Not sure how I missed this, before? I saw this ONCE at a Walmart by where I used to live, only in town due to family thing. Never saw it again. OG ESB Speeder was my go to vehicle for years, growing up. My Joes commandeered it and it was a staple in their adventures. Mom threw away the rear gun, cleaning off the table. The canopy disappeared for years, only to turn up randomly with only a crack. Flipped the windshield around, made it an escape pod. Back engine fell off, becoming a hover canoe. 😂 Finally went into storage in 2006, lost almost everything in there in 2008. Nowadays, I barely have room for figures, let alone vehicles. (Looks at WWE Slambulance, car, and now 4wheeler….)
I got the same toy years latter 5 to be exact the kid before me hated it but for a black kid in the hood that adored starswars i was in love been a fan ever since!
The sculpted details and paint applications make this look like a large scale painted model! WOW! A little sad no lights and sounds like from the old toy but glad to not have to deal with battery corrosion. Hasbro did an AMAZING job with this! Thanks for the review.
Hmm let's see, the Black Series Snowspeeder is 48cm while the "real" snowspeeder is 5.3m... so about 1-11. An AT-AT is 22.5m high, so it'd be... about 2m. Or 6.5 ft in freedom units. Get on it, Hasbro!
Make it a build a figure but not figure where like the foot comes with a deluxe figure, part of the leg with another That could lower the overall price
@Sod White Technically, US Customary Units are not Imperial. The Imperial system was created 30 years after the US adopted its units, which were based on the pre-Imperial British system. And then around the dawn of the 20th Century they were partially metrified, and again in 1960. So now they're a weird hodgepodge used in only one country. Pedantry FTW!
I think Anakin and Obi Wans jedi starfighters from episode 3 would be really cool in this line. And they’re not too big so i could see hasbro doing it.
My speeder is almost on his way. A clear stand with some snowcolored parts had been great. That the ship not only stands on the ground. I'm very excited for this thing. To have it in hands. Thanks for your great and funny review again.
Great review Robo! I must say you probably do the best unboxing out there, wherever I’m looking to get a figure I look at your review before getting it. You do a fine job sir!
Definitely getting one of these. The Empire Strikes Back is my favorite film of all the Star Wars movies and the Snowspeeder is my all time favorite Star Wars vehicle.
I absolutely love this vehicle. I had similar issues with. Canopy sticking on one side as well as the landing gear wanting to fold back in while I was messing with it in the landing position. But my diorama pictures turned out very well with this thing. I got it at a discount off of Game stops website. yeah it will take up shelf space. But it still a must have vehicle for the 6 inch line.
I love this toy, but I wish it had a flight stand. It is fine with it sitting on its landing gears, but would look better 3 or 4 inches off the ground. Thanks for the review Robo.
I have mine, haven’t opened it yet. Bought two, one sealed and one to display with my vintage At-At, it doesn’t scale well but it’s cool, I created a diorama, with cotton for snow, used my airbrush to touch up the cotton to make it look like some battle has gone on, and black snow for crash marks around the speeder, I bought a pre owned snow trooper with the canon, the Hoth play set and the imperial probe, you get the picture, it’s just fun to display, I’m probably going to sell the one I opened and just buy an original vintage one because it is a bit big for scaling. It’s a beautiful ship though one of my favorite.
I love your intros. You are of my favorite reviewers. You're always so wholesome and fun... and have great taste in shirts and have an awesome beard. I wanna be like you when I'm older
See if wish we could get more 6 inch scale vehicles like this. Not even only star wars but all types. Maybe a cop car, GCPD car, a little submarine for a solo character, stuff like that. Would be dope
Wanted to say thanks for the video! I wouldn't call myself a SW collector but I own a more recent X wing my daughter bought for me a few years back but I always wanted a nice snow speeder model. So, a friend of mine opened up his new Star Wars store and that's when I learned alllllll the different snow speeder versions made over the years, holy crap! It seems like my timing was perfect as this new speeder hit the market at the time I got serious about finding one. My friend hopes to buy these at half price in the near future but I don't think he'll be buying them that way.
The TIE fighter saw some discounts but I'm not sure if this will sit around like that one. Now that I think about it, I haven't seen this in a store. But definitely worth it, and watch out for the rabbit hole that is Star Wars collecting!
