I'm not even that big of an Old Republic junkie but I still know enough about Revan to want this absolute beauty of a figure. This guy's gonna be to the Black Series what Deadpool is to the Marvel Legends line.
BBTS had him for preorder but he's already sold out. I was lucky enough to get mine in. You can find him on ebay still, but he's kinda pricey. I originally had one ordered for 52 bucks, but once the BBTS preorders went up I hopped on it. 30 bucks saved. ;)
Out of all the Cantina aliens not made into 6" scale who would you like? I have a huge wish to see Dannik Jerriko make it into this line. Anyone else have a suggestion?
Woah the detail is great. Hasbro didn't take the cheap way out since Revan rarely show his back nor legs, and is accurate to the original game. Kudos to that!
I can recommend everyone that likes Star Wars to try out SWTOR and come to The Tomb of Freedon Nadd server, we need good people there. Bioware has done a terrific job with the class stories and they have a very nice story going on right now.This figure, great review man i'm gonna pick it up when i have the chance. Scale wise not sure that Vader was made too big maybe. Can't really say as i don't have that Vader.
I play SWTOR, I hate to break it to you but the other servers make jokes about how dead ToFN is. New players would be better off joining The Harbinger (US West), Jedi Covenant (US East), or The Red Eclipse (EU).
Andrew Warman New players would be great for the server. The biggest problem is not that Bioware messed up it's that people left the server instead of staying there and trying to get people in. Bioware can also stimulate it by letting people transfer to the server free from the heavy populated servers and by locking the other servers for new players, so they go to The Tomb of Freedon Nadd instead.
this figure looks amazing! Shame he wont go with my 3 75 inch Bastilla Shan. I hope they come out with a new 3 75 inch for him. I know theres an old one already but its super rare and expensive.
thanks, man :-) happy hunting, i'm sure you'll chance upon one. usually, in my experience, the more difficult figures to find just pop up when you're not looking for them :-)
Marvel legends has really stepped up their game in terms of head sculpt, paint, and plastic. So now heres hoping for that same quality boost for black series.
sometimes it's not so much the scalpers that are the problem. sometimes it's our local toy importer that distribute the cases to the various toy stores for consignment. usually they allocate only one case per store. in this wave or in this case, that means one figure per store?! i mean, do they expect that there'd be only one Star Wars Black Series collector/fan going to each of the retail stores out here. i mean come on... right?
the sad thing in my area is this specific wave didn't turn up in major retailers, i only seen a few at game stop, like only Obi wan an an at-at. But all the major retailers are filled with Jyn Ersos and Andors. I went to toys r us and saw like 20 jyns, went to walmart and saw so many Jyns there too, and at target. But you are probably right, maybe they did only get one case and it probably went fast and all that was left were Jyns and Andors from the previous wave. I just don't understand why Hasbro re-released Jyn twice, and why she was in 3 different waves if she is not popular.
I'm going to wait to see if my comic shop gets the entire case in stock b/c I know he will be just as Impossible to find just like Captain Phasma was but here's hoping. Awesome review my super friend I'm happy for you. PJ
thanks PJ :-) yeah, i think that's the best way to go. each figure in the case is a gem. so it will be easy to pick up an entire case. i just hope your hobby shop won't charge you an arm and a leg :-)
Me and my bro were doing some Christmas shopping and we decided to go to tj macks and he was right there so we got it and he gave it to me for Christmas
I was able to buy Obi-Wan the other day and I cannot find Revan anywhere I was able to find them on Amazon and then 2 seconds later there were no more and now he's hitting on Amazon somewhere if anyone knows where to get them on Amazon please let me know I want to Revan figure so bad let me know and you're lucky
chefatron Where? Thanks Btw, not drastic at all. This will be the 2nd time this character has been a "fan choice", and the first time back in what, 2006 (?) didn't go so well as mostly nobody could find it. Not to mention this figure has been in development for forever. Hasbro knows the demand.
I've learned that Hasbro really does have their heads up their asses when it comes to marketing and distribution. how many years they been makin toys? get it together, Hasbro! nice review btw
i know right? especially in Asia it's so difficult to get the store exclusives and if we do get them they're double or triple the price versus in the US. thanks bro :-)
i really hope they start releasing more sith and jedi or force users in general specifically sith tho id love to see Darth malak Darth Bane Count Dooku Darth Nihilus Darth Malgus Darth Krayt Darth Plaguis Chancellor Palpatine (pre scarring) Starkiller Savage Oppress Mace Windu Rahm Kota Cade Skywalker Plo Koon Kit Fisto Qui Gon Jin Shaak ti
i think it depends on your area. if your stores get a lot of stocks from Hasbro and if there are a lot or only a few collectors or scalpers in your area.
