Awesome definitive representation of TPM Maul. Which is special to me because it is our FIRST introduction to him. Iv got mine otw from Big Bad and now after watching your review I’m even more exited. Glad to know that he’s got some nice articulation, as we know Maul is an extremely athletic and strong individual so he should be able to dynamically pose!! As always Matt, I enjoyed the review! Thanks for showing him off!
Amazing character. Watching him fight and move like he did in TPM was just awesome. Bringing him back in TCW and Rebels sealed the deal for me - what an amazing story! Hope yours arrives soon. Thanks for watching, Cody!
Wow!. Great looking Maul. His Character is one of my favorite Villains in the series,Definitely the Coolest dressed Villain (imo). I didn’t think I needed another Maul but this one is bigtime tempting!. Great Review Matt,Excellent choice. Thanks Brother.👍👊☮️
Maul is certainly one of my favorite characters as well. His appearance in Rebels in particular is just so good. This Phantom Menace version looks great. Thanks so much for watching as always, Mark! 👊
I decided that I want a single, definitive representation for most of the characters. Old Master Maul was that for me. Although I almost acquired this at Walmart, a collector entered the aisle, and I could see he was disappointed that I grabbed the last one. So, I handed it over to him. I know he will enjoy it more than I would have. Great figure and I’m glad I get to enjoy these videos. Even if it isn’t for me, I love watching the joy in our community that this exists.
Old Master Maul is a tremendous figure. One of my faves! Very cool story about the figure at the store - that's awesome! Thanks so much for watching, Joshua!
Great review. I wasn't planning on picking up this Maul, becasue I am not a fan of PM and already have the old Maul version. BUt the new face sculpt and the great articulation is pretty tempting!!!😅
Thanks very much. Even though Maul was the 'highlight' of TPM (and Qui-Gon), I totally get why some would pass on this one. And that's cool. But, like you said, the sculpt and articulation are hard to beat. I appreciate you checking out the video!
@@Matt_Bryant It was like this on the SDCC Maul, in this figure's promo shots, and other reviews, so I'm pretty sure this missed detail is unfortunately on all copies.
It is a tip top maul,love the hard plastic on this one,my other stays on his sith speeder bike,there are many head swap opportunities in the black series line with this fig,great review as always
Tip top for sure. The plastic robe works perfectly on this one and has some great detail. I'm sure the cloth one being on the speeder looks good too. Head swaps are a great idea - especially since there's no other skin showing. You don't have to worry about skin tones matching. Thanks so much for checking out the video!
The face print looks very sharp and clear hope its consistent on other copys. Had many issues wit hthe clone wars maul faceprints some where really off with QC issues.
Yeah, it looks good. Someone pointed out that the face on the chin is a little off. Overall, I think it's an awesome Maul. I think my Clone Wars Maul is pretty good as far as the face goes. Thanks for checking out the video!
That Darth Maul is nice. To be honest, only reason I enjoyed episode 1 is because of Darth Maul. The way he wielded that double bladed light saber. I was mesmerized. I've got my figures saved on my pile of loot on bbts. Cool review 👊
He was definitely a highlight in TPM - so cool to see a Jedi killer move like that. Great character and a great figure! Thanks for checking out the review, Martin!
Another great review Matt 👍🏻. For now I’ve passed on this one - I’ve got the GameStop three pack on order and the other previously released Mauls. Looks like we have more Phantom Menace figs coming soon…
Thank you, Brian. Yeah, I believe the one in the 3-pack is the same figure just with a cloth robe. I don't blame you for skipping this one. Cool figure though! I appreciate you watching!
Looks a great figure! I've got TPM three pack coming so I won't be picking this one up however. It's good to see what a great job they've done with this one though.
This figure is pretty awesome. I have the three pack coming as well. I never got Padawan Obi-Wan and I'm looking forward to having robes for each. Thanks a bunch for watching, Thomas!
My only Maul is the Clone Wars version and I prefer to have a single per character, but this is the OG live action Maul and I have to get this one. I’m picking up the Duel of the Fates 3-pack since I’m missing a Qui-Gon Jinn too
Clone Wars Maul looks incredible - and that part of his story arc was so good. The Phantom Menace Maul is indeed, like you said - the OG. A must-have I think. I'm also waiting on the 3-pack since I still need Padawan Obi-Wan. Looking forward to that one. Hope you can snag TPM Maul soon! Thanks a bunch for watching!
Cracking reveiw as always Matt this figure is awesome I got mine last week and I love it however of all the mauls I don’t know about you but clone wars maul is my favourite just waiting on my three pack now and my Darth sidious will be here within a week so I’m happy
Thanks, Aaron. Yep, this Maul is pretty awesome indeed. Clone Wars Maul is very good and the outfit is spot on. For me, the saber length is just way too long. I still love the figure though! I appreciate you watching as always!
@@Matt_Bryant yeah the Saber length is a bit ridiculous so I just swapped it out for shorter ones but I love this maul to I need to get the old master maul though
Bought this and the Vader New Hope Black Series figure and thought they'd be same size tbf. Vader is more like 7" whilst Maul is pretty much dead on 6".
Most of The Black Series figures scale pretty well. There are, of course, quite a few that are completely out of scale. They're either way too tall, or too short. But , as characters, Vader is quite tall, and Maul is not. In fact, to be screen accurate, Maul should be a little under 6 inches. Glad you picked up the new Maul - phenomenal figure. And everyone needs a Vader on the shelf. 👍👍 Thanks so much for watching!
@Matt_Bryant Yeah I was expecting Maul to be the same size as Vader haha, but screen wise, it does make sense for him to be shorter. They're the only two Black Series figures I have, too, so just thought they're all the same size haha!
Hey Matt how you been doing question do you sell that new Black series to reveal in question I bet you the most you want is Savage opress the pre-ordered him he looks pretty good
Hey, Jacob - all is well. I did see Savage Opress. It looks great and I did pre-order it. Looking forward to that one as well as Shaak Ti, Luminara Unduli, and Sebulba. Thanks for watching!
Knock off Maulio!! 😮😮 Matthew, you are singlehandedly responsible for the destruction of this line!! No wonder the Black Series is dead! Anyway, tomfoolery aside, I'm surprised a figure with a plastic skirt is better than the one with soft goods?
For detail, I'll take plastic over cloth any day. This Maul is dang near perfect. However, in some cases, cloth works. For example, Shaak Ti and Luminara Unduli look amazing. Thanks for watching, David!
@@Matt_Bryant Some surprising reveals today for sure. However, I definitely seem to be in the minority when I'd have much preferred Lobot, Bespin Gown Leia and a Weequay!!

