    That stitch is called a dart.
    Darts are folds (tucks coming to a point) and sewn into fabric to take in ease and provide shape to a garment. They are used frequently in all sorts of clothing to tailor the garment to the wearer's shape, or to make an innovative shape in the garment. =^.^=

      If you where to buy a general action figure, I would recommend bandi kit general grievous over this black series action figure. The bandai kit is a beautiful model and very detailed even though u have to build it. You also get to customize him with paint to make him have battle wear if you want to. I have no regrets with the model and it was worth the money. The only thing is, he a fragile, you can not mess around with him too much, since hes a model kit. I think Bandai kit did an awesome job with designing him and put some real love into him. On top of that Amazon recently put the kit in there store, so you dont have to buy it from a shady Japanese website. If the kit is too expensive then i also recommend a clone trooper or boba fett, these guys are just as good and are half the price, you get them on Amazon too.

      Iker Muñoz Cano the most recent and upcoming releases from S.H.Figuarts have and will all have been from ROTS, like most recently Anakin, Obi-Wan, and then Dooku (next month) and Yoda later this August so it’s a strong possibility that they’ll be releasing him hopefully soon. And I can’t wait.

      Honestly, in terms of 1/12th scale, the Bandai Model kit will the best Grievous we'll ever get only because of the organs and since he's incredibly light, you can pose him in plenty of stances that are going to be tough for heavy figures like this one and the Figuarts (if we ever get it).

    Dude, I literally got my copy today! Nice! Such a great figure too! Tbh, I like both but even though the Black Series is a bit smaller, sometimes a bit too small, I still think it works. Also, my joints are still nice and tight for the most part, but the "Dog legs" should probably be a bit more snug on mine. Though it still hasn't caused any problems for me. (Hopefullythe it won't.) So I may just keep both for certain poses and pictures all together. Idk though. It depends how much I use the Bandai kit. Especially when the head is ridiculously loose just because I had to pop it off once because I forgot a piece... I definetly like the Black Series articulation, but when/if the SHF Grievous comes out, that may be my go to. But we'll see.

    This comment is 2 years late, but I’ve gotta say, with where Grievous’ canonical height is, this figure is actually perfectly scaled. Seeing a lot of people in this comment section saying the scale was off, but it’s actually right on the money. The model kit, however, is too big, Grievous is not as tall as Chewbacca, never has been

    Wow that comparison was what I was waiting for. Just finished the Bandai video. The lightsaber's weird scale bugs me, and the cape has nothing on the black series, but the scale difference! I'm 100% going model kit this time. Grevious has to have that height for maximum shelf presence. And the inner detail is great. Better arms, and personally I paint everything, even my Black Series; So a modular kit just makes that easier.
    Thanks for buying both so we only have to buy one Robo.

    TBS Grievous is nice but after seeing all the reviews and the model kit comparisons, I believe with S.H. Figuarts most recent and future ROTS releases of Anakin, Obi-Wan, and now Dooku next month and Yoda this upcoming August, I’m definitely waiting and holding out for their General Grievous which looks bigger and more screen accurate like the model kit, but I may still grab this one just in case.

    My Dorkside Grievous arrives tomorrow. After watching this review, I'm not very excited. Maybe it's the fact that I'm currently all in on Marvel/DC Mezco figures right now, but this Grievous feels very underwhelming imo. While I'm happy at the cloth goods attempt, the promo cape looked SO much better. Add in the loose joints and overall blandness to this figure and I'm kinda regretting paying nearly $40 for him when it's all said and done. Who knows, maybe having him in hand tomorrow will change my mind a bit.
    The worst part is I ordered him from GameStop first (higher price than Dorkside) and it's been murder trying to cancel that order. Surely I don't need two of these...

    I know this is late, but i just got the model kit grievous, and you can use the black series grievous lightsabers on the model kit, they fit very well in the hands, and it makes the sabers in scale if your mixing star wars figures from different companies

  • @meteormuffinmedia4519
    @meteormuffinmedia4519 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    I agree with most of what you said in this review however, the points made about the model not being play friendly is not a fair comparison as the model is more meant to be built, painted and displayed where as the black series is more so a toy which is meant to be played with. Also two different demographics. I think your review was solid but just something I wanted to say my opinion on. Also as far as accuracy and detail goes the model wins hands down as it's more into scale with figures, and overall has a better presence. But the thing the black series grevious wins at is the head articulaton and the already painted hilts. Both are solid pieces either way

    • @Metalpug79
      @Metalpug79 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      It will definitely look really nice, but I’m worried the slight down scale that the SH Figuarts figures usually tend to be will make him a little too small. When they do put out a Grievous, hopefully they’ll take that into consideration though. :fingers crossed:

I already weathered grievous a bit and am used to completely customizing figures from scratch (3d print) so given my niches with BS grievous def investing in Bandai, watched your video of the Bandai and I’m sold, reminds me of the old car model kits
