Great figure! LOVE that light sun roof! 😆😉 a total nod to the POTF2 days. Such a sinister droid enemy in the Star Wars universe!

Hi Nick hope you're recovering from covid. You mentioned the rescue playset Now I don't have the playset but I do have Grogu and Moff Gideon soft goods cape ( which I got loose on EBay ) and the figure itself is great but the dark sabre you get with Moff Gideon soft goods cape is rubbish its like really soft weak rubbery sort of plastic ! now I also have Moff Gideon in cardback with the plastic cape but it is unopened and on display in my spare room so I don't know how the darksabre accessory is for that figure but the darksabre accessory for the rescue playset I'm abseloutley Dissapointed in it if I'm honest
I cancelled my preorder with SAF … great figure but wouldn’t have anywhere to put him. I would’ve definitely been interested if the rescue set was Luke & the DTs👍
Looks nice. This inflation though is getting out of hand I went to Walmart today and looked at Duracell batteries they're like a dollar a piece. This inflation is insane a damn action figure is going to cost about 40 bucks for damn 3.75. This is getting scary.
If it gets to $40, either people will buy less or just quit collecting. Hasbro needs to take note. It's getting hard to live now, food, rent and fuel costs keep going up and that will cause many to leave the hobby.
Noticed on ebay some diorama builders are selling the elevator and door Luke emerges from. Really agree, the Pulsecon exclusive should’ve included 4 darktroopers, a Luke, an R2, and if they wanted to include Moff Gideon and Mando, at least update their leg articulation or make Mando’s armor vac-metal. Something. Glad we at least got Softgoods capes, but really the single card releases should’ve had softgoods. It’s always been my belief: figures with low articulation can have plastic capes but figures with loads of articulation should have softgoods capes ... and if we want to get really fancy ... softgoods capes with posable wire frames
I would buy 10 of these also. I have 2 Dark Forces "phase 2" Dark Troopers from 1998 "EU" and 2008 "Collector Coins gold" and then the "phase 3" build A Droid General Mohcc Walmart collect five 2-packs in my collection. I also have the 2008 "Unleashed" Dark Stormtroopers (and Phase 3 Clonetroopers) two of each. I agree as Emperor Palpatine commands, "GET THEM! GET THEM! ... They were too envious of all Star Wars collectors to leave unbought!"
Yeah pretty hard to film unless you have natural light..I pre ordered and received 4 of them..that cost AU$240..I don't think I'll get anymore..and yeah that light pipeing effect is great...the power up stations don't click in together either..cheers Nick🍺🍺🍻
Haven't got mine yet but absolutely loving these & want to grab a bunch of these & recreate Luke kicking their arse!! LoL I also have the Hot Toy Dark Trooper on order also grabbing the Mando Luke I just love that scene it was the best Star Wars scene I've seen since George sold the company!! It was the best TV moment! That scene & the Darth Vader Rogue One kicking arse in the corridor are 2 of my all time favourite scenes!! Love were getting the docking stations as well another cool touch. Hasbro really outdone themselves with this release turned out great! Only problem is there not cheap & I want so many of them. LoL This has to be one of the best figures of the year easily!!
That’s an awesome dark trooper figure. I’m picking up my Black series Dark Trooper this week. I think I have that same Dark Trooper fetish as you Nick 😂 Like you said there’s just something about them! It would be cool if they did a 4 pack like they did with the other TVC troopers… then I might have to cave and buy that.
I am far from an army builder, but I did get 4 of these. Need to have a little hallway set-up. Maybe combine them with the old POTF Death Star Trash Compactor playset? What do think?
Fantastic looking Dark Trooper! It's a cool feature, but I'm not sure for me personally if the glowing eyes effect is worth having that sunroof on the back of the head, that thing is an eye sore from the back, so I would never want him posed so the back of head is showing. Thanks for the review!
Hehehe, well.... I'm cool with it man coz I'll be having these guys face forward! 😉 as mentioned, just colour it in if it's a problem! Use dry wipe whiteboard pen too so you can remove in future if need be! 😉👌🏼
Nice! does look a good size too... Have two on order, but not really fussed about an army of them. Probably flog/trade the other one anyway - The Rescue pack, did that have an 'exclusive' spear too? (wouldn't fork out just for that either!)
Good review. Maybe just a couple needed and a mirror, as they did on ALIENS with the sleep-pods. Nice shout-out to Andy Serkis. I just finished listening to his Superb voice performance on the audio book: The Return of the King.
Awesome review Nick! Nice u got it early! So far I only have 2 on preorder. Because I was able to get them on sale at target. But gosh the price is very close to BS figure. 😩 like u said they should have made them in 4packs. I wonder if we play the long game. If the price would go down. 😆🙏🏽 but I would like a line of them with Moff 😉👌🏽
I’m loving my 6” BS Dark Troopers. Grabbed several of them for various scenes. My favorite setup is having one fly off with Grogu using a flight stand, flames blasting out of its feet. Got several of the Vintage iterations on order too. Glad to see you got one. That means we should be getting them here in the States before February. 😬
Definitely should, and it's a deluxe figure, why isn't it bigger? He's about the same height as Din Djarin but on the show he's a foot taller. What the hell Hasbro? You got it all wrong. This shouldn't be a deluxe figure.
At 60 bucks a pop for this 3.75 figure here in Australia. The evil greedy idiots at Hasbro can stick em in a pipe and smoke em. How can this figure be the same price as its black series counterpart. I know exactly why Hasbro do this. Because alot of us Star wars collectors subscribe to this extortion. And Hasbro know it.
I haven't ordered them yet. Pretty confident that there will be plenty left unsold and will go on clearance, that's when I go in and start buying. Not worth getting them at retail prices.
🤣 haha that was a short open.... didn't take much time to open THAT box even when sped up! Stay tuned though.... I'm getting some big vehicles soon including AT-TE... so that may take some longer assembly and so monkey music will be needed! 😉👌🏼
Got mine way after many others! They're just available here in the UK my friend.... I ordered mine with Hasbro Pulse UK. No special arrangements. 👌🏼 hope you get yours soon!
Hey Les, hope it's not. But I'll have to watch Abyss now to compare.... Did you mean stuff at start or at end of video by the way. Drop a time code to the specific section you heard.... thank you.
Hey OnlyOne how do you go about keeping your shelves clean from dust and all that? Just curious because at least once a month I'm having to take down every single figure to dust and it's so annoying so I was wondering if you actually have to do the same or if you have a nice different method?
