Just dropping in to say that I appreciate that you do not take free handouts from Lego... and that you donate a more than fair amount of toys to charity. Plus there is no gossip spoken by you. You're a stand up guy Jang! Much respect from the west coast!
@The Tin Can Man the current run of the vader comics doesnt have that trooper. in fact they just built the castle in i think the last one or the one before that. It doesnt show much of the castle
The blue imperial pilot was featured in the VR experience “secrets of the empire” (or rather his uniform is, since the character is a rebel in disguise helping you with your mission). What I adore about this set is how it really encapsulates all of Star Wars as it stands today, with elements from the classic trilogy, rogue one, the comics, the animated shows and the VR experience. It’s just pure, distilled Star Wars goodness!
Interesting that there’s a figure of a character only seen in a VR game that’s only available at a certain place. Lol. Kinda sad that there wasn’t anything to do with darth Momin, but that stuff probably wasn’t released yet when they were making this.
The blue pilot is Lieutenant Affex. He's featured in the Star Wars: Secrets of the Empire VR experience at Disney which takes place on Mustafar and around Vader's Castle. He's your pilot and basically guides you through the mission. It's cool.
Those red windows look great from both sides. Jang, your reviews are the best by some distance.... would you ever consider doing your “top set” recommendations using your subjective opinion? As a relatively new AFOL collecting Star Wars sets I would appreciate your suggestions...
Love what they did with this set! One thing I wish was different though is that they should have switched the meditation chamber and bacta tank. That 2nd level could fit the bacta tank just fine and the larger first level would have allowed for a better and more intricate meditation chamber build.
Just built this last night - I'm pretty fond of it. I would have preferred a Krennic figure over that trooper, though.... ah well, I can pick up a minifig for him pretty easily on its own, I suppose.
LordOf TheBricks I mean for the general Star Wars sure but if you are aware of and have read the comics and such it makes more sense to release now. Besides I’m sure people still remember rogue one as it is my favourite film that Disney has made so far.
It looks like Jang remembered the info on Kyber crystals I gave him in the transformation video. That other lightsaber belonged to Jedi Master Kirak Infil'a, the Jedi from whom Vader procured his crystal. Those spears that the Royal Guards carry are called 'force pike', and you were 100% correct in your assessment of the shuttle pilot.
Pretty cool set. It’s better than I expected especially the amount of interior space, and the Advanced Tie looks quite nice. That Imperial Pilot minifigure gives me clone vibes as well. It’s torso printing looks a lot like a Revenge of the Sith era clone trooper’s armor.
I’d use that hanger for an Inquisitor training room, I feel it looks the part and I also think that using such a large space on the build for storage is a bit of a waste, other than that I love the set and can’t wait till it arrives!
My wife grabbed this for me for Christmas from Amazon.com during a one-day sale last December for just $89.99. (Regular Amazon price was/is $129.99.) I was pretty happy to get the set, and even happier that she got it for such a great price. :D
The comics in question consist of a story arc called “Fortress Vader” that runs from the 2017 Darth Vader series from Marvel, running from issues #19 through #25.
Jang, the control center opposite of the Sith relic is actually the charging sation for the mouse droid. There is an area you can put the mouse droid in.
Hehe so essentially, the bacta tank is the bathroom/bedroom, the meditation chamber is the kitchen/living space, the platform on the top is the deck, and the garage is, well, a garage!
The transport pilot is from the little story presented in the VR experience "secrets of the Empire". In it, the character this figure is based on helps a bunch of undercover Rebels to break into a Mustafarian research center. And he's voiced by Sam Witwer (Darth Maul, the Son, Galen Marek), which is fun.
He's not a Clone trooper or a member of the 501st though, so angry Clone still makes no sense :D But of course you can still think of him as that if you like to.
I wish they'd make this into a full blown complete Vader's castle UCS set, it would be so cool. But overall I like it. The sith shrine thing reminds me of the portal contraption that Moman made in the Vader comics, which I think so cool that they included it. And the kyber crystal is a nice nod to the comics as well
The reason the transport pilot is included is because there's a star wars VR experience taking place on mustafar. The pilot is a rebel spy helping the four players infiltrate a supply area to steal a sith relic. The sith relic turns out to be a Lightsaber which would explain the lightsaber in the sith section. There's also a part that looks similar to the ammo depot on the other side of the garage but I don't know if that's on purpose.The company who made the experience is called theVOID.
I just got this set for christmas. (Merry christmas btw if you're watching during the wonderfull time) And I got the best deal ever. Well rather my parents did. 3€ did this set cost when my parents bought it over Amazon. Best lego set deal *ever* if you ask me.
It's true. Vader keeps the 501st company under his personal command, even tho he'd got command over all the stormtroopers as long as he acts as Sidious likes it. The 501st company is one of the few companies that stays completely "pure" as they say about themselves. All of them are still 100% clones of Jango Fett. Not like the other companies, where they started to clone other people too.
The grey parts are supposed to be the NO parts of Vader, bacause when he's on the bacta tank he pretty much take all that mechanical things off, so you can display it without his hands, arm and maybe legs to
Hey jang, would you consider doing a retrospective of the complete solo lego sets like you did for The Force Awakens & Rogue One? Thanks - really enjoy your channel!
The blue Imperial transport pilot is from the virtual reality game: Secrets of the Empire. You play as a rebel and follow another rebel in disguise as the blue pilot and break into Vader's castle to retrieve an ancient artifact. I assume that the pilot minifigure is the pilot before the rebels took his armour.
Transport pilot appeared in the VR game "Secrets of the Empire" available in Disney Springs (both in Florida and LA if my memory serves me correct). I like the theory that he could be 501, but according to canon, Vader's Fist (his legion) never wore blue. This is because Anakin lead the 501st, and since Vader was no longer Anakin, you could imagine he wouldn't want any reminders of the person he "killed", so the Empire made sure that never happened.
Vader's castle was built to revive Padme. By the way, Padme WAS revived in canon and look at the nice side of palpatine, he ordered to build the castle for Vader so he can revive her. This happened on the new 2018 Darth Vader comic. Check it out! It's good! (And it is Canon)
The Imperial Pilot included in this set is from the canon ILMx labs virtual reality experience down in Orlando. The experience revolves around you and three others infiltrating an imperial compound just next to Vader’s castle, and the rebel pilot that takes you there, Athex, disguises himself as that pilot. He is killed by Vader at the end. So the minifig is either Athex or the pilot who Athex later kills, it’s up to you

