I just love the use of his Clone Wars appearance, looks so clean and nice on him.
Agreed!
his s7 appearence also looks good on him
@@marvelous5260S7 is episode 3 revenge of the sith appearance. Scenes actually overlap at the same time.
Re-using the headsculpt is a good idea because the look of determination/anger always helps figures with the Hayden likeness. His likeness is pretty hard to nail. So having the furrowed brows is the best way to capture his vibe and presence.
Agreed!
I'm still undecided, but part of me wants him for the 2003 CW season 2 look.Thats were the armor and cape come from. He wears his AOTC look until he gets Knighted, then has the long hair and starts to wear the armor.
Fair enough!
Anyone else come back after ep 5 and just appreciate how good they did
Noice!
Yeah
as someone with like a million hours in the game, i cant believe that i didnt realize the secondary armor is the shape from battlefront. it definitely also works as vader foreshadowing, but it’s cool to know that they got the specific reference from the game. great catch.
Legit! It definitely is!
It’s more than just a reference
Old video, but I think the Clone Wars costume design for both Obi-Wan and Anakin is some of the best of all time. Like they write such a story with their costumes. Anakin foreshadowing Vader’s look and having Obi-Wan with a military general persona, adds to the mythic of these two when you watch Episode IV
I love the costumes!
Man this figure is just gorgeous… paint apps on the STAP are simply perfection.
Couldn't agree more!

The live action clone wars armour from the Ahsoka series looks a lot like this figure!!
Legit!
I’m actually pretty sure that the “battlefront” style armour is actually from the animation. I have no idea where the bluer looking armour is meant to be from. If you look at pictures of the animation that’s what I think.
All in all, awesome review, and I can’t wait to get mine!!
Definitely looks like season 1 Anakin armor to me
The "battlefront" style armour is for sure the version thats based off the animation as the shoulders flare out a bit. I think the bluer one is an extra that's supposed to be a call back to darth vader once the cape is attached.
None the less, great extensive review!
The flared shoulders are the animated ones, the other one is the battlefront 2 ones. Both look so awesome!!
@@daniellee-poy3371 ?
@Darth Vader strange? And it was more gray than black
Dang I gotta admit, the LEDs in the STAP turbines almost FOMO'ed me.
His swap out armor choices are my favorite feature of the figure itself.
Haha they're a very nice touch aren't they!
Fantastic figure review Justin! I love what they were able to accomplish and translate here. I really hope we see a clone wars flashback in the kenobi series with Anakin wearing this costume
I hope so too!
If anyone is having trouble with the right hand gauntlet on their figure ive found a fix:
If you remove the gauntlet, smooth out the forearm fabric and put a fold in it, it fills more space once you put the gaunt back on (dont slide it on wrap it around his forearm to put it on) then when you clip it together it should lock together and have no issues of unclipping again because the fabric is pressing up against it on the inside. Worked a treat with mine and looks seamless 👍
Even when off the arm entirely mine doesn’t clip together
@@JustinsCollection Dang! What a shame, must just be moulded/ pressed in a slightly different tolerance. To be honest, im contemplating a little bit of e3000 in that inside seam of the clip just to hold it together, but can be removed later. I received clone wars maul today and his gaunt is marginally worse. They should just include 2 gaunts tbh
Your laundry chime going off at 17:28 made me look arpund the office in confusion before i realised it was from ur vid lol. Great review as always.
Haha damn I wish I caught that!
Awesome review as usual. I haven’t bought a figure yet without checking out your review on it. I just grabbed this amazing clone wars Anakin after watching this video. Thanks for the great content Justin!
Noice!
I’m thinking about picking up this figure and I was so excited when he was announced! He looks really good and he will go great with my Captain Rex!
He is dope!
22:00 There was no overlap with Rex’s phase II armor and Anakin’s earlier seasons look, but rather the other way around! The Jedi seemed to get their new wardrobe in before the clones. Damn space shipping! Lol
Oh interesting!
Love the bloopers!!! The paint apps on the STAP are sweet
They are!
What a fantastic set, glad that went with the CIS paint scheme for the stap.
Dope!
Looks fantastic! I wish I could ride that thing to school…. Well, when I used to go to school. Thanks Justin! From KC to JC have a good one my friend!
