that it looks amazing in hand. I love posing Luke with the hood covering his eyes.
@D Amazing - whet are your 3 favorite SHF Star Wars figures? I love the ROTS ObiWan and Anakin. Then the ANH Stormtrooper as far as what I own. I'm also counting sculpt and articulation.
I can’t believe I nearly passed on this! Probably one of my favourite Figuarts…maybe even one of my favourite Star Wars figures! The face looks way better than it did in the original promo shots!
I’ve never understood why Luke chose the all black Jedi look during return of the Jedi and afterwards… Then chose more of a traditional Jedi garb in the final saga. The all black robes make me want a sith version
I got this figure and love it! Except his right leg popped off and when I put it back on it’s super loose and won’t stay on 😭😭😭 anyone have advice to fix it? Because the figure look so good and I don’t it to be a waste
I got mine a week or so ago, and as a fellow toy photographer I loved how they got him to look. The headsculpt is amazing the body has great articulation love the saber. My only gripe is the cloak although its easy to manipulate the wire inside, I'm finding it very difficult to get a decent saber swing pose without the cloak making it look like s**t. As the wire is in the hood and along the bottom hem of the cloak, if you want it to look like he's slashing with the saber while in thr cloak like in the show the fabric always gets too close to the saber to the point if it was the show he'd be on fire. Also the hood doesn't go down well enough it bunches up around his neck so he looks like he has a cape and big ass black scarf. I'm really hoping a customiser makes a better one that allows for better articulation while wearing it and has a better hood.
Man I'm glad I pre ordered this guy, also if you want to impove your cinematography I recommend looking for some videos about Roger Deakins, he's an amazing cinematographer you have probably seen more than once
Love the videos. Just got the figure too, really cool, though the hood is unruly. --- Depending on your brand/model of DSLR, you may be able to set 'focus priority' settings to help with the focusing. For example you could tell the camera to prioritize auto-focus on the center of the frame, even if your hands on the edges are closer to the lens. That being said... you mentioned using a manual-focus lens, so that may limit what you can do. "Cine" or cinema lenses are best for videography, though a bit more expensive, but they have silent auto-focusing features. I think your exposure might be a little hot, too, and dropping exposure compensation down one notch is one way to fix (and checking about the camera's histogram). I'm a photo guy, too, but have video exp too. Happy to help if I can. Images looks nice and sharp though!
Uff those photos at the end were so gooood. Man this figure looks amazing, but I just don't have the budget to get it. Hopefully hasbro's version looks at least similar to this.
They all have the head issue the hole isn't deep enough for somereason. But not a deal breaker as long as it's snug it's stays on fine. I have one myself for a about a week now. And watch alot of reviews and it happen a consistent issue. But like I said not a problem still love the figure alot. Best lule ever in my opinion And hood works. You just have to play with it. Love your reviews. Been waiting to see yours on this guy as always you rock it. Thansk D
U are a big inspiration to me having all the figures I ever wanted as a wee lad MY BROTHER! Would u aloe me to make u a intro music 🎶 🎵 🤔? It would be my HONOR... LOVE UR CONTENT 💗
Since they didn’t do the two face plates and two hair styles I wish they would’ve done away with the seam on his head. It’s horrible and I’m very displeased with it. Other than that I do like the figure.
What kind of madman perfectionist is this?!?!? D's already got the best vids for figures and he's saying he needs to step his videography game up? 😳 I can see you've got a vision beyond my comprehension.
Luke Skywalker is the best Star Wars character in my opinion

The more I look at him posed, the more I love it. Couldn't agree more
@@Myfirespraygunship You have it?
@@cookedit yep, came in from AmiAmi last week
@@Myfirespraygunship 🙂
Best 1/12 *ROTJ* Luke Skywalker
Best 1/12 Luke such an improvement on the other Jedi Luke. For the paint smudge on the hand use acetone no risk of damage as the hand isn’t painted

Dope review; wired cloaks/capes should be wired at the sides, IMO. Either way-Looks great!

Your videos are fantastic. That twist up you did with his cape was some dark magic
Awesome! 🙏 Can’t wait for this guy to show up!!
You can use a focus ring lever for the lens for faster precise manual focusing. Try cinevate focus ring

I have this fig, I hate the cloting. We need a updated return of the jedi Luke
Aw schucks, I was really hoping for a Luke and Kuuga team up picture. Awesome review, keep up the great work.
I’m not a big fan of the cloak. It was really hard for me to get it into a pose that I liked.

Hey D, does your camera has focus tracking? That could help
Just ordered mine!
I know a place where they have him, and at a good deal.
@Damazing if you still have your Geralt figure could u see if the cloak fits him.

Love you calm voice I can listen to you for hours idk if that weird
Thank you nice review.
Great review friend. Plz add more Amazing Yamaguchi figures reviews ;-)
Hello my friend. Where do you buy these 1/12 scale backdrops ?
Nice review, the figure looks really good
Love the content! Great Review D!
Golden week kept my Luke and Mafex EG Cap sitting in Japan but are now on the way! Looks 🔥
You're in for a treat. Both are excellent.
No question, the best 1:12 Luke figure at the moment.
Uff those photos at the end were so gooood. Man this figure looks amazing, but I just don't have the budget to get it. Hopefully hasbro's version looks at least similar to this.
Great video! Did I miss where you bought this?

And hood works. You just have to play with it. Love your reviews. Been waiting to see yours on this guy as always you rock it. Thansk D
I don’t know how did you guys get this one,I could hardly find this in China,really want it😂.I think this is the best one of whole shf Lukes.
Great video sir! Just subbed to ya, can't wait to watch some more of your videos!
If you don't mind me asking where do you buy your figures
DSLR filming for reviews is rough but I think it's worth it
where to buy?
I know the video can be a pain, but damn it looked sharp.
Where di you get it? I can't seems to find it online
He looks amazing but it is odd how it's not really accurate to the show
U are a big inspiration to me having all the figures I ever wanted as a wee lad MY BROTHER!
Would u aloe me to make u a intro music 🎶 🎵 🤔? It would be my HONOR...
LOVE UR CONTENT 💗
10:43, Vader perpetrates some child abuse on his boy. ‘Cause apparently chopping his hand off wasn’t enough.
This Luke skywalker looks good 👍
New Luke seems a tad bit too tall for the rest of the line. Face looks great though.
Since they didn’t do the two face plates and two hair styles I wish they would’ve done away with the seam on his head. It’s horrible and I’m very displeased with it. Other than that I do like the figure.
[10:40] Luke was like, "WELP!!! Bout that time I hit that OLD DUSTY TRAIL 👣"...
VADER : Yeah Son... You don't want none of this here SMOKE Boy....
You're losing detail in his face because your lights are too sourcy/hot. You need some diffusion or even feathering. Good luck!
always want these high priced figures but i never can save u money to get them lol
O I forgot to mention I’m subscribed to you 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Awesome looking figure but why is it so pale looking? This figure of Luke makes him look like he hasn't been tanning in a long time lol.
Good job 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Kicking myself for not preordering this guy. He looks amazing.
Pretty sure nin nin game still has stock!
Wow. I just found and purchased one from that site. Pumped up.
If you're still looking, BBTS has him for po
What kind of madman perfectionist is this?!?!? D's already got the best vids for figures and he's saying he needs to step his videography game up? 😳
I can see you've got a vision beyond my comprehension.
First
Luke looks terrible, not a good figure
Of all Luke figures, this one has the best Mark Hamill likeness.
@@elastronomer8462 ROTJ era… yea lol. Nothing else
