  • I actually went into this review not expecting much, it being the fifth versions of both C-3PO and Chewbacca we've gotten in the Star Wars Black Series and a lot of reuse, but I'll be danged if Hasbro didn't improve on both. Bring on more The Empire Strikes Back figures!

    The Target exclusive 3PO with Babu Frik also has the elbow articulation from 4-LOM. The rear head plate is also removable on that one to show wire details in the head.
    Now we just need an Episode 1 3PO that's ONLY wires.

    The rifle's new. It has a longer clip & doesn't bend up at the front end, like some of them do.
    Also, Chewbacca's bandoleer strap/ pouch is different too. And it's made to fit into his body, so it lays flat an stays put under the fur from his head, too. All in all an excellent package with 2 great figures that you can use any way you like!
    Great vid! 🤖👽🧐❗

  • @MarkyD1967
    @MarkyD1967 Před 4 lety +5

    This Chewy has one less stomach swivel than the other ones so that could be why it’s just a bit shorter. I think all the other ones have two stomach swivels (edit: @ 10:33 the Solo Chewy only has 1 torso swivel too, and he appears to be the same height as this one). Also, in the movie C-3PO is transported around with his right arm attached, so for accuracy sake that’s how I have mine situated in his net. Great review as always!

  • @prophet924
    @prophet924 Před 4 lety +5

    I love this set. It is my display piece. I’ll borrow the fully put together 3PO if I need it. I am realizing the shelf space is going away. It’s nice because it’s like a droid holster. Holds all the pieces in one place.
    This Chewbacca is alive in sculpt and paint just because of the eyes. The other figures look okay with the non-real D paint figures. But those eyes take this to another level. I know they will do this same figure down the road, maybe a tweak here and there. I’ll buy that. But I’m gonna get a bit more picky.
    All these previous 3-PO and Chewie figures may become custom fodder. I want the rude white droid, that silver one in Phantom... sure. I want Black Krrsatan and he’s unlikely to be made. I have a few Chewie figs to try that out.
    Great set. Should have been $40.

    Ok. I got this 2 pak figure. And yes it's the redo Chewie and 3PO, but I knew that going in.
    At 50 bucks it's a bit pricey but this is the way to use older sculpts tweaked a bit to sell and then have more cash to make other newer sculpts.
    I get it.
    The 3PO in the bag over Chewie's back is a good scene from Empire and I am ok with that too.
    That said...
    I will not buy anymore Chewie's till they make one with soft 'fur'.
    And I am done with C3PO's period.

    also if you decide to pose him that way in the netting. you may want to give him either his right arm or left one on his torso like it was in the movie.

Since Chewey has the screaming face and 3PO is gonna be taken apart and on his back, I don't need the better articulated one wasted. I swapped the silver right foot for the netted 3PO and the better articulated 3PO will stand next to my R2. :)

    It’s not worth $50 bucks.

    They have never made a decent likeness of Chewie. They always give him a dumb look on his face.

    NOOP! FAIL! BIG FAT SUCKEROO!!!!
    $50 and it misses THE only reasons to have this..
    CHEWY HOLDING 3-PO's DISEMBODIED HEAD (which is the WHOLE REASON for the hanging bangs on Chewy's forehead and the look on his face) AND PUTTING IT ON BACKWARDS!! If I can't pose these scenes this is CRRRR-AP.
