"the actor who played dac" is that man's true name

I gotta say, the snow speeder is perfect, it's so simple but so awesome

That is one amazing piece! If they had only made it with the light and sounds of the original, missed opportunity. I really like the detail they put into it, the nicks and dents are great, and the scaring. I'm glad you got one, and enjoy it! Thanks for the great review, and I love that helmet!! 😁

I can only wish they would make AT-ST for their 6 inch Black Series figures.

Hasbro are just going to do the speeder bike with the heroes of endor for the Jedi collection but if they do a at-st it probably be based on the vintage one but I can’t see how the head will be able to support the weight of the legs

I'm not into this scale, but this is a great piece. Fantastic review, Tony.

Thanks Tony! Now I not only have to buy this Black Series Snowspeeder and the Luke figure, ( thanks to this excellent and comprehensive review ) but I also have to watch The Empire Strikes Back, ( for only the second time ) because the clips you used in this video, really makes me want to see it again! 😁

I knew from the moment I saw this beast that I needed it. In regards to the clip on the canopy - it's a common problem - a fix is to use a nail file and file just a little bit off the clip.

Just goes to prove that Hasbro can do good work when they bother! For the landing gear, I'd get a small block of foam that fits in the gap between the open doors and then they can't fold closed again.

Awesome vehicles from star wars and figures collection are amazing 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

thanks for showing the toy to us in great detail, nicely done :)

Great review Tony! This one looks great! Glad you made room for it!😁😁

Great review and idea for display!!

As a general rule I avoid the Star Wars 6" scale stuff, but I have picked up a few here and there. But when they announced this one I had to have it. My issues with Hasbro's pre-order system not withstanding I'm very happy with it. I don't have the issue with the rear landing gear that others seem to have, mine are pretty tight. But the canopy latch is much to tight for my comfort so I have mine displayed with the canopy down but not latched. Now to the points you brought up about the removable blade on Luke's light saber and that odd removable panel on the side of the speeder, I found that there is a perfectly light saber blade sized space under that cover where I store the blade for mine and keep it safe from harm.

Nice tip, thanks for sharing!

This is an awesome review. This got me really excited for next week. I just ordered one through Ebay and the seller was amazing enough to include a Luke. The Snow Speeder and AT-AT are both my #1 favorite vehicles from Star Wars.

Tony... lol... absolutely LOVE the helmet! The rebel armored snowspeeder is still my all-time favorite SW vehicle. This version is amazing! In 1979 my fave was the Falcon but then 1980 and ESB hit and "it was on" lol. I still have my original with box from 1980, and have a picture of me playing with it at age 10 in my living room. Priceless. Have a great weekend! - Rob

Amazing review, thanks for sharing.

Thanks Tony for another comprehensive review, after watching your video any doubts in my mind were cleared, I need to get one of those for my collection. Nothing like riding this particular nostalgic wave.👍

Nice review! Easy thumbs up, cheers from Canada!

My favourite ever Star Wars vehicle. Couldn’t wait to get it back in April.

Excellent review Tony! Empire Strikes Back is one of my favorite movies of all time. The Snowspeeder looks great and definitely rounds out a Battle Of Hoth display very well. The temptation to finally dive into collect Star Wars Black Series lingers deeply. I loved the introduction!

Another GREAT review. Thanks.

Excellent review. Thank you.

Great review and I 100% agree! I just got mine not too long ago and it really looks like a high-end movie prop. Keep up the great work!

I'm glad you have this in your collection Tony, it's a beautiful piece, I love my Snowspeeder and it looks just as good as the real model that was used in the movie and is just as good as the more expensive EFX models.

I ended up using a TV wall mount and it works beautifully to use as a flying display. Love this gem of a toy/display piece!

Wow 🤩 the best review on the black series snowspeeder I’ve seen so far ... nice job

Awesome review Tony! I hope to pick this one up but I've been focused on replacing, repairing, etc. my original vintage Star Wars collection.

Looking forward to getting one myself. Great review.

