I was ready to dive into a whole wave of Hasbro Star Wars Black Series after a self-imposed dry spell so I jumped on Series 44 with Attack of the Clones Aayla Secura, Cone Wars Darth Maul, Obi-Wan Kenobi's Grand Inquisitor, along with Mandalorian Magistrate Greef Karga, Migs Mayfeld, and Axe Woves! And....I'm damn happy for the most part!

Feels like it's been awhile for a black seriees wave review. Holiday vibe is now complete thanks to you Robo.
A wave in May, a wave in April, some singles here and there, that's been in it. Feels good to break open a whole wave again!
This is an incredible wave. Let's get more prequel jedi!
"Lieutenant Maul! You got new legs!"
9:29 That cape flip was brilliant!!! 🤣🤣🤣
As far as I'm concerned that Grand Inquisitor is a win for for my Rebels collection. Now if only Agent Kallus shows up in a live action show.
An Agent Kallus is very much needed.
The body well not perfectly accurate can probably just be used for a rerelease with a more accurate head as an exclusive
Great review. This kind of wave is what would keep me coming back to Black Series. Enjoy the full wave reviews, hoping the unopened Joes he showed in his Outback review get something like this.
Oh yeah, Joes is getting that treatment at some point this month, but I have a few other things in line ahead of that.
Great to hear SAF getting a shout out here. I've been getting my figs from there for years now and they're awesome. Well packaged, speedy delivery and they communicate extremely well. Always very honest about when some of the higher prices are being set by silly Hasbro demands too. They got Mara Jade up for preorder really soon after the announcement, and mentioned in big red letters that they were getting very limited quantities of her, so I got a preorder in straight away. Sure enough, she was pre-sold out the next morning. Very appreciative of SAF for being upfront about that.
Another great mainline wave! That Maul might just be my Black Series figure of the year. I actually think it's a completely brand new sculpt. The Sith Apprentice Maul has nipples sculpted on the chest, lol. Great review of the new wave! -Justin
Haha, I guess I didn't peel the tunic back enough. But I agree, it's on my list now!
@@TheFwooshoh no 💀
That Maul is darn near perfect. What a great figure. Now I need another and a Mandalorian Sarcophagus
I couldn’t wait to get home from work when I seen the notification for this
Grammy nomination coming your way, Robo. Loved the Castlevania-style music during the intro and heavy metal when you heated up Axe’s helmet. 😂
Only watched this video for Aayla Secura because - well - Aayla Secura. Wife asked me lastnight who I wanted more for Christmas and, sadly, I went with Zarana instead of the Aayla ebay link I sent her. Sad times indeed when you're torn between two loves lol.
Awesome video of all amazing black series figures like Darth maul .axe woves .grand inquisitor aayla secura . Mayfeld great reviews has always keep collecting and may the force be with you all star wars fans the force is strong with this one 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻greef looks amazing figure
You know it would be hilarious for a play day is if we had a an entire body for bill burr so we could put the Meigs Mayfield head on to make it look like he’s doing stand up
A Star Wars review always makes my day better!
It felt good cracking open this many Star Wars figures at one time again. My review space is an absolute mess of Black Series figures and I love it!
Awesome figures. The Grand Inquisitor needs more red on his face markings, they look grey in the video
If you look carefully the axe woves vest piece is actually a new sculpt! I think the needed it to be bigger to accommodate that brown apron attached to his belt but they went through the trouble of resculpting it rather than just upsizing it.
I think axe wove shoulders pads are longer than deathwatch so they may be new also
I'm still waiting on a 6inch Starkiller/Galen Marek figure
I almost spit my drink at 15:19. Gotta be more careful when watching Robo at lunch break, specially at work lol
Great review Robo! Got myself this Darth Maul !😊
One of my favorite parts of your videos is watching you tear into the packages.
I hope you continue to do that in the future sometime because it adds an awesome sense of realism to the videos
Personality if you will
Whoa! Happy to see you still have the Mandalore throne
Yup, I love it!
Ah, yes-the War of Stars grows more war-y and starry. Very nice.
Excellent Review . I’ve missed Your full wave review 😊
Had this wave for a while and I have to say these are some of my favourite figures in the black series. Especially the Maul!
Aayla Secura is good for a custom KOTOR Mission Vao.
I have been waiting for this! Can’t wait to get this wave.
All great looking figures. Like Robo I'd prefer a Grand Inquisitor based off his Star Wars Rebels look, but this, could be another of his species.
