This makes me want to see Bobba Fett season 2 and 3, to learn and see more of Krss, Boba and crew. I dont understand the hate for the series, its fun and entertaining!
there are comic books about the character that dive a lot more into his story. The actor who played Krss has also shared how he read the comics to prepare for the role. The show while fun and entertaining, didn't perform as well as expected. Numbers-wise, it didn't do as great as it should have. You have to remember legend material on Boba Fett is heavy, and while incorporating things and you have fun moments, it's not enough to carry the character in a meaningful way. The flashback scenes while great, failed to move the story forward in a meaningful way. The Mandalorian episode took away from his story among other things. I think it's fair to say you enjoyed the show but it's more than just people hating it for no reason, though there is a portion of folks who do go out of their way to talk down anything that is produced by Disney or Star Wars. Temuera has also shared that he wanted more for his character than what the got.
Loved the review, BB! $40 is pricey but you do get a lot of accessories. I didn't know you get a drink mug with the fig. Now I'm on the fence about getting him. It wouldn't necessarily be 'canon' but he would display great with that mug in the Nevarro Cantina.
@@BossksBounty I’m picturing him either eating one, or being tossed one (or both) from a street vendor during the aftermath of the Rancor battle. It’s vague… my memory is not what it used to be. I’m sure someone will straighten us out in here. 😂
Mine arrived yesterday. I opened the box, but didn't have time to play with it. So its good to see you have it in a few poses here. It really is quite beautiful. This is plastic-free packaging done right IMO. I opened the little box with all the small accessories and they popped out and spilled! Thankfully nothing was lost.
Not interested in the figure itself, but for the scale… it is once again impressive that the team can be given all the time and funding to craft such a thing like a great looking and poseable Wookiee. And yes, it also makes me wish for a proper resculpted Chewie or even Chieftain Tarfful with a new body from the ground-up.
The extra accessories in this set are specific to the comics iirc, so this figure can pull double duty and work as both the comic and live action appearances
Great Figure/ Review!. My Copy of This Is on the way & Watching Your Review of This has me Quite Excited for it to arrive!. Definitely a Banger for the Collection. Great Accessories, Really like the Headsculpt for this one too. Thanks again for sharing this. Cheers 🍻 👍👊🔥
Cant wait to get One... i`ll buy the Standard Version, always on a small Budget but yes...Wookies are my Favourite Star Wars Aliens and i need a Krrsantan for sure. Hope he is on Sale someday, it is also a great Base Costum Figure. Finally a Wookie with all thet good Articulation, especially Hips/Legs.
Thanks, BB. Mine arrived today too. The display is beautifully done. I think this one will stay in its box, the regular deluxe one will be my opener. Cheers, ma man! 👍🏻
Great review Tim! Looking forward to getting this figure in the mail tomorrow. I noticed that you are not assembling the bowcaster correctly. The added part actually goes above where you slotted it in. You have to squeeze it in through the top of the bowcaster, but you'll find it sits in there quite well.
Two things: I may be in the minority, but I like a lot of the plastic-less boxes, especially the GI Joe Classified series. Having the figure in an action shot seems to be a better sell and looks a lot better, at least for me. Lastly, I wish they would have kept Black in the name to stick with comic canon and I feel it adds a more menacing identity.
I was a bit sceptical about this when I saw the price. But when I opened mine today and posed him with all the accessories I had a great time. A really beautiful figure. It does make me less excited about the upcoming deluxe version of him...
Just got both of mine today. Quite the presentation it came in. Love it. Not crazy about the price, but Wookiees are the best so I couldn't pass it up. Accessories are awesome. Love his mug, he must have a keg for a liver.
Still a little lack luster for a SDCC compared to yesteryear! However, good to see that people are able to pickup the item without having to attend the con. It’s on its way to most in the US via Hasbro Pulse
It's a beautiful looking figure and I'm looking forward to the regular release but forty quid is way beyond what I'm willing to pay for a nice headsculpt, four extra accessories I'll never use, and a pretty box to put in my loft and never see again. These'll probably be on clearance before long if the Emperor's Throne Room is any indication though
