Don't get me wrong Tim, I'm a fan, but don't let them get away with that two left hands for £50 stuff - that's very very poor on Hasbro's part. A bootleg - maybe. But the real thing? Come on fella! Big love as always x
There is ALWAYS demand for classic Original Trilogy era Stormtrooper figures, so Hasbro should make this 4-pack available for order or pre-order at all times. Also, I hope we eventually get offered similar sets for both Imperial Death Troopers and Phase 1 Clone Troopers.
Great job Bossk and Little Bossk. I picked up two of these sets. One from Ebay and one from Hasbro Pulse. The first one from Ebay came in with no real problems. Didn't notice any major paint issues and all figures were assembled correctly. The second set from Hasbro Pulse was delayed about 2 weeks before shipping. The figures seem to be okay (all correct parts as far as I could tell) and no major paint issues that I noticed. I did notice that the legs (hips and shins) and forearms on three out of the four were almost backwards out of the package, like the person who assembled them couldn't be bothered to twist them around the right way before boxing them. I'm thinking that the delay and hasty/shoddy work is caused by a rush at the factory due to the demand, or they changed suppliers overseas and are having production issues... (I'd hate to think the third option is that the four packs are uncarded factory seconds because we know some stores in the US got entire cases of carded Rogue One troopers just before Christmas)
I bought two 4-packs from Pulse when they re-stocked early this year (I would have bought 3 or 4, because shipping is so expensive to Canada but they limit you to 2 sets per order). I think the minimal packaging is amazing and the figures look great. Having 8 troopers immediately was a real thrill. Like others, the legs were twisted in weird ways out the box, so had a lot of reorienting to do, but they're poseable figs so that's not really a complaint. I separately had bought the 4pack fleet troopers, which were also great, but I was missing one of the ankle pouch attachments which would be my only QC issue in the 3 sets I got. I love these sets, my only complaint shipping cost. But even with shipping its still cheaper (or at least easier) than sourcing four (or 8) carded figures
Man Bossk, that is terrible to get a stormie with 2 left hands! What a mess. I don’t think ol’ Patrick at Hasbro could spin an answer for that very well like he did to some of your questions the other day.
Great video Bossk! Love to hear little Bossk voice! still an issue with quality control. guess what they say is true quantity over quality. Bound to happen…. I have a box but I want to keep sealed. while the paint apps are off they definitely look better then the ones I’ve seen before. As for the wrong parts 2 left hands……. hasbro needs to step it up a bit more
@@hommedammn7132 I totally agree 💯% I’m just a sealed box guy since it has the TVC logo. Eventually I want to get a second one opened displayed in front of each 4 pack on my shelves
Though I admit it's probably fate smiling on me because I had a QC issue earlier in the year with a Nemesis Prime from Transformers. There was a wheel missing on the trailer. By the time I noticed it, Hasbro Pulse was sold out. There was no way I was gonna send this figure back to Hasbro for who knows what. Funny enough Hasbro Pulse sent me two Black Series Darth Revans when I only bought one. I still don't know what the heck that is about.
I was pretty surprised when I got mine to see the orange pauldron considering the box art AND product shots. But glad anyway. My only regret was "Oh man I wish I'd ordered 2 of these..."
Once again, thank you for the review. It would have been nice if they had given us all of them with a different colored paldron, but that's just a minor detail. I noticed on mine that there is a number on the bottom of the box and I wonder if that's an individual numbering for each box? Be kind of cool if it is...
Hey guys, I’m glad this got a second release. I was going to reserve the pre order but it sold out. ☹️ but relentless checking on pulse, I seen them in-stock. But $10 a trooper: “not bad “ . But hopefully mines negative Q,.C, issues
Mine was all good all 4 is straight no issues. At all but hearing this worries me I've order the Rebel trooper pack and shore trooper pack hope theyres no issues with them when they get here
@@BossksBounty That's amazing! The thing is massive, it's a giant space party bus. I have no idea where to put it. I can't wait to see your video and hear your thoughts! I'm absolutely speechless.
They look great but I would be disappointed after paying and waiting for them..not really bothered about the paint on the helmet but the 2 left hands is a bit poor. How many of them got through ??? 👍