The big relief is that Aayla Secura doesn't have Y-Jointed hips. Phew! I was gonna pass on her.
Ahhhhh....finally. I've been waiting for this review of new staw wars figs. About time
I need that Maul, him and the finale OWK Obi-Wan are my priority figures atm.
Awesome reviews! I'm really happy they're giving Force/ Saber Wielding characters the forward tilting hands; soooo much better for sword poses!
Exactly, that's why I get so excited about them!
Grand Inquisitor needs a custom head, that live action make up still really bothers me, BUT the body is phenomenal.
Indeed! Xs
Yes, very. Him and the other other Inquisitor for some reason looked less intimidating than they did in the cartoon.
No one cares if it bothers you. It looks fine. It’s an animated character that’s being put into live action. It looks the best it can look. Stop complaining
@@Justin-rd7ec but they did put a grand inquisitor's species in live action and they looked fine. Seems like an excuse the "it's animation being put into live action" when they already did that before and looked completely fine.
@@gugagamer2585 it doesn’t matter. It already looked good. The one in the kenobi show looked good. People just want to complain for no fucking reason all the damn time instead of being grateful we’re even getting this much Star Wars content
Great looking wave
Have watched for years and used Star action figures for longer, it's nice to hear them get a shout out on a big channel. Hope you got the same bombproof packing we get in the UK.
Oh yeah, packed nice and tight, several layers plus the original Hasbro shipping box!
The green bubble wrap haha I have a cupboard full of it and shipping boxes
Those look good
holy shit I'm glad I watched this! I might have bought that Greif Carga but man! Permanent damage from trying to make him sit once is ridiculous
Nice review as always 👌
A kick ass wave in December, definitely feels like Christmas!
Maul is the standout of this wave for me. As soon as the vintage collection figure of this appearance came out, I’ve been desperately waiting for a Black Series version
I edited out a little story time where I was standing at Celebration staring at the Vintage version, wondering if I should pick it up because it was so cool or if I should just wait for a Black Series version, however long that may take. Glad I waited!
@@TheFwoosh had to wait a long time but glad it’s finally here!
I Already Have Aayla Secura I Finally Have Her This Black Series Aayla Secura Is Absolutely Gorgeous Loved It So Much
i've been looking forward to this, hope i can get maul
Oh I've been eagerly waiting for this review. This is probably the most figures I've bought from a single Black Series wave in a while.
The Grand Inquisitor figure I find to be a lot of fun, I removed the cape to give him more of a Rebels look. I can overlook the head sculpt but I hate the wrists, especially since he very much had a fencing style of fighting in Rebels (I know it's a Kenobi version but still).
Migs I think is okay, I just find the colors ugly and its overall a bit plain.
I plan on getting that Greef Karga mainly because of the likeness, I always thought the last version looked off so I skipped it. I would get Aayla but I don't have any of the other prequel Jedi currently, so she doesn't have a spot in my collection yet.
Maul though, man, I've been waiting years for this design, probably making this my most anticipated figure of the year, and they nailed it. It's easily my Black Series figure of the year, there's so much character and personality you can pull off with the poses thanks to that head sculpt and the articulation. His characterization in that series makes that design my favorite version, to me it embodies that character in their most compelling era, plus it translates better to figure form than what we got with the Episode 1 version. For me he's right next to Vader on my villains display, then flanking him are all the other prequel era villains, I just love how it turned out.
It's been awhile FWOOSH! Thank you!!!
Your mention of the off colors reminds me if the discourse over the SH Figuarts Amazon Omega and Alpha. A lot people were pitching a fit over being to bright. Then a Rider crossover movie had them show up in bright shiny armor like the toys.
I use Star Action Figures as well. Works out when you order a bunch. Great review.
This is by far the best look for Maul
I think the shoulder pads on Axe might be new as they look longer than the death watch pads. I am still waiting for my Axe from Star Action Figures due to including some protective cases in the order.
Slick intro!
Ok, BIG surprise that you used one of the same shops that I use!!! 😱 I'm so used to you saying Target, Walmart, Dorkside etc... Gave me a surprise when you suddenly namedropped Star Action 😂
I’m going to have to track down an Aayla. She’s my prequel bae.
That's a beskar-solid wave! I might get a couple of those.
@CenturionsCorner did a great update on Aayla Secura.
As I commenced the viewing of this presentation and the camera panned down, revealing the Dark Lord on his Dark Throne, my mind was left barren but for one ever echoing word: “fuck.”
yay new black series review!!!
