Star Wars Black Series Archive Wave 2 Darth Maul, Anakin, Scout Trooper, and Yoda Hasbro Review

[@skelling5991]

Everything you said at the end is true. Im so glad, that Hasbro rereleased them. Because of the archive series I could finally own a scoutrooper and I could complete the bounty hunters with Bossk and IG-88. Thanks for the funny and detailed reviews.

[@mortis3270]

Yoda: "You like what you see?" Me: Spits water out of my mouth laughing so hard.

[@theramblinmahoney2316]

Not gonna lie, I dig the 20+ minute videos of you reviewing multiple figures at once. Keep up the great work bro!

[@farrelariefatx554]

Same!

[@TheFwoosh]

I just get excited when I get the whole wave, and can't help going at them all at once, haha.

[@theramblinmahoney2316]

The Fwoosh I totally understand and hey seems like I’m not the only one who enjoys them. (:

[@teddybearjedi8865]

I agree. I like these Complete Wave Reviews. 👍

[@KEVMAN7987]

I was so happy when Hasbro decided to start the Archive Collection. Now I could finally get figures I missed out on without paying exorbitant prices on the secondary market.

[@TheFwoosh]

Exactly, it's a win win for collectors.

[@fatboyslim2732]

That changed

[@potatogaming6893]

@@fatboyslim2732 well yah it’s been two years of course they are more expensive now

[@fatboyslim2732]

@@potatogaming6893 yeah i know but they should still be avaliable for people even teo years later. These are the best versions of these figures yet they are now worth 80-100 dollars.

[@potatogaming6893]

@@fatboyslim2732 I think we will see a new anakin soon maybe one without the sith head

[@Taipan108]

I think if they gave Yoda a wee hunchback like the ‘80s original it would help with the likeness. His head is great though.

[@nathsu29]

Now Hasbro just needs to do this type of stuff for Marvel Legends. I know that there's the vintage line but those are redesigns. I want a true rerelease of Marvel Legends from when it came back. Great video again Robo! Your videos really do make my day!

[@scruffynerd84]

totally agree with your end statement. I saw so many people complain about the super7 Thundercats wave. I don't have 200 for ebay lion-o and mum ra. I don't mind re-issues cause it allows me to save my money for the next round. Most times I try to help people on reddit forums to find figures they don't have yet. Hoping figures go up in value is not the reason to be collecting.

[@clothedchickenchalupa2564]

That intro was amazing lol. It's great to see you reviewing these figures, especially since they don't have much traction. I have most of the wave except for the scout trooper which I am iffy on due to it not having a speed bike. Nonetheless you keep your well balanced humor and honesty in this review. Great as always Robo!

[@addisonhemmings3620]

Can Hasbro do this with marvel legends I need a green goblin

[@urbz6712]

We need a Hob Goblin and Rhino. Make it happen Hasbro.

[@TheFwoosh]

Haha, mission accomplished!

[@benfrakes7]

Nice PSA at the end, 100% agreed

[@Toybountyhunter1974]

Gotta get all of them. Missed out on all but the Scout trooper, but I gotta get him too cause it'll look great to have him next to the bike and the other trooper like they're having a conversation or something...plus i just love scout troopers

[@TheFwoosh]

It's just a neat design, I'll scatter a few through the shelves.

[@immortalsennin605]

That sith Anakin head sculpt looks like Bill Murray in his zombie make-up from Zombieland. Now I can't unsee it.

[@MrHandsomeStudios]

New Yoda - basically Yoda Old Yoda - High on ketamine

[@ReconFigures]

Great summary at the end here. I honestly wish Hasbro would do this approach of reissues with Marvel Legends too. I missed out on a few of these archive figures and I appreciate them being re-released AND with various improvements! There's no pressure to buy them all, or buy them AT ALL. Just buy 'em if you want them! Hasbro has made some great choices when it comes to the Archive collection. I hope they continue to do these, but I'm sure they're reaching the point where the selections aren't so special now.

[@LuisGonzalez-bi7nx]

Bro I'm with u of wat u said at the end. That old Yoda does look scary lol..

[@graefx]

Every now and again there's a figure that makes me wanna be an on card collector. Might have to get an extra Maul. I've just accepted that Anakin and Yoda are just figures that need a redo. Yoda I'd accept single joint elbows if that's necessary for bicep rotation. Head still holds up though. Solid wave, I'm glad for it

[@JasonSwank]

You're the best Robo. 100% agree with your closing statement. Thanks for keeping it real.

