Finally back in the saddle making reviews! For the first official review of the year I decided to make it a 2-fer with both versions of Beskar Mando!

Can't wait for boba fett in his painted armour and black overalls, the sooner the better.
SAME I'M SO EXCITEDDDD
Wait did they announce one?
I really hope we get that this year. It's on my wishlist.
I bought the Beskar Mando for my nephew. Have never seen the 2-pack with Grogu and I don’t really care enough about seeing Pedro Pascal’s face to buy one from scalpers. For now I’m still happy with my original #94 Mando as my only figure of this character.
i do think the original one is the best in terms of value.
Hey Mike, Target employee here - so, unfortunately, the Mando build-up pack is marked as "Discontinued" in our system now so unless someone returns one, Target isn't gonna be getting more of these guys in the store. Exclusivity sucks and you're absolutely correct on the bot problem (I mean, just look at those G.I. Joe Vipers...) Hopefully, these guys will be given better treatment in terms of release later on!
that sucks! thanks for the info!
Still have never seen the build up pack in person, but do have the regular beskar Mandalorian and the original one both found at brick and mortor. And I agree, scalpers suck...'F' the scalpers , saw the build up and the standard one for over$150 and up on eBay and even Amazon, ridiculous.
i've never seen the build up pack in the wild. Glad i got one from target's website.
i love your tee shirt !
Thanks!
I did pass on this deluxe one because I already had the regular release Beskar Mando and I had the pram from the Mission Fleet set which works great I feel.
yeah the mission fleet one does work pretty well.
I rushed out release day and managed to get the last one of these at my local Target. Then two weeks ago I see two just warming pegs. Every time I’m prepared, it ends up not being necessary.😑
Oh well, at least I got ‘em! Great review, Mike! Cheers!!🍻
Side Note: I completely agree that the accessories should have come with other figs. Pram with Grogu, Ingots and Fob with Season 1 Mando, and the Beskar Din Djarin should have had removable helmet and proper jet pack/cape combo. We didn’t need three (four with the Credit Collection). This feels like a ploy for more money from Hasbro. And for me, it sadly worked.😞😃
yep! it was a lazy cash grab for what could have been a legitimately cool deluxe pack.
17:41-17:46 This has to be the “quote of the year”!...🤣🤣🤣.
I bought an extra one to sell to my childhood friend at cost. It felt very nice to help a new collector.
this will always be my view on scalpers.
Well...I am a bit disappointed, I must say. I have the Mandalorian in his first-appearance, beat-up armor. I kinda liked that. For the Beskar version, we decided to actually get something different. The Hasbro Black Series version falls a bit short IMO.
I like this version better on screen, but i think the old one is a better toy.
Love both and have both
awesome!
I want that shirt where you get it?!?!?
i got it from ript apparel last year.
I want to like this set. I really do. It is theoretically the definitive 2 in 1 pack of these characters. But there is so much that bugs me. The chin sticking out of the helmet. The barely articulated Grogu. The lack of a soft goods cape. The ingots of beskar instead of just giving us the ice cream maker. I'm happy for anyone that got this and enjoys it, but I'm going to hold out for something better.
that's exactly how i feel. I WANT to like it. I feel like i SHOULD like it. But it definitely has too many issues.
These haven't been to Canada yet!
Hopefully they will soon!
3 releases, 3 plastic capes.... and 1 to go with the jetpack. Sheesh.
yuuuup. kinda lame.
Love your stance on scumbag scalpers.
I mix my action figures with shiny chrome applications from the Elite Series with The Black Series action figures.
What third-party vendor did you get the cape from?
i'm sure that looks great! i honestly don't remember who gave me the cape. It was sent to me by a viewer, i don't think he makes them for sale, but there are a few places that make capes.
Yea, so I just happened to run into that deluxe Mando at a Target on the day it came out. I saw 3 of them and there was a sale, buy 2 get one free... so guess what i did? Yup, i bought all three. Kept one for myself and sold the other two to buddies... at retail price. Even tho I got one for free, gas still cost money especially driving a couple of hours away... And yes, I emptied the shelves but anyone and everyone had every opportunity to snag him coz I went to that Target at 7:30 PM!! nope, I don't feel guilty whatsoever.
I tried to get all three to use with that discount. One for me and one for each of my kids, but they would only let me buy one.
@@mikemercer5940 self-checkout bro... lol.
Hey, you spread the love and got them out for retail. Sure you made money because of the deal, but i think what you did was just fine.
@@MikeKaess just went towards gas money and like $10 or so extra for me... They gave em to me without even asking. I hook people up, finding stuff for em coz I actually do have such luck lol. I'm known and called as their "good luck hunter" haha..
The only thing that this has over the Bandai version is the Belt Harness. The SHF is overly complicated. Taking the BS belt and putting it on the SHF would make me happy. Maybe I will just make one out of leather strap scraps or something.
i'll compare it to the Hot Toys one when i get it
Bro that shirt is fire. Where did you get it?
