Unboxing & Review: Hot Toys Repaint Boba & Throne (Sideshow Exclusive)

[@fruitseller92]

Every Reviewer has their own style and flavor when they deliver their reviews and thoughts. Its like having a cup of their opinion and something to ponder on. My dear friend what you have put on the table is a FULL COURSE MEAL of cinematography, photography and soothing ASMR style narration. BRAVO! Now I'll need to just get my paws on this fantastic deluxe figure

[@BostonCollectors]

That is very kind of you to say, Satya. Wow, thank you so much for this! 🥹🙏 - When we started, it was about appreciating the art we receive and giving it a premium showcase with our own style and approach. I knew a lot of people probably wouldn’t care for how our reviews are shot but mostly about what we thought. It ended up almost being the exact opposite! When it’s noticed, it very much appreciated. Even when it isn’t, that’s ok because those collectors cared enough to press play. 😄🙏

[@RoyalPredator]

WOAH this is one of the most PROFESSIONAL reviews of all time! The way of "story telling" and the style of high-lighting details is just top noch! Thank You for this experience! Hope to get this masterpiece figure soon! :)

[@BostonCollectors]

Thank you so much! This one was a lot of fun to film. Even better since I had more time to film sections like the intro. One of my favorites alongside the Bespin Luke review! 😄 Thank you for watching, and I'm thrilled to hear you enjoyed the production. Enjoy your figure set, because it's incredible!

[@RoyalPredator]

@@BostonCollectors :) You're welcome! Bespin Luke you say? Got to check it then!

[@BoardGameCantina]

Fantastic, detailed breakdown. GORGEOUS setups and photography. 🤯

[@BostonCollectors]

Thank you for the kind words! Happy to hear you enjoyed watching! 😄🙏🏻

[@stevemuzak8526]

I think that is easily the best looking Boba Fett. Mean as hell.

[@carminedepaola8018]

The lighting in your videos is amazing!! Definitely the best one i ever seen...

[@BostonCollectors]

We really appreciate that and it’s so good to hear! We try to make the figures look amazing but also show people what they’re really getting.

[@bobavader1862]

Another beautiful Boba figure from Hot Toys. I have had mine for a couple of weeks or so and i could not be happier.When you have Boba sitting on his throne...what a fantastic display piece.A lot of people have been complaining about the texture on the armor but if one looks at stills from The Mandalorian you can see some slight texturing underneath the repaint but no so much from Boba's appearance in The Book Of Boba Fett, it is smoother.The Special Edition pieces are great and as you said can be used with different figures and the Throne,wow, what a presence it has and again other figures can be sat in the throne, i have tried Jango and Din. Thank you for sharing, gorgeous review of a gorgeous figure.

[@BostonCollectors]

Yes absolutely, they’ve done so well with him! Regardless of the accuracy of the texturing, it represents what one would associate with armor that is repainted over old paint and imperfections and it looks great. 😄 The throne is amazing. It’s somewhat rare to include a “base” that can work with other figures so well (for example Thanos’s rock base). So we’re very happy to have it! Thank you for taking the time out of your day to watch and comment 😊💜

[@bevanboudoin]

badass poses🔥

[@BostonCollectors]

Thank you, thank you! 🙏🏾😄

[@MartytheRed]

Just happen to stumble upon this video in my recommend videos and this is already my favourite figure unboxing channel by far, you can tell a lot of preparation and editting are put into the video, every shot is beautifully taken. Lighting, cinematography, the poses, everything is A+. And yes, I would love to see your next comparison video between the two boba fetts. Keep up the good work!

[@BostonCollectors]

Thank you, we are so glad you found us! 🙏🏾 We strive to make quality videos even if it takes us a little bit longer to get our reviews out. We really want to highlight how detailed these figures are and show the work that goes into them as best we can. And we also look forward to making that Boba comparison soon after we finish remodeling our collection spaces. 😄 Thank you for taking the time to watch our video and sharing your thoughts with us! 🙌🏾🙌🏾

[@someguy8523]

I am way behind on all reviews. I basically watch them when deciding to purchase a fig. Much props to your work. The attention to detail and visuals are amazing. Thanks for the great content 👊

[@BostonCollectors]

No worries, it’s always there to binge watch or when you need it to help in pocking up a figure. 😄 Thank you, thank you! Takes a bit of recording and whatnot, but the work that goes into creating these figures warrant going the extra mile. Why not, right? 🙌🏼 we try our best. Thanks again and appreciate you watching, SomeGuy!