The pack is a great idea but poorly executed by Hasbro. The paint work being a bit off is borderline acceptable but two left hands is simply not on. I’m hoping if Hasbro continue to do these 4 packs then they’ll hold them to the same standards as the other figures in the line. Great review though! Cheers Tim & Little Bossk!
I mean, it is possible that the two left-handed Stormtrooper was actually defective clone who, as it turned out, didn't aim any worse than your average stormtrooper so he got a job after the Death Star blew up. Dag "Lefty" Mukgee, TK-5319, welcome to my personal meaningless head canon.
So should I moan because I wanted more than 2 packs? Or that they were sold out before I could buy any? Brilliant idea hasbro, so long as you make plenty available.
It's extremely disappointing that these havent been opened up to pre-orders again for those who missed out first time round as they sold out pretty quickly - these arent "collectibles" in the same way that carded figures are and everyone needs a set or two of these - hopefully they do another run or two in the next couple of years.......
@@starwarsroo2448 The problem is we don't know, we need to hear Hasbro's intentions - the demand is undoubtedly there from buyers.....re: Remnant's yes relatively easy to get, but I need some Clean ones too, and they arent as easy to source at a reasonable price :)
I bought 2 packs, one of the set all of the helmets had a weird warped dent on them. Plus the captain was missing black paint on a leg. I checked to see if they were still in stock on Hasbro pulse before I called them. They said they would send out a replacement, two weeks later a huge box containing the force link kessel run millennium falcon was sent as the replacement. Already had that, so called again, got a shipping label to send the 4 pack and the millennium falcon back. Got a check for the 4 pack.
I was really worried before mine got despatched -was seeing a lot of issues with QC and paintwork. I appear to have lucked out, they arrived from pulse uk the other day and I seem to have 4 perfect stormtroopers! Bad luck Bossk with the double lefty, I’m sure Hasbro would normally sort a replacement… if they weren’t all sold out! The secondary market prices for the pack are disgusting.
I would definitely contact hasbro UK about the 2 left hands. I'm sure they would send you a replacement! They have actually sent me replacements for less serious issues.
Sorry to hear your, or should I say lil' Bossk's, stormtroopers were not in the best condition. I ordered four sets from Hasbro Pulse and they all were just fine.
Lol trooper #3: sorry sir I can’t aim at Tim……..commander:Why? Oh ha ha it’s the traditional stormtrooper joke we all can’t aim…..trooper #3:no sir I have 2 left hands lol 😂…..
Paint apps on the first box I opened were all in good shape. All the right hands, no pun intended...still have another box to open. Wish they included a gun holster for these troopers. Or even just 2 of them. Vc118 Force Awakens Trooper looks great with the blaster holstered to the hip.
Because they're so scarce im thinning of getting the shoretrooper 4 pack which is great for Rogue one set ups and Mandolorian, is that one you will be partaking in??
I'd have liked to a grabbed a few packs of these Tim, however they had all gone within the hour on hasbro pulse, perhaps with two left hands, he may be able to hit a target now 😭
I think despite the quality issues of this pack, it’s a great addition overall. I just wish it was more of a constant thing for collectors. These army builders being exclusively pulse is a shame, and the fact that they haven’t even been in stock for months is unfortunate. Would be great if these boxes could be made to order or just always stocked for those who want it. It just feels odd to me not to keep these packs well stocked
Yeah, my rogue one stormtrooper is showing signs of yellowing on certain areas only 2 years after having bought him! The helmet on my Han Solo stormtrooper disguise figure has also yellowed a bit. All my figures are not in direct sunlight, so i think hasbro needs to rethink the kind of plastic they are using with their stormtroopers as it is very suseptible to yellowing. I'm not confident that these stormtroopers in the 4 pack will be any different.
Is it me or is the box twice as thick as it needs to be ? Also..a stormtrooper with two left hands? It will no doubt be worth times as much in 10 years and people will be tripping over each other to outbid each other on eBay for this factory error
I kinda like how the helmets are decent and not all perfect to each other, it makes them look like a new hope stormtroopers
Don't get me wrong Tim, I'm a fan, but don't let them get away with that two left hands for £50 stuff - that's very very poor on Hasbro's part. A bootleg - maybe. But the real thing? Come on fella! Big love as always x
This brings an all new meaning to being left handed!!! 😂🤣😂