Nice video. Like the content great work, it’s just frustrating for somebody like me cause for example, I pre ordered Darth Maul and Aayla Secura back in August and now everybody seems to be getting them but me…
Finally getting a Maul with robot legs in 6 inch is the highlight of this wave. Help complete the Clone Wars and even Maul's cameo from the end of Solo. Do you think we will ever get a Qi'ra in her outfit from the Kessel Spice mine mission?
When do the THE YOKAI: EVIL JACK-O-LANTERN FIGURE ship by chance so can plan for future?
I finally received the last of this wave(that I wanted from it), getting Mayfeld in the mail yesterday. It has taken some time. None in 2022.
Where did you get the throne Darth Maul is on at the beginning of the video? It looks cool.
I’ll want to get a few of these.
Its about time the fwoosh returned to black series. I was worried you d given up on the black series
No no no, still bread and butter, just a lot more picky these days. Or frugal? Maybe both, haha.
I see the grand inquisitor an can't help but think of making Inquisitor Cal Kestis. I probably won't... but still, it's fun to think about.
Just picked up the Darth Maul action figure and wanted get the throne for him. Where did you get yours? Awesome figures and great review!!!
Cool!
A cool wave! I've basically made the switch to Vintage Collection, so even though this Maul is dope, I've already got the VC version which is better.
Any chance we'll be getting more Fortnite figure reviews? I'm getting really scared for the line, I don't see people talking about it, there aren't many new figures and Smyth's have stopped stocking the figures past the Bushranger wave, I've a bad feeling we'll never see the Seven Collection completed 😭
So excited for a Star War review!! Did I miss the review of the previous wave?
No, I only did the Ahsoka wave back in May, that's been it for full waves since last year. Just haven't been picking up as much until now.
Still enjoy every video you post! Keep it up!
The Chest overlay on Axe is new too I don't know why they didn't make the entire torso overlay accurate
Hey Robo are you planning to review rest of the Inquisitors? Love your work man
Probably not, they are already open and old news on my shelf. I really dig them though. Maybe when the new one comes around?
@@TheFwoosh 0.0
OMG ITS TRUE!!! didnt notice there was no 3rd sister or new obiwan series , tteview 0.0
Hey Robo the Grand Inquisitor looks like a less green looking "The Great Kazoo".
we have seen some temperature reactive stuff before in the black series (C3po from the babu frik pack and Dryden Vos) maybe you could try to use ice or warmth on the grand inquisitor's face? see if his eyes react to it? I dont have him yet or else I would have tried it already..
I was lucky enough to get get Magistrate Karga, Axe Woves, Grand Inquisitor, Ayla Secura and Mayfeld!
23:45 "Cumbersome" song by SEVEN MARY THREE
Maybe add to the song list and lyrics? Lol.
🤣😂😁😀😉🤘🤘
Oh yeah, I was planning it but then decided against. I'm still kicking myself.
Is axe from rebels? Is the grand inquisitor a rebels series figure? I could really use the help. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
While I am not a huge Star Wars fan, I am a fan of great looking action figures. I'm consistently impressed with the level of detail, paint and sculpt Black Series provides.
I focus mostly on Stormtroopers and bounty hunters, but if I think it's cool and it's in the budget, it ends up on my shelf. This wave reminds me of a long time Black Series want, Darth Talon. Is there a chance she might be made at some point, maybe as a fan channel exclusive? Or will she suffer the same fate as Slave Leia?
Maybe in the Publishing Program assortment?
@@TheFwoosh One can hope!
Hey Robo, what is the Matte spray you use? Since Im getting most of this wave I need something to fix the shiny faces.
I used Testors Dullcote for years, recently switched to Mr. Hobby Matte Spray. Both work good.
@@TheFwoosh thanks!
Fuck yeah!!!!
I’d love to see a bit more with maul in the throne maybe a short or something?
I'll do ya one better.... ua-cam.com/video/yFAQcPS7kiE/v-deo.html
@@TheFwoosh what an absolute legend thanks robo!
19:36 I know this is such a nitpick but I think the peg holding the 2 halves of the saber should’ve been on the other hilt. A lotta people are gonna be displaying him holding just the single end of that original hilt and it would be nice it there wasn’t a peg on it. That’s a nitpick though
Jayson is the bomb!!!
I wish you had shown the second sister with the other inquisitors
I had it out but then forgot to put it in the picture....
