@26:09 Finally figured out what the wheel leg slots/nibs are for and why it sticks out just so far - When the wheel leg is pushed completely in, lift him up and rotate the wheel 90 degrees and it basically will slide out from gravity (that’s what those little slots at the top are for - nibs inside the body hold it in place until rotated then the slots slide down). Works quite well, but wish Hasbro would have documented it somewhere (or if they did I haven’t seen it).
Hands down one of the best waves of Black Series in a long time. Such a refreshing wave. Still need Zeb to finish off the Rebels crew and Black Krrsantan for the Aphra crew but man o man is this wave fun. Aphra up there in favorites Black Series figure since Tarkin and Jaina Solo.
The Fwoosh, from someone who is also mostly into the movies, I have to say that Dr. Aphra is amazing. It's as if Han Solo mated with Indiana Jones and had a young lady that loves homicidal droids. If you read but one comic series, make it this one!
i really like the idea of this wave, aside from Obi Wan the rest of the wave is rather obscure characters to most average joe star wars fans. I really hope we get more people like this in the future, i mean obviously one of them being Zeb (rumors are we will get him before the end of the year).
@@AaronMosmeyer Yeess!! Shes awesome. Id like her bounty hunter look personally but any Ventress is a win. Id also dig an Obi from the show, main look and that sweet Mandolorian armor, and an Anakin in his look.
So excited to grab Ezra and Chopper! And Zeb has to be inevitable at this point. I won't hold my breath for Old Man Rex, but he'd be a great addition, as well!
Love this wave!! Just put in my order on entertainment earth. My walmart was not got new black series since solo came out. How is that even a thing!? I’m so behind on action figures though because sometime last winter I was given a few lego sets (the falcon and anakins star fighter) and that unleashed the flood gates. I was taken back to my childhood and love of lego. Now that i can buy the big sets my parents wouldn’t and convince the wife they’re for the kids too lego has taken over and kinda spiraled out of control. I have huge lego builds popping up all over the house they are displayed. My house has become a child’s dream toys in every room. Soon the wife will snap i have dismantled several shelves of her knick knacks to make room for toys. I’m going to try and convince her to let me buy the house next door and make it my own personal play house then I can display my entire 35 years of collecting. Robot stay clear of lego it will suck you in I promise. I can’t tell you though how beautiful it is to see my huge rebel squadron I have assembled it is a site to behold!
Having more rebel figures is always a win in my book, not really familiar with the comic characters but I’ll probably pick up BeeTee cause he looks so cool And I love prequel figures!!! I now have Qui-Gon Jinn, Darth Maul, battle droids And Obi Wan!!! Phantom menace figures FTW!!!! Now can we get a Captain Panaka and a pod racer vehicle set?
This wave is perfect for me,the Obi wan is perfect on the shelf with my FiguArts Maul(missed the FiguArts Obi)Finishing off the Rebels crew besides Zeb,and Aphra’s crew is awesome too
Love this review. I loved Rebels, & I too NEED Chopper! I may get him from my go to comic shop in the Bronx next week.. Collector Cave. Agree w/ya on the hips!
Thank you, thank you for pointing out the evils of the 45-degree hips. The vintage collection should be copying the Black Series articulation, not the other way around. Ezra was looking so great.
Ah yes another wave we won't get in the panhandle, I'll be looking forward to not seeing these in stores anywhere near me being forced to pay inflated eBay and Amazon prices!
This is my kinda wave! The OT isn't my era of SW. The Prequels, The Clone Wars, Rebels, current books and comics are my SW. So I'm loving that moved towards that. This Ezra is great but I REALLY hope we get other seasons of the Rebels characters. And maybe Thane Kyrell and Ciena Ree.
