Those pouches being an off color are actually accurate to some suits. You can see on the Magic of Myth Scout Trooper that is on exhibit it has these color pouches. It's one of the sources people could readily see and the pouches on that suit are an off white/cream color. Most scouts on the set definitely have white pouches but you'll see pictures of scouts with these color pouches and many of the legion members replicate this look as well. Just one of those quirks really.
As I said in the video, I know they’re supposed to more beige, however I was surprised at how drastic the difference is
@@JustinsCollection I just went back and re-watched the entire 28 minute review and you not once acknowledged they're supposed to be that color. You talk about the color "mismatch" and how it's not the biggest deal in the world. Later on in the video you talk about it again saying how the soft parts are supposed to be more weathered than the armor and how its too saturated. They're not that color because of weathering, they were just that color to begin with. The MOTM display really shows it. I only mentioned this initially in case people were considering passing on this thinking the color was just wrong.
The helmet also is supposed to have that gap as well. The Mandalorian Scout used the EFX bucket... that bucket has lineage to the original helmet derived from the original wood bucks, albeit idealized for modern collectors much like many stormtrooper helmets have been. The armor from the Mandalorian was sourced by a fan creator which is why the armor is drastically different in the mandalorian version as mentioned in your review. That being said, because the EFX helmet used in mando had lineage to the original, it was already accurate to ROTJ in that regard so hot toys just reused that helmet mold. You can see those gaps on the EFX kit.
At the end of the day the Star Wars universe is just littered with quirks like that. Your reviews are absolutely fantastic and really show every detail possible. They have helped me decide on whether I want a hot toys or not for sure! It's the closest and best thing we get to "seeing it in person" when we order these expensive collectibles online so thank you so much for that!
Since this guy was released, I have checked every day for Justin's Review. Awesome job and I love all the comparisons. I say bring on more OT figures!!
Noice!
Always loved scout troopers great designs
Same here!
loved this review and i am a huge star wars fan this figure is just amazing
Thank you!
Awesome review on an amazing figure! I like how crisp the black features on the figure come out against the white armor!
Thank you!
Really great figure, always good to wake up to a justins collection video. Really professionally executed.
Much appreciated!
One of my favorite trooper designs too might have to get him and finally get a trooper in my collection
Go for it!
i love the look of that bike and the figure is amazing too
Nice!
Wednesday August 10th my Scout Trooper will arrive! Will arrive. Had to get the regular version couldn't afford the bike. He looks far superior to Sideshows. That sniper gun sold me. Has my favorite Stormtrooper from the original trilogy. I'm so glad he comes with the regular wrist pegs. I'm not looking forward to changing up the Darth Vader hands. The Star Wars one, yes I still call A New Hope Star Wars I was 4 in 1977, are nice and easy to change. I would have rathered a little gap in new upcoming Vader with the regular pegs instead of the ones he's coming with.
Nice!
This set looks amazing but the price is killing my wallet. Still very excited that Hot Toys released it. Thanks for the great review!
Fair enough!
I actually think the helmet sculpt isn't a problem. Basically, the one everyone says this isn't accurate to is one of may actors. The first one you see who says "freeze" to Leia, does have a gap in the helmet, however it isn't as pronounced. You can easily imagine this guy as one of many imperial scouts who had a slightly bigger head. So no biggie for me! The cummerbund though is a little off for me. Other than that, fantastic figure.
Fair enough!
Great info and review as always
Thank you!
Cheers for the review. Very informative again. I do prefer the weathering on the promo figure compared to the actual release but I can live with it.
No probs!
One extra wash of black paint and he’s perfect 👌👌👌
Fair!
Yes just yes!!❤
Heck yeah!
The fabric section around his waist is supposed to be that different colour. All of the scout trooper action figures from Jedi have that section painted in exactly the same way. Hot Toys got that right.
I know, I said it was supposed to be different
I currently have the mandalorian scout and speeder set with an additional scout trooper to recreate that scene and was wondering if these were different at all. Glad to see that they do have differences and I just might have to get at least 1 of the ROTJ versions. Would love the speeder bike as well, but I just don't have much room for it. Great review Justin.