[@Caleb.Collects98]

I love the Archive Series! I've gotten Boba Fett, Bossk, IG88, Anakin, and Darth Maul so far. Man I can't unseen the inaccuracies on the Darth Maul head. LOL

[@kadeneichhorn7370]

Use a toothpick and black paint to fix it

[@adrianwilliams7790]

It must be nice to have a Gamestop that sells Black Series. Or any shop that sells them, for that matter.

[@KEVMAN7987]

None of my stores ever have anything. All of my figures end up being Internet purchases. Be it Big Bad Toy Store, Toywiz, or eBay.

[@SirG.L.RIC.KAGE-Esq]

@@KEVMAN7987 Most curious. Where do you reside? Location is very important after all.

[@cerethpainting6606]

The MPC speeder bike model scales pretty well with these guys!

[@markbruce80]

"We're not trying to put anyone through college" haha. Robo, great point though on the reason behind the rerelease....it feels good to know a figure you have has increased in value....but let's not forget what brought us here - love of action figs.

[@Obitogojoskywalker7787]

I actually wish I should have gotten the Anakin and Darth Maul archive figures when I had the chance

[@fmart3315]

My scout trooper broke at the knee as soon as I took it out of the package, is Neca making these now?!?

[@angeloapurillo7423]

Hey Robo, big fan of your videos. Totally agree with you on this, it gives others a chance to get figures who missed out when they released the first time...I recently got into the line and was able to significally make my collection more diverse due to the archive figures. Hope you and your loved ones are safe...

[@SpaceAcex]

Great point about figures being limited. Everyone should enjoy collecting.

[@Jayce800]

Finally found this Anakin in a Wal-Mart and I passed to get a Mattel Alfred Pennyworth anniversary fig. In the end I’m glad I did it (even though I’ve been looking for this wave forever!)

[@EvilLordSauron]

That opening scene was pure gold 😂

[@ethanglover8244]

i was recently at walmart and let me tell you freaking tempting to buy, yoda is, hmm yes

[@yodamasterjedi1701]

hmm resist why did you

[@agtkilo03]

Ay my Walmart they only have two figs not worthy of remembrance... they haven’t got new ones since.. I don’t know

[@forrestpenrod2294]

We definitely need Cody and the Order 66 Pack Clone Troopers. I’ve only been collecting Black Series for little over a year now and it’s very discouraging how expensive aftermarket prices get.

[@axel.1358]

You're totally right with your little shpeel at the end of your video, I always wanted anikin and the biker scout and I needed ig 88 to finish my bounty hunters but the online prices were just so undermotivating, this has revitalized my love for the line and I've spent maybe a little too much now that I'm back into it lol!!

[@Tuckster1979]

I was definitely very happy to find the whole wave at my target since I’m pretty new to collecting

[@darthamrel]

The Maul face paint are different figure to figure. The Maul I picked up has connecting lines.

[@someguy7567]

I really like this packaging.

[@CaptianPurple333]

I love star wars. I've never been a big on collecting the figures but I enjoy you're reviews.

[@TheFwoosh]

Thanks man, I appreciate that!

[@Megatron118x]

I got Anakin. Definitely like the figure, but I wish the neck joint wasn’t so obvious and visible. Also would prefer if the soft goods was a little more form-fitting like the SHF. But overall, pretty great figure. Great reviews Robo

[@MK7-MephistoKevin777]

Not sure if I've ever commented before, But I've watched a Lot of your figure reviews, This was good for me because I was thinking about getting a second Darth Maul (Just to display one with robed head, as well as the extra (angrier) head without the outer robes) Also I now see the improvements on Anakin so I'll probably get that at some point too, I already got the Biker Scout Trooper with (And without) The speeder (For same reasons you had, One on the Speeder, One standing with other soldiers) As for Yoda, the face is a Mega improvement and I'm glad I never got the old one, Thanks for all these great videos that help me make decisions about figures, Being able to see them out of packaging before buying online, Most eBay sellers use ''Hasbro promotional pics from Google image search'' and that makes me cautious !!! Sometimes I'd rather buy an open figure because the seller shows the actual item for sale, Your videos are the Best for SW 6 inch figure collectors !!! have a good day

[@castielffboi]

The Anakins blue blade always looked that colour the one you compared it to was the X-Wing Luke figures saber. No changes to the lightsaber on Anakin

[@ethancoolbro18gamer86]

Darth Maul is my favorite Star Wars character

[@jodyshirley4703]

My favorites outta the archive line is Bossk And Boba Fett

[@nhyar]

Can't believe this Yoda has more articulation points than the Spider Ham figure.