Salutations Robo! The Wave 👋 as I see it: 1. Obi Wan is the same as the card, but there are differences. His face is shinier and has a glossy look. Great face print look. Yeah, I'm looking at you Mr. McGregor! 2. Triple Zero is a great droid. Looks cool, but I know nothing about him in the comics and that's great too. It's a droid. Going to pick up an extra one, paint it silver like the droid in Phantom Menace. 3. Bee Tee is another droid with a great head sculpt and gear. Love the extras...another sweet droid. 4. Dr. Aphra...dont know her, don't care. Easy pass for now. We shall see. 5. Ezra Bridger is well done. Love Rebels. Now we need a Zeb to finish the set of heroes (we are waiting Hasbro 😏) 6. Chopper is super great. Flame mode. Wheel mode. Arm mode. And a spunky droid to boot! All in all, looks great. Hasbro has stepped up and the game is on! And as always a great review.
I dig the Paula Abdul reference. I feel like I take two steps forward when I get my paycheck, and then two steps back when Hasbro released new Siege Transformers and Marvel Legends figures.
I pre-ordered this entire wave from my local Gamestop... So far in 4 separate trips to the store, I have Ezra, 000, BT-1, and Aphra... Still waiting on my Chopper and Obi-Wan. Kind of strange that the store just didn't get the entire case all at once.
Have Chopper on order! The rest weren’t yet available oddly enough, or perhaps everybody else already sold out except Chopper, who I want most of all (but the Death Drioids are tickling my fancy big time!). But Hasbro....oh Hasbro, to use your 1 step forward 2 (or more) steps back, just as FacePrint or RealPrint, whatever they call it, was just looking like SH Figuarts was getting amazing competition for a third of the price - they have to go and screw it up! I swear they have a SuccessNotOfficer constantly on patrol at Hasbro so any time they get close to doing something right or awesome, Officer OhNoYouDont steps up with a truncheon and cow prod to make sure they will...not...succeed! So FacePrint looks fantastic on the first few figures...Rey, Mace, Leia and others...and we can’t have that, especially with waves and archive figs doing well, so Officer NoUDont trips the gloss coating reserved for the eyeballs and makes it cover the entire face! (Or most of it, I swear Rey that you show has a matte band at the very top of her forehead immediately below her hairline). These figures don’t look sweaty, they just look wrong. And glossy eyes that added that extra tiny bit of hyper realism is now all over the face and it’s ridiculous, shiny faces with shiny cheap plastic looking bodies, but no happy people that I can find (yeah, bad REM reference shows I’m grouchy and old!). So SH Figuarts has once again effortless pulled ahead...at least 2 steps. And yes, I agree (for the umpteenth time, and will continue until Hasbro freaking fixes it) Hasbro’s Astromech body is wayyyy TOO SMALL!! FIX IT HASBRO! Except you can’t fix something that messed up so make a new sculpt, stop popping out even more incorrectly scaled astromechs and make a new R2-D2 that comes at least somewhat close to the amazing Figuarts, Bandai and Mafex R2’s. And make a new properly scaled IG-88 while you’re at it because he is also too freakin small. I’ll volunteer to do your scale research for FREE because whoever you pay to do it SUCKS in many instances that are easily demonstrated. ...Wow, okay, didn’t realize I needed a venting session so bad, and sorry to sound like a wack job who missed his medication, but I missed my medication and my therapist says it can lead to emotional outbursts. ;-)
Pretty solid wave I'd say. I think Zeb will definitely be revealed at SDCC or leaked before it. Ultimately, I'd hope they reissued Sabine, Hera, Kanan, and Thrawn with the photo real whether single packed or in a 4 pack with more accessories. Really hoping for some Expanded Universe characters like Kyle Katarn (DF1 or 2 look), Dark Troopers, or hell, even Dash Rendar.
Fantastic wave, however I’m not that familiar with the comic book characters. Despite that the droids are awesome. Obi-Wan looks incredible too. Great review. Love that you did the whole wave in one video review. Well done!
This was my first time watching one of your reviews, and I have to say I really enjoyed it, liked how you did the whole wave and not just one figure. Your're definitely right about Zeb hasbro needs to stop messing about and get him to his crew and family, but of cause this will then mean we still require Agent Kallus (w/removable helmet).
