I don't usually mind them skimping over tiny details but considering the entire reason why this is a DELUXE is because of extra paint, they really have no excuse to be this cheap this time. I still have it on preorder but I'm really considering whether the deluxe price point is really worth it.
It's not, but they know these characters sell. I won't cancel it either
Star Wars team at Hasbro just doesn’t care anymore about us. They believe they can do the bare minimum and they know fans will eat it up. They didn’t learn their lesson with the Rancor.
It's not a deluxe price, it's them sneaking in their new base price.
At this point I feel like "deluxe" just means something that's not a repaint of an old figure.
Just got one and no reason for it to be deluxe it's severely lacking on paint apps. Canceled my second order it's not worth it do not overpay for this figure from secondary sellers.
Since Robo mentioned it in here, I have to say it seems like it's been a good long bit since we saw a play day video. I think that not only are we due for one, but I think Robo is due for one, too!
true payday is the best day!
I can't even remember how long ago the last play day was. I wonder if Robo just doesn't have time or if he doesn't have enough stuff to do a video with?
@@fennerarmstrong3346 i don't think it's been more than a few months
For a figure that's apparently deluxe because of paint apps, he sure is lacking a lot of paint apps.
"Deluxe" for hasbro Black series means accesories splayed out in a larger box. I like Cobb Vanth, but he is not deluxe material (unless they could have given him removable armor, like intended, no warm water needd)
What sucks for me especially is that I dont even care for the accesories. Im not going to put on the jetpack or even the helmet. I just want the base figure and his guns.
@@ComicCrossing I am sure Hasbro will release a standard Sherif Cob Vanth. Just pray that it has a proper shirt sculpted in the upper torso and not just a straight reuse of the one used in this "deluxe".
@@alejandrogonzalez7129 yeah maybe I should just cancel it. Though the Chestplate is cool. Idk lol.
@@ComicCrossing I haven't bought a black series figure in over a year. Just don't see the worth anymore.
The original sculpt on this is solid as is the case with most Black Series, but really it's the paint that seems to be the letdown here. I do hope they release a Cobb Vanth without the armor because I really need a Timothy Olyphant action figure without having to pay deluxe price.
It's deluxe because it's Boba related, even though the ROTJ Boba deluxe was absolutely worth it.
Im afraid all boba fetts will be “deluxe” now by default
Love this guy
I think the sculpt is great, and if this was a $20-$25 figure I would be super happy, I've got no problem doing some washes and custom work on my figures. But as a deluxe release, I feel like it should come with more. Still gonna get him though.
He should have come with some jawas
@@robd1329 and more scratches
Can’t wait for that play day to see that Cad Bane!
The Deluxe price makes the lack of paint more noticeable...
Ooh. I can’t wait to get my hands on that Timothy Olyfett
This would be perfect for customization. Some dirt and touched up details will make it an A+ figure.
Cobb Vanth is one of my absolute new favorite characters, I need to get this figure no matter the price point! This is honestly the only time I’ll make that exception with the whole “deluxe” debacle. Cobb Vanth is just to cool of a character.
Deluxe because they want to charge more for everything. I'm also cutting back but I am also not gonna sweat it if I never see this figure in stores.
I think "deluxe" now means that there's "added play-value" in having to paint the figure yourself...
The figure I'm really waiting for is Boba Fett in his 1st armored appearance in Episode 6 of Mando Season 2.
When he finds the rusty armor in the Razor Crest and massacres an entire platoon of Stormtroopers on Tython.
But since that one will take a full year to come out, I'm just gonna buy a second Black Series ROTJ Boba Fett and customize it into looking like that version of the character.
Yeah, definitely not enough paint apps to “Justify” the deluxe price…pun intended
Great, after seeing this figure i am hoping Hasbro can make a single release of Cobb without Boba's armor, i mean it looks nice but i can't affors deluxe figures now sooo yeah there's that.
Hopefully, especially since it would just be a few new parts here and there.
It’s bad enough they’re passing this off as a deluxe release, but they couldn’t even bother giving it a deluxe paint job? Classic Black series
the head from the delux Boba Fett is actually sculpted under the helmet. i heated mine in hot water and gently pried it off w a flathead and painted it. looks great.
If you look at pictures of his pistol, there's a little metal ring on the bottom of the grip, so i think thats what the weird hook on his belt is for.
They said it was “deluxe” because of the amount of paint apps… but there is actually quite a lot of paint missing…
“Deluxe” but so much of details left unpainted :( keep it up Hasbro
I think that hook is where he hung the remote detonator... I could be wrong and I'm too lazy to check. It could have been a scrapped accessory.
Love the intro Robo.
As it's supposedly deluxe why not give him some jet pack booster jets and the flame thrower effect from deluxe Boba and Hell how about a flight stand. That would be deluxe.
As is if it was standard price I don't mind adding some paint, washes and dry brushing.
I want this figure so bad!
