Hot Toys 501st Clone Trooper Deluxe Unboxing & Review

[@nickolasjackson4902]

The yellow coloring on the box represents the clone wars theme. If you look at the reveal photos there’s the giant clone wars logo

true story

[@jeffleung8291]

Damn it, I was set on not getting the 501st batlalion but after your posing segment, I really want to get at least 2 now....... thanks for breaking my wallet

[@JedhaPatrol]

you're welcome!

[@tommygorman171]

DUDE!!! That pose with Anakin, ARE YOU KIDDING?! Those poses were amazing. Definitely need 2, considering getting at least one from overseas now. My favorite video you have done for sure!

[@JedhaPatrol]

Awesome to hear!

[@howardpotts1839]

MRCcollectionventures is usually first since he is in HK and picks up his orders directly from Secret Base and Justin does great unboxings/reviews, his style being more on the "this is what it is and this is what you get" side of the house. Even after watching both of their vids, Im still always eager/pumped for your vids to drop. Your style, passion, and poses... 2nd to none! Big thanks as always! Keep bringing the heat duuuuude!

[@JedhaPatrol]

Probably my favorite comment of 2021. Thanks for that

[@jor89088]

Man, cant wait to get mine...by next year, still waiting on my captain america from sideshow, so who knows when i'll get my 501st.

[@ismaelali9422]

SAME!

[@JedhaPatrol]

lol...facts

[@MikeFaraci]

Not gonna lie… this whole Endgame Cap thing has me thinking about using Sideshow for in-stock figures only. 2nd batch prices from Pop Collectibles are usually pretty good in comparison.

[@chasestrickland9880]

Second pose was fire, I have 3 already ordered but deciding if I need to make that 6+ with how incredible these are

[@JedhaPatrol]

This is the way

[@decorumnation4340]

Your Cody pointing pose is right out of the Genndy CW cartoon great job capturing that vibe! The missing troopers will fill out the army building perfectly!

[@JedhaPatrol]

yeah man! thanks

I don't have the money to get a lot. But I am getting one! Gonna go with my ahsoka/rex/maul!

[@BenD0v3r32]

Yeah, I don't see a point in buying more since Im not gonna be making a scene with them, nor do I have space for it. Would buy more if they weren't so damn expensive tho.

1 will be fantastic as well. Gratz!

[@JedhaPatrol]

Oh thank you!

[@emmanuelcordero-garrison596]

The flat droid popper was a thermal detonator that you place down like C-4 but there is a thermal detonator that you throw like a droid popper as well

[@feelingthenotes5066]

This is freakin epic Jedha. The Anakin pose by far was the most epic out of the 3 you did. I do have 3 coming. . I think watching the poses and pairing up with other Hot Toys really made me want to get more. The range of display ideas, the different helmets, an epic season 7, the new Ahsoka series, your excitement, your posing, I am planning on getting a variety of Clone Wars Hot Toys. Will getting more deluxe troopers make sense to what I am planning and be justified? Absolutely.

[@feelingthenotes5066]

That aside. Its a Hot Toys figure. The quality, the accessories, the options to pair with other figures, the articulation, its 1/6th. I think for any fan of Star Wars Clone Wars that this Trooper by Hot Toys would be a great addition to the collection if its in the budget.

[@JedhaPatrol]

Thanks for the kind words. I do love these things!

[@TropheusJon]

Have you tried the Cad Bane sculpt on this yet? :)

[@ChickenSupreme]

I'm bummed I wasn't able to get into collecting these amazing figurines until last year. I would have loved to have gotten Echo and Fives way back when, but I did manage to get a Rex and just pre-ordered Hunter and Bad Batch Echo. I can't wait!

[@noahmayes9134]

Do you think the 332 helmet that comes with Rex will be usable? Say on the clone trooper?

[@punkfloyd]

I think the phase 1 definitely looks better in person, it might be a little bit big, could be how the shoulder pads look on p1 Cody tho…I think it looks fantastic tho! The trigger hand works great as a holding hand for the rotary blaster but I do agree they dropped the ball with no trigger hand for that weapon. I’m getting 2 more, one from Stephen’s collectibles and one from alter ego. 9/10

[@ryanr8267]

Jedha, you killed it on the poses boss man!