Got mine after a pre-order that many others passed on. Now im the envy of the galaxy. Absolutely an amazing piece. Not museum quality, but worth every penny.
My son and I had a blast with this thing. When I was a kid, the only Star Wars vehicle I owned was this. I played with my friends Star Wars stuff. So this has big time nostalgia points for me. The overall piece is a joy to behold. The detail is choice. I didn’t initially find the holding ports for the loose accessories. I just popped them in the cable compartment underneath. Those tabs are super tight. I feel I’m going to break them. This thing is so awesome! I’m giddy with possibility of an AT-ST that could be made in the $175 range around the 40th of Jedi. It had to be in their radar! I have a feeling I’m going to create rotating dioramas with these. I gave yet to compare that partial AT-AT foot diorama piece. I’m sure it’s slightly under scaled. So for 2020 I’m going to celebrate Hoth. I just need an E-WEB gun...
I never thought a single AT-AT leg could be a VERY cool way to display it! Just use some black bendy wire as tow hook cable and wrap around the leg and trail behind the speeder... Oh man I need to build that!!!
They already made (A Black series) AT-ST.. $34 New on Ebay. An it's way cheaper than the Crap Junk (much smaller) Mandalorian one. _"They could make one for $175" !!!!_ Huh? WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT..
Wow! You’ll probably never see this but you nailed this ship review! You showed all the great details I couldn’t see in other reviews!! I want one now...... but just can’t fit it anywhere..... hmmm ....
There have been a few Daks throughout the history of the line. What I'm wondering, however, is if Hasbro needs permission from the actors to create a scan of their face 30 years after the fact and use it. We all know that the stars of the movies signed their likeness away, but who knows if the bit characters did?
I customised my first order black series tie fighter, I have made it look like the empire tie fighters, it took some doing, especially the wings and getting rid of the Great Big round cog looking things, but after a lot of trial and error it's now done and painted in the proper grey colour. Looks good chasing my snow speeder across the living room ceiling.
Nice review. The Snow Speeder was always one of my favorites. I watched this to find out if the lasers light up like the original ESB Snow Speeder. Too bad they don't. That would've sold me on it 100%. Still lots of cool details.
Got mine in the mail today. The plastic feels cheeeeaaaap. It combines hollowness with a soft plastic I've only ever experienced with buying KO Transformers toys. I may end up sending it back.
love your reviews, as you describe the details, which is most appreciated, i did find that the tow cable hooks up to the side of the rear gun, just had to pull the knot and then the cup plugs in, I thought that was a cool detail
Got mine, I absolutely love it!! Got it hanging from the ceiling. At St will be the next one, personally I'd love it if they made a AT- AT, for the six inch scale. I'd buy.
I'd really like to see a black series version of the Bespin Cloud Car for 6 inch figures. Hey, throw in a Bespin guard and Lobot and I'd be super happy.
Can't wait!!! mine should be here soon :). I wish the figures could bend their knees and sit in actual "Seats" in the Snowspeeder, but they sit with their legs straight awkwardly like in Luke's Landspeeder. Oh well, at least both figures can fit, and this is a great product coming from Hasbro that you can tell they put a lot of passion into.
aaahhh the memories, i think i had three vehicles when i was a kid, That big troop carrier one i think, one that never appeared in the films, ASP-7 i think they called it? like a little orange vehicle, and the Snowspeeder, the only thing i wish this had is the sound and laser effects that the old one did. definitely getting this when ive got some money. And somewhere to put it.....
I don't like the new cut of the knees, Don't give me wrong it looks good but not that functional, but Dak is going to sit in the Snowspeeder so what am I talking about.
Is it a poor design though? It's really not a huge deal if a figure can't kick it's own ass even though it's been a running joke on here forever. Like we both said, we like the look and hopefully they take it case by case like they seem to be doing. Most Star Wars characters don't need to ninja kick and get a 4 point Spider-Man stance.
