Bandai S.H. Figuarts Jango Fett Star Wars Review

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ต.ค. 2024
- I wanted to like the S.H. Figuarts Jango Fett from Star Wars, I really did. I was pretty sure he would suffer the shortness that Bandai seems to give all of their armored characters so that wasn't a huge surprise. The quality though, that shocked me.

I wish Jango had a model kit
Looks like there was an unmasked head AND the Rocket pack from Kamino. I really hope Figuarts releases that version of Jango, I love the Rocket pack WAY more than the Arena pack.
There are two types of people in the world kanino jet pack people and arena. There usually isn’t any middle ground haha. You’re one or the other and I’m with you I’m kamino/ boba / z6 mitrinomon all the way
Same. Kamino pack every day of the week
I dont really mind either. But i think im more used to the arena pack as its the best scene i remember of jango. Besides his fight with obi wan.
It's so weird that FigurArts does so many AOTC figures...
I think it's because it seems like no other company is interested in AOTC at all, wide open for Bandai.
I guess I know where my money is going
If he had a removable helmet I would have been sold
YESSS PLEASE!
The Black Series has a removable Jango helmet.
The neck is under the helmet so my guess is they were planning on including an extra unmasked head but didn’t add it.
Edit: I just realized robo said that he did originally come with it nvm
Yeah
this make me sad :(
thank you for being honest great review
Damn man. Kind of a bummer that this guy has so many issues.
In another review, I saw that the torso has a joint shift of some sort. It shifts down and limits the movement but it stops the wobble fest. If you try this just be careful you don't break it out of frustration.
I did notice the shift but didn't think it was an actual motion. Unfortunately both up and down the waist is still loosey goosey. And yeah, I tend to get frustrated haha.
Way better in detail and looks than the black series I don’t care about the removable helmet it’s a good little display piece
That waist thing is an easy fix! Unplugged the waist and put a little segment of the wrapp plastic over the balljoint.
Damn, so simple, so effective. I'll have to give that a try. Thanks!
The Fwoosh yeah simpler and more effective than super glue or nail polisher. Let me know how it goes!
Plasti Adicto dude... thank you so much. Are you referring to like the plastic they use in their packaging over the figures and in this figures case inside the armor at the waist?
Plasti Adicto hahaha to think about it they probably put that little piece of plastic in there for that purpose.😂
Elite Gshaw maybe and then we took it! out and mees it up 😂
Even when they first released the official pics, I had my doubts about this figure. The figure is waaaay too _clean_ to be the best bounty hunter of the galaxy. It needs the weathering effects on the jumpsuit and scratches on armour to make it more authentic. Black Series done a much better job on that department.
One thing that COULD have made this figure *shine* would have been to use that Figuarts digital printing magic to create a Temuera Morrison head. That would have been awesome and they missed out on that too.
Totally missed out on the Morrison head, completely. That would have upped the value more than a hook and the grapple, even the gauntlet blade.
Thank you for reviewing this figure! I purchased it around November and I swore mine was used and damaged but now I see that its just a super loose figure so I feel a little better about this purchase.
Knew Jango looked too good to be true. A crying shame. Thanks for the review! Now I'm certain I won't pick him up. Neat paint job on the Boba Model Kit, btw. Simple but efficient.
Yeah, I haven't gotten around to weathering the jumpsuit on Boba yet, mostly because I got a second one after I learned how to do waterslides. They look so much better so I'll do my second one up all pretty and then turn this one into Jodo Kast or Tobbi Dala or someone else. Big plans, it will probably stay as Boba Fett in a drawer for the next 10 years, haha.
The Fwoosh Haha. Sounds like a good plan.
What makes you think that other Jango figs out there have the same problem as yours?
Shane Dix most of them do.
@@TheFwoosh Can u do stop motion fan films
You're probably my favourite toy reviewer. You are so frank with the toys and really honest. It was you that convinced me to buy the Bandai model kits.
Keep up the great work
Oh man, I will preach the goodness of the model kits for as long as they are available, everyone should get them. Thank you very much, I appreciate it!
You've got that right c:
I ordered them the day I saw your Threepio review and kept rewatching it until mine came.
You're a great advertisement for toys :p
Ben Elgar I should totally get some kickback from Bandai but they won't even answer my phone calls. And here I am, still buying most of their Star Wars figures, haha!