Haha would be an interesting ride! Thanks for watching KC!
Coming from the future and this anakin clone wars figure is even more of a must own
Yes he is!
I bit the bullet and bought Anakin! He should be here this coming Friday the 17th of June. Very excited. :)
Dope!
I love you videos mate and sneak peeks I look forward to them. Far batter then other people's reviews. Put I always fast forward through them so I can see the poses people put them in to give me some ideas.
Thank you so much!
he sure is a great figure its nice they put lights in him too ,that base was a nice touch too
Legit!
Definitely go with the Battle Driod! He looks sweet. You could pose the Geonosis Battle Driod with 3PO's head attached. Lol That would be unique.
Legit!
First Hot Toy that I ever pre-ordered! Cannot wait!
Dope!
I cannot wait for this guy. I’ve had him ordered for almost two years now
Yeah!
Not huge fan of this particular figure, but the STAP with the battle droid looks awesome.
The color of the fabric was a nice touch. I could easily see it standing out from the crowd in a clone wars HT Star Wars collection.
It so does!
3:23 it's the other way around. The one with the shoulder flare and articulation is based on the animation version. The one with flat rigid armor is the one based on Battlefront. A key detail you can focus on to tell the difference is the curved vs flat shoulders, among other smaller details. Here's a comparison: i.imgur.com/4539E1d.jpg
Thanks for the info I meant the 2003 2d Animation however
@@JustinsCollection The same features largely apply to the 2003 animated version as the 2008 3D version, as the 2D Tartakovsky designs directly inspired the 2008 early 3D designs: i.imgur.com/rdaayH7.jpg The flared shoulders, the smooth curves, the wider center chest area, the larger shoulder pauldrons. Either way, the one with the curved up shoulders is the "clone wars" version, both 2d and 3d. Of course there's some variation due to the flexible nature of 2d animation, so the 3D series introduced the articulation to allow the same range of movement: i.imgur.com/d4doFAt.jpg The 2003 series is indeed where the cape here comes from though.
@@JustinsCollection you are right. The Battlefront model was probably based in the 2003 Anakin design
@@Lu1zF3l1pe weird
@@JustinsCollection he doesn’t wear that outfit in that show
Had him PO'd for a long time. Still I was on the fence recently mostly due to my concerns regarding face sculpt and I had doubts about animated torso combined with Hayden's likeness. But in your review he looks so good I think I will hit the confirmation button. :)
Fair enough!
He rode a stap that looked like this in both the clone wars movie and the citadel arc 👍
Nice! It’s been a very long time since I watched Clone Wars
ahsoka episode 5
Glad I got him lol he’s gonna sell out now
Yes!
Yes men
Looks to be a pretty great figure. I’m excited to get mine in hand!
Hope you enjoy it!
Bro this is way too awesome! I the love Clone Wars Anakin
Thank you!
I wonder if the clone backpack will fit on anakin because the one time I can remember him riding the stapp was during the 2008 clone wars movie and he wears the backpack with jabbas son Rotta
It should!
This figure is amazing. Im not sure if people like this figure that much but i love it and its something different like the appereance. But i like it overall cuz its unique to my collection
I love it too!
Picked him up for 220 I couldn’t resist lol, he arrives today! Very excited
Nice!
I love the S.T.A.P. especially the tan Phantom Menace one.
Nice!
I'm so close to having two of my grails, this and DX19! I can't wait for them to ship
Dope!
Broooooooooooooo. This is phenomenal
Thanks!
Great review! I'm collecting my first Hot Toys ever which is Clone Wars Anakin and I am super excited, but I decided to get the regular version without the STAP since I wouldn't have enough room to display it.
Totally fair!
Yeah man this is my 1st Hot Toy and I ended up doing the same with getting the regular release.
also me favourite anakin skywalker too ! awesome review bros !
Thank you!
The episode 3 anakin was my first figure about 3 years ago and I said that was gonna be my only hot toys lol I didn’t know what I’d get myself into.
Haha damn!
I am really liking it and glad I ordered it with the STAP.
Nice!
thank you for making this 🙏🏽
No probs!
The STAP looks amazing. I ended up going for Anakin on his own though due to the size of the STAP, it would have taken up too much space for me and I'm saving £100 as well
Totally fair!