@@TheFwoosh I'm fine with it in cases like this or Count Dooku where the character has baggy pants and doesn't need to be extremely acrobatic anyway, but I think it's unacceptable to regress to single-jointed knees on figures like the upcoming clone and stormtrooper that have armor plates to hide the joints anyway and need more poseability. With armored characters (especially the clones), I think the double joints with the armor plate attached to the knee/elbow look better and more natural anyway, in addition to being more functional of course. My concern is that it doesn't seem like they are taking it case by case, it seems like they're trying to transition to that for every figure to cut costs (obviously you have more connections and know more people at Hasbro than I do, so please correct me if I'm wrong there). Out of the entire first wave with the new packaging, the only figures that don't have single-jointed knees are Darth Vader and Mando, because they reused existing legs for those figures. I'm fine with the single knees on Teebo and Ackbar, but if they're even giving armored characters like clones and stormtroopers single knees, I don't see where they would use double joints in the future. To my memory, Zeb is the only new mold revealed recently that actually has double knees, and he's been in production for a lot longer than the other figs to my understanding. My only hope is that they'll take the pinless tech they're starting to use on Legends and implement it into their Star Wars stuff and we'll get more double-joints with that.
theavengingewok the clone trooper could barely lift his leg because of the armor. what was one supposed to do with double knees if you couldn’t get him in a kneeling pose anyway? it was even worse for stormtroopers.
I wanna switch wedge's head onto the dak figure body for a update. Wish they would of gave us a clear stand to put it in flight mode.Reminds me of the 90s snowspeeder that had light up feat. and soundsWe need some sounds to our ships and figures hasbro. Lol putting on stickers i know alot of you don't like putting on decals but that was like ..pure satisfaction when you were finished man that was fun! Im a perfectionist so it was like 10 mins a sticker it seemed lol then if not placed correctly then sliding into place with your thumb lol but it was fun.
For the record, almost every single manufacturing quirk yours had, mine did too. Extra punch needed to replace the gun piece above the removable panel, landing gear sliding in on itself, canopy catching on one side, etc. None of which are deal breakers, but seems like those are design / batch issues, not one-off QC problems.
I don’t like the cheap foggy polyethylene windows, they’re a real downer. Should be clear. (Polypropylene.) The legs won’t stay locked out so it falls all the time. They only cover as many screws as it takes to prevent you opening it without breaking the covers off. The little grenade sticks plug in to the string. Theyre the explosive tow connectors. They blow a hole in the armor of the target and eject a pronged grappling claw inside. Luke had grey gloves and boots in Empire, the black was from his xwing suit. I miss the light up feature and sound fx from the original, which I took with me to school a lot and still have..
My thought is I would either mount it on the wall or have it hanging from the ceiling in a nose dive like it’s making a pass on some ATAT legs. Awesome Snowspeeder
Id hang it at an angle with some fishing wire like it looked when you said playday... maybe, that or find a way to put it on some stand directly on a wall at an angle also.
I dig it. Was kinda hoping the cockpit would have opened up and barked bee's at you but I will be okay with just the review on such an awesome toy. Am I the only one who is glad they didn't include an "authentic battle damaged Dak" complete with AT-AT foot THEY NEED TO DO THAT FOR THE NEXT ONE lol jk I would offer to help store your Tie Fighter lol looks like you'll be doing alot of hanging displays buddy. Cheers.
As someone who's so used to the LEGO ones: Feel like it needs more orange Like with the TIE Fighter though: Great we even have this in Black Series *at all!*
how about a coffee table that's a glass top and wooden legs carved as AT-AT legs, on a white platform that resembles snow and the snowspeeder going around the legs with heavy guage wire to keep it suspended.
Just got this thing. Wow. Now I wonder if Hasbro will take a crack at a scaled-up Scoutwalker for 6" figures when it comes to the ROTJ 40th in 2023? I'm clearing off some space.
If I can match that exact color, i think I can fix the battle damage sections, Yeah i know many wont agree but, i just paid alot of money for it so I'll do what I want and if i mess it up it doesn't cost anyone but me...lol
According to DK book the Ultimate Guide to Star Wars. Luke was reaching for a spare harpoon gun before the AT-AT walker crushed the snowspeeder in the Empire Strikes Back.
Not sure how I missed this, before?
I saw this ONCE at a Walmart by where I used to live, only in town due to family thing. Never saw it again.
OG ESB Speeder was my go to vehicle for years, growing up. My Joes commandeered it and it was a staple in their adventures.

