According to wookiepedia, the B2 is 6’4” and Christopher Lee is 6’5” ran into the same confusion with the black series release seeming too small but the droid is just smaller than we all thought
Yep but they are still depicted as being bigger if I remember correctly
@@JustinsCollection Not in the movies.
@@yezzerexyziruis210 tbh a series going on as long as star wars has, makes sense there'd be some lore inconsistencies
Jesus Christ, Christopher Lee is 6’5”??
I love how their heads make them looking so pissed off while the battle droids look very chill.
Legit
B1 Battle droids little seemingly unfeeling eyes always creeped me out. Badass design tho
I have a core memory of one od these guys bitch slapping a B1 outta the way and just start blasting. That solidified them as one of my favorite droids
Lol
I also remember that, and I also like how some of them have their "wrist" blasters stored. I remember some of them having them pointed up, but I recall seeing one in the background having it over the "chest"
I have the same memory and i cant find the scene anywhere i look.
@@scottkh4470It happens during the Arena battle on Geonosis towards the end I think.
The B1 gets shot and is stunned while a B2 walks up next to him, beats him to the side and starts blasting on full auto.
Fun fact, the Battle Droids are all created in the image of the Genosians. That's why they have the head shape and snoot and three fingers on their hands.
Oh true! I see that now!
The Clone Wars 2008 show turned these droids into visual TANKS and I think that's a source for a lot of confusion regarding their size. They're massive and overwhelming in live-action, but not nearly as big as a lot of fans (including myself) remember them being.
Could be!
If I recall correctly, the B2s were designed by the Techno Union Army while the B1s were done by the geonosians. That explains the design choices very clearly. That said, my canon may be out of date at this point so who knows.
Ah nice!
didn’t the techno union use those modified b-1s with wings on skako minor in season 7 of cw? Not sure if they designed them tho
I wish they gave him a toy inspired swap out heavy blaster arm to pay homage to the the first AOTC action figure and TCW heavy super battle droid.
Incredible review as always Justin!!
Agreed
Love the pose at the end with R2 :D
Thank you!
”you stupid little astro droid”
I can't believe anakin hasn't come out yet. Aotc anakin was like my childhood hero.
Agreed!
@@palletlover8519 yes... yes he did. After the tribe brutally murdered his mother.
Funny the demographics on that. I’m a Han fan. As a 7 year old I wanted to be him. Still kinda do. LOLOL
I’m so glad they made this figure! I’m a little disappointed that they didn’t include a little diecast. I’m definitely going to get this! Great video!!
I was hoping for some too
16:06 extend it and fold the arm back. It should be able to bend its forearm a bit closer to the bicep with the extension.
No it doesn't help it bend any further
When you reviewed padme and i saw it in the comparison i was so confused i looked on your page and wondered where the droid review was😂
Haha I snuck him in!
Ordered 3 of these guys. Can’t wait. One thing, I wish they had done better with the battle damage. It would have been so much better if they had left a bit of the forearm all broken and with some wires and such. Missed opportunity. Maybe I’ll do that to one of mine.
Fair!
I’d love to see Hot Toys make a General Grievous figure, never got my hands on the Side shows Grievous (and heard from reviewers) it had a little bit of quality issues (due to the limbs being so small).
So I’m hoping to see Hot Toys take on the challenge.
Me too!
I remember when I finally got a fully articulated Hasbro super battle droid, was awesome after having the elbows and knees being solid pieces ones
This looks so cool, but yeah no blast effects? Dang
I'd have loved effects honestly
Not exactly sure if anyone wants those footprint bases. The entire point of figures is to display, yet the base restricts the pose you can do.
Agreed!
Watch those wrist rockets!
Love it
This figure looks amazing, and probably even better in-hand. I do think it’s very criminal to have not included blast effects, swap out guns, and maybe a smidge of die cast for that price point, but otherwise this guy seems to be a hit!
Legit what were they thinking!
Yeah its interesting how our perception of the Super Battle Droid's height doesn't match the official info on it. Everything I can find online is saying its either 6'3" or 6'4" and Christopher Lee was officially 6'5" so I guess HT has the scale correct even though it doesn't align with our perception.
True!
Theres been so many different visual depictions of B2s its understandable being skeptical of the size because in ep3 they are taller than dooku.
Yeah they are
Since they explored the B1 and Super battle droid. I really hope they do a magna guard and commando droid
I hope so too!
Little fun fact: there are rechargeable button cells! Idk if they sell them in Australia, but regardless they are fairly niche
Nice!
The first in 200 Hot Toys figures I actually was dissapointed with when I got it in hand. Feels so cheap, although the AA battery helps, and the paint app is incredible as always, but this should have been a two pack for a bit more money and that would have made it a great release.
Fair!
Turn the droids sideways and you'll see more similarities! Legs, joints... Looks great! Gonna hafta find somewhere else to get one as somehow I feel like my DX Collectibles one isn't arriving anytime soon...