[@Red_1911]

3:08 I love that so much 😂

[@MarcusEye]

Great reviews Robo, I like these archive wave figures,I have several of them myself. I’m mostly an SHF guy, but I do have like 70 Hasbro figures. Thanks for Sharing bro!.

[@teddybearjedi8865]

Hey Robo, Great Review. All of these Figures are Great Looking Figures and Improvements Over the Original Release figures. But Yoda is My Favorite Star Wars Character, and I am Loving this new Archive Release. Not only because of the Photo-Real Paint Apps, but even Though You couldn't get Him in the Pose they have somehow made Him Able to Hold His Cane with Both Hands Clasped over It like He did in TESB. Something the Original Release Yoda Couldn't do. I passed on the Original 6" Black Series Release all 3 Times the Walgreen's I shop at, got Him back in 2014. I wasn't Collecting Black Series figures at that time, but I was tempted since it was Yoda, but every one I saw looked Terrible in the Box. The Robes were literally falling apart and fraying, and the Paint Apps were Horrible! I Hated the White Paint Hasbro Slathered on for His Hair and Sideburns. There was No Way I could justify paying $20 for Him. Fast Forward to 2016 after I started collecting Black Series figures, and I traded some figures for Him at around $60-$80 in value, but I still wasn't happy with Him, which is why I tried doing a Black Wash on the Head, to try and do something about that Hair. I couldn't believe I did it to Him after giving that much for Him, but after I was done I Loved Him! The hair is still too thick, but He Looked Fantastic compared to the way He looked Originally. My Only Real Complaint after that was him not being able to Hold His Cane with Both Hands, which is why I got 3 Archive Yodas. One to Keep MOC, One to Open, and One I was planning to Give a Bicept Swivel, but Now I don't need to do the Bicept Bicept Swivel. I might make the 3rd one into a Prequel Yoda now. I have a Heascast and might try making Him a Hooded Robe. Here's a few Links to some pics of Him from My Instagram. Check them out and let Me know what You think. instagram.com/p/B0T54gNgxwM/?igshid=1a7cd6w2xmkzg instagram.com/p/Bz62YkOAG--/?igshid=1g1arh6r4p48w instagram.com/p/Bz4EesVA60I/?igshid=dywsoihjn6yl

all we need now is a archive kenobi that first ones head is worse than that yoda ! i just got (an reviewed ) the walgreens exclusive clone commander Kenobi an wow its got a fantastic face maybe a bit to much blusher but so much better . i just passed 1000 subs thank you for been an inspiration to me ....love your work thank you.

Dude. I'm scrolling thru and I didnt see anyone else ask this, and a year plus has passed so I'm sure you'll not see this, but WTF did that Clone Wars version of Maul come from? Did you kitbash that bastard? I'm so enthralled with it. If you did build it I'm def gonna need those ingredients. Pleaseandthankyou. Adore you. Thanks

[@TheFwoosh]

Haha, I had to go back and look, I forget I did that sometimes. It's a Hero Mashers Deluxe Darth Maul crotch and legs cut at the waist, then a Marvel Legends Superior Spider-Man torso and arms. Top it with a Black Series Darth Maul head and a paint job. I need to go back and make the painted details better, I feel like it's kinda plain and off.

[@dukath]

My only beef with the archive waves is I feel they should've released 'em as a redbox release. Gonna toss these new heads in the boxes of the original releases. :D

[@TheFwoosh]

I think carding them like this was their small way of appeasing the people who do buy these for profit, so it won't impact their original investment as much. Maybe.

[@floridamattsreviewsvlogsan3892]

They could’ve gone the extra mile and give the Yoda a prequel head to go with his lightsaber.

Honestly, that og black series Yoda head looks more like the puppet which I find hilarious. The cgi Yoda is definitely better though.

[@CouchCit]

@Robo do you think some dullcote would reduce some of the glossiness of these figures or would that be a bad idea?

Oh, definitely, just be careful not to spray the softgoods. It's not too bad but a little messy.