I rather not. I don't like taking someone I loved and change them into something else. Revan belongs with KOTOR and without KOTOR or the Legends universe , it's not Revan.
Disney canon has existed for 2 and half years. EU existed for around 25 years. Seems to be a bit of a premature judgement. Lucas probably had has much respect as Disney had with old canon. He considered essentially fanfiction.
Standard version? really? he along with the, recently released unmasked one are peg warmers now. the Celebration Europe / SDCC Exclusive one is 'kind of' sought after, but even so it's not - it's just that expensive no one wants to pay the price tag.
Now that Oldman with a CGI-Fetish & his Frog-Neck Disowned Star Wars, Disney can Re-canonized Revan in Rebels(just like Thrawn), he even made a Cameo in the Obi-Wan & Anakin Comic by Marvel.
Ditto to moon knight maybe they should do the lord of the sith from old republic like 6 inch darth malgus nihilus bane scion ahh the possibilities are endless for this toyline
online then, perhaps. i usually find the the difficult ones when i'm not looking for them. so stay positive man, the force will be with you on your hunts :-)
i dont trust any of the so called collector sites i have had to many bad deals. My plan since I don't have a release date is to stalk the stores until I have one to open for display and one to collect. hopefully I'll beat those online selling bastards.
i think bbts already has the wave up for pre-order. i suggest you get the entire case. all the figures are great. even the leia figure despite not having the facial likeness of carrie fisher
how can i be the only star wars collector that wants a 6 inch Jedi Temple Guard more than anything.
Austin Me too
Austin same here bro....HASBRO GET MAKIN'
Man... i want this figure so bad. A lot of people in the U.S want their hands on this one. Hope i can get my hands on one. Enjoy the figure!
Awesome review, i've always liked the poses you have them in before going into the review. Gives me ideas on how to pose some of my figures
I'm not even that big of an Old Republic junkie but I still know enough about Revan to want this absolute beauty of a figure. This guy's gonna be to the Black Series what Deadpool is to the Marvel Legends line.
that is very nice I am still saving up for it to add to my collection
now this is such a surprising figure to see being made. this is what makes a star wars lover and action figures collector even happier
definitely, bro :-)
Fantastic review franz can't wait to grab this guy! thumbs up
how were you able to find it? I've check places and internet over a year to find Darth Revan!
Went ahead and ordered one, this guy is definitely the best looking Black figure we've got in a long time. That and it's F-ING REVAN!!!! SICK!!!!!
where!?
BBTS had him for preorder but he's already sold out. I was lucky enough to get mine in. You can find him on ebay still, but he's kinda pricey. I originally had one ordered for 52 bucks, but once the BBTS preorders went up I hopped on it. 30 bucks saved. ;)
The twist in the game is one of the best twists in a Video Game EVER
where did you get it and when did he come out?
how did you get this so early? and when does it come out?
how do you get these figures so early?
probably a different country since they release earlier
+Wookie Productions when does the wave with Qui-Gon Jinn come out and Jun after this wave ?
They're doing a Jaina Solo figure next year.
I'm really curious how she will look, so excited!
awesome. i hope they follow it up with a Jacen Solo. glad the expanded universe characters are being green-lit by disney
Alex Star How do you know this shit
Out of all the Cantina aliens not made into 6" scale who would you like? I have a huge wish to see Dannik Jerriko make it into this line. Anyone else have a suggestion?
walrus man ? nostalgia i guess. one of the first aliens i got as a kid back in the 80s
awesome
now i'd like to see a Darth Nihilus and Valkorion figure
let's hope so
Woah the detail is great. Hasbro didn't take the cheap way out since Revan rarely show his back nor legs, and is accurate to the original game. Kudos to that!
definitely man. we really got spoiled by hasbro on this one :-)
RELEASE DATE !!! PLEASE LETS HOPE THE MAKE A DARTH BANE
December
day 1 buy :) :)
moonknight1985 or darth nhilus
otto darth nhilus would be great but i would like them to make mandalore
moonknight1985 which one? The ultimate from the comics or the preserver from kotor 2
I can recommend everyone that likes Star Wars to try out SWTOR and come to The Tomb of Freedon Nadd server, we need good people there. Bioware has done a terrific job with the class stories and they have a very nice story going on right now.This figure, great review man i'm gonna pick it up when i have the chance.

