There’s a reason why you might’ve gotten the non black brow. It’s probably because by the time the mistake was fixed, they still had the non brows and just bunched them with the rest. Bit of a disappointment, I have to agree with you. I think the body mold is good, but they always mess up something. My regular Andor trooper is clean from any paint smudges somehow. Love the reviews man! Keep it up!
I ended up completely repainting the visors and filling in the black brow, grey on the back, brown on the soles of the boots, and adding weathering, and honestly this mold looks fantastic if Hasbro actually decided to paint them proper!
I bought this pack when it initially came out and mine came with the black brow. To be honest, I sort of prefer them without the brow just because I love the clone wars look. But honestly I’m fine either way, just sucks that you don’t know which one your gonna end up with until you open it
One plus of having the browless set is that I don't think that variant of the set suffers from the shrunken helmet issue that the painted brow sets have. I'm guessing that might've been a side effect of them rushing that fix to production.
Wanted to get my hands on a brow less 212th by itself because of it being like a mini black series one. I finally got an Andor clone and I got lucky with the quality control this time.
i think im one of the shortest comments here but id be pretty happy to get 212 troops bc its hard to get any clones. The review really helps me decide! Very awsome video.
Well for mine, I have the brows but that’s not the problem. Two of the plain helmets are too small and one of the helmets is missing the vents on the sides of the helmet and the brow line only goes around half way. So in my opinion, you are lucky and I would just paint the lines on.
I purchased 6 of these sets (not all at once of course - I’m crazy but not that crazy). None of them had the black brow… NOT ONE! I’m very disappointed. The boxes even had different date stamps too!
i got 2 sets of these, both variants lol. waxer in my brow set has a very tiny helmet and i don’t know why, my browless waxer just has terrible visor paint so hooray
Hasbro’s best interest would be in a new Cody, considering they could get at least 4 potential uses out of it 1) Clone Wars card Cody 2) New ROTS card Cody 3) Bad Batch S2 Imperial Cody 4) Captain Vaughn
For that next one wish it'd either be all 332nd or all 501st. I mean at 60 might as well just be single carded no difference. Also I checked non of the 212th packs are advertised with the black brow. But the 501st 332nd and white 4 pack does. So weird this one doesn't.
Well , I've just checked on the hasbro site , and I should have paid more attention to it the first time, before clicking on "add to cart!!" like a crazy clone trooper and 212th fanatic, cause if you look attentively , all the photos with the figures in different poses they use have this exact helmet you have and so do I... no black trim and no silver part... So yeah ...the plain white Andor trooper and the upcoming 4 pack phase two and the AotC phase one ( and i've trippled checked for that one particulary) are represented with the black trim around the helmet and the silver part on the back (as it should be btw) on photos Fingers crossed the AotC one won't have any quality issues and stuff... Personaly , I will try to fix thoses helmets with a realy fin paintbrush when i got time( next holidays perhaps), because they can't stay that way. This new mold is interesting , hope they will find a way to have smaller removable helmets , and or non removable helmets version too. Way more accurate in my opinion, just like the almost perfect antena mold. Btw if someone as the will to army build 212th antena mold for affordable prices... (Or any other famous battalions/legions) Let's say that the dark side is the patheway to many abilities, some consider to be unnatural. "cough" Ebay , "cough" China almost 99.5% accurate copies... ! Got 20 plain white phase two , 5 212th and 2 shadow Utapau troopers. All of them are well , almost perfect, and realy hard to tell who is who next to their official hasbro brethren. The joints are a little bit stiffer that's true, and one of the plain white as 2 left foots ! (he as been assigned to top gunner sit in one of my Tx-130s Saber tanks, so none can see he's ...differences ;) , and the vendor was cool , I signaled him the problem with photos and he offered me a refund for that "defective" unit.)
I really hate the mixing of movie and animated styles. It’s a really little thing, and I appreciate both for what they are separately, but the artistic inconsistency is really annoying to me.
Great review I got mine and has the black band and your right way over priced and you have every right to complain about the paint job because of the price we all paid for those figures they should be perfect!!! Shame on hasbro it's always something with the figures and
Well my guy I think the non-brow versions were from an earlier batch of 212th’s when it first released and it has been confirmed to be corrected across all future prints of this 4 pack, with only a few handful’s from that initial batch that might still sneak into an unsuspecting order but that should now only be the rare exception rather than the norm. You’ll also be glad to know with the upcoming 4 pack with the 2 White boi’s, the 501st & the 332nd troopers they’ve updated the helmet molds so now it actually looks like how the Phase 2 helmets are supposed to look! Still not sure why they went with 2 White Clones when we already got the Andor version out in the wild🫠 I think they should’ve got with 1 White boi, 2 501st Blue boi’s & 1 332nd Orange Helmeted Boi:3 keep up the good work trooper!🫡🫡🫡
While I do like that clones are getting heads now... I feel like maybe they shouldn't for the sake of the helmet since it looks so awful... I can't get over how bad it looks, it's made me really not even want to pick them up
Well they actually did update the helmet molds for the upcoming white, 501st & 332nd Clone 4 pack and the product description didn’t say anything about removable helmets:/ but I guess we’ll see once it’s out in the world and what not:3 so happy they fixed the weird looking helmets on this new mold just so much better and definitely fits in with all the older style Clone’s we’ve gotten in the past.
@@smolbean3273 I mean... It's more than likely to have removable helmets, but if they really did update it like you said then cool... But I'm still not sure if I'll pick em up
Oof i inow the feeling of paying so much but not being happy when you get the figure in hand 😤😤😤 But ngl I feel like the box kinda gave it away that it didnt come with the black band around the helmet ngl if you look at the box art it looks like the white band was pannel lined or something like that. Not defending Hasbro cause this is over priced as hell but yeah big oof man, sorry you got disappointed man

