X-Wing - Deluxe Movement Tools and Range Ruler - Unboxing and Painting!

[@dominiclemire2540]

1 minute 14 secondes. That was so funny! That's part of why I like that much your videos. Still "real" like this and you will always keep us (your crowd) with you :)

[@PsychJ7]

Wow that paint looks amazing. Gonna have to buy 3 of these to prep for when the death star comes out and shoots at range 15

[@aeroarcher6280]

Thanks for the review. I was particularly undecided about buying these.

[@Parakitor]

I bought a set because the only acrylic I have is from way early in First Edition, and I was thinking of buying some new ones with the center lines anyway. I am very pleased with them, but they'll look even better when painted. I mostly play Galactic Empire and First Order, so I will be painting these up to represent Stormtroopers. Can't wait!

[@abenegron1751]

Looks really cool!

[@mikenthestan]

Like the range rule. But not sure if i will get it . Cool paint thought

[@MegaSilver]

Crabbok, it said in the article that you'll use normal templates to move the Huge ships. Thanks for the review! Also for the repaint you did, slap some Nuln Oil or another wash and it'll pop more!

[@ConsummateGamer]

Picked up a set on Friday and love ‘em. Great value.

[@charlielara1578]

Cool test for new paint

[@saintseiyablade]

Good job with the paint!

[@Bushvmd]

Deluxe is an understatement.

[@dubbydapanda7189]

The color shift paint would be so cool for a cloaking stealth ship

[@epicon6]

Looked much nicer in black

[@reignman2263]

I FINALLY broke down and decided to make the shift to 2.0! Got a Core Set coming, and hopefully by the time we're rolling out to Indy for GenCon, I'll have at least two of the big 3 conversion kits. That said, I'm on the fence on this set. Sure, the collapsible range ruler is pretty cool and all, but on the same token, I already have range rulers (and soon another one) that work just fine. Eh, we'll see. That galaxy paint is VERY cool! A thought about how the range ruler fits together: what about gently sanding down the connecting pegs a little bit. It might make the pegs a little smaller, and make for a looser fit. Just a random thought!

[@nancyleerollins7363]

The color looks nice

[@blainebrixey6264]

If they have a red/orange/yellow color changing paint, you could paint the other side of the templates a different color. You’d have a different color just by flipping the template.

[@madhippy3]

Did they give you enough for epic range or was it so you could make a range 1, Range 2, and range 3 ruler individually

[@relink555]

Problem is the male connector piece makes it hard to use without the endcap

[@davidcottam7967]

Hi can you use moment rulers for searnten mearnevr

[@fastwalker0]

Love my Curled Paw Creatives acrylic templates. These FFG templates look too thick and cheap. I do like the Testors paint you used.

[@MauiWayfinder]

liking that paint job

[@thebunker1618]

The depth of these looks too thick. Do they sit right in the base slot?

[@jonathangoodman9840]

That would be a fun paint for some cool looking Armada bases....

[@dewaynemcquillan4592]

not for me . don't like how there are made . look cheap

[@epicon6]

Looked pretty nice in black though..

[@SteveSpikes]

Are you planning to paint the numbers a different color?

[@Crabbok]

Nah, because of this paint, it's really glossy when dry, so I couldn't easily paint over it. If I did it again though, I could in theory paint the numbers a different color FIRST - and then see what happens after the top coat.

[@Revanur1]

Wish you also showed us how the templates fit in the slots on the fighters as they do look a bit thick. For the rest great video and paint job!

[@林杰-n9s]

Huge ship expansion and Conversion pack will come with the maneuver template, the preview article some days ago just didn't show it yet...

[@MegaSilver]

It said in the article that you'll use the normal templates.

[@林杰-n9s]

Yes, and it said a plastic huge ship maneuver tool will be also in the kit and expansion, so there will be something new coming for sure.

[@istartfiresfoster1]

I think I would still prefer a good acrylic set

[@SteveSpikes]

I would too. There are so many awesome third-party acrylics available today. 'Sides, I love my acrylics from Curled Paw Creatives.

[@DMB00085]

Just converted to 2.0. (Returning Player) Love the channel! I just picked these up today. I really like the look of just the white primer that you did. Is there anything wrong with just white primer and a wash?

[@Crabbok]

Nothing wrong with that. I will say, after more research, that if you decide to use any type of colorshift paint that you should prime in a glossy black first, as it'll make the effect work better.

[@DMB00085]

@@Crabbok I think I have decided to primer in all black and paint the numbers and arrows white. Keep it cheap and simple.

[@DMB00085]

Just emailed you the final result of my painting excursion. Happy New Year!

[@TheGrumbleduke]

I wonder if that's part of why they delayed this set of expansions; they didn't want the Movement Tool to come out before they'd published the preview for the Huge Ships?

[@relink555]

The maneuver tool for epic ships is apparently plastic, at least in the ship packs

[@phillipbernhardt-house6907]

"Cool stuff...don't know how long it will last..." Much the same could be said for...well, really, almost anything, yes? ;) I have one of these on the way with my Wave 4 stuff, which I hope will arrive tomorrow or Tuesday, or Wednesday at the latest!

[@jovanvazquez1697]

Nice color for some ships will look good

[@saml9772]

If you did it on the white primer it would have showed up a lot better lighter primer with that changing color paint looks a lot better in my opinion

[@Hedgehobbit]

Wish it had a wing tool to really support Epic play.

[@ReallyBigBadAndy76]

I'd love to see you use that paint on the Legion Landspeeder. The range tools look cheaply made, not very attractive and less functional in every way than cardboard or acrylic versions. The width makes half maneuvers (for crashes) and just generally dealing with them likely to be a huge pain. I'm not sure why they thought this was a good idea. There are so many other ways they could have dealt with premium range tools...

[@relink555]

I'd probably throw some thinned blue shade in the recesses

[@davidcottam7967]

Hi i just got my rang ruler

[@talhaiqbal6798]

Just picked these up and I have to say that putting the range ruler together is immensely difficult. I see no way of putting it together without breaking the connector pieces. Scratch that. Impossible. Anyone else have this issue or am I just really doing it wrong?

[@thelastmotel]

It's just you

[@talhaiqbal6798]

@@thelastmotel Lol thanks, after half hour it finally worked and I wasn't the only one with trouble

[@brandanalan5175]

Can someone educate me on the purpose of these, please.

[@SeanChriscole]

My range ruler broke first time out of the box. 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@erichludwig2095]

Meh. I think I’ll skip this. The range ruler looks interesting, but not enough to justify getting the whole set

[@wildkatze69]

Acrylics, acrylics, acrylics. No question for me. Sorry not digging the sparkly colour. But each on his own.

[@davidcottam7967]

For x-wing

[@ManfredHKohler]

The 3 hard turn is different from original

[@aeroarcher6280]

The 3 hard template is a different size?

[@geerstyresoil3136]

agreed, these "Deluxe" tools don't look durable enough

[@Puzzu]

Cool but I think my acrylic templates from Etsy look nicer than the gray plastic of these FFG templates...

[@Bushvmd]

I would rather just use the regular movement tools.

[@MedicSV93]

Big nope! Unfortunately...Like the color, though!

[@zauberorangereturns727]

Ah i don't know , the range tool espically looks kinda boring out of the box

[@scopedog9197]

Large and bulky...pass...

[@TheFumanchewie]

The fan made templates on etsy are way better! These are just blah

[@DerExxe]

Horrible cheap plastic! Take a look at the rulers from "Kraken Wagames" pls.
