That chrome on the MAFEX helmet is so striking. Every time I see it I'm reminded of that scene in TFA where Kylo looks over at FN-2187 and the flames from the burning village are reflecting off his helmet. I thought I was happy with my Black Series Kylo Ren, but now I'm thinking I might need a MAFEX one to do the robe swap on...
Oh man, I forgot about that scene, that's perfect. I'm a huge fan of chrome so this totally works.
And now you've made me change my mind and want to get the Mafex Kylo. Thanks Robo. I hate money anyways
Heh, we live for the plastic, man, money is a fleeting memory. You're welcome or....I'm sorry.
Hahah it's all good. At least now I know a perfect Kylo figure exists
🤣🤣🤣
Love these sort of DIY videos. I know it sounds ridiculous buying multiple figures to get that "perfect" one and normally we shouldn't even need to do that, but the whole mix and matching/customizing aspect is always fun and it's practically a part of the culture now.
Exactly, I've been doing at least tiny fixes to most of my figures since the late 90s, it's just second nature now to at least think about what could be better and how to fix it. Even when the figures are expensive.
To make the Kylo Ren figure even better, you can use double-sided tape and place it on his head and position the hood however you want and it'll stay flat and in place.
That's not a bad idea at all....
Personally I like the looser robe. I don’t know why. It could be rove generally look cooler when loose. It could be something with posing and stuff. All I know is that I prefer the mafex robe.
This is marvelous! I didn't realize the Black Series belt was removable!
Haha, I didn't either!
...so it's basically the same fix we all did with our SHF Kylo.
Pretty much, heh. I've spent so much money on Kylo...
Robo I literally did the mod today after my girlfriend got me the Mafex Kylo yesterday! Luckily for me the Walgreens I frequent still had the mask-less Kylo. And boom! Got my perfect Kylo! Thank you for this idea sir!
I did something similar to my SHF Kylo. I bought a cheap second hand Black Series; and transferred the robe to the SHF. It's one of my favorite figures now.
"When I get pi$$ed off, I modify." --Customizing with Robo, The Fwoosh. LOL!
I knew this was coming, I saw the review yesterday, and thought before I watched it, oh boy he's going to hate it, then you were back and forth, and today I thought.. hmm.. I bet he is gonna customize it.. and here we are.. haha
Haha, I'm nothing if not predictable!
best way to bend joints or things that are all bent up, take a big cup of of water. put in the microwave for about a minute on High. put the effected part in the water for about 20 seconds..BOOM magic
thanks for this lil vid tho Robo, i do like the mafex rob only because the material looks more accurate to his actual robes as oppose to the black series, but at the end of the day. black is black lol and kylos wardrobe probably wont change much in The Last Jedi.
but i mught still go out and buy a black series just to get the robe lol
It's kind of funny that both High End Kylo's end up having their 'soft' goods replaced with Black Series stuff
Heh, yeah, but at least the Black Series stuff is pretty cheap if you find the right deals.
Good fixes man. I'm still good with all the original Mafex materials though. I like how I can mold the hood with the wire (my wire doesn't poke out), and the pose I have him in doesn't make the robe look quite as baggy, but what you've done looks just as fantastic in my opinion. Cheers Sir Robo!
Nothing wrong with that at all. If my wire hadn't poked out I probably wouldn't have been so gung-ho to switch it, but that just added to my frustration factor. I love the wire too. I may have to keep tinkering here and there. Thanks!
Thanks for this, I made the switch with Black Series robe and belt, then went a step further and put the Mafex counterparts on the Black Series Kylo Ren (unmasked) and it now looks better too. Unlike you I had no trouble with the BS belt on the Mafex figure - it went on easy and snapped right on.
Kyle spent Father's Day solo
You make me want to spend money. I vowed to keep myself within the Figurarts, artfx and black series...and here I am ready to spend.
Love all your reviews btw.
Haha, thanks, and I'm sorry.
clip off both hoods and swap and add the mafex hood to the swbs robe, just super glue them together and hide the seam of super glue with the scarf!
Hmm, I think that would work, but the materials wouldn't match up.
Dont know if it would be to many layers but Mabye try fitting the swbs hood over the mafex hood. I remember the hood being really thick in the movie, and the swbs hood being pretty thin. And even if the texture dont mach, i would still swap them, the swbs hood takes so much away for an otherwise amazing fix/mod!
would.be
I like the follow up vids. Not new to collecting, but I've been wanting to customize some of my figs alot, and you giving extra with tips is great. youre quickly taking my top spot for toy review guy Robo!