They aren't answering your calls? Well that's just rude given the money you sink into their company.
Maybe you have to just keep going :p
they could have included alor more accessories with this kit. unmasked head, poncho, rocket launcher jet pack, and maybe even a flamethrower effect part.
It would be nice if he also came with blast effects for his guns and jet pack. With all my iron man figuarts maybe I can get something to work.
Sad to see the joins being so loose on this figure. I've heard a lot of other people say the same thing about this Jango. Probably just going to stick with my Black Series version.
That sounds like a good plan. If you mix and match different companies then the Black Series is a better size overall too.
yeah, loose joints in waist and more so in legs are common for the shf line. Quality control issue been a big part with bandai lately since they are expanding their figure line in rapid fashion. shame though silve colour looks so good, what bandai known for.
the waist on the figure is supposed to extend upwards for extra articulation, sort of like drop down hips. when youre moving it around in the video its extended.. if you push down on it so the black isnt showing it becomes tighter.
I noticed that but didn't think it was on purpose. It's loose in both positions though.
Fair enough. Part of what convinces me it's on purpose is every single (Jango) figure has it. I was watching a Japanese reviewer at a touch and try and the first thing he did was pull the waist out.. move it around, and then push it back in, almost like he knew it was there beforehand. also the hoses are a big deal for me. One of the things that bothers me so much about the Black Series is that the hoses block articulation, so the fact that they're not attached at one end and are a little bit longer than they need to be is a huge plus.
edit: youre right though it is loose in both positions, just not as much when its pushed down.
Great review! Just wanted to give you an FYI on the waist joint....after watching your review about the loose joints I was curious to see if others had the same issue. One reviewer commented that the waist joint is extendable so that Jango can do more dynamic ab crunches. Push the torso down and he doesn't become as floppy as you demonstrated. He's still a bit loose but not that loose. However, extend that waist joint, he is floppy. So maybe you might've had him in the extended position. Also it appeared that the swappable parts on the gauntlet were easy to come off as well so I'm starting to believe that the loose parts and joints is shared by everyone. Anyways, I hope that's useful info for you. Keep up the great reviews!
Oh no!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!......... I just ordered him!! FUDGE!!! I will keep him sealed! Unfortunate! Lets hope this is not a trend with all action figure companies! Nice review, just sad though.
Yeah, it's a bummer. Getting a SHF should be like your 16th birthday, not your 80th. You're still happy but it's mostly because you lived to see another.
already buy this figure today, all joint is good no issue
the loose waist is actually a pull up method to give the figure more ab crunch, if you push the loose waist all the way down it'll tighten up. this method is also applied to the old shf vegetas.
No matter how hard I push the torso down it doesn't tighten up. Up, down, anywhere, it's very loose.
wow sorry to hear that, mine's not like that at all. I push the torso down and it tightens up. The first time I took the figure out of the box I also thought that the waist is too loose, until I watched D Amazing's review. He touches up on the waist issue, that's how I know about the pull up method on jango. Hope you find a way to fix yours.
greg rio It tightened up a bit when I pulled it apart and then reassembled with one of those little plastic tabs that were in the seams to protect the paint into the ball joint. Works pretty good but not perfect.
A good and even handed review. I do like the Figuarts line but it goes to show that they don't make perfect figures. My reason for passing on Jango was because of the knees. Maybe it's different on the final model, but the promo shots where his knees are bent looked plain weird.
I didn't notice weirdness with the knees, hmm.
Haha, sorry Robo, now I feel bad :/
Just watched your MAFEX Boba review - it looks sooooo good!
Great review brother!!!! I watched yours first because I know you always bring the honesty!!! I got mine last Saturday and while I'm still gonna give the Figuarts the nod over the black series....I am a little disappointed at some of the same things you are with this figure. For some reason I don't like hoses that aren't fully attached, the waist joint bothers me, but the shoulder joint probably kills it for me the most! Lastly I'm glad you said it because I thought I was going crazy...I knew I saw what looked to be an unmasked head in that sneak pic....would have totally preferred that
I want to buy Jango Fett, but I believe that Black Series is the best option for now. So I will stick with Black Series edition.
That's a good plan.
ball joint can be fixed by applying nail polish and leaving it to dry so it tightens when placed together again. Old gundam trick
I've also heard of using Future floor polish and in extreme cases, super glue. But I don't like risking a lockup.
