    Lol 😆 I love the quote "if not..., I'm sorry, it's unfortunate how limited this one was...."

    Great video mate, glad you managed to pick one up!! I didn’t spot the sneaky thermal detonator you could remove from the backpack! I’ll also forgot it was a phase 1.5 helmet and I kept calling it phase 2 🤦🏻‍♂️ At least a pro did a proper video 😃 Fantastic stuff my friend👊🏻

      Thank you, thank you! I watched yours the same day we dropped ours, but I forgot to comment! Have to feed the algorithm or else it’ll get hangry.
      Ah, that thermal detonator feels satisfying to take out too. Same goes for Jesse! And don’t fret about the helmets, we can’t win them all.
      Thanks as always for watching man! Glad the uploads weren’t a month apart this time around. 😂

    its insane that you only have 5000 subs but it feels a lot more personal this way, like a friend sharing his hobby

    • @BostonCollectors
      @BostonCollectors  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yeah, TH-cam’s the long game and the algorithm can be finicky I find. It’s all about trends.
      We’ll get there in due time, we’re just enjoying the ride as we go. 😄
      Appreciate you for watching, indecay! 🙏🏼🙌🏼

    I loved the video, the images were incredible. Could you tell me where the stone base you used to place the two troopers is from, please?

    • @BostonCollectors
      @BostonCollectors  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you! The base is from the Hot Toys Endgame Battle Damaged Thanos. It’s the only one they’ve made so far for any release.

    I don't think the range finder is meant to be used with the binoculors - you can't move the range finder into position with the binoculars on.
    I really like this trooper, but what I was afraid of turned out to be true - he's so unique he stands out from all the other clones.
    Great review, Boston.

    • @BostonCollectors
      @BostonCollectors  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yeah, more than likely not, but it looks pretty cool decked out that way. But, I did mention it isn’t possible to articulate both.
      He’s definitely a “LOOK AT ME” figure. I have him posed with Rex, Cody, Anakin and Obi-wan and due to his color scheme I can’t help but look at him first. It’ll be hard to find a spot for him…
      Thanks for watching, Daniel.

    Good review. I think this one might unfortunately be priced high in the aftermarket considering a lot of people collect clones and army build in contrast to the other very obscure 1500 edition figures like president Loki, arena Boba Fett and cartoon iron man. This will probably not get as expensive as WB100 wonder woman but that this was limited to only 1500 is ridiculous considering even the artisan line are all within 2500-4000 so far.

    • @BostonCollectors
      @BostonCollectors  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I absolutely agree. It might not be any time soon, but it DEFINITELY will. I think the Umbra Operative and Arena Fett will go for crazier prices than we see now.

    Great video as always! I had a freak out moment on mine. When mine got to my cart I had put another figure in my cart earlier and didn’t want to buy two at once 😂 was able to go back and remove and secure it luckily!

    • @BostonCollectors
      @BostonCollectors  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Noooooooo! 😭
      I would’ve had a panic attack, heart attack and an anxiety attack all at the same time if it were me. Glad you were able to secure him though after fighting with loading that day. It took ages for me to even check out. I was worried. 😭
      Thank you for watching, LordKoolAid!

    @DuskRaiderXIV 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Great video as always. I ended up grabbing mine through a reseller which unfortunately was above retail but I’m really happy with it. The Kama is a bit… off.. as you said, but I can overlook that due to just how vibrant and unique he is. The Commander (or Phase II) helmet was an odd choice in this release considering that it was never used in the game itself. I think the Phase 1.5 is the quintessential design for me but to each their own.
    Keep up the great work and I can’t wait to see the next video!