I ordered this wave from Walmart at $18 per figure. It has now been delayed twice. First it was “ready for pickup on July 3rd” then “ready July 6th” and now August 1st. Not a happy camper.
Hey Robo.,have you found a suitable stand for shelf diving Grievous? I'm currently using 2 of those p.o.s BS stands with a bit of blu tac to hold him in. Any ideas?
Not yet, I haven't even actually put him in the display yet, still lying on top of a stack of boxed figures. I'm thinking a smaller stand like Revo or figma. Something with an arm but not big enough to stick out too far.
This looks to be a very solid wave and the droids are definitely cool! I love the Obi Wan as well. Looks like I may need to find a way to rig my Bandai 0-0-0 with the murder hands. XD
I really wish they'd use a figure slot, or even potentially a wave, dedicated to the force unleashed games. I say a wave because starkiller has so many outfits, you could make a wave out of it.
Great review robo! I like the whole wave reviews. And oh boy I'd love them to continue the doctor aphra gang and make a black krrsantan, which is a wookie. I was excited for obi wan and ezra too, but y joints just kill it for me. Y joints in my opinion is hasbro regressing to the dark ages.
You should read all comics with Dr. Aphra. Start with the 2015 Darth Vader series, which is just five graphic novels. Then go for Aphra's own series, which is completely insane as much as it's so much fun. You can also read them online too.
I don't want the Aphra or her droids but I see potential to make 000 into a custom episode 2 CPO so maybe I'll snag one when he's inevitably on clearance
"Torture hands!" LOL. Great vid, Robo. Sad to hear about the weird hip/leg articulation for that Padawan Obi-Wan. That's the only figure I'm really interested in. I really hope they re-release Qui-Gon with the photo real head. I'm also annoyed that the Celebration Obi-Wan Padawan came with additional "force" hands. Those should've come with the regular release as well. >:(
Didn't it just come with the two finger doink hand that he didn't even use until later movies? And yeah, we need a Qui-Gon redo, the head was another experiment that was interesting but didn't quite hit the mark.
Allen Weaver Right? The Dark Ages of Marvel Legends. Seems, just like with Marvel Legends at that time, I may be taking a break from collecting Black Series, because I refuse to buy any figure with those shitty ass hips.
Crap, I had no idea what they'd done with Ezra's hip articulation. That is, very confusing and a hair worrying. I gotta get him for my Rebels team, but damn. Really, really hope they give us Zeb, though.
Man, I regret passing up on Ezra coz now the price for one is ridiculous! I hope Hasbro makes it right and release more of Ezra figures. Totally agree about Zeb tho... we need him!
I'm really kicking myself for not getting the Dr. Aphra figure when I came across it at my local Gamestop store a year ago. Now it more than tripled in price, especially on Ebay..
I bought the Qui-Gon from however long it was ago and with the Obi-Wan and Maul coming out i'm going, "Well sh&t, i bought Qui-Gon, now i have to buy every phantom menace figure forever"
As soon as you brought the Jaina figure into view my mind immediately went to using her for ML stand-in Quake and with an Aphra headswap you'd get Agent May...
Its great but i would really like a darth nihilus figure and a jedi temple guard figure cuz in the 3.75 saga legends the articulation of the temple guard is not good , you cant even rotate the wrist to do a pose of a double bladed lightsaber
Chopper and Ezra are definitely the best figures in this wave, my personal opinion anyways. And I love Aphra and BT-1 as well. 000 and Obi Wan are good figures too. So overall, another great wave. Come on Hasbro, give us Zeb, Kallus and even Governor Pryce already.
Yeah, Chopper just got to my place. I absolutely love him. Don’t even care for the the show. All I need of Aphras group is BT-8. All in all, dope wave. Even with the dumb legs. Ahah
If I had the 000 figure, I probably wouldn’t have both of the “murder hands” in use at the same time. Same for BT1. I’d probably only have one of the big guns on him.