It seems like this figure has some QC issues as you weren't the only reviewer who had these problems. In a few reviews the figure seemed fine though so I'm keeping my fingers crossed as I wait for my own to come in the mail.
I think your negativity is warranted. Figuarts figures are generally a cut above the rest. This one has some significant issues. I do agree that the overall proportions are better on this one than TBS version, but I feel that the visor on TBS Jango looks slightly more film accurate. I think the wear and tear look on TBS one would have been nice on the Figuarts. I guess you win some and you lose some. Solid review as always.
Mafex ROTJ Boba Fett is not fiddly at all, you should try him out if you have not already!
Hehehe th-cam.com/video/OxbmrvJmy40/w-d-xo.html
mine just shipped, and apparently i have the same problem with the right hand joint.
the torso joint is loose as well, i hate to say this ,but i think the black series nailed it this time, in terms of price and the pose
I have to agree. I was going to say it surprised me but honestly I should have known better. Not with the loose joints but with the size and proportions. Bandai always seems to make the armored characters shorter and slightly stylized while making humans hypre-realistic and able to fit in with other lines. Crazy thinking.
Damn I was actually gonna order this one but now I think I'll save myself a few bucks and get the black series one, thanks for the review man! (Maybe the unmasked head will come with a future Boba Fett?)
That or some other version of the clone, something. But yeah, you may be right. And I'll line right up and buy it, sucker that I am, haha.
I love your reviews. You are very funny and talks funny too. Keep the Good job
Haha, I will take that as a compliment, thank you!
I actually don't mind the cut down pistols for the holsters. You can use it as his pistol after Mace cuts it in half on Geonosis.
God I love your videos, I'm coming to Fwoosh from now on. I bought the Boba Figure because of your awesome video. I did buy the Jango figure too, though I'm okay with some minor problems. Thanks again for the awesome videos!
Thanks man, I appreciate that! Glad you dig the content.
IMPORTANT NOTE: I've been checking a lot of pics on the web and the removable hook from right gauntlet is GREATLY oversized. So not nice :c I'm removing mine for display...
The actor for Jango is 5'8" but Jango in sw is 6' and Samuel L Jackson is 6'2" so the difference between actors is noticeable but in canon is only 2 inches
The figures standing next too each other seem way off from that, at least scale-wise. Another undersized armored character.
The Fwoosh the black series looks much better imo
Blake Vogl I agree. The head is a little big and the arms are long but in the display it looks better with all the rest.
This is $28 now. Should I get it?
That's actually a pretty good price. I have my complaints about it but for that price? I'd get it.
This is a sad sight to behold as the Figuarts line is and always will be my go-to import line for figures.
In all my years, the only jankiness I've experienced in the line was on the Mega Man Zero style Zero, whoose hair would keep falling off while posing so you had to pose the hair and figure separately before attaching them together.
And that was just a slightly annoying extra step that didn't actually hinder the figure in any way when it came to the sculpt or range of poseability.
Couldn't agree more with your review. How do you plan on tightening the joints
I'll probably use floor wax and if that's not enough, some super glue. I don't like to but in this case I just gotta.
The Fwoosh what did you end up doing? I'm trying to figure out a way to fix it so I can actually pose him. I more than likely won't opt to super glue cuz that's like no turning back committed. Lol
If I found this figure for about 30 should I with the odds that I could be a bit loose like yours?
I've heard of some that aren't loose but a lot that are. It's just a crapshoot, man. If it is loose I've heard of people taking the protective plastic that comes between some of the joints and just snapping the torso together with it in-between, seems to tighten it up.
I think the pouches are way better and even more screen accurate on the TBS Jango. From all I saw I have to say I like the TBS more, even though I usually like Figuarts so much better.
It's a weird thought to have, isn't it? I still try to look at both and make myself like the SHF more like always but I just can't do it.
Some have mentioned an issue with the knees
I didn't notice anything wonky about the knees.
It was a visual thing, I believe.
Btw regarding the arms movement, there is a cup inside the "shoulder" that is aiding in preventing the full range of movement. It should be removable and thus more range.
Man it left me with mixed feelings, Mine is still yet to come... As someone said it has a shift down in the hip joint and seen other reviewers shift it up and down.
