Another thing to add, you can also put Chopper's head on the left side of the phantom

@-howtomake999 Год назад

I noticed that too, it's great

@SaturnCanuck Год назад

Yes and what's interesting is the instructions say NOTHING of this!

@whiffyauto2108 Год назад

Thank you, I wasn’t sure if u could

@skyborne80 Год назад

I was all ready to criticize this Ghost for the lack of the upper turret being able to rotate, but it was totally worth it to give the set an interior.

@mfknbumblebee Год назад

I think there’s enough room to do both

@civilian-bystander Год назад

Jacen keeping Kanan's legacy of miscolored hairpieces alive

@chocolate_maned_wolf Год назад

oh wow, the interior is SICK for a small lego ship, they really crammed it in there somehow

@lukestarkiller1470 Год назад

I’m hoping as this ship becomes more popular that we could someday get a UCS version (probably not as big as the Millennium Falcon, more like the UCS Razor Crest), or at least a version on the scale of the regular Millennium Falcon sets with similar interior space

@RoscoeWasHere Год назад

I think it's pretty comparable to the Falcon. In my opinion, having the ghost come around every 10-15 years, but a new falcon every 3 means the Ghost will end up being a little more special to many people. Also, the colors are much nicer to see, and I think it's an altogether more interesting build. I own both, and I think the smaller size is much better for my shelves as well!

@h2owl205 Год назад

Yeah, I really don't understand the complaints about not having the rebels crew. This was marketed from day 1 that this was going to be based off the Ahsoka show. I don't know if they were just being extremely wishful with their thinking to the point where they tricked themselves into thinking that's what this was going to be, but it really is unfair that some people are dismissing this model solely because they convinced themselves it was going to be something that Lego clearly stated from the jump that it wasn't.

@modderhoop2058 Год назад

Personally i would witch out the blue engines with the transparent orange pieces. Other than that good looking set in general. Just wish the underside was a bit better and the turret could rotate. €160 is doable but definitely feels expensive for its size imo. I would wait for a sale and pick it up closer to €100 down the line.

@RustyToaster Год назад

It's a bummer that since the ghost is less popular, Lego isn't willing to make one the same size as the falcon, when it should really be bigger.

@mizukage7911 Год назад

Love the review as always! Great build, I think the size is fine. It would have been nice if they added a few pieces to close up the bottom gaps like you said, but thankfully it seems like its pretty difficult to see the underside of the ship during display. The minifigs could have been a bit better here, 3 full figs + a mini fig and a droid is not great value, especially when two of the full figs are random characters no one really cares about but oh well, the Hera fig is amazing

@RailynVGC Год назад

Thank you so much Jang for your consistently honest reviews. It’s always insightful and helps me make an educated purchase.

@distantnemesis1593 Год назад

there’s no differences in this thing that could prevent it from being a rebels-era ghost right? like how the sequels falcon had a rectangle radar dish, etc

@siobibble9078 Год назад

The cgi model in ahsoka is the same one they used in rogue one and tros. So no. (Well technically There are slight differences between the animated design and live action design, like the sandwiched grey greabled area in the middle of the ship. But that’s only because they added more detail to the live action model. Canonically it’s supposed to be the same design all throughout)

@Gzilla313 Год назад

Only difference is this is Phantom II, so if you want early Rebels you'd need to MOC a Phantom I, but Phantom II is from Rebels. Also I figures are unique to the Mandalorian era.

@SaturnCanuck Год назад

In the Ashoka show the Ghost is WAY to plain and grey, while the animated (and this model) is far more colourful

@KenTails Год назад

I really appreciate the interconnected interior, it does feel like a big boost in believability. Including/even the bottom lamps, the fact that you can throw figs into the ship via those... it just makes it feel like an actual functioning vehicle of the minifigs' world. The build's very attractive overall. I wasn't a fan of the Ghost in particular, but having seen it on screen, I feel rather tempted... there are just too many attractive sets (mostly higher-end) coming out lately, whew!

@hbtdawgz1688 Год назад

This set really looks good. I will probably be waiting for Amazon to have a sale or for Lego to have x2 points. The Jacen hair thing, they probably just gave Lego an image of the kid in costume without his hair/wig green.

@rajingcajun488 Год назад

I totally understand why it doesn’t come with the old crew, but it is nevertheless somewhat disappointing for the people who are mostly happy to get this set as a way to make up for not having had access to the original. Hopefully we can maybe get a smaller rebels set or two over the coming years that could come with some of those figures, particularly if the Ahsoka series increases Rebels nostalgia

@lukestarkiller1470 Год назад

Yeah the problem is a lot of Rebels fans are just getting old enough to buy their own sets, most were not when the sets were actually being released, so lego really should be marketing to that group now but they aren’t

@Gzilla313 Год назад

The only one needed is a new Zeb. All the others are reasonably priced on secondary market.