Heh, glad you're digging the fix videos, may try to do more when fixes are needed.
This vids with the tweaks and fixes are really cool and I enjoy them very much, it's something very different from the others doing reviews. Great job. Also please can you tell me the name of the song that plays when you are doing the heating process?
It's a free CZcams music download called Battleground. And thanks, I may try to do more tweaks and fixes in the future!
Dang it- I was content on one day getting the Figuarts Kylo and robe-swapping, but now I need to find a Mayfex one. They're almost the same scale, so shouldn't be a problem fitting in with the SHF line
The MAFEX is taller but dang it, it's so nice I recommend getting it. Can't help it.
Damn it. I just did the shfiguarts black robe switch and loved it so much that I wanted it that way but after seeing this, I am filled with regret... probably just gonna stay with the figuarts.
Nothing wrong with that. The only reason I don't go with the Figuarts for my main is the height, I just have too many Black Series and models flanking it, makes it look short. I do have to admit the MAFEX has more range of movement, but both with the Black Series robes? It only comes down to height.
Ugh. I was really hoping this wasn't going to look that awesome. The chrome is what gets me it's just so crisp. How do you think it'll look with the original Kylo robe? that's the one I have.
It should be about the same, just a little bit longer at the bottom.
The Fwoosh Thanks! Your videos are pretty kick ass. You seem to have the right attitude towards collecting, at least in my opinion.
Thanks for that. I feel that hobbies should be fun, and if I'm not having fun, it's not worth doing it. Sure I'll get a little upset every now and then at money spent on something not up to par but for the most part, I do this because I enjoy it.
Hey Robo. Fwoosh five Friday idea for you. Jedis Thant need to be in 6inch form! Would love to know your thoughts!
Sorry for butchering their names😂Mine would have to be:
5. Shak tee
4. Young Asoka (green and yellow sabers)
3. Star killer (force unleashed)
2. Kai udi Mundi
1. Eth koth
Runner up would have to be Ezra (season 3)
try putting heat on the belt, and ever so slightly stretch it enough to close the gap
Damn it, that's brilliant, I wish I had thought of that. And I had the heat gun out ten minutes before that too!
The Fwoosh that's what made it click in my head the heat gun!
Awesome fix and I have the same robe issue and because of that it was never in my display cabinet, but now I am off to buy a black series online so I can do what you have done to yours.
Totally worth it. I knew there was a reason I've bought four or five Black Series Kylos....
Great tweek Robo! Looking good!
Thanks!
Oooh nice!! I have to try this when I get mine!
Yeah looks awesome. I'm going to pickup a blackseries kylo and do the robe switch. It's totally worth it..
It really is, it makes it ten times better.
woah!! this made the figure so much better damn!! Great review!!
It really does. I can't believe it worked, I figured the Mafex was too big and the SWBS robe was tough to get on the smaller SHF Ren. Nope, easy peasy.
The Fwoosh this shows mafex bodies are normally great!
Exactly!
I knew you would fix this for us. I've been waiting for the mafex to come out before I purchased any Kylo Ren figures. Now I will get the Mafex and the BS and do this. It does look good. Thanks Robo.
You're welcome. Although I always feel like I should apologize when someone says I talked them into spending more money, haha.
I'm an addict, I only have myself to blame.
I'd kind of like to see the MAFEX robe on the Black Series figure. I love it when you do these custom videos. My OCD prevents me from mixing and matching like this, but it's fun to see what works best.
Hmm, I didn't even think to use it the other way around. I figure it would look bigger still on the SWBS because of how the belt is tighter on the MAFEX than Black Series.
OMG ITS VICTORIA AND THE FWOOSH
why not just get a thread and needle to tac the fabric together where it pokes through. using glue on fabric doesn't work for too long
I had same quest as you! Following your tutorial as of now! My thanks!
I'm no Figuarts fan boy, so I guess I'm a purist. Need all 5 versions (I'm sure there are more, but I won't sleep). Looks like I'm getting a RoboKillah (Mafex) Kylo Ren to go with my RoboKillah (Mafex) Darth Vader. I'm sure there was something in the Bible about worshiping false prophets or maybe I'm thinking about Hellraiser's "Thou shalt not bow down before any graven image". I must be dammed for worshiping so many idols. The Fwoosh, The RoboKillah and the Holly Custom! It will be hard to fit him in without the Missus noticing. There are higher Gods in the household. I'd stick with your exisitng C-3PO as I'm sure he can be fixed. I'm still holding out for a Figuarts version.
