Star Wars The Vintage Collection Obi-Wan (Showdown) & Darth Vader (Duel's End) 2 Pack Review! 

am i the only one who’s bothered that his eyes don’t match up with the helmet’s eyes???

Definitely the best Obi-Wan figure ever made in 3.75'' so far in terms of his likeness to Ewan. And Vader, just tremendous! What a great 2 pack!

This looks so good, I’m happy I was able to get a pre-order for them. I think this might be my favorite look for Obi-Wan. And the Vader looks excellent

Vader’s eyes don’t line up with the lenses on the helmet. It’s more in line with the nose.

Great Review, Tim! I was very impressed by this 2 pack. Excellent packaging and fantastic figures. Definitely the best TVC Kenobi and Vader. I had a really good time reviewing them both. Thanks for another RAD Review!

Obi-wan’s head looks a little small compared to his shoulders/torso but overall looks great!

In my opinion this was a fantastic set to debut this new expression in the line with. Both figures are some of the best versions of those characters we’ve seen. I can’t wait to see what other 2 packs we get!

Another great video Tim. Really liking the look of both of these. Real improvement in Obi WAN’s face and the helmet and Ansking sculpt looks fantastic. Will make a nice little display 👍

Actually found this at a GameStop this week. Ultimately passed on it but informed a friend I had seen the two pack and he proceeded to go purchase it and GameStop staff said “this shouldn’t be out on shelves right now and we can’t sell it to you.” I’m still kind of meh about this set. There’s been a whole lot of figures that have dropped the past month or so and this just isn’t a priority to me.

Great looking figures, can’t wait to have them in hand

Shocked to see this today at Gamestop Canada. Picked it up for under C$46 after Edge discount.

Great review Bossk's Bounty and thank you for giving us the details of the great TVC line 3.75 inch action figures. My family and I enjoyed the Obi Wan series, especially my daughter!

As far as im concerned, if Black Series gets it then so should Vintage Line. The Vader helmet looks bigger because of the damage, the gapping tear makes it look bigger. Both figures are amazing regardless.

Just shipped my Pile of Loot. Looking forward to getting these in hand. Great review Bossk 🤙

I wish they would make another revenge of the sith line of figures

Looking at the two Vader headsculpts together, it seems to me that Hasbro did as much as they could to make the ROTJ one look like Sebastian Shaw while still acknowledging that canonically he's supposed to look like Hayden Christensen. If Lucasfilm won't let them base their sculpts on pre-Special Edition stuff then I appreciate the effort, at least. Kinda disappointed with this set though. It looks like it's impossible to get the eyes lined up with the mask properly, even though they match perfectly on every single promo photo Hasbro has put out. That's borderline false advertising and it's inexcusable in a premium-priced closed box set. Also I was hoping any new Jedi bodies would have layers of very thin plastic for the clothing clothing on the torso, so that they can hold the lightsaber with both hands in front of them much easier. There's not much point to a new Jedi sculpt if they can't hold their lightsabers any better than the old one

Receive it today! Amazing two pack!

Great looking figures! I'm really taken by the size difference of the two, the size of Darth is... ominous. Just like he should! 👍

I saw the black series Darth Vader of this. I got the one where his helmet comes off instead. That Darth Vader face reminds me of Uncle Fester from the Addams family. Lol

I agree they should have used an image of Vader with the battle damage to his helmet, but I can see their thought process in that the two cardbacks stand for their starting poses at the beginning of the duel. Even still, that image goes against the “duels end” parentheses as that image is more so the “duels beginning” 🤪

Ordered and waitin'. Can't wait for Revan.

Hasbro Pulse just notified me that this will ship soon for me....but their soon is one to two weeks from now, lol. I will be happy to get it whenever regardless.

I might grab this if it’s ever on offer. Just a shame about the Vader card back and on the Vader figure with his eyes out of alignment with his helmet

I was debating the vader at least if i could get him loose, but that height difference on the eye pieces.. hard pass. I still got a bunch of force unleashed damaged vaders they look much better imo, shame i can't just mix and match abit to get the updated body.

They really fumbled the Vader cardback. Could’ve been great having the broken mask fac.

Great review Tim! Was on the fence (as they’ve done so little for the Kenobi series) but that Obi-Wan looks amazing so it’s a must have. Would love to see a 4-pack of obscure Jedi: Cin Drallig, Tarados Gon, Sora Bulq, Rodian Jedi using this tooling

Due to the limited articulation, I think this set is perfect for displaying the "I'm not your failure, Obi Wan" scene on shelf, and leave the duelling poses for something like SH yogurts instead.

I would get if the box was also a diorama. It's like it was meant to be. How was it not. They had one job.❤

I don't mind the mis match up of the eye height, the OG Battle damaged Vader figure had very missmatched eyes (the lens was way too high compared to where it should be) so for me, it's not too much of a deal breaker. I can completely understand wanting it to be fixed in 2023. But Hasbro.