@thepartydontstoptilliwalkin Год назад

I hope Lego keeps making good use of interior space. Been wanting this for decades.

@LostWhits Год назад

First Ghost had the wrong colour hair for Kanan, Second Ghost has the wrong colour hair for his son Jacen. Not surprised, but curious if they will rectify it later.

@FireheartSamurai Год назад

Yeah but Disney/LucasFilm doesn’t give much info to the Lego Company when it comes to making Lego Star Wars sets. Since the Lego Company seems like information leaks from them at odd times.

@stairmasternem Год назад

Love this thing. The techniques to get the overall shape are cool. I do wish the cockpit was different, it’s real weird to only have Hera fit up there. This is the one SW design I would buy a UCS of. It really needs it.

@nym5qu17 Год назад

I'm not a modern star wars guy at all but these new sets are killer.

@UkesofHazzard Год назад

Hehe. Just built this last night, and when I saw the large gaps my first thought was "I bet Jang's gonna call those out". Still pretty odd. Seems like it wouldn't have taken much to fill them in a little better. 🤷‍♂

@shermietubevt Год назад

I'm really happy with how this ended up! Thank you for your review! I always consult your reviews before making big Lego purchases myself, just to make sure they're worth it.

@cocobill0077 11 месяцев назад

Love the meiloorum fruit Easter egg in the crate, such a great episode IMO

@filmfan2004 Год назад

This has to be my favourite set of the year I know for the price and the figure selection it's a little lack luster but as a true recreation of the classic 2014 set I unfortunately missed out on it's truly one of the sets of the year

@thatmattmcd Год назад

Thanks Jang! I missed the 2014 Ghost so I'm going to grab this one. Given the popularity of Ahsoka, and enduring fan interest in Rebels, I wonder if this model is a taster or prelude to a forthcoming UCS version that could both upscale in size and perhaps boast both sets of crews as figures. Probable? Enough gas in the fandom to warrant such a set?

@gregm963 Год назад

I would like this better at $140 like the Razor Crest. I know this has more pieces but they seem to be similar bulk. At least you don't have to buy two sets to get the whole ship.

@katesandoval9451 7 месяцев назад

Jang never fails to make good content

@jeffenix769 Год назад

I would appreciate it if anyone knows, how I would find advice/directions in modifying the Ghost to add the front cargo bay? Excellent review and I’m looking forward to adding this set to my. Collection.

@defenderprime8046 Год назад

Pretty cool new Lego Ghost, worthy as you say, Jang, I think I'm gonna rewatch your review of the first Ghost from 2014 to have a better comparision between the 2, like the interior space. In all, very nice set, if a bit high at the price range, but quite desirable for fans of Rebels as well as the Ashoka series.

@nukers1234 Год назад

I'm not sure if Lego is marketing kids or actually us adults when i see what they releases in the different series :p

@rogerhalt3991 Год назад

I consider this a play set

@Rocket1377 Год назад

These characters and this ship were originally from the Star Wars Rebels cartoon series, so I would say this set appeals to everyone.

@antonisauren8998 Год назад

Those NR soldiers are completly background extras in the show. I assumed they'd have some role based on lego figures.

@M.rasmodius Год назад

Hi, jang! I love this ship, the ghost is my favorite star wars ship! I have been watching your channel for a long time and love these reviews! Expect me to be buying this haha.

@NorthCountryOutdoors522 Год назад

just got this a week ago, what a build, its a lot bigger than i thought it was

@josephharrison5639 Год назад

I love this, one day I hope we get a ucs version

@warrennewman5325 Год назад

Looks amazing fantastic set great review injonied your twich ghost build last ngt was fun

@parallax88 Год назад

Any opinion on which Ghost and Phantom you prefer Jang? I'm fairly mixed. I'll be getting this upgrade though there is something about the original I prefer. Having both on a shelf seems like a solid option.

@RhitonYT 11 месяцев назад

Should I sell my old Ghost / Phantom 1 & 2 to buy this instead?

@NoBettaFeta Год назад

How small it was compared to the Falcon was my first thought after finishing it up as I never had the original set. I wish it was a good deal larger for the price.

@hllyenaylleth9576 Год назад

Nice Christmas Story reference

@octavio2274 Год назад

As someone who owns the 2014 ghost should I buy this new one?

@blammers Год назад

I wish this whole thing was twice as big. Somewhere between this size and full UCS minifig scale.

@luisemoralesfalcon4716 Год назад

This is basically a 2 in 1 set.

