    I've been liking what I'm seeing from the Micro Galaxy collection so far. It's the combination of the scale and the price that is the winner for me. They don't take up too much space and are quite affordable, especially the smaller vehicles. So far I have picked up the Falcon, Luke's X-Wing, Vader's Tie, standard Tie and the AT-ST. I'm gonna mainly stick with original trilogy vehicles. Great review, Michael 🏆🏅

    A random stop to Target today resulted me in picking this up! I had no idea these were a thing, but something about this was very nostalgic for me, and I had to get it. I don't own a Millennium Falcon and this is definitely a must have, I think! The detail is amazing, and I love the tiny figures haha. Scanned the barcode with the Target app and was surprised it was only 24.99 - a no brainer at that price point 👍

  • @A.Hanson

    Right now I'm loving the Star Wars Mission Fleet line. It's not a micro line but it's Hasbro's "kid" line. Part of the reason I love these figures is that they are perfectly scaled to the interiors of my Galaxy's Edge Big Millennium Falcon. They can fit through the interior doors, sit on the couch, actually hide in the smuggler compartments, use the ramp etc.

    Always loved this scale as a kid. The action fleet line was great for vehicle play. Had the micro machines Falcon but it kind of ended up more like a carrying case/playset than an actual vehicle.

    I have this same model. I got it for Christmas this last year. I definitely remember having the original Micros from the 90s myself. Sadly I got rid of my old ones. Stupid kid move I know. Just a tip that was missed in the video. If you hold down the activation switch it will after it’s turned on, the hyperdrive sound effects will engage.

    this is a nod back to the Micro Machines/Action Fleet Line of Star Wars vehicles and I'm honestly loving it! Side note: I agree with Michael; the weathering is shoddy and not in scale with the vehicle. A cloth with Isopropyl Alcohol gets rid of the stains left behind and leaves the wash deep in the crevices which, to me, feels more accurate. Took me all of 15 minutes to do and it looks SO much better

    I have memories of having a set of Micromachines and Penny Racers. The scale of this Millenium Falcon function both as a vehicle and a playset simultaneously. I am amazed at how much detail they can squeeze in. Also, some MOTU nano-scaled toys are just as impressive in appearance and playability.

    Incredible video review. It's clear that you are into the details of Star Wars. I am as well and couldn't have given a more complete analysis of this toy. I own a nice chunk of this new Micro Galaxy Squadron and I have nearly completed the Galoob Action Fleet as well and Jazware's product, imo, is far superior in every way. Make no mistake, the Action Fleet is a dominate force in the legacy of Star Wars toys ever made. But this new collection is so amazing with scale and details, I get to actually fall in love with toy collecting all over again. I've subbed and look forward to the next review.💪😷💯🔥🔥🔥

    Aaand sold! I'm not really a Star Wars fan past the first couple movies but still love those two enough to have the big MF in my collection. The solicitations for these looked genuinely bad so I wrote them off, yet the final product looks great for what it is, and $25 US on Amazon is a seriously good deal. Add an X-Wing, maybe some Snowspeeders and the Slave-1, and these will be all the Star Wars I need for my collection :)

    That paint wash is very similar to the Ihome bluetooth speaker I have. I also think the charcoal looking wash is too much. That's a perfect size though I'm so tempted to at least get an X-Wing but I know that's a slippery slope! I also have the Titanium Falcon that's similar to this size and prefer that ships paint.

  • @TheNightBadger
    @TheNightBadger Рік тому

    Mixed feelings on this. On the one hand - I like that they're doing the line, and the Falcon is a good effort, but for me it's so close to what I'd want from a perfect small scale Falcon yet misses the mark in too many places. I'm not a lights and sounds person, so I would have taken that feature out and created more internal space with a couple more movie-related play areas / features. I would have put the top cannon in the center and made the seat in the middle a double one with a cannon on the bottom, but to do that the vehicle would have to have been ever so slightly larger, and need a lower landing gear (the landing gear it has is finicky). So close to being my personal version of perfect. It's probably the best Micro Falcon they've made yet (even though I love the Kenner one...). Suggestion: Rather than close the ramp on the bottom until he clips 'click' - just push it til they're almost closed - there's a gap, but it'll save them from inevitably snapping. The X-Wing looks ok, but a little plasticky, but the Tie Fighters look great, as do the mini figures. Happy for the line. This scale - just like the 90's Action Fleet line - is about perfect for the sweet spot of detail, playability, and practicality if you have limited space - the perfect 'office' sized Star Wars vehicles. Looking forward to the Landspeeder...

  • @MrChristopoop

    I believe in the US, I have seen the Falcon for 48 dollars (at Walmart in central NY). Slave 1 was around 40, but I couldn’t bring myself to pull the trigger on em. I also love the figures with these. I think that Falcon is pretty sweet. May have to grab one after watching this.

    • @MichaelMercy

      $48US works out to about $65CAN. Yeah, the figures are great. Imagine if they put out big multi-packs of Stormtroopers and Rebels.

    • @MrChristopoop
      @MrChristopoop Рік тому

      That would be awesome! I have to say after I watched, I did a quick search and just ordered one of these from Amazon (I don’t like to use them normally but it was 33 bucks after shipping, I haven’t seen it that cheap anywhere. I looked over all the pictures and watched the video to make sure it wasn’t a knock off or those other toys for toddler age with 5 POA figures included. They didn’t have anything else except an AT ST and Slave one at 89 dollar price point. Glad you put this video out, I would not have looked for one otherwise

    I really like this line but.... They are a hair shorter than the diaclone, action fleet, the buzz light-year figures and the star wars transformers crossover figure, and the smallest GI Joes. Witch all fit in scale together. And ...there too big to fit with older galoob figures. Still great pieces for my collection.

    I've seen this one where I live selling at around $54 USD, which personally I find a bit overpriced (especially so during these hard times we're currently going through, money is pretty tight these days), but I must concede that this is fairly good for the scale. I agree this would have been even better if a farmer Luke mini figure was included as well; hopefully they're saving it (along with Artoo and Threepio) for a future Landspeeder release. As always, thanks for the effort of giving us who can't a closer look at these items, Michael.
