And yet he suffers for our enjoyment! Such suffering no human should be exposed too! I cry help him! His despair is our own! For through his eyes are mine openly weeping!

Kamen Rider 1 It's even sadder to think one of the best toy compnies ever ended up as lame buyout by Hasbro which also fired all their superior toy designers.
It's sad how the original Kenner Millennium Falcon WITHOUT all the lighting and sound effects was actually a PLAY TOY. Seriously, you could place two figures in the cockpit WITHOUT contorting them, the rear roof lifted off to where you could position figures in the rear to play holo-chess OR have Luke take a pinata wack at the training sphere AND the top gun clicked as it swiveled! Of course, if you TRIED To fly that Falcon inverted the roof WOULD fall off. To make the NEW edition Millennial Falcon look worse, the original Hasbro Falcon also had working landing gear if I remember correctly! WERE the Hasbro Star Wars toys the greatest? Arguably no -- I got rid of ALL of mine and I even had the crappy radio control R2-D2 that broke within three months of buying it BUT they were clearly meant to be played with and enjoyed for however long it took you to destroy them!
My Falcon was from Micro machine and was roughly the same size but it would open completely and had 4 seat on the front for 4 people, had the main hold with the holographic game table (and the seats) and other things like the smuggling compartments. The upper part, when opened, had a huge spinning circular platform where you could attach mini-veicholes like Y-Wing, Speeder Bike atc, to simulate splace-battle. It was EVERYTHING I loved it and was full of characters, with C-3P0 with a leg on his hand, Han, Chewbacca, Lando, Leia, Nien Nunb a Y-Wing and also had a Mynock!!! This trash it's NOTHING compared to that!
Jesus I want a movie about you as a crazy fan! Would love to see you kidnap Harrison Ford and Mark Hamill along with the new people! Have them act out a better Star Wars movie while you sit in the back crying about how beautiful it all is and you make Kathleen Kennedy play the character of Rose! Cuz fuck her anyways😂
According to the packaging, the Millennial Falcon was supposed to come with Sons! It said so twice. But I didn't see any Sons! when you opened it. Is Han Solo the Sons!? Is he Enfy Nest's Sons!? Did the Millennial Falcon spoil the movie?
The only toy of value will be the single Rose Tico that Ethan doesn't end up buying and tossing in the trash. Kelly Marie Tran will make a fortune off of it... when she sells it to Ethan and he tears up the packaging and tosses it in the trash.
I always thought that the arms on the front of the _Falcon_ were like pincers that opened and closed to manhandle and move cargo? It is a transport freighter.
The thing is, the fans betrayed George Lucas... That's why we're in this mess. It's not Kathleen Kennedy's fault, or Rian Johnson, or JJ, or Disney, or SJWs, or any other boogyman. The fact of the matter is that the fans crapped all over George Lucas for 20 years because of the Special Editions and the Prequels. Deny it all you want. But it is very easy to find clips of George saying he doesn't want to make movies any more because he's tired of being yelled at by the fan base.... Congratulations Star Wars fans. You brought this on yourselves. And no amount of bitching about it on RU-vid is going to change anything.
Fuck Lucas. Nothing Disney has done will ever come close to the irreparable damage Lucas brought. He deserves every bit of criticism he gets, that insecure bag of shit.
Millenial Falcon that vibrates for the sex positive millenials who prefer hooking up to dating and forming a meaningful relationship. Just like the Disney Star Wars movies prefers simply copying the plot points of the older films to meaningful character development and good story telling.
I have been waiting for this. As the owner of a lot of SW toys over the years, I can say this is clearly among the crappier ones. What a colossal disappointment of a toy. I'll go back to haunting garage sales and craiglist looking for a sandcrawler is good or very good shape knowing that I'm not missing out on a damn thing. Thank you for taking one for the team, Uncle Ethan!
I just look back at the Kenner toys or the re-released versions of them(from the 90's) and those are legues above these cheep craps. I honestly wish that I could hunt down a perfect shape Y-Wing or B-Wing.
I've noticed that even the LEGO ones have seemed to decline. It's kinda sad really, considering the clinically insane quality of the constituent parts of those things.
I think LEGO has 2 problem: -Making overpriced kits now. You can't get anything that dose not cost an arm and a leg unlike in the old days where you could get something decent witouth spending insain amounts. -They don't realy get much to work off of. I mean many things are eather uninteresting or rehased.
I can openly admit to you that current LEGO themes are rather stale at this point. However, the pieces they come with are improving. Since they are construction toys, one can simply buy things for the parts and not for what they are. It's what I do. Yeah... About the price. On my side of the planet, all LEGO costs as much as it normally would in America. Had to live with them before I decided to move on to model kits with the promises of never having to worry about mismatched colors and equal customisation opportunities.
Construction toys, yes. But even than when you buy something you wanna build up the model that you have bought and disasemble it later on. And putting tugeather more complex ones are much harder and need more specific parts. Just to look back when the Phantom Menac came out and I was like 8-10 I could choos several cheep kits as well like a small droid transport ship(not the big one), naboo fighter,pod-race car and so on. They had a kit for basicly every consumer. Not just for the people who can "afford" it. And I can't say the same for the new ones.