@Mr_Noodles503 Год назад

Probably my favorite lego star wars set, thanks for the awesome review Jang!

@drell4153 Год назад

Glad I used my lego points on this totally worth the discount I got on it because of it!!

@Imperialofficer07 Год назад

Oh god, I was going to say for $160, if they didn't throw in a kitchen sink into the deal, but someone beat me to it. Dang it, they already knew.

@DJ.KyloRen Год назад

Am I out of the loop or is that a new skin tone for the Officer Hawkins minifig?

@darthprime4916 Год назад

I can’t wait to get this.

@leg0liver194 Год назад

Cool spaceship. I don't like the top turret can't rotate. And not the canopy sticker - uuhh. Otherwise is nice, but too expensive.

@andryuwesker2590 Год назад

Honestly it's doesn't look like a minifigure scale. Like Razor crest Collectors scale , the only way to do justice to the ship of similar size. With interior. Even the phantom looks oversized. Hope for 18+ wariant )))

@michaelgjrjvebs Год назад

This set makes me sad the t-6 isnt as quality of a ship

@Gzilla313 Год назад

Buy Ghost for the ship and T-6 for the figures.

@SkullGrin-s7y Год назад

Oh no, where'd Suletta go?

@satellachannel6423 Год назад

Great set (and great ship overall). Thank you for the review. But yeah, like you said, Lego is dropping the ball on various aspects and we decide if we want to accept it. I don't. For the premium price they ask, the sets have to be PERFECT. Ship is too small for the price and in comparison to the latest Falcon. Jason's hairs are inaccurate, i dont care what happen behind the curtain, ultimately we pay for it and this is a fail. Windshield/canopy should be printed and opaque.

@empatheticrambo4890 Год назад

I do think the old one is pretty amazing, but this ain’t bad at all

@nobblez Год назад

Shouldn't Chopper have a different droid leg? They made a big deal out of it in the animated series.

@jaygilbert3567 Год назад

Great set

@EvanMoon Год назад

Yes

@matthewboggs9382 Год назад

Nice review

@planetdee3587 Год назад

I like this ship but question to the group, the Ghost, Razor Crest or Millennium Falcon? To purchase as to own one ship. And not based on legacy or anything but based on having a fun ship for playing with and displaying.

@5xmasterx548 Год назад

tough. I think the figure selection of the most recent falcon and this ghost aren't great, based on the popularity of the characters. But, the razor crest has great figure selection. If you only mean the model, well the ghost has a detachable ship, which the other two don't. The falcon has the best interior by far. The razor crest has a lot of cool little details. When it comes to display they're all equal tbh. Maybe ghost because it has more colour. Except the Solo falcon looks pretty cool as well.

@lbricks7631 Год назад

I just think the underside of the ghost should have been expanded so there would be room for crew quarters and the loading ramp at the front.

@palpatinerocks3260 Год назад

Can the old Phantom II fit on the back?

@christophweber464 Год назад

Too bad we don't get discounts on this here in Europe, because it's an Amazon exclusive....

@planetdee3587 Год назад

If somebody can answer this, in the back interior there are 2 gray pillars with black curved tops. Can those be removed or do the support the roof? I want to buy this model but I want to make space for at least one bed on each side but preferably two bunk beds if I can.

@AmethystPlays1999 Год назад

Like father like son. Kanan had the wrong colored hair in the original Ghost set

@karrde593 Год назад

The frustrating, maddening, desperate issues with the sets being cheap ive noticed is correlated with their licensed sets? At least with star wars and jurassic. It must be a nasty soup of them knowing its going to sell anyway vs licencing fees vs their own reading of the quality of the upcoming tv media (why make huge product lines for flopped tv).

@chrispepoy278 Год назад

❤ thank you 🙏🏻 for another fantastic video. You’re the best on RU-vid. Even though the blue exhaust is not accurate.. omg 😱 I love it!

@christinelucus3485 Год назад

I was also disappointed in the size, I thought it would be a little bigger. Jacen’s hair is a huge mistake but other then that it was a really fun build though, and it looks so much like the ghost does in the shows.

@reventonrowe6111 Год назад

Looks good. But $260 AU for this is absolute daylight robbery

@skvltdmedia Год назад

Value is honestly being

@michaelreilly7106 Год назад

How can Lego fit two figs in a ship as small as the phantom but they can’t fit two figs in a Jedi ‘shuttle’? And for some reason I thought this set was already $140. I might wait till it drops or not even get it at all. Lego has so many other great sets coming out.

@Benjamin0119 Год назад

That's a pretty good rendition of the Ghost and Phantom II. It's unfortunate about the sticker. That really should have been a print. Chopper's head is too bright. I think it should be dark orange. Whoa $160 is way too much for this! It's not THAT big.