just a suggestion, if you have 2 Krrsantan (1 being in the deluxe main line), you may want to display the other Krrsantan with Dr. Aphra and her droids since he's part of the crew in the comics! the extra accessories included with this Krrsantan apart from the deluxe version are all his weapons in the comics too.
I got mine and it didn’t have that black sticker. It is just the standard choking hazard warning box that are on all of these things usually. Perhaps the sticker was applied on certain regional shipments.
I received mine this morning and I'm not sure exactly why, maybe the dimensions of the box along with the design? But I got a massive nostalgia hit just holding it in my hand, took me right back to receiving one of the many mini-rigs as a kid. It was powerful!
Wowee!! I love him!! Totally agree about the price though! Hahaha! I am awaiting the regular one!! It would be nice if instead of the 2 heads, they made the jaw able to be opened. ad closed (talking, biting, yelling). thanks for the awesome update! Blessings! :)
I only bought one of these, so I think I’ll keep it mint in box for a while, or at least until I see the other upcoming TVC Krrsantan to compare. It does look pretty awesome. But to me, the biggest surprise was seeing actual paint apps on the weapons/accessories. What a shock that is not seeing plain gray/black plastic with no detail and rubbery worthless junk. I guess for a SDCC exclusive Hasbro had no choice but to actually put a few colors of paint on the weapons to justify the 500% markup….🤨
Interesting that Pulse Uk have taken away all the images (except 1) of the normal deluxe ? Maybe to make it look like he only comes with the knuckle dusters, so you buy the more expensive one ?? I'm sticking with the normal deluxe as I like the face better and it's cheaper.
This head is way better than the standard one looks. I know these SDCC packs sometimes make it to EB Games here in Canada, so I'll have a look for this version. Hopefully hes as easy to come by as the Rescue set 😅
@@BossksBounty We call them Brass Knuckles. Even though these aren't made of brass, it's become the universal term. I love differences between the languages, even though they are 99.9% the same. Makes life that much more enjoyable.
Looking forward to getting him. The basic one will be good enough for me. A lot of these new figures look amazing but I dont think they all need that articulation at the chest. It really screws up the look of the figures. I recently got the new phase 2 clone and I gotta say he looks totally wonky. The helmet isn't great, but torso seems weird. Same with the new Han figure. They can same money and make a better figure by just leaving the torso one peice. That's my opinion. I also hate the rocker ankles. They just don't work with these figures because they're size. I much rather be able to put them on a display stand
A new Chewie is quickly ascending my most-wanted list. I'm starting to be of the opinion that him and 3PO should be discussed in the same breath as the ANH four. Maybe once we get the main four we can start really demanding the """Androids"""
If I knew this fig was coming out I would’ve passed on the closed mouth Krrsantan for sure. Krrsantan is a pretty imposing Wook wether his mouth is closed or with his canines flashing.
Awesome figure and character. I'm going on a hunger strike until we get a new Chewie, just kidding i love food too much but i really want a new Chewie.
Much preffer this head sculpt looks heaps better with open mouth!! But his supposed to be taller than Chewie!! His 8ft & Chewie is 7.2ft tall so they should of made him a bigger figure. Still looks great his awesome! Would love a comparison with the black series version that figure was terrible!! 😂
I keep reading that they went off the heights in live action entertainment. Peter Mayhew is apparently 6” taller than BKs suit actor. I think they should go by “canon heights” too though but I get it
$40 is a LOT, as cool as this figure is and I'll probably end up buying it, I can't help but think how high they'll continue to go. As a Lego and TVS consumer, the "extra" accessories to me don't justify such a price increase.
Nice figure - but hasbro lost the plot with the price, £39.99 plus shipping is just crazy, I wonder if this will be another emperors throne room exclusive that you can still get from hasbro 3 years later!! Question for next week, what is happening with VC271? Why is it missing and any ideas on what it might be??
Now we need Chewie, Tarfful and other Wookie warriors lol

