  • This is it, the moment we've been waiting for. Bandai has been giving us quality S.H. Figuarts Star Wars figure for years but we've been missing an essential character from A New Hope. Finally, Princess Leia is released! And while it's pretty damn awesome, it falls short in some places. And not just height, wokka.

    Great add to the SHF SW Ep. IV lineup & face sculpt looks pretty much just how Carrie Fisher looked in the movie so no complaints here. Could not have asked for anything much better with the HQ hoodie-up look IMO. Cool that SHF included her blaster from the 1st scene too. Really could use an upgrade for the Jabba's Palace Leia head & wish SHF would produce that look in a fig. Thanks for another HQ review.

    I usually agree with most of what you have to say but this time it's scary...I mean arguably 100% of what you had to say about this SHF & the eternal debate of plastic vs cloth I share the same thoughts. I don't think you can do THIS particular version of Leia look as cool as this does with cloth, but sometimes a great looking cloth cape does wonders for a character (Vader). It's true that the default face is a little bit lifeless, which is why it's cool that the 2nd face is a welcome addition. I think I'm gonna wait for an ESB Leia from SHF but I'm glad they're keeping the quality up there.

    @Metalpug79 5 лет назад +1

    I think the face looks fine, even if the expression is a tad plain. Personally I like it much better than both of the Hasbro faces... but I don’t think the face scan one is bad though...
    I hope we get another version of Leia in the SH Figuarts line sooner, rather than later.

    Hey Robo since the hair buns are removable I wonder if you could get another black series Leia and customize it to make a new ep 4 Leia head with face printing.

    • @TheFwoosh
      @TheFwoosh  5 лет назад +1

      I thought about that, you'd have to resculpt the hair to have a part but it's doable. Oooo, oooo, even better, just get someone to cast the hair buns. Hmmmm.

  • @Brian-mi5kg
    @Brian-mi5kg 5 лет назад +1

    just so you know ( not trying to be like “welllll ackchually” but just so you know lol) there is some blueish grey shading :)
    and a few other things
    -i really don’t like the plastic they use for skin areas that aren’t the face... it is way too translucent and totally doesn’t match the faces. they used to paint the hands for figure like luke and han, which just looked way nicer in my opinion
    -secondly it kind of bothers me how drastically different the skin tones are from figure to figure, i do like that they are different but it could be more subtle
    all that nitpicking aside, i absolutely LOVE these figuarts figures and am so happy to have the whole group together! it’s just a feeling of ahhhh finally ( okay rant over )

    • @TheFwoosh

    @DD-pi1ks 5 лет назад +4

    Great review as always. For me the skin tone is a little too off and not lifelike enough. Traffic cone aside I think the silhouette of this figure is perfect. Looks just like Leia to me. For the likeness I didn’t think it looked like Carrie until I saw your still photos. I think that might have more to do with you being an excellent photographer than with the figure itself though.

    • @TheFwoosh
      @TheFwoosh  5 лет назад

      I took about 100 more photos than that and really, some angles are good, some don't look like her at all. It's close enough for me to be happy but I'll be down to replace it if I get a chance.

    Fan freakin tastic dude! When you compared Figuarts Leia to 40th Anniv Leia it was absolutely a done deal, and there simply is no comparison! I used to think 40th Anniv Leia was de shite, now I think she looks like bantha poodoo because that's how freaking good Figuarts is!!! One is a toy, one is a hi tech tribute worthy of the adopted Senator from Alderaan! Figuarts is amazing and still blows Hasbro out of hyperspace, tho the Gap is closing - but despite the higher price, Figuarts still is the only game in this Galaxy for figures that knock your jock off. Hasbro can yank your boxers down and is doing it more often than the failed wedgies that used to be all too common, but for full on, full frontal impress-the-heck-out-of-everyone birthday suited boinginess, it's Figuarts for the Win!!!

    Looks like an ok figure. I've never seen a Figuarts figure in hand but from watching your reviews and others I don't like the way they do the joints. You get the sculpted clothing and then there's this bulbous smooth piece of plastic in the middle of the joint, it's very off putting for mine.

    • @TheFwoosh
      @TheFwoosh  5 лет назад

      I agree, but I'll admit I've become a little blind to that aspect. My mind sees articulation and it glosses over for me. We'd either see that or the cuts in a double joint. One day we will have that plastic skin....