I've heard but never used a hair dryer to lose joints hott water from just sink hot works and I've used that and lithium greece definitely helped a wwe fiend fig of mine but nothing worse than having to glue an arm or leg on in a semi to permanent spot cause they painted it shut or just had the thing way too tight
It's funny; I dont "play" with my figures, I usually just open 'em, mess around with the possibility for a second, then throw them on the shelf in a rather neutral pose. So I have no idea why im complaining about the hip joints on Kenobi and Ezra, but goddamn do I hate those joints. We gotta make it known this is not what the mojority wants or otherwise Hasbro is gonna start making this a common thing with newly scupted figures from here on out.
Preview night two weeks🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻 we're not on a first name basis or anything but I always look forward to bullshitting with you for 10 or 15 minutes every year at San Diego good times!!!
I’m down for Zeb BUT he needs to come with photo real Kanan and Sabine heads. Those are the only two that seriously suffer from the old paint technique.
As an EU fan, this might be one of my favourite waves yet. great character choices, great execution, but I'm not a fan of those hips either. Otherwise, Hasbro did a great job across the board. Also, the Aphra comics are a blast. There's really nothing else like them in Star Wars.
7:39 "I don't see a protocol droid running down prey."
HK-47: *Menacing statement*: Yes, no one does. Until it is too late.
"I'd kinda like to see something like this effect for Boba Fett." *Dan Larson has entered the chat*
*Dan Larson:* 😳
I’d like an Inquisitor from Rebels.
Other than the weird legs, that ezra figure is kinda perfect imo
@26:09 Finally figured out what the wheel leg slots/nibs are for and why it sticks out just so far - When the wheel leg is pushed completely in, lift him up and rotate the wheel 90 degrees and it basically will slide out from gravity (that’s what those little slots at the top are for - nibs inside the body hold it in place until rotated then the slots slide down). Works quite well, but wish Hasbro would have documented it somewhere (or if they did I haven’t seen it).
Seems like a good wave to me! I would love a Zeb too. I really don't mind the newer format of reviewing the whole wave at once.
Funny you say that

Idk anything about that yet I see Christmas wishes realized. 😉
Hopefully a Ventress too.
I'm still hoping for Kyle Katarn and Jan Ors.
@@AaronMosmeyer Yeess!! Shes awesome. Id like her bounty hunter look personally but any Ventress is a win. Id also dig an Obi from the show, main look and that sweet Mandolorian armor, and an Anakin in his look.
*sees chopper with two lightsabers and all of a sudden his name makes sense* :P
I love when you review a whole wave in one video
It feels special
So excited to grab Ezra and Chopper! And Zeb has to be inevitable at this point. I won't hold my breath for Old Man Rex, but he'd be a great addition, as well!
Would LOVE an old man Rex!

Great review and I’m looking forward to getting mine , I still am in shock that we don’t have a Bib fortuna though
Oh man, sooooo many characters to mow through, I need them all.
That obi wan + the upcoming general kenobi will make a great custom! I've been wanting the perfect kenobi and this might get me to where i want
This is my kinda wave! The OT isn't my era of SW. The Prequels, The Clone Wars, Rebels, current books and comics are my SW. So I'm loving that moved towards that. This Ezra is great but I REALLY hope we get other seasons of the Rebels characters. And maybe Thane Kyrell and Ciena Ree.
I feel like the wash on Obi Wan was not Needed but that’s just me. Obi Wan is my favorite Black Series figure.
had to rewatch to make sure ezra's legs were actually supposed to move lol
Salutations Robo!
The Wave 👋 as I see it:
1. Obi Wan is the same as the card, but there are differences. His face is shinier and has a glossy look. Great face print look. Yeah, I'm looking at you Mr. McGregor!

I’m still trying to get an Ezra for a decent price.. 50 dollars is hard for me for a plastic figure. Haha great stuff man!
Fabulous Disaster you can find one for under 80?
I might pick up this whole wave
Today I found a great deal for him. He was 80 bucks with a box and trust me 50 bucks is gonna be hard to find. I don't know if you can get him for 50.
