Thank you Jason!! Anytime, I still really love that old Jabba, but he's met his match. Such a great set, and the fact that we can take proper photos of the palace and set these up in our collection rooms is just "chefs kiss" ✨👌😃✌️✨
Your set up is AMAZING! Great work and thanks for the review. Can't wait to pick him up- arriving in September for us in Australia! Cheers mate, another great video 👍
Thank you so much!! I really appreciate it! Oh nice, hopefully these start to ship out a bit sooner for Australia. Thanks again for the support, this is the way 🙏😎🙏
I believe I got my set the same day you did, and boy was I initially tricked into thinking they sent me the 6" one. I was just like, _"there's no way Jabba, the throne, and two carded figures are fitting into this little box,"_ boy was I wrong. I know it was for cost cutting reasons, but I really love how this box is virtually the exact same size as the vintage one. What would've been icing on the cake (like something NECA would've done) is a slipcover that mimics the packaging of the '83 one.
A slipcover of the old Kenner version would have been pretty rad! I like that idea. They also did exceptional work fitting everything into the two trays, brilliant design. The size of the box is definitely important due to shipping costs. The more of these they are able to fit into boxes and then a shipping container the better the overall price point is. A lot goes into the packaging and shipping design. 👌😎😎
@@ToysAreTheWay God, just imagine if the packaging was close to twice the size, or if they actually re-engineered the lower half of Jabba to give them actual proper tail articulation. Thing would've practically been a haslab cost. I do wish we got tail articulation similar to how NECA did with their Godzilla figures. A handful of ball jointed segments, then the very end has a wire in it. I can see them doing a new 6" Jabba with the throne for a haslab. Maybe include a few other pieces like the little staircases and back platform featuring the spit.
@@ToysAreTheWay Ha, just realized I was totally wrong with that vintage Jabba box. Could've swore the original box was one of those generic off-white looking ones, with the image looking like an illustration. In a new review, someone compared it to the original box. And the original box is a good bit larger...something I wasn't expecting. *Maybe they had two versions; one with the full colour, and another like what I mentioned/thought.
Great review my friend, can't wait to get this set, it looks fantastic and your toy photography is always amazing to see in action. Its surprising to me that we haven't had another reissue of the Gamorrean guards though, considering they were also in the Book of Boba Fett, do you think we might see them pop back into the line?
Thanks a bunch man!! I really appreciate your kind words and support. I am also really surprised about no re-packs of the Gamorrean Guard especially during the ROTJ 40th. I would not be shocked if we see them again, but we should make noise and let @hasbro know that that's a smart repack that we want to see. ✨🙌😎🙌✨ I'd also love to see the two from BOBF, they would need some new tooling but would be so cool.
So all the measurements add up as far as Jabba being in scale, but I think the throne is a tad too large. That's what seems to be throwing everything off a tad. I do love how the rings on the little gargle heads aren't floppy. You just align them to be perfectly hanging down naturally, and they stay right there.
Thank you! It's an edit I made in Adobe Photoshop, and Amanaman is over on my Jabba's Throne Room shelf display with all the other characters from the palace, which you can check out on my latest room tour vid. ✌️😎😎✌️
I love this whole set! I just set mine up too, complete with the slave Leia Legacy version, and added a small necklace as a chain. Also used the stage from Bobas, agree, its weathered better. Can't stop looking at it!
