Star Wars The Black Series Zuckuss Review

[@shawnhull9988]

Black Series is getting better with every wave. So happy to get another OT character & really looking forward to just about everything that is coming in the future.

[@MikeKaess]

yep! Better every year!

[@Barada73]

I used to be a stickler for the original Kenner names for 4-LOM and Zuckuss, but now I really just don’t care anymore. I’m fine calling him Zuckuss and this figure looks really great.

[@MikeKaess]

I used to be big into making fun of people who used the original Kenner way, but i realized people are gonna call them what they call them. It's not hurting me.

[@MarvelandDC379]

I've always liked Insectoid aliens. He would go so well with 4-LOM.

[@MikeKaess]

me too!

[@ImperialScoundrel]

That figure is so FRICKIN DETAILED!!! everything about it makes be want to hope on ebay and buy it. and the 2 figures together (zuckus and 4-lom) look awesome next to each other. Great pickup Mike, one of the best and great review as well. is it just me or does that figure look like it is the same figure used in star wars robot chicken episode 2. Keep it up and have an awesome wedding. also sorry I didn't get to say good bye yesterday in the stream (it was a great live stream), the game sucked me up I i forgot about the outside world.

[@MikeKaess]

its all good, my friend! thanks for hangin out with me on the stream!

[@theleftisttimemachine8196]

Found the figure among an absolute shelf full of them at my local Disney store! One of my favorites of the year! Hasbro executed this guy perfectly!

[@MikeKaess]

nice! I went back to my local Disney Store today and they only have Zuckuss and Phasma, no Stormtrooper.

[@Quickman012]

The Rogue Squadron pilot you're looking for is Ooryl Qrygg! My second favorite Gand. Zuckuss is my main bug boi.

[@MikeKaess]

Thank you! Yes! One of my favorite characters

[@FugMan4]

Nice review Mike thanks! Getting mine this week

[@MikeKaess]

glad you liked it!

[@michaelaldana3633]

The black series zuckuss figure is now a GameStop exclusive alongside the stormtrooper with blast accessories and both were originally Disney store exclusives in 2018.

[@MikeKaess]

Yeah it’s nice that GameStop picked up the exclusivity

[@ethanglover8244]

i can't wait for the Boba Fett remake!

[@StaySqueezy12]

Same!

[@MikeKaess]

same!

[@MikeKaess]

Although I want a RotJ Fett!

[@lawrencejelsma3937]

@@MikeKaess What is a ROJ Boba Fett? In 3 3/4 inch it was neat in 2003-4 to get that flame base (long antenna) Boba Fett; and then, in 2008 the removable helmet Saga Collection ones! Now in 6 inch which 3 3/4 inch spin-off did you want?

[@nj11productions14]

Probably a top 10 of the year in my opinion

[@centevarable]

Top 5.....

[@MikeKaess]

easily top 10. Probably top 5.

[@rocopandolfo]

My local Disney store didn’t get their Zuckuss shipment. I was able to find Phasma and the stormtrooper, but didn’t get them. I was there for Zuckuss... I was told they should get it Tuesday. Hope to grab one of them and witness with my own eyes all the great things I hear about him. Great review as usual!

[@MikeKaess]

that sucks! mine didn't get the stormtrooper. Still doesn't have it. I kinda want an extra one (can't have too many Stormtroopers).

[@evildrporkchop4628]

Yay you found it.

[@MikeKaess]

i did!

[@hamandjam9322]

No Disney stores around me within a 2 hour drive...but luckily a good friend of mine picked one up.for me at the Disney store in milwaukee...he did say the store was sold out so he had to order it but they sent it to his home and didnt charge him any shipping...awsome fig

[@MikeKaess]

That’s awesome they didn’t charge shipping!

[@CollectingStuffNThings]

Love this figure and I was pleasantly surprise on how easy it was to get my hands on. Love the videos keep up the good work.

[@MikeKaess]

i'm so very happy they're easy to get! and thanks!

[@prophet924]

Found and purchased! I love the Porg (Apple) blast pic. Very funny. Now that all the Empire bounty hunters are made. Let’s continue with the pre OT scum and villainy: Cad Bane and Aurra Sing.

[@MikeKaess]

glad you like the pic! i like to spice up the review a bit with some silly pictures.I definitely want a Cad Bane and Aurra Sing. Especially now than I have a Tobias Beckett.

[@adrianwilliams7790]

Took me awhile, I know, but my Zuckuss turned up today. Thank you Amazon, my bounty hunters are now complete.

[@MikeKaess]

Awesome!

