Can’t believe they dropped the 187th before the 501st

I actually like that they didn’t do the smurfs first.

the potential to do more legions is incredible

Saw these in the Star Wars outpost at Disney Springs the other day and was shocked to see 187th merch. So awesome.

This one looks more accurate to the films than Hasbro's black series one

I believe hasbros black series is based off the clone wars show if I’m not wrong

I saw the helmet on the site. Initially, I hesitated. The next morning I saw your video on my feed. I watched this great review and immediately went back online and made the purchase! Thank you so much for convincing me. I don’t think I would’ve pulled the trigger without your thorough explanation. I can’t wait to see it in my collection room. MTFBWY.

Fun fact, the 187th legion wasn't canon until the lego fighter tank and even then I'm not sure if that made them canon in universe or just for lego star wars. In the clone wars he has the e187th battalion and they have more brown markings. the legion is actually a hasbro invention.

It’s non-canon. Lego makes non-canon figures like Darth Malak.

@@nerd7834 Right, this wiki article I read said lego made them canon lol. I don't think that's true but its what the wiki said.

That is a pretty dope helmet. Love the colours and weathering. Size proportions look spot on to me. You’re killing it with all the May 4th releases

Thanks! Yes I 100% agree!

Awesome! I picked one up from the online Disney store while I was watching your video

I’m tempted to get this. I’d love to mod it with some Tem Morrison phrases from the Battlefront games and maybe find a way to give it a matte finish instead of the gloss. Only I’m not sure how to do any of that. 😅

Another cracking video there buddy. Helmet looks amazing my friend.

Thank you so much for reviewing this helmet. I saw it on the Disney Store website on the 4th, but passed on it because I didn't notice that it included actual phrases. I'm an older lady, but I still prefer helmets that talk to me, which is one of the reasons why I like the Disney helmets much better than the Black Series Helmets. They're smaller too. The Black Series helmets wobble on my head they are so big. The Disney ones are cheaper as well, so Disney helmets are the best option all around for me. I also wasn't aware that the 187th Legion Clone Trooper belonged to Mace Windu, and because I had already planned on spending way too much money that day on the Ahsoka Lightsabers I really wasn't interested in dishing out any more money. LOL. Based on this review though I just went to the website and purchased it. Had to have it after all. I even got 10% off for being a card member and used a Free Shipping discount code. Awesome!

@@HyperdriveStarWars It’s 10% off, but only on certain items on the website. Often it hasn’t worked for me in the past, but it did this time for the helmet.

It's interesting because the thinner plastic around the visor on the Hasbro one is actually more accurate to the ROTS helmet

I'm curious how easily this bucket can be disassembled for painting. I really wanna get one and give it a nice ROTS-accurate matte repaint.

I saw these at trading post on may the 4th and it looks so awesome in person 🔥🔥🔥

Very Very nice and accurate size. More easily to walk or look out

I actually saw that it was available on the Disney Store website on Saturday just by accident and picked one up. Thanks for the share! BMF SLJ 187 for the win! 🍻 and MTFBWY

I may have missed it in the video, but how comfortable is the helmet? I couldn’t see any cushioning if there was any.

Great looking helmet. Hate how they do a gloss finish on a battle damaged helmet tho. Recently got the black series Rex helmet and it’s battle worn but glossy too. Tempted to spray it with a matte finish but too scared to.

Awesome review! This is also available on shop Disney for the same price.

Missed this completely on shopdisney UK, only saw it later in the day when it was out of stock. Looks great for the price, but is too shiny in contrast with the weathering. I’ll pick it up if it comes back into stock.

This is gonna be a great budget mod helmet. I like it better on the shelf than the BS ones I own already, it looks both more canon accurate and also more to scale with the other BS helmets. $85 for a magic key holder is a big W

I will stick to my Rotocast helmets for accuracy. However, from what I can see the Disney helmet is more accurate but looks to be a mix of Animated and Realistic versions of the clone helmet almost like what they did with the Rex and the other clones in the Ashoka series.

I usually would go with black series for things like sabers over the Disney ones but I gotta say Disney did a way better job here

If disney made this themselves… does this make the purple version of the 187th legion canon?

It looks grey or a very pale purple. Maybe the size it's think for the kids. For that price I still prefer Habro one.

Great video! I can't agree with the 501st being in the top 5. The articulation is just so bad he can barely hold a blaster. But great video overall!

WAY BETTER. Hasbro’s helmet is my personal most disliked product they have ever made. The visor and mouth shape is completely off and stretched. You can tell Disney actually was loyal to the ROTS references and matched the CG model or the Kenobi model.

To me the visor just looks really weird. The size of the helmet is better than the Hasbro, but the visor from the Hasbro is better in my opinion.

I was waiting for you to hold a YES/ NO poll as to whether or not that was going to fit your grape! I would have voted no given your past expression on how large of coconut you have. I think this far more accurate than the BS series. You touched on all of the points except one, the tear drops on the outboard of the lens bracketing is spot on. The BS doesn't have that which is a deal killer. This one; now I have to find someone I know whose been to Disney that could snatch one for me. You know the eBayers are going to going in dry on what they'll be asking.

OOPS Man I thought I covered everything. I agree this helmet is so much more accurate though than the BS series one. The only thing I would change is the split on the top part of the dome. I don't feel its necessary. Even with my big melon it was easy to get my head in this helmet. I hope you can get one. I won't be back at the park for at least another month. But if I am I'll make a post if I see them again.

Maybe the one that wore this one was actually a little short to be trooper.
