I think my fave is still the RotJ speeder tbh, but I really do like this Swoop Bike too!! So glad I got it, when I saw your unboxing on Insta I knew I’d made the right decision ordering it 👍🏻😀🍻
I would love to get the bikes for both Mando and the Scout trooper,but as you said,space is the issue. If they ever produce a 1/6 scale Tie fighter though,I will definitely get that as it's my favourite vehicle in the Star Wars franchise.
Wow can you imagine a 1:6 scale Tie Fighter! That would be beyond epic! I think I’m with you there too, it’s probably my favourite vehicle from the whole of Star Wars too 👍🏻
I've been waiting for this since they solicited it. I can't wait to pair it with the deluxe S2 Mando with that wired cape and extra baggage. Excellent overview
Grogu is definitely a cutie, but I was disappointed to hear that you can't move his arms. Don't think I'd like him in that pose all the time. I really liked the saddle bags. Simple, maybe, but very effective and lovely detail. TK "This looks like metal, but it's only plastic."Got to say, I think the weathering on the bike is outstanding. Truly impressive. The flaking paint, the rust effects, the dirt and the rivets. So good. TK "The attention to detail on it is absolutely amazing." Definitely agree with you. I was actually surprised by the amount of articulation on the bike. Really didn't expect that at all. TK re attaching the saddle bags "I tried to follow the instructions, but it's almost like you need a degree in basket weaving..." Haha! 09:30 Oh my, with mando sat on the bike, blaster aimed at you, it looks phenomenal. What a great piece and putting the both of them together elevates the whole impact of each. Yet another surprise was that the swoop bike is bigger than the speeder. I'd have put money on the speeder bike being longer. Do you tend to order from abroad, or do you buy your figures from within the UK?
Yes this vehicle *definitely* needs a Mando sat on it!! Ideally I want to buy from UK but we never tend to get first batch so we have to wait ages. So if the price and delivery cost isn’t too scary I sometimes buy direct from Hong Kong. But a lot of next years figures will be UK based purchases. It will just mean I’ll be last to review stuff I guess!!
Thinking about getting this for TCW Ahsoka so she can be chased by Appo and his BARC troopers. Lucas wanted her to be killed by Anakin/Vader. Vader could be on a BARC or duelling her with the clones surrounding them.
Yeah looks great! You could try the paperclip trick to 'pose' the cape. Not done it myself but seen it done on posing videos. Maybe tuck in the satchel straps instead of them sticking up could look better. Just little tweeks can really transform how a figure looks, as we know👍
Such a beautiful piece ,,,great details. Great set to have but as like any other vehicle release, cant get it since I just don't have the space for it. Nice you showed how u assembled it and close up for all the small parts. Awesome video as always mate
Wow three speeder bikes!! 👍🏻 I was going to get two RotJ Speeder Bikes but wanted the swoop as well so just opted for one of each. But yeah space is getting dangerously low here too! 😅
Cool Review! I like this a lot and the Mandalorian fits just right in it, but other figures like my new Obi Wan Kenobi can sit in it but can’t reach for the handle bars so it looks like it was made for only the Mandalorian figure. I can’t complain since I got it for almost 50% off. Thanks for making these review videos!
@@ValkyrieMagnus-fh8yk Ah thats interesting, tbh I've not tried any other figure on the bike, just this beskar Mando. But wow 50% off is amazing, congrats!!! Btw if you're interested, the new Kenobi (Clone Wars version) looks fantastic on the Scout Trooper Speeder Bike (the Mandalorian) if you have that or have chance to get one 👍🏻 Thanks for the kind words and thanks for watching! 🙌🏻
Yeah takes up a bunch of space. Got it on a high shelf 😬 ideally I’d like it at eye level as a centrepiece but just don’t have the space unfortunately! Do you reckon it’s ok to move house purely because of collecting habits?? 😅
Wow, gorgeous piece! Congratulations on adding it to the collection! And thanks for the comparison with the scout trooper and speeder. I didn’t think that the swoop bike would have been bigger. Unfortunately, I won’t be getting it for space reasons. I already have the Mandalorian scout trooper and speeder bike set and my space can only not account for one 1/6th scale vehicle 😀. Once you get the chrome Mando, Mandalorian Luke, and Mandalorian Ahsoka, I’d love to see a comparison of all your 1/6th scale Grogus 😀.
Yeah the speeders and swoops will take up a big chunk of space unfortunately! Great idea on a Grogu comparison!! I have noted it down, thanks for the suggestion 👍🏻😀
Fantastic piece isn’t it, love the aged patina throughout the bike so very realistic, very clever design to allow it to piece it together without much fuss. Vehicles really do add so much dynamism to a display and elevate the figure so much when you pose them on top. As you say space is always a challenge, please be super careful if posing it high up on top of a detolf or floating shelf no over hanging edges that you could catch and knock over🤞Grogu in the satchel is such a fun piece and always brings a smile to your face when you see him😂 thanks for another great video, really enjoyed it and following on from your collection video last week you really are bringing the heat on your channel 🤩fantastic👍as always, very much looking forward to whatever you may have coming up next hopefully. Ps enjoyed your shout out on Todd’s collectibles channel just the other day , along with yourself he also has a stunning collection and sets the bar with yourself for great collections here in the UK, stay well 👍
Yeah Mando and swoop are perched on a high shelf at the moment!! Bit scary but everything seems nice and stable at the moment 😅 It was really amazing to get that shout out from Todd’s Collectibles!! I need to reciprocate but the next load of videos are all recorded and scheduled in so will be a few weeks. But his collection is next level amazing isn’t it!! Really glad I found his channel as like you say it’s good to find other UK based collectors and channels. Thanks for continuing to watch mine too 😀👍🏻
@TK421Collectibles thanks for the reply! Been thinking if I should trade my Boba Fett Repaint Armor for this one. Problem is the space too, trader said the bike handles aren't that tight as well
@@ElzyElz ohh tough choice, I love that repaint armour Fett! If I had to choose I’d go with the figure over the vehicle tbh although the swoop bike is *very* cool so don’t let me put you off if you want the bike!! 👍🏻
