I agree with the instructions comment. I personally cannot read instructions off a device without getting a splitting headache. I fail to believe paper is so expensive they cannot afford to include instructions.
I'm glad they include different heads, but I can't help but feel there wasn't an indication they did. I was spoiled with those "alternate option" artwork segments on the back of the boxes. My plan has worked out over the years where I refuse to glue in various alien heads so I can swap them appropriately (for the RPG game). With all the pieces, someone has to build a monstrosity with like five packs.
I really appreciated that you went over the issue with the base. I was a little confused as to which one was correct. It's a little disappointing to see that critical to block on the card as it feels a little rushed/unedited/unprofessional. I am looking forward to adding these into a Rebel force though!
Let’s hope there aren’t too many errors with future expansions, this one had quite a few. Also, thank you for showing them put together and talking about issues. That is so helpful!
The best part is the multiple heads! Twilek head went to my AT-RT Togruta to my Z-6 And the Snivvian to one of the tauntauns -ill find something to do with the Black Sun rider 👍
Maybe, but the Wookiees had a proper military. Swoops just smack too much of pirates or other 'unsavory' organizations versus respectable militias. I am not too thrilled with them being in GAR, especially since that faction is lacking a lot of actually clone vehicles and units, so prioritizing fringe militia, especially militia not seen in any Clone Wars media as fighting with the clones (as far as I know) seems strange.
@@ghostofnobodyinparticular2505 I agree the GAR faction needs more GAR units but i'm looking at just the swoop unit, if you think back to the Ryloth or onderon arc, it make perfect sense for these to represent a local resistance or village militia.
I grabbed two sets of Swoops from my FLGS the day they were released. Only put together one set so far, but my next list uses both of them in a Shadow Collective army and I'm really looking forward to it.
I was working on building my shadow collective last night. Used some black sun with starter imperials vs starter clones plus rex a couple of weeks ago and lost. Vader could just not kill Obiwan for me so I guess fluff accurate game play.
Great to see, thanks as always! Been playing a lot as shadow collective and really excited to add swoop bikes to the collection, think the speed of bikes and Mandos could be a tricky combo to manage as an opponent!
Looking forward to picking this unit up and adding it to my collection. Might need to get at least two to try the various combinations of things you can do.
I doubt they were intended to use the standard speeder bases, but claiming they were would certainly save a huge amount of money in shipping to correct the mistake :P
I was pretty annoyed by this expansion. I live in Australia so I was excited to get them early but then super annoyed not to have the building instructions for over a month. The builds themselves didn't look too hard to reverse engineer but even after waiting for the instructions some parts weren't as clear as they could have been and I also have the bike handle alignment problem. Overall I'll be interested to see how the Mando and IG droids go
I wish republic wasn't left out on all the mercs. All they get are swoop bikes and pikes. And those feel like they are available only so republic can't complain
I'm relatively new to this channel, and I did subscribe because you do a LOVELY job with your various SW Legion presentations. I'm waiting for that swoop bike set to show up...hoping for Sand People on bikes...hilarity will ensue. Also interested in the Mando bike option...and where are the mod kids on scooters? We could have a lot of fun with a table of bikes and scooters.
I was so excited about these I bought 3 of them. 😂 how many did you buy? I’m really looking forward to building and painting these! I really loved the swoop bike level in the shadows of the empire game! And I had that toy as well.
I just don't see myself getting the swoop bikes especially when there a lot better support options out the for the rebels and GAR, maybe for the shadow collective but I'm rather go with more mauldalorians and Blacksun troops any day of the week.
No upgrades is definitely annoying, not a big deal for people who've been into the game for a while, but it's not good for those just getting into the game.

I was really surprised by the lack of upgrade cards

Love your videos. Just recently moved from 40K into this universe. Something both my son and I can enjoy. Keep on making these videos! Very awesome!
The best part is the multiple heads!
Twilek head went to my AT-RT
Togruta to my Z-6
And the Snivvian to one of the tauntauns
-ill find something to do with the Black Sun rider 👍
Not weird for GAR if you think about wookies being in GAR, clones usually ended up supporting or supported by local forces as often as not.

