Thanks Justin. Yes, the joints look better on this version but it's still hard to put him in dynamic poses. Especially when you want to do it on a rotating base like me for this video. I have to say that the joints slowly became loose as I posed him and a stress mark started to appear on one elbow joint withou me even moving him too much. Also the figure is just to short for the scale so I would still go with bandai model kit. But when we are talking about looks this is a great looking figure. Just don't pose him on the shelf without some kind of stand. 😃
@@ActionDisplayChannel yeah i just got this figure and it takes me about 5-7 minutes to make it stand up without falling, dynamic or action-like poses are hard without a stand so i will probably get one soon
Hello there.... Damn this Grievous looks amazing, especially because of the poses you pulled off, and I love the cape work here. It's always a treat to see you posted a video. Great one. 👍
@@restock_1731 I'm glad I did, yes. 😅 Honestly, I don't have the original so I can't compare them 100% but from what I can tell it is the same figure with maybe a bit tighter joints. If you can't get the model kit or even the first bs version this is the way to go because it's the only option. But bandai model kit Grievous is the best figure by far.
@@ActionDisplayChannel I am unlucky (🤣) to have the BS version, and he's held up by one of those dynamic pose stands. I saw another review and they said the joints seem a bit better, so that's a bonus. I really would like to get this Grievous at some point, the color scheme is pretty awesome looking. I'll have to look into the model kit also. 👍
@@restock_1731 Stand is a must have for this figure. Model kit even comes with a stand designed for that Grievous figure. I would say get that kit but his prices are high now. If you can get this cw version go for it. You won't be disappointed.
That was pretty badass dude...just got mine a couple days ago w cw mace and arc trooper...I'm going to practice w my original grevious lol...can't wait for next one!!
Thank you. It's a great looking figure but it's still hard to make him stand in a dynamic pose. True, you can put him in few dynamic poses and even in one legged stand but he will fall. My task was to do this on a turntable so I had to use posing stands. 😃
Great video I got very unlucky with my grievous he broke straight out the box, after I glued his torso back on I put a saber in his hand, they wouldn't hold, then the hand snapped!
I feel like this figure is easy to brake and it's just because of the way he is designed. I barely moved his arms and already there are stress marks on few elbows. I'm so sorry to hear that your figure broke.
@@ActionDisplayChannel ah it's OK they should have maybe sacrificed the hands to be bigger and maybe on a ball joint or make it so the arms come with separate split arms like the model kit (which I might get, is it worth it?)
@@elderguard I agree. Oh model kit is 💯 worth it. I've made that video and you can see how the figure looks and pose. It's in episode 43 if you want to check it out.
@@ActionDisplayChannel OK is there one for a decent price because when I look all I can see is them for £80 which is a lot for a £30 model kit, and yeah I'm going to check out the posing session.
@@elderguard Thanks. Yes, prices are a hugh problem. This kit is hard to find now for a good price but that's a problem in general for a lot of these SW figures. I hope that in time you will find one with better price.
Besides color of course, is the cape different from the ROTS version? It looks a lot more sleek and doesn't completely wrap around his neck like the ROTS version
The cape is not the same. It has only one layer, not two like the original one and feals cheap. There's not much flex in this type of fabric but it can get the job done.
Do you know is he same mold as older Grievous? And if it is same was he pain In the ass to get stand up. Im waiting for my normal Grievous from BBTS to arrive In my pile of loot
I don't have the first version but I would say that it's the same figure. I guess they did make the joints a bit tighter but from my experience some joints got loose the more I messed around with them. I would also say that he is still hard to stand because of the way his feet are designed. There are no ankle rockers and that's the biggest problem.
I still don't have him in my collection but I did already made a video for Arc Trooper Echo. It's episode 38 on the channel. From what I can tell it's the same body so the articulation is the same.
@@ActionDisplayChannel tragic 😔 I wanted to make him a fine addition to my 4in collection. But if I start collecting 1 six inch I’ll have to collect more.
Incredible work! I'm glad they seemed to have tightened up those loose joints of the original Grievous. -Justin

2:47 OMG….he looks like a living X-Wing. So awesome! Great poses my legend. I picked up some great ideas for my shelf too. 😁
Thanks! Always happy to help. 😃
this channel doesn't get enough credit for all his inspiring poses
Thank you for your kind words
And once again I am here watching an action figure on a turntable 👍🏻 Enjoyed the video. Especially the multi figure poses
Thank you! 🥰
I'm old school...still afraid something will break, not sure how far to move joints. That's gone now, but I still watch your content just for fun!
@@allanbard6048 Thank you for being here. 😃
Great posing!! You really tell a story. Hard figure to work with but love you using a stand. Very cool
Thank you 🥰

@@ActionDisplayChannel so this Grievous wasn't much better than the first one it sounds like. Good thing you got this guy out of your way now. Lol

U made some dope looking poses bro 🔥
Thank you 🥰
Simply incredible posses, how did you get the cape to drape like that? Did you use some sort of wire? If so what kind?
Thanks! I used wire for some poses here. It's a simple thin wire that you can find in stores, nothing special. 😃
@@ActionDisplayChannel awesome! Thanks so much for the advice I’m definitely going to be using it for some of my figures
Thank you. He is hard to stand and I find his Cape.. Errr too small. Might get a new Cape so he can cover up stand like in the show.
It is a bit to small, I agree. Fortunately that's an easy fix. 😃
Gostei como vc fez a pose com o ferro atrás da capa 👍👍👍👍
Thank you 🥰
Love the figure! May I ask where you get your stands?
A lot of people asked me that so I've made a video about it. Here it is: th-cam.com/video/c2MPKxVJ9Qk/w-d-xo.html

Do the arc trooper Fordo next time, he seems difficult to pose

Is this a six Inch or four inch
6 inch

@@cosinguspalpatine4449 I understand that. Same goes for me and that vintage collection. Can't collect all the lines.
@@ActionDisplayChannel dude if I won a power ball I might lose it all buy SW figures
