8:29 i think the "old" hairpiece is much more accurate to the way bo katan looks in tcw. If you're going for the clone wars look what would look best would be a ginger version of the old anh luke hair. edit: i just realised the first attack of the clones obi wan kenobi figure (all the way back when they had yellow skin) came with this orange hair piece
Impressive customs there (thought it was some sort of April Fool’s prank, so you got me). But, I really want my hands on the new Bo-Katan figure that will be releasing soon!
I tried so hard to think of an April fool and I got nothing, though I think most others where the same cause I didn’t feel like there was any good jokes this year
You can improve a lot of these by buying from Clone Army Customs. In some cases more accurate waistcapes, as well as better helmets for most of the bad batch, and a custom arm for echo.
Here's some bonuses and corrections for you guys if you want. 1. That wasn't really much of a shoulder pad, it was actually a piece of armor attached to his ammo bandolier strap helping connect it to his chest plate, commonly used on Biker Advanced Recon Commandos, aka BARC troopers. 2. The best move for accuracy on the basic 187th trooper would be to get an unofficially printed torso without the bandolier and shoulder armor. However, the shoulder armor and bandolier would work nice for more 187th officers (lieutenants, captains, other commanders, all that.) 3. THIS ISNT A CORRECTION OR BONUS, WHAT WITCHCRAFT DID YOU USE TO KEEP THE ANTENNA IN THE HELMET 4. Next, the weapons. I personally don't own any of the unofficial lego star wars blasters, so if you wanna get the unofficial ones, i will leave the blaster names to possibly help, and more help using official pieces. This is the longest part because of the sub-parts, i apologize. 4a. the blaster on the 187th commander: DC-15/DC-15A, name may depend on what your preferred brand calls it, the terms are usually used interchangeably, try to get the one that looks the most like a bigger rifle 4b. the blaster on the basic 187th, same sort of names, if you're confused, get the one that looks like a carbine/submachine gun 4c. although the 501st heavy has a vertical double-barreled shotgun, if you want the true Battlefront 2 accuracy, get the DC-15a rifle i mentioned earlier, or a Z6 rotary cannon. For official pieces, try to look up how to build a lego minigun for the Z-6, or you can use the same instructions they give you in your instruction booklet on how you get the specialist's rifle. 4d. The 501st Specialist actually would use more of a sniper rifle, for Battlefront 2 accuracy, get something along the lines of Valken 38X. For official pieces, i'm stumped, i think you could just put another black candle piece at the end of the other candle piece? 4e. there is actually a more accurate official piece, try to get one of the clone pistols from older clone wars sets or your average brickarms pistol to fit the Officer's pistol. Same thing for Echo's pistol and Tech's pistols 4f. For Bo-Katan, would either keep the current piece for official pieces, or if you want the unofficial pieces, you would try to look for a Westar-35 4g. For Crosshair, your unofficial piece would be a 773 Firepuncher, or just keep the basic official piece. If you want the modified one he uses in the first episode, you'd need Lego's "Tommy-Gun" piece and you'd extend the barrel a bunch using stuff like candle pieces. 5. (CONGRATS YOU MADE IT PAST 4!) For Grievous, if you're going with the 2003 Clone Wars one, keep what you have. If you're going for the other Clone Wars show and Revenge of the Sith Grievous, try to get an unofficial (or official given they may have one) tan printed Grievous.
I feel like the BB could still be improved. A proper waistcape would look better for Echo and I feel like giving them actual backpacks would look better. Just like the current snowtroopers, they look way too flat from the side.
Looking awesome! One more way of making your minifigs a little more accurate, specifically tech: stand on a chair and drop him from shoulder height xD Haha Hah... 😢😢😢
It's kinda nuts how big of a difference the pauldrons make for the new clone troopers. Even if the prints on the hypothetical UCS Venator Rex are amazing he'll most likely be missing the pauldron and skirt bits. At least there are third party companies that are willing to fill the massive gap. Great vid.
I have desert skiff boba fett with olive green helmet instead of sand green helmet. but the jet pack is sand green.. I think lego test the olive green in boba's helmet but end up in sand green...
besides the dual molded legs, I also switched out Thrawn's weird dark blue hairpiece for 64798 in black. Way closer to his original look. For a younger Thrawn (Outbound Flight) I'd use the Tony Stark / Poe Dameron hairpiece
Hi guys, I want to let you guys know that for the bad batch there back pack are available. I have seen them on clone army customs but they will be other place s
You can actually take apart the cloth pieces to make 2 by pulling them apart, which souldn’t be that hard but great if you have more 187th clone troopers.😊
@@brickbanditstudios6037 adore the stretchy cloth but I’d easily take even papery cloth over no cloth. At the very least dual mold the legs so the color continues past just the front
I do think clones are neglected when it comes to detail, they don’t do cloth pauldrons for them any more which is sad. They do need to make a better tech helmet, his is MASSIVE.
@@Miszuq pretty sure you're confusing it with her jetpack, which has multiple blue panels and no jet nozzles. Her clone wars and rebels appearance sports a jetpack that is mostly grey/silver with a single stripe down the middle (and has nozzles).
Tbf the first Airborne Trooper isnt supposed to have a Pauldron. You can see he got a Strap on his Chest (like Bacara). So not giving him an pauldron would fit more. Also it isnt accurate to wear both pauldron and strap
I'm not trying to make this comment a hate one, just saying that for the 187th clones, you didn't need to put a shoulder cloth on because the printing is accurate to the old toys, it's just an armor piece, but their your figures and you can do whatever you want to them, cool video though
Making custom and accurate pauldrons to 501st heavy, windus airbourne and clone trooper 👎 Giving oversized pauldrons 👍 (+ the way that 501st heavy trooper is waering it Hurts my eyes)
Hanta, Crosshere, Icko, Wrecka, and Tick look great
literally bri'ish