Also I had successfully fix loose joints by using floor polish, try it robo!
Yup, I've done the floor polish, it works great. But Jango still ends up small. I don't know if I can overlook that. And the shift doesn't help, it's loose in all positions. Gah, this figure, I swear, haha.
robo, this may be a lot to ask but I have a favor and if you do it you will literally be my hero (even more than you are now) The wrist peg broke on my figuarts ROTJ Luke Skywalker and I've been trying to think of ways to fix it but recently I had the idea that maybe another figure(one that doesn't go for $150) would have the same wrist peg. The cheapest one on amazon right now is jango fett....so what I would ask you to do is try and test lukes hands on jango fett... I would say switch the peg from jango to luke to see if that fits in the first place but I feel like thats asking too much of you. Maybe you could shoot a video on it, it may help other people too. Anyway if you think this is something you could help me out with pleaseee let me know, thanks
Luke's hand doesn't fit on Jango's wrist peg, for some reason it's way bigger. After some trial and error I got Luke's hand to fit on EPII Obi-Wan's wrist. It's a little more expensive though. I wish I had those WWE figures, those look like they would work and they are cheaper. Sorry man.
The Fwoosh thanks so much for trying man. I'll see what I can do. I may order the episode 2 obiwan and if it doesn't work I'll just return him. What sucks is that I kinda wanted that Obi wan for my collection haha I may try a few wwe figures. Thanks again man you saved me a lot of time!
I read it wrong. I meant try the wwe figures and if they don't work then I'll return them. Thanks for the heads up about the obi wan
Hey do you think Bandai will be making a model kit hover tank driver or would I just be better to pick up the black series
The Black Series is excellent and if you see one, grab it. But with the tank driver sharing the same body as the Scarif Shoretrooper I can't see Bandai not releasing a model kit since it would be 90% reuse. Just needs a new helmet mostly.
But yeah I really hope this isn't an indication of anything to come because I went to town with the Rogue One Figuarts pre orders on amiami
I have to think that this is a one-off. With the excellent quality in the past this just comes out of nowhere.
i wonder how come they never put the old jet pack before he has the current one that they all put in jango fett
Ugh mine doesn’t have that waste problem. Guess I’m just lucky
I was kinda upset that the alternate head didn't come with it, that was its chance to completely blow the BS version out the water with its awesome face sculpts/digital paint app. I haven't got mine yet, but does the head pop off nice enough to pose Mace decapitating him?
Oh yeah, the head pops off easily. That's one of the good points here, the parts that need or should pop off do so smoothly but are also secure when they are in place. And yeah, and unmasked Jango head would have upped this release a LOT.
did the figures waist torso joint become a bit loose when you removed the plastic wrapping around the waist? just wondering?
If I remember right it felt loose as soon as I got it out of the packaging.
The Fwoosh i left the plastic wrapped around the waist area and its really nice and tight? I'm afraid of taking it off lol
u can barely see the plastic
Thanks Robo, you made my decision much easier, especially considering the price.
Glad I could help. And yeah, it's even worse since the price has been creeping up recently.
The Fwoosh Don't get me wrong, I'll happily pay for *quality* figuarts ST figures but this Jango figure ins't one of them. I mean, I've seen three reviews of it already and in all of those reviews there are problems with the torso and shoulder joints.
Honestly the hight in comparison to mace is just right. Jango is supposed to be 1,80m and Mace is 1.89m so I think they just hit the sweet spot
I'm new to collecting Figuarts and Black Series and I am confused. Is 1/12 scale the same as 6inch. I wan to know if I can get 1/12 scale figures that will be around the same height as black series figures.
Figuarts troopers skew a little small to go with Black Series, but most of the others fit fine. 1/12 is 6-inch scale.
Great video Robo. I just got this guy. What did you do to fix that loose waist joint?
I haven't actually fixed mine since I don't care too much for the figure itself but you can either put some floor wax or nail polish on the ball to thicken it up a bit, make it a little tighter. I've heard of people just sticking a piece of plastic in there too.
Is it just me or do his holsters look... kinda awkward? I don't know how narrow they're supposed to be, but I can't help but feel like they look a bit silly.
Like the gun doesn't look like it would actually fit in the holster? That's one of the drawbacks to making them non-functioning holsters.
