Since Insaw Return of the Jedi I loved the Royal Guards. The vinrant red was a big chanhe from Imperial black, white or grey. These guys look like a more practical version.
The helmet looks like a cross between a Senate Guard and an Imperial Royal Guard, which I'm perfectly fine with because I personally believe that the first batch of Praetorian Guards were former Royal Guards.
I got two of these guys posed up, I have Return of the jedi vader coming. These two guys will be flanking him after he arrives. Always felt if these guys were like the level below the official Red guard in the empire, so it felt like a high moff or vader could get a few. Though admittedly their life expectancy with Vader would probably be short. XP
@@JustinsCollection I hope ya get a 2nd one, though i know given your channel and the shear volume you have to deal with figure wise that would make things difficult. xP
I plan on seeing if I can take the heads and robe off my Royal Guards and swap the heads with the Praetorian one and throw the rob on them to make them Legends accurate. In the comics and lore Royal Guards wore very similar armor under their robes. Plus they carried a heavy blaster or pistol and when they went into combat they used double sided vibro blade swords. Look up the story how they sent one Elite Royal Guard down to squash a faction of the Empire that tried to rebel against the Empire, the single Guard massacred everyone on his own.
Great review Justin. At first, i thought the red looked like a matte flat red instead of a shiny gloss, but it was the rotating angle that got me. I picked one up as well, hopefully arriving in the next few days !
@JustinsCollection by the way I think the strings on the hip armour are supposed to be purely for dynamic poses so the plates can move out of the legs' way. You tucking them up into the other armour is I think what you are meant to do for neutral poses
Such a beautiful figure. The best design to emerge from the Disney stuff. I'm going to buy this. Such an awesome toy. It's so much better than the odd armor of the guards in 'The Last Jedi'.
Wow!!! Such a Intimidating and Magnificent Looking, New Imperial Praetorian Figure by Hot Toys. And Weapons Looked Freaking Fantastic as well. Very Informative and Entertaining. Excellent Toy Reviewing on Video as always! 👽 🛸 🌟
Justin I think they should hire you at hot toys, because we know for damn sure you wouldn’t use pleather or rubber or anything bad. You would use something that will look good now and will look good in the future and won’t require any maintenance. We know you would think about the customer and not the money.
A stock market crash in the toy industry is coming soon. Unprofitable toys, character-themed products, and overpriced items are piling up as demand dwindles. With fewer kids interested in these traditional toys, the industry faces a significant downturn. Investors should be prepared for a sharp decline as the market adjusts to these challenging conditions.

Yeah they do!
Fun fact: the torso armour pieces for the Praetorian are exactly the same design as the First Order Stormtrooper's.
shin armor and boots too..
Dope

I actually got two of these. They are awesome figures and I don’t have problems with the hands
Awesome!
Great review! I don't watch the Mandalorian but the costume design is terrific. That's a cool figure
So good!
Hello, Justin. Excellent review, as ususal. I am going to try to get mine in BBTS. Warm hugs from Mexico City.
Nice! Thanks for watching!
I’m surprised he didn’t mention that the chest plate was the FO stormtrooper design.
I didn't notice my dumb ass
Oh I’m excited for this one, one of my favorite character designs and have been looking at this line. Thank you!
Hope you enjoy it!

Oh that would be dope!
What are your thoughts on the Feral Predator? I’m considering getting it I really liked Prey.
Can’t wait to get it
Wow! Hot toys are so cool but sadly because they are they are so expensive too😭
Ah damn

Oh! Glad I could show it!
I've been looking forward to this.
He looks fantastic. I feel like I'd have to buy 2 though. At least
He does!

Ah damn
I know not totally correct, but I have two of these fighting Rey and Kylo in a Last Jedi scene, looks sick, buy a second one Justin!
Oh sick!
On a completely unrelated note I would love three zero to make a DLX The Last Knight Drift
Agreed!

Maybe one day! Or I'll make my own!
Actually, I feel the production cost is very low for this figure. Every parts, details and color is very simple, easy to produce.
It’s not necessarily about easiness. Parts, complex in detail or not are still expensive to make due to the steel molds
Im watching X-men 97 and they just killed gambit 😭
just a fake death...
Damn
The weapons in this guys were nice and honestly I love the all red in this guy , but some part of me wanted a little bit of gradients on it
Fair
Early squad
Yo!

Yo!
Floating helmet no good horrible gap.
Great scene in Mando but TLJ version looks better.
Ok
