S.H. Figuarts Count Dooku Star Wars Attack of the Clones Bandai Spirits Action Figure Review
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 14 ส.ค. 2024
- I kind of knew the Bandai Tamashii Nations S.H. Figuarts Star Wars Count Dooku was going to be off just going by the promotional images, but getting it in-hand.....it's off. Paint is off, sculpt is off, articulation is dated. I'm happy to have a Count Dooku on the shelf but it could be way better, as much as I hate to say that.

Dooku wears brown in RotS, but it's much darker than this. Like you said, a darker colour might have made this a bit more cohesive. I never noticed that he's basically wearing Imperial officer garb until you pointed it out. At least this guy can act as a stand-in on your shelf until Hasbro makes a Dooku... did I just say that?
Yup, just said that. How times change...
Hasbro Dooku confirmed. Hope they knock it out of the park (they probably will)
JEC03 yes they have, way better then this
It's frustrating to pay up front for exclusive figures like this and not get the worth you paid for.
Ahhh dude don’t sweat the negative review, this is literally a beautiful sunrise with flowers floating through the wind in a park on a summers day compared to an anthonys customs review lol keep up the great content mane
Anthonys reviews are just a bit wierd
Don’t be afraid to be honest Robo! This figure definitely isn’t worth the asking price. SHF messed up this time, but they’ll hopefully move forward and keep getting better and better
Wanted to tell you thank you for reviewing this figure. I don’t know if a lot of viewers understand that most of you guys purchase, evaluate, and share your thoughts about these items, as a service to us, and one we take for granted at times. I appreciate hearing your opinion and those evaluation points “help” my purchase decisions based on the information you and other reviewers provide. Your thoughts and opinions are yours, so I never feel a reviewer should have to apologize for how they view a product. Your work speaks for itself and if someone feels you are being biased or evaluating a product too harshly then they really should take a step back and understand this is just one reviewers opinion. Again, thank you for taking the time and sharing your thoughts.
Honestly, I forget about that sometimes too, thank you for that.
Ok so I purchased this figure and was depressed with the negative reviews. However after having opened this figure I must protest. I find my copy to be flawless.
Hope we get a Hasbro Black Series version soon. They have been on a Episode 1 kick last couple of Waves.
I normally love SHF but I'm glad I didn't jump through the hoops for this one.
Great review as always, buddy! So sad to see that there are several missed opportunities on this one. Saw your pic on insta where you painted the robes. It already looked much better. Now I am waiting for a pic with him reassembled. Lol I’m sure that will make it appear/display better. The head sculpt/print did definitely fall short, but hopefully Hasbro will have a go at him as well and will issue a great head sculpt that can be swapped. 🤷♂️
The black looks much better. Giving the cape a wet treatment now, waiting for that to dry. He's still off but it's less painful on the shelf, until something better comes along, hah.
He should be taller than Anakin. The actor was 6’5”
That's why the figure is taller?
it's funny this got recommended to me after the TBS Dooku came out
Wow, one of the first human figuarts I've ever seen and thought "yeah I'll wait for the black series"
Cancelled my pre-order based off this review. For the price BBTS was asking, I'm not too sad about it. Hopefully we get a Dooku announcement from Hasbro at SDCC.
Dooku is now revealed! Now we just need better pictures to see if he's good or not...
JEC03 yes. yes he is.
we now have an amazing black series Dooku, SH figure one is really bad
Review the figuarts Obi Wan please
I have been looking forward to this: count dooku
That Darth TyranGUS opening is amazing.
I see fwoosh + figuarts + star wars, I click. I'm a simple man
I don't even want to buy these figures, but your reviews are so damn good.
formal ceremony Gus looks fantastic!
It's a shame Tamashii dropped the ball on this one. I'm kinda glad I gave it a pass.
Nothing wrong with being negative Robo, you're critical and rightfully so.
Man! I’ve been waiting a year for Dooku!!