They sure do! Thanks for watching!
I just got the Mando scout. He was on-sale at Sideshow... couldn't resist.
What a great channel thanks!
Glad you enjoy it!
Excellent review Justin this release with the speeder bike is beautiful! The black background was a good choice for this one, and also if Hot Toys releases a Han Solo from ROTJ I'd be pretty excited
Thank you! I had to as the trooper would vanish on a white background
I like scout troopers well done 👍 and a good find dude 😎
Thanks!
Hi Justin which one is better. This one return of jedi or mando version?
ROTJ for me
Awesome figures! You might need another speeder bike to have Luke on it too. Nice 👍🏻 review bro! I can’t wait to see your Bona Fett arena suit review ✌🏼
Haha true!
Killer fig 🔥🔥🔥
For sure!
Ahh another video of a figure worth more than my house 🏡👍👍👍
Nice
Your house must be terrible
Not quite lol
Cool figure
Thanks!
This too is my favorite Trooper! Better than the Mando definitely! Clearly they are not going to waste money making a new helmet, yes is lazy and am not giving them credit is just financial sense. I would have liked a new helmet for sure but it is what it is am just glad we got another figured and not the old flimsy one from sideshow.
Dope!
Glad to see this review as I was wondering how the ROTJ set was different than the Mando version and happy to see there are differences, especially the trooper and Hot Toys didn't take a shortcut. That being said I really like the ROTJ set as the wind burn effects on the speeder stand out so much on the darker color set.
Awesome! Glad I could help!
I made an imperial assault on Hoth diorama for Christmas 3 years ago, because I’m an idiot.
I have 4 Sideshow snow troopers and 1 Hasbro.
I only switched the Hasbro gun for Sideshows.
And then it clicked.
Awesome!
Out of all three in my opinion the Return of the Jedi Scout Trooper blows the other 2 away. Best representation of a scout trooper I have yet seen. I really don't like the Mandalorian ones as I stated many times I am not a fan of Disney I'm not a fan of the Mandalorian but when I did watch the show I thought that the outfit was a lot closer to The Return of the Jedi one that it actually is. I came very close to buying him because the Return of the Jedi Scout Troopers on my favorite kind of Stormtroopers and the original trilogy. My favorite troopers over all are the Attack of the Clones Phase 1 Clone Trooper, from the entire Saga episodes 1 through 6. But I remember the reason why I did not buy the Mandalorian Scout Trooper the same day he became available through sideshow they announced the Return of the Jedi one so that right there made my decision. And I started comparing the two through the pics that they had on this site and the Return of the Jedi Scout Trooper just blows away the Mandalorian one on every level. The only thing I can say about the Mandalorian one that I think looks cool is the weathering I like the fact that they really dirty. And I'm really hoping Hot Toys will release a phase 1 clone that's absolutely filthy. Just like the sideshow veteran one. I'm sure they will but who knows when the 20th anniversary Attack of the Clones figures will even be out.
Fair enough! Thanks for watching!
Very nice set, but I’m not sure I’m going to get right away. With how the Mando version has sat in stock and is discounted I might wait it out for at least a bit.
Also Justin, side question- would you ever consider reviewing any of the EXO-6 Star Trek figures?
Fair
Just me but would have loved to see how the white ROTJ trooper looked on the white Mando bike. Would that be your 'ultimate' version?
Oh, sorry!
The pounches are meant to be a beige looking colour
Ok!
Is toys wonderland usually considerably cheaper than sideshow. Thinking about starting a collection of hot toys and don't know the best place to order. I'm in the USA 🇺🇸
Depends on the figure
❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥
Thanks!
I love the pose of him aiming his rifle while using the bike as cover, so awesome. Has this actually released yet?
It's released in Hong Kong!
@@JustinsCollection Thanks, curious about the release for the US now! This is a “must have” for me.
If you want a cheap really cool 6 piece Bounty Hunter crew.
