A-Case: Victory - Cracking Unboxing and Review
Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 лют 2025
- There is movement in the wild lands... what could it be? Manticore? Catoblepas? Nay! It is the Bard, stirring once more with another cracking unboxing! New ground is broken this day as he engages with a practical object, the A-Case Victory miniature case. What absurdity is this? It doesn't even have a barbarian hero drawn on it!
That's some impressively dangerous and reckless knife moves early on. The sign of a true master of unboxing.

You can't actually see it, but he stabs a guy outside of the frame. ;)
Dont you mean "Master of unlocking" :O
Jill?
Cracking skills.
Mellow Gaming great review
That knife toss was smooth as fuck.
dude, i had to rewatch it 3 times. it
was fucking sick
Felix Reisinger same
@@shinny_grimmy How many takes were binned in the camera trash can me thinks
You are exactly how I always imagined Tom Bombadil
That’s a hell of a compliment
@@jstiz88 indeed it is
THE BEST PART ABOUT HERO QUEST IARE THE TRAYS
*flips knife around*
When I watch these back, the knife looks a bit dangerous...
*proceeds to keep flipping the knife around*
0:32 The Deftly Bardic Knife Flick in action
Ed Turvey wow I didn't realize he caught it by the blade lol
impressive
That knife flip!!!
I'd love a supercut of all the knife flips
i really don't care about figurines and board games but you're just such a pleasant/entertaining/charismatic guy and your vids are so fun to watch even for someone with no knowledge on the subject aaah thx so much for making these, rock on ♥
It's astounding just how much energy and entertainment you can bring to a review of a bag with some metal plates in it.
You are one of my favorite UA-cam channels and I love your humor and wit. Ever thought about doing a Q&A video or maybe starting a Twitter account? You provide awesome commentary
Like a mailbag sort of video? I had given that some thought actually. It might be a good idea.
Yeah! Or maybe do a video where people ask you questions in the comments and you answer them in another video. Just a thought!
High regard goes to any who can name all three films whose elements appear in the crusade bit.
Music is definitely from The Beyond. Judging by the ascot I'd say the Cushing footage is from Frankenstein Created Woman, but hard to be sure (I don't recall a big fire in that one).
Should do that dwarf voice a little more I love it
Lucio Fulci's The Beyond for the music if I'm not mistaken, and the visuals appear to come from Frankenstein Must Be Destroyed and Star Wars (the non-buggered-about-digitally version too - bravo). I did wonder if the first shot of the blessed Saint Peter of Cushing was from The Skull, mind you - he barely changed physically throughout his career, much like Saint Christopher of Lee... I see a pattern here...
Reverend, you did it! Well done.
Now that I have played it I can say its my favourite survival-crafty game by virtue of its theme. I still don;t really like it though; i've never liked those games. There has got to be a better way to make a survival game that re-hashing the old hunger-meter, thirst-meter thing.
Ever been lost in the wilderness in Everquest? Now that's a survival experience.
Still, Conan Exiles does seem to be a fair example of its kind. I'll play it some more; maybe it will grow on me.
Assuming I can find a server with default settings. Is there any better way to ruin the experience than with huge XP and harvesting multipliers?
Thanks so much for your enthusiasm. You've become one of my favorite youtubers man. And if you ever want to do anything related to Warhammer Fantasy or 40k I'd love to have you. Recently been diving into the world of Warhammer on the gaming, tabletop, and modeling side and it's been a blast.
Oh shit zoran watches bardic.
Thank you, Mr. Bear. I'm usually quite interested in stuff relating to the various flavours of Warhammer.
I've recently gotten into playing Space Wolves. They're super neat! I usually get crap for voicing leman russ on those Text to Speech shorts. But I really like the extra flare added to them. And how they stray off to do their own thing. Not to mention the barbaric style they portray of being savage warriors born of a cold wasteland. Along with their rite of passage to become space marines being to find and kill a savage wolf that count easily tear even the toughest space marine apart. It's been a lovely universe to get into. And I hope one day to master it! Even a little bit.
How do you feel about Age Of Sigmar? I never got a chance to play Warhammer Fantasy Battles, but the simplicity and low entry bar for Age Of Simar caused me to buy a Starter Box. I have to say I absolutely love it.
Space Wolves are the best. The space furries meme is stale and childish, Space Murder Vikings are without a doubt cool as hell.
THE BARD IS BACK! HALLELUJAH!
