  • Finally the Bandai S.H. Figuarts Luke Skywalker from Star Wars: ANew Hope has been released! So happy, so ecstatic. So...wait, why is he smirking at me. What does he know that I don't? Hmmm...

  • @tpickup11
    @tpickup11 Před 8 lety +5

    I love the blue background! Looks a lot nicer, the figure looks really nice and I do agree that a Stormtrooper belt and E-11 blaster rifle would have been nice, I could understand it costing a little more. But they should have included the microbinoculars like they did with the Black Series. Speaking of which, the Black Series one isn't a bad figure either, the sculpt is there, it's just hard to see with the glossy plastic, plus, for a 20 dollar figure it's not going to be as jam packed with stuff like Figuarts since they cost between 40-80 and Black Series is just 20. Oh and do you think they'll do the swap out faces the exact same way with Suicide Squad Harley Quinn as they did with Luke? And also, who are you the most excited for in Suicide Squad? For me it's Harley Quinn.

    I don't think I have the bank to start moving from Black Series over to Figuarts, as my bread and butter Star Wars figures... But, I'll admit, between this New Hope Luke, and your recently reviewed TLJ Luke, I'm beginning to be won over -- at least by those two, where the likenesses are concerned. As well as the New Hope R2-D2, which I picked up after watching your review of it, as it is perfectly in scale with the Black Series. But, the two aforementioned Lukes, they're the best likenesses I've seen Figuarts pulling off, thus far. Whereas most of 'em just leave something to be desired, for me.

    @VictoriasCantina Před 8 lety +3

    He smiled when Obi-Wan told him he was a good pilot like his father. Also at the end when he got his medal. But, I think it's based off the promo pic where he looks just like that. Great vid! I've got mine on its way right now.

    • @TheFwoosh
      @TheFwoosh  Před 8 lety

      I think I remember the promo pic, where Hamill is just doing a lot of poses. And now that I've went back and watched that scene at the end, he's a grinning fool through the whole ceremony! How did I not remember that? Plus that now makes me want a costume of that scene. Thanks!

  • @Samuntrus
    @Samuntrus Před 8 lety +1

    While I am extremely happy with the figure, I do agree that he should've come with different accessories. I would've taken an alternate Stormtrooper belt and blaster setup than the training ball and helmet. And I really wish they'd chosen a different set of expressions. He was often shown as having his mouth slightly open (see the shot of him staring at the twin suns), so I would've preferred that to the standard bored looking face. And I would've loved a yelling expression (calling out to Han or Obi-Wan) over the smile. Still, a terrific figure, and I'm now dying for a Han & Chewie. Their December slot is still open, I believe, so there is hope, but like you mentioned, probably some Rogue One figures coming, which would still be pretty awesome.

    • @TheFwoosh
      @TheFwoosh  Před 8 lety +1

      Yeah, I'm good with Rogue One figures, and if it follows last year's pattern, December will be new movie stuff. But someone reminded me of even more accessories that could have/should have come with Luke. The poncho, bucket hat, and binoculars from the cut scenes. That would have been just as good as the Stormtrooper gear.

    Another awesome figure from the SH Figuarts line. Only gripe, like was with the Jedi Luke, is the golden highlighted hair. Not terrible, just would much prefer the blonde color they showed in the preview pics of the Jedi Luke figure. Oh well!

    • @TheFwoosh

    When you put the Black Series FB Luke next to the Figuarts Luke his proportions look way off, not just because of the soft goods but the head looks way too small compared to the body and the hands look a little too big. Anyway, can't wait to see the comparison a between BS Jango and Figuarts Jango, that's a comparison that might be more fair.

      This is probably the only chance at a good Farmboy Luke. The Black Series is okay, but this....wooo.

I'd love it, but not everyone would.

    it probably doesn't but does the belt come off or is it sculpted on?the black series new hope han has a stormtrooper belt that comes with han might be able to fit it over lukes belt cause this luke looks pretty slim

    • @TheFwoosh
      @TheFwoosh  Před 8 lety +1

      The belt is sculpted onto the lower tunic. Can probably come off, pull apart the body at the waist like most other SHF, but you lose the bottom of the shirt if you do.

  • @bladerunner1b
    @bladerunner1b Před 8 lety +1

    I'm with you man i feel they are messing up kinda badly with all the prequel love.(Especially AOTC, the worst SW movie imo).
    By the time they get all the figures i need done i fear i will be 50. (currently 43)
    Anyway, fantastic review as always. Can't believe you made that smiling sculpt look semi decent. That would be a first.

