Well folks, heres my reviews of Luke and Kylo. Definitely in this for the long haul now xD Im also shocked at how many views my model kit FO trooper got, its already my most viewed video!



 
Great reviews friend!

Does anyone have any idea as to when this month obi wan is released? End of the month? Creep into next month? I can't find info anywhere as to when it's released
 
Is that Luke the reissue Luke..don't see any changes than mine, in fact the hair looks yellow :panic:

If you mean the review, nope its the first version, though mine seems to have more of a blackwash on it than other reviews ive seen. The yellow is just the harshness of my light, needs to be brighter on black figures to bring out details on camera, but causes issues elsewhere.

:lol I give you kudos for the attempt, but why would you give him that look

How did you do it. close up pics and a description please
 
Does anyone know if the cape for the BS Vader is removable? Not feeling the cape on the Figuarts at all. I'm interested in applying a soft goods cape. Are there any good alternatives?

The real one is sewed through holes on the armor, but there is a bootleg one thats not only cheaper, but the cape is identical and isnt sewed on.
 
Aliexpress is where I usually get the dragonball z figuarts bootlegs to review, I can almost guarantee they will be there too.
 
No problem! Did some digging and found this on Aliexpress:

Star Wars The Force Awakens The Black Series Darth Maul Han Solo Darth Vader Captain Phasma Stormtrooper Boba Fett Figure Model-in Action & Toy Figures from Toys & Hobbies on Aliexpress.com | Alibaba Group

Thats every decent bootleg for the black series so far, even got Phasma and different FO troops to pad out collections, they actually look good! Hope that helps!

I had no idea there were so many fakes for the black series. Might have to review some, the "srar wals" packaging on some is hilarious xD

It definitely does, thanks again man!
 
I got inspired by jaycepticon's IG photos and swapped out the TBS Kylo soft goods onto the SHF Kylo. Much better now, the best of both worlds.

Watched your kylo review, thanks Big D. I'm kinda warming up to his own robes in a normal pose. Hood seems pliable enough to give it a better shape. Somebody here tried that, I forgot who, how's that working out?

You could always get the Mafex Vader. Scales much better then the Figuarts, has the cloth cape, and is cheaper.