Haha, wow, going to give me a big head. And yeah, I'm hearing good things about the new MAFEX C-3PO with BB-8 but I want to try to fix this one. Would save some money.
"I think I saw it yesterday, but that was yesterday"- Like everytime I try to use scraps to mod my figures.
Man, I was standing in front of the fridge with the door open the other day, wondering where my laundry was. Getting older sucks.
Well currently my laundry has it's own side of the room with the tape and everything...including the bathroom.
Maybe it's not us, perhaps a conspiracy *dramatically stares at a loose sock*.
I will go with that!
XD
Ironically I was trying to find an old cape to go with a new Star Wars figure I recieved in the mail loose after making my original comment...I think I jinxed myself.
Hey robo I just got my mafex kylo the other day and somehow the "potatoe sack" robe grows on me, all I did was just taking off its scarf and then it looks better, I know it has its extra thickness but if you took off its scarf and try to pull down the robe a bit (at least untill kylo's neck is a bit visible) it looks good :D oh and by the way mine doesnt have that wire problem so the hood goes well :D
I'll end up giving it another go after a while, like when we get the next Kylo or if I have some free time. Haha, free time....
why not also use the black series scarf too? it seems like it will fit the shoulders better since it's not as broad? Also debated on whether or not to get mafex version too since im quite satisfied with the original black series, the only thing i dont like about black series are the elbows and the saber (import sabers for kylo look alot better imo). Functionally i think the black series articulation does well enough so idk, although the unmasked head from mafex isnt too bad either.
I just like the sculpt and look of the MAFEX scarf more, just more detailed.
yes! thank you for your advice. really helpful 👍👍👍
Great video bro!!! You did a great job with him and this truly is the definitive Kylo Ren...
Yeah, super happy now, hopefully I can obsess over another character now, heh.
That looks real good! Know I'm rethinking whether I should get the MAFEX version or not...lol
Mine looks just fine after finagling with the hood and belt! 😺
Did you do something with the belt?
This fixes all my problems with it, can't wait until mine gets here now! Good stuff Robo!
It really puts it over the rest, I can't believe I'm liking another MAFEX figure so much now.
The Fwoosh Boba Fett and Kylo have redeemed them in my eyes! I have really high hopes for their Rey now!
Exactly, and the Joker I got was pretty nice too. I've also heard good things about the newer C-3PO that came with BB-8. So I'm with you, high hopes for Rey. And the new Vader.
I have the same wire problem with Vader's cape
That one's a little tougher, the glue might be a little more noticeable.
Sweet fix, but now I have to buy a Black Series Kylo Ren just to make the MAFEX version even better when I get a chance to get it... thanks a lot Robo! XD
is it possible to add some heat to the black series belt and stretch it, so that it fits better on him.
I'm going to give that a shot at some point. After a few days the belt seems to be pulling more and more, the gap is getting bigger.
Ok...now I need this Mafex Kylo too...
Robo you cannot not fix c3po. He must live again. I love your videos man. Keep doing em. I know this ones old.lol keep up the good work sir. I like to know what I am getting into when purchasing a new action figure. :)
One day I'll get around to fixing it, but it's the butt of so many jokes and a reminder that there were dark, dark times in the past, haha.
Is Mafex Kylo taller than Black Series? I really want that chrome mask and better articulation, but with a fitting robe! My newer/unmasked BS Kylo seems a little taller than my original BS, and their robes are slightly different lengths too. Which robe do you think would be best on the Mafex? Is the SH Figuarts robe somehow better? You mentioned not being able to find it or something.
Naw, the robe I had on the Figuarts was just a BS robe, I couldn't find it so I had to strip another BS of it's robe. Now I'm trying to remember why I had so many Kylos, haha. The original BS had a longer robe, later there was a revision to shorten it, and then the unmasked BS had some different stitching on it. They all fit the same though, it's up to your preference of whether you want it to be longer or floor length.
You can't remember why you have so many Kylos? It's because he's *awesome*! He's my husband. Fangirling aside >_> I think this might be the perfect shelf posing fun Kylo, he can hang out in front of the pretty boxes of the others! Maybe I'll pretend General Hux is cloning him trying to get one that won't destroy his ship, and that's why I'll eventually have 20 😂 Thanks for the awesome reviews!
