Is this going to be the only TPM release then? I was expecting some more announcements by now.
A Padawan Obi would push me to get this one, so I can display them facing off. Then my old DX17 fighting Qui Gon in the desert look.
 
@BrooklynWolf X:

I appreciate that you take the time to pose your figures with other things, and make them dynamic. Some of them go on still a bit too long for me (particularly the last one where you compared the previous ROTJ Luke to the Mando Luke -- which by the way, I agree with you. I hated "Mouthbreather Luke" from the moment I saw it, and didn't even consider PO'ing the thing), but your grievance in that video went on a bit long (sorry, just mho); you could have shown them side by side as you did and said your piece within less than 30 seconds and then got back to the Mando Luke. These, of course, are just my opinions, and you do you. I tend to avoid video reviews altogether for all the reasons I mentioned above. (I did, however, really like your second video above regarding the Anakin figure -- relatively short, and to the point, and some great action poses, and nice closeups of the sculpt -- which, lets face it, is the most important part of any of these figures. And I do appreciate that you get right to the figure in that one and don't waste time showing the freaking box, or the clam-shell unboxing.

Doubtful. They've been wrapped up with this Dark Side event and showing off stuff from that, Maul fits in with it.

The actual Phantom Menace anniversary is in two weeks, maybe we see Padawan Obi-Wan then. Or maybe they'll wait until the end of the year like they did for AOTC.

Would imagine they'll put out the B1 Battle Droid in the right color since they already have the mould made. Maybe another Padme of some sort, the red combat outfit from the end or something.

Personally I'd love if they make Plo Koon because I want more Jedi, or Nute Gunray, for another baddie.

Thanks for the views and sharing your thoughts 😁

I really wanted to emphasize how much I LOATHED the RoTJ portrait. I hate it with the fiery intensity of a thousand suns. That’s why I spent so much time on that segment😅😅
 
I kinda want to see HT make that weird original Yoda. I feel like you just wouldn't have a true Episode I collection without him.

Hasnt kit fisto been on coming soon for a long time now?
 
I hate this guy's reviews and am genuinely baffled as to why he's the first one to be posted on this particular forum. Always.

It's essentially Justin (same EXACT words, phrases, format EVERY time. Like a robot)

Just who the hell has a finger in the clicks here? Dudes videos look good. He absolutely is not reviewing the figure by any stretch of the imagination.

First 4K "review" up takes it? Is that the thing?
Dude I don’t know MRC personally but he’s 100% providing a service to the hobby… he has the first high quality video of figures in hand upon release so everyone can get a good look. He earned the right to get his videos up first because he takes public transit with his bike in the rain sometimes and stands in line to get these figures in person. And I don’t watch him for his thoughts on a figure. I watch, like most collectors to see high quality video of it and make my own decision on weather or not I will get the figure. I don’t need his in the form of a review.
 
His videos are great. You always find out so much about the figure from his reviews.

As for this Maul, I have the Solo version and a custom version which is very similar to the Clone Wars one....but I like the look of the relaxed face head sculpt here.l It looks a bit thinner and more suited to what he looked like in Clone Wars.

Do I need to make a third Maul though? No, I really don't. I look forward to it anyway. :p