I was sooooo hyped for this figure, you could even say that “I’ve been looking forward to this!” (I’m sorry) I have this waiting at home and have no rush to open it haha. Amazing review but, man, what a disappointing figure. 🙁
Thanks for the review. I'm still happy enough with it. I'll be unpicking the stitching on that cape though!
I got out of the Figuarts game to shrink down my collection. With a lot of figures that have come out I’m glad I did.
i just love his cold open every time
I guess we'll have to wait for the Black series to do a better version (man it feels weird to say that)
9 months later
Hasbro: Lemme show you how its done
I’m going to do black contrast paint up above and the dark brown contrast on the legs. Custom head too.
mediocre figure for the price point, feels to cheap, great review as always
Sadly I jumped onto this too and I was hesitating even when pulling the trigger. That said, the face looks better than I was expecting, although possibly the subtlest 'alt' face I've ever seen (it's not even looking to the side - what's all that about!?).
Defo with you on the repaint too, and as the heads are so similar, I may give one of them a repaint too. Lots of work for an expensive import figure!
Don't feel bad! Some toy reviewers like everything they review. But a good review should contain critique too. I like the honesty. That's why you are the best 6" toy reviewer out there. 😊. We get an honest opinion from you.
Aw, thanks for that man.
It's not bad to be negative when you are making a review. You are supposed to point the pros and cons, nothing wrong with that. It may get subjective at some parts, yes, but you are not wrong either and you actually show pictures and make comparisons with other stuff to prove your points. Good review as always.
Bandai really need to sort out their finishes
I'm definitely taking a brush to this guy when I get my hands on him.
Why are you so worried about the criticism, Robo? Don't you know how much american collectors love to shit on SHF and praise legends/black series :D
Or the reverse of that, the collectors who think Bandai can do no wrong and Hasbro makes cheap crap. The age old "Playstation/XBox" "Ford/Chevy" "My political party is better than yours for ....reasons" bullshit.
Oh of course, that wasn't why I said that. I think this figure is average as hell, especially for a web exclusive. And I do agree Bandai fucks up at times like IW Captain America, Iron Spider or Winter Soldier.
But there really is a bias towards Hasbro and tendency to shit on imports on TH-cam or reddit and I can't act like it doesn't exist.
Love you Robo, keep up the great content
Burak Eren Or maybe Figuarts can do better and stop pumping out shitty figures. Otherwise people are going to talk trash about them, and not buy their products
Its because for example; this bandai is over price as hell at nearly 100$, and if you buy them both yourself, its not even as GOOD as the 20$ black series dooku lol, just compare em yourself. Don't get me wrong, I love a lot of bandai figures, but sometimes this is just NOT their strong suit.
Robo Mcgriper! Nah! You're alright man. I love how you're critical but not hateful. Keep doing what you're doing! Hope Hasbro makes a better version.
Yeah, I still want to like the figure, it just makes it hard to do, haha.
as soon as you showed it out of the box i went, "oh, oo, uh..... that's um, yeah...." as in he looks like chocolate lol
really hoping we get a black series one!
Got mine Yesterday. Wetted the Cape to make drape over the body a bit better. Improves it with a bit. Face imo is pretty spot on. I think the plastic actually feels really nice on the figure and all the articulation is nice and smooth. But yeah, the light tunic colour really throws the whole figure off. Waiting to see Robos repaint to see how much that improves it.
I don't get Christopher Lee vibes, and yeah, I wouldn't pay S.H. Figuarts prices for this.
Never apolgise for being honest Sir Robo ! You make honest reviews & pay attention to what counts (pun intended) - to both you & your fellow collectors. My SHF Dooku arrives this week (+ my SHF War Machine Mk4), so while looking forward to it I am already disappointed. I know when I pre-order an exclusive these days it's a gamble of sorts, which it shouldn't be - the Bandai SHF "Exclusives" SHOULD be their best work ! I have bets on the inevitable Black Series Dooku being several steps up from this one, given Hasbro have REALLY improved their game !