You're welcome! And haha, true, I think I even still have some stashed away. I guess I'll someday need another robe, maybe when they change up his costume for EP8.
For your next Fwoosh Five Fiday you should do Top 5 Star Wars Clone Wars Characters that need be made in 1/12 scale
I hate to admit it but I haven't gotten into Clone Wars yet. I'm all over Rebels but I need to go back and catch up. And find time to do that.
The Fwoosh better hurry, Clone Wars is coming off of Netflix at the beginning of next month I believe. Don't know the exact date. Just an FYI
The Fwoosh forsure would love to see that. There are a lot of clone wars characters that could be great figures. Like hondo or maybe savage oppress
The Fwoosh im exactly the opposite. i into clone wars and then it wil be rebels :p
1plus0neistwo We need Cad Bane and Embo.
Hell yeah man! I had a feeling you would like the switch. I also got the 3p0 and bb8 two pack, it's a great set, haven't had any problems with either.
Gaaaaah, I have a feeling I'll need to grab that 3PO/BB-8 pack at some point.
The Fwoosh I just got C3PO and BB8. Very impressed. Mafex did a great job with these latest releases. The Phasma is incredible, i now prefer this Kylo thanks to the fixes. All about the height. Next for me is the SHFiguarts Han.
Lightningbc yes!! congrats on picking it up, I'm glad you liked the set!
Haha I had a hunch my comment about putting the black series robe on mafex would create the best kylo ren figure for your shelf! i still need save up to get me a mafex kylo ren!
Yeah, it really was a brilliant idea, thanks! Totally saved the figure.
it is done...impressive...most impressive...🤔
Now I'm wondering who will take the cake for the unmasked Kylo Ren version 😏???
Not sure on that front, it may come down to repainting one ourselves.
Hey fwoosh did you use the black series belt on the mafex figure or the mafex belt.Also does the mafex belt fit over the black series robe when it's on the mafex kylo ren
I used the Black Series belt. It's a super tight fit. The MAFEX belt is a loose, loose fit.
NICE JOB!! That looks fantastic now, changed my mind on this guy completely, now I think I might need to grab him
It adds a little to the cost, grabbing another SWBS Kylo Ren, but it's totally worth it. Especially with the MAFEX being a little cheaper than the upcoming SHF version.
The Fwoosh WELL worth the cost for that end result, and still cheaper all in then the figuarts unmasked version. For whatever reason that is so high priced. And still needs platform boots to fit in.
I want to say the unmasked Kylo SHF is an exclusive, might add to the cost. I totally forgot about that. Yup, MAFEX is the way to go. Gawd, how things change.
The Fwoosh It has to be an exclusive at that price, he doesn't come with anything else to justify it. Made it official, canceled my SHF preorder and grabbed the Mafex Ren. Right? How things have changed in such a short amount of time too. Its like they figured out the secret with their ESB Boba and have been lettin it ride since! I'm excited for their Rey now!
I have a couple of BS Kylos. This will be a great fix for my Mafex Kylo. Thanks for sharing Robo.
No problem, hope you like it on yours too!
nice fix. looks great now
couldn't you heat it with the heat gun not hairdryer and stretch it a bit?
I'm going to give that a shot, definitely.
Tobi the magyver of action figures!
How to take off it head safely? i never took it off before
The Black Series or the MAFEX? The MAFEX pulls right off no big deal. The Black Series needs a little bit of heat to soften up the head, then it should pull off.
wait, why is this combo better than the SH figuarts combo?
This Kylo is taller and truthfully, better articulated.
this somehow makes me think that medicom and hasbro are in cahoots, somehow it gave me the thought that medicom may or may not be in purpose, forcing us to buy hasbro blackseries kylo ren, just to make the mafex kylo ren looks better. in other words medicom helps the sales of the blackseries. lol :p
Haha, that's quite the conspiracy theory! Maybe Medicom is a shell company for Hasbro's overseas efforts?!
...Do I get the Mafex and a burner Kylo? Cause I really like this. Now about that head....
That head, yeah. I didn't even try to put it on there. And now I can't decide which one I want to try to repaint. I'm leaning towards Black Series though. But yeah, this combo is a winner. And burner Kylos are cheap.
+The Fwoosh I like the proportions on the BS head personally. The mafex looks small to me.
take the heat gun to the black series belt and stretch it out.
Great idea!