Nice shirt you're wearing during the video, btw.
Also HOLY CANOLI THOSE KNIFE SKILLS AT 1:30!
I loved the DoW reference at 11:14-11:22, haha
Thank you, Lord Vader. It is indeed a lovely portrait of your late wife.

*blank stare and heavy breathing*
Bard!
please do more videos like heroquest!
It got 800,000 views!
We need MOARE!
How can he do another video like heroquest when there isn't any other game like heroquest in all the land. Unless he does another video about heroquest.
Hmmm... another video about heroquest. Maybe, the worst thing about heroquest?
Least good can still be good. I want him to talk about the fact that they never officially finished the wizard. I want him to talk about why the expansions are rubbish. I want to hear about how the theme is so generic as to be practically sterile. Though that last one is a little bit good, especially since it's so generic that literally anything can be shoehorned in. But nevermind that. The worst thing about heroquest is the fact that you can't find it anywhere. For such a great game it's impossible to get a copy, new or old, if you want to play it. Like Firefly or Star Control II it was simply too good to exist in a world where Gilligan's Island ran for 8 seasons and Sharknado got not one but two sequels. We may not be living in the darkest timeline, but we are living in the lamest one.
I don't even own any miniatures but I watched all of this. Your videos are mesmerising... must be the beard
Maybe you could do with a miniature or two on your shelf, sir?
As someone who enjoys throwing knives and hatchets from time to time, let me just comment on how impressed I am with the hand-eye coordination and general prowess of your box knife handling throughout your vids.
Reason to live has been restored.
When I think of the phrase "Dungeon Master" I think of this guy. Those knife skills and the confidence delivered in every line make him seem like a low level deity hiding in plain sight
You could review paint swatches and I'd still watch enthusiastically.
notjux to be sure!
So true. I'm not even into half the stuff he reviews but I still enjoy watching these videos.
I don't even own miniatures, but watching these reviews and unboxings are so entertaining that I've watched just about every one. Truly, the best crrracking reviews in all the lands!
He returns victorious from the field of battle with spoils of war and tales of blood and bravery!
I'm glad Ive found this channel 3 years late. It has given me a lot of content to binge watch at once.
Never clicked on a video so fast! Another CRRRRRACKING unboxing!
This made my morning! I'm glad u took the time to put the corners in the review. Most reviewers forget the importance of good corner shots.
Just as sleep called to me, what did i see? A video from the Bard!. Sleep can wait, the bearded bard beckons with his beautiful broadcast of bardy...bardiness
AH! Welcome back, Bard. Always a treat watching one of your videos...even for just your excellent use of language! A pleasure, sir. Rob
Nice knife moves, if I were in a dungeon crawl I would have you up at the front of the party as a barbarian thief.
That's for beginners! He'd be the Dwarf!
A new video from the Bard is always a wonderful thing. I can never get enough of your videos!
New bard video! My day doesn't suck anymore!
Every dwarf must flip the knife like a master! Exceptional as always from the Bard!
A new video from The Bard! Wooo!
I don't play miniatures, but these videos are great. Your character is really great to listen to, and I especially like your honesty. I've seen other reviews that ignore these problems in favour of a positive review.
Thank you Mr. Ryan. I curry neither favour nor fame with my video hobby. The A-case fellow originally wanted me to make some kind of glowing promo video but I refused and said I'd review it instead. I don't hold with doing promotional videos on my channel and I extra don't hold with the idea of being exploited - if that's the right word.
Been waiting for a new Bard video. Hell yeah.
I have not played war-games in about 20 years, but I still love watching these reviews. Great stuff
You sir are hilarious. I would love to have you read me bedtime stories or something. I could never be a good friend to you though, I'd be too caught up in how much I enjoy hearing you talk.
A bed-time story? No problem! vocaroo.com/i/s0fhD0qN8eup
Ooooh man! Thank you so much! This is wonderful! You sir have made my night. Thank you thank you
You're welcome :)
BardicBroadcasts this was fantastic!! You could easily make videos of flicking through pages of a book while reading to them. They would be so much more interesting than others out there!
Ah, thank you :)
While hunorous and stylistic I found this review genuinely helpful in a practical sense. You covered the positives and negatives of the not just the case itself but also it's competitors. Very well done sir.
1:27 What an absolute legend.
The only unboxing channel worth watching, I absolutely love your content.
