I know this is a few years old, but I rewatch this all the time. The beginning cracks me up, the Dio reference is hilarious, and the “what the hell are they doing with this figure?” DEFINITELY gets me every time. “I’m gonna let a stand outsmart me, that’s amazing.” Love it! This entire video is just full of funny Robo moments 😂
I am a figuarts lover, but throughout the whole review I was thinking that the Black Series was making it difficult to justify paying the higher price. I will be giving these a miss. Thanks for the review. Love seeing you back on youtube.
Robo: we have gotten these figures a couple's of time before Also Robo: So this is my vader/boba/stormtrooper figure number 57 I don't mind tho, i robo uploads a new review i feel the need of watching
Ordered my figures from CDJapan. Great price but no stands! Their customer service said they did not "participate". Something lost in translation. Nice to see your reviews again.
@@jeggsonvohees2201 I had to email CDJapan about not getting the stands. My understanding was the stands were a bonus like the TLJ droids and that all shops "participated". I prefer the obitsu AC10 stands anyway; more build options and quite sturdy. But a freebie is a freebie!
I got 2 First Order stands with my Rey & Ren. But considering I wasnt expecting any in the first place; no complaints. I also got kit kats? Thanks HLJ. The "eyyyyy" hands are for holding the helmet when you have it off and the unmasked head on, same as the TLJ SHF.
When I stared following you had 40k subscribers. Now look at you go. Haha. Awesome. You are one of the best reviews on youtube. Hopefully I get to meet you in person someday. Many blessings Robo. 💪😊
Yep. Hasbro has been killing it with Marvel Legends and the Black Series. The only reason I buy imports now is if I feel it's unlikely Hasbro will make the same figure.
This review makes me sad because we never got any Figuarts Finns, Poe, Grevious, Droidekas, etc. But somehow we're this many Kylo and Rey's deep :( lol
I must agree with you Robo! I’m a huge Figuarts fan, but the toned down red on Kylo’s dome and Rey’s many shortcomings make the Black Series a great option. Hard pass on Rey... Kylo just needs some paint and a steady hand! Anyways, awesome to have you back on the Tube platform. Gus... good day to you, you sneaky bastard!
It's great Kylo comes with 3 sabers, unlit, unlit with peg, and ignited. I wish every single Jedi came equipped like this, and not like Kenobi, where they've given him the same hilt as the new hope version, even though ep III doesnt have a d ring (and on anh version it serves a practical purpose, as it hangs from the belt by that very ring - not the case in ep III though). Those minor inaccuracies drive me insane sometimes. I hope they will nail all of the empire strikes back figures. I cant wait for Lukes, mostly.
Hey robo, just got my kylo, love him a ton, thought I'd let you know that figuarts resculpted the Sabre hilt, and the neck of the helmeted head, also the new helmet is a bit larger than the TLJ version, looks more beastly imo
Thank you for this review! Soooo glad I decided to just get Black Series TRoS Rey instead of Figurarts. That hood tempted me but was not worth paying $30 more.
So Kylo is worth the money, just being a menacing bad guy with fun options...and Rey, I’m good w/o her unlike Ben/ cannot bend Solo! Great review as always Robo!
figuarts kylo ren is too small for 1:12 scale, figuarts rey, black series rey and black series kylo ren are correct 1:12 scale, most of the time figuarts is correct 1:12 scale but they still frequently make some figures too small , black series figures are i would say almost always in the correct 1:12 scale
I don't know. I really like that Kylo Ren, I kinda want to get it but I have The Last Jedi version. As much as I like and really want that cloth hood and cape, I dont wanna spend $60 on the same figure to only get one thing that's added. But damn, that cloth cape and hood is really calling to me
10:13 Oh look, a D-Ring. Silly Bandai.. they forgot to remove that; because that's inaccurate to the movie prop. Edit: They should've just left with the floating belt like they did with TLJ Figuarts Rey; sorrynotsorry but, that figure is bad considering the hindered articulation of the engineering and quality control with the ball joints on the legs. Pretty much the articulation is useless if that's the case tbh Don't get me wrong; the overall look is good, but the articulation functions as pretty much borderline useless for a $70 import figure. Edit: Going back to this comment made me realize whoever designed that Rey figure doesn't know how articulation works and turned it into a brick.
Rey should arrive Friday, I'm looking forward to getting the figure. I'll probably pick up Kylo soon ish. I like that he's darker and the cape seems great. I'll use my TLJ version to make a Starkiller figure, perhaps.
Good thing I passed this Rey figure. Kinda this Kylo for the cloth cape tho. Nice review as always. P/s: My RUclips feed looks nice with your vids here Robo =)))
Heck yeah fwoosh is back, addiction is back. Ugh in Rey mine arrives on Friday along with the Sith Trooper. I skipped on Kylo since I have tlj for now. Great vid honest and on point. Still get shf > bs😝
Does this mean I can stop checking Vimeo now? Will every video be uploaded here? I was still checking Vimeo just in case and so I’ve already seen this one.
Hey I know I'm late but I just found you channel and really enjoyed this video like shit man. You funny as shit and looking forward watching all your video gotta ketchup
I have to agree with You, I'll take the Black Series versions of Both, Over these 2, All Day Long. Especially considering Bandai Reused 90% of their last Kylo too. I also Agree on Kylo's Cape, it's Odd that Figuarts has gone to Softgoods, and The Black Series has gone to Plastic, but You can get a Custom, Wired Cloth Cape for the Black Series and still spend less than the Figuarts version. The Only thing I wish Hasbro had done with the Rey, is give Her a Swappable Hood Up Option, but She does come with the Bag, that the Figuarts doesn't come with. I know Figuarts Lovers are going to say that the Black Series doesn't come with Extra Hands, but Honestly, I don't need another Baggie of Hands in the Drawer, and I'm more than Satisfied with My Black Series representations of these 2, which cost Less than One of those 2 Figuarts Versions.
My overall impression of those two figures is that they are lackluster. Totally not worth the shf name. Whie I do not like BS due to the materials used, which translate into loose and ratchety joints, I think in terms of proportions they look signifficantly better.

