I imagine if they can add new audio files - could it be the case that new music could be added by users - Fallout 3 themes/Fallout 4 themes or music wouldn't be that hard to include
I was just thinking about this too, I feel like it wouldn’t be hard to do considering there will be updates post release. The only hindrance would be storage, adding an entire radio stations worth of music might be a bit much storage wise.
The USB-C actually being used for data and interfacing is huge. I can not wait to see where this thing is in a few years with mods and custom firmware. I hope they gave us plenty of storage for custom playlists to make more radio stations with.
I don’t think its a deal breaker, it still looks pretty good, and if you want to you can make it look nicer yourself, which I might end up doing some time down the road
i pre ordered it, and yeesh, i hope the weathering on mine doesn't look like this... looks like a cheap spirit Halloween prop paintjob. if it does, I'm going to strip the paint off and do it myself, disappointing for something so expensive
Hearing about the update feature makes me wonder. I had the thought that it would be pretty cool to put pip boy holotape games on it, like the one Lucy is seen playing in the first episode. You could very easily add some sort of arkanoid clone with the controls available. Perhaps ZETA INVADERS, Atomic Command, RED MENACE and so on could get simple recreations on it.
You got yours already I ordered on the same day of you. So good. Wow they did so much work with this it looks brilliant just amazing great job Chris and the wand company.👍
I'm so glad this includes a nice long USB-C cable. Too many high end products these days either don't bother including one or come with a useless tiny one. I'm also so happy to hear about the updates since I was actually just wondering about what the strategy for handling season two stuff would be. I really hope a more in depth map system (like one that allows you to freely scroll and scale the map) comes in a future update. The PC integration is also such a cool feature and one I would've never guessed in a million years. My only real critique is that I wish the Geiger counter were synced to the digital one, but that's such a small and minor thing. I'm also excited by how hackable this thing seems, since I'm sure someone will inevitably get Doom running on it lmao (speaking of which, is the lack of any Atomic Command animations perhaps hinting at something playable coming in a future update? Iirc all the Pip-Boy games were Flash games) Anyway, this is the most excited I've ever been for something to come in the mail lmao
I would love at least animations of Atomic Command or Nuka Tapper. Heck throw in Red Menace and you’ve got me sold. I think playable games might be a bit of a stretch but it would be really cool if they could get that working.
I had been debating getting it for a while. This video sold me and I bought it last night! Super excited, I thought it was just a clock at first but all of the current features and the ever evolving updates and new features have me really pumped! Thanks for making this video, it was very informative!
I'm part of the batch expecting in February. Thank you for sharing your Pip-Boy with such detail! I missed out on the others, but it seems that I bought into the best experience to date - a dimensionally accurate prop with future functionality updates expected (that part was news to me!) I was also pleased to see that the flashlight behaves as it does in FO3 and up, rather than the understandable departure that the show took. I'm looking forward to using the adapter plug in a manner similar to its original intention, by connecting to a "terminal" for updates! I wonder if the external terminal function would work for navigating a smart TV, like a universal remote.
Been waiting for these to ship out! I’m so freaking hyped, I never managed to get previous pip boys because I wasn’t in a good place financially so I’m excited to finally get this one. Been a fan since I was like 12, my first fallout was 3. Mine should be shipping in January but these kinds of videos hype me up. These are so cool!
29:56 so for the location tracked here I guess it’s the pip boys serial number and then after the animation for the location as seen in the show changes here 39:35 how cool great attention to detail 😮🤯
I had to order a second one for my 76 year old, stoner, disabled, retired Vietnam Veteran father...who has played all the Elder Scrolls and Fallout since 3 on his xbox and has THOUSANDS of hour in Fallout76 which he plays every day. We lived in Las Vegas for awhile and we were there when Fallout Vegas came out and used to go to the Pioneer Saloon monthly to go eat. Way before they started the event there! We will have to take him to the event next year...