Hasbro still has a long way to go despite their improvements. Mace and Padme were not 100% there.
From that intro I have to say, and Robo tell Gus, he has my respect already
Dooku's body looks like it's made out of chocolate haha. I think I'll wait for the black series one if they ever make him
Loved the review! Don’t apologize for the “negative” aspects, speaking out makes it great for a ‘Before You Buy’ kind of thing 👍🏼
Great review Robo. Thanks!
Did you ever end up painting the tunic on this, Robo? I've been considering painting mine.
Yup, painted it black, which I guess makes it more animated series inspired, but with the Black Series as my main I'm good with that. Also replaced the head and cape, haha.
Finally yessssss
Edit the figure doesn't look nearly as good as I hoped it would
Hasbro is making a Black Series Count Dooku luckily, UPC's have leaked online, not sure if you've seen them yet, but Yak Face I think has posted them on Instagram 👍
Yeah, I saw those, I'm waiting patiently. Soooooo patiently....
Mafex is 3 figures away from their 100th figure solicited. They’ll want to make something special. Surely a Count Dooku will be the 100th.
They haven't made a Star Wars figure in a long while, which is a shame after they absolutely killed with Boba Fett.
This is supposed to be P-Bandai?? I don’t want to be that guy but I’m glad I didn’t pick this up. EPII Anakin and Padme were well worth the trouble trying to get but this figure stayed in the prototype stage and didn’t get worked on at all.
Still waiting for Obi Wan robo :)
Please do an update video on the repaint.
he won't do a repaint. have you seen his paint jobs???? lol awful
Ah, I see now, you're just here for that. Cool.
Awsome Action Figure review
Honestly it looks terrible, especially for the price. I'll wait a Black Series version of Dooku.
He’s okay. I’d rather have him, than not have him, so I guess I’m at least a little happy.
Oh, definitely, better than nothing at all.
In all honesty I don't mind the gripes you have with this figure or any figure. I know some people take it as coming off negative but it's hard not to say negative things about something that should've been better. Being an import company at a higher price point it not gripes that aren't justified for the money you have to spend on the figure. I love Count Dooku and I've been wanting a good figure of him, but I can easily just as say that the amount of wrongs with this figure that this is not a good figure. It's unfortunate but hopefully they take another shot at it or Black Seires will do Dooku some justice. Thanks for the review Robo!
Admittedly he does wear brown in ROTS but the shade of brown should still be a bit darker than this figure.
Yeah, I didn't realize that but yeah, it's still off.
I need that figure
Isn’t it also the revenge of the sith costume?
Which was still pretty dark.
Just got this in today. Very disappointed. I really hate the piece between the chest and belt line. The waist part I guess. It sits crooked and makes him look like he’s throwing a hip out for a sassy pose.
Ikr, it looks like he's flossing lol
Now you need a good custom cape and head :D
Can’t wait for the black series release of the Dook
Nothing wrong with an honest review. Not like your slinging mud or saying don't buy this. The figure needs work. I think paint and some wire in the cape would do it. The likeness doesn't look that far off to me.
Ive been lookin forward to this
Cool, oh did you ever gotten the Revenge of the Sith Obi-Wan Robo?
Yeah, just haven't gotten a chance to open it.
Wow. Now that's a lackluster figure from Figuarts. And to add insult to injury, this was an exclusive! Ugh, I agree..... that figure could've used more texturing on the entire body.
the alternate head looked like gregg popovich!
i like this figure
I think he looks more like Ian McElhinney, aka Barristan Selmy from GoT rather than Lorne Greene.
He looks more like a northern lord from GoT's!
"No no, there has been a terrible mistake my friend..."
"I will use my Darkside Mind tricks to make you, by the end of this review, love this figure".