Cool review Bossk! 😁👍I wonder if the new Sabine Wren's helmet fits this Vader?... 🤔

I like the 2-pack, and would love to see more. UGH, I wish both of them came with alternate "force-using" hands. Especially since this was such a force-heavy duel.

I know what you mean about having three Kenobi and two Vader figures from this show without many other characters. Once upon a time, either one of these characters would have anchored an entire wave of figures based on "Obi-Wan Kenobi." These days a decent portion of the figures come from a Droid Factory 4-pack. A 4-pack of Inquisitors would have made a good Battle Pack back in the day.

Cool set, great review. Cheers

Oooh surprise late night twin pack review! You spoil us, Bossk!

Love the obi wan figure but Vader we have already the same figure 2 times this year with different heads

the kenobi looks great but I don’t want them to use that torso for other Jedi because they didn’t take into consideration two handed lightsabers poses. While it can be done, the resulting pose is a two handed lightsaber pose right up against the body. Hasbro needs to make that part narrower or use soft goods for the outer tunic.

Vader’s eyes don’t line up. The inner eye is way below the eye lens of the helmet. It looks goofy. Saw another review pointing that out too. It is what it is though. I’ll probably pose mine with Obi-Wan’s lightsaber embedded in the helmet gash anyway. Re: Obi, the sheen on his tunic almost looks like it’s carbonized…remember those gimmick TVC/BS figures? Could be your lighting, but it definitely has a shine to it. Good review!

I am getting this awesome 2 pack

Nice set, not a must, but if one of the stores i frequent gets it in stock i will probably get it.

Does anyone have a hack or a way to line Anakins eye with the Vader helmet? I'd like to get the figure but this is keeping from me buying it.

Great OBI-WAN cardback. It's crazy how early you guys get shit across the pond.

Hi BB, a question for Q&A show. Do you think that HASBRO may release from the excellent VISIONS show - 'THE DUEL' the KUROSAWA inspired characters and actual episode was some of the best STAR WARS in terms of design and energy the series has had in many moon. Love the 'show', a pleasure to watch when episodes drop,

I'm only annoyed that kenobi doesnt have better wrist articulation

Im curious would the rotj vader helmet fit on this new vader?

Really great 2 pack, both of these figures are excellent with the obi wan being probably the best obi wan in TVC. The only thing I don’t like is the Vader card back. The show has been out for a good year now, it would have made for one of the best card backs in the line to have a shot of Vader with the split in his mask on it.

You can adjust the eye line?

I'll be getting these figures soon I hope

Not a fan of the 2-pack: they raise the price to $20 per figure and don't eliminate any plastic packaging. I don't care about the plastic issue, but why make the bubbles and then put them in a box? Most carded collectors are going to remove them to display, making the 2-pack format completely pointless.

Great set for display really

Hoping that torso on Obi can be used for a new buck Jedi

i had this set in my hand at gamestop so i cancelled my amazon preorder and then when i went to pay the guy said it was street dated and couldnt sell it to me. big sad

Nice video, as usual. It would have been useful to have seen how the new Obi-Wan figure compares to the two previous releases from the new series, as you did with the Vader figure. I was a bit surprised you didn't mention or notice the position of the eyes on the Vader figure that doesn't align with the eyepieces - this is a big drawback for me. Lastly, you said we have had no other figures from the series, but we did get Reva (3rd Sister), Teeka (Jawa), the Purge Trooper, and soon to come, the Grand Inquisitor. Minor quibbles. Keep up the good work.

That looks like a great two pack. They do need to make more characters from that series like Luke and Leia. And maybe their mother and father and Owen and aunt baroo

Vader looks truly demonic.

I'm waiting for the clearance price, I don't really need these two figures.

Either vader looks to big or obi-wan looks to small? The scale doesn't look right when you put the 2 figures side by side?

Seeing as the whole helmet is removable, is it possible to rotate the helmet forward so his eyes line up with the eye lenses on the helmet?

do a video about all the new darth vader figures including the new 40th year return of the jedi deathstar 2 vader

Is TDT still your fave? I know they're all essentially the same as that one with add ons. All pretty amazing imo

great video Bossk keep it up :D

I’m happy that they changed obi wan to Chuck Norris

Great set but more price gouging from Hasbro.

What do u think b?

It's a shame as that Vader is such a beast that the cardback and TDT cardback just fall a little short

And I thought vader's helmet looks too big.

Think I must be the only one who doesn't like this Obi-Wan. I don't think the likeness is there, and without soft goods doesn't feel like a TVC jedi. Also, in every picture I've seen, it looks as if Vader's eyes don't line up. I don't need multiple Obi-Wans or Vaders so give us some new characters please Hasbro. Happy to pass on this one and save my pennies for something else.

That Vader helmet makes no sense. Look how low his left eye is compared to the mask? Does he see with his forehead when his mask is on? Dumb

Looks like sloth. Eyes don’t match ?