I would keep an eye on Hasbro Pulse, there may be another production run of this item, but also order cancelations. I could also see this Pulse exclusive become available to other fan channels in the future if there is a strong demand (which there clearly is) so definitely just keep an eye out ✌️😎😎✌️
Got mine in Australia today ,I haven't bought figures for years but had to have this,my only fault is it seems tiny,I have the original jabba from the 80s I thought it would be similar size
I just got mine today and I am very pleased with it. I was lucky enough to get a really good sample in regards to the chin paint and mine is nowhere near as overdone as the ones I've seen including yours. I think mine is actually the best sample I've seen which makes me very happy. The railing and bowl are huge improvements over the SOTDS versions and are better sized and shaped to allow more room on the throne. The throne is a much nicer colour than the Boba Fett one IMO. I prefer the sculpted pillows. I will say I do not like the Salacious very much. The sculpt I think looks better but the paint is very basic. He really needed some shading and claw paint. They also missed the hair paint on his chest. The SOTDS has all of those paint features even tho he's not perfect. I'd really like to see a repack of this figure if they can budget in better paint apps. They definitely CAN still do nice paint apps cuz Jabba looks brilliant, the paint on him is stunning. I want that quality of shading and colour variation for Salacious too. Oh, and 8D8 not having elbows is still my biggest problem with the set. It was the very first thing I noticed when it was revealed and it still bugs the heck out of me. I hope we get a BOBF version with new articulated arms. Great video by the way, you covered all the details nicely.
Awesome man!! Glad you got one of the better paint app samples, seems like that has a pretty decent production run. Totally agree that the railing looks so much better, and the more I look at this set compared to the other there's no competition. I think the only downside is the lack of articulation on Jabba's tail. Fingers crossed they heard the feedback about 8D8 because a BOBF release with articulated arms would be wizard! ✨🙌😎🙌✨
Nice!! I just got mine on Friday! I like the comparison. It appears the SOTD Jabba is lacking paint apps. Although, those chin accents on the new one is rather glaring. I will need to open mine as well. Now I need to see a side by side of this new one, the Jabba that came with the Rancor set & the sail barge Jabba.
It was a hard decision but I decided to pass on this one. Still happy with my 2010 one with Oola. I'm just happy everyone can finally get a jabba the hut.
I know right!? The end of the year is going to be pretty epic, which is nice because it's been an odd year thus far with A LOT of repaints, and partial tools. I need some more new! E-Wing is going to be rad 👌😎😎🤘
The salacious crumb 66A is return of the Jedi and the one from the Revenge of the Jedi deathstar set from SDCC IS 66 and will definitely hold its value
Totally, those Revenge of the Jedi cards are definitely going to stay top dollar. I have seen 66A is already starting to get listed for $200+ which is crazy ✌️😎😎✌️
With the proper lighting and display, I think Jabba will look a lot better. Sure they could have used the color palettes from Phantom Menace but the settings in both the palace and the sail barge were dark and allowed Jabba to really stand out. Also there are reports of inconsistency with the painting on all three figures so that’s another thing we have to look out for.
Totally!! The paint apps are more visible especially in bright lighting as you can see in the video. But it did look much better in my photo, which is a very low light setting. I'm still going to dull that paint app on his chins down, it's way too harsh. A buddy of mine on IG and a comment on this video had samples with less severe paint apps, so it's possible that there are some variations on different production runs. ✨👌😃✌️✨
Nice acquisition I was wondering if I should get it since I have the wal mart exclusive jabba and Oola released several years ago Just subscribed hi from 🇨🇦
Thanks for subscribing!! I really appreciate it. Personally I am really liking this Jabba upgrade. The dais, pillows, and hookah look way better, and the new Jabba is really growing on me. ✨👌😃✌️✨
Cool Id like to see it live maybe I should get it but my problem would be where to put it since my collection is big but the appartment isn’t A problem I never thought would happen
Nice one I need a new Jabba the Hutt but I am happy with the Jabba the Hutt I already have so but see what happens I might get a new one but I might not be we will see I have an old one from the old vintage back in the good old days
It's a nice upgrade for sure! But there are so many Jabba's out there that many of us already have, but if you are looking for an upgrade this is the one. ✨👌😃✌️✨
Thank you!! I used sand just as a practical effect for my photos, but it's way too messy for a display haha. If you check out my "how I set up my throne room" video I used a piece of foam that I covered in grout and then added some weathering to. That's kind of my go to for a lot of displays ✨👌😃✌️✨
Hello. First super great review. I have a question. I´m a little TH-camr from Germany. I Have already the Set, too. But I wouldn´t open the two Figures, to my Review. I´ve eeen, you´ve did this. So my question: Could I use your part of the video, in which you show the articulation from the carded figures? I will also link your channel in the Info-Box from my Video. Thanks for an answer.