[@envy22418]

Damn you Jedha!! Those poses at the end sold me!! Immediately left the video and bought 2 🤣🤣

[@shanedisspain416]

The posing was Great!!! More troopers will be Epic! Yep I think I need more than two 😁

[@JedhaPatrol]

This is the way

[@kombatevolve]

I liked all the posing! Got 3 deluxe and 1 reg..... So far. U think 212th & Airborne soon? What about Capt Vaughan?

[@JedhaPatrol]

I think generic clones are a better bet.

[@kombatevolve]

@@JedhaPatrol ugh but ok.

[@gonickyourself]

Huge flex Ryan, your enthusiasm is contagious! I might be down for 3x. Not sure yet…

[@Fallen1916-p9b]

I just got my 501st today. I have him posed flying with the jetpack and the Z-6 rotary blaster cannon, but now I'm thinking about getting another one to put with Ahsoka. Love the video; keep them coming.

[@adrianunderwood8642]

Just got my Rey, beautiful figure, HT done a great job with that particular figure, very happy!

[@JedhaPatrol]

Agreed!!

[@masonbarber4261]

Are you ordering the Jango Fett and Boba 2pk when they come out? All the Temura Morrison sculpts would look great next to each other in a display with Clone regs in the mix

[@JedhaPatrol]

most definitely getting all the Fetts

[@zachfierro7105]

"no issues, whatsoever." *entire leg come apart*

[@JedhaPatrol]

:) can't predict these things lol

[@smurphy2807]

Just subscribed. Love your passion and detailed review. Definitely getting this one.

[@dans5662]

Opened mine too. Honestly to me this figure feels a bit rushed. My feet/ ankle joints had a issue, feet seem really loose and pop off easily. I honestly think the HotToys New Hope Stormtroopers were made better.

[@larpowell2396]

That first pose was the best! Great review as always!!

[@JedhaPatrol]

Thanks Lar!

[@frankdarko7518]

Not a big prequel fan and was not planning on getting this one, but I might have to add one to the shelf after watching.

[@JedhaPatrol]

awesome!

[@lukeryan1600]

Dude I can feel your hype through the video. This big clone project sounds awesome can’t wait to see it completed.

[@JedhaPatrol]

Can't wait!

[@venomtec313]

Dude I like it man. Thus deluxe version does bring a lot of accessories. And it looks really really good.

[@doomedachilles1409]

If you do a posing tutorial you should try using the blaster pistols that came with Cody. I think you could get some sick aerial poses with the rocket launcher.

[@JedhaPatrol]

It could happen

[@BXDRAGONX1]

Awesome poses.

[@bryanchin8330]

Did u notice the weathering effect or so called dry brushing was printed on? Those paint applications are exactly the same on each every clones.

[@JedhaPatrol]

too be expected. nothing new

[@Brickington23]

If you swap Anakin for Darth Vader in that pose segment it would be nothing short of Star Wars Legends perfection.

[@tube483]

I did get 2 deluxe 501st troopers might get another one so ill have 3 and rex alone with cody that I'm buying for $350 from a fellow patrol member on friday. Im honestly excited

[@billydar]

great review! do you think hot toys will review and repair the phase 1 helmet for batch 2?

[@JedhaPatrol]

Probably not

[@billydar]

@@JedhaPatrol so my clone trooper just arrived. yes they didn’t repair the phase 1 helmet. but they revised the name plate

[@darthqui-gon5986]