Awesome video Tim, the possibilities are endless with these 4 packs. Jawa's, Tuskin Raiders, ewoks, droids, ugnaughts, mos eisley cantina patrons....
Ah, nice! I missed the opportunity to pre-order this back when it was announced. Just hope they re-release it in the UK :(

I don’t think keeping this first run sealed will make much sense considering the lapses in quality control.

My 4 pack only the captain had a miss on the paint job, there was some paint on the cod piece area, but thankfully I didn't get two left hands.
Don't be sad , I have a luke with 2 left hands !
still sealed in his card ;-)
I bought mine back in early December and got it before X-Mas. Surprisingly mine didn't have any QC issues at all which astounded me.

It does come with two of the bigger rifles if i remember correctly.
I say if there's 10 on the box, there should be 10 in the box.

Great set mate! Gutted that I missed them! I hope little bossk enjoys them 😅😅
I purchased this set a few weeks ago from eBay. One of the helmets has that same kind of defect.

I apologize if I missed it in the Brand Team meeting video, but did Hasbro comment on when a re-stock of this 4-pack will be approximately?
Wasn’t asked in my session
I got my 4 pack about 2 months ago and the stormtroopers were in great condition. However, I'm still waiting for the Razor Crest.
Mine was all good all 4 is straight no issues. At all but hearing this worries me I've order the Rebel trooper pack and shore trooper pack hope theyres no issues with them when they get here

It should be here tomorrow!!

I take it that these hands dont pop out like some of the 6" figures? Hello little Boskk
Got 2 of these and no real issues with them maybe I got lucky. A two left hand stormtrooper must hit less than a regular one.😀
They look great but I would be disappointed after paying and waiting for them..not really bothered about the paint on the helmet but the 2 left hands is a bit poor.
How many of them got through ??? 👍
Where do we get this?
Pulse
My set was similar, paint not great on the helmets. Overall I'd give the set 8/10.
Where can you order these 4 packs from?
Pulse and shop Disney exclusives

Still can't get it right!! It's ridiculous and they really don't seem to care 👎
So disappointed over regional exclusivity of this.
Cool set barring lefty, if they become available again I will pick up, Txs little and big Bossk👍
It’s a great set for price in my opinion especially with how high stormtrooper prices are, great video, I might pick one up if it comes back in stock
I bought two and I think they are pretty awesome.
Will these ever come back?

Well there a hell of a lot better than the one we got on 1978 Tim 😂😂😂🤩 great Review as always. Awesome too see little Bossk having a blast.
Bad paint and 2 left hands???? Are you going to complain to Hasbro. They owe you one more figure. Hasbro qa has some issues.

Hello there
Sorry to hear your, or should I say lil' Bossk's, stormtroopers were not in the best condition. I ordered four sets from Hasbro Pulse and they all were just fine.
Better than having 2 left feet I suppose 😂

Glad I didn’t get these due to the quality just got my tantive set and need a few troopers but I’ll use my old ones and the Luke and Han in disguise
I took a miss on this one, i already have a bunch of stormtroopers from all the other lines. Loved the rebel trooper pack though.
Hope the ones I’m getting will not have the same problems as your ones
My biggest problem is that there legs won't bend straight enough to fit in the imperial transport.
Just like my tunghori orders, legs are different lengths.
I’ve sold mine and waiting to buy the eweb ones with the better ankles
Hey BB i'm thinking they were rushed and didn't have time to correct it, love the review
Maybe there’s another trooper that’s all right
I kinda regret on not buying this mate! I hope they make more lol
Now I have to go check my eight troopers for two left hands! Lol
I’ve been trying to get one of these for so long! It’s very hard to find them!
Lefty is special
Unfortunate about the double left hands. Great Little Bossk got the figures. I would have loved a Trooper squad growing up.
Does the stand come with it?
No stands
