This have to be the best representation of all the Victory Saber versions. FYI, the Japanese voice actor of Victory Saber is the legendary Hideyuki Tanaka, the same voice actor for the Gold Saint Leo Aiolia of Saint Seiya. He was also famous known for voicing Kiminobu Kogure of Slam Dunk.

I grew up with this anime and had been wishing for an awesome Star Saber/Victory Leo oversized toy that I probably can never afford ever since I was a child. My dream has come true and yes, I still can't afford this.

Love this figure. I have Unicron but I was not able to open him since I didn’t have enough room so this guy is technically the first Haslab I’ve opened. It is honestly mind-boggling how good it feels to finally have him in hand and on display.

Can't wait to see the rest of the zodiacs maybe it'll complete Star Saber's super armor, like Victory Aries forms his hat, Victory Aquarius forms his gloves, Victory Capricorn forms his shoulder pads, Victory Taurus forms belt, Victory Pieces forms a surfboard, Victory Saggittarius forms a bow & arrow, Victory Virgo forms body armor, Victory Gemini forms knee pads, Victory Scorpio forms a tail stinger, Victory Libra form a scale to weigh how heavy Star Saber is & Victory Cancer forms a crab back pack.

This whole set gives me strong Voltron vibes. Especially Victory Leo in beast form.

miss opportunity on the end skit for incorporating the fact that victory leo is revive/ rebuilt/ reformatted optimus prime and star saber is a single father of a human boy

Love the video. Love the figure. In hand it’s everything I was hoping it would be and more. My only complaint, is I wished you were familiar enough with Victory to shout Transform! every time you transformed all of the bots. The best/funniest part of watching the show

Glad you got yours without issues, there is a bunch of people reporting QC issues. specially the gold chest in both, including me the chest in Vic Leo is scratched. some reported missing pins and others two left/right parts. my base came big a big knife scratched! ugh!

I Still think this could have & Should Have been 2 Mainline Figures. A Leader Class Victory Leo, and a Commander Class Star Saber with the Flight Stand & Micromasteres.

Very happy with this set myself it was well worth the wait, now I can't wait to get my Haslab Deathsaurus late next year.

I personally would have preferred if the chrome parts on Leo and Star’s chests were just a more show accurate yellow because I think they’d age better but I guess that’s just a matter of preference. Still incredibly satisfied with it.

Great review as always Emgo. I am happy to live vicariously with this one, I decided against backing it and this helped reaffirm my decision. Seems like one I would transform once and display it for the rest of it's life.

I've actually only recently started watching Victory and it's very, very, VERY anime. Definitely harkens back to a simpler time, but it makes me want updated Dinoforce/Dinoking figures. I'm definitely glad I backed this guy, he's incredibly fun to mess with and has tons of modes to display, probably the most display options of any figure I own. I also backed Deathsaurus because I love his design and really liked his character in the IDW comics (shame about IDW Star Saber, that's one of the few things about that continuity I wasn't crazy about). V! V! VICTORY!

awww this is killing me that I missed it. Have Deathsaurus coming in but I wasnt collecting Transformers when Star Saber was funding. Really wish he wasnt double the price on the aftermarket now

mine arrived a while ago, gonna open it on christmas in the meantime, however, i'll continue watching reviews of it until the day arrives

Not sure if anyone mentioned it in the comments (there are a lot so I apologize that I didn’t read through all of them) but you can use the clip for the V-Lock Cannon to attach it to the missile pods on Victory Leo’s hips in his robot mode. It gives him a sort of Armada Megatron vibe.

Star Saber is my favorite transformers character in the victory anime because I'm a weeb lol

46:03 You KNOW prime's ego was wounded after that one

TRANSFORM!

Well this review surprised me because the last star saber review which was a long time ago emgo himself said that since he doesn't have any attachment to the star saber character he was just going to sell it which he did if you remember that review that he did a long long time ago which if I remember was for one of the Masterpiece Star Saber

Woooooooooooo more blooshes to add to the collection

I don't know why I didn't see this earlier, but the V-star is suddenly giving me Gradius vibes. The Gundam and space shooters influences are apparent. I received mine last week but it's still in the box. I haven't taken time to get into it properly. Thanks to this review I know what to expect. The Victory Leo transformation is only slightly more complicated than a G1 Predacon.

Love the lighthearted background music!

YES!!! EMGO'S haslab VICTORY SABER!!! yes ! this is a blast

Mine’s coming on Friday. Very excited.

I already got MP24 so I didn't need this one. I did back Haslab Deathsaurus though so I'm psyched.

I got mine the other day but havent had a chance to get them out and check for QC past the quick glance, my Victory Leo has a small chip in the chrome and they both have ligtht scuffs. This is also the first time Holi has had his proper deco, sad we don't get the other 2 micromasters with Deathsaurus.

VICTORY SABER!!!!!!

he's one that i never got, but always wanted - he was just to $$ on the 2nd market due to him being a Japanese only one. now that he is made to buy for anyone he is still to $$, i wish they would make a "cheaper" Legacy one for those of us that can not spend $500 on them. Star Saber reminds me of the Alpha/Beta combo from Robotech cool fact - Power Master Optimus Prime/God Ginrai in Japan IS Victory Leo

Emgo has become more powerful! MORE BLOOSHES!!!

How would you fix a loose ratchet joint? Mine's knees are also a little loose

I felt the "Oh scrap!"

Victory Saber Megazord is what I will call it

OP "Oh scrap!!" That had me laughing

My Victory Saber had various QC issues, mainly botched painting on several sections. $200 for something that looks like a rushed job or just was in improper storage.

It’s been a while since I uploaded this, but I believe I mentioned that I don’t have the MP anymore.

I know the true mode should be the upside down lion head but I hate it and I like to flip it over so the lion head is upright. Just looks so much better to me.

I’ve been seeing a few posts of this Star Saber guy & I had no gottdam idea who he was at all. I asked my buddy who also been a fan of TF since the cartoon came out in 84 & he had no idea who the hell Star Saber was either. I had to watch KZread videos & found out this guy is kind of unknown outside of Japan which explains why I never heard of him.

Wait I know you reviewed the star saber before and it's huge

So annoyed that I couldn’t back it would of loved to have this guy oh well guess I’ll just have to wait for liokiaser

I kinda wish the Prime and Victory Saber interaction ended with Prime asking "but can you rise?" and Saber just replying with "Yes!" floating out of the top of the frame.

I like this set for the most part, but my biggest issue with it is their size. Both of them should be larger, as Star Saber on his own is close to combiner size, and with this set he isn't that size until fully combined. It's still a nice set, but it is what it is.

I tried transforming the saber into his jet mode. But my nose cone isn't staying secure. There's a bit of plastic that prevents it from connecting flush on the saber figure. Would Haslab be able to fix it/ help me. Because I don't wanna damage a figure I paid $180 for.

I wonder who came up with the "bigger shoes = more powerful robot" concept, it's so ubiquitous in the Japanese super-robot genre. Adding a jetpack with guns I can understand, but how does being slightly taller make you way more powerful? It generally throws off the proportions too, where the robot becomes 50% lower leg.
