Agreed dude! 10/10, and I'll say the same for Padme. Pair them together and it's a perfect display. Well done capturing the likeness on camera. I had a hell of a time trying to get my camera to see what my eye was. 💯🤘🤘

Nice one Chris. Ace video, my most favourite you are. I love this figure, looks great. Love the sculpt and the clothing. Great articulation too. 9.5-10 for me. I don’t think I’ve done him justice in photos yet but hope to.

So loving this figure. This is one figure which took me 10 seconds to decide to get it. He & Padme is just an absolute have for me in the display. Also, im also loving all the things that come with it, especially the display. GReat video for an awesome video. Cheers mate

Great figure , I like it a lot , really well done. I genuinely like all his figures and what a fantastic one this is for posing next to others, so many ways to display him aren’t there. The Years have flown in, can’t believe it has be that long 🤯. Figures are coming thick and fast so so many new releases, I am guessing your collection room must be at just about maximum capacity again, even though I know you added extra detolfs😮. Thanks for your thoughts on this fantastic figure, have a great rest of the week and as always mind how you go 👍

Hey Andrew!! Yes its scary have the years have flown by since AOTC 😥 But it's great to be a collector now seeing all these amazing products get released 😃 Yep, collection room is getting close to capacity cabinet-wise, but I will be cramming the figures in because I cannot stop collecting 🤣🤣 Thanks very much for watching my friend, have a great week 🙌🏻

I think when it comes to releases we just need to wait until we get these figures in hand, because it's hard to judge the figure from photos and different lighting awesome video though.

Thanks for the review! Due to space I can’t get him, I just can’t bring myself to part with my original light side anakin as I still firmly believe it holds up perfectly fine. Still nice to see he looks better than whatever the blogger photos were cooking lol

Yeah light side Anakin definitely still holds up, he's an awesome figure 👊🏻 Cheers for watching 🙌🏻

Aside from looking a little soft, at least on video, the sculpt and its likeness is excellent. Sometimes a head sculpt doesn't turn out ok, but most of the time it's the questionable quality (lighting, angles, camera focus, lack of decent close-ups, poses) of the early videos and photos which can give a false impression. It happened with this figure, and even more so with Inart's Aragorn.

@TK421Collectibles

Amazing review as always my friend! I have this on order and its a must have if you are all in on the AOTC line. I feel this is something that looks better in person vs on camera like how I felt about Mace. That being said, I'm excited for it! Congrats on the pickup and great review!

Thank you mate! Agreed it looks phenomenal in-hand. If you like the Mace figure you'll definitely be impressed with this one so glad you've got this one on pre-order! Thank you for watching and for the continued support my friend 🙌🏻👊🏻

He looks really good and this is my favourite outfit for him to wear. The lighter shade of brown of his tunic works better than the darker brown of his light/dark side versions, imo. His partially constructed (did you say they call it mechno?) hand is a nice accessory. Don't think I'd display him with it attached, but it's a wonderful option and extra to have. You point out the seamless neck, and I have to agree with you that it looks better to have no seam there. Guess it's a trade between looks and poseability and depending upon which one of those matter to a collector most will factor whether or not they prefer the seam, I suppose. 08:56 Anakin posed beside Padme does make both figures that bit better. So good to see.

@TK421Collectibles

26 күн бұрын

It's a great outfit, and yeah subtle difference with the lighter shades of brown. I actually forgot to try the mechno-arm, I've found removing the arm and inserting the replacement can be quite tricky on other figures so maybe subconsciously avoided doing it 😅 But its cool to have in the set. Thanks for watching my friend!! 🙌🏻

All I’m saying is I hope Sideshow releases it soon because I’ve been waiting for so long. I had it on pre-order for almost a year now. I got my padme when it said the expected ship. However, the Anakin one got delayed till July through October 2024.😤 I just hope I get mine

Great review, good to see this up close to check the head sculpt while I wait for mine. I think it looks really good TBH. I ordered this to go with Padme in the display. Think they look great together. I would love to pre-order that artisan Anakin, can't order it anywhere!

I really like this figure, the hair impresses me more than anything, so cool. I think the reason the head looks a bit off is because he looks younger than I think he does in the film, his face looks fuller. To me this screams the speeder chase scene. How do you think the pleather will hold up, it looks more shiny and different from older figures with pleather, hopefully it will last better. Think this one is a must have prequel figure. Great video as always dude 👌

@TK421Collectibles

26 күн бұрын

Was really impressed by the hair too 😅 The fact that the seam is very well concealed as well is a bonus! I think he actually looks slightly different ages throughout the film tbh (I mean he obviously aged during filming). In this figure I see the scene on Tatooine mostly, where he's talking to Padme in the Lars garage area. You're right the pleather does look shinier doesn't it. Tbh I've never had a problem with pleather on any figure in the collection fortunately. The climate here is good for figures! 😅 Thank you for watching mate, really appreciate your comments as always! 🙌🏻

Five out of six dentists recommend this video!!!! Great review. I don't understand all the b_tching about the headsculpt, either.

Tips to prolong pleather life 1) dont touch the pleather with bare hands , sweat will destroy it 2) use silica gel to absorb the moist in your display cabinet 3) store your figure in room temperature 4) do not attempt to clean it with wet cloth Hope it helps. None of my figures of over 10 year with pleather flakes. Im living in malaysia and our temperature is tropical.