No reason why he can't have turned up at some point at nevarro.
That's where I'm putting mine. And why not
Wow that roaring sculpt is absolute amazing
2:36 Meiloorun, maybe? Looks like the fruit from the snipe hunt episode of Rebels. Bomb part escapes me though.
Didnt one glow up in Book of Boba Fett? Or am I imaging that? lol

What a fantastic looking figure! And the box is really cool looking great review Bossk keep up the great videos
Great review Tim, I’ll be passing up on it mainly due to the price but I can’t deny it’s greatly sculpted and looks awesome!
He's very cool, I like the roaring head but I might still just get the standard version
Can't wait to get mine now, tomorrow apparently. I agree though, since they did this well theres no excuse for not getting an updated Chewbacca.

Now we need the twins.....😰

I can't believe I had mine before you did! lol Thanks for the video!
What's he like height wise compared to Wookiee warriors, Tarful and meru meru??
Should be getting mine tomorrow. Another great review!
Thank you!

Are there TVC Dr. Aphra and her droids? O:
@@anakincrespin yes! they were offered as a SDCC 2018 3-pack. soon after that, a single Dr.Aphra in TVC were released.
Awe, shucks! Sorry mine got held up in the Post. 😬 Great review as always!!
Knuckle dusters 😂😂
It's definitely super deluxe, he's very nice, think I might get the standard but yeah , like this
Hi BB nice video as always 👍👍👍
Excellent review Tim. Easy pass for me, the exclusive extras aren't worth it for me. Looking forward to the "standard" deluxe release. Cheers
I got mine and it didn’t have that black sticker. It is just the standard choking hazard warning box that are on all of these things usually. Perhaps the sticker was applied on certain regional shipments.
yeah, UK stock often covered the warning on TVC 1.0. Mystery solved, thanks
I received mine this morning and I'm not sure exactly why, maybe the dimensions of the box along with the design? But I got a massive nostalgia hit just holding it in my hand, took me right back to receiving one of the many mini-rigs as a kid. It was powerful!
Hey Tim when are we getting the basic retail Krrysantan ? or that's it $40 may be too high for some of us, but still as always great review.
Towards the end of the year
I got a email notification that Hasbro was selling them on their site, picked up the limit of 2
I think the box is too big, but still awesome for a great figure hehe 😂
Wowee!! I love him!! Totally agree about the price though! Hahaha! I am awaiting the regular one!! It would be nice if instead of the 2 heads, they made the jaw able to be opened. ad closed (talking, biting, yelling). thanks for the awesome update! Blessings! :)

We live in the era of the $40 1/18 scale mass produced Hasbro figure. Looks cool though, but I’m priced out of this one.
This head is way better than the standard one looks. I know these SDCC packs sometimes make it to EB Games here in Canada, so I'll have a look for this version. Hopefully hes as easy to come by as the Rescue set 😅
New British term of the day - knuckle duster 😂

Yes but Rocker Ankles isnt the cause of shallow peg holes. Plenty of figures exist that dont have rocker ankles that still have shallow peg holes
I would rather have a card instead of the box. The box is basically a marketing device to try to justify the higher price. But it does look great.

Something tells me I’m gonna see this one graded in another custom acrylic case…..🤤
Like the Emperor’s Throne set they’ve done it again. Put the better head on the exclusive figure!! So frustrating.
You can still get the Emperor's throne all over the place on clearance prices, so I'm gonna wait for a little while for this
@@GutPuppetI did. And I’ll wait again!
Will Hasbro EVER make the Vintage Collection Millennium Falcon available again? They always sold out quick and I never got one.
Awesome figure and character. I'm going on a hunger strike until we get a new Chewie, just kidding i love food too much but i really want a new Chewie.

yea, that's what I thought when I saw this. He's out of scale, definitely supposed to be taller than Chewbacca
I keep reading that they went off the heights in live action entertainment. Peter Mayhew is apparently 6” taller than BKs suit actor. I think they should go by “canon heights” too though but I get it
Peter Mayhew was 7' 2" and Carey Jones is 6' 7".
I have one and another on the way
So the head barely moves and the bow caster is that relic from the past? Man, you can’t make this up..
$40 is a LOT, as cool as this figure is and I'll probably end up buying it, I can't help but think how high they'll continue to go. As a Lego and TVS consumer, the "extra" accessories to me don't justify such a price increase.
Do he suppose to have a scar on his head?
he should!
Newkle dusta 😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nice figure - but hasbro lost the plot with the price, £39.99 plus shipping is just crazy, I wonder if this will be another emperors throne room exclusive that you can still get from hasbro 3 years later!!

The men in black blaster is his weapon from the comics that he uses against Obi-Wan Kenobi when Obi-Wan gives him the eye scar 😎🤓