The Fwoosh I guess, yeah. Do they stand out? I really want a Jango but my financial situation isnt super great, so Id like it if the figure is worth the higher price. I could go for the Hasbro version but the Figuarts does have multiple sets of hands. Plus, I live in the Netherlands and figures are pretty difficult to get here in general, and I'll likely have to pay €10 more than I should for both versions.
Maybe it didn't come with Temuera's head coz that would make it much more expensive? and maybe they will release 4 Temuera heads with Boba? So we can use on Boba and Jango and troopers... and since we all LOVE boba we can pay anything for those 4 head sculpts?...
Help me Obi Wan Kenobi...
you're my only hope.
But Captain America and can get two heads, both of which use the printing tech? Luke gets extra faces and hairs. Maul gets two awesome heads, Mace gets two that are barely different, again, both printed. Like I said, do away with some of the useless accessories and throw in an extra head.
The Fwoosh I'm with you 200%, just hoping for the best in the future :(
I honestly don't thinks it's worth $100 the box is like 5 inches, it's a crazy amount for a collectable. Your just really paying for plan but good figure!
ehh, figuarts. Sometimes they release an absolutely amazing figure, just to disappoint with their next reease. I feel this figure is somewhat of a wasted potential. IT could have been so much better. It just doesnt look as good as some of their other figures. I wish they went with a slightly different "skeleton", because this one just doesnt seem to work well, aesthetically-wise. Plus the arms ar too short. And the horizontal part of the visor is too wide. It was much narrower in the movie.
Man, I'm sorry this one is so bad. Figuarts always looks so good. Scale is the biggest issue for me. If they could just be as accurate with scale as they are with their sculpts. :\
- that Chewbacca has me worried too......
Chewbacca may end up a little bit small, but the thing there is that most of the classic heroes will be Figuarts on my shelf in the near future so it won't look so bad overall. Hopefully? Wishful thinking?
The Fwoosh
Yeah and the Hasbro Chewbacca is a little big if you ask me. The model kits won't save us on this one i'm afraid.
Can Black Series Jango hold Figuarts Jango's blasters? I'd love a nice alternative to rubber guns.
Yes it can. They are a little smaller and the triggers are almost too small for Black Series Jango's finger, but he can hold them.
The Fwoosh Sweet.
Thanks for the review as always. Was on the fence about this one because I'm not a huge fan of the character but thought he'd look great with the Mace Windu Figuarts, guess I'll just give it a miss after all - might pick a black series Jango instead if I can find one..
Thanks for the review. Just a heads up. I think you may have been unlucky with your figure. The ball joint on my mace is like your Jango. So maybe it a production issues. Have fun!
Weird, I've never heard much about QC issues on Mace.
The Fwoosh the belt pops out the joint. it was loose to start with, like jango. the ball joint isn't great on mine. really think it's a factory problem. have fun mate.
im holdin up for the mafex ver
I can't see the S.H.F Jango being better than the Hasbro. I can get my black series Jango in really awesome poses. Also I don't know why your Black series Jango helmet looks really huge when mine looks the perfect size. Did I get a reissue or something? Idk?
Crap. I was hoping to get this figure because it looked so good. And I got rid of rid of my BS one for this one ☹️️ if you work on the waist could you do a lil tutorial on what you did? 👍🏾
Yeah, if I end up salvaging this I'll do an update video.
cant you change this figure in the store that you bought? just say that the figure its loose, they'll probably give you another one
I ordered it from Amiami, overseas and kind of a pain to exchange.
Ill wait for the price to drop. I think its a nice looking figure and I am willing to put work it. But as long as it looks nice and I can leave it on my shelve and once in a while pose it differently I'm good.
will this look fit in scale with the model kit clonetrooper because i just got it and i am still deciding if i want to get this figure. (I probably won't)
The SHF Jango is about half a head shorter than the model Clone Trooper. Looks okay if you split them up but right next to each other it looks screwy.
hi did you manage to fix the waist joint
I never went back to mess with it much. It can be tightened with some floor wax or something else to thicken up the ball,.
Thanks for the reply
The finicky figures are the ones I don't like collecting. S'why I don't collect Hot Toys....aside from the fact I can't afford them
I can totally afford for hot toys......All I have to do is sell the house......
