Robo! Please never apologize for Star Wars content! It’s what got me to watch you every week in the first place. Also I have this figure and it’s phenomenal!!
By all means, keep the Bandai SHF Star Wars reviews coming, Robo! I'm just now getting into them. I bought all three Praetorian Guard figures. Now, I'm saving for a Rey.
@@tombowling8646 That's fine if you like the Sequel characters I won't tell you not to but like I said about Rey earlier. Don't overpay for the Sequel figuarts. They didn't do well and are very cheap on the aftermarket running you anywhere between $30-$50 depending on which character.
I love the Figuarts line, just wish they made more of them. This was a great review of an excellent figure, keep the star wars train going! Oh, and you were spot on regarding the robe, the bottom wire is a royal pain. I bought two. One cloaked (Mandalorian) and one uncloaked (ROTJ).
The BEST (non-custom) Luke head sculpt. I ran to the other room (cats and loud bang) and when I got back I thought it was a custom head and was waiting for the name so I could look up the page
I really, REALLY want to love this, but I can't get beyond that head sculpt/crazy eyes/crossed-eyed look. Thanks for the review, saved me some money! And Robo, all Star Wars reviews ALL the time is fine by me. Thanks for all of your content and positive energy!
Figuarts are a great looking line, too bad It's a bit out of my price range. Really hoping the pipeline Luke reveal for Black Series will have an updated body though.
took the words out of my mouth. it's a pretty awesome ROTJ Luke, which is kinda why i preordered it but also wishing it was a Mando Luke with Prequel-ish robes. can't wait for mine to arrive!
I was initially stoked as all get out for this one until I saw that it was just RotJ Luke, but it overall does look pretty damn good. I'd very much like a more proper Mandalorian S2 style look, and I absolutely demand a Luke with Grogu on his back look, as well as the later look he had when he was giving Grogu the choice between the shirt and the saber....honestly, just give me all the Lukes, I want them all!
Got mine last week. That hood is really annoying, I agree. I like the figure, though. Very pose-able. Can't wait to get those Dark Troopers and pose them all together. The legs also feel a little loose, but the figure is so light it doesn't affect posing.
Great review as always! Indeed this is not the Mandalorian Luke. In Mando he wears black crossed robes underneath the outer tunic. And it seems most companies are committing the same mistake, including Sideshow and Iron Studios. For some reason, they're putting out detailed Mando Luke statues with the ROTJ shirt under the tunic, despite several reference pictures from Mando contradicting this choice...
I just wanted a post-ROtJ Luke and this works for me! The inaccuracies don't bother me a bit, but it's unfortunate they didn't make it more accurate for y'all wanting a proper Mando Luke, though. Though I did want to give his right hand a skin-colored wrist joint, but looks like I'd have to buy another one to swap that out... Think I'll just have to learn how to live with it haha
Woohoo! I can finally open mine because Papi Robo approves LOL! I'm cool with it not being like the Mando show. This is only my 2nd Luke figure ever (First is SHF ROTJ Luke) and I'm so happy it's not reuse. I'm sure we will see Season 2 Mando Luke, BoBF Luke, Season 3 Mando Luke eventually from all companies.Oh man what about a Mafex Luke??? that would be killer!
Since the robe is a separate piece presumably you could take it off and maybe mudhorncustoms can make a black prequel jedi overlay? That would be cool!!
I’m slightly relieved that I missed this guy since Hasbro is going to be releasing their own version soon, I don’t even mind if it is also more accurate to RotJ since this look is my favorite Luke. Plus I missed the Walmart exclusive Luke, like this figure they both seem to have a kind of hunch back look in certain poses so hopefully the next BS version doesn’t have that issue, but I know I can’t quit bandai.
Great review! At this point, I fully expect to have to buy secondary soft goods for SHF, but this sculpt and face print are incredible. I think this is a better sculpt ( it paint, but sculpt) than any Hot Toy Luke so far.
I agree. It's incredible how many people were upset over the face when the initial promo shots were revealed. I've made the cloak work but it takes too much time and finesse. A fully wired cape would have taken this guy over the top.
Thank you for the great review, as always 👏 I was excited to hear your thoughts on this one. I think my biggest gripe would be that I think the head is slightly too large, something about the size seems off to me
I saw this and thought maybe I finally will get a SHF. Only to see it's not available anywhere for a reasonable amount. And Robo more the merrier. Always! You can upload you reviewing a brick and we will still gladly watch it.
My only nitpick with this figure (other than the inaccurate outfit) is the skin tone. He looks kind of jaundiced. It's especially noticeable in the lineup with the other SHF Luke figures.
robo..nice review..I have this and love it..if you are wondering this is more in tune with his Mandalorian appearance which is close to ROTJ even the shiny boots, watch the episode again except the missing sash over the belt..They changed his outfit to a GI style in the BOBF episode..so I think there will be a BOBF version in the near future with grogu and a backpack
Great review. Were your human colored hands spotted black in some places? It's like a smudge was put on by mistake. I think I also noticed it in yours.
It would surely seem for the price of these SHF imports they would be more accurate to the stated media source. That said, the head sculpt is probably the best Mark Hamill likeness yet. Maybe a little cross-eyed from dead straight on, but nothing like the Boba Fett abomination. 🤣
Ooof, I almost wish I didn't watch this review (no offense) because now the inaccuracies will bug me--but in the end it is a great figure so I don't actually mind. If they make a more accurate Book of Boba Fett Luke down the line that would be great, but for now I'm satisfied with this figure's place in my collection.
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
Full circle…the first video I watched from your channel was about a Jedi Luke figure from a niche (at least to Americans) Japanese line called SH Figuarts….I was trying to find an “affordable” Jedi Luke, because at the time, the original Black Series Luke was $$$ (the one with the “doe” eyes, lol). BOY have times changed…years later, and I’m now re-addicted to action figure collecting, except now, because I buy SO MUCH Figuarts and Mafex, it’s WAY more expensive…THANKS ROBO, lol. BTW, because of you I think I have almost 100 Figuarts and Mafex figures combined…and I LOVE every single one of them…
I think he looks great, BUT...he looks slightly cross-eyed. All it takes is for it to be a little off and it's so noticeable. But as you stated, it's still one of the better looking Lukes and I may have to get one. Do I dare try to fix the eye? (We'll see!)
That head sculpt is incredible, the thumbnail surprised me because I don’t even think it looked that good in the promotional images! Btw, I’ve been meaning to ask, are you going to review the Shf Movie Deadpool? I’ve been anxiously waiting for my seller to get it so I can pick it up and also anxiously waiting to see your review (since I don’t really see other reviewers aside from you) the excitement to see it in some way has been killing me haha.
My only complaint is availability. It’s nigh impossible to get along with Mando and Boba Fett. I’d like to get a few Star Wars figures but all the ones I’d want cannot be bought normally.
@@zaboknowsbest13 Yeah, I mean some of these hit overnight so I missed them, then hit randomly over the next few weeks so because I was working and trying to feed myself I missed them lol. Now they go for almost double the price on ebay. I moved all my collecting away from Star Wars now but wanted to dip back in on certain characters but I cannot even do that and Hasbro figures just don't compare to the S.H. Figuarts ones but I am not paying over $100 for these so I guess its time to just now completely ignore Star Wars which is crazy for me as I've been a lifelong fan, but there is so much other great stuff out there and its easier to ignore the franchises that just make it hard to buy from.
Great review! You just earned a new subscriber! I just bought this figure and I hate the cloak. Anybody know a company which custom designs Jedi capes?
Hi there Robo, i sent you a package last week to the PO BOX you use, right now DHL is not delivering it because "they can't deliver to po boxes" even thought they did accept to send it in the first place :/.. The package is in a deposit from them now for the next 30 days they say, please check the info. I don't want that it gets lost.
Robo! Please never apologize for Star Wars content! It’s what got me to watch you every week in the first place. Also I have this figure and it’s phenomenal!!
I come here for Star Wars. The rest is gravy.
yeah tf I only follow him for SW stuff
If people were sick of it they wouldn’t watch. Do you my guy. It’s definitely worked so far. I’m sure people will keep watching.
This Luke is incredible, That scan is fantastic!
By all means, keep the Bandai SHF Star Wars reviews coming, Robo! I'm just now getting into them. I bought all three Praetorian Guard figures. Now, I'm saving for a Rey.
badass! hopefully the collection turns out great!
Don't pay more than $40 for Rey she's dirt cheap if you know where to look
Don’t waste your money on D-listers. Save it for the worthwhile ones, unless you have enough money to buy them all.
@@georgeleorgebeorge2354, I just thought guards were cool and would look good on my shelf.

