I can't help but to notice in many of these reviews of how rough these are being handled and how much of a rush thing are being opened or unsnapped. You have to take your time and use a little finess.
they're toys first, they should be able to withstand being handled like that. If they can't be handled roughly like a child would do them, Then Hasbro needs to learn how to make toys again.
I see what you’re saying, but they should be sturdy, like a kid might play with it. I know this is a haslab and probably mostly adult collectors, but it’s still a toy from a toy company.
@@aaroneaston8899 seriously this is the 3rd review I seen someone break something …because they seem maybe a little overly excited. yes technically these are “toys” but there for the adult collector and it’s a $300 haslab ……my experience with these kinds of things is the more expensive they are the more fragile they are …….either way that sucks and I’m not trying to put salt in the wound
I had the same problem with the side of the canopy. Never going to open that one again. Sorry about your seat belt. I also had trouble opening it. Thankfully, I stopped trying before mine snapped. Turns out, the figures can sit in the seat just fine, sitting on top of the belts.
You are being extremely rough with this , my impression is this isn't supposed to be a children's toy. I cringed when I saw you flip that side window. Jeez
@@SavageKillaBees 🤣 noted, still it should t be that fragile. The plastic hinge is slightly curved witch adds tension to the attachment points. The box is labeled for 14 years old!
@VernRants I collect a ton of other things, including Phicen figures, so the way I handle everything is just way different. You were literally manhandling the seat belt and I cringed at that too. It's all good though, your figures, your toys! I'm just used to being way more gentle and careful with my collectibles, that's all. Just looked like you were in a crazy rush to get everything assembled. 😂 but thanks for the video, I know better how to handle my Dragonfly when it arrives
Hopefully you can get the seatbelt replaced but even still a little glue and it will be grand. I hope that didn’t spoil the experience for you of unboxing and setting it up. It sure does look cool Vern. Still no word on mine being shipped.
@@FullersFigures yes the seat belt was a momentary moment, it still is very cool. Hasbro offered zero for the sentinel knees, so I’m pretty sure a return is the only option
I have never supported a HasLab and i never will. The open pre-order for DragonMan and the 97' Sentinel are proof thet Hasbro could easily make large scale vehicles as big box items without the crowd funding model. Vehicles in G.I.Joe are troop building items just like the figures. They should be readily available and NEVER a one and done item.
@@VernRantsI believe that Hasbro is fully aware that the "Adult collectors" are willing to spend money on products in particular franchises. I am willing to bet my favorite action figure that Hasbro makes more profit from adults buying Transformers, Star Wars, Ghost Busters and Marvel Legends than kids. HasLabs definitely aren't for kids.
Oh blah blah blah blah seriously you are going to go on somebody’s haslab unboxing video and start complaining about the politics of the haslab model and how you don’t like it …..give it a rest for once and let people enjoy themselves
@@demetricsmith471well I’m loving all my has lab and crowdfund projects. Enjoy watching and imagining you have these items😂😂😂😂😂. Don’t support any of these toys. You’re not really missed or acknowledged other than in these comments😂😂😂😂
My husband loves attack Helicopters so with help of a friend who had a 3D printer they’re working on a rooivalk helicopter to match the size of this beautiful Dragonfly! the rooivalk helicopter is South Africa’s premier attack helicopter and my husband got to train on it and has a helicopter license in the USA. My husband was upset with the design for Cobras attack helicopter he always felt Cobra should of used a very aggressive attack helicopter. maybe a Mi-24 Hind or Havoc but something real world.
@ oh wait I see I wrote that wrong. I DO appreciate you not having a meltdown down. I like the way you still could enjoy the awesomeness of this haslab
bro I'm sorry things got stressed and broke on yours. Crazy how we pay this kind of money for these things and they break. Truthful though I'm not surprised because you were manhandling the heck out of it. I hope you also heated up all of your figures. If you didn't I suggest you do or your legs are going to snap on some of your figures.
None of the figures had issues, I had already gone through them. That seat belt was just rough and it probably seems like I man handled the thing, I have to say over the years I probably lost a little finesse in the fingers.
That canopy is a danger. I’m probably going to put a little gorilla or electrical tape on it so it will stay in place. Just open it the old school way.
My seat belt broke too, same one, same spot. That stupid "Oh nooo" chimp meme started playing in my head right after it happened. I get what you mean about the size of it. I knew it was going to be big, but damn!
@@VernRants It is meant to open, but either the peg is too wide or the hole is too tight to let the seatbelt come apart easier. Having adult hands in such a small space to separate the 2 halves of the seatbelt doesn't help either.
Seems to be always something.. Even with He's high and toys. That's why I keep most of mine sealed... But I just got my three in.. Will probably open 1. I havent ibroke down and open one of my hiss tanks yet. Habits are hard to break
@@VernRants lolololo i was like damn, you really have to unbuckle each individual strap ??? then I realized what happened and was like oh damn, that sucks hard lololo feel for you man, i hate so much when that happens, and it really always seems to happen with the special and/or pricey ones reminds of me of being a kid and breaking my favorite toy on christmas or birthday the same day and being so sad lolol hopefully the glue works brother, it is always so annoying though since if hasbro doesn't replace it, me personally would never be able to not see it when i look at it or play with it lol whether fixed or not hopefully you're not as neurotic as me lol
@@cougarswagnum 👊 I do some customs and stuff so I am with imperfections (sometimes). I wish hasbro would do replacement parts but I bet they would make me send it back in without a guarantee of getting another one. It will be okay, the rest of it looks pretty cool, and I al is at put it on display
@@VernRantsthey have replacement parts for if there is a QC issue or something arrives damage but that was user error and I don’t think they will cover that

You should see the paces i put my Galactus through when I got it. I had no problem letting my 3 year old grandson have at it.