Oh true!
Nice review thank you for being coherent and chill
Always!
Can it do the iconic resting arm flexed in front with barrels pointing up?
I tried but couldn’t quite do it
The blue back ground on the packaging is a call back to OG attack of the clones promo shots. Some of the clones and count and jango have a similar background. I mean still weird choice.
Nice!
Let's buy 4 million sand bases ~ Hot Toys Star Wars design team
Yes!!!! ~ Howard Chan
Lololol 100%
Lol
My favorite Battle Droid
Hopefully we get a version of its Grappler version
Agreed!
There's always a hit, most of the time or miss sometimes, from Hot Toys. Don't get me wrong, Justin. I still have a lot of faith on that Company. In the Past, Hot Toys created Plethora of Fantasic Toys Available for Fans. Especially on this Present time. Hot Toys made Extraordinary Job, creating the New Super Battle Droid Figure. I'm very sure, they'll continue to make more Awesome Star Wars Characters, in the Future Friend. Truly Entertaining and Informative. Great Amazing Video as always. 🤩🤩😃👍👍
I really like this one
@@JustinsCollection 😃👍
To bad they are over $200 😢 I want them to make a BX series commando droid, I have a 3D printed BX and it is ok but the arms fall off a bit. The B2 looks like it is worth $220 but I’m not sure about buying this since it’s lacking in stuff. The Commander Fox phase one looks worth it big time. The paint job on the B2 looks great and the figure looks great 😮 this could be cool for some photos
Fair enough
To anyone who says the Battle Droids were ineffective at being a threat ....play Republic Commando these things are a freaking tank to kill
True!
Can you tell hot toys to make Darth Maul‘s brother Savage oppress?🤣🤣
Haha they don't listen to me
I really don't like that gold tinted faceplate for the SBD, because it's just not accurate. Yes, there are some shots where the reflection of the red Geonosian sand makes that part look that color, but the actual droid should be exclusively shades of silver and gunmetal and not have any gold color whatsoever. This is jut another case of Hot Toys making nearly perfect figures but then missing some of the most obvious details (missing strap and wrong chin on 501st heavy trooper, missing blue stripes on Jesse's hand armor, missing = shape on 501st and shock troopers, gold faceplate on SBD, etc.)
Ah interesting
It's a Superb Attle Droid
Lol is that a what we do in the shadows reference?
No droideka yet?
Not yet
Great review looks awesome. More than the new Vader or Padme, this is a figure I want in my collection. Unfortunately this is one of those Hot Toys that get trapped in the current HT price points. I can’t see myself paying $315 Canadian. It’s a relatively simple figure no accessories, head likeness etc. I guess I just will have to ......move along.
NOOOOOOOOOOOO00000000000000ooooooooooooooo………
Oh wow!
Agreed! Nice review Justin
Thanks!
Really cool figure, I wonder, since you didn't show it, is it not able to pose in the... how do I describe it, 'hold fire' pose when they stand with their blaster arm tucked inwards and up?
Not super well
@@JustinsCollection Shame, Thanks for such a quick response! Was happy to see the best looking B2’s in figure form… They did them dirty in Mandalorian in my opinion. Clone Wars too, But i can accept that more as s stylistic design. The Mandalorian one looks worse and more CGI somehow. But Thats just me. I rambled.
Thank you for the review, this CGI droid doesn’t to me give a realistic sense and i don’t want him as much as I want K2SO droid..which feels menacing and scary real ….does that make sense !!? 😂😂😂
No probs!
“Wrist those watch rockets!”
Love it!
A bit disappointed you let the non-seamless joints get away without pointing them out! Hot Toys is definitely getting more and more complacent.
Lol
Your the goat Justin
Damn thank you!
I love the figure, I think the forearm coming out might be for reload purposes but then again why is it on both arms? Very strange choice
Not sure
The B2's are often shown in a pose where they have their gun arm bent upward and the back of their hand shown to their target, which you can't really get it posed right with the figure without the arm extension. They may have added it to both in case you wanted to do other similar poses with both arms.
Well, I have 4 on the way and I’m kinda worried how I’ll actually like them. My favorite Star Wars droid period and man I’m worried
Why worried? It looks great! I got 3 coming. Unfortunately no Dooku. Do have a Jango tho. I wish HT had done the regular B1 rather than the Geonosis one. Got one of those, not sure how to pose them together…. Maybe I could dust the B2s with some pastel chalks?
I think you will
Hey justin, why is the head bronze? In mando and animated shows its all chrome
Not sure
Hey justin im deciding if i should buy the hot toys commander fox can you give me some tips please? I could really use it from a hot toy master.