As someone not too eager to rush to see Rise of Skywalker, I see cool toys, I want them. Regardless on how the film is, I want them toys.
Kylo Ren’s helmet is basically Kintsugi, the Japanese art of fixing pottery by sealing cracks and gaps with gold.
Lovely, you learn something new every day.
@Austinsuav3 yeah but in the trailer, he welds it together, I just think that Abrams just wanted the look of the art
Hmm... I never thought of it that way
@darkfullgor 0_0 that sounds stupider than the reforged mask
@@TheJohn9910 yeah right??

As much as they cost they should all come with a stand
JH4073 true
When Dio has a stand in the 80s it didn’t work out that well.
They cost high end when buying thru us distributors. Buying thru Asian retailers, they cost relatively cheaper (not including shipping options).

Omg, thank you so much for reviewing the stands as well. I could not figure out how to put it together without risk of breaking it.
💖💖💖 Great review.
I’m so happy I only got the Kylo figure now. The Rey black series is amazing
So the kylo sh f is better? i have doubts on the headsculpt
Good to see you back man.
Gotta love those Dio references! Love your videos, keep em coming.
When I stared following you had 40k subscribers. Now look at you go. Haha. Awesome. You are one of the best reviews on youtube. Hopefully I get to meet you in person someday. Many blessings Robo. 💪😊
"Rainbow in the dark" you did good :)
It's pretty crazy that Black Series went from being a let down line of figures to a line that can compare to SHF. Great review!
Yep. Hasbro has been killing it with Marvel Legends and the Black Series. The only reason I buy imports now is if I feel it's unlikely Hasbro will make the same figure.
i'm glad you didn't quit
This review makes me sad because we never got any Figuarts Finns, Poe, Grevious, Droidekas, etc. But somehow we're this many Kylo and Rey's deep :( lol
I must agree with you Robo! I’m a huge Figuarts fan, but the toned down red on Kylo’s dome and Rey’s many shortcomings make the Black Series a great option.
Hard pass on Rey... Kylo just needs some paint and a steady hand!
Anyways, awesome to have you back on the Tube platform.
Gus... good day to you, you sneaky bastard!
Sooo glad your back.
Black series has been catching up for awhile now. This confirms it. Especially the Rey. Black series all the way.
It's great Kylo comes with 3 sabers, unlit, unlit with peg, and ignited. I wish every single Jedi came equipped like this, and not like Kenobi, where they've given him the same hilt as the new hope version, even though ep III doesnt have a d ring (and on anh version it serves a practical purpose, as it hangs from the belt by that very ring - not the case in ep III though).

So glad I passed on them. Give us new characters from all the other movies.
12:47 *menecing!!!!!!*
Thank you for this review! Soooo glad I decided to just get Black Series TRoS Rey instead of Figurarts. That hood tempted me but was not worth paying $30 more.
HOLY DIVAAHHHHH
So Kylo is worth the money, just being a menacing bad guy with fun options...and Rey, I’m good w/o her unlike Ben/ cannot bend Solo! Great review as always Robo!
Never been excited for the SHF Rey, Black Series will do! So glad you mentioned the Mafex KR it is easily the best KR and I have him!
Neat. Tamashii Nations finally figured out how to do a good-looking cloth cape.
Can you put the cloak with the Adam Driver head for ur figure? Because it seems impossible
That Rey torso (lack of) articulation is a bit of a pain. Considering she’s like ‘Action-Girl’ I’d love some articulation for dioramas.
figuarts kylo ren is too small for 1:12 scale, figuarts rey, black series rey and black series kylo ren are correct 1:12 scale, most of the time figuarts is correct 1:12 scale but they still frequently make some figures too small , black series figures are i would say almost always in the correct 1:12 scale
I'm so you came back to RUclips but I'm still going to subscribe to your patreon
That holy diver bit was prime
I don't know. I really like that Kylo Ren, I kinda want to get it but I have The Last Jedi version. As much as I like and really want that cloth hood and cape, I dont wanna spend $60 on the same figure to only get one thing that's added. But damn, that cloth cape and hood is really calling to me
Awesome review! the black series island journey rey is my fave too..
10:13
Oh look, a D-Ring.
Silly Bandai.. they forgot to remove that; because that's inaccurate to the movie prop.
Edit: They should've just left with the floating belt like they did with TLJ Figuarts Rey; sorrynotsorry but, that figure is bad considering the hindered articulation of the engineering and quality control with the ball joints on the legs.