Thanks! Ript Apparel!
Funny story I got to Target at 6am when the Target one was released. 4 guys were in line we waited we chatted black series it was cool. Then some jerk came up asked if we were waiting on Mando we said yes. He said he was gonna run when they opened he was gonna just run and grab them all. We said no he said yes back and fourth for several minutes. A Tagret lady came out. He told her he was gonna run and grab them all. She said no one per customer. He still said he would grab them all hide them and come back. He was a total jerk. She put him in line. Said if he got out of line or ran he would not be sold one. So she walked us 40 something men single file to the toys. It was like a school lunch line walking through the store and it was mildly humiliating. But we all got one even the jerk.
Have you preordered the new Cal figure from GameStop?
yep!
I have both, and I think the deluxe is the better of the two just because of how the helmet sits on the head makes it looks more square as it should. The single pack Mando is too round from being warped in the package, but I still think BOTH helmets are off, the forehead is too bulbus, and the front portion of the helmet doesn't come down as far as it should, the whole helmet just really bothers me a lot. Great video tho Mike! I agree this is a very mediocre figure and could have been so much better AND more available.
i completely agree with this comment!
I just got the regular release of the Beskar Armor Mando... and I was holding off on buying it for a while. So, looking at the armor bit, they were DULL. I went over each part with some silver leaf and it adds the luster that the armor needs.. in my opinion. I also sprayed the jetpack with some graphite paint and painted the body suit again with a deep chocolate brown/black mix to bring out the contrast of the armor on the cloth too.
Yeahhh, I wish it was more shiny. I eventually sold my beskar mandalorian and got the original armor from episode 1 and 2.
@@Kitbats The Durasteel version was my favorite too.
Yeah I have this deluxe mando and sculped the dripped slag of beskar on his right thigh with squadron putty and painted it with a chrome molotow pen. Looks WAY better.
I need an aftermarket cape now.
@@RandomStuffGarage619 I just cut the plastic cape from the figure to fit around the jetpack.
I wasn’t lucky with this one had to get it from eBay 😡
that sucks :/
@@MikeKaess yeah I know paid extra $15. Because I just haveeeeee too complete the mando line. Lol
Yo that shirt is legit
For Real!! Where’d you pick that up Mike?
thanks! picked it up last year from Ript Apparel
Any tips on getting him to hold his Amban rifle any better? I can get it but not with the right grip.
Slide the stock through the opening of his hand until it slides into the trigger
Great video! I love your reviews! I bought my regular release mando and I like it a lot. I honestly didn't want the one with the bad face sculpt lol
that's fair! as long as you got one of the two!
I want this, but I can live without it if my only choice is paying eBay scalpers, £75.00 ,nope I'm not going to pay that.
definitely not worth feeding the scalpers
Dang bro I’ve only been finding some for around 50USD which isn’t bad seeing that it was sold for like 35$ at target
The Disney Toy Box version has a shinier armor...huh? Hasbro be cheap. They are both the the best and worst friend of the collector. I like the ingots. But they needed the Camtona the 4” had. I like the pram but the slightly redone Grogu should have fit in it better. Mold it like the bag the biker scout came with. Yep cloth cape. Yep rocket effects. Yep shinier. I think a 2.75-3 is right.
the disney toy box version definitely is shinier
the comment you said about buying an extra one to profit, I was LMFAO!!!
its true though
@@MikeKaess sad to say, but your absolutely right!
12:22 TEN YEARS AGO? 😂
FEELS LIKE IT!
Isn’t it just great that Mando’s iconic amban phase-pulse blaster got disintegrated along with the Razor Crest when it blew up?! I’m still very miffed that most of the elements that made Din Djarin a bad ass were stripped away from him. He’s now just an average bounty hunter with no ship, no signature weapon, no childcare duties, no bounties, and no love life. I’m surprised Kathleen Kennedy and Disney didn’t completely strip him of his manhood and emasculate him by somehow melting away what little beskar armor he has left. Remind me again why I’d be interested in a season 3?
How come everything good that happens, Filoni and Favreau get praised. And everything bad gets lumped on Disney and Kathleen Kennedy? Kathleen Kennedy isn’t writing this. She green lit it, she’s supporting it.
But if you don’t like what’s happening, you should complain to Favreau and Filoni. And the reason you should care about season 3 is to see where it goes. Season finales often leave the story and main characters on cliff hangers or in a low point.
It’s time to see what happens next.
Where did you get that shirt?
Ript Apparel
This is a cool bundle but there's unnecessary accessories like the beskar ingots and its container. He's already wearing the beskar lol.
lol yep! whoops on hasbro!
I've been looking forward to this, also before the mandalorian got his spear in the show I gave mine a spear which is weird
yep, we definitely need a spear now!