1:48 do only i think that figure looked better without a pauldron?
The black pauldron isn’t actually cloth, it’s more accurate printed. It’s an additional shoulder plate for heavy troopers
Nice customs but I have one problem that I saw in this video. You have General Grevious legs backwards.
8:29 i think the "old" hairpiece is much more accurate to the way bo katan looks in tcw. If you're going for the clone wars look what would look best would be a ginger version of the old anh luke hair.

1:29 A much cheaper version for the cloth piece is cutting out the outline of it on paper or thin pieces of fabric from old clothes
I put yellow and then the metallic gold epaulettes (2526) on Thrawn as well and he looks so good. It also kinda hides the yellow on his shoulders.
Impressive customs there (thought it was some sort of April Fool’s prank, so you got me). But, I really want my hands on the new Bo-Katan figure that will be releasing soon!
Just another 5 or so months

Lofi in the background is amazing
Honestly Grievous having legs backwards ticks me off much more than it should lol.
You have the legs backward on Grevious
For the Bad Batch, Echo needs cloth and back packs from Clone Army Customs really helps and the custom screwdriver arm
The cape cantina has a lot of great custom cloth pieces, many for named characters
Yess. I love this series❤

I might do the Thrawn one if I ever find the legs on a BaM container.
Thrawn is so simple and yet so necessary
It’s the little things
how did you get the darksaber mold? I saw close to 1:30

I almost went and bought a bunch of pieces from Firestar toys the other day…until I saw the shipping was $20 for me 😂
The bad batch are my boys so you a real one for showcasing them
The bad batch look amazing!
This is perfect for the Lego Company!!!
I have desert skiff boba fett with olive green helmet instead of sand green helmet. but the jet pack is sand green.. I think lego test the olive green in boba's helmet but end up in sand green...
Great job, love these improvements!
A great way to make the bad batch more accurate is to get rid of tech...
Too soon man… too soon 💀
Great video! I am totally adding the caps to my Clones
I only recently realized that Thrawn’s rank is incorrect on the official Lego torso
Awesome work Holly. Love the upgrades.
besides the dual molded legs, I also switched out Thrawn's weird dark blue hairpiece for 64798 in black. Way closer to his original look. For a younger Thrawn (Outbound Flight) I'd use the Tony Stark / Poe Dameron hairpiece
01:03 Pauldron. It’s a Pauldron.
Great video, but I would like to point out that you have grievous's legs on backwards
What set is that general grievous minifig from, it's really awesome and I wanna pick up the set.
He was from the General Grievous Combat Speeder, but the same figure was also in his Starfighter from 2020
@@HollyOnFilm Alright, thank you for the help!
The only thing I would've done is give Echo his waistcape. It's what makes him look more unique from the group along with his arm.
GREAT LEGO CUSTOM STAR WARS MINIFIGURES UPGRADE 😊
Grievous’ legs are on backwards.
The rigid plastic skirt piece is a good way to shape the cloth skirts.
Echo has too many hands lol.
6:03 is no one gonna talk about his legs
I am
I wish I had the new Bo-Katan minifig.
Thought it was gonna be an April Fools vid 🤣
Me too, 🤣
Facts, I'm scared of every video I watch today
The Drew Gooden style ending was funny (sets on a table) like the hotdog website
ENDING? you still had half a video left!! 😂
Yea Ik idk why I put ending 😂 but good video loved all the custom arms for the bad batch
Id love to see unmasked bad batch some day. Wrecker, echo and crosshair are bald, and im sure you can find a good receded hair piece for tech
Hi guys, I want to let you guys know that for the bad batch there back pack are available. I have seen them on clone army customs but they will be other place s

