I am honestly not even a Star Wars fan, and I am absolutely addicted to this toy line from Jazwares. They just nailed it for mass production detail and playability functions. The line just hits my childhoods imagination on all levels. I think that the chase and rare stuff is dumb though. Just my opinion.
Awesome custom af. I love the hera x-wing I think th detail is next level compared to what they've done and definitely the best x-wing to date. I did have the same issues with the front landing gear scare build up and felt like it was going to snap.
@@TataWireX that’s the best isn’t it! Glad to hear you found one. Hopefully, once Walmart starts stocking these on the next week or two we will see these more readily!
@@kmtanner04 here in Mexico we still have tons of Yoda's, Battle damaged Ties, and we even saw a restock of AT ATs, but nothing from other series. So yeah, It was a lucky shot on this month's visit to Houston to find it!
Dude, you’ve gotta do a video about the shelf of TIE Defenders you’ve got back there…. I’m a recent collector, in earnest, of the “action fleet” models from the 90s, and have just kinda caught wind of these new models after having pre-ordered the “Ghost w/Y-Wings” set for a buddy for his bday, and I’m just itching to see if Jazwares has plans to release the TIE/D. I paid an arm and half a leg for my action fleet example, and would love to get my mitts on some new ones at a much lower price. What’s the word? You seem up on all this mess. I just subbed as well, actually, as it was your channel that kinda pointed me down the path when I started building my action fleet collection a couple of years ago. Good channel. I’ll keep tuning in.
@@joshDammmit thanks so much for the comment and glad to hear the videos were a good resource for you. The action fleet stuff is awesome and was incredible when it came out! The Defenders I have have been accumulated over a bunch of years. Although, since I got into 3D printing I have printed myself a bunch as well. The details on the 3d printer are amazing!!! And have been a lot of fun to make. I run a group on Facebook with some friends and we had been doing live streams talking about the action fleet toys. Then, Jazwares launched this line so I have been at the forefront of the line from the very beginning. We did a handful of interviews with the Brand Manager and it has been great. I am excited to see what they continue to do with the line. I suspect we will see a defender at some point. It would be silly for them not to! Glad to hear you have been picking some of them up! What’s your favorite so far?
@@kmtanner04well, I pre-ordered the ghost with y wings set for a buddy, as I mentioned, and it looks amazing. He’s gonna crap himself. While doing all that yesterday, I found a royal guard tie interceptor so I ordered it for myself… the scaling looks like it’s a tad off from the micro fleet, but the detail seems better, so that’s fun! I managed to find some intel yesterday after I posted, and the TIE/D has been confirmed. I’ll be looking forward to your TIE/D video! I wanna see the detail on those 3D prints.
Great review Kevin. I painted up a spare Luke X-wing to be Hera's, and now that the Phantom is out there I have a Chopper for it. Your AF version is sweet.
Great job on the custom x-wing! I also have Hera’s x-wing, and to me, it has the paint deco of any of the other versions. Now if we can only get the tie defender…
@@saber_marionette glad you liked it! I actually took 3 action fleet figures and broke them apart. The girl from the shadows of the empire set, an xwing pilot and I think I cut the head off another female figure and glued it on. The head tails were made with miliputt.
@@anthonium. same here! Once Walmart starts stocking them they will be easier to find. I would expect them to be as readily available as the Shadow VWing.
@@anthonium. easyish still going to need to be there early in the day to grab them but yes. They will be out there and secondary market prices will drop to the $30ish range or less.
@@mycoolbeernuts6870 man! I sure hope so!!! It was mentioned that it may be in the works. I think they have worn out the resistance design. Time for a new one. Let’s hope it will actually come to the market!!
Dear, I love your review videos. But... Can you show us all those diferent Tie Fighters, that appear in the back there... That yellow one, and those up... Pleeeease.
Just got one, but unfortunately I had the same problem with the front landing gear and it snapped Hopefully I can eventually find another to just keep in flight mode
@@kamenraider1175 bummer!!! He’s the tolerance on the landing gear is really tight for this and the Kenner Xwing. I don’t think they account for the room they need when they apply paint.
Unfortunetly, more or less none of the chases and rares are ever available through official sources in Europe. Some you can get through third part on like ebay at insane cost (which I refuse to), but mostly not even that. Even many of those do not send here. Just like vault, target, gamestop and walmart do not send here.

This is one of my favorites, and I cant believe I found one on the wild just sitting there at Target

@@TataWireX I would imagine they should pop up there at some point. Fingers crossed!
Grats on finding Hera. Agreed, felt the same way when I found Wedge's X-wing last August.

@@hb2450 totally agree. I have a handful of Defenders I 3D printed. I am excited to see what MGS does with them.
I'd love to see a battlepack that pits Hera's X-wing against that yellow-trimmed Tie Defender.
Love the custom Hera! Do you have any tutorials on how to make those figures yourself?

@@kmtanner04how right you were! I found one and a phantom at Walmart!
Can we get a Real Return of the Jedi - A- Wing since we get all the Tie Fighters - Pass it on Kevin!

I wonder what this looks on the ghost
@@jaxonjohnson7179 it looks really cool! I have seen a couple of people post pictures of it.

@@kamenraider1175 I would reach out to Jazwares Customer Service and see if they can help at all.
@kmtanner04 Good idea, thanks , I'll give customer service a shot, I'll try to remember to give updates if there are any
@@kamenraider1175 thanks! Good luck!
Can we get a scout class Probe Driod??? Hello???
Is the tiny figures the same scale as the transformers crossover pilot figures?
@@spectrelobo1581 no the transformers figure are roughly 1.25” the Micro galaxy are 1”.