It would be helpful if you would release a video showing us non painters how to remove or de-emphize the brown highlights on Jabba's chins like you mentioned
Oh true, maybe I will post it as a short on the channel, or at least make a community post for the quick fix. Apparently there are some variations out there as a friend on IG and a comment on this video both got Jabba's with a less harsh paint app. ✌️😎😎✌️
Greetings, Exalted One. Allow me to introduce myself. I am Luke Skywalker, Jedi Knight and friend to Captain Solo. I know that you are powerful, mighty Jabba, and that your anger with Solo must be equally powerful. I seek an audience with Your Greatness to bargain for Solo's life
Excellent review mate, totally agree with the paint being too heavy on the chin flab. I saw another guy's video where he teaches you how to tone it down. I prefer the Jabba with the tongue sticking out, is that the one you called Shadows of The Dark Side Jabba set? 8 D 8 is awesome, I have my very old Kenner version. His face is very gaunt, eyes sunken in, and looks really miserable which is movie accurate. Salacious is so cute! I have quite a few friends who can't bring themselves to open him because it has been so difficult for them to get the original one LOL!!! With the Bib Fortuna Set now TVC collectors are spoiled for choice, if you collected them all just switch and change up the pillows, or whatever you like to your own individual taste. Great video, love the quality of your editing.
Thanks man!! I really appreciate you! Yeah I plan to tone that paint app down a bit, but there's also been a production variant that has less severe pasta stains hahaha. Nah the tongue out Jabba is from the 2004 Saga Series I believe. And I just had to get that Salacious out of that bubble, he needs to be laughing it up in the palace haha ✨🤘😁🤘✨ Thanks again man!
@@ToysAreTheWay I recently learned that the SAGA Jabba was based on the animation, but I think his face looks really cool, and the tongue is such a great accessory. That's officially my favorite Jabba ^^
Never know with fed ex I am supposed to get mine on Tuesday! Kind of wish I bought two now! I am just going to use an old salicious crumb and 8d8 for the throne room amd keep the new ones on the card!
Oh dank farrik! That's the worst, that's happen to me when they start the shipping process, but it doesn't get moving before the weekend. Hope it ships soon! ✨🤘😁🤘✨
@@ToysAreTheWay I just got it delivered today! I LOVE this set. Seeing almightily Jabba in all his pride and gluttonous glory is a dream come true 🤣 I'm also loving the soft goods pillows!
The old one I like better! Salacious Crumb the monkey lizard I mean. Either Jabba seems to work with TVC action figures, but the newer one has the nicer bright colors and the eyes are neater on the new one! :)
So Rad you finally got the first review! This is my 1st Jabba and I’m stoked. The platform looks to match the throne room better? There was a girl just like Oola in BOBF chained up in same gear to Bib so why not make? Lastly, did you notice there is no Disney marking on the box, only the cards?
Thanks man!! I have been pretty lucky this year with some early acquisitions. Oh heck yeah, glad you're adding a Jabba to your collection. This one definitely brings the A-Game. ✨🤘😎😎🤘✨ That Twilek was cool, I wish they would make more action figures of them. Numa from clone wars, Sebulba's lady's, Garsa, and that BOBF trailer character would all be cool releases. I actually just noticed the Disney logo is on the bottom of the box, which I didn't show because it's boring and just warning label stuff.