    • @TheFwoosh
      @TheFwoosh  Před 8 lety +1

      We're about the same age so we're in the same boat. Will I live long enough to see that Han and Chewie? Who knows! The thing about the Prequels, I don't care about the movies but I like the characters, if that makes any sense. I don't like seeing the whole line devoted to it but there are some I want. And don't get me wrong, OT all the way. I NEED the ANH cast all in SHF form.

    • @TheFwoosh
      @TheFwoosh  Před 8 lety +1

      If they do another Luke he has to be the next one, right? Only other major costume is the X-Wing pilot gear. Maybe Hoth.

    • @ookamiakatsuki

      Ack, I don't even want to imagine the cost on that. Because I would pay it but I would be in troooouuuubbble. I meant to say something during the video after I took the pics of Luke sitting, someone needs to give us a Landspeeder.

      That is one of the cool things about them going Prequel for the most part. Hopefully we'll see that Grievous at some point. But the kid in me wants more OT too.

    • @graefx

  • @falcongunner33
    @falcongunner33 Před 8 lety +1

    great review. now could you possibly put the blast shield and the training ball on the black series farm boy Luke? that would hide the awful head and leave the figuarts as the main center piece of the shelf.

    • @TheFwoosh
      @TheFwoosh  Před 8 lety

      After posting this I saw someone on the forum do exactly that, and then it hit me. The reason the back of the head comes out of the helmet is to make it just a standard regular empty helmet.

    • @falcongunner33
      @falcongunner33 Před 8 lety +1

      +The Fwoosh fantastic! these accessories should've been included with the black series in my opinion.

    • @TheFwoosh
      @TheFwoosh  Před 8 lety

      falcongunner I always associate blast effects with import toys, but as far as the helmet goes, yeah, agree. I mean, Han came with switchable gloved hands and the Stormtrooper belt, Luke should have come with extras too.

    • @falcongunner33
      @falcongunner33 Před 8 lety +1

      +The Fwoosh Totally. I thought Han had set the tone for what the black series line was going to be but it's really just an amazing anomaly in a sea of boring, under accessorized figures.

    Hełlo Robo! Thx for this review! After watched this video, I have two questions to you.:-) In your opinoion: wich one is the better version of Luke? Ep IV or Ep VI. one? :-) My sec question: did you try to put lukes head on the Bandai/figuarts stormtrooper figure, it could work, or it has a different size of peg/hole? Thanks for your answer! And i'm waiting your Han Solo and Unmasked kylos reviews! :-)

    • @TheFwoosh
      @TheFwoosh  Před 7 lety

      I actually don't have a Bandai trooper, always found them to be a little small, so I don't know what Luke's head would look on it. But if I had to pick between Farmboy and Jedi I'd have to go with....gah.....Farmboy. Jedi was he one that got me into imports so there is a lot of sentimentality there, but Farmboy is more accurate, I think. And I skipped on unmasked Kylo, I don't know why, haha. Han should be here soon.

  • @imconno
    @imconno Před 8 lety +1

    This Figuarts Luke is superior to the Hasbro version. At least this head sculpt resembles Mark Hamill, the Hasbro one looks like He Man crossed with Derek Zoolander.

  • @Jeddostotle7
    @Jeddostotle7 Před 7 lety +1

    Is the belt a separate piece from the tunic/lower body like on the SHF Mace Windu and Obi-Wan figures? If it is, what I'm thinking about doing is getting this and a rickhor409 Luke tunic, popping it apart at the waist, slipping the tunic on, and putting the belt over to hold it in place and complete the look.

    • @TheFwoosh
      @TheFwoosh  Před 7 lety

      The belt is part of the lower shirt, or skirt. But with some careful trimming I'm sure it could be separated.

    • @Jeddostotle7
      @Jeddostotle7 Před 7 lety +2

      The Fwoosh Ah, damn. Thanks, though. I'm still gonna try to do what I said in my comment, but now I'm gonna be hella nervous in successfully accomplishing it.

    @nightwingjosh8491 Před 8 lety

    This figure is a must have! I've found him for a pretty good price (not saying where of how much in case I inspire others to also get them). I agree, I wish it had a stormtrooper belt like blacks series han. hopefully we'll get that with figuarts han as an extra accessory like the vader/anakin head that came with rotj luke (i'm assuming the upper and lower halfs of luke seperate and reconenct with ease and the belt is a seperate piece like other figuarts)

    • @standard03