If you have a clone wars display he's not a bad addition
Why wouldn’t they include an interchangeable rocket arm ? 😅
Agreed
Watch those rist rockets
Love it
Idk why it took me 20 years to realize the b2 is literally just a buff b1. Like the center of his upper torso is just a b1 head
Yeah haha
Why this base😢😢
Legit
The bronze finish on the face is so bizarre, how did they get that so wrong?
Is it?
The last pose with R2 is making me uncomfortable 😣😣😣... 😂
Oh
I still can't believe this figure exists. I'm also super glad they opted for this version of the B2 instead of that ugly variant from the Mandalorian.
Agreed
he just said a droid was shot by laia, but laia wasn't born during the clone wars....
I did? I know my Star Wars, maybe you misheard?
This is actually scaled quite accurately. B1 and B2 battle droids are all 6’4” as stated in their wiki. I mean even in the series, the droids never really towered over anyone. You should definitely do research next time before you start calling out inaccuracies
Noted!
Ok, so we have a Hot Toys B2 Super Battle Droid...and yet we still don't have a Star Wars Black Series B2 Super Battle Droid. Whatever happened to that figure???😅
Not sure!
B2 black series is currently on pre-order as a 2-pack with a C3PO b1 - it ships end of March.
Which R2 does he use in his pose?
The Force Awakens one
Hm. I might repaint this guy. Not jiving with the colour palette of the droids on geonosis
Oh fair!
@@JustinsCollection gorgeous figure and accurate to the scene tho
The battle droid is only 6.2
Yep!
Does it come in blue?
Unfortunately not
For £200 I'm sure they could have made it all metal xc
Fair
Bruh we just need general grievous
We do
Roger Roger wise words
Lol
Do you make any giveaways
Or will you make any giveaways
I do some yes
Why it cost so much im know I’m dept
Damn
You didn’t bother to test b2 on din djarin.
I did not
epic
Thanks!
@@JustinsCollection anytime
Is it a robot?
Yes
Roger Roger
Yes!
wow these are expensive
Agreed
COME ON DUDE WHERE IS ANAKIN LIKE
They need to release him first lol
3rd days for red hood and please give me a shoutout
It's not been delivered yet
I know there’s a lot of development that went into this one-off, but looks boring and hard to justify that much for it.
Fair enough
Really hate the whole 20th anniversary line just because these figures never release in the 20th anniversary they are only announced. Wish we would get announcements a couple years prior so they’d release when it’s their actual anniversary
I get it's a bit annoying but this is what's called a tail wags the dog argument!
Fair enough
@@halfvader8015 hahah I like that never heard of that before
The kenobi darth vader in my opinion is a little better
Ok!
🫶
Thanks!
1st again
Yes you are!
That is one nasty waste of time figure, from a terrible film, hot toys we have a a demand for master Chief from the new halo series, this is what you need to focus on. The series is insane and exactly what would make you guys lots of money. Stop making wacky figures like this....
I don't agree with that at all. There are a lot of folks out there, me being one of them that really wanted this guy. Yes I'd love a chief too but I'd not put down the wants of others if it doesn't appeal to you
@@JustinsCollection I am from the years of the original trilogy, 77 to 83, it's a time when there was thought and effort with that comes the true belief of what your watching is somthing extra special, no computer effects, real models, real sets and real skills from all these involved in making the star wars universe seem real. So figures like this and many others from the prequels have no substance or history and as a result do not have anything in common from the originals and you can tell the difference. Sorry Justin but as I said before they really are god awful compared to the originals. But I am happy that you and many others injoy these. Peace out...
@@cliffnewman5469 "no computer effects, real models, real sets and real skills from all these involved in making the star wars universe seem real." Wait until you find out how much practical stuff was in the prequels... might scare you.
As the wise George Lucas said himself: "People come and they say, 'oh all this digital stuff! Doesn't that make it all phoney, doesn't that make it- you know, its not TRUE! It's not real-' I say, you know, MOVIES AREN'T TRUE. It's all fake, the story is fake, the characters are fake, the sets are fake, there is no city there, thats not New York city! you go behind it, It's a big peice of wood! with a painting on it."
I always see this, 'I grew up with the originals so I know better!' Even though the creator disagrees with you and pushed Digital effects forwards for paved the way for the movie industry as a whole, so don't tell me 'no history.' just because you decided to ignore progress in the field. Undermining the INSANE stuff they had to invent for the effects.
Fire poses 🫡 I think we can all agree this thing looks pretty nice but boy does it seem overpriced. $240 for this? 😱 Imo this should be sub $200
Yea it’s a good looking figure but that price is outrageous for what you’re getting
Same for the B1s
@@Thrawns_Office Yeah those are pieces of shit too from what I can tell
@@DarthTamarus nah, I wouldn't say they're shit. They're actually built and painted very well. It's just the price point that's outrageous for what they are, imo
It’s a unique mold that Hot Toys isn’t able to use over and over. Plus fairly large in size. I’m actually surprised it wasn’t more.