Trust me robo, nobody is sick of your star wars reviews 😂 keep em coming
Great looking likeness.
As always, the best reviews online for 6" figures!
The best Luke Skywalker SH Figuarts ever done!!!
Best 1/12 Luke ever. Better than not only all SH Figuarts but Black Series as well.
@@cookedit ooooh yeah, thats right!
Even though I don’t collect anymore, I still love watching all your reviews!
I am not sad about Star Wars reviews , keep them coming.
Also I love this figure but I am waiting for the black series one to see which I would rather
Just got this for myself, really pleased with it. Going to put a 3rd party cloak on him as well.fully wired is the way to go. Thanks for sharing.
I love the Figuarts line, just wish they made more of them. This was a great review of an excellent figure, keep the star wars train going! Oh, and you were spot on regarding the robe, the bottom wire is a royal pain.
I bought two. One cloaked (Mandalorian) and one uncloaked (ROTJ).
C'mom robo i love your Star Wars reviews, that will never be a bad thing
Keep the Star Wars content/reviews coming!
The BEST (non-custom) Luke head sculpt. I ran to the other room (cats and loud bang) and when I got back I thought it was a custom head and was waiting for the name so I could look up the page
Oh! Yay! Another Star Wars review from Robo!
Seriously, I'm all for it. Gimme Star Wars every day😎
I actually thought that for real "Yay another Star Wars review" 🙄🤨. Lol, Robo read my mind. Robo does know.
I come to you for Star Wars reviews! Please keep them coming!
0:16 Robo. Bruh. Your Star Wars reviews are my 🍞 🧈
I really, REALLY want to love this, but I can't get beyond that head sculpt/crazy eyes/crossed-eyed look. Thanks for the review, saved me some money! And Robo, all Star Wars reviews ALL the time is fine by me. Thanks for all of your content and positive energy!
I was on the fence for this one. Now I’m placing the order on Amazon.
Figuarts are a great looking line, too bad It's a bit out of my price range. Really hoping the pipeline Luke reveal for Black Series will have an updated body though.
THIS is the Luke Skywalker figure I've been waiting for 🔥
Well hotdog I’m in! Can I bring my beer?😂😂😂😂😂
Now im intrigued by your custom plans
took the words out of my mouth. it's a pretty awesome ROTJ Luke, which is kinda why i preordered it but also wishing it was a Mando Luke with Prequel-ish robes. can't wait for mine to arrive!
I'm not that much into Star Wars but I love your content so I watch the reviews even if I'm not planning on buying the figures