Bard! By the Nine, Where have you been !
I've been in my realm. Where have you been?
symbolicsin so, is the nine a direct Elder Scrolls reference or are there other fictional pantheons possessing that magic number?
Ha ha it's a Elder Scrolls reference, I have been in the lands of Skyrim and Cyrodiil as of late.
symbolicsin Cyrodiil is a good land, even if others say it isn't. It was the first land I visited. (also the only game I platted on 360)
'The black plastic is even tougher- it must have bonuses against unboxing!' has me in stitches :D
Alas! Cry forth and proclaim the return of the Bard!
I've just discovered this channel and immidiately fell in love with it. Been watching all the videos for the past few days, can't wait for more!
I love your videos, and I don't even play board games or have any interest in miniatures. I just really love your videos!
It must be his unparallaled charisma! Or perhaps his magnificent beard? It is beyond the capability of mortal men to determine.
I definitely know I am no match for his charisma, that's for damn sure!
"I think this could also serve as an EMERGENCY CONAN DEPLOYMENT UNIT" Your videos never fail to cheer me up. You're awesome Bardic.
Fantastic sir, its been far too long since we've seen that beauty of a beard on the youtubes and although carrying cases aren't the most interesting of things it was still an enjoyable video. I definitely hope to see some more vids from you in this year of 2017
Ahh, tally ho Commander! Grand to hear from ye again!
you may be please to hear young Mr Gruff has dragged me into the world of Sigmar, as tomorrow i shall make the long trek to his home to play my 2nd game of it :)
Keen! Has Mr. Gruff resisted the temptation to replace all the models with Transformers?
the poor man has gone deep in sir, has bought a good few of the different race starter kits as well as other bits and bobs like the 40k tzeench dudes that appeared for Wrath of Magnus and i think he plans on getting the Disciples that are right around the corner
Always a fantastic morning when the Bard appears in my sub feed! Great to see you again Sir!!!
That price, holy cow! I'm not sure it's worth even half that.
how is this guy not more popular great delivery, decent humor, decent camera work over all this guy is great lol keep it up
First cracking unboxing of the year. Joy will be at maximum levels in my lands!
Not that I'm surprised, but I'm really impressed at how fair and honest this review was, and entertaining as always!
Thumbs up for bragging-level boxing knife display!
I stumbled on your unboxings last night for the first time. Your are easily my favourite and funniest warhammer youtuber ever!!! Absolutly hillarious!!!!!!
Chancellor Valorum played his part ... as a pawn.
It's not often we see a simultaneously fair, thorough and entertaining review on youtube.
I have missed Bard's voice! Holy crap, I didn't even realize.
I would have subbed to this channel for the knife skills alone. The humor & voice are just bonuses.
Could you do a review on the various editions of D&D? I'd like to know your take on the pros and cons of each.
Actually, yes I have been thinking of talking about D&D recently. I don't know if I could review all the editions but there are a few key points I would like to discuss one day.
Also I'd like to say I really appreciate your videos. I am not a miniature man myself nor do I collect figurines but you make me really want to get into them. The quality of these entertaining and informational video are so much fun. I think I've watched and re-watched your Hero Quest video about 17 times by now.
Aye, miniatures and figures are grand enough to collect. I'm quite selective with them, an attitude I recommend to any who would collect.
What's the best place to start my own collection?
So, I was linked this video as an unboxing video. Which I really don't care much for. But I was rather surprised. The sheer amount of charisma and useful information kept me watching the whole thing, I loved watching this video from start to finish! great job!!
Ahh, thank you Talonfish!
If you were ever to record a book on tape I would buy 37 copies!
Well, i've been doing a few voice over things here and there. Here is one: ua-cam.com/video/-hqvgGYKFjI/v-deo.html
I was also on a couple of podcasts such as ua-cam.com/video/D7wsFqoMpX4/v-deo.html and again in ua-cam.com/video/shcWGLT2c9g/v-deo.html
Maybe that will tide you over :)
Your CRRRRRRACKING UNBOXINGS are the best! Also your review of the 2 corners of the case was very informative.
enjoyed this video. very informative and honost.
Plusses against unboxing had me in stitches... hilarious! Again the knife skills... wow!
I'm the Bard and I'm going to eat this chicken.
Me: That sounds like the greatest chicken that ever got ate
God dam I love this guy
on that note my only criticism is you don't do enough videos. Just review anything, I don't care, we'll love it
What a GLORIOUS set of videos you have bestowed upon the world, good sir!
