    It's good to finally have him in the Vintage Collection. Feels long overdue for sure and the Book of Boba Fett version will be welcomed as well when they get to it. He'll definitely photograph well. I also would be interested in seeing how your custom was made as it sounds like a lot went into it.
    Anyway I think that's it for now but knowing me I've forgotten some stuff. Looking forward to the next review.

    • @ToysAreTheWay
      @ToysAreTheWay  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      He was wayyy overdue in TVC. Definitely not a bad figure, but yeah I'm pretty into the custom I made, and just need to properly finish the paint apps and weathering.

    Great review!! I, for one would like to see a video on how you did your custom. It looks much better. The proportions look loads better as well as the helmet. I'd also like to see you give a custom of Tython Boba Fett a shot. 🔥🔥

      I was looking at the figure today it really is a great looking one the way he could stand if positioned right and I love how the holster hangs off towards kinda the back of the leg you can see he has that gunslinger stance I just don't like the hoses going to the wrist and the removable armor and rangefinder and his fingers could be a little bit thinner I know he wears gloves just saying a little bit thinner other than that awesome figure!!

    The older Boba helmet is miles better. But the headsculpt is so good I'm displaying him without the helmet on.

    • @ToysAreTheWay
      @ToysAreTheWay  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Totally agree, and that's my plan for the non custom version. I think I'll toss the extra with my Jawas since they had this armor before they met Vanth. ✨👽✨

  • @thesaexplorer
    @thesaexplorer หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Yea I hate that the range finder doesnt swivel...I had to cut mine off, make a small hole on the side of the helmet to fit a small furniture/finish nail in, cut that nail and put it in that hole, and use the pointy part of the nail to insert the range finder on, file the sharp point of the nail and presto, you have a swivel range finder...it ain't perfect, but it works

    • @ToysAreTheWay
      @ToysAreTheWay  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Same! Like there is no reason this far in the game that we should not be seeing perfect Mandalorian helmets with working rangefinders. Clearly it has been done in the past, so once again, I am rather confused on this move. Nice upgrade! I will probably end up doing something similar. 😎😎🤘

  • @julythrunov
    @julythrunov หลายเดือนก่อน

    great review
    I agree
    with everything you said especially the narrow helmet. So weird that they didn’t just use the 186 helmet, I also swapped mine.
    What’s even weirder is, if they were thinking ahead, and designed this to be the Marshal version….why not just close the sides of the armor and insert it over the torso and then insert the arms? its no more or less labor during assembly, and there is absolutely no benefit to be able to remove his armor if he has non removable gauntlets.
    Its a nice figure but just such a bizarre approach

    • @ToysAreTheWay
      @ToysAreTheWay  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks a bunch!!! Yeah, it's such a weird release all around. I was thinking the same thing about the slip on armor...what are the advantages of splitting it on the sides? It very likely could have been something we could just slip over. Bizarre approach indeed. 😎🤘

  • @tannith_toyart
    @tannith_toyart หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I find this figure really underwhelming mostly cuz of the lack of paint, especially since the deluxe tax is allegedly there because of the paint apps.
    I'd really love to see you do a video going over the process of your custom cuz it definitely looks better. I'd also like to see you go a bit further with it and maybe do a new bandana cuz that still looks too bulky to me, just like the armour on the base figure. He could also really use some washes on his clothes and hair and some more painted details on his pants. These are all just suggestions of course but it'd be cool to see how great you could make this figure.