[@Buff88]

Thanks for the review. Picked up this and new Phasma at Disney store.

[@MikeKaess]

two great figures!

[@geelunch]

I just grabbed my Patrol Trooper from a local GameStop, and very much want the new Phasma and the remaining bounty hunters. Zuckuss’ robe has a digi-cam look to it. Like a dark version of the ACU’s I wore in the Army (HOOAH!).

[@MikeKaess]

Nice! My patrol trooper (and the rest of his wave) should be here today!

[@Grail640]

Great review man! I just got zuckus today. what an awesome figure! 2018 for star wars black series has been crazy good! I cant wait to see your top 10 of the year, its going to be a tough list to make. Good luck with that! haha

[@MikeKaess]

Yeah! 2018 is easily the best year Black Series has had!

[@hgbinaus7923]

Great review as always Mike

[@MikeKaess]

thanks!

[@jameslohr4943]

I don't keep the BS boxes but it's kinda cool that you were able to get one with the TRU sticker on it.

[@MikeKaess]

yeah, i was pretty excited to get a TRU version.

[@wfthrock]

Mike, I’m looking forward to one day completing my original Bounty Hunters Collection. And Zuckuss will go a long way toward helping me do that. I have the “orange-stripe” original Boba Fett. And I have 4-LOM. I have Dengar in order now with the new Wave that went up recently online at all the major sites like BBTS and Dorkside. That will be 8, count-em 8!, new figures and Dengar is one. I never got IG-88. But I’m looking forward to Zuckass. I don’t have a Disney Store anywhere near my home at all, so I’ll order him online at Disneyshop. Great review by the way. - William

[@MikeKaess]

i hope you got em! you gotta complete that bounty hunter collection!

[@gentugo]

I just checked Disney store and It is in stock. I am buying him Friday.

[@MikeKaess]

i think you'll like it!

[@Sammy1970]

New to the channel and I really enjoyed the review and your delivery of said review! Still trying to get my hands on this fig for my collection here in the UK😕

[@MikeKaess]

awesome! thanks! apparently the UK has Disney Stores and they're stocking this figure.

[@Sammy1970]

@@MikeKaessThanks, I checked a couple of days ago and there wasn't any! I'll check again later after work.

[@diegomercado8744]

Another BANGER Mike!!!

[@MikeKaess]

YEAH BOOII

[@order66103]

Ordered from their website! Should arrive tomorrow or Tuesday.

[@MikeKaess]

hope you like them!

[@DrScotty1965]

That is really an awesome figure.

[@MikeKaess]

it really is!

[@AndrewJames-fu6oq]

Cant wait for Dengar!

[@MikeKaess]

same! mine should be here Friday!

[@ozlozano9470]

I want a Padmé Amidala Geonosis all in white 6’ figure to go with Anakin.

[@MikeKaess]

you're in luck! they announced one two weeks ago!

[@centevarable]

Great review...Just ordered him today at the Disney website.I don't unbox them so the clothes not coming off doesn't bother me.

[@MikeKaess]

fair enough!

[@ryecmd]

I ordered zuckuss on shopdisney.com I gotta have my bounty hunters originally was going to pass as I thought bossk and boba fett would never make it to my shelves. I still beat myself over passing on boba fett years ago when I didn’t collect action figures.

[@MikeKaess]

yeah im super happy they're doing the archive line.

[@evoFTMFW]

Ordered two off of disney store's website a few days ago, just waiting on them to arrive in the mail. Definitely not as difficult to find as I was thinking it might be.

[@MikeKaess]

i'm very glad they're not hard to find!

[@rickytoddbotelho9555]

A must have.

[@MikeKaess]

for sure!

[@PREDALIENT]

Great review , i love it !

[@MikeKaess]

thanks!

[@leewilkinson3099]

Great review

[@MikeKaess]

Thanks!

[@david94134]

Nice review, I bought the figure from my local Disney Store. I’m so glad that there were plenty for everyone to enjoy. My bounty collection is complete. I hope Hasbro make more 6 inches classic Star Wars figures for Jaba Palace next. Do another top 10 wanted list Mike.

[@MikeKaess]

yeah its nice seeing so many on the shelves. I hope everyone that wants one can easily get one. I'll work on that list for sure!

[@SimpleTricksNonsense]

Zuckuss has 2 canisters connected to his head in the movie but in nearly every toy they only put 1 on.

[@MikeKaess]

thats actually a good point that i did not know.

[@bastisbuntewelt]

Your shirt ist very great

[@MikeKaess]

thanks!