If your ordered it in march it should be shiping on the days around november 27th i got my source from a reddit page when a fellow customer contacted the warehouse on when in his or hers particular one would ship
I ordered this 2 days too late. Any ordr before april 17th will be shipped in November (this month). I ordered on april 19th because I did not see that this was for sale sooner. I will get it in February. IM SO MAD ABOUT THAT xD
Can you imagine your full time job being just designing boxes? Package design? Product engineer? Do you need an engineering background for that? Some degree involving design and geometry, it sound kind of exciting now that I think about it.
graphic design would be the way to go if you wanted to go down the route of package design. It's actually pretty cool and there is not a lot of math required except for basic measurements and dimensions.
Oh yeah the possibilities are endless, I ordered this right after seeing the Fallout show the same day it came out on amazon LOL and today got an email it was shipped with the tracking number!!!
Don’t know where else to post about this but, I just bought the Pip-Boy 2 days ago and it has already shipped. I thought I was getting it in February like everybody else who bought it late. Anyways just wanted to celebrate a little.
I guess I should have rephrased it as, I got an email that said it is ready to ship, not that it has shipped yet. But that still means it will ship soon. I have a tracking number, and the label has been created but the item has not shipped yet. I was mostly just excited that it is coming this month rather than February like I originally thought.
Very Cool!😎 I ordered mine the same day you posted that initial video announcing that Bethesda had started the pre-orders! I’m excited to see yours and waiting on mine!
Really really hoping I'm mistaken when I think that the only use for the scroll wheel on top basically is to activate animations...that and the top flashlight button...why can't it be like fallout 4? I want to operate it causally like the do in the game, while wearing it. The left wheel/button means we'll be constantly reaching over the pipboy. It might as well be the f3/NV pipboy at this rate. Like, the majority of user input should be done from the right side of the device, and the far left button should be for less used/practical features of the device. Right? Here's to hoping an update will add certain accessibility options to do that or something. :/
I’ve been checking every time something the size of a mail currier goes by for the last 3 weeks to see if mine arrived. Unfortunately the postal workers here in Ontario went on strike just a few days ago so mine might get delayed. I have no issues with them striking if that’s what they need to do, they timing of it just sucks for me.
My wife is going to kill me... and then again in a few months when my tricorder arrives. Ah well... I'll worry about that then. When my die-cast three-foot TOMY Enterprise arrives 10/2025, then I'll REALLY be in trouble.
The weathering is extremely disappointing. So much so, I just cancelled my preorder. For me it's all about the aesthetic, and unfortunately , the heavy-handed weathering just ruins it for me. The actual display and graphics and impressive. Nice job on that part!
Im in full support of this item and compared to other replicas its cheap especially with all given all the functions. But you have to admit they went a little overboard with that black paint.. the ones you had hands on earlier looked more way cleaner.
Don’t forget wastlanders time to order a cheap rechargeable Bluetooth to fm transmitter to be able to play any wastland playlist you want I just grabbed one for like 15 bucks great for cosplay or just be rad
really cool that it is actual metal, but the weathering looks a bit ... hastedly done. Contrast between the weathered parts and the non weathered ones is pretty black and white. The one on Bethesda' store looks so much better that I'd almost call it false advertising. Pretty absurd for 235 euro but oh well, i've got better things to spend my money on eitherway.
@@YourGeekFix Then the real prop has bad weathering, not sure what to say. The one on gear.bethesda looks much better. It looks like someone actually just used a black paint brush on it, it doesnt look realistically used.
$199.00 USD not to bad, the tech behind, heart rate/ blood pressure is pretty cheap and compact, would have been nice to have something like that preinstalled. does it have a mic? would be nice to track sleeping habits. all that stuff are in smart watches already. I guess the power cord was supposed to zip out, but its better this way, cables can go bad super fast. I got my hopes up I wanna hear about real upgrades and not just new sound efx. Thanks for the video amazing work and produciton.
@@YourGeekFix your 100% right technically in the game I don't think ever show blood pressure, was looking for analogs for the real life "hit points n' such" a combination of real world blood pressure, O2 Levels and Breathing in such a small form factor are possible. thats why I mentioned smart watches .. like if your poisoned in the real world how do they tell your messed up, I bet blood pressure changes,. all those dianostic tools are hiding behind a pip boy picture and body part percentages.