That looks much better. Hope you didn't lose too much sleep over it ; )
Haha, I'm doing pretty good if my biggest worry that night was over an action figure robe.
I think if I have this figure, I'll use the potato sack one on ML body.. I'm trying to make custom kylo using ML figure but that just me
The MAFEX robe should fit pretty good on a ML body, with the extra size and muscles.
Your main Kylo Ren until the Last Jedi comes out.
I know, I'm sure he'll have some kind of different, cooler look just to get me to buy more toys.
Welp, this comment aged poorly.
@@fragban5994 Tbh: You only really need the Force Awakens version (if it's like the S.H. Figuarts one where you can take all the robes off n' stuff), because Ben's base outfit is essentially identical in *all* 3 films of the trilogy, actually:
For the *S.H. Figuarts* one at least: If you take off all his extra bits and buy him an unmasked head off eBay or somethin': You pretty much have his appearance from The Last Jedi, and if you go even further n' add a hooded cape to that plus the repaired version of his helmet (or paint the all the cracks from that movie yourself) then bam: It's "Supreme Leader" Kylo Ren from The Rise of Skywalker! It's actually *very* handy, tbh (Only REALLY "needing" to buy one and then just tracking down extra heads and the cape) kinda means the TFA one is technically like the "be-all-end-all" Kylo figure, imo. Like: The only look you *can't* really replicate with this method is "Ben Swolo" (though I'm sure if you got creative you easily could if you wanted, I guess) and *maaaybe* "Redeemed" Ben... but I mean, other than that: It's basically all 3 main versions in one purchase! ̶W̶h̶i̶c̶h̶ ̶i̶s̶ ̶o̶b̶v̶i̶o̶u̶s̶l̶y̶ ̶p̶r̶e̶t̶t̶y̶ ̶g̶r̶e̶a̶t̶ ̶c̶o̶n̶s̶i̶d̶e̶r̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶i̶m̶p̶o̶r̶t̶ ̶f̶i̶g̶u̶r̶e̶s̶ ̶a̶r̶e̶ ̶a̶ ̶b̶i̶t̶ ̶e̶x̶p̶e̶n̶s̶i̶v̶e̶ ̶w̶i̶t̶h̶ ̶a̶n̶ ̶"̶M̶S̶R̶P̶"̶ ̶o̶f̶ ̶a̶b̶o̶u̶t̶ ̶$̶7̶0̶+̶ ̶e̶a̶c̶h̶.̶
*It's sure what I'LL probably be doing since I apparently scored myself a Figuarts one for frickin' C R A Z Y cheap yesterday, which I'm definitely thrilled about only having to pickup the one and being pretty much SET.* He may not be a Black Series, per say: But he's *absolutely* an "honorary member" of my collection now!
Hope my thoughts might actually help some of you guys out when picking out one yourselves, personally think it's nice to know that even if they aren't exactly "affordable" most of the time: You can still get away with having a really high-quality version of all three looks of his without breaking the bank (theoretically)!
What was the name of that song you used when you were heating up the light saber? It sounds familiar
They are both free songs from the CZcams creator studio. The first is Dewey_Cheedham_and_Howe and the second one, the one I use all the time for heat gun or dremel, is Battleground.
what about the figuarts kylo, not the #1 anymore?
Yea but why complain about a long robe when you can cut it ?
G10 senpai Can I cut it and then sew the edge and seam? I stated that I'm not a seamstress.
So now Will Revoltech release its Kylo Ren version??
I don't think Revoltech has released anything Star Wars in quite a while. They did the few they did and never came back.
hey mate! can I have a request?how does the unmasked head look in the body with the black series robe and no hood
MY 2 CENTS I don’t know if you’ve seen it already but I can send you a picture through Instagram if you’d like!
Nice fwoosh
How much u paid for the Mafex?
They are usually around $60.
3:59 that’s what she said
you gotta look for kukuciousburger on FB. his Kylo looks siiick af
Haha, good skills Robo. You've done well there and it looks great.
thanks for answering my prayers lol. I think I'll try this ;)
Do it, soooo good.
I had a cousin who handed me down some clothes ✋🏻
I grew up in backwoods Arkansas, hand-me-down clothes are the only clothes for kids!
The Fwoosh I grew up in lating America so hands down clothes are not only for kids. Thy beating that!
Haha, okay, you win!
*SIGH* Well... Guess it's back to empty wallet
Haha, it's a roller coaster ride for the bank account!