[@toytherapy404]

I need to find a way to get this in my collection being it is a US exclusive

[@MikeKaess]

yeah they need to bring these to the UK for sure.

[@leonardcisneroz1868]

Found him at Disney store in Northridge, but he cost so much, 24.99

[@MikeKaess]

yeah unfortunately since he's a Disney Store exclusive thats just the normal price for him. it sucks.

[@joep84]

Be on Galaxy of toys pod again!

[@MikeKaess]

anytime!

[@blankwavemessiah]

cheers dude! I had my gf and cousin go on a sting operation when I was working midnights! got all 3!!!! trooper had high hopes, but he somehow seemed even MORE fragile and flimsy than the original releases.... The best pieces were the blaster attachment and the death star cardboard cut-out. MUCH better if you wanna go through the trouble to put a light under the blast accessories. Zuckuss is amazing for fandom and completion efforts. But I think the Phasma actually surprised me and took my top spot for all three. I would love to see how my opinions would change without the face printing and advanced details that hasbro is stepping up towards. love it, homie.

[@MikeKaess]

glad you snagged them!!

[@MatthewsNerdyNation]

Another awesome review! Can't wait for the next one!

[@MikeKaess]

thanks!

[@rogeliosanchez8883]

My friend the Dengar figure is so good, the accessories, the detail and the mold is so nice and smooth that makes me so happy (I want to see your review about Dengar) :)

[@MikeKaess]

i got an email from the place I ordered the Dengar wave from. I should have him on Friday!

[@mariofett13]

Nice!!!!!!!!!!!! I need it !!!!!!!!!!!!

[@MikeKaess]

he's so good!

[@R8ERN8TION52]

I want to get him but I don’t because then I’ll have to get the other bounty hunters. Bosk, 4-lom, etc but I’m probably still gonna buy it

[@AndrewJames-fu6oq]

R8ERN8TION52 then buy the Archive Wave.

[@MikeKaess]

yeah the archive line is re-releasing Fett, IG-88, and Bossk for this very reason. Should be easy to find them soon.

[@TheTrognation]

We've reached a point where the action figures look better than the actual costumes. It's hard to think that just a year ago we were dealing with the bloated ANH Leia face.

[@MikeKaess]

thats so true!

[@acarden3]

“That’s not Zuckuss that’s 4-Lom!”

[@MikeKaess]

All too easy

[@NewtonDKC]

Nice review, though I wonder why they went with such a dark robe when it looks far lighter in the movie and the pics of him, a sort of khaki light beige versus the dark brown of the figure? I want all of the Bounty Hunters so bad, an obvious throwback to my childhood I guess, and very glad Hasbro had the sense to rerelease the other hunters again for those of us who missed them early on. Tho really hope Figuarts does an IG-88 in proper scale since Hasbro seems to makee certain figures underscaale (R2, IG88, C3PO, etc )..

[@MikeKaess]

i didn't notice how underscored IG-88 was until i saw a picture of him when i was doing this review. it's bizarre!

[@sergiopalmas8853]

I need Zuckuss.

[@MikeKaess]

I hope you find him.

[@benjaminlopez392]

I’m pretty sure he has butterfly joints as well

[@AndrewJames-fu6oq]

Benjamin Lopez nah. Its just a ball socket.

[@MikeKaess]

yeah i checked. There hasn't been a black series figure yet with a butterfly joint, but mine definitely doesn't have one.

[@benjaminlopez392]

Mike Kaess The Imperial Patrol Trooper and Rebel Fleet Trooper have butterfly joints

[@LordTano66]

I got mine ... and it’s insane, best BS for 2018

[@MikeKaess]

its definitely up there for sure!

[@tippingtophat4012]

I just got All three of these Disney store exclusives. Also I really hope regular black series figures are released there so I can finally get the rebel fleet trooper

[@theguyonthecouch42024]

Your shirt is funny!!😁

[@MikeKaess]

thanks! one of my faves in my collection!

[@jamesedey7228]

Is it in Disney stores in UK

[@MikeKaess]

awesome! good to know!

[@jamesedey7228]

No I asked is it ?

Congrats on getting married man!

[@MikeKaess]

thank you!

[@StaySqueezy12]

Looks good but I'm probably not gonna ever pick this up. Never really cared about the character.

[@MikeKaess]

i can understand that!

[@Villafarrell]

Aren't u a little short for a bounty hunter?

[@MikeKaess]

el oh el!

[@bryc3101]

This episode was very sexual for some reason

[@MikeKaess]

i.. uh... i mean it's not NOT sexual.
