I really applaud Hasbro for updating the Mando sculpt from head to toe. It looks so good, I can't wait to get my hands on it.

@@MikeKaessI am tempted to get a second, especially since I managed to find one at MSRP at F&S

I find it quite hilarious that the best Mando weve ever gotten from black series, rivalling even import companies, is technically from another show and not his own xD

I think one of the biggest disappointments of the Book of Boba Fett was that they didn't utilize the Tuskans better. They really seemed to waste an opportunity with them.

No. The biggest disappointment is that there is still no Boba Fett from the Book of Boba Fett. But the Bandai Boba Fett is a really nice replacement.

How...? Boba does an entire train heist with them haha. I only watch a movie edit tho, so eveything is in chronological order so maybe that helps

Can't believe you said all Pykes look the same. Wouldn't be surprised if you call Twi'leks tailheads too.

Thanks, Justin!

Great vid, can’t wait for your top 10, Mike. Kinda surprised that I haven’t heard many people mention cad bane as top 10 material. He’s easily one of my favorites this year. But it has been such a banger year for the black series

That’s the truth. There have been so many good figures this year. Way more top 20 contenders than any other year.

It’s been a while since I have been excited about a Black Series release but I need this Mando.

Excellent. Most excellent! The way you get the figs out of the box is most satisfying! Some kind of magic i guess?

Great job Mike, thanks for starting with Mandalorian. I do like Pike too.

Thanks bro!

Nice! I had a surprise and very pleasant purchasing experience with the new Mando earlier this week. Haven’t opened him yet, but I’ve really been looking forward to that figure. I also really enjoy the pikes so I’m glad to hear you say it’s a good figure. Happy Holidays Mike!

Thank you, Mike for a super detailed review, I walked into Toysrus yesterday and bought the whole wave...03 aliens and a stellar Mando just mind blown with it's aesthetics, Hasbro SW Team is doing it right...looks like some characters do get more love than others, it's a must have for avid fans. Seasons Greetings and have a fantastic 2024☕ 🇲🇾

Excellent wave. Thanks as always Mike.

This was great. I ordered the two pack after watching this. I wanted Cobb Vanth anyhow. What sold me was the comparisons on Cad Ban. I agree the two pack is better.

I picked up the Mando (he’s incredible) Pyke dude which is awesome and I skipped the Cad Bane bc I got the 2 pack from target on clearance for $27!! I need to grab the Tusken leader soon. Great review! Just subscribed. 👍

Heck yeah! Always great to see your reviews, and been looking forward to this one. Cheers!

​@@MikeKaessfor sure, appreciate the extra time on new Mando. Lookin nice! Pyke seems like sleeper hit of the wave, just dropped the ball on troop building. Cad maybe a good alt head on discount, and Tusken I just see a base body for Charlton Heston Moses lol

That looks like a great Mandalorian figure. If I find one at retail, I’ll pick one up.

Great video! After seeing this, I’m gonna pass on that Cad Bane since it’s pretty much the same. However, I’m more excited about the new Mando now!

Stoked for that mando. I’m very glad I got the 2 pack cad bane and not the single release

Mando’s blaster grip is new. I dig it. And the lack of the strap on holster.

yeah the strap was really weird on the old one, for some reason my one's gun didn't fit unless i put the gun in the other way around

Good stuff! I’m looking forward to the chieftain, Pyke solder, and that sweet sweet upgrade for Mando. Definite buys. I just love all things Tatooine. TVC got the bad ass warrior and a dog. I want both for Black Series. Have a safe and fun trip. Merry Christmas! 🎄

That new Mando is just amazing holy crap

Just waiting for my Mando figure in this wave here in the UK.

Great wave. The Mando is the best version of him we've seen at this scale, by far. FYI @Mike Kaess for Mando the left kneepad *is* a floating piece and can be adjusted to have the rockets pointing forward with his knee bent

I’ve noticed as of late these waves aren’t really stellar all around waves, they’re good, but they do have a solid 1-2 bangers as well!

@MikeKaess

Yeah I agree with that. Definitely in the last 3-4 waves

Hello Mike thanks again for sharing your thoughts on the latest line of black series figures. I'm not getting Cad Bane myself, he looks good but I'm not a Cad Bane fan. I've got the original (Clone Wars version I believe) and I just don't see any need for another in my collection. I would have gotten the two pack with Cob Vanth just to get Cob Vanth so I had a version without the Boba armor, but no luck so oh well I'm getting the Mando with Dark Saber he looks so much better than the Beskar Armor Mando that was originally released. I've only got the original and the first Beskar Armor Mando figures. I never wanted to get the other versions with Grogu, just a waste of money in my opinion. Definitely getting the Tuscan Leader, I've had him on preorder for quite a while. I actually got the Credit Collection Tuscan Raider for a leader but now he'll be a lieutenant I guess. The Pike Soldier looks great I've got two on preorder at this time, might get more on sale. I'm hoping we get color variations for the Pike Soldier figures. 🤞 Thanks for taking the time to review these new figures Mike, I appreciate it. I hope you and your wife have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Tom

miss seeing ya uncle mike

All of these are a pick up for me. First time a whole wave is a pick up for me.

Lol can i please get that cad bane if youre looking for a good home for it
