  • Probably my most negative review of a full wave in the Star Wars 3.75 Vintage Collection... didn't help that it was a horrible rainy day and I was under the weather (no pun intended 🤒)
    The most significant thing I wasn't impressed with was Professor Huyang..... what a disappointment, albeit you could already tell from the publicity photos! 🤔😏 O.O.K 👌

    OOK- maybe it is time not to order everything Hasbro puts out for figures? I say this as a man that has freed myself from the “Hasbro Release Train” and now I only buy what I like. Freed up lots of space and my pocket book.

      I've done exactly the same. I've stopped ordering full waves and just cherry pick the figures I really want or like. This wave I just bought Huyang and that was only because Amazon had on pre-order for £10, had it been full price I wouldn't have bothered due to the incorrect colouring.

      I did it 2 years ago. I sold over 200 figures between black series, marvel legends and dc multiverse. Now i have a simple rule, i only buy the definitive version of my favourite 5 or 6 characters from a franchise. Its so freeing, no more failed toy hunts, no more pre orders, no more extortionate secondary market prices. Vote with your wallets people, its all these companies understand!!

      ​@@billpaulk1058 Fully agree. Have recently had a big clear out after realising I'd bought things I wasn't even that into. Liberating and freed up funds/much needed space for things like a pre cyborg Grievous that had been on the list for a while. Also, nice work on the blue snag 👍

    @Emperorvalse Před 3 měsíci +4

    I agree with you regarding the uninspiring waves that have been announced. In fact I haven't ordered any since February and really struggling to do it.
    Instead I have spent money on older figures to complete my collection.

    • @ernestmuric6719
      @ernestmuric6719 Před 3 měsíci

      That's exactly what I've been doing. The money you save on undesired releases. Leaves room to purchase good carded figures that also are a safe bet if you ever want to sell them. I'm currently on the hunt for the sandstorm leia.

    Great video, I share your lack of enthusiasm for this wave. Only bought HuYang myself and the cheapo lazy paint job, or lack of, is very disappointing. The rest are uninspiring and I don’t need them although will pick up Mando fleet commander cheap in about a year 😂

  • @Knowledgeispowersheep
    @Knowledgeispowersheep Před 3 měsíci +3

    LOVE THE FIGURES!! I totally feel your stress about the collection keeps growing. Im so out of room, I just leave them in the pulse boxes. No sense for me to buy more star cases as they will take up more room.

  • @Mat25091
    @Mat25091 Před 3 měsíci +1

    Pretty sure they heard Huyang was in the show so just used his clone wars appearance. This is what happens when they rush things out. They say it takes 18 months to make a figure from first concept to shelf, so any time a figure comes out within a year of the show it’s from, you’re going to have this issue.

  • @jumpymclunky8790
    @jumpymclunky8790 Před 3 měsíci +1

    The postcards were gifted as a May 4th promotion if you spent £50 or over, I got them as I got TVC Count Dooku, Republic Trooper & Black Series Umbra Arc Trooper. It's criminal how Hasbro could release that Huang figure like that, if they not gonna be bothered painting him at all and just go with 'coloured plastic', why not use the colour which they again lazily chose to make the Mando N1 Star fighter in, again no proper paint, I see a pattern forming?

    • @OnlyOneKenobi

  • @JerJerRod1
    @JerJerRod1 Před 3 měsíci +1

    I skipped this wave. It's a pity that the TVC community didn't protest when they showed the first pictures of Huyang. Like me, most people probably thought that it's just a prototype and that the color will be corrected, but unfortunately it looks even worse than on the pictures. They should've given him the metallic paint that they used for Jango Fett. It's sad that Hasbro is so cheap now that they ruin great sculpts with the lack of paint apps.