They look good i think. Ive been watching this channel for a while. Keep up the good work
Mine came with black brow and imo it makes them look soooooo much better

I hope they release Boil and more regular 212th individually with the paint done right.

I'm also in the small helmet camp. Can't remove them from the troopers now or else they have major paint rub showing on their head sculpts.
Imagine if they made a single carded Vintage Collection Clone Trooper Boil
mine have the black bands on the helmets, so im confused
I bought 3 of these damned 4 packs in hopes of getting at least one of them with the black brow... I now have 12 brow-less clones. :/
I purchased 6 of these sets (not all at once of course - I’m crazy but not that crazy). None of them had the black brow… NOT ONE! I’m very disappointed. The boxes even had different date stamps too!

They should offer to either send some painted ones or some kind of discount! 🤨

I pre Ordered this multi pack, mine came without the black lines too. So weird that they still have stock without the black lines.
I literally bought this 4 pack like 2 days ago and now I'm worried mine won't have the black line on the helmet
the 1st sets had the band, then they stopped doing it when i got my second set
For that next one wish it'd either be all 332nd or all 501st. I mean at 60 might as well just be single carded no difference.
Also I checked non of the 212th packs are advertised with the black brow. But the 501st 332nd and white 4 pack does. So weird this one doesn't.
Would've made more sense if they included an Airborne Trooper instead of Waxer.
I really like it without the black band
the bottom of the feet are also supposed to be gray not black
Still waiting for Hasbro to mark this down! 😂
"IF YOU WANTED THAT YOU COULD HAVE PAINTED IT YOURSELF!"-Gundam Ghost
When there is a variant with and without paint, its disappointing to get the one without, even though I can paint it myself if I'm that bothered.
@@Jcc2224 the power rangers team offered replacement helmets when one was missing paint
They did! And I will forever commend them for that!
300th like! Not that I guess you care, but the 'no brow' will probably be the rarer one in the future.
Where I can buy this ?
Hasbro, should make clones without removable helmets. Just like they did with the antenna mold.
Well , I've just checked on the hasbro site , and I should have paid more attention to it the first time, before clicking on "add to cart!!" like a crazy clone trooper and 212th fanatic, cause if you look attentively , all the photos with the figures in different poses they use have this exact helmet you have and so do I... no black trim and no silver part...

Personaly , I will try to fix thoses helmets with a realy fin paintbrush when i got time( next holidays perhaps), because they can't stay that way.

Just snagged it today got it for 39 on sale hasbro pulse
Lemmie know if you get the black brow or no brow like mine. If it's black brow I may consider trying for a second!
Just got it today and I had the black brow
You just can’t win with Hasbro’s quality nowadays. I got the black brow version but two of the helmets were the smaller ones
I really hate the mixing of movie and animated styles. It’s a really little thing, and I appreciate both for what they are separately, but the artistic inconsistency is really annoying to me.

Yeah its cringe. Its crazy to think the antenna mold is still the best clone sculpt to this day. Hasbro has gone cheap and lazy now.
The price is terrible
I don’t get why ppl keep buying these old mold releases….
This...isn't an old mold, though? It's literally the new one they released for the Andor clones.
New helmet is awful
The helmet is just horrible period. Wide, fat & huge, tiny thin visor.