    • @BostonCollectors
      @BostonCollectors  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      As long as you’re happy with it, that’s really all that matters. Sometimes you’ll have to come out of pocket a little more than others. Especially if they slap that ✨exclusive✨ sticker on it.
      I was able to fix the Kama somewhat, but he demands so much attention I can place a few figures in front of him and not have my attention drawn to the Kama too bad.
      I wonder what brought that design on. When I think of the character, the phase 1.5 comes to mind first, but it just looks so much cooler with the other one. It fills out the armor a bit more visually to me.
      Thank you and thank you so much for watching! We just have to lay down the voiceover for the Super Battle Droid and he’s up next. Appreciate the words of encouragement! 🙌🏼🙏🏼

    Great review as always brother. I was lucky enough to secure this myself. It is exceptional in terms of how unique it is for sure. Personally I like to look of the phase 1.5 helmet with the range finder attached. 🙌🏻

    Yeah I had to pick this up in the secondary market, luckily less than $500. He’s just too awesome looking and who can say no to another clone, and an ARC at that

    I hope they will rework the phase 1.5 helmet fot future ARC Troopers. In this case it´s just the fin addet on the phase 2 helmet, but it should be a lot more like the diffrent mouth piece and whole back of the phase 1 helmet. But it´s still fine for this figure since it should represent the ARC from the videogame

    • @BostonCollectors
      @BostonCollectors  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yeah, I get what you mean 100%. It was hard to make an argument for it in live action since we haven’t seen it yet. But, I bet it made it THAT much easier for them to push it out the door by changing up the fin and nothing else.

    Well, I was not lucky. So I jumped onto ebay as soon as I got on Sideshow's waitlist (haha). I was lucky in the sense that I snatched him up for under 500. In this case, he was worth it to me, I absolutely adore his colourway. However, I normally much prefer the old Sideshow Clones. You get much more with them. Yes, the body needs some attention, but I figured that out. After that is done, they are magnificent. I feel this one is very light on accessories, but I can print these myself if need be. As I have two Jango heads lying around (photogrammetrie and 3d-printed), I might put one of them onto this guy, we shall see. Guess I will for now go with the phase I helmet, I like this one a lot. Plus, most of my other guys wear phase I armour. But in my world, I have no qualms mixing the phases up.

    • @BostonCollectors
      @BostonCollectors  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Congrats on locking him down! Regardless of how much you spent, as long as it makes you happy. The color is a lot punchier in person versus the desaturated look here in the review, so if you like that, you’re in for a treat!
      I can see what you mean about being light on accessories. I documented that while I was going over everything, but the multiple helmet options ended up beating out the overall need of them for me. I was going to point out the Z6 Rotary Canon, Thermal Detonators and another pair of C-gripping hands as something that would’ve been great.
      Thank you for taking the time out to watch, Sandra. Have fun unboxing him! 🙌🏼🙏🏼

    I know exactly what you mean I was number 418 and I started seeing people fall off the queue real quick went form 27 minutes to like 7 minutes for my wait time. I was a bit annoyed that I had to pay upfront but I took the split second decision and just bought it because I knew it was gonna be gone if I didn’t. My poor buddy got 5k in his queue

    • @BostonCollectors
      @BostonCollectors  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I was starting to wonder if the line was bugging out at first, but it wasn’t until I tried to add my payment plan.
      “Where’s… where’s the payment plan?”
      It took me trying to check out and I used the wrong card, that’s when I got the alert for how much was coming out. Bruuuuutal. Now I see why folks dropped like flies. 😭😭
      Congrats on getting yours though, but RIP The homie ranked in the quadruple digits. That’s rough!

    I don’t know how it happened but I had mine in my cart and by the time I pressed the buy button which was milliseconds it was gone, now am on a waitlist that will never convert. Nice video review tho. The figure is going for over $500 am def not paying double for this figure so it is what it is.

    • @BostonCollectors
      @BostonCollectors  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Daaaaaang, that's ROUGH. I'd've been pretty upset if I really wanted it and that happened to me. Livid.
      Hopefully you get a conversion, because it's not worth over $300 at all. Awesome figure, but not worth that much to me. Thanks for taking the time out to watch after everything that happened. Respect.✊