I've had the BS version sitting in storage for 9 months or more and decided to open it up last night. What a pleasant surprise! Sure the paint on the head is a little off and would look more like a random clone with a whack haircut, but that figure looks so bad ass to me I suddenly want a Jango Fett movie! It is much bulkier and dirtier and way bad ass looking on the shelf.The Boba figure is good, but Jango is upstaging it!
Yeah, the Black Series Jango cuts a nice silhouette, I actually like it better than the import and that doesn't happen very often!
The Fwoosh I would believe that. It would be my favourite Black Series figure so far, gauged purely from my geek out level. lol
i wonder how a s.h. figuarts boba would look if they ever released one
henry probably wouldn't have a lot of weathering, they don't do a lot of that unfortunately
henry it would look wonderful. Just as long as they don't do a plastic cape and don't have loose ass joints.
Best translation ever ( btw nice review)!!!
Thanks!
Well,well,well: Hasbro is taking their game up a notch and Figuarts is having QC issues... It's a topsy-turvy world and I don't like it '😔. My Jango is still in the post so I can't comment on in hand issues but I do think he looks the part. My only reason to get him was because I wanted a nice adversary for my Mace Windu and I think that he will at least fit that bill. I sure hope that the sudden surge of all these new SHF's doesn't signal in a decline in their quality.
Don't make me worry about Han just because he's lumped in with the winter avalanche of Figuarts this year. Hrm. Please be good, Han, please.
They can't mess up Han, can they? It's a key release for them, surely. Although, have you seen the Obi-Wan ANH prototypes? I'm not really excited about that one, the face sculpt is nowhere near the usual quality. Then again, it's a prototype so there's plenty of time to get it right.
The GeekSpotlight Yeah, I'm not going to make any decisions about Obi-Wan until they officially solicit him. The only way I can see Han being screwy is height but with him being a non-armored character I have faith. Lots of faith.
have you found a way to fix the waist?
If you pull the joint apart and then put it back together with a piece of the plastic that protected the joints in the package pinched in-between it seems to tighten it up.
The Fwoosh Huh wow, I thought the whole nail polish thing would work, thanks
it almost seems like it is a knockoff, but with Bandai, I have never heard of bootlegs, but who knows?
I've heard of a couple of bootlegs, but never as the actual product came out. Always way after. But I've heard these problems from a lot of people. Blows my mind after all the other awesome figures I've gotten.
no kidding, mine is on the way, plus I ordered the red battle droid, but I wonder if it comes with the 3PO head packaged with it. only figure I am missing is the scout and bike combo, that price a little too steep, gotta save money for Star Wars Launch Bay at WDW. They have figures and statues that are exclusive to there only.
Heath Hinton I'm pretty sure the red Battle Droid comes with the C-3PO head. That's the only other SHF I have pre-ordered besides Han, I just don't need any of their trooper figures if they are going to be small. Oh wait, gotta grab EPII Obi-Wan...
thanks for the reminder, gotta get him, chewie
Heath Hinton Oh, the wait for Chewy is hard, can't wait for that one. That and I wwant to see the finished product on old man Ben.
yeh i have the bootleg version fwoosh and its identical in everyway including the wierd loose waist so i think thats intersting lol
Nice review, honestly I might just pick up the Black Series. Better price, and I really want that unmasked head haha
And really it's a better size to fit in with the rest of the collection.
This is a great s.h.figuarts Jango Fett bootleg review.
+David Dávila Not a bootleg...
@ David Dávila
Not a bootleg dude. The figure is just absolute shit across the board. The BS Jango ain't perfect either but it beats the hell out of this offering.
Lol, guys i know its not a bootleg, just being sarcastic, this thing sucks tho, i have the BS and i just love it (with the helmet on always tho)
are you planning on reviewing the dbz Frieda model kit? I just finished mine and it's spectacular
I like it but I probably won't review it. By the time I got to it the Saiyan Pod or even Buu will be out already, haha.
I watched this other guys review on this figure and he didn't get one with the loose ball joint. The figure I got does and it's really hard to get him to pose in most poses due to the jet pack weighing him down. Does anyone have any suggestions as far as fixing that problem? Robo if you're reading this did you ever figure out a way to fix it?
You can take some of the plastic that comes in between some of the parts and wrap the ball in it, then pop it back together. Trim off the extra that shows and it should be good to go.
cant believe you actually said this jango is better then the black series version in any way lol this fig is trash, this fig is expensive, has loose joints, no details in the paint app and no face, just the helmet. The black series is WAY more detailed, has tight joints and is actually affordable and it may noy have a ton of accessories but it has just what it needs to look good. Shf really droped the ball here.