There's one thing I've noticed on a site I don't know if you heard of it called Justin's collection and in that video you can actually make the top of the jetpack blasting out of the bottom half of the jetpack by taking the little pointy pot off and using one of the flame effects fitting into the bottom of the Top Pot and then the bottom part slides right into the bottom part of the jetpack. I'll probably be displaying mine with the phase one helmet simply because I absolutely love it despite it looking slightly bigger I still think it looks incredible. Like I said that was the main reason for me to buy this one and I hope Sideshow gets it in soon. Unfortunately I can't afford a shit ton of these so I only have the one coming and the shock trooper coming I absolutely love the paint apps of the shock trooper the 501st are very close second. I'm sure I'll still be able to do some cool poses with the two different clones I have Anakin got to have the chosen one so I'm looking forward to seeing what I could do when I get these two clones but I mainly bought this one to get a phase 1 clone until they do an attack of the Clones clone trooper in the shock trooper the represent the episode 3 Clone Trooper but I know I'll be switching up the heads cuz I can't stop playing with these things once I get them that's half the fun of owning them. I definitely like your first pose best when they were saving the other Clone. I wish I could afford more. I'd still like to re buy back the sideshow one's ahead the white veteran and the 501st but they go for a pretty penny on the secondary Market. But I got a total of six figures on pre-order and paid off. This one the shock trooper, Clone Wars Maul, the good General, Jango Fett and the tusken Raider. If I happen to come into a little extra money I'll definitely pick up another one of these.

[@JedhaPatrol]

sounds like a fantastic collection in the making!

[@decorumnation4340]

Oh and epic poses as usual great job!

[@JedhaPatrol]

Thank you very much!

[@Riley.Reviews]

Well done with those poses Jedha. Well. DONE! 👏🏼

[@JedhaPatrol]

Thanks Riley

[@OpuimAhBro]

I’m pretty sure none of those are droid peppers. The one with the flat side is one that you can attach to stuff and then detonated.

[@darthqui-gon5986]

I think it's definitely the shoulder armour throwing it off. The main reason I bought this was for the Phase 1 helmet which is my favorite trooper helmet from the entire Saga episodes 1 through 6. In the movie they do look a bit slimmer Maybe it might be possible it's a little wider in the Clone Wars. But at least the 501st looks completely accurate to the movie. I'm praying they do in Attack of the Clones clone trooper. But I've seen the phase one and a lot of poses and it looks absolutely fine could just be the eyes Playing Tricks on you it's hard to tell I cannot wait to get mine in hand. I think either way it looks Kick-Ass

[@JedhaPatrol]

we definitely need more clones. This could be dangerous for our wallets lol

I’d like to order a couple of these early from overseas to avoid the wait,but I don’t want the messed up nameplate issue.Should I let that stop me? Your opinion would be helpful.

[@JedhaPatrol]

Only you can answer that

[@Zombie0303]

@@JedhaPatrol do you at least think it’s likely they’ll send out fixed nameplates?

[@sleepingninjaquiettime]

The smaller shoulder armor looks a lot more practical. I think a lot of US armor art designs are based on bulky football shoulder pads and always look pretty impractical but whatevs. In reality you would want armor that's light and of the way. If the whole suit had a bulkier design I would imagine bigger shoulder pauldrons would be the way to go.

[@bullrules33]

Wow awesome video Jedha awesome that pose with the 3 of them was 🔥 best one hands down. I know when you get all that you ordered you are going to make a great posing video but man I know it’s going to take a long long time. Thanks bud.

[@decorumnation4340]

Great video as always. For me the phase 1 helmet is not oversized it is a perfect representation of a persons head inside of a helmet. It is the rest of the body armor that is undersized it looks like a super skinny person is in there.

[@JedhaPatrol]

Fair enough!

[@bjrnhalfhand2258]

Really looking forward to getting mine. Fantastic release. Great paint, weathering and impressive articulation for an armoured figure. I was planning on using the phase 1 helmet. I love the design of them. I agree, sadly the phase 1 helmet is oversized in this release and in my opinion looks ridiculous on the figure. If they ever do a AOTC Clone Trooper I hope they resize it. Good thing this release comes with a really well done phase 2 helmet I can use instead. That's my only major gripe. The typo on the base plate will definitely bug me (though to be fair, I'm now thinking I won't use bases, to maximise the posing opportunities for a group of clones) but overall it's a great release. Some awesome poses at the end of the vid (my favourite is the battle scene including Cody and the droid)

[@JedhaPatrol]

probably won't fix the phase 1 size, but I'm happy with the 332nd helmets

[@bjrnhalfhand2258]

@@JedhaPatrol yeah they won't change the phase 1 for this figures later batches but I hold out hope they will if they do a AOTC phase 1 Clobe Trooper. Luckily this fig comes with 2 other fantastic helmet choices.