[@ValkyrieMagnus]

Great video. I want a Boba Fett but I want one with a head sculpt. This one looks great but I don’t have space for the throne. I do like the Armor and prefer it to the one with paint damage. I might just settle for the one without the throne but also no head sculpt for space reasons.

[@BostonCollectors]

Yeah, the throne requires an entire shelf of its own due to size. It makes it tough, but it looks incredible when it's all set up. Like you, I really wanted the portrait design for the most part. One of the reasons I didn't like the BOBF: Boba release because it's weird he didn't come with one. Such is Hot Toys.

[@HAWK_Ben_G]

@BostonCollectors - Johnathan, - Once again another great review. Lighting and cinematography... Your Neighbor (almost) LOL 😃 ~ Bren G. / NYC 👍

[@BostonCollectors]

Thank you, Neighbor! Haha 😄 - We try our best, we’re just very happy to hear you all enjoy what we’re doing! Appreciate the love! 🙌🙌

[@NihilusGrey]

Great review! Hands down the best photography and cinematography in 1/6 scale review videos on the net. Bravo! I could be biased as I am a fan based in Roslindale.

[@BostonCollectors]

Thank you, thank you! We appreciate the love, Nihilus! 😄 - Even if it is biased because of the MA love, it's all love regardless, haha! Thanks for watching!

[@Fletch85uk]

Great quality of videos and and an impressive in depth review. You've just earned a new sub! I'm getting the regular version, without the portrait unfortunatley which I'd rather have than the throne. But that's all part of them trying to get you to spend more. Generically, just like Jango, in my opinion I think this release and the previous should have come with a portrait head.

[@BostonCollectors]

Thank you for the kind words, my friend! Glad to hear you enjoyed the content enough to subscribe as well. We’re very appreciative! 😄 It’s a tough spot to be in as a collector, because not a lot of people might care for the throne. Maybe some people just want the portrait for Boba. It’s another reason why I feel like Hot Toys could’ve broke it up for an accessory pack and add a little more oomph to it. I could go for days spitting out ideas, but at the end of the day it sounds like we agree. Anyway, thank you for taking the time to watch our review! 🙏😄

[@Gioven740]

Dang your lighting and presentation are a thing of beauty, well done! I traded my arena boba for this set because space is limited for me and I don’t regret it, this for me is my definitive boba

[@BostonCollectors]

Thank you! 💜 We have to make decisions like that all the time and this set is definitely worth it! 😄 So no Boba from the Book of Boba for you?

[@Gioven740]

@@BostonCollectors yeah I think as an overall package this is the best at least for my needs. I also prefer the overall look with the baggy pants. As for stuff like the jet pack flames I can always find them off eBay! Plan on getting some as well as his staff to further add to the look

[@daniel_sc1024]

Fantastic video, as always. I've never had any luck with putting the flame effect on the gauntlet on any of the figures.

[@TK421Collectibles]

I love this piece, it made me revisit a couple of my other figures to get them all sat down 😅 Emperor’s Throne and Solo Maul’s chair to be specific! Boba’s Throne is next level though. Great review mate 🍻

[@BostonCollectors]

Haha, oh yeah! I don't have Emperor Palpatine sadly, but having Maul and Boba sat across from each other in their chairs sound like a neat idea! Now I can go and watch the other Boba reviews and see what everyone else thought. I've been waiting to watch yours myself! 😄 - Thanks for watching my dude!🍻

[@chuckleseed]

Always amazing! Also great/fair review. That throne looks awesome and you made it look SUPER dope!

[@BostonCollectors]

Thank you, thank you! The Throne is deeeeeeeeeeefinitely the selling point (as well as the portrait), so I tried my best to bring out the details and put it under different types of lighting for collectors who like to control that in their display. Is this something on your radar by chance? 😄

[@CollectingMadness]

Always making these figures look cinematically beautiful really bringing their potential to life, awesome dude!