Ok thank you

It's ok man
I bought the Indoraptor Lego set recently but I never would've known about it without you so thank you
Great review as always. You should do a thoughts video on the new Ninjago sets now that they've all been revealed.
Just dropping in to say that I appreciate that you do not take free handouts from Lego... and that you donate a more than fair amount of toys to charity. Plus there is no gossip spoken by you. You're a stand up guy Jang! Much respect from the west coast!
I agree. Upvote!

Darth Vader's Disney Princess Castle
The lava never bothered him anyways...
Gotta give a like as you remembered the two ‘ss
Anthony Nguyen ???
"Thank you, Mario! But Princess Leia is in another castle!"
HAHAHHAHAHAHAAAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA
The sith temple part is really cool.
I agree
I thought the set was awesome until I saw that... then it became a must buy for me!
L1NCHP1N same, I like little artifacts like that in sets
yep. one of the biggest misses in darth vader's charecter is his connaction to the sith as a religeon., or lack of it.
Anyone know more about the light saber in the wall?
After reading the darth Vader comics, this set is a MUST for me!
Go ahead and consume this trash.
me too I must GET THAT SET :)
CONNOR ROBERTSON it shows how powerful Vader is
What Darth Vader comics? Can you tell me the name so I can look it up?
@The Tin Can Man the current run of the vader comics doesnt have that trooper. in fact they just built the castle in i think the last one or the one before that. It doesnt show much of the castle

Isn't the sith shrine the one from the comics that Darth Vader used to open a portal?
@@ratbat1072 I was wondering the exact same thing
Blaine Hoover this sets based on the vr, that's why
I was thinking the same thing about the VR game. Just did it a week ago and I saw that figure and was like, "it's that guy!"
Ratbat 1986 it’s defiantly not the final nexus. I don’t remember each shrine design, unfortunately.
I won’t lie. This is definitely me when I’m choking on my aspirations.
The blue pilot is Lieutenant Affex. He's featured in the Star Wars: Secrets of the Empire VR experience at Disney which takes place on Mustafar and around Vader's Castle. He's your pilot and basically guides you through the mission. It's cool.
ive got it pre ordered for £99.99 with the Christmas present/bb8 mini fig and lego photo frame, perfect present for my son. nice build
Just got this set for $90CAD and I had a great time putting it together. This set is definitely one that that deserves to be put on display.
Those red windows look great from both sides. Jang, your reviews are the best by some distance.... would you ever consider doing your “top set” recommendations using your subjective opinion? As a relatively new AFOL collecting Star Wars sets I would appreciate your suggestions...
It definitely looks unique. Great figure selection, interior seems good, some cool pieces and colours. Might put this on my Christmas list!
Should have come with a Lord Momin minifig to complete the shrine part
YES AND SOME MUSTAFARIANS AND A PORTAL
i hope that pilot comes in a battle pack
i hope lego makes more sets with royal guards,a battle pack would be cool
I want lego to make a UCS version of this set.
I remember your work on URC. Such fantastic memories, I learnt so much and am now top 3 interstate ep8 buggy champion. Great to see your still around
I'm building this today! One of the coolest sets in a while for me. Love all the great elements in it. Thank you for the great review!
"Elite Mouse Droid" LOL
Dude why’s your voice so calming I literally fell asleep watching one of your videos
Definitely going to get this when it comes out in Singapore !!
Love what they did with this set! One thing I wish was different though is that they should have switched the meditation chamber and bacta tank. That 2nd level could fit the bacta tank just fine and the larger first level would have allowed for a better and more intricate meditation chamber build.
Just built this last night - I'm pretty fond of it. I would have preferred a Krennic figure over that trooper, though.... ah well, I can pick up a minifig for him pretty easily on its own, I suppose.
Yes since krennic only appear in one set
It would be cool if it had came with a Lord Momin figurine
Or at least the mask
Dagn, great set, I just wish they released it after Rogue One was released in movie theaters
Wow I didn't expect to see you here XD!
*dang
Yooo love your channel
Well, they did :D
LordOf TheBricks I mean for the general Star Wars sure but if you are aware of and have read the comics and such it makes more sense to release now. Besides I’m sure people still remember rogue one as it is my favourite film that Disney has made so far.
I got it for my birthday. I really love the castle and all the minifigs. Especially both the Vaders and the new dual piece helmet

