@@fredrickanthony4909 oh man! Sorry to hear about the YWing. I am glad you were able to get it fixed. Thanks for the comment that means a lot! I am glad you are enjoying the reviews. Looks like series 7 Starfighter is starting to show up in store so hopefully I can nab some early and get the reviews out for those too. Thanks for watching!
I just got this on the weekend and agree with you... it it the best ship they've done, so far. I didn't even notice the stickers inside until I watched your video. So glad they did that in the factory and didn't make us put them on, or they'd have been a mess. I also watched your video on the Phantom II. I was hoping it would dock with The Ghost, but I couldn't have guessed that it'd activate different sounds. I didn't have the money for the Haslab Ghost, but this hits the spot. And I actually have room to display it, unlike the Haslab one.
I've been waiting 12 days for this review, mine as to stay boxed until Dec 25, loving the updated internal paint job, mine is missing the outer battle damage which is fine, I was going to remove it anyway, thanks for the link to the Phantom II, it wasnt showing in my feed, instant pre-order!
@@doctordetroit1217 so cool to wait till the 25th on this one. It will be well worth it! My preorder for this got pushed twice by Amazon, I was dying waiting for it. Such a cool set! I can’t wait for you to open it!
All of my regular release Y-Wing torpedoes also are removable. Also seeing less wash on the underside of Yellow 3s engine nacelle mounts. Interesting. Thanks for the review. I haven't opened mine yet.
Great review! I feel like the stand alone brings this version better value than the standard version. Though price-wise it's not much of a discount to if you had bought the Ghost and the 3 other ships separately.
Today my ghost arrived, I am super happy with it, I love it, it is one of my favorite ships although I think that now compared to the falcon it has become quite small if we compare it with this one and with Ashoka's ship
I got the Secret Mission on sale, but I couldn't pass on the $15 regular version. It's all the extras you get that make the SM worth it, though I like the regular Ghost for the clear parts as you can see the figures better. Looks tediously scary to try and clean the haze off without messing it up. Like to see if someone has actually done it?
@@Erlofive I have done it! Takes so isopropyl alcohol and a some paper towels and qtips. It’s didn’t get as clear as I wanted and may look into some other options to make it really clear but it helped significantly. Just be careful and don’t push too hard on the painted parts and you will be fine.
@@_kickingbird_7907 yes! It’s was pretty disappointing to see that also. I am getting a replacement one from Amazon. The figure mess up is enough to at least want to try again and get something a little better.
Just got mine, and realized that the stand is also perfect for the y-wing, just rest the "wings" between the legs and the "neck" of the ship on the part that cradles the Ghost Also works with the Phantom's wings similar to the y-wing, and ignore the cradle part Oh, also my figures don't appear to have the paint misalignment issue, I think you got unlucky, unfortunately
Love the painted seats on the interior vs the standard. Don’t love the battle damage as much. Dig the stand, don’t love the darker green on the canopies. Sounds like QC was better on the standard? All that said, would you recommend the standard or the Amazon exclusive? Thanks in advance and thanks for your content.
@@s.h.842 gosh that’s tough! The added deco to the interior, the stand, the extra gold 3 YWing and you get the phantom included and don’t have to search around for it is a great deal. The QC problems even with my set have been disappointing. For the value of this I would think some of these easy errors should be fixed. To be honest it’s a toss up. So hard to pick. If you find the value in the added interior deco and getting everything included this is the one. If you prefer the non battle damage deco the standard is the one for you. Ugh, I wish I could provide better advice it’s just hard because both are so different! If the standard had the interior details I would say hands down get that one. I am not sure if that is helpful or not. You can’t really go wrong with either!
I was wondering the same thing. The blast effects don't do it for me but the extra painted stuff makes the original look like it was Intended but for whatever reason they didnt do it 🤷🏾
The Secret Mission set is fantastic value for money, i love the details. My biggest dislike is the painted on damage so i'm wondering if i could remove it with Isopropyl Alchol with out damaging the rest of the paintwork??
@@miklawson211 unfortunately the type of paint they use for that won’t come off easily with isopropyl alcohol. If it does it will definitely pull off the other paint. I have tried this one a couple of the other vehicles.
@@miklawson211 yea. The standard ghost release doesn’t have the marks. Hopefully we get a third Ghost release with a Phantom 2! Maybe the season 4 Rebels Crew or the Ahsoka crew.
@@emperorpalpatineofthegreat7132 the gold leader y wing was a common release and can be found likely on the secondary market or potentially at shop.jazwares. The Gold 3 y wing is unique to this set.
I got mine in the mail today and I’m really disappointed with some QC issues with the top turret and the port side wing in the Phantom 1. Things were literally put together wrong. I sent support requests to jazzwares, and was wondering if you’ve ever had to do that before and if they are helpful? If not I feel like I definitely got ripped off with the lack of quality for the price
@@Hebrew_hammer52 I have reached out to the CS before and I would say generally they are helpful. The problem is they don’t keep a lot of stuff in stock so it’s hard to get a replacement of the exact item you have an issue with. In my experience, I have had to return the item and try again with a second version. Just curious what’s the problem with the wing?
@@kmtanner04 damn ok. I’m probably just going to have to return it to Amazon and request a replacement or get refunded and then buy a new one. The problems are that the top gun turret will NOT close, it stays open a few millimeters which is extremely noticeable, and the center panel of the port side wing of the phantom is was literally put on upside down, so the small little “protrusions” that keep the moveable parts stationary when you unfold the wing is on the wrong side and therefore the wing just kinda flops down and flops around and is very loose. Some of the stickers also weren’t even put on all the way. Idk what happened with the one I got but it’s disappointing
@@scottjg24 bummer! I have heard that has been an issue for a few people. Likely the wash they applied has gotten in there and caused it to stick. If you are able to get a this tweezer or something in there you may be able to pop it loose. I just haven experimented with it yet.
god i wish whoever makes these. spinoff and do other IP ships. give me a micro galaxy of star trek ships. firefly ship (mainly the 1 ship), or go crazy. cowboy bebop, etc
I mean come on bro this one is so worth the buy. You can see the inside; there's tons of characters; there's tons of moving parts; there's 4 vehicles; the 3 vehicles can attach to the main; there's sound effects; there's light effects; there's story based detailing; there's a standalone landing gear; there's a display stand....

This is such a cool line.
I'd be all over them if they were more widely available (and if I wasn't broke).
standard release seems much better with the clear windows. what are the differences in price you think? with the y wings sold separately?

Its funny they can do better detail on a smaller scale with the droids, while Lego struggles with theirs.
I guess the difference is these are hand-painted at a factory, while Lego Prints are mostly automated which means they lack the precision.