Thank you!! Yeah, I do feel that he looks a touch small. It's not awful and possibly is a bit more accurate than the old version, but still looks odd. ✌️😎😎✌️
Oh I got that a few years back from a Hobby Lobby I believe. Check a craft store or amazon, this was brass jewelry chain or something along those lines. Definitely a must for that Oola, the string was pretty lame ✨🤘😁🤘✨
That would have been cool, but seeing as there was not much public demand for an all new Jabba they went with the most recent mold. I definitely would have liked to see an articulated tail ✌️😎😎✌️
I actually got lucky with the Jabba paint apps under his chin. Mine are not that dark and there’s no need for me to correct it. I’m thinking it’s a different batch from the others.
7:35 D’OH! What the hell? Mine came today, and… I. Am. Pissed. 😂 You think acetone might take off the yellow/tan underneath that dark brown “wash”? Wind up stripping more paint than needs to be removed?
Yeah it's not ideal, especially in bright lighting as you can see. But it did look better in my photo, which is a very low light setting. I'm still going to dull that paint app on his chins down, it's way too harsh. Acetone should work, and you will only need a light application. Isopropyl would also work. 👌😎😎🤘
@@ToysAreTheWay Excellent. I’ve seen guys use acetone to take cell shading off Marvel Legends, and those production “serial” numbers off the thighs of Black Series. I use it for a bunch of paint and adhesive removal. (In my experience it’s skin safe. Wouldn’t be such a thing a 100% acetone nail polish remover otherwise) Thanks! Any tutorials in the works?
I totally agree! It has long been rumored that characters like Oola and Hutt Slayer Leia are off the table, but there could always be a chance in the future 😎✌️
I would keep an eye on Hasbro Pulse, there may be another production run of this item. Definitely seems like there is a lot of demand! I could also see this Pulse exclusive possibly becoming available to other fan channels in the future if there is a strong demand, so definitely just keep an eye out. Big Bad Toy Store could have some stock later, or maybe Entertainment Earth. ✌️😎😎✌️
Great review, setup, and photos, but please don't side with Hasbro on the 8D8 elbows. While true the limbs are too thin to do a typical ball socket hinge, as they did with IG-11, all you have to do is look at figures like FX-7 and especially BG-J38 (which shared parts with 8D8 in the film). Both those figures used a simplified hinge for the elbows, and they worked perfectly in the 3.75" scale. There is absolutely no good reason Hasbro couldn't have gone the same route with 8D8 here. They were just trying to cut costs, plain and simple. Arms that only have swivel joints at the shoulder should be barred from TVC! Hope Mr. Stevie rectifies this issue when 8D8 is inevitably reissued on a BoBF card.
Thanks! Oh I totally agree with you that they need to find a solution for these types of small joints. I am a BIG advocate for maximum articulation, but it seems like their new factories have much less lenient rules for the production of some of these smaller joints and swivels. Which is frustrating. ✌️😎😎✌️ I wanted that articulation just like the old FX and BG-J38 but it seems like this 8D8 is scaled even smaller than those and they have even stated that a figure like FX would be much harder to produce these days. At least for mass retail, which makes me concerned that we may never see that release.
Nah I dunno man, we get the dais, with all of the accessories and two carded figures. It aint too bad tbh. But I am sure there's a little mark up here, 375 die hards aren't passing on this one haha
The demand for this set was real!! You should keep an eye on Hasbro Pulse, there may be another production run of this item, but also order cancelations. I could also see this Pulse exclusive possibly becoming available to other fan channels in the future if there is a strong demand, so definitely just keep an eye out. Big Bad Toy Store or maybe Entertainment Earth could get these later. 👊😎🤘
Great video TATW. Thanks for the comparisons with the SOTDS Jabba, and great photographer and diorama set up as always.
Thank you Jason!! Anytime, I still really love that old Jabba, but he's met his match. Such a great set, and the fact that we can take proper photos of the palace and set these up in our collection rooms is just "chefs kiss" ✨👌😃✌️✨
Great review my friend!
@@BenSwoloCollector95 thanks bro!! I’m pretty happy with this upgrade, and stoked we have built out a good chunk of Jabbas Place now. 👌😎

God, just imagine if the packaging was close to twice the size, or if they actually re-engineered the lower half of Jabba to give them actual proper tail articulation. Thing would've practically been a haslab cost. I do wish we got tail articulation similar to how NECA did with their Godzilla figures. A handful of ball jointed segments, then the very end has a wire in it.