Great presentation. Nice vehicle

Thanks for another great review Tony fantastic details and no pesky decals at this price point. I especially love the cockpit and canopy.. Waiting for an Amazon Sale to grab one of these and apply the savings towards a 1:12th Millennium Falcon Lol!

Great review Tony. Magnificent vehicle. You're right it really does look like a movie prop. Have to say that hadn't realised how anonymous the packaging is until you mentioned it

The box is classy and cool.

The Snowspeader is one of my favorite Rebel ships gonna have to pick this one up, awesome review!

Brilliant review👍👍👍

Tonys my fav toy reviewer. I want one of these now.

Awesome awesome awesomeness 👏🏼 I think I have to get one ASAP

Exquisite stuff in this size--- all you need now is a full scale collector to buy it, no problems there!!

Great review :)

What a coincidence.I just bought a MISB POTF Snowspeeder.I don't collect SWBS but I still enjoyed your video Tony.

Now you're going to need some Snowtroopers for that display! Get review as always, Tony. Some of the modern toys are really pretty good.

Awesome👊🏾🤙🏼 this is my favorite star wars ship as well as the falcon 😀🤙🏼

I don't collect the Black Series (3.75" fo life! 😄) but items like this sure do give me pause. This ship is a thing of beauty. Simply amazing! I had the original vintage one as a kid, and it was my favorite as well. Great review and overview video!

> VERY COOL, TONY, FULL OF DETAILS.

One critique I would make is that the laser canons are closed off at the end, rather than hollow.

This thing AWESOME! Just picked it up on Hasbro Pulse and it should be arriving any day. Another step closer to an 6" scale Luke's X-Wing :) Great review!

Great video sir if I collected Star Wars I would be all over this!

I think this is a great review. When Hasbro does something good it is great that you can be positive.

very nice, I know a few model makers taking their brush to this model to enhance it even further. Some great thought gone into all those accessories, these larger figures are becoming a firm favourite...sadly no space for this beauty with the R.Crest on its way. another great impassioned video...oh and by the way regarding the box...it is the 'BLACK' series after all - says Derryl DePriest, Hasbro vice president of boys marketing in 2013 - In creating something new and different with Star Wars, the color black became an inspiration for toy designers, DePriest says. "It's one of the main colors of Star Wars all the way back to the beginning, and it's the approach that Lucasfilm has taken with their collector-oriented product line. We're bringing that simplicity and essence and focus on the character now to the toy aisle."

I agree that Black Series Packaging was supposed to be aimed at More Mature Collectors, and I Really Do Love Gregory Titus' Art Work, However I think Hasbro Missed a Great Opportunity Here to have Packaged this in Retro Inspired Packaging the way they did the ESB 40TH Anniversary Black Series figures on Cardbacks, and the Retro Styled Box they used for the Re-Release of the Hoth Wampa, Exclusive figure. This would have Looked Fantastic in a Retro Styled Box as well.

Huh funny the pilot console looks like something Dr. Brown would design. Cool.

Great video as always....I shudder to think of the price though.

Hoth as the best battle of the series, but as a kid all of the action llay sets and vehicles were way outta my price range. This review is great, so much detail in the vehicle I am struggling to resist buying Empire classic figures, including this. Dak's figure is great, wonder how the actor would feel 40 yrs on, finally being an action figure....

The one thing I’always wanted ,and I got.

Great ship

Tony, great video, as always! How did you hang this beast on the wall?

Good luck getting a speeder for a decent price!

That's a nice helmet you've got there Tony. (nudge nudge...)

I received mine last week and overall am happy with it although the lack of any instructions and the Frosted Canopy Glass is a bit disappointing.

I remember a kid bringing one of these to school and we were all disappointed because it wasn't a ship from the Buck Rogers TV show.

I enjoy to see those weird alien characters which were used in Star Wars.

Hehe hey man, you rocker that helmet well! 😉 A very detailed ship isn't it. Although, coz my focus is 3.75bvery much so atm... it's really out of place in my home. I hate mixing the scales and hence I don't keep it with my 3.75 stuff (which is massive) It's currently kicking around in my living room until I can figure where I'm gonna definitely display it. O.O.K 👌🏼💙

Love the t shirt do you have a link for it?