Another flawless review Chef, may be we'll get a 6" Sith lords down the road from KOTOR
Darth Malak, Darth Nihilus, or Darth Sion would be amazing! Personally I'd want Darth Malak the most.
thanks, bro :-) definitely. let's hope for the best
this figure looks amazing! Shame he wont go with my 3 75 inch Bastilla Shan. I hope they come out with a new 3 75 inch for him. I know theres an old one already but its super rare and expensive.
awesome, man. i'm really hoping for a bastilla shan 6-inch figure. maybe a malak as well?
Great review! This figure looks awesome, I really want it but it's probably gonna be close to impossible to find.
thanks, man :-)
happy hunting, i'm sure you'll chance upon one. usually, in my experience, the more difficult figures to find just pop up when you're not looking for them :-)
Marvel legends has really stepped up their game in terms of head sculpt, paint, and plastic. So now heres hoping for that same quality boost for black series.
definitely, man
the bloody scalpers in my area will make it impossible for me to get this one, expect to see these pop up on ebay for 90 bucks a pop
truth.....
same thing happens over here in Manila
sometimes it's not so much the scalpers that are the problem. sometimes it's our local toy importer that distribute the cases to the various toy stores for consignment. usually they allocate only one case per store. in this wave or in this case, that means one figure per store?! i mean, do they expect that there'd be only one Star Wars Black Series collector/fan going to each of the retail stores out here. i mean come on... right?

I just don't understand why Hasbro re-released Jyn twice, and why she was in 3 different waves if she is not popular.
sorry too hear that man. i hope you get re-stocks soon
I'm going to wait to see if my comic shop gets the entire case in stock b/c I know he will be just as Impossible to find just like Captain Phasma was but here's hoping. Awesome review my super friend I'm happy for you. PJ
thanks PJ :-)
yeah, i think that's the best way to go. each figure in the case is a gem. so it will be easy to pick up an entire case. i just hope your hobby shop won't charge you an arm and a leg :-)
My Comic shop owner is cool with me so he charges about $25 each which average $140 a case. That I can do. lol
Thanks for the great vids Chefatron!
I wish they would use soft goods more often. I am glad hasbro did this for revan.
This will be friggin' impossible to find in New Mexico.
Si Si Senior
Me and my bro were doing some Christmas shopping and we decided to go to tj macks and he was right there so we got it and he gave it to me for Christmas
I was able to buy Obi-Wan the other day and I cannot find Revan anywhere I was able to find them on Amazon and then 2 seconds later there were no more and now he's hitting on Amazon somewhere if anyone knows where to get them on Amazon please let me know I want to Revan figure so bad let me know and you're lucky
got notified it was on sale today from walmart.ca soon as i checked in it was sold out already :O hope i can get my hands on this one.
best of luck, man. and happy hunting :-)
I will stop collecting all Hasbro product if i cannot get this guy for retail. Been waiting a long ass time for this. They better do entire cases.
wow, bit drastic there. perhaps just pre-order this one online ?
chefatron Where? Thanks
Btw, not drastic at all. This will be the 2nd time this character has been a "fan choice", and the first time back in what, 2006 (?) didn't go so well as mostly nobody could find it.
Not to mention this figure has been in development for forever. Hasbro knows the demand.
yeah, hasbro loves screwing the collectors. they pack cases with figures we don't want and they limit the figures that are highly sought after...
I've learned that Hasbro really does have their heads up their asses when it comes to marketing and distribution. how many years they been makin toys? get it together, Hasbro! nice review btw
i know right? especially in Asia it's so difficult to get the store exclusives and if we do get them they're double or triple the price versus in the US. thanks bro :-)
This guy is the best. I Also want a Darth Malak And Nihilus
i really hope they start releasing more sith and jedi or force users in general specifically sith tho
id love to see
Darth malak
Darth Bane
Count Dooku
Darth Nihilus
Darth Malgus
Darth Krayt
Darth Plaguis
Chancellor Palpatine (pre scarring)
Starkiller
Savage Oppress
Mace Windu
Rahm Kota
Cade Skywalker
Plo Koon
Kit Fisto
Qui Gon Jin
Shaak ti
considering figuarts has a windu of the same scale the ones i want most are definitely qui gon and dooku
let's hope so :-)
Great review ! awesome figure !