Awesome review! Awesome figure!
Thank you!
Your reviews are amazing 👍👍
Thank you!
Recently rewatched the CW recently and he indeed used the STAP with this color but not with his "General Skywalker" armor.
movie clone wars 2007
Dope!
justin i whatch all of your videos becuse your videos are best in unbox or review
Thank you!
I love the cape!
Me too!
The "animated" chest piece definitely makes his neck look too short in my opinion, but the more realistic "battlefront" version looks pretty great. I also like the new hair style.
Fair enough!
Always enjoy your insightful reviews Justin.
Btw where did you order your rotating electric display stand from? I’ve looked for a seller in Aus but couldn’t really find one. Thanks!
I got it from ebay, just a random no brand one
@@JustinsCollection Is yours powered by a usb cable or do you put batteries in it?
Does anyone have any tips on the best way to attach the lightsaber arm without breaking anything? For me, the normal arm was difficult to get out of the mount and the lightsaber arm was just as difficult to get in and is now quite loose and wobbly.
Following the instructions is the best advice
He had a pretty similar cape in the 2003 Clone Wars, I believe it's based on that
Yep!
Geez this figure is pulling me more and more.
I already have a Ep 3 Anakin but this one is looking neat too.
Hmm. 🤔
You need it haha
I believe on a featurette or the commentary on the Clone Wars movie they mentioned that they designed Anakin's outfit foreshadowing Darth Vader's outfit
Nice!
YES FINALLY…i had been waiting for this video in AGES nice video tho now this makes me want all the 501st troopers including named ones like kix, arc trooper fives, tup, dogma, hardcase (rip hardcase) and the others who i forgor their names ;-; also ima put th damn poncho on rex
Nice!
you got it the other way around, the bluish armor is based on battlefront while the segmented i¡one with the articulation is from the animated series
I’ve been told
He looks incredible. I wish I didn't have to cancel mine. With the head sculpt it looks like the hair is shorter but the face is my favorite Anakin the Revenge of the Sith one. Hopefully I can get him before he sells outs. Jango can't be to far behind him.
Ah damn!
I think they are making the lightsabers lighter because they want them to glow brighter. I honestly wish they would switch to colored plastics. Like a red lightsaber made out of red plasticl ike a hasbro figure. I think it would look more realistic in the daylight.
Could be!
With the cape makes the outfit such a perfect foreshadowing of Vader
Agreed
Very tempted to get him now as he's as relevant now as he's gonna get 😀 I could get either him or repaint Boba and it's really tough for me to decide.
Fair!
Badass!!!
Thank you!
The secondary chest armor and cape are from his 2003 2D animated "Clone Wars" appearance.
That's what I thought
This is so cool
Thank you!
I plan on putting the new hot toys battle droid on the stap when that hopefully comes out next year.
Dope!
For phase 2 anakin I don't think they would have to release a hole new figure they would just need to do an accessory pack with a glove and a headsculpt simular to the phase 1 one but with slitley longer hair for the rots anakin figure
Fair enough!
Thanks again for an great review. Am I going to pick this one up? I’m still thinking about it. I want Obi-Wan to be released as well. I feel they should be together. That is one reason I haven’t pre-ordered this one. I rather they re-issue Episode 3 Anakin! I’m hoping Sideshow’s Clone Wars Version are worth it because they look true to animation versions but sideshow 1/6 scale figures are weak.
I hope they make him!
I think you have the Bsttlefront and animated armors mixed up. The flexible one that looks more scuffed up is actually the animated look and the other armor piece is pulled straight from Battlefront
Maybe
I like how this armor is a precursor to Vader's armor.
Legit!
Wow what detail, I am officially sold. This will be my first hot toys figure. Any idea how long it will take to ship from wonderland toys?
Dope! Depends which batch you choose!
Watch these knowing I will never be able to adore one
Anyone else feel that way
Damn!
By chance do you have any recommendations for the gauntlet issue? I don’t know if I should glue it together or not
No fix I know of yet
Can you put the cape/chest plate on the episode 3 anakin? I’m guessing no given what you said about the heads. Great review!
No, there is no Velcro for it to attach onto
14:56 this is the clone wars style not the battlefront ll style.