@Rocket1377 Год назад

Yeah, the old Chopper minifigure was more accurate.

@thedeegee1601 Год назад

Man, that doesn't look like a €170 set at all!

@2MC2L Год назад

The set looks amazing!

@RCmies Год назад

It's way overpriced in Europe. This should be 120€ set. Hopefully the retail price will fall somewhere around that. It looks really cool from the top and I like the inclusion of the Phantom, but I don't think I'll get it unless the show really convinces me to do so.

@aliasangelalias Год назад

LEGO never want to try... sigh.... Enough with sticker sheets already.

@noahrock15 Год назад

Me when I saw this ✋😑👌

@estebannavia417 Год назад

Awesome review! Why doesn't this guy get free lego sets to review?

@jolemaire6629 Год назад

It's too small for the price and for what it should be.

@ShayanQ Год назад

At that price i was hoping for a more ucs style ghost, but as a rebels fan I'll settle for what we get

@skinnyj123 Год назад

A ucs ghost would easily be $800 if not more

@nauscakes1868 Год назад

One thing I really hate about modern Lego is how they have so many gaps inside ships/planes/vehicles. I remember as a kid, when I'd have a ship or something, I could just dump all my minifigs and their weapons in a compartment, and then carry it around with me, and all that shit stayed inside the vehicle. But now, modern Lego (last 10-15 years) all have crazy gaps inside their vehicles. Like I promise if you dumped a fist full of accessorizes in this thing, and then carpooled it around between houses or to a friend's place, you'd be leaking pieces the whole way. And that's just not right!

@Legomyegoorj Год назад

Lucasfilm’s fault regarding the wrong hair, not Disney. It’s Lucasfilm

@Gzilla313 Год назад

It might be neither. When Jacen was in the episode I thought he had black hair and didn't see the green hue until they released a character poster the next day.

@charlesmamon8516 Год назад

love the end analysis. Only the best is good enough, or stop lying about that being a creed. I definitely boycotted, Disney, Batman/DC and overwatch sets because of the poorly opaque paint jobs

@superlee091 Год назад

Nowadays, if a minifigure gives me a wow factor as first impression, it's 90% most likely not an official LEGO.

@Basswave_ 11 месяцев назад

$250 AUD…

@JANGsLEGOreviews 11 месяцев назад

Couple dollars cheaper then the US price.

@GuanoLad Год назад

People keep mentioning that Jacen has green hair, but my colour-blindness must be coming into play because I can't see any green in his hair on the show. To me it looks as brown as this figure's does.

@thork6974 Год назад

No fault to the Lego designers, but is this not the most generic-looking ship in all of SW? I guess it's supposed to be their version of DS9's Defiant.

@owene2530 Год назад

I want this so badly, but the fact that its mostly white deters me from getting it, I'd like to display it mounted on a wall and all the sunlight it'd get would turn it yellow fast

@jamesshepard3 Год назад

This looks like a fun build, but man I think that The Ghost is so ugly. If not that, then boring and uninspired. That Hera minifig is great though!

@alterego2275 Год назад

Sadly this is as overpriced as Justifier last year and minifigures are so much worse.

@Remember_Bubblebutt Год назад

The only thing that needs improvement is the gun swivel. Everything else is pretty great, but we should definitely get a USC Ghost sometime.

@arcadiajrsmith439 Год назад

two thing i dont like in this set 1.a lot of stickers 2.not printed top windshield cockpit

@JoeyPeligro69 Год назад

Love this set. Would’ve been even greater if those panels on each corner could flip up to reveal a bed or table or something

@j1t176 Год назад

man, a little more budget and i'd almost call this a UCS with how beautiful it looks

@Vaeshkar Год назад

I don't like the bottom of the ship. A lot of holes. Could use 20 to 40 more pieces. Older model did it better. But yes I also like the Ghost and loved building it.

@hiseval4281 Год назад

Thank you Jang for being the only Lego reviewer I've seen so far who doesn't immediately assume the larger lower window is the cockpit! Was so happy to see you put Hera in her proper piloting position! :D

@rogerhalt3991 Год назад

I get that there’s a lot going in the internal build but it would be nice to see it a little bigger. That or the sale is $90- £100 based on the amount of stuffs

@Brikkyy13 Год назад

Built this set today, absolutely love it. The underside leaves a little to be desired and I would have loved more figures but the ship is excellent. Cashed in the last of my VIP points and got it for $80AUD, not sure if I would have liked this set as much had I paid full price.

@lordly123 Год назад

£150 is actually more in $ than the Euro price of $182.12, and £150 is 187.14, which is atrocious conversion. Going from the price in dollars, it should be at most £130 and €150.