Yeah, happy memories opening the Kenner Millennium Falcon one Christmas in the 80s 🙂. This looks great too.
Oh man, looking up at my parents wondering if they got batteries too, only to see them holding a stack of various sizes.
@@TheFwoosh Golden days, Robo. Golden days.
I still have a pic of me with my pop under the tree with a fully assembled ESB kenner falcon circa 1982.
@@RandomStuffGarage619 brilliant, Christopher. I got a lot of play out of that toy. And the Kenner Snowspeeder, with the light-up canons 🙂.
I got the same toy years latter 5 to be exact the kid before me hated it but for a black kid in the hood that adored starswars i was in love been a fan ever since!

@Luke Skywalker99 and with haslab it is not * completely * out of the question!
@Luke Skywalker99 the 4” figure scaled AT-AT is $500. It’d probably be more like $950

I still would like to see an A-wing or Y-wing in this scale. I’d even take those Hoth and Jedi vehicles Kenner made that weren’t even in the movies.
Oh wow, this one looks great! Tons of detail and HUGE!!!!😁
Congratulations 👍😁
Mine is on its way, expected delivery date July 15th! Exactly a month after my birthday. Worth the wait!
I have been waiting for this review from you since the announcement of this snowspeeder. You just sold it for me.
I am totally getting it!!

Got mine after a pre-order that many others passed on. Now im the envy of the galaxy.

I wonder if John Morton, who hasn't acted since 1980, knows he has an action figure.

We all know that the stars of the movies signed their likeness away, but who knows if the bit characters did?
I'm sure Lucas had all of that covered, I've never heard of any likeness rights issues with Star Wars.
The Fwoosh they exist with some females in the cantina.
Absolutely knows when he gets his royalty checks.
The Fwoosh I agree
Fishing line from the ceiling! Love you ROBO!

Putting it on a snow diorama and having it be its own piece would be super slick.

Unboxed mine last night and really digging it. Hope to get more vehicles in the black series.
they should make the phantom from rebels, it's the perfect size for this line, not too big, not too small
First i was like what are you smoking that ship is massive. Then i realized you mean Phantom not Ghost. Im idiot i know
Love your videos. I got this also for $119.99 on Amazon last year. So worth the money, and now it's even more expensive there.
love your reviews, as you describe the details, which is most appreciated, i did find that the tow cable hooks up to the side of the rear gun, just had to pull the knot and then the cup plugs in, I thought that was a cool detail
Got mine, I absolutely love it!!
Got it hanging from the ceiling.
At St will be the next one, personally I'd love it if they made a AT- AT, for the six inch scale. I'd buy.
A good haslab project would be The Ghost for the Rebels Crew.
I'd really like to see a black series version of the Bespin Cloud Car for 6 inch figures. Hey, throw in a Bespin guard and Lobot and I'd be super happy.

Electronics would have probably doubled the cost. I am good with the choice of keeping cost down.
as a kid i open the millennium falcon it was huge. when i see 1 today it looks small. this is a beast i just got 1 lol
Beautiful. I had the original one when I was a kid.
I got a 6” Luke Skywalker to complete mine.. it’s awesome!

Never really thought I'd want a 6" vehicle, but dang that is kewl.

I remember the 1st x wing falcon at xmas those were the best shops of the time
Hopefully my next purchase. 🙏
Great review video and that snowspeeder looks amazing
Has anyone noticed that the seatbelt for the rear passenger isn't long enough to fasten OVER the body of the figure?
For the record, almost every single manufacturing quirk yours had, mine did too. Extra punch needed to replace the gun piece above the removable panel, landing gear sliding in on itself, canopy catching on one side, etc. None of which are deal breakers, but seems like those are design / batch issues, not one-off QC problems.
Love your reviews. I get mine tomorrow.
Looks absolutely awesome! Another great review.
The intro is so good
Great review, Robo! Damn this is cool!
Ive never actually seen the tie fighter before and man. That thing is CHONKY
Now all we need is a black series At-AT to go with it.😂
My blaster canons do not stay in at all, very loose - I put a little tacky putty into the holes and it seems to be doing the trick
If/when I get it, I am going to use some command strips on the landing gear and stick it right on the wall.
Looking forward to getting one when I can. I still have the original version from 1980 but it's in a sad condition.

