6:40 to be fair, as a 1:1 scale human being, I have the same problem when I’m wearing a big heavy hood. Crossing the road is a dangerous activity when it’s raining and I have all my rain stuff on
Hey there Justin, I think that you can try to use the left lightning hand of the 40th Anniversary Emperor figure's hand on the BS Count Dooku because it has the better skin colored tone. Also, if you carefully lift open Sideous's right cuff on his sleev, you can put & hide his light saber hilt inside of it & see if it will stay put. Your video was good from 3 months ago & you are correct that Hasbro should've brought out two to three versions of Sideous from Episodes 1(with part of his face showing under his hood), his Chancellor-running version, his now Supreme Chancellor look in Episode II:Attack Of The Clones & The Clone Wars(Cartoon Series) & then his transformation from ROTS. But I'm going to see if one of my other Target Stores or my Game Stop Stores might have him available for me to purchase or not.
The only thing I would possibly change is give him a different head (I wouldn't hope for an exchangeable one) with an insane cackling face that he likes to make during his duel with Yoda. Need me some Ian McDiarmid antics on the shelf. Otherwise a very solid figure and one I've been waiting for.
Alternate pre windu burn head with a removable hood with a deluxe edition having the windu battle robe so we can have the senate and the emperor in one package maybe that progenitor type throne he’s using when he is confronted by the windu and the other council members
The ultimate reuse caption, made me smile.😀 The figure looks pretty good. I like the spread of accessories. The base body seems to work well, though I'm not sure why they have him Tattoine leg wrappings. Luke's Return of the Jedi boots might've looked better. I know soft goods aren't everyone's cup of tea, but they really help with posability. I would prefer a soft goods hood, much better for poseability. They did a good Job with Darth Malgus's.
I just got this guy today. I’m quite impressed with how he looks since I passed on the older versions palpatine since I didn’t like how they looked. I’m pretty much done with black series but I will occasionally make exceptions for characters I like. Darth Sidious is surprisingly worth it. The only other figures I plan to get are redos of rots anakin and obi wan next year. Those figures should be fun. I’m more excited to get a new job bernthal punisher next year since Daredevil born again has him making a return and it looks like he won’t be wearing the trench coat too much which I prefer. But I do look forward to the RotS anniversary line if anakin and obi wan are good.
I dig the expression. It's pretty neutral but has a hint of a smirk. Wouldn't mind a cackling head but for the standard Palpatine, this will do. Somebody's gotta make a half-scarred face as well! That scene almost traumatised me as a kid.
Looks great, can't wait for my pre-order to eventually come in Palps needs more love haha, they could do the version of him when he announces the Empire in the blood red / burgundy robes too
I got mine last week. I love it. I put it with my sith Lords on my top shelf until Yoda arrives and then I'm going to find a way to display them fighting each other along with I can't Wait to get the duel of the Fates 3-pack as I'm going to find a way to display them fighting each other too. Two. So many good stuff this year that I still wish they do more with the Old Republic stuff and sith stuff which palpatine technically accounts for that. So I'm happy
They should have tried experimenting with wired soft hood so you can pull up and down the hood for better head movement, the plastic hood is really limiting the head movement.
Found Osha and Mae at WM and initially passed but then the SW devil on my should told me to get them because...customs!!! They are great to mix and match with Bix parts matching with swapping only you get 2 whole new figures and the mask from Mae works perfectly with Shin Hati!!! Now how do I post pics to comments shakes fist at sky!
1:41 This version of Sidious should have a dark bronze hilt. This hilt is the one from the insert shot at the beginning of the Windu duel. A little BTS for that duel, he used Anakin's lightsaber before rewrites and there are shots of him with Anakin's hilt in his hands during the fight.
This is the first pre-order I ever made for a figure. It started the addiction lol. I don’t get duplicates (for major characters/non-army builders) and I’m a box-opener. However, i just ordered a second one because it makes me so happy seeing Sidious in the box, I want to have a version that I can keep intact, that’s how much I’m happy with it!!
Hasbro got us begging for glups and main characters alike. Would honestly buy any and all Jedi they wanna make, no matter how unimportant they are. Hell, I made Sha’a Gi about a month or so ago. Get me a Yaddle, or an Adi Gallia. We absolutely need Shaak ti, so get off ya ass Hasbro, and take my damn money!
Hello Nate, thanks for sharing your thoughts on the new Darth Sidious black series figure. I just had my loot pile shipped yesterday so I'm just waiting at this point for my Sidious, Destroyer Droids, and other figures from BBTS to arrive. I think it would have been better if the Hasbro team just used the Emperor's figure for Sidious instead of Luke's but it doesn't bother me that much. I'm not looking up Sidious's robes so no big deal to me. It would have been great if we could swap the lightning hands with the Emperor's figure, the new blue lightning looks so much better than the original. Oh well, missed opportunity. Thanks again Nate for giving us a good look at this new figure, I appreciate it. Take care and I'll catch you later my friend, Tom 👍
Great review as always Nate! Got mine in yesterday, almost time for a bigger Separatist shelf. Can't wait for the end of the year top 10 list. You guys are going to have some tough choices to make with all these bangers Hasbro is dropping.
You can get the lightning hands to look good in dooku’s rists without black tack. You just gotta angle the peg ever so slightly and it won’t look like it’s drooping. Just be careful when moving it, as it’s still not the right size peg
He is a Great figure!!!! Hasbro has been pumping out some really cool bangers….. I can’t wait for the Yoda two , the sdcc Maul, and all them leaks , and my Halloween two pack will be in my hands on Friday can’t wait. Hope you have a great week Ed
I went back and watched the palpatine vs Yoda fight. I feel like where the sleeves meet the cloak needs to be slightly smaller and the sleeves need to be just slightly longer.
