Let's Chat About the Skeleton Crew for a little over an hour

[@CorellianCollectiblesTBS]

Always love your reviews, Mike. It’s good to be part of this side of the collecting world where people can still dislike things and not be total jerks to others about it. Have this whole set and I’m very happy with it. Definitely an underestimated wave. Looking forward to the rest of the series.

[@MikeKaess]

VERY underestimated.

[@MatthewPalanca]

I never noticed Neel's little comb-over. Amazing

[@MikeKaess]

It’s my favorite part

[@StarWarsCollective]

Love you’re reviews Mike! I’m new to collecting the Black Series. Hasbro Pulse has a lot of cool figures however I’m trying to snag the ones that aren’t easily obtainable from EBay right now. Seems to be a buyers market currently. Thanks for making great content!

[@MikeKaess]

@@StarWarsCollective definitely a buyers market! The best time to get into the line! Welcome!

[@Chief-Solarize]

Thanks for going over these Mr.Mike

[@MikeKaess]

Thanks for watching!

[@TreebeardsToyBox]

Great video as always! Watching for the second time.

[@MikeKaess]

Yay!

[@GenX_Brian]

Great review Mike. Enjoyed it👍🏻. You may have convinced me to pick all of them up.

[@MikeKaess]

You're gonna love them!

[@fulcrum2867]

I think the little tools in Wim's backpack are the shovels they used to dig the door of the ship open in episode 1

[@MikeKaess]

It makes sense

[@jonathanhampshire6856]

Well I just watch the entire review in one go. That's how entertaining you are Mike. Well that and Storm Darragh is battering us in the UK at the mo. High winds and persistsnt rain. The sculpts look pretty spot on to me, though Jude Law's fizzog seems a smidge off. I would like better articulation (always) and some shading on the figs to bring out the details, but ho hum, it is what it is. Elephant boy and wolfy are the stand outs. Something that nighles me about Star Wars aliens is that they often wear human proportioned shoes? I'm glad the show seems to be pretty well liked by most. About time Star Wars gave the sense of joy I had watching it as a little lad.

[@MikeKaess]

That means a lot to me

[@ageis]

Great review, Mike! I bought Brutus so far from this line. I am waiting to see how the series progresses before buying any others, but I did enjoy the first two episodes.

[@ageis]

Btw, the box mural/art shows where his weapons fit. It took me a while to figure that out haha.

[@MikeKaess]

@@ageis that’s fucking smaaaart. Why didn’t I figure that out?

[@ageis]

@@MikeKaess

[@MikeKaess]

For what it’s worth, I just looked at him in the beginning of the episode and I guessed right on every blaster.

[@ageis]

@@MikeKaess That’s awesome. Not me, I struggled for 5-10 minutes before looking at the box. 🫠

[@SuperYodaDude]

Great video Mike, loved your ‘opening’ of each figure 😂 I am really enjoying the show which I did to expect, and Neel also reminds me of myself as a kid 👍 I appreciate the detail on these figures, I’m more in collecting SW Lego and purchased the The Onyx Cinder on a good sale mainly for the minifigs. Anyway keep up the great work with the videos dude!

[@MikeKaess]

thanks for watching, my dude!

[@robertoorrego4374]

I would love a captain silvo figure. he had no screen time but he looked so cool. honestly I want the whole pirate crew but silvo first

[@MikeKaess]

Star Wars is full of cool looking characters with no screen time! It’s tradition!

[@jonathanandersen778]

Honestly all you may need is a new head for a Jod when they reveal their the same character

[@robertoorrego4374]

@jonathanandersen778 I'm aware it's likely the same character but the whole outfit is different too not just the head

[@jasonindoe7540]

I love the show, figs are great too. Just ordered the wave. As usual, best SW fig reviewer on youtube. Cant wait to see your top 10 of 2024.

[@MikeKaess]

@@jasonindoe7540 aww man. That made my day. Thanks.

[@jasonindoe7540]

@@MikeKaess anytime.

[@Jo3.b.1]

Yesss!! 🙌 Looking forward to this one!

[@MikeKaess]

@@Jo3.b.1 hope you enjoyed!

[@Jo3.b.1]

@MikeKaess Definitely! Great video, and as always a highlight to the day 💯

[@prophet924]

Jod is definitely Long John Silver. I also agree that he needs that awesome pirate hat shaped helmet. Off to the 3D sculptors! I bought Jod, Neel, and Brutus first weeks ago too. I was excited for the show so I wanted some toys . Neel is awesome! He’s the best. He and Brutus is just the best. Wim is ok. I agree face is not angular enough. Same with Fern but not to the same degree. Fern is surprising as a character. I like her. Fern has her jacket inside out with her personal patches for her races. I want her bike. Multipack with KB/Fern and Bike would sell. I’ll just make my own. KB is the most natural of all the kids sculpture. I agree her visor should have moved up. I’m sure as the show continues there will be accessories we want. I’m looking forward to SM-33 and hope his limbs extend. Brutus! God I hope more pirates are made. Please Hasbro… oh yeah Love the show! There’s mystery in the kids home At Attin. I love the reverse treasure Map twist. It’s a hunt for getting home and that has mystery(ies): secret Imperial base/First Order? Secret treasure home of pirates? Just a strict new Republic place that could use a Footloose moment to remove the security droid sticks up their bottom?