They blow a hole in the armor of the target and eject a pronged grappling claw inside. Luke had grey gloves and boots in Empire, the black was from his xwing suit. I miss the light up feature and sound fx from the original, which I took with me to school a lot and still have..
My thought is I would either mount it on the wall or have it hanging from the ceiling in a nose dive like it’s making a pass on some ATAT legs. Awesome Snowspeeder
Looking forward to a Black Series Millenium Falcon. I wonder if they'll manage to fit the name on the side of the box?
Same. Don't see why they wouldn't make one. Would have to light up the thrusters. Would be an instant sell out
I want one now, I don't have space or the money really for it. I want it though..... great review sir
I think this is one you'll need to suspend in the air above your shelf. It's efficient in terms of vertical space, but not horizontal space
Self tapping hooks and fishing line! Its how I had my BMF up. Just make sure you hit studs!!! (My falcon didnt fall, I moved to a new house lol)
Who want to look at the bottom of it though.......
@@latestred6510 angle it downwards a bit
@@latestred6510 yeah you hang it tilted like its banking. I did it with my BMF falcon it looked awesome.
Id hang it at an angle with some fishing wire like it looked when you said playday... maybe, that or find a way to put it on some stand directly on a wall at an angle also.
Nice. If i ever... i’d mount it on my wall like a shield
OH MAN THAT INTRO HAD ME LMFAO! That Wampa sound was brilliant!
A MUST HAVE!! ill worry about a place later. thx!
I dig it. Was kinda hoping the cockpit would have opened up and barked bee's at you but I will be okay with just the review on such an awesome toy.
Am I the only one who is glad they didn't include an "authentic battle damaged Dak" complete with AT-AT foot THEY NEED TO DO THAT FOR THE NEXT ONE lol jk
I would offer to help store your Tie Fighter lol looks like you'll be doing alot of hanging displays buddy. Cheers.
As someone who's so used to the LEGO ones: Feel like it needs more orange
Like with the TIE Fighter though: Great we even have this in Black Series *at all!*
"Oh Sh#t Bars!!!!" .....thought I was only one to use that....thanks for the hard laugh....needed it....
You had me at the "Oh sh*t Bars!" LOL! Instant Subscribe!
You got the backwards ZZ nice!
If only it had storage for weapons. Other than that great toy! Can't wait to have mine.
i would LOVEE a Falcon for my 6 inch SW figs w/ enough space in the cockpit to fit Han, Chewie luke & leia
I hope you have an entire garage you could dedicate to a 1:12 scale falcon.
But I'm with you! If they did it, I would figure it out!!!
how about a coffee table that's a glass top and wooden legs carved as AT-AT legs, on a white platform that resembles snow and the snowspeeder going around the legs with heavy guage wire to keep it suspended.
I think it should have had a sound feature included
For that $120 Price, Yup!
That was my feeling too. I love it, but it could really benefit from some lights and sounds.
Just got this thing. Wow. Now I wonder if Hasbro will take a crack at a scaled-up Scoutwalker for 6" figures when it comes to the ROTJ 40th in 2023? I'm clearing off some space.
Robo, i just got my snow speeder & i love it. One thing, i want to paint the red stripes on. What paint & brush should i use?
“Oh shit bars”. Amazing 😂
The Snowspeeder is my favourite Star Wars ship ever so I think I need this!...but where will I put it?...
That tie fighter is ridiculous huge lol. I'm still waiting on one of these to drop in price
They were giving the TIE Fighter away a couple years ago. Too bad it was the ST one.
Interesting side note: ‘Oh Shit! Bars’ was my nickname in highschool
If I can match that exact color, i think I can fix the battle damage sections, Yeah i know many wont agree but, i just paid alot of money for it so I'll do what I want and if i mess it up it doesn't cost anyone but me...lol
Looks like an upscaled version of the 3 quarter inch one I had as a kid
I didn't even know they made this. I have the Black Series Tie Fighter, this is next.
Mount it on the wall, space problem somewhat solved? Thing is way bigger than I expected when you had it in hand!
That's where I'm going with it but then it's going to stick out quite a bit. Still tinkering.
I can't wait for the same scale AT-AT imperial walker...
According to DK book the Ultimate Guide to Star Wars. Luke was reaching for a spare harpoon gun before the AT-AT walker crushed the snowspeeder in the Empire Strikes Back.