I can see them doing a new 6" Jabba with the throne for a haslab. Maybe include a few other pieces like the little staircases and back platform featuring the spit.

Wow, so many things coming our way soon. Jabba, the Ghost, and E wings, oh my.

@@ToysAreTheWay I recently learned that the SAGA Jabba was based on the animation, but I think his face looks really cool, and the tongue is such a great accessory. That's officially my favorite Jabba ^^
Lovely! I was anticipating my delivery today as that's the information FedEx provided. However, it's been stuck in Illinois since the 13th 😢
Never know with fed ex I am supposed to get mine on Tuesday! Kind of wish I bought two now! I am just going to use an old salicious crumb and 8d8 for the throne room amd keep the new ones on the card!
Oh dank farrik! That's the worst, that's happen to me when they start the shipping process, but it doesn't get moving before the weekend. Hope it ships soon! ✨🤘😁🤘✨
Yeah they are so random. Nice, fortunately we have those older releases. I got two of these sets, as I wanted to check out those figures. ✨👌😃
@@ToysAreTheWay I just got it delivered today! I LOVE this set. Seeing almightily Jabba in all his pride and gluttonous glory is a dream come true 🤣 I'm also loving the soft goods pillows!
The old one I like better! Salacious Crumb the monkey lizard I mean. Either Jabba seems to work with TVC action figures, but the newer one has the nicer bright colors and the eyes are neater on the new one! :)
Yeah that old crumb isn't half bad tbh!! I'm still leaning towards the new one, and that Jabba is a nice upgrade 👌😎
So Rad you finally got the first review! This is my 1st Jabba and I’m stoked. The platform looks to match the throne room better? There was a girl just like Oola in BOBF chained up in same gear to Bib so why not make? Lastly, did you notice there is no Disney marking on the box, only the cards?
Thanks man!! I have been pretty lucky this year with some early acquisitions. Oh heck yeah, glad you're adding a Jabba to your collection. This one definitely brings the A-Game. ✨🤘😎😎🤘✨
That Twilek was cool, I wish they would make more action figures of them. Numa from clone wars, Sebulba's lady's, Garsa, and that BOBF trailer character would all be cool releases.
I actually just noticed the Disney logo is on the bottom of the box, which I didn't show because it's boring and just warning label stuff.

Great review of an awesome set. However, he looks a bit undersized when paird with human-sized figures - Bib Fortuna and Slave Leia.
Thank you!! Yeah, I do feel that he looks a touch small. It's not awful and possibly is a bit more accurate than the old version, but still looks odd. ✌️😎😎✌️
Hi,I have a question how did you find perfect chain for oola.
Oh I got that a few years back from a Hobby Lobby I believe. Check a craft store or amazon, this was brass jewelry chain or something along those lines. Definitely a must for that Oola, the string was pretty lame ✨🤘😁🤘✨
Great set overall. I like it better than the 2010 Jabba set.
Yep! I totally agree, that Jabba has a special place in my heart, but this new version has really elevated my palace display 🙌✨👽✨🙌
They should've made a hole new sculpt, with more correct likeness. Maybe even a feature for closer eyes
That would have been cool, but seeing as there was not much public demand for an all new Jabba they went with the most recent mold. I definitely would have liked to see an articulated tail ✌️😎😎✌️
I actually got lucky with the Jabba paint apps under his chin. Mine are not that dark and there’s no need for me to correct it.
I’m thinking it’s a different batch from the others.
Nice!! A friend of mine on IG got one with less sever paint apps as well. I need to check with him on what production run that was 🤘😎😎🤘
7:35 D’OH! What the hell? Mine came today, and… I. Am. Pissed. 😂
You think acetone might take off the yellow/tan underneath that dark brown “wash”? Wind up stripping more paint than needs to be removed?