Great review Nate! This figure should have just been wired soft goods from top to bottom. Such a compromised figure but i don't really know how Hasbro could have done better without making this a deluxe figure. Even though Sidious is needed for the shelf, this is an easy skip. Maybe we'll get an SHF or Mafex Sidious soon.
I watched somebody complaining about the electrifying hands cause they were infused with his fingers but at this point with Hasbro this is a W with his lightsaber and extra LIGHTNING hands 🙌 🔥
I want a nice new palpatine. Maybe with his desk and chair. A yaddle would be nice too. Mas amedda too. Just not enough palpatine adjacent figures around. Maybe a younger Dooku would be cool to go with the D+ show.
I currently have the Emperor Palpatine ROTJ anniversary, and I've always wanted a ROTS version of him. Nice review, and good detail for the Darth Sidious figure. 7:40 as for this part, that's just Hasbro being lazy as usual... very disappointing, but I'll still get it since I am passionate about owning certain characters.
BOBF Luke is close enough to OG Emperor body and Sidious has to be highly articulated, so that reuse is a smart move. Still can’t believe we got the lightning hands though, it’s crazy that they’re in a single release!
Ohhhh..... I said to Sky Hendrix the other day, this figure is not convincing me, and this review hasn't changed my mind... I'm not a fan of that hood being plastic and the robes material, or vice versa. I grabbed some Dark Troopers recently off Spamazon and it made me take Mr Cruiser Luke off the shelf to actually look at him properly. I'd soaked his cloak in water upon receipt of him and pulled it about a bit as I wasn't happy with it, and have pretty much never looked at him again. Then, to my pleasant surprise, when I had him in hand, his cloak now looks fantastic on him. Add Mal's Goose to a really good hood list and factor in the original Emperor hoods weren't terrible anyway, and this choice of plastic hood just looks completely off and weird. I also know it's not a visual problem with using Boba Luke, but that choice really perturbs me for some reason as well. I'm not going to sit there looking up his skirt, but I can't now un-know what for me, is a really sloppy, lazy and almost horrible choice of body... 😢 Why Luke? There's something almost perverse to it. That will bug me forever. If they were going for cheap, lazy re-use, kitbash an Inquisitor body. Obviously I'm a BS shill, so I'm getting it regardless but I'm not happy, nor looking forward to it.
The non swappable laser finger hand pegs also not fitting the other Emperor figures is another nod to how little thought and care went into this figure. Sculpt a head which you can't move in any direction, use a whole exact Luke body we've already got, then chuck an oversized robe on him and call it one of the most important characters in the first 6 films (as we obviously ignore the last 3!)
@@OutOfTheBasement Honestly J? It must be an in-hand thing then? I know I mess about all the time but what I wrote here I did actually mean. I really am having trouble seeing it! And regardless of that, it's still Luke's body which is wrong!!
@@DavidEdge69 It's also ROTS Palpatine, so there's that. The Luke body reuse doesn't bother me, tons of other Black Series figures do that. Do you want me to ruin Bib Fortuna for you? He reuses Dryden Vos' legs! Tee hee! -Justin
J!! I don't know whether I knew that about Bib!? If I did, I've forgotten... That doesn't bother me at all though! Why didn't they use Dryden legs for Palps as well!! That wouldn't bother me either! I know they use loads of re-use and it's never bothered me before, expescially if done subtly or well. Luke and Palps is different. These two bodies should absolutely never meet. They are sworn enemies. The complete opposite of each other. Luke, young, virile, good and athletic. Palps, old, shrivelled, evil and ambling. The re-use is maximum grating to me! It's like a physical toy incarnation of nails screeching hard and slowly down a blackboard while I wither in horror!!
Would have been nice if they had a screaming head and maybe a Darth Malgus hood, also shouldn't that saber hilt have some more gold on it??. cheers mate🍺🍺🍻SI FI
No paint on the fig besides the head buys soft goods and lighting hands…. The hood looks “gooooood” but really limits head posing. Bummer for sure. Glad to finally have a prequel Palps on the shelf. Now give us the red robes version with two heads please
@@OutOfTheBasement nah. He doesn’t need any other paint. Hence the ability for Hasbro to give the figure soft goods and extra hands with lightning effects for standard fig price.
It really bothers me that Hasbro reuse other figures parts when it comes to the release of so beloved/important charachters of the original saga. But when they release figures from Disney's new shows, we got full new sculpts. And we don't give a damn about the new charachters. u.u
How often are you gonna look up palpatines skirt? It doesn’t really matter what’s underneath when it’s gonna be completely covered up anyway, plus its a modern body. it’s already going to have good articulation. Why spend the budget on this when it can go to something with a more unique sculpt, like the b2 that’s in the same wave
But they also did new sculpts for the MagnaGuard, Padawan Ahsoka, Ki-Adi-Mundi, Super Battle Droid, Droideka, they made a new Clone Trooper sculpt, etc. etc. They don't just do new tooling for new media figures. How often are you gonna look up Palpatine's skirt anyway? -Justin
@@OutOfTheBasementthanks for answering in such a respectful way. You are right, this year Hasbro brought us totally new figures from the original saga. I was comparing the Palpatine figure with the wave from The Acolyte.
@@andrewgarcia3851good point there, if a previous body works, Hasbro can save that money and effort for another projects. But I think it would be cool if they made a new body under the robes, since Hasbro got unlimited access to the original sources.
Very clever reusing bobf Luke. Mark Hamill is 5'9" while Ian McDiarmid is 5'10", so it works great for a slightly below 6' character.
That's a very good point! -Justin