Tactical Conan Deployment Unit, don't know why they named it anything other than The Barbarian Box.
Love your schtick! Please make lots more videos! Voice, mannerisms, humor, all of it, never change a thing!
Hey Bard! $129 is way too much for that case!
Also, that pudge figure is sweet, from whence did you purchase it?
The wait for a new video was totally worth it for that knife trick in the beginning
Bro, your videos are the highlight of my day some days. We the people of the internet vote to have you narrate and unbox everything from now until the end of time. So say we all, lol. Btw, do you have a Twitter handle per chance?
Nay, I don't hold with twitter.
Well you have a new subscriber in myself. keep up the hilarity! Long live the beard & Bard :-)
Aye, grand! Though I do fear my beard will outlive the rest of me...
I really love your videos man. I could listen to you for hours. And I have. I went through all of your videos a couple of times. Please make more!
I rewatched the part where you throw the knife like 100 times
It was just nonchalant
As is the rest of me :)
"A cracking unboxing!" it's been so long I nearly "A crapped my boxers" I love the Bard's work, and could listen to his voice all day. you should absolutely reach out to do voice acting, but your video's are genuinely my favorite on UA-cam equally. I have impatiently awaited this video, and now I have my fix for a wee while.
tfw Christ has risen.
Finally, dude!
As someone who isn't very interested in figurines and board games I really want to commend you on your enthusiasm, You are awesome to listen to and I'll definitely be sticking around to see what's coming up.
Commendation accepted! New video coming soon (if all goes well). I hope you find it interesting too :)
heeey are you getting thinner? O.o
It took me a second to get that Soulstorm reference, but I spat my drink everywhere when it hit me.
I really enjoy your vids. You have such a glowing personality and passion for miniatures :D
Ahh the honor of being the first like!
How do you people get here so fast?
The trick is always being here.
When the Bard harkens, all hear and follow.
Post more videos and the answer will be true.
We never left.
Thanks for the new video! Always a blast watching the bard.
And the bard is back! thank you for awesome cracking unboxing and review!
Another cracking unboxing from the bard! I adore this channel!
Bard you are without doubt my instant favorite UA-camr of all time!
The best part about UA-cam? Cracking Bard videos. Please make more; you really make my day.
Good to see you back in action! please dont wait too long next time, you have just made my day with this at work.
Imagine the cosmic proportions of a board game played with this man...
Please please make more regular videos, they are extremely entertaining. You are a natural.
I don't collect or paint miniatures, and I don't play games involving figures, but I do enjoy a damn good and thorough review, like this one here.
You had my curiosity, but after witnessing that knife handling sorcery of the blackest nature, you had my attention!
Also, I adored the scene at 11:21. Actually burst out laughing, and drew stares from coworkers. That was wonderful :D
You guys take your miniatures every seriously. Respect.
I've needed the bard in my life for many a moon! Cheers to you good sir, may the best dwarven ale grace your gullet!
Another crrrrrracking video from the Bard! Your delivery and humor is, as always, top notch!
As always a mighty joy to watch and listen you crack-unbox things without actually cracking and only unboxing them. That knife throw was pretty epic :D
Glad you're back, Bard! I don't play any tabletop games but I really enjoy your content.
Always good to see something new from you Bard. You do a most excellent job of presenting your items; keep up the exemplary work. (And good use of the "MEHTAL BAWKES!" quote from Dawn of War).
I started watching for the figure and statue reviews but somehow you actually made a video talking about a carrying case entertaining and interesting. I wish you narrated audio books or a podcast or even just had so many more videos for the 11 years you've been on here.
Glad to have you back cracking unboxings
"Lovely noise. Like the forges of hope!" I love it.
Recently found this channel, absolutely love your work.
Sisters of Battle! A clear sign of brilliance.
Just recently I have taken notice to your vids and although I don't know anything in the way of miniatures, warhammer, or hero quest, I just love your presentation! Always entertaining, even now I can't help but proclaim "WHERE'S MY DWARF!?"
Only found out about you the other day. You are now one of my favourite youtubers.
Just wanted to say, I just started playing 40k, and when I did I used your toolbox idea to store and transport my own army. Works like a charm.
Grand! Glad to see the classic ideas still in use.
I've just discovered your channel today and am now binge-watching while I await your next video.