Already ordered Ezra and Chopper. Just need that Zeb now!
holy butterfly joint batman
Another amazing upload, you are killing it Robo!
Thanks man!
@@TheFwoosh no problem, you are doing a great job and deserve the best 😄
The wheel and rocket accessories are extremely loose on my chopper. Anyone else have this problem?
No, mine is a pretty strong connection, takes some force.
"Torture hands!" LOL. Great vid, Robo. Sad to hear about the weird hip/leg articulation for that Padawan Obi-Wan. That's the only figure I'm really interested in. I really hope they re-release Qui-Gon with the photo real head. I'm also annoyed that the Celebration Obi-Wan Padawan came with additional "force" hands.

Didn't it just come with the two finger doink hand that he didn't even use until later movies? And yeah, we need a Qui-Gon redo, the head was another experiment that was interesting but didn't quite hit the mark.
Ooops, he did come with a flatter hand, huh? Hmmm.
Holy Cow Brother Robo, I have to collect certain Black series figures again! I must have that Doc and the armed R2 unit*****!
Yeah, that assassin droid came out way better than I expected!
Didn't Hasbro learn several years ago with ML that the Y / 45 degree hips were dodoo?
Allen Weaver Right? The Dark Ages of Marvel Legends. Seems, just like with Marvel Legends at that time, I may be taking a break from collecting Black Series, because I refuse to buy any figure with those shitty ass hips.
Hasbro fucked up bring the y joint back.
Crap, I had no idea what they'd done with Ezra's hip articulation. That is, very confusing and a hair worrying. I gotta get him for my Rebels team, but damn. Really, really hope they give us Zeb, though.
Pretty solid wave here, gotta say.
Man, I regret passing up on Ezra coz now the price for one is ridiculous! I hope Hasbro makes it right and release more of Ezra figures. Totally agree about Zeb tho... we need him!
25:40 GENERAL KENO- oh wait
Zeb will probably get announced soon as a deluxe figure
Would be cool to display 000 and B T 1 with the Tarken interrogation droid.
I'm really kicking myself for not getting the Dr. Aphra figure when I came across it at my local Gamestop store a year ago. Now it more than tripled in price, especially on Ebay..
My favorite are three. Obi-wan, Dr. Aphra and BT-1. I have those 3. I really don't care about the rest from this wave.
I bought the Qui-Gon from however long it was ago
and with the Obi-Wan and Maul coming out i'm going, "Well sh&t, i bought Qui-Gon, now i have to buy every phantom menace figure forever"
Miss the old boxes already...
Why?
@@TheFwoosh the old big text on the side of the box
@@TheFwoosh luke sky- obi wan ke-
As soon as you brought the Jaina figure into view my mind immediately went to using her for ML stand-in Quake and with an Aphra headswap you'd get Agent May...
Ooo, not bad ideas!
“If Artoo is the family dog,” said Dave Filoni, executive producer of the show Star Wars Rebels, “Chopper is the cat.” Chopper looks great.
Lol as im watching him struggle getting the figure out of packaging ,my k2 droid falls over lol
such an excellent wave! just waiting on finding chopper to finish this out!
poor zeb lmao
Rumors are hes coming.. but until we see something... not holding my breath
Hey BT-1, war machine called. He wants his shoulder mounted weapons back.
Whoa nelly, I just started Rebels and I've been looking into the figures and Ezra is ridiculous on the secondary market
Thank God !! SHF exists !!
I luv gus
He needs his own series
Would love a review of the chrome pen. On a figure play day maybe?
I had to go digging back, but I did a quick look at it here: th-cam.com/video/DBu2dhbCPrU/w-d-xo.html It was indeed a play day, haha.
Robo, you should know, everyone wants reviews from you all the time and any way we can get it. Whole waves, single figures. Weeklies. JUST. DO IT.
Haha, okay, okay.
I just realized I want an episode 1 Anakin with his pod racer as another vehicle black series fig lol
Forgot to mention that, not having Qui-Gon's head threw me off, haha. We need a kid Anakin just to finish all the versions.