@@MikeKaess oh for sure, judging by how most people don’t like the face and we need an update with the spear but it’s kind of a no-brainer for a release
u deserve more subscriber
Thank you!
Is it me or the build-up one's helmet looks way better than the standard? I only have the former but still, I'm jugding from the pictures)
it is a bit better, yes
Awesome video
thanks!
I am unsure why, but your comment on the scalpers really cracked me up
I'm very glad you enjoyed it
@@MikeKaess :D
I wish they would have made the ingots into a spear.
I think this was made before S2 ended, and it's probably a hard figure to get hold of which is why MK was only able to review it now.
Oh i wish that were true. it was mostly just laziness in getting video reviews done. I've had the review written since December.
Sweeeeettt review! My favorite part? "If you're buying and extra one to sell online, go fuck yourself". Brilliant!!!
Excellent review. 2019 was ten years ago..I honestly feel like 2019 was farther away then the 90s.
You did a great job scoring these, very good commentary.
I'm glad you liked them, Seth!
It was Target exclusive...? Now is a little expensive
True that!
What do you think of the gaming greats cal kestis that’s been leaked?
it's not a leak, it's announced and up for preorder. I have it preordered!
@@MikeKaess yes my mistake
either way, i'm in!
its a good figure, comes with a pokemon so had to preorder it
OH SNAP DIDNT KNOW TIL NOW THANKS!!!
Released 10 years ago back in 2019, bruh lol! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
i mean, am i wrong?
@@MikeKaess Absolutely not!
The big problem with the design on this and all the mando figures is his disintegrator rifle, the but stock is upside down to the on screen version.
Can only hope they can improve it when S2 figures come out
Yeah i really hope we get an updated version.
@@Kitbats it was destroyed with the razor crest
Love that shirt.
I'd pick this up, if they ever show up in Canada.
The Beskar bars are just more accessories to leave in the package.
I believe you are correct about Mando not using the tracking fob in his Beskar.
I ended up ordering the figuarts Grogu, so I already have a good pram, less reason to grab this release.
Thanks for video Mike. Always appreciated and enjoyed.
I think they'll show up at TRU in Canada.
17:41 - my thoughts exactly! I totally missed this one. Great video as always.
hope you get it if you still want it!
@@MikeKaess If it ever comes down in price. But that face... 🤮
I agree with you on every level Mike! What a missed opportunity this "deluxe" version is with the same default as the normal beskar release, bad accessories (except from the prom) and a terrible grogu. Since I already have the normal beskar release and grogu I won't buy it again for the prom and the djin djarin head. I bet in a few months we will have a new Mando with better face, a new soft cloak and his spear.
very much a missed opportunity of what could have been amazing!
I think we will get another Mandalorian with his dark sabre and extra accessories
probably!
Great review as always spot on. Sooo I must know who is your soft goods supplier? Link?
i wish i remembered, tbh
Great review! I never took the beskar out of the package. I knew it would be lost instantly. But one big question, what is Grogu’s widest stance? The people need to know!! Once again great review! This is the way!
Widest stance? This grogu has no legs my dude.
Thank you for your inside information!! Load off my mind!
lol Grogu is always in his widest stance! but good call out, i should have mentioned it.
@@MikeKaess grogu: "the Glenn" champion 2020
Where can you get this figure? I’ve been searching forever for this!
I got mine from entertainment earth
@@MikeKaess thanks man ✌️appreciate it 👍
Great review, Mike! About a year or two ago, Target stopped shipping to Canada, so all their exclusives mean holes in my collection unless I hit the scalpers! LOL!
I wish exclusives were just temporary, and then went to a wide release.
Thanks to you I got a remnant stormtrooper, because I've not seen a trace of him in Canada!
I believe this will be a TRU exclusive in Canada
I don’t actually have grogu yet, (other than the one from the speeder bike) and I am patiently waiting for him to release with the pram. Wish it was weathered and stuff tho
yeah, more weathering would always be nice. I hope they redo grogu with his original pram.
I bought an extra one to sell to my childhood friend at cost. It felt very nice to help a new collector.

good looking out! thanks for spreading the love!
Lol “10 years ago in 2019”
tru tho!
I lost the tracking fob like the first day.
lol! i actually love mine on the carpet for a day
I got both lol
me too!
OMG I finally beat you to reviewing a figure!!! Hahaha
you did it!
this figure makes me crazy because his chin sticks out under his bucket....
His chin only pokes out if you don't put the helmet on all the way.
@@thelocustgrappler513 mine always sticks out some
@@davidcorrell8563 have you tried burying his chin in his chest and then pressing down on the helmet? That’s how I got mine on properly.
@@thelocustgrappler513 hmm ill try that
@@davidcorrell8563 yeah let me know if it works for you
Pounced on this video!
yay!
