    It's so weird to see this set because the original was my first Lego Star Wars set. I just wish they had Boga.

    1. No light saber for Obi wan
    2. No boga

      @hehehoho6152 9 лет назад +4

      +Luigi999 its because this scene is after the one you are talking about. It's after Obi-Wan jumped on the bike with Grievous and lost both his boga and his lightsaber :D

    this set is awesome but 2 things it needs boga and good articulated arms for grievious

  • @AngelTempo29
    @AngelTempo29 10 лет назад +37

    It's a good set not gonna lie.
    A few complaints about it though.
    1. No Boga!!! Why LEGO? WHY? The Boga was such an epic creature and if lego incorporated it I would have insta-buyed the set.
    2. Grievous. I mean, everything is dead on accurate, his model, his light sabers, his face even. BUT THE ARMS!!! I mean, they did OK, but why can't lego make a custom foldable piece for his arms. I don't really know how that could fit without being as thick as a 2x4 brick. Still, kinda upset about the arms.
    Other than that, set is great. Might pick it up. And great review Jang! What are your thoughts on this? :)

    • @adambaconburger
      @adambaconburger 9 лет назад +5

      I have this set and I love it, but a updated Boga still would have been nice.

    • @cheezdoodle96
      @cheezdoodle96 9 лет назад +3

      FuzzyTheCat Sorry to nitpick, but Boga is her name, not her species. She is a varactyl. She is also named after a Tunisian soda apparently.

    • @masterofdisguise7112
      @masterofdisguise7112 7 лет назад

      I feel the exact same about THE ARMS!!!! I feel like they totally could have remolded the piece they used for the head skeleton from Ninjago!

  • @Bunbiichuffn
    @Bunbiichuffn 10 лет назад +8

    Ooh, a see-through wheel. Brick just got real.
    I like how the set looks. The wheel looks good and seems to roll alright, and I really like what they did with the legs this time around. With the legs down it almost looks like a little beasty.
    Aw, beasty, wanna play? No, no, Oh GOD NO!, NO!!, AA-OOO-AAH!!
    Anywho, the minifigs look good too. Grievous' upper arms bug me the way they're put together but they do look the part, and I like the extended neck. Also, chromey chromey lightsaber hilts. Me like.
    Old Ben isn't looking too shabby either! Gotta love that hair.
    I wanted the old bike really, really bad, but this one's definitely improved. Perhaps I can make use of something I got on Christmas to get this? We'll see.
    Thanks for the review, as always it was wheely good.

  • @joldsaway3489

    I noticed this one was coming when I was looking for 2005 version for sale and I got really excited about it. New Grievous with non-clonewars, official print - awesome! No sword for Obi-wan, but my old Grievous can share one with him. It's great, even without varactyl, and now you say it's not so expensive like a regular licensed set! I haven't bought SW set since couple years and I hope te get this one soon.

    When the prelim photos of this set first appeared, it received a HUGE amount of criticism for the it's skewed proportions. Having seen this set on video, I can now say I like it MUCH more than I originally had. Not only does it have a fold-out legs (which I assumed were missing at first) but the figures are very nice!

  • @aetchjae-el9505
    @aetchjae-el9505 10 лет назад

    Very good review Jangbricks!
    Only thing about this one in my opinion is the joints where the claws of the 'legs' of vehicle & the ball sockets area will get loose quite fast after a few plays with it- so this should just be a 'display' piece rather than to be played with... cos my 5-year old wants one....

    Awesome Lego Mecha, awesome little clone wars Animated series inspired Grievous minifig. Giving the wheel bike playable legs is the intriguing part.

    • @TsundereSupreme
      @TsundereSupreme 10 лет назад

      Grievous in this set is actually based off of his Episode III appearance, but the coloring is a little more whiter than he actually is in the movie, so I could see how you would think he's based off of his animated form.

  • @FoxtrotBravo101
    @FoxtrotBravo101 9 лет назад

    This is what I love about Jang's reviews, 6 minutes long and covers everything compared to 16 minutes long by Solid Brix Studios and others who will review the set and then talk about something else. Nice one Jang! :)

  • @ShawnathanEX
    @ShawnathanEX 10 лет назад

    I really like this set, definitely an improvement over the last one. I had that first one and back then I used to think that that General Grievous was awesome looking at the time, but this one is just so much better and the bike looks so much like the movie version compared to the last one. If I get any Lego Star Wars this year it'll be this set.

  • @elliotandersen3439
    @elliotandersen3439 9 лет назад

    Also good use of sand blue pieces I'm surprised Jang did not point that out

    The bike is very cool. The fact that it can roll and also stand on four legs is a pretty good design. The General Grievous minifig is very good! But my complaint with this minifig is with it's arms. They are hardly flexible. Wish LEGO could have designed the arms better. But still, it's pretty awesome. Obi-wan is a decent minifig. But my main reason for buying this set would be Grievous!

    Otherwise it's a good set AND because of this set I was able to get a current General Grievous cheap enough.

    I hate to be a nostalgia fanboy, but I dislike the new Grievous mold and I prefer the 2005 version more. It looks a little awkward fighting Grievous with his head so far stretched out. I hope Lego can make a better mold soon, because the '05 one wasn't too fantastic either.

    A few things that could make it better:
    A bogo for obi wan
    If obi wan had a lightsaber
    A magnaguard (for the sake if it)

      It is a re-creation of the scene in the film,obviously it wouldn't include a lightsaber -_-,but would cool if it would 🐵

    I just want Obi Wan to have a lightsaber!! I know in the movie he didn't use in that part of the fight but for playability it would be good! No Boga as well but there is a price per part.