Its great but i would really like a darth nihilus figure and a jedi temple guard figure cuz in the 3.75 saga legends the articulation of the temple guard is not good , you cant even rotate the wrist to do a pose of a double bladed lightsaber
Zeb is probably gonna be shown at sdcc
Chopper and Ezra are definitely the best figures in this wave, my personal opinion anyways. And I love Aphra and BT-1 as well. 000 and Obi Wan are good figures too. So overall, another great wave. Come on Hasbro, give us Zeb, Kallus and even Governor Pryce already.
Ooo, Kallus and Pryce would be awesome too. And old man Rex.
I pre ordered these, and most of them went from pre order to back order already lol
This was the first fwoosh vid i had ever watched
I want a black series episode 5 Han Solo or and also a Greedo
They already made both of those, right?
I believe The LORE MASTER has made a video explaining the life of Dr. Aphra.
Yeah, Chopper just got to my place.
I absolutely love him. Don’t even care for the the show.
All I need of Aphras group is BT-8.
All in all, dope wave. Even with the dumb legs. Ahah
Yeah, the legs don't kill it for me, but I'd like them even more if they weren't like they are, haha.
Love the segways! "we'll take a look at it after... CHOPPER (BAM!)"
If I had the 000 figure, I probably wouldn’t have both of the “murder hands” in use at the same time. Same for BT1. I’d probably only have one of the big guns on him.
We need Zeb and Bodhi to complete the Rebels and Rogue one crews
I've heard but never used a hair dryer to lose joints hott water from just sink hot works and I've used that and lithium greece definitely helped a wwe fiend fig of mine but nothing worse than having to glue an arm or leg on in a semi to permanent spot cause they painted it shut or just had the thing way too tight
It's funny; I dont "play" with my figures, I usually just open 'em, mess around with the possibility for a second, then throw them on the shelf in a rather neutral pose. So I have no idea why im complaining about the hip joints on Kenobi and Ezra, but goddamn do I hate those joints. We gotta make it known this is not what the mojority wants or otherwise Hasbro is gonna start making this a common thing with newly scupted figures from here on out.
It just makes them that much harder to pose and even stand. The other way works so well, why change it?
Don’t forget the grand inquisitor
Ordered Ezra and Chopper passed on the rest, but torture hands do look cool!
Great review Robo, oh trust me Hasbro listens to us consumers. We'll have Zev early as fall or holidays this year
Meh. Still waiting for black series 6 inch hammerhead, walrus man and Snaggletooth. Maybe even a death star droid. Thanks Robo.
We NEED a Black Series Hammer Head!
The exclusive Obi Wan has extra hands that were not included with this version.
now that you have Aphra and the droids, they need to bring us the Wookie she has with her in the comics
Yup, definitely need the rest!
What do star wars have against making a decent large death star , or imperial star cruiser
I need these droids badly. I somehow want Chopper and BT-1 to fight each other in a cartoon, but unlikely. ;p
Preview night two weeks🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻 we're not on a first name basis or anything but I always look forward to bullshitting with you for 10 or 15 minutes every year at San Diego good times!!!
No kidding, time is flying!
Great video Robo. Thanks brother
Thanks man!
I am done collecting Star Wars because I'm already being bled dry but there's no way i can this wave.
(I can skip Euan McGregor i guess)
I’m down for Zeb BUT he needs to come with photo real Kanan and Sabine heads. Those are the only two that seriously suffer from the old paint technique.
I already figure he'll be a deluxe, but photo real heads for the others? I'd pay even more.
Well that worked out really well
Damn that's a nice looking wave
As an EU fan, this might be one of my favourite waves yet. great character choices, great execution, but I'm not a fan of those hips either. Otherwise, Hasbro did a great job across the board. Also, the Aphra comics are a blast. There's really nothing else like them in Star Wars.
Yeah, it's awesome to see characters I never thought we'd get in plastic. I want more main OT but digging deep is also just as fun.