I have mine coming in the mail in a week or so from Toy Ninja on line.
Looks great over all...pretty box too👍
The second head with the shallow eyes and raised eyebrow looks more like Christopher Lee (Count Dooku).
As always a great honest review.
But you had to get it because it’s the first 6” scale Dooku.
Exactly.
The second head's likeness looks a little bit more accurate. Not sure why, I feel like it's giving bigger Lee vibes than the first did.
Give it a dark brown wash on the tunic.
BEST TH-cam CHANNEL EVER BEST OF LUCK😂😂😂😂😂
I just want a Black Series 2pack of Asajj Ventress and the Count. PLEASE
The Cape though😕
Robo my brah, when will you be reviewing the 1:12 Phicen figure?
Female figure not male.
And Excellent Gregg Popovich fig!
Still waiting on that black series dooku. Come on hasbro, you got the photo real now and a brand new episode 3 anakin coming out. There's never been a better time to make dooku than now.
I have a feeling they will wait for the EPII 40th anniversary, even though they haven't stuck strictly to EPI for that 40th.
It’s not a brand new Anakin, it’s an archive same figure rerelease with updated face print but exact same sculpt.
Well, Gus looks much better on Dookus body than Dooku. The uniform needs a wash or something, reminds me of a bootleg. Still enjoyed hearing Robo , at least you were honest with us👍
If Hasbro makes a black series to replace this for display you could set him up kneeling without his hands like in episode 3 haha
My only complaint is that the figure has single jointed elbows.
Count doocula
Very nice of you on a Count Dooku figure I wish I could see the people when you said Lorne Greene how many people who probably did not know who he was so I guess you probably didn't like the figure
Loved the Gus head on the figure the best.
Your move, Black Series
Dooku’s saber hilt always seemed weird to me, being curved like that... I don’t think this piece looks _too_ bad. But, for some reason the plastic kind of looks a little cheap, to me.
you should do a repaint
Already painted the tunic black, already better.
The Fwoosh will you do update review after your fixes?
Is it possible to Take Off the Cape?
Desperately waiting for a Black Series Dooku
The figure looks amaising for me! I dont like when they put wire in the cape
13:37 In one of the movies he does a frontflip
The body and cape just look... weird.
Sup robo. Man that Count Dooku looks so disappointing. I have the hottoys version pre-ordered. I’ll wait till black series releases a version for my 6 inch collection. Thanks for reviewing the figure. I was thinking about getting it but frankly it didn’t wow me.
It's a shame how Dooku being the main villain in Episode 2 still has no vintage collection 3.75 figure, what a fuckin shame to one one of the greatest actor Sir Christopher Lee
It just bothers me that they didn’t make his shirt and pants black like it is in the movie. That’s like one of the easiest things to get right on a figure.
In ROTS his tunic is dark brown not black.
Christian Cividino but the brown tunic on this figure is too light of a brown
This looks like a black series quality... maybe that's why there's no window on the box lol. Very smart marketing
Naw, I bet the Black Series will do better. And all Soul Web exclusive use just a box.
Glad I stick with the original trilogy figures. The sculpt looked much better in the proto pics. I guess most figure lines suffer that from time to time. Great review Robo!!
@@lonewolfmcquade8879 Maybe. Probably the paint app more than sculpt. SHF is my favorite, most consistent fugure line; but still have their hiccups. This is one of them. I'll stick with their OT figures. Better for my wallet, anyway.
@@lonewolfmcquade8879 Feel your pain. I recently inherited a sewing machine and I'm currently experimenting with making my own wired softgoods capes etc. Starting with a proper 1/12 Vader cape with black chain. Wish me luck!
@@lonewolfmcquade8879 Agreed. More posing options with softgoods. Always room for improvement.
Damn u robo! You've made me want to buy the hot toys version. 😅
Yes, it looks not really like Sir Christopher Lee, more like a Black Series Figure ... pre-facescan.