I agree @hismhs, I think these are better suited to separatists than the republic.
I'm just building my first Legion army now, love the videos they have been a great help!
I can't wait to get my Shadow Collective to the table. I can't help but feel the diversity of the faction will shake up the current Meta!

Can’t wait to get my hands on these guys. Doesn’t make that much sense they can go into GAR lists besides for a bit of balancing, but looks fun to me!
I wish we can get some remakes of the earlier imperial and rebels units, like added custimization
that looks so cool to use especially in the different armies!
Love the sculps! I think I’m gonna so my swoop bike riders very similar to you, really like them with axes rather than pistols
I had the same issue with them not lining up properly. These are a blast to field.
I'm thinking about getting these for my rebels, I love the speeder bikes the empire has, not sure they're as food but they look pretty

I cant wait to get these. Looking forward to some more beautifuly detailed minis.
They look good! Might have to get a few to get the head options on the table
I love this unit!!! So many options!!!
The shadow collective is so cool! I just got started with Seperatists, but already love this game!
Oh boy, I wish I could afford the paints to get some shadow collective minis and make them look good
Yes! A seat cushion, the dude has ‘roids. 😂
After multiple games its clear the larger bases were correct and what was tested. AMG is likely covering up a mistake.
I’m sorry man you are simply incorrect. I’ve found firmed that small bases were correct according to both development, and play testing.

I played my swoops last week in my shadow collective. They’re fun. Died quick tho. Bad dice rolls.
I regret getting into the Shadow Collective, so much painting to be done
I wish republic wasn't left out on all the mercs. All they get are swoop bikes and pikes. And those feel like they are available only so republic can't complain
Got mine copy few days ago but haven't opend it yet :)
awesome stuff! always loved the bikes.

Disgusting that this is over $35 and only comes with the unit card and zero upgrades. AMG getting really scummy already. Very dissapointing.
I pray to the AMG-Gods to put instructions back in. I don’t have a printer + it sucks to look up on my small phone :/
Unfortunately, with the reputation that speeders have gameplay wise rn, idk how hyped I am to get these…
I was so excited about these I bought 3 of them. 😂 how many did you buy? I’m really looking forward to building and painting these! I really loved the swoop bike level in the shadows of the empire game! And I had that toy as well.
Oooh, some swoop bikes.
When are they adding the scooter gang from The Book of Boba Fett?
The Handles go on the inside of not outside on the swoop bikes, that's why they weren't lining up properly.
Ahhh that’ll do it! Ha ha!
Can’t wait to airbrush these
I hope i can pick up one of these
Just finished mine this morning. Great models, great fun to paint, so, they'll probably die round one when I get them on the table 😂
😂
Hey where did you find the assembling instructions? The german asmodee link isnt working an at the atm wenbsite i cant find anything
Welp, guess I know what Im not getting lol. Im really waiting on the new mercenary expansions!
Can't wait to see how these play with the Shadow Collective and with Rebels. Just a question how many units would it be best to run with: 1, 2, or 3?
I just don't see myself getting the swoop bikes especially when there a lot better support options out the for the rebels and GAR, maybe for the shadow collective but I'm rather go with more mauldalorians and Blacksun troops any day of the week.
Did you get them through pre-order or via some form of promo deal?
So many heads!
Good stuff!
I love speeder’s
Dang I was gonna ask what size bases you received. How does the new computer do with getting the sheets printed out?
It works fine but I just don’t like having to do it lol.
@@Crabbok agreed.
Anybody know how much this expansion is?
these seem intresting.
Can Dash solo all of them?
My riders didn't line up great as well
No upgrades is definitely annoying, not a big deal for people who've been into the game for a while, but it's not good for those just getting into the game.
getting two boxes
i wish armada would get half, no even 1/20 of the love legion does from amg
swoop swoop
ermergerd lightsaber?!
I don’t like them either. Charge us .50 more for the paper.
😀
Meanwhile droidkas are still garbage costing 75points 🥲