Are these hard to find?
i think it depends on your area. if your stores get a lot of stocks from Hasbro and if there are a lot or only a few collectors or scalpers in your area.
There is only one walmart one target no toys r us but it takes forever for target to get something in stock. I am just not sure about that.
No it's it not Disney canon. Revan won the 2015 fan choice.
i hope they make him canon they would be stupid not too with all the people that like him
I rather not. I don't like taking someone I loved and change them into something else. Revan belongs with KOTOR and without KOTOR or the Legends universe , it's not Revan.
And Disney Canon to me, is garbage.
Legends>>>>>>>Disney Cnaon
Disney canon has existed for 2 and half years. EU existed for around 25 years. Seems to be a bit of a premature judgement.
Lucas probably had has much respect as Disney had with old canon. He considered essentially fanfiction.
got it! finally! at retail for 19.99 on Amazon. timed it right. lol Maganda sha. never opening it though
awesome! congrats, bro :-)
Hey I heard you said that your from Philippines from your last videos I'm from there to.
awesome, bro :-)
I can believe these are easy to find in Mexico not cheap but easy to find
Darth Revan the Dark Lord of the Sith totally rocks!!!!!!!! He will be the most sought after figure since Captain Phasma.
Captain Phasma, like with ALL the 6" Black Series Force Awakens Figures (minus Hux and Asty) are really not sought after figures...
Kylo Ren is kind of a sought after figure.
Standard version? really? he along with the, recently released unmasked one are peg warmers now.
the Celebration Europe / SDCC Exclusive one is 'kind of' sought after, but even so it's not - it's just that expensive no one wants to pay the price tag.
definitely bro. Sabine is a close second. troopers and leia are the last ones to get picked up.
I'm not positive but I think Revan is canon because he was in an episode of clone wars
Walter Rice he was written and animated.. but the scene never made it into the episode. They wanted him Canon, but I guess technically he's not?
Now that Oldman with a CGI-Fetish & his Frog-Neck Disowned Star Wars, Disney can Re-canonized Revan in Rebels(just like Thrawn), he even made a Cameo in the Obi-Wan & Anakin Comic by Marvel.
ur thinking of Darth Bane's ghost voiced by Mark Hamill in the last episode?
Revan would suck though in Rebels and Disney Canon.
Ditto to moon knight maybe they should do the lord of the sith from old republic like 6 inch darth malgus nihilus bane scion ahh the possibilities are endless for this toyline
You can play KOTOR for free with Amazon Underground mobile app. It's a great game, so one should check it out if you have never played it.
I need him for my collection
happy hunting, man
What happened to your Darth Vader figure lol
This will be impossible to get in Canada.
Never say never.
yup, the force will be with you :-)
online then, perhaps. i usually find the the difficult ones when i'm not looking for them. so stay positive man, the force will be with you on your hunts :-)
lol a real kotor fan deserves that figure smh
That Vader is horrible, what happenee to his helmet?
Whole review and no mention of elbows, single jointed, ugh...saved you a question.
Darth Vader's Towers over. Revan he looks I think too big
this has to be the best one
definitely!
Disney is not making their own canon. The Expanded Universe was never canon and Lucasfilm actually had different tiers and rules about what canon was.
given that Disney already owns most of Lucasfilm. they can literally do whatever they want with it now...
NOW WE NEED HK-47
Damn, I want this
Our Lord and savior.
how the fuckkkk did you get this so early
eh may as well. First!
someone's a sore loser...
Luke Skywaker I'm gay? Well I guess that makes 2 of us
Wow, looks like a short figure
I must have him.
happy hunting, bro :-)
GIVE ME NOW
everyone is gona buy them all from the store then sell it online for double fuck me.
well, a lot of online stores already have him on pre-order at regular retail price. so that may be an option to get this guy.
+chefatron Right now the only stores that have him online are charging an arm and a leg. There's no preorders yet from any of the main retailers.
i dont trust any of the so called collector sites i have had to many bad deals. My plan since I don't have a release date is to stalk the stores until I have one to open for display and one to collect. hopefully I'll beat those online selling bastards.
i think bbts already has the wave up for pre-order. i suggest you get the entire case. all the figures are great. even the leia figure despite not having the facial likeness of carrie fisher
It's a shame this character's not canon.
*Disney Canon*
oh? i thought Disney's starting to be lenient with some expanded universe characters...
whos #32
Ep.IV Obi Wan Kenobi (regular retail version)
ofc this figure is better than the older one but it's still a piece of crap.