Remember when "Deluxe" in the Star Wars Black Series used to be for larger characters (like Grievious and possibly accessories that make sense like Palpatine's Throne)? Well, now it's just a price point with added accessories. Just like they did with Transformers with their size class.
Great video I could see that belt being used for a black series Quinlan Vos
For the deluxe price point we’re getting awfully close to Neca prices which I don’t mind paying because Neca always has great sculpts and paint apps. This figure would be worth the $40-$50 Canadian it is if he had the quality paint apps on the rest of him that is has on the armour. Heck even the armour could use some more detailing.
Hasbro is getting way to expensive for the amount of corners they’re cutting on paint apps and reused sculpts. Not to mention the fact that they’re so hard to get a hold of they end up going for insane amounts on the after market. Something’s gotta change at hasbro because I’m kinda done with them for the time being when it comes to buying figures at full retail price.
What a figure this would have been if Hasbro hadn’t skimped on the paint operations
Can't wait to get this figure!
You make the best review👍
I finally got mine it and i love it! The bandana thing is an easy fix though, just flip it around, it looks better that way too in my opinion
Can't wait to get mine, eta July for me though.
I have him pre-ordered over at BBTS and can't wait to get him in, though it has him with a june release. I also picked up these silver permanent markers that work great for all those snaps and buckles that seem to never get painted.
I loved that intro
Not the biggest fan of the deluxe price. I'm definitely gonna grab him on sale and do some paint touch ups though!
I’ve been looking for this figure it looks awesome
You kill it every time, dude!
That Cad Bane custom is great
If I'm honest had they nailed the likeness I may have picked this up, but on top of that looking a bit off here to me the paint overall just doesn't do it for me.
Compared to say Cad Bane, that had a wash all over the legs and with that it helped convey the idea that his pants were a different material from his more clean jacket, to me this figure just looks a bit too plasticky. This may sound weird but there's almost a slight translucency to how the orange plastic looks, to me at least. I think the worst part for me is I could forgive all those issues if it weren't for the price increase, which ironically to me only highlights the cheaper aspects of this figure.
Then again maybe I'm the wrong person to talk, I'm the one guy who wished Cad Bane actually killed him (not because I dislike the character, I like him a lot, but I feel him dying would've been better from an overall story standpoint to reinforce how dangerous and dislikable Cad Bane is).
Either way I don't want to come off sounding overly negative, I'm glad to see you're happy with it Robo, and who knows maybe I'll change my mind when I see it in person.
They can't really say the paint makes it a deluxe and then not bother to paint almost the entire lower half of the figure. Great sculpt, great character, but it should either have been released at the standard release price point, or actually have the paint apps to justify the price.
Had they made it so he could be in armour and out of armour with alternate arms them maybe it could be deluxe. Aside from that it’s not deluxe.
It’s a very awesome looking figure
Great review tio robo🔥🔥🔪
That Book of boba fett cad bane custom looks awesome Robo!
“Think it through” You clearly have, I have, and it shall be mine!
I'm a fan. Like you Robo I don't mind doing some work on a figure, firstly it makes mine a bit unique and secondly it gets me playing with it a bit more. Otherwise he goes to the shelf and I move on to the next shiny thing I want.
Overall the figure looks pretty awesome! Thanks for showing it off. For the deluxe price, they should definitely go the extra mile and paint in those smaller details that you mentioned. Nobody wants to pay the deluxe price, but where else are you going to get a nice looking Cobb Vanth in this scale for a similar price? Not gonna happen. Cannot wait to get my hands on this one! -Justin
I think that's what it comes down to, it's not like I'm going to get Cobb from MAFEX or Figuarts. This is it. And like I said, I do enjoy adding paint and stuff.
Thanks!
Loving the fig a must get & custom do over 😜
Looking forward to getting this and painting in everything they skipped. Which is a lot. Which is why this isn't a deluxe price, it's their future standard price.
Can’t wait to add paint to this guy
Bedazzled 😂, that figure is begging a for dull and wash or dry wash , always awesome editing dude !!
An unwraped boba fett helmet !! Amazin!
Hope tonse how u customized boba deluxe and cob vanth⭐
Im def getting this!!! It does need a wash
"Deluxe" should have the weathering/grime paint apps you mentioned for the pants, boots... and some swappable hand options.
As others have pointed out, including Fwoosh, Hasbro continues to dupe us. Deluxe packaging and higher price due to so-called “paint” (WTF is that - charging more for paint - are we supposed to paint these figures by ourselves now if we want normally pricing?), but upon inspection they totally skimp on actual paint. Look at all the plain and unpainted details on this figure. It’s insane!
Also, his head appears to suffer from super glossy oily shine. Gonna need to pop it off and spray it with a coating of Mr Hobby Mr Super Clear Matt finishing spray that dulls the gloss/shine.
It just came to me now. That belt buckle reminds me of one of Eddie Van Halen’s guitars 🎸
Even with other painted details being missing, this is still a very nice figure, and I can’t wait to get him for my collection!
