  • Unfortunately this release is not quite what I was hoping. Please sit down and listen to me vent for a bit.

    This figure is so close to perfect. I personally just took an x-acto knife to all 12 of mine and removed the top of their hair and then glued the helmets on. It didn't like doing it, but I'd much rather them look good with the helmets on then be able to take the helmet off.

      😨 and destroy those beautiful boys heads!? How could you! 😂 I love the head sculpts too much to do anything that drastic. If anything I would take a little out of the top of the helmet. We just need swappable, I mean the helmets in the films don't even look like they could go onto a head with the rim they have around the neck. They could make a fully screen accurate one and not have to worry about a head fitting in it 👌 it's working great with the new Mando figures that just came out and they even made them in a way that they look like they are removable since they have a really deep socket in them

      @JonRunner88. Yeah, the heads are really nice, and I really disliked doing it, but I don't have the proper tools to remove some of the plastic in the helmet. I decided that I care more about the helmet looking good than I do about the head inside, so I made my choice. I definitely agree that swappable heads would be better.

      @JonRunner88. Also, yeah, the AOTC clone helmets are too small to fit a human head inside realistically. Just about every AOTC costume fans make, they have to slightly scale the helmet up to fit inside.

      @@CloneCommanderCrater1102 ya everyone collects different. I do my pics and videos so like the option to have them both ways when I want. For the 4 pack of phase 1 clones we got a while back I took heads from other figures and popped them into the helmets cause they were still using the old helmets on newer wider heads so they were way too tight and I didn't want to ruin the paint jobs on the heads

    If you put the vc45 helmet on this new clone it fits much better

      Ya it still doesn't look as good as it should though. The new phase 2 helmet on the 4pack shows that they really need to get away from the removable helmets and have swappable heads and helmets

    You think if you dremeled out a little plastic out of that helmet it would fit better?

    • @JonRunner88.
      @JonRunner88.  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I do think the top of the helmet is very thick. When I put them on they feel like they should go down more but there may just be too much at the top. Would just be very careful doing it since it's rubber and could start melting it if you Dremel it and it starts to heat up. But I think with the right piece you could make it fit a little better. Of course that is not something we should have to do with our figures out of box especially with how long these helmets have been an issue and it's a new helmet sculpt for this release so it's even more frustrating that they messed up again 😂

    The 2005 to 2007 saga collection clone troopers are the only clones I will ever get the Vintage Collection clones sucks in my opinion! they have very skinny bodies, their helmets are always way too big, their stiff as Hell it feels like they can break any minute and sometimes they can't even hold there weapons so ya in this situation trust the old and not the new.

      I would agree that the old vintage collection VC45 clone body is terrible but the new one is amazing. I have a handful of clones from the saga collection and the new ones are soo much better there isn't a comparison in my opinion. Yes the helmets are an issue but it's really the only outstanding issue which they seem to be fixing with the new 4 pack

      @@theterribleclaw4285 talking bad about something you have yet to hold in hand 😝 I'm disappointed by the phase 1 helmet here yes but I love the phase 2 ones that I have and have done a lot to customize them (have a bunch of pics on my Instagram about it) and of they pack the new helmet sculpt in instead of the removable helmets as long as they still include the unmasked heads then they will be like a perfect figure in my opinion