Call me an easily-impressed pleb, but the way this Millennial Falcon lights up and makes roaring takeoff/landing sounds -- to say nothing of the "pew-pew-pew!" sounds -- seems like a toy I might have legit enjoyed as a child. At the very least, this one comes across as a toy made for kids (rather than thirsty SJW collectors), and one that kids might actually enjoy playing with (unlike, say, the incredibly pointless and boring Force Link wristband, or the majority of the Disney "SW" action figures, which are equally boring and pointless). All things considered, this one seems a'ight.
Sacré Bleu The Deadly Poke Of Zorro SJW collectors? Dude, if SJWs gave a rat's ass about collecting, these toys wouldn't be piling up in landfills. SJWs don't drop a cent on merchandise.
Sacré Bleu The Deadly Poke Of Zorro I could've agreed if it was like 55$, but for 100$ is utter overpriced trash. Not to mention that stupid bed cockpit. Compare this garbage to the new Jurassic World Colossal T-Rex that is gigantic and can swallow tons of toys. Much better quality and play value for anout half of the price, 54$.
:אנונימית אנונימי & Tushar Raj I guess I should clarify... • I was just speaking about the toy itself, not the price. I wasn't aware of the price ($100? Really?). Make no mistake, I wouldn't pay top dollar for this. If any parent were to buy this for their kid, it should *definitely* be at a discount price (and, considering all the clearancing going on, I imagine finding it cheap won't be too difficult). • I was referring to the small minority -- or literal handful, as it most likely is -- of SJWs (and other adult fanboys/girls) who enjoy Disney "SW" enough to buy the action figures and Funko Pop figures and such. They *do* exist, there's just not enough of them to make these toy lines profitable in any way, shape or form.
the han toy is not being held back. they know that the only character anybody is interested in is han, so they are forcing people to pay more to get it.
Andrew that’s what Androth is saying...the Han toy is there but they are forcing you to buy more junky toys to get him. And who says there’s a Jabba coming? Maybe they are holding him back for the sequel. Lol
I think a lot of details used to be painted or "we just didn't care about these things when we were kids when the original films were released." It's a bit of both, I think. Yeah, I don't remember ANY of my Hasbro kits (and I had the ORIGINALS from the first film) requiring all those stickers to be put on before I could play with them. They were PLAY KITS back then and some of the things DID break easily and, NO, the X-wing's wings didn't stay closed properly OR popped out if you played with it to be honestly truthful. They had their issues but NOBODY back then was thinking of these things as collectibles to be sold online or at auction 20-40 years later. It was not even a thing back then.
*removes hat* That poor Asian kid jumped out the factory window and slipped through a tear in the suicide net. That's why he couldn't put the stickers on.
I am so glad i finished my drink before I started watching this video. I can't afford to replace another gaming keyboard. I could salt my food with your videos! lol Love them! Keep up the awesome work EVS!
Dude, you practically tore the ship apart tearing that box to pieces! lol PS: Instantly recognized the roof pieces from a similar Millennium Falcon I had as a kid DECADES ago, back when the real Star Wars was a thing. These things haven't changed much since then apparently. EDIT: Did a google search for the original Millennium Falcon toy and it was practically identical, except for the new paint and front piece they added for this one.
Just looked up the original Kenner Millennium Falcon to see how far we've come, God damn these companies have no respect for children anymore. This stuff is garbage. I grew up with the prequels and those toys were even better than these
I frankly think Uncle Ethan should send his action figures to that guy in Australia who's launching home-made rockets in the Outback. He needs to see how far his water-bottle rockets will go with a payload. He's a gotten a few water-pressurized rockets to go up to 1700 feet. Wonder how high it would go with a payload of Rose's?
Bro...aside from the scaling issues with the figures, I really like that Falcon toy. I dig how the old school superstructure is underneath the newer, removable plates.
Looks like a lot of effort and hard work put into something that is crap. I don't get this new/old cargo hold on the front. I though the torpedo/missile tubes were on the front of the 2 points, which are now covered. Did he have to drop his cargo inorder to shoot the missiles?
As soon as you opened the box, your observation about the Millennial Falcon having the front part being detachable was confirmed! Will you please let us create a fund for the Jabba's palace toy, or the one with his chair?
Damn Ethan, this review had me laughing all the way through. You're a braver soul than I am, suffering through all of these latest toys so we don't have to.
I think Uncle Ethan has officially exceeded his last year's carbon footprint with all the trips to Wal Mart these past two months to get the new Star Wars action figures... HEy, if he doesn't want the figures, there's a guy in Australia who's shooting home-made water bottle rockets over 800 feet into the air in the desert! I'm sure he'll want to test those rockets to see how high they can take a payload into the air!
I am so amazed with the plastic bag that holds these small pieces. And the cardboard inside the box is so ad hoc and non plus ultra. Please, let me order 2 bags and 3 cardboards but without any ship please.
the little music you put during the sticker time was such an oppressive song, seeped from it that confident and happy 'meedzogeeniss' man, that predator of woman, that kind of man that dont answer to woman yapping by looking down. two thumbs up - Siskel & Ebert