a mafex luke would be so sick!
What's the best site to get these SF Figurearts figures from?
Great review!
I never saw when this even went for pre order … looks great .
Seriously though. YAY ANOTHER STAR WARS REVIEW!
Best 1/12 scale Luke of any brand out right now. Just a great lookin figure. That cloak went directly into the trash after opening it tho.
It's that bad?
@@discoditto I think so, yes. This is pretty typical for Figuarts. They never do cloth cloaks, robes and capes well.
My favorite Robo reviews -- SHF Star Wars!
Heck Yeah! Another Fwoosh Star Wars Review
What a awesome video dude 👏 👌 🙌 😎.
Since the robe is a separate piece presumably you could take it off and maybe mudhorncustoms can make a black prequel jedi overlay? That would be cool!!
Haha, someone hasn't made it to the comparisons yet....
@@TheFwoosh Sorry not the robe, I mean the tunic thing. That could be changed?
Oh yeah, definitely that, and that's what I meant about customizing it, changing that out.
Who’s complaining about Star Wars figures? That’s why I’m here!
That head is amazing
I’m slightly relieved that I missed this guy since Hasbro is going to be releasing their own version soon, I don’t even mind if it is also more accurate to RotJ since this look is my favorite Luke. Plus I missed the Walmart exclusive Luke, like this figure they both seem to have a kind of hunch back look in certain poses so hopefully the next BS version doesn’t have that issue, but I know I can’t quit bandai.
May is Star Wars month along with Birthday Month. Lol. Great fig. Great review!
I love to see a woosh effect for the lightsaber blade 👀
Great review! At this point, I fully expect to have to buy secondary soft goods for SHF, but this sculpt and face print are incredible. I think this is a better sculpt ( it paint, but sculpt) than any Hot Toy Luke so far.