The T-47 is also my favourite SW vehicle in ANY of the Sw films, not just the OT. I had been planning of buying this ever since it was announced but after watching two cents toys review, some things put me off: I know it is movie accurate but I just prefer the white version of the snowspeeder plus the size But after watching a friend's video earlier this week, I jumped on ebay & there was one for the original retail price. Only problem was that the seller had zero feedback, not even in buying, so I just couldn't. I know I may regret it down the line but c'est la vie I do have the UCS LEGO Snowspeeder which I believe is the same scale as this as well as multiple other LEGO snowspeeders. I'm gonna try & make a Hoth Wedge using a luke body. There's a bit of irony in the photo they used on the Luke card & he didn't come with a regular head. Really should've included a second head

I have the 3.75 scale version a lot of the features In that version. Are the same as this one obviously the cockpit detail is better in the 6 inch both are cool toys

I have to agree with every point you made, Tony. The only critique I had was the same. My rear landing gear wants to fold in with the slightest movement. I thought it was just me worrying about opening that cockpit. I felt the same way, that I might break it but it's pretty robust. I think the only thing I found that wanted to come off easily were the laser cannons and that was only with some physical playing/flying. I love the fact that every accessory provided safely stowes away inside the cockpit, too. I think the only thing I would want to add, if I really had my druthers, would be a place to stow Luke's lightsaber hilt. I totally agree with you that the addition of lights, sound, and or a motorized winch are completely unnecessary and would make the price points far too high. It's a big son-of-a-bitch but it beautiful. Love your idea for displaying on the wall. Its size really does limit most people's display options. I still don't know where and how I want to display it because I can't find a place where it fits comfortably.

Yeah I agree the landing gear could have been designed a lot better Michael Shaffer as it does seem to want to fold in on itself if you move it when it's on a hard surface or even if you lay it down on a hard surface, that's the bad point I have with this Snowspeeder.

Tony, using metallic tweezers on plastic parts looks damaging... there are some prying plastic tools (usually used to open and repair electronics) that you could use. Very nice content, loved the ship!

You look similar to a Valaverse figure i use with GIJoe classified. Man i wish id picked up the SnowSpeeder. I have the Tie Fighter, LandSpeeder and 1 SwoopBike and 1 speederbike. I personally want Vaders Tie Advanced.

How did you mount it on the wall?, I need to do the same 🤔

One custom you could do is swap Speeder Luke's head with Bespsin Luke. Reinact the scene where he talks to Dakk just before the battle. Good way to leave the cockpit open.

Kinda want the desert colored variant. But not at that price, waiting on the clearance price, but man it looks great.

I got the snowspeeder a couple of months ago, it's ok, but the only real issue I had was the plastic they used as the glass for the canopy, what do you think my friend, nice review brother!

Sorry to leave this here, but the video you did about the razor crest but the comments are not on. So I will say that I bought 1 razor crest and it doesn’t bother me at all that it got blown up. The only ship with more screen time is the falcon! So it’s not like it was in a shot or 2. 2nd most screen time of all Star Wars vehicles except the falcon. The razor crest will be the centerpiece of my collection right next to my legacy falcon. You know the first version of the 400 dollar 1 they were just selling with hondo and chewie

It does look lovely, but I think I'd just like the original toy from the 80s. A wall hanging is cool. Maybe hang from the ceiling in a dive? I'd like to see the AtAt hat goes with it.

OK I just checked how much it cost.

The one thing that has always bugged me about ESB -the best SW film by a mile - as illustrated in the clip you used, is that Luke gets into the snowspeeder with his helmet not on, or even his skullcap & the canopy starts to close. There is hardly any room to move in the snowspeeder so how does he get his helmet on? 🤔 I doubt he has time or the space by the time the canopy closes

That is beautiful. I say kill the landing gear as it never had them just some display stands. Thanks

Like the tumbler & Selina Kyle were never called the Batmobile or Catwoman in the Nolan films, this was never called the Snowspeeder in ESB. That was all down to Kenner to sell the toys