Camt wait to see that cad bane in the play day
Great figure and as always excellent review, it does have a lack of paint but i think the sculpt fills in for that but its not good enough in my opinion to be considered a deluxe figure
Cool figure.👍
The "salt & pepper shakers, etc." looks like speed loaders for his side arm blaster pistol of some sort to me.
Great review, as always. I really want this figure, but I’d rather wait a few years for the Book of Boba Fett Cobb Vanth 💜
All I want to know is… does this head sculpt bring us closer to a custom/kitbash Raylan Givens?
So height wise, he’s under 6 inches tall
In the Amazon photos for this figure, you can see in one of them that he’s using that little hook on his belt for a grip for his hand, the helmet works too though… ayyeeee🤙
I think I'll wait for the armorless version (Cuz y'know... Repacks are gonna happen). It looks like a lot of customizing potential in the sculpt.
Pepper and paprika? I thought Cobb Vanth was against the spice trade!
Great figure, but agree with the paint apps, not enough to merit a deluxe price. Still, I will buy it.
I have this on order, and thought for 30 the paint would be on point. I'm pretty let down. But Cobb is my boy, so oh well. Customizing it is!
The belt hook could have been for the detonator they used to blow up the dragon?
I think they re-used Return of the Jedi Luke’s belt and that’s why there’s a hook, those are typically got lightsabers
Imagine Timothy Olyphant would have played Boba Fett ...
"Extra" Paint apps that used to be standard on Black Series. Even so, they still skimped on the paint apps here, even though their reasoning for pricing this as deluxe is Extra Paint LOL... Hasbro's tactics the passed few years have stunk
I feel like they should have used the armor overlay from an actual Boba Fett on this figure, just to capture that awkward effect from the show
But that's exactly what they did...
@@TheFwoosh is it? I don't know, it just looks to snug on that body. Maybe they should have gone with a skinnier buck underneath then.
I figured the hook on his belt is so he can hook his thumb there, at least that's what I use it for.
i'm still on the fence on how did you get this already ? it's still on pre order everywhere and not set to come out till july.
Looks like you could do a custom Luke from Crate (the last Jedi) with his head sculpt!!
Found one at TRU today in Canada. It was $60 before tax. I bought it … but I might return it, even though it is Olyphantastic.
Reminds me of a marx johnny west cowboy
I think im going to hold out for an unarmored cobb vanth
Pls show us your updated star wars shelf
I know what you mean about doing little bit of customising and paint here and there I’m doing it with my McFarlane dc multiverse figures the now adding the fine details and makes them pop as I’m sure it’ll do with this too!
HEY! I’ll have you know that’s Smoked Paprika!
Oooo, fancy!
They really skimped on the paint here but hot damn that Cad Bane custom looks fantastic.
I know, I couldn’t see this deluxe! So I waited for a sale. $25 now on GameStop site.
Beef Bossk stole the show.🍔
Good review Robo! Looks like a pretty good release for black series, the "deluxe" price point is still hard to swallow. Especially since when I get my Cobb Vanth in I will be adding more paint apps to him. The sculpt is very nice though for sure, really nails the lanky proportions. I wonder if the belt hook is for the krayt dragon bomb detontator? I think in the episode Cobb hung it from his belt there. Maybe it was orignally planned to be one of the accessories?
@@edbraun383 Truth
It's a cool figure, but there's nothing "deluxe" about it. This term just seems to be a justification to charge a little more for a particular character. I wish that face likeness was a little closer, but that's asking a lot from Black Series. I am anxious to see some non-Hasbro releases and their head sculpts.
I bet dullcoat would help tamp down the colors a bit to get that worn look
Yeah, along with some pastel work, going to give that a shot soon.
The cloth capes on the two Mandos look great, did you make them yourself or are they from somewhere I can buy from?
So they're charging a deluxe price for this because of extra paint apps but this figure is missing about a dozen different paint apps at least. There's no excuse for this. They're just tricking you so they can charge you extra money and that's it
2:40 Cobb Vanth has a sling ring!
Would’ve been cool if they added that spice box or something to help the lack of the deluxe paint apps that were promised. The deluxe tag isn’t justified (see what I did there lol) in my opinion.
put this beside any Valaverse Action force release, this is not a deluxe! great review Robo. Hey Robo are you or did you do a video on how you attached that custom ROTJ Boba Fett cape?
The gloves are the same as Moff Gideon’s, both as the Black Series & in the show. They’re airsoft/paintball gloves.
How'd you already get it?? I'm trying to find it, but it's still on preorder
TBS is going to be the first thing that I cut out of my budget this year. I quit everything McFarlane last year. Quitting TBS and most of my ML this year. Really only doing imports at this point. Threezero, Medicom, and SHF are doing all the stuff that I want.
i had a dream about this figure... and im just now finding it exists??
I was fine paying the deluxe price for fully painted figures but you highlighted way to many unpainted spots for me to be happy about this boba tax.