[@pletho79]

Thanks Mike! Good call waiting for the show, I enjoyed hearing your thoughts. Neel, KB, Brutus, SM33 and homeworld mystery are cool. Obv Miss Coulter telling kids "this test will decide your life" is an off vibe. My biggest fear is they won't bring the creepy enough to really excel in this genre but we'll see...

[@MikeKaess]

We’ll see! Fingers crossed they keep up the fun!

[@joep84]

Arrrr matey, I’ve been out on most new media figs but might need to pick up that Brutus. ‘Twas a fun review laddy, Arrrg!

[@MikeKaess]

Brutus be good gettins, m'laddy!

[@lowellmartens6135]

I am enjoying the show, but I think I may pass on most of these figures. I am running out of room for new casts.

[@MikeKaess]

Room is a huge factor for sure

[@TroyWarsHere]

The show is great so far. Hopefully we don’t all get disappointed cause it’s just fun right now

[@MikeKaess]

I have faith

[@hootermckoolski5020]

KB could be a ghost buster. She just needs her proton pack.

[@MikeKaess]

for sure! I wonder if I could dig out my proton packs from the GBs in a bin in the garage.

[@RinaJosscy]

I think the kids got thigh swivels because they will come with their speeder eventually. I hope...

[@MikeKaess]

God I hope so

[@TK-qn2ch]

I passed on all these except Brutus. Since pirates need a sword, I gave Brutus the sword that came with Dok Ondar.

[@MikeKaess]

Good idea

[@Moscra25]

Kinda weird, but I lowkey want them to make those surveillance camera droids

[@MikeKaess]

Same

[@JohnnyDisco-bg7si]

I like the connected image on the box art. Also, just some Dude Law.

[@MikeKaess]

Dude Law.. that's so good. I hate that I didnt think of it first.

[@ToySnowman]

Well I guess I gotta watch the show now for the Blue Berry

[@MikeKaess]

@@ToySnowman he’s a special boy who must be protected.

[@bendejo2012]

He looks like they reused the Zendaya head from ML Spider-Man 28:47

@@bendejo2012 I see it!

[@WolfMoon351]

I really hope Captain Brutus becomes a Hot Toy figure as well. 😭🤞

[@MikeKaess]

he'd be amazing.

[@andsoistopped]

How about Maz Kanata’s crate? He could pop his foot on that.

Another one!

[@Do0msday]

The most unbelievable thing I've ever heard in a video involving Star Wars is Mike claiming he once had hair. But seriously...I would protect Neel with my life. I have never related more with a character than I do with him...right down to the pretend lightsaber fight. And I'm digging that Brutus figure -- a lot. The rest (besides Neel) seem really plain. They're the type where you need to have all of them or else they make zero sense and look weird next to others. I think they have to be scored as a group rather than solo -- except for Neel and Brutus. The Wim figure looks boring beyond belief. The first thing I thought of when I saw him was the Finn from Jakku figure with the tan jacket. It's just........boring. Overall I think they're solid and I cannot wait to see a SM-33 figure. I was bummed out by how all over the place the Acolyte was, but Skeleton Crew feels like a fun Star Wars adventure that we've been waiting for. I LOVED the first 2 episodes.

[@MikeKaess]

I did! Growing up I hate thick hair!

[@deadmaninc0101]

I feel like it is a crime that the "CASE" on your shirt is not spelled "KAESS"

[@MikeKaess]

I also thought that, but I bought this anyways.

[@RyanByrne999]

Who's Nee All?

[@MikeKaess]

More than nee some!

[@garethjames1300]

Brutus aside these remind of figures you buy then 6 months later you wonder why did i buy them, im amazed at your ability to like everything. These are also gonna be reduced at some point but then what doesnt get reduced these days. Show is MEH ! More girlboss who would have guessed that!

[@anakincrespin]

21:35 wow nice job putting down a slave boy for not having as nice a backpack as a rich suburban kid from the treasure planet of At Attin!!! 😤

[@MikeKaess]

You know what’s funny is that when I look at it closely, it’s a very nice hard clam shell backpack usually used for people on motorcycles. So it’s really a nice backpack.

[@apollo1015]

Yep some star wars fans don't get Goonies in star wars then they will not get it,so funny,😂😭😁😊

[@apollo1015]

Yep so why not,kinda getting bored with black series channels,yeh like boba fett had a 1.38mins in the og,that's cool,you not get it but you should lol