What about the holocron?
Set looks great. Love the style and scale. Makes for a good display and playset. Good review.
The shuttle pilot is from the Star Wars VR experience, he’s voiced by Sam Witworth, the guy who voiced Maul in the clone wars and Starkiller
*Sam Witwer*
Eli HS
Sorry but it's *Witwer
And palpatine
And the Son in the Mortis arc!
From the void in Disney springs?
Who would’ve thought LEGO would ever make this. Truly fantastic set.
this is actually best youtuber ive ever watched
Pretty cool set. It’s better than I expected especially the amount of interior space, and the Advanced Tie looks quite nice. That Imperial Pilot minifigure gives me clone vibes as well. It’s torso printing looks a lot like a Revenge of the Sith era clone trooper’s armor.
4:39 That's a charging station for the mouse droid, as pictured on the box. :)
Will you be doing a thoughts video on the 2019 Ninjago sets?
The ‘stormtrooper’ is from the ‘Star Wars Secrets Of the Empire’ VR experience. It’s nice to see these subtle additions.
I’d use that hanger for an Inquisitor training room, I feel it looks the part and I also think that using such a large space on the build for storage is a bit of a waste, other than that I love the set and can’t wait till it arrives!
Great review, keep em coming. One request, could you “cyberpunk” the newest destiny’s bounty? I think that would turn out to be pretty cool.

When I first saw the set it made no sense but now after seeing the comics it makes so much sense now
Actually it does kinda make sense for the angry clone heads because it could just be before the Empire swapped out the clones for stormtroopers
That shuttle driver is from the vr experience and is not 501st
Yep
„Und das.. ist das“ fein gemacht 😂
Leon Günter what’s that in English? All I know is that “Und das... ist das” means that is that
Sry “ and that is that”
@@westfurman8638 "gemacht" is the past tense of "to make or do." No clue about the other word though.

I got it for 90 bucks on Amazon wit free shipping. Me and my kids gonna have fun with this one

Best thing about Angry Clone - is that one day they will change Angry Clone - and we will all CELEBRATE! 🎉
Jang, the control center opposite of the Sith relic is actually the charging sation for the mouse droid. There is an area you can put the mouse droid in.
This is actually a pretty great set as far as building goes. My only complaint is the lack of transparency with the tie fighter front window.
Okay the hologram is awesome!
That box art is beautiful
Hehe so essentially, the bacta tank is the bathroom/bedroom, the meditation chamber is the kitchen/living space, the platform on the top is the deck, and the garage is, well, a garage!
This is one great set
One thing I think would be really cool is if you used the Tank Vader head on the normal body to recreate his death scene.
I swear, He lives in the void, that table is so white it's like heaven
The stormtrooper is from Star Wars: Secrets of the Empire iirc.
1:26 twenty one pilots - neon gravestones xD
When you realize Anakin has the highest of grounds
Oh no
Cool to see they included a minifig of Star Wars Theory!
Would have been cool if they included a figure of lord momin and the mustafar guys😏
Kkkt, Zzzs, Bbbl, Rrrn and Sssp sure would be nice as lego
I’m tempted to buy this set just for the minifigs, they’re incredibly nice
That new injured/shirtless Vader torso could make a cool Darth Sion figure
May the LEGO be with you

That tiny little stud shooter at the top is just so funny to me.
I appreciate the review. But this thing reminds me more a a Saruman rejected hideout than something I'd expect Darth Vader to use.
LOL... I guess Count Dooku could use it then...
Hey JANG, will you be doing an impressions video on the photos of the 2019 technic sets? I'd love to hear your opinion on them!
Nice review love your channel
Man don’t i love your channel jang! Your actually my only favorite LEGO you tuber and I’m glad you are! 😃
I really like the blue imperial transport pilot glad they kind of gave a nod to 501st

.

It think the new Vader's Fighter looks better then the old one howerever I'm very disappointed that they didn't bother making a real window.

I believe that "control unit" in the ammunition room is actually a docking station for the Mouse Droid, hence the redesign!

That sith temple downstairs is pretty awesome.
I will by this. Nothing will stop me, this is a must have!
Darth Vader's Summer Beach Vista looking pretty good 👌
That control system by the studs is a mouse droid recharging station!!!!
The control panel on the bottom next to the crystal is a mouse droid charging bay.
Looks really cool for display purposes