Hi. May I know the debossed letter on the back of the emblem stage of Kylo Ren? I know Rey's is B.
So you wanna tell me Rey is unnecessarily “tight” and you need to “force it in there”?
( I feel so dirty now 😔. )
Jon Snow you need Jesus
@@MrYouhavejustFAILED Nothing but snow up here in the north ... and a lot of time. Oh, and Robos videos ^^
If you like that you should check out DevilHS's Rey designs.
GOOD YOU SHOULD
Rey should arrive Friday, I'm looking forward to getting the figure. I'll probably pick up Kylo soon ish. I like that he's darker and the cape seems great. I'll use my TLJ version to make a Starkiller figure, perhaps.
Good thing I passed this Rey figure. Kinda this Kylo for the cloth cape tho. Nice review as always.
P/s: My RUclips feed looks nice with your vids here Robo =)))
Any chance we'll be getting a top ten figures of 2019 video soon?
0:53 same copper look for the PREQUELS?
9:48 she was like she was doing the Great Cornholio pose.
Watched on Vimeo came here to watch it again 😁 double dose of robo lol
Its a shame they didnt even try to achieve some character development through different outfits.
Sbody knows in which physical stores are the shf figures?
Are you getting the model kit Rise of Skywalker kylo Robo? Would like to see how that turns out
Heck yeah fwoosh is back, addiction is back. Ugh in Rey mine arrives on Friday along with the Sith Trooper. I skipped on Kylo since I have tlj for now. Great vid honest and on point. Still get shf > bs😝
The Black Series and SH don't have the gold/yellow lightsaber yet .
Did someone manage to put the unmasked head with the cape or is it just me that can't ?
Where do you get your action figures
Thanks bud great review as all ways
I feel you should make the red brighter on kylo's helmet
That blaster is rockets blaster in volume 2 2 pack with baby groot that they resized,check if you don’t believe me
You should buy the TRoS Kylo Ren Model Kit! It looks great!
Figuarts kylo with the black series rey! Your the best!!
Where can i get the Kylo Ren figure in canada
Hi can i buy on big bad toys store even though I'm from the Philippines?
I just wanted one to look like Daisy the only reason I like the SH one
I love the SH Figuarts Lightsabers
Lord, that intro has Eastern NC written all over it, I was laughing and laughing and then the years came. To close to the chest Robo, too close
Does this mean I can stop checking Vimeo now? Will every video be uploaded here?
I was still checking Vimeo just in case and so I’ve already seen this one.
My mafex Spider-Man has that same leg issue
13:13
Kore ga... Za Warudo Da
STANDO POWAH!
Now if only S.H. Figuarts would make figures based on DevilHS's Light and Dark Rey designs.
Where can I find kylo ren?
So...to get the Rey figure switched out you have to..."use the force"? ;)
Please review Kylo ren (the rise of skywalker) Model kit...
Hasbro has my money on this one.
How much for Guss? $$$
I ❤ Gus!
never laughed so hard before. great video!!
When i hear robo not like a fìgure it always gets me down, ...cause hes free and i see that it me, whos lost and never found..
LOOK OUT!
Gusss is back
RIDE THE TIGER!
If she came with Leia's lightsaber I would have bought her but i'll get last jedi instead
For x3 the price these figures sacrifice looking good for supreme articulation.
Hey I know I'm late but I just found you channel and really enjoyed this video like shit man. You funny as shit and looking forward watching all your video gotta ketchup
I like the kylo ren figure
Missed you

Surprised with the quality of the black series kylo and Rey, safe to say they’re better than the figure arts
Is it just me, or does D-O look like a 1930's Disney cartoon character?
The Fwoosh is now known for can this figure kick there own ass
Great, now I've gotta listen to some Dio after this review. Oh what's becoming of me?
Eek... That Rey will be marked down by a crazy amount in the next couple of months
Oh good, I can use one to make a DevilHS Rey soon then. :)
One time,I literally saw a Sh Figure arts Rey for 20$.
Are those the Hasbro Black series doll action figure toys?
Welcome back, Robo.
And yeah, they butchered the Rey.
Damn did bandai make this or mcfarlane 🤣🤣
I was literally just watching one of your vids :P
SHF has been slacking off on their quality for the past 2 years TBH.
Midnite Reveries yeah and the prices go higher
You been down to long in the midnight seas oh what's becoming of me
Robo does great review on newer figures,trump gets impeached. what a day,what a lovely day. lol.
Kylo Ren = Great Value Darth Vader
I love holy diver
ROBO, THERE'S A RISE OF SKYWALKER KYLO REN MODEL KIT
ITS BEEN TOO LONG!!! 😭
they gave the shf rey a fivehead