[@BostonCollectors]

Thank you, man! We try our best 😄🙏

[@JBlack433]

Temuera Morrison's face is essentially Surprising, detailed and with a neutral but imposing expression that penetrates you just by looking at her, a serious face that evokes seriousness and sobriety.

[@PosemasterGeneral]

I love this. Fantastic presentation.

[@BostonCollectors]

We are incredibly honored to have you watch our content! We try our best to bring something unique to the space. Thank you for the kind words 💜🙏🏾

[@nitrorn1496]

Just found your channel. Love the reviews and subbed. I am debating on the throne version or without. Still not sure.

[@andrewleeLP]

What a gorgeous review

[@sambennett531]

Sir, you deserve more subscribers. Beautiful unboxing!!!

[@BostonCollectors]

Hey, Natasha here! 😊 We appreciate your support and look forward to creating more videos for you to enjoy! 💜

[@FIGSCAVE]

Man your reviews are next level!

[@BostonCollectors]

We try our best! Thank you so much for watching! 😄

[@VictoriasCantina]

Great review, BC! The neck peg on mine will not budge. It looks like yours just slides out with ease. I worked on it for two hours last night and only ended up with achy fingers. I wonder if heating it up could help? Either way, super frustrating. I feel like it shouldn't be this hard.

[@BostonCollectors]

Thank you, thank you! The only reason it looks as if mine slide out easily is because I had it on half way for that take. I had another take where it was on all the way, but the force used to remove it threw both hands out of frame for a second. It really is a job to take it out, but not as bad as your sound. I'd suggest heating it up for sure, but you shouldn't have to go through all of that to remove it.

[@MarvelUsReviews]

Dope video! I’m gonna have to pick this up!

[@BostonCollectors]

Thanks so much! We hope you enjoy him as much as we do! 😄

[@markkaszas]

Will you do a review of the 1/4 scale Boba Fett from the Book of Boba Fett

[@BostonCollectors]

I originally had the deluxe preordered, but I had to cancel it due to space. Unfortunately I wont be able to.

[@BenBennyBoBenny]

Another great review. Lighting and cinematography is A+. You could make a My Little Pony review look epic

[@BostonCollectors]

Hahaha, that might be the next challenge if we're bored enough, lol! - Thanks for the compliment and we look forward to creating more content for you all soon. Echo's next on our hit list, so stay tuned! 😄

[@BenBennyBoBenny]

@@BostonCollectors Looking forward to Echo 🙌

[@edwardshawe6395]

I subscribed after the intro...

[@BostonCollectors]

Thank you so much 🥹

[@defeodome2]

I love the set but the eggshell paint keeps this from being incredible in my opinion. It did not look like that in the show a missed opportunity.

[@DrakenGuardz]

I can't seem to remove the neck peg for the headsculpt - I tried heating it with a hair dryer but it seems really tight on there. Any tips? Great video by the way, it convinced me to pick one up for myself!

[@BostonCollectors]

Hey, Draken! Apologies for the delayed response. I'm not sure if you got it to work or not, but it took quite a bit of pressure to get the neck joint out. I didn't heat it up or use a tool though, just good ol' muscle and enough curse words for the swear jar to get me to Disney. While pulling, I did a twisting gesture on the way up and it was free. Glad to hear you were able to pick him though! He's a beautiful piece in the display when he's all settled in. Thanks for watching and hope this helps! 😄

[@DrakenGuardz]

@@BostonCollectors YES! I FINALLY DID IT! Had to use some pliers again with tape on the end and my brother and I yanked that sucker out. Thanks for your response, this is my first Hot Toy so I'm really happy with it. Keep up the great content!

[@k4ramirez221]

Did your boba fett throne deluxe came with the holograms or is that from other figure?

[@BostonCollectors]

Boba's Ship & the Razor Crest holograms mentioned here at 4:35 were included with Boba Fett, yes. 😄

[@danielq_4]

@boston random question over here, but what kind of gloves do you use when handling figures? Thanks!

[@BostonCollectors]

No problem with random questions! We use Safe Skin heavy duty nitrile gloves. You can find them on Amazon. 😄