The alterantive one is the battlefront ll one. You can tell by the extra armor plates.
Okie dokie
3:30 That is actually more of the show design. The other one is actually the Battlefront 2 design. You can tell by how many divisions there are.
Nice
Does anyone know if the head sculp has been improved since?
Since what?
Been a fan of Star Wars my entire life - not once did I put two-and-two together that his Clone Wars chest armor foreshadows his Darth Vader chest armor. 🤯😂 Great review!
Legit it just clicked for me haha
You are right. Anikan was in the Clone Wars look with phase 2 Captain Rex. Specially at Umbara.
Yah!
Great review! Thank you so much for doing this. Question, would you say that the 2nd chest plate is more accurate to the live action Clone Wars Anakin from the Ahsoka TV-Show? 18:43
Yes I think so!
My arm for the lightsaber light up effect, can’t even use it :/, the elbow won’t pop out to switch it on mine, it’s too tight in there, any tips to remove?
Damn!
Anyone know how to remove the arm to install the light up hilt arm? Having a hard time and haven’t seen anyone with a solution. I get you’re supposed to pull it out but it’s not as easy as it sounds
The instructions show that
I cant seem to take off the left arm to replace it with the led one, how do i do this?
Check the instructions on that one!
Nice!
Thanks!
love your content man! this is a beautiful figure.
Thanks a ton!
I totally agree about the head Sculpt. The Revenge of the Sith Anakin is spot-on I'd have to say that head sculpt the Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi all-perfect. They look exactly like the actors. We got some different hair so that's something I guess but it doesn't bother me in the least bit that they use the same Face sculpt. Unlike the Clone Wars a crimson Dawn Darth Maul which are exactly the same I spent a lot of time looking over both of them and comparing and the only thing different is the red on the Crimson Dawn Maul is brighter. I ended up switching the heads to my figures so now my Crimson Dawn head is on my Clone Wars Darth Maul. And I think it fits so much better because of the color on the body the Clone Wars Maul is brighter than the head sculpt he came with and with the Crimson Dawn one the body paint is darker so it fits his body paint much better. In my opinion.
Love those sculpts!
Hey Justin! Love your videos, do we think hot toys will ever re-release any of the revenge of the sith figures because they just released some of the attack of the clone figures?
I doubt it unfortunately
I missed out on the 3rd episode anakin which was my favorite ver. So im hesitant on whether i should get him... I hope HT release a DX ver of ROTS Anakin with a new sculpt：(
I doubt it
How do you switch out the original arm for the light up one? I can’t figure it iut
Check the instructions!
Hey Justin I keep my figures mint in the box but anakin has batteries in his arm should I remove them so they don't leak later on?
I believe the batteries aren’t in the arm in the box
@@JustinsCollection ha damn I must be blind then thanks man
Idk what episode or season but it’s one of the earlier seasons where him and obiwan are chasing asaj ventress and they ride those bc the big spider droid fell off the top of the building ( this doesn’t make sense but watch the episode it tells it better)
Nice!
I was just watching this video thinking about the fact u didn’t think he rode that scooter but if u look at the clone wars s3 eps 19 about 18 min and 45 seconds in the episode u do really see him riding it
Lol
Is there any way to put the clone wars sculpt on ep3 body ? Like an adapter?
Possibly
Just decided to get mine along with Ahsoka for the sideshow rewind sale. It got me wondering when are we going to get the Obi Wan Kenobi Clone wars figure??? My OCD can't take it
No idea I need him!
I think the reason i’ve never been too big a fan of his clone wars appearance is because the dark maroon part underneath looks like a dress
Oh
I missed out on the Revenge of the Sith mullet figure. It’s selling on EBay around $600. I’m very much interested.
Grab this one!
In the clone wars movie, Anakin knocks a droid off a STAP and uses it to get to the top of the fortress above and in an episode, he does the same thing in order to escappe from Ventress. While I do understand that people like TCW, I would prefer that they made a STAP in the ROTS color palate in order to make it accurate to the prequel trilogy however.
Nice!
Rex has never worn the phase 2 armour with phase 1 anakin but the other way around yes
Oh ok!
cool!
Thanks!
cant believe anakin riding that thing without his knees being blasted away😂
LOL