Nope
Has there been any updates to this figure since this was three years ago?
Well, well, well. Pretty disappointing. Fortunately I'm really happy with my Black Series Jango Fett, funny eyebrows aside.
While I get most of the human unmasked and unarmored characters from SH Figuarts' Star Wars line, I'm definitely skipping the armored ones. Luckily, Hasbro's Black Series armored figures are usually great while the human faces tend to be awfuly painted or terribly ugly... or at least difficult to look at. So you can have an awesome Star Wars figure collection by picking each figure from the right line. I know there can be some minor size differences but it's something I can deal with.
High five, that's exactly what I do. Human characters from Figuarts, armored from the model kits, aliens and background characters from the Black Series. Don't get me wrong, I buy all of the Black Series but if a better option comes along it gets replaced. Is it sad that I'm so used to paying import prices now that I think of the $20 for a BS figure cheap and disposable? So different from the mid-2000s when I had a $10 cap for action figure purchases...
man amazon.ca had mace for $30 one day out of nowhere and I had already spent my money on a wwe figure that shipped like right before I saw that mace was on sale T-T
Well... what can I say.... let's hope Bandai makes a model kit version of this ;)
Damn looks like this is another "Ultron Prime". Kinda sucks that it hd to be two of my favorites that Bandai ended up botching. :(
Think you may of just gotten a defective figure. Most other reviews of Jengo don't seem to have the wobbly issue yours dies. i would be really pissed off though and try to get another.
A lot of other people I've heard from have the same issue.
I have the same issue with mine being loose in the waist ball. I was wondering if I was the only one as some of the reviews I saw didnt mention it. The shoulder pad is a pain, it can easily pop out when trying to extend the armor out. There are some good things with the figure but it is a bit of a pain to pose, once you get it into position it is like leave it be forever...
Can’t believe I’m saying this but black series tops this one.
I think jango fett's character is as cool as bobba fett's character to me
Somehow I feels like Black Series is better than SHF when it comes to PVC and rubber parts, and always have better holsters.
is bandai going to make a bobba?
They are probably waiting for Hasbro to finally get around to their ROTJ Boba before being able to make an S.H. Figuarts.
ok! thanks
This is first Figuarts where I actively hate myself for buying it. Such a waste of $$$. Usually Bandai crushes it, and it's always superior to the black series equivalent. I don't know what happened here.
I'm right there with you at this point. I really think it's something with Bandai and the armored characters. Troopers, Vader, now Jango, all underscaled for some reason. The QC issues and dumb accessories here, which are the real surprise, just push it further into bottom of the tub in the closet territory. It's not enough to put me off Figuarts like with MAFEX, but man, it sucks.
I hits QC issues 😠 especially if you've ordered from ami ami (which I usually do) because then it's too much of a hassle to send it back. Those gun holding hands really piss me off....a gun toting character needs good gun slingin hands!! Entertaining review but sucks you got a dud
wow I just got the black series
I'm going to stick with my black series 😉
Nice video
Hmmm it's hard to say if this is a good figure the small pieces annoy me like on my cap figure that small piece on the back I lost within 4 hours of getting the figure but this jango has about 5 or 10 pieces like that so it's almost inevitable that the average person will lose something that small very quickly and with only a little bit of friction to hold it up I'm kind of disappointed with this figure thanks for being the test dummy before I deiced to get this figure ha ha poor you. Well at least the figuarts black panther looks sweet ha ha
Haha, glad I could save you some money. And yeah, Black Panther is looking awesome, can't wait for that one.
And don't feel bad, I lost that Cap back cap before I made it to the toy room. Insane.
The Fwoosh ye its so small I just think why bother trying to look for it
He’s perfect!
I guess they were do to release a turd. Other than the crappy build quality and sub par paint apps, he comes off a little barrel chested and he doesn't have a neck. His bucket isn't very good either. Oh well
Been two years, where's boba fett
I bet they are waiting for the ESB anniversary at this point, we haven't seen much from Empire from a lot of companies.
@@TheFwoosh I hope so, want to compare the mafex and figuarts bobas but cant until they release one