I am trying to upgrade my boba fett great video very useful
I gave Hunter my spare Pocahontas’ hair
Capes4minifigs wins!!!
Forever thankful for the recommendation
@HollyOnFilm you should check out „the cape cantina“
great vid! why is general grievous backwards?
give the bad batch back packs also you gave wrecker hunters arms and you gave hunter wreckers arms so
Thanyou so much for not making this an April fools joke
GREAT VID HOLLY!!! :)
Great video! Thanks for staying serious today. Way too many jokesters. 😂
I thoroughly dislike that we don’t get cloth kamas anymore, I was gonna make a video about it myself
Wonder why they can’t make the stretchy cloth style like those that are used for the modern capes and the junior capes as well?
@@brickbanditstudios6037 adore the stretchy cloth but I’d easily take even papery cloth over no cloth. At the very least dual mold the legs so the color continues past just the front
Woooow Now they look like a Hasbro Black series
I'm pretty sure the airborne trooper doesn't actually have a pauldron, the troopers in ROTS just have a panel on their chest
Bring back the cloth pieces lego.
I do think clones are neglected when it comes to detail, they don’t do cloth pauldrons for them any more which is sad. They do need to make a better tech helmet, his is MASSIVE.
They’re so good yet so weak at the same time
Are the custom arms fake prints on real lego or just fake arms?
Yep! Custom prints on real lego
I think there's an editing mistake starting at 4:22
Oh dammit I forgot to add the photo
You have general grievous’s legs on backwards
Very nice! But please. Switch hunters and wreckers arms, got them the wrong way round :)
Oops, thank you for letting me know!
@@HollyOnFilm :)
I hate how the rank insignia on thrawn is wrong
Tip: AV Figures cloth is better and more accurate to the movies and shows.
Not all bandalers have pauldrons
6:42 he's legs are wrong
I gave my Bo Katan one of the 501st blue jetpacks, think it looks much better than the gunmetal grey
I love that idea omg
the 187 and 501st should not have a poldren, its a special boys belt. Rest is perfect
i think that bo-katan should also have swapped jetpack, to a blue one
Her jetpack in clone wars is more grey than blue
@@Hecatolite_ nah, it's more blue
@@Miszuq pretty sure you're confusing it with her jetpack, which has multiple blue panels and no jet nozzles.
Her clone wars and rebels appearance sports a jetpack that is mostly grey/silver with a single stripe down the middle (and has nozzles).
@@Hecatolite_ she appear in rebels?!
@@Miszuq yes, she appears in the season 4 episode, heroes of mandalore
How come the Greedo minifigures are expensive? (Not counting the Santa version of Greedo)
Tbf the first Airborne Trooper isnt supposed to have a Pauldron. You can see he got a Strap on his Chest (like Bacara). So not giving him an pauldron would fit more. Also it isnt accurate to wear both pauldron and strap
You should check out „the cape cantina“, they have cloth specifically for the clones and the quality is very good
Except their customer service is not good. Capes4minifigs is much better in that regard
Who’s going to tell her that the belt things on the clone armour isn’t for pouldrins
i was thinking that too
Bo Katan looks really good I don’t care what other people say
Arms👍🏻
why does grievous look like that though.... his legs are backwards

Nevermind the legs, there's no saving that awful Thrawn figure with his inaccurate skin colour and rank badge.