At last ! The Migs Mayfeld I wanted! And I think Everyone wanted!!! The marketing of Hasbro think on LOnnng terms! Because they give us a first Migs Tankdriver (Morak) everyone wants a Bill Burr ! Easy reused, new head! 1 year later Hasbro give us the "real" Migs Mayfeld everyone wants! And later in the next wave a Mando Tankdriver Morak so that everyone who bought the first Migs need this Mando to recreate that scene .... Ouf!
20:22 🤣
Having the3 together makes the two new heads look odd, I wonder if you pop the old head off and put it on one of the new body’s if it’ll match better (skin tone)
Have the Darth Maul lower legs been used before? Like on Zero or something.
Definitely don't match Zero. I don't recognize them from anywhere else, but then again I'm not the greatest at picking that out anymore. So many figures, so many years.
Where can I get that mando throne?
Maybe an arm swap from a sweater wearing gi joe might work for miggs
I think the textures are right, just the colors making it look all wrong.
This whole wave is about the Kuby figure making me happy. Am I happy with this Migs figure?
> Reasonably
22:20 if that's an overlay does that mean....
Really want a Black Series Savage Opress, with chipped horn and mechanical arm. Maul needs his brother/apprentice
one of the only things I dont get is why Hasbro opted to give Maul his cartoon looking legs instead of the legs in Solo, which by it's inclusion on the Rebels Darth Maul skin in Battlefront 2, is what the legs in live action should look like I guess, it's not a biggie for me, its just odd haha, cause well, make the solo legs once and you can re-use em for Rebels and Solo Maul figures in the future, the future of 2040 probably haha
I think the Inquisitor armour is designed to block lightsabers.
The grand inquisitor gives me doctor evil vibes
Axe Woves actually has a slightly different torso armor overlay than the deathwatch mandalorian. The differences are small but you can see Axe's torso overlay is a bit bigger in comparison to deathwatch
Huh, that's crazy. Really, it's just the epaulets set slightly further back and the wrinkles on the undershirt sculpted different. No reason to do that but they did, I totally missed that. Thanks for the heads up!
@@TheFwoosh Right!? It took me by surprise that hasbro would pass up an easy reuse opportunity to sculpt a more accurate overlay. Really shows how much more money goes into mainline releases compared to exclusives. Also thanks for the reply Robo, you're by far the best reviewer on youtube!
22:11 they can easily make jabba’s slave from new hope and even make the female sith with the red skin with black tattoos with this body............if only......
I really wish Aayla had the updated arms of Legends females. She could get in some incredible lightsaber poses if she did. Also, for today's prices, they can afford it.
Star Wars doesn't do double elbows though. If they had just made the trench longer like on Grand Inquisitor it would have more movement.
@@TheFwoosh i do agree both,
Bicep swivel or larger cute could have been better , still lookin to get aayla to get shot by CMD Bly XD
@@TheFwoosh Yeah, I know they don't, but I'm saying they should. Esp. with the new sculpting/articulation upgrades that have been made, which both function and look amazing.
I hate when saber wielding figures have single jointed elbows
id have gotten the GI if he was based on Rebels tbh.
the Kenobi version just looked so awkward, idk. everyone memed on the head but imo the lack of the longer collar/neck throws it off even more, not to memtion the proportions of the armor. i feel like the chestplate and shoulderpads being as large as they are throw the look of the Pau'an species off even further. although on the figure it's not *as bad* as in the show to be fair.
this one seems fine for those who didnt mind how Kenobi changed the look, but if you're into alien accuracy this seems like an easy pass unfortunately. even more so if you dont like costume redesigns I guess. kinda wish wed have gotten him in the style of the other rebels characters instead, but tough luck I suppose.
I got my maul from staraction figs. It costs 20 usd to ship aka double the total after tax for the fig. It will say its ₤19.99 but thats 25 or 24.99$ my total was 49.71 but they shipped it fast. If u buy more then 1 fig not sure if its just the service 20 dollar fee for 1 item or all. But if its a fig u really want. It's worth it. Ive been looking for maul for months. Its been out awhile in the uk. If u think 49.71 is too much for a blackseries not available til feb 23 in u.s they are going for 80 to 100 usd on mercari and ebay
18:00 "maybe it's batteries for his legs?"
Figuarts Darth maul head will fit, just have to take the plastic out the figuarts head. Look so much better.
The Maul lightsabre is about 1" too long. It would look better if the hilts were 0.5" shorter and each blade was 0.25" shorter.
Yeah, I think that's kind of what I was getting at, just seems a bit big.
take my money! i want a Bill Burr figure!
But they botched his face! I don't know who that is.
Where's all the Sequel figs at! ....