Bruh, acetone takes real skin off.
😂🤘 A light application should be plenty
Yeah it's not ideal, especially in bright lighting as you can see. But it did look better in my photo, which is a very low light setting. I'm still going to dull that paint app on his chins down, it's way too harsh. Acetone should work, and you will only need a light application. Isopropyl would also work. 👌😎😎🤘
@@ToysAreTheWay Excellent. I’ve seen guys use acetone to take cell shading off Marvel Legends, and those production “serial” numbers off the thighs of Black Series. I use it for a bunch of paint and adhesive removal. (In my experience it’s skin safe. Wouldn’t be such a thing a 100% acetone nail polish remover otherwise)
Thanks!
Any tutorials in the works?
They should’ve did an oola figure with this set
I totally agree! It has long been rumored that characters like Oola and Hutt Slayer Leia are off the table, but there could always be a chance in the future 😎✌️
anyone know if a restock is on the way? they are all sold out 😢
I ordered it yesterday from Hasbro Pulse, it's currently in stock. 😄 My first buy on Hasbro Pulse. On Click , PayPal Checkout
I would keep an eye on Hasbro Pulse, there may be another production run of this item. Definitely seems like there is a lot of demand!
I could also see this Pulse exclusive possibly becoming available to other fan channels in the future if there is a strong demand, so definitely just keep an eye out. Big Bad Toy Store could have some stock later, or maybe Entertainment Earth. ✌️😎😎✌️
Nice!! Glad you got one! ✌️😎
It looks cool. Will you sell the older jabba since you got the new one?
I'm not sure, I still dig it, and appreciate having it because it was such a high price item for ✌️😎😎✌️
Great review, setup, and photos, but please don't side with Hasbro on the 8D8 elbows. While true the limbs are too thin to do a typical ball socket hinge, as they did with IG-11, all you have to do is look at figures like FX-7 and especially BG-J38 (which shared parts with 8D8 in the film). Both those figures used a simplified hinge for the elbows, and they worked perfectly in the 3.75" scale. There is absolutely no good reason Hasbro couldn't have gone the same route with 8D8 here. They were just trying to cut costs, plain and simple. Arms that only have swivel joints at the shoulder should be barred from TVC! Hope Mr. Stevie rectifies this issue when 8D8 is inevitably reissued on a BoBF card.
Thanks! Oh I totally agree with you that they need to find a solution for these types of small joints. I am a BIG advocate for maximum articulation, but it seems like their new factories have much less lenient rules for the production of some of these smaller joints and swivels. Which is frustrating. ✌️😎😎✌️
I wanted that articulation just like the old FX and BG-J38 but it seems like this 8D8 is scaled even smaller than those and they have even stated that a figure like FX would be much harder to produce these days. At least for mass retail, which makes me concerned that we may never see that release.

This costs the same as the Black Series Jabba 😂
The pricing never makes sense. TVC definitely pays more for less.
Yeah, but we get WAY more, which is rad. The dais, two figures, and all of the soft goods 👌😎😎🤘
Nah I dunno man, we get the dais, with all of the accessories and two carded figures. It aint too bad tbh. But I am sure there's a little mark up here, 375 die hards aren't passing on this one haha
Is it just me or is it tiny
It's definitely a bit smaller, for sure.
Awful. Vc card damaged. So disappointing.
I had to let that figure breathe! ✌️😎😎✌️
Relax with the hand😂😂😂
Jedi mind trick: "No, you will deal with the waves."
Yeah great, _But_ you can't *_BUY_* this anywhere below 3-5 tines MSRP (!) [FBS]
The demand for this set was real!! You should keep an eye on Hasbro Pulse, there may be another production run of this item, but also order cancelations.
I could also see this Pulse exclusive possibly becoming available to other fan channels in the future if there is a strong demand, so definitely just keep an eye out. Big Bad Toy Store or maybe Entertainment Earth could get these later. 👊😎🤘