If you go back and look at the original stock images that were used when it was first announced, you can see its a tighter and cleaner pain lt app, guess that's one of the corners that needed to be cut for mass production, oh well guess it provides a DYI aspect in terms of how you want your finish 😂🤷🏾♂️
This may sound crazy but I think I ordered mine when pre orders opened but I can’t find a confirmation email anywhere. So I’m just hoping I did what I thought and am waiting with bated breath.
@@ronan2792 yeah I ordered through Bethesda store, I haven’t tried the app yet but customer support has been less than helpful. Gonna also try reaching out to Shopify help as well since they handle the transaction 🤷♂️ Definitely gonna try the app too though, didn’t realize it might be different
@ronan2792 I just did some googling, if your package hasn’t been shipped yet it seems like the best option is to arrange “mail forwarding.” I’m in Canada so I have to go through Canada Post, I assume in the states it’s USPS you arrange it through
currently im trying to make my own pip boy from scratch out of cardboard because any of the official ones are wayyy to expensive for me and i dont know what to use for the screen or the cuff, if anyone including you had any tips that would be great
Placed my order late April from the Gear Store and from that same day to now it's just said "this shipment is on it's way" under tracking. Is that just normal wording, or should I be concerned something is wrong with my preorder?
Mine should be coming this month! The vault boy bobble head that I preordered was scheduled to arrive this month and is coming today, so hopefully that means the pip boy should be coming soon too!!!! I ordered it the day you first covered it, so it’s been one crazy journey to get here 🥲 we’re almost there!

AMAZING prop. It can do a lot for the price. My only true complaint is the finish. It looks rough. Would honestly look better just plain silver.
Have to agree with the other comments here, weathering leaves a lot to be desired.
I don’t think its a deal breaker, it still looks pretty good, and if you want to you can make it look nicer yourself, which I might end up doing some time down the road
I disagree completely. I don't think they are shiny and new on the show. Personal preference, I suppose.
@@Ty-er5ok It don't think they should look brand new, the weathering just looks hastily done.

Agree, not a fan either. The black is too strong, the soft brown rusty color would look better

Would be cool but they might run into some copyright issues with the music. Would love to have Mr. New Vegas on my pip boy tho

@@pip00 did you go through Bethesda? If so download the app and link your order you might be able to change your shipping address.
@@ronan2792 yeah I ordered through Bethesda store, I haven’t tried the app yet but customer support has been less than helpful. Gonna also try reaching out to Shopify help as well since they handle the transaction 🤷♂️
Definitely gonna try the app too though, didn’t realize it might be different
@ronan2792 I just did some googling, if your package hasn’t been shipped yet it seems like the best option is to arrange “mail forwarding.” I’m in Canada so I have to go through Canada Post, I assume in the states it’s USPS you arrange it through
currently im trying to make my own pip boy from scratch out of cardboard because any of the official ones are wayyy to expensive for me and i dont know what to use for the screen or the cuff, if anyone including you had any tips that would be great
@Angered_Shoe every project adds up. Pi zero, wires battery, buttons, switches, pla, paint. Before you know it, same price.
@@YourGeekFix thank you
so excited😁
@@PtolemyPreston awesome
Placed my order late April from the Gear Store and from that same day to now it's just said "this shipment is on it's way" under tracking. Is that just normal wording, or should I be concerned something is wrong with my preorder?
i will watch this until mine gets here
What socks is it? Looks like you can’t use it if it’s on your arm because you need to get the one dial near your elbow
I do wonder what the other features would be
Is it possible to put your own mp3 files on this?
@@atouchoflightning448 updates
Anybody know the ship date for orders placed before 4/18?
36:20 can you use it to play fallout 1?
That's such a good idea! I'm gonna be doing that when mine shows up!
@@Music_monke technically
looks cool cant wait for mine
Thanks for watching!
It will arrive soon enough
wait so does the map actaully work?
Ugh mine's not coming till Feb 2025 cause I ordered later :(
@@Padfoot333 sorry
Wait, that means you can beat fallout 4 while only using a pipboy
Mine should be coming this month! The vault boy bobble head that I preordered was scheduled to arrive this month and is coming today, so hopefully that means the pip boy should be coming soon too!!!! I ordered it the day you first covered it, so it’s been one crazy journey to get here 🥲 we’re almost there!