Hasbro already put out a message due to a faulty part .
I wish they made the wings and tail removable so we can place it back in the box for storage or just to move.
I think the tail might pop back out with a tug
If Wild Bill comes in regular release maybe they will do the blue/yellow cartoon version.
thats my guess, and crazy legs will definitely have a color change, rip cord is very similar to the halo jumper (just wish they included a parachute)
Nice review! Love the light up instruments in the cockpit. That's a feature I wish Star Wars Haslabs would come with.
@@MattsCollection I think they’ll kissed a few lighting opportunities on this thing but that one is awesome
That's super cool, I am happy I don't collect Gi Joe because that would definitely be in my collection. 💪😎
If I open the a post I can put popcorn in it! Do you collect popcorn buckets?
I had the same problem with the side of the canopy. Never going to open that one again.
Sorry about your seat belt. I also had trouble opening it. Thankfully, I stopped trying before mine snapped. Turns out, the figures can sit in the seat just fine, sitting on top of the belts.
I may opt for not using the belts once that one gets glued back.
I think that canopy hinge isn’t totally straight.

Or fall down running in a spirt store?
@@VernRants💪🤣
Great video thanks for sharing!
@@nerdraged411 thank you for watching!
Sucks about the seatbelt. So sorry. But now we all know what not to do. So you have saved everyone else.
😂👊, seatbelts? who needs seatbelts... oh wait thats roads..

@ my husband loves that helmet and he loves the Ah-64 Apache Longbow and Eurocopter
Oh come on...the Mamba is totally realistic! 😁
LMAO That Ranger in the intro looking like Freddy Mercury… RIP! And that helicopter is huge, where would u put that thing? I like the design tho
it is big, this is going on the top of display shelf but will definitely be coming down to be included in photos a such!
Mine isn’t open yet cause of the size. It’s going on display at the house so I kind of don’t want to put it together until it’s at the house. hmmm.
i don't blame you, i didnt open mine until i kind of cleared my filming table
Sorry about that seatbelt. I don appreciate you not having a full on fanboy meltdown about it. I get tired of seeing that
👊 so did you want the meltdown?
I did have some colorful language that held back a bit..
@ oh wait I see I wrote that wrong. I DO appreciate you not having a meltdown down. I like the way you still could enjoy the awesomeness of this haslab

@ so true of these nubs, I mean fingers
Get a small magnet and glue it on the seat belt.
That’s a good idea
Cool helicopter Vern!
Sorry about your seat belt, I'm sure a little super glue will fix it
I’m gonna dap a bit of the UV glue probably, someone suggest a magnet.
Anyways I see the indentation on there!
Can you take it apart after you put it together?
@@seanpeavideo I haven’t tried yet but I plan to soon
Give me a follow up when u do bro!
@ I will
My front canopy did break, first time I opened it. Waiting to see if Hasbro can replace it.
Seems to be always something.. Even with He's high and toys. That's why I keep most of mine sealed... But I just got my three in.. Will probably open 1. I havent ibroke down and open one of my hiss tanks yet. Habits are hard to break
Oh no! In the same spot?
I’m gonna try glueing the seat belt because I have a feeling they will tell me I have to send the whole thing back.
Wow multiples! They are so well packaged for sure, the box looks fantastic!
damn bro hard to watch when you pulled that seatbelt right apart lol
cool video maang

😮….. 🤣
Rock on man. I got start looking for after market crazy legs.
👊 that one’s a good one!
Would be awesome if it I came with motors to actually fly it remotely.
Or even a rotor that spun slowly under battery power.
@VernRants that what I thought. That much money they could put a small motor that would spin the rotor blades.
@ that would’ve been cool
It looks great, but appears to be fragile as hell
@@lostonwallace1396 overall pretty sturdy, just some fragile bits here and there
@@VernRants That's great to hear!
I could care less about technicality, Bills going in the front
👊 right on! Both seats can pilot the thing!
Its “yee-haw”
Got it!!
Great video
Thanks!
I’m just baffled by how many issues these Haslabs have it’s actually unforgivable I’ll never buy another product from them as long as I live.
Interestingly the HISS tank and my giant figures really didn’t have any issues..
It’s not Haslabs fault of said things breaking. It’s the man childs who are given an instruction manual yet ignore it.
@ where in the instruction manual does it say don’t open the door to the cockpit you shit for brains retard
@ 🤣👊 I did not read the instructions
@@AyeAye-Ron yea I’m curious where in the instructions it says not to open the cockpit you absolute retard
I wish they made the wings and tail removable so we can place it back in the box for storage or just to move.
I think if you tug the tail will pull out.