    • @ToysAreTheWay
      @ToysAreTheWay  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I feel that, it took a while for me to get to this review simply because I felt like he was kind of mid grade. We wanted this character in TVC for so long, and while I appreciate finally having him, it's not perfect and it needed to be.
      For sure! I always love suggestions, and was already debating if I wanted to go with a soft goods bandana. I was definitely thinking about adding some washes to the clothes, because he's looking a bit too clean. Especially after I re-watched S2 Ep1 last nite ✨🤘😁🤘✨

  • @trooperwolfie
    @trooperwolfie หลายเดือนก่อน

    Awesome review, I love your custom job, nicely done, it looks much better 👍🏻 I made a custom boba from "the tragedy" , season 2 of the mandalorian using rotj, tusken tribesman and morak boba figures, as on your custom, the upper and lower torso's needed a lot of work to make fit, I had to cut off the top of the morak lower abdomen and fit it to the lower tusken abdomen to get it to fit...but it looks good (video on my channel 😁)

    • @ToysAreTheWay
      @ToysAreTheWay  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks man!! Nice!! I still need to get to that Tython Fett custom someday, and it's always quite the procedure to work with that upper torso. ✨🤘😁🤘✨

  • @r2witco
    @r2witco หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    The helmet does look skinny. I wonder if that was an artistic choice to pass along the slenderness of the character?
    I would recommend drilling a hole for the gauntlet hoses. Glue seems so permanent 😅

    • @ToysAreTheWay
      @ToysAreTheWay  หลายเดือนก่อน

      It's such an odd helmet, but I was wondering the same thing. Maybe due to Vanth's build? But it still doesn't look great or make a ton of sense. The VC 186 helmet looks way better, and they should have just used the Jango helmet with the working range finder instead. ✨🤘😁🤘✨

    • @toddalanbreland
      @toddalanbreland หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@ToysAreTheWay 100% agree. Makes no sense why they keep creating new molds for this helmet after perfecting for VC186 up through the deluxe BOBF boxed figure. Hopefully when they create the Tython version of Boba with this armor they don't use this helmet.

  • @loosecannon6852
    @loosecannon6852 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Since the hips on the VC186 annoy me a lot, using the head from VC186 will be fine by me. I did see a photo comparison somewhere that showed Cobb's actual helmet does look narrower than the Boba helmet used in the tv series. Both actors have different head shapes, so maybe they custom fabricated the helmets for each actor, whether that is logical or not.

    • @ToysAreTheWay
      @ToysAreTheWay  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yeah, VC186 is still a great figure, but it's crazy to see how far the tooling and approach has developed in the couple years since then. Interesting, I thought the helmet looked pretty much the same in the show, but I may have to take a second look ✌️😎😎✌️

    • @ToysAreTheWay
      @ToysAreTheWay  หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      They aren't B1 Battle droid gummy but they do have some flex to them. But to be honest I think most of our figures are being made from a softer plastic for sue, but I wouldn't say they are too bendy. At least mine haven't been ✨👽✨

    This is not a deluxe figure. No reason for a big ugly card other than to give an optical illusion that the customer is getting more. $25, same price as a highly detailed Black Series figure.

    • @ToysAreTheWay
      @ToysAreTheWay  หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Hahaha I think the card is bigger to allow for multiples to be stacked together and fit in a specific box that is a certain width. Therefore allowing them to fix X amount of boxes in a shipping container. A lot of decisions are a result of shipping and retail shelf design. I am not totally down with it, but I get the reasoning behind it.
      I definitely agree, that for the "deluxe" price and title we should see more. Sure, he is new tooling and it's kind of clear that if we want more new tools, we have to pay, but Cobb could have used more paint apps, and maybe another accessory or two. I think the camotono with the silicax crystals would have been cool. 👊😎🤘

      There was so much anticipation for this character, and it's a really good figure, but just has some odd choices in terms of execution. The helmet is inexcusable though, we should not be seeing slip ups on Mandalorian helmets at this point in TVC, there have been perfect versions prior and this one is simply baffling. ✌️😎😎✌️

      @ToysAreTheWay  23 วันที่ผ่านมา

      It's not my favorite, that's for sure. We waited a long time for Vanth and he needed to be 100% new and perfect. Both versions, armored and non-armored. But Hasbro has delivered some kick ass figures this year so I wouldn't go so far to say that. Other lines like Hammond Collection are cool but no where near the quality we see with TVC. Just sayin ✌️😎😎✌️