1:27 Wish the chin tattoo was positioned accurately. It's supposed to be higher, beginning at the lower lip with the snake tongue visible in front.
I'll have to take a closer look. Mine may have missed. Some might be perfect. Ya never know... Thanks for watching!
@@Matt_Bryant It was like this on the SDCC Maul, in this figure's promo shots, and other reviews, so I'm pretty sure this missed detail is unfortunately on all copies.

Black series is on a roll
💯 Absolutely. Lots of good ones this year and some awesome ones lined up for 2025. I'm happy! Thanks for watching!

Tatooine is sparsely populated. If the trace was correct I will find them quickly master.
And found them he did! Thanks for watching, my friend! 👍🏻

@MegaSting1981 Nice! Yeah, it's a 1/12 scale line of figures. So, they "should" be the same size/height of the character/actor. 👍👍
Even tho I have the 3 pack coming and the speeder one, I might get this to leave carded
Sounds like a good plan! Good looking figure - even in the box. :) Thanks so much for checking out the review!

@@Matt_Bryant of course you're very welcome
Good morning,
These are the same as in the trio pack?
"Obi wan-Qui-Gon Jinn-Darth maul"
It's my understanding that it's the same Maul, but the 3-pack comes with cloth robes for each figure. Thanks for checking out the video!
I remember I bought the SH Figuarts Darth Maul and I found out that I bought the Knock-off Figuarts Maul I thought I bought the Authentic Darth Maul
Oh no! That's too bad... Thanks for checking out the review!
@@Matt_Bryant I'll get this new Darth Maul he looks way better than the original release
Knock off Maulio!! 😮😮 Matthew, you are singlehandedly responsible for the destruction of this line!! No wonder the Black Series is dead!