I love STAR WARS so more of it is perfect!!! Also today just picked up the black series 6 in retro yoda and Force Ghost Obi-Wan
The final battle Thanos also has those kind of wrist joints that pop out.
WHAT!? who's complaining? Let me at em! Keep the Star Wars coming!
Thank you for the great review, as always 👏 I was excited to hear your thoughts on this one. I think my biggest gripe would be that I think the head is slightly too large, something about the size seems off to me

Another amazing video
Seriously hoping figuarts does a dark trooper….or heck, mafex!
robo..nice review..I have this and love it..if you are wondering this is more in tune with his Mandalorian appearance which is close to ROTJ even the shiny boots, watch the episode again except the missing sash over the belt..They changed his outfit to a GI style in the BOBF episode..so I think there will be a BOBF version in the near future with grogu and a backpack
I was kinda on the fence about this guy because I saw some inhand photos that weren’t that great looking. But your review makes him look fantastic.
I'm going to incorporate that number into a lotto ticket.
I hope Bandai does more of these. I’m looking forward to seeing a mandolorian stormtrooper and a mando boba fett. Also book of boba fett luke
Great review Robo. Tempted now.

Respect from Montreal !
Face looks amazing but I don't feel bad for canceling my order. First release is good enough for my needs for now.
The hand joint system might be designed for a robot hand option later on
I’ll stick with my original figuarts Luke and after market cloak. Great review as always!
pls make a review on 20th iron man and hulk
I like it. now I need like 30 dark troopers
Ooof, I almost wish I didn't watch this review (no offense) because now the inaccuracies will bug me--but in the end it is a great figure so I don't actually mind.

It sucks that you have to use a custom cloak, but the rest of the figure looks pretty damn good.

Great review as always. Where is your alternate cloak from?
damn im torn now...i wanna grab a ROTJ luke but do i get the first SHF one or this and buy a brown cloak......ugh lol
Where did you get that epic x-wing shirt?
Great review! You just earned a new subscriber!
I just bought this figure and I hate the cloak. Anybody know a company which custom designs Jedi capes?
This is very very very late...but I'm thinking this might be a repurposed Luke Skywalker from Battlefront 2. They had the exact same design, I think.
This is easily the best luke in 1/12 form, I think they could have implemented another head tho, maybe one wit the eyes closed to have him meditating
Eyes are sooo crossed
Maybe his eyes look odd because of how the eyelids sit on each side, remembering that nobody's face is symmetrical anyway!
its beautiful
I’d want this Luke if I didn’t have the original with a custom Mandalorian Luke head on it.
yo Papa Fwoosh, where should I go for a 3rd party cloak? I want to be prepared while I wait for my BB Pre Order to release
needs an @mythosboba cloak for sure
Does the tunic come off? How’s it look without it? It appeared to have part of the tunic sculpted to the shoulder joint?
Star Wars review again? Sweet! Looking forward to new play day!
Would this new head fit on the ROTJ body?

Is it slightly crosseyed
Don’t worry, Robo, we all know.
This is the May.
I only watch your star wars reviews