Hasbro baby.
Only with the gun swap.
Also a great option
Now what to use to display it? Won't fit in a detolf.
I don't have detolfs anymore
If the Velcro stick wears out, how can I replace it?
I don't think it will
If possible could somebody please inform me as to how high the display is when the scout trooper is sitting on top of the speeder bike? I’d just like to know so that I can also buy a display case for it. Cheers 😊
Check the site perhaps?
Thanks Justin for the response. I had a thorough read and the page doesn't mention any details regarding how tall the overall display is when combined. Oh well, I'm still considering whether or not to purchase it as it is quite large and expensive :)
I wouldn’t call that gap a problem. In Star Wars their helmets have a flip up face plate hence why there’s a gap and a hinge on the helmet.
I mean it’s normally closed or open. I don’t see anyone displaying Vader with his mask half on
How long did it take for it to arrive?
It depends where you live and the shipping service
Ken you get a jet tropor
I have the jump trooper
does'nt the helmit hinge up
Nope
Just can't handle the weathering on the remnant troopers from Mando. It's probably accurate but makes the armor look like a dirty toilet. #toilettrooper
Having said that i love the large scale speeder bikes and agree with Justin that the crisp white speeder looks great.
Agreed
Justin will you be getting the Arena Boba?
Should be here tomorrow!
@@JustinsCollection Awesome!!
Which type of trooper is your favourite?
Deathtrooper!
I for the love of god can't find the locations that toys wonderland don't ship to, I know it says worldwide shipping but definitely there are countries that toys wonderland can't ship to but I can't find it, can someone please help me , I live in "Iran" and I really want to know if they ship to here or not
Not sure there is a list of that
@@JustinsCollection usually websites do have a list for it but I guess this one doesn't 😢
For the not so successful people 🖖🏼.
Hasbro 12 inch armor, bike and the latest hot toys body and old school skills.
A great option
Okay this is such a bad ass pose for the figure 26:21
What don’t you like about it?
@@JustinsCollection no no that’s a slang we use here in the US, basically saying it’s a really cool pose.
Is he exactly the same height as the Mandalorian version?
Yes, the same body
Would've loved to see Luke and or Leia on the speeder
Oh sorry
whose not to say that won't be released next year for the 40th anniversary of ROTJ?
cool figureDo you still have your mask figure
I wish I still did!
I actually have a helmet of that one
Nice!
The back piece (thermal detonator) is annoying in the actual costume as well.
Oh
Still not a big fan of stars wars but I'm thinking ab watching it I think it's cool, oh yeah I forgot. to say that I'm going camping with my family for 3 days so I'm not going to be able to watch ur videos
Enjoy camping!
@@JustinsCollection ty
It's yours now for only $449
Only $499
everybody can buy it
😬😬😬
Lol
Bro plzzzzz moon knight toys plzzzzzzz
When he is out
HT was a little too accurate with that gap helmet. No one would have cared if they fixed the on set issue. And they definitely should have avoided the gap if they knew they wouldn't fix it on this figure. Too bad. The gap is unsightly.
Agreed
Just checked on the SW chronicles AND Lucasfilms archives books AND the photos of the scout troopers from ROTJ clearly have that Gap on the helmets, these are books from 1997, so it's accurate I Guess, gonna check the movie AND see If the gap Is noticeable on film
@@patclau006 Interesting. i checked some Jedi footage. The seam is pretty tight on the Trooper Han fights. No gap like on the Mando helmet.
@@MBDyson829 Yes watching it now, the médium shots of the trooper has the helmet tightly sealed with no Gap, Also checked My Jakks pacífic big figs 19" scout troopers AND they also sculpted the Gap but not as wide as Hoy toys, My Guess Is that the sculptors used reference material from Lucasfilm that showed the gap in the helmet
Why the black light box it’s different
Because the figure is white, you wouldn’t be able to see him otherwise
For 350€ its a big joke they make this helmet fail ,damn wtf ??????
Yeah not ideal
First
Nice!
third :/
Noice!
