I really want light side Episode III Anakin but that’s going for like $800 on the aftermarket. Might end up picking this guy up because it looks freaking awesome too. Just would be slightly inaccurate alongside my Phase 2 clones. Edit: I did end up getting this figure and I am so glad I did. Amazing shelf presence and looks great next to my clones even if it’s not 100% accurate.
Got mine this past Saturday and he's an awesome figure. It took a little patience getting him just right on the STAP, but well worth it. Got to borrow one or two of your poses, they are marvelous!!! Bring on more Clone Wars figures please Hot Toys.
Ordered the normal version after debating it for a few months, and Anakin is without a doubt my favorite. I missed the ROTS light side and dark side. I wasn't gonna miss this one by any means, cause this is the fun begins with collecting hot toys.
Hey Ryan! You know I preordered the STAP version but decided to cancel and get the standard one instead. I knew I'd never use the STAP so figured I save the money. I agree, this is one cool Anakin figure. I have the dark side Anakin (he was the second Hot Toys figure I purchased) but I really like this one. I think it's the shorter hair. Can't wait to get mine.
Planning to grab STAP Anakin. Would probably choose dark side Anakin of the three if all things were equal but the poseability of this one is undeniable It will be my first Anakin
I am getting this figure because of this video so thank you. I am a huge fan of your channel. I finally finished installing the detof ikea shelves and the lighting. My first figure I displayed was iron man mark 85 end games and it looks phenomenal. I have 21 sideshow figures never opened and now after 3 years collecting here comes the fun. I just completed a dedicated home theater and the collection display is the showcase people want to see. Jedha you are the man.
We really need Clone Wars Kenobi to go with this and the clones! Can't wait to get this. Next to snowspeeder Luke, my most anticipated figure. I wish the on/off switch for the STAP was external, to make it easier to flip the switch. Great review as always. Thanks.
I'm definitely gonna have to get this. I once saw ROTS dark side Anakin in a shop like a month before I started collecting Hot Toys. I went back to the shop hoping it was still there but unfortunately it wasn't. Also hoping we get 20th Anniversary AOTC Anakin.
I decided to go with this anakin as the light side one is so expensive and I’ve already got a hasbro ultimate villain anakin so having this one means he looks more varied!
Anakin's "Clone Wars" battle garb is one of my favourite SW outfits ever. Hope to see him in action with it in the Obi-Wan series (Which I believe we might because of the release of this figure)
Stitching on center left “lapel” is looking rather odd on your copy. Not shown on the prototype or pre-order pictures..? Could’ve made it a bit more subtle, maybe used another color on the lining. Otherwise a cool figure. Great review, Ryan.
I ordered this from Sideshow because I had a large number of reward points, only $250 all in. May take forever to arrive but will be fun to display next to my other STAP w/ battle droid.
what a great review, I know you collect mainly star wars (and rightfully make the posing sections of those reveries more extended than others) but i’d really love these in depth posing videos with other properties. you’ve convinced me to buy this figure!
Find the costume detail a little bland on this Anakin. I'll stick with lightside probably. Lightside also just goes better with Rex and Ahsoka cause that's what he wore in season 7. But like many say, great option if you have no Anakin
yep, lightside works for any display-can be posed with Obi-Wan fighting Dooku, against Obi-Wan, or in a Clone Wars display. If a collector can have only one Anakin, that's the one to have.
will probebly have to pick this Anakin up since they're giving us so many 501st troopers and I'll need a Jedi to lead them and this Anakin will be it since I was to late tot the party for the light/dark side Anakin
I have not because of graduation obligations for my 18 year old. But After Memorial weekend, it's on! This, Jango, Pilot Luke and Moff Gideon for sure✨✨✨✨🙌🏽
In hand, this is an amazing figure, photos just do not do it justice. I was really unsure - but because of the Kenobi CW - I took the plunge. It’s amazing.
I wonder if they are going to sell the Stab by itself so we can buy it for the droids that way we can have 2 to 3 flying at the same time against troopers in the ground. Awesome display Tnx for the video.
I want this but I’m not sure if I’ll get it or not. As much as I like it there are other figures coming I’d like to get that I may opt to pick up over this. I have the light side Episode III version and am happy having it to represent the character.
I think you have the better anakin and it seems hot toys is mainly focused on season 7 appearances for clone wars so you have the most accurate option available.
Not even close,this figure is magnificient and i can't wait for sideshow to release it but as a big fan of Anakin,i have the other two hot toys version from the revenge of the sith and they are pretty much perfection.Dark Side Anakin is a holy grail
I wish you got a better General Grievous. Cuz as I said before my general compose almost any way and he can hold all four arms up by himself and stay in that position. But I do cheat a little bit I do add a little Museum putty I put it in the holes to make it even tighter and his stand that he came with absolutely sucks so I bought a dynamic stand for him just those two things alone makes a huge difference and they're really cheap you can get both things for under 20 bucks if you're interested then you'd really be able to pose Grievous and some really dynamic poses.
Yes, that's the ONLY thing stopping me from making this my first Star Wars figure.Thanks for making me not feel crazy - you're the only other person I've seen mention this.
I did have the Sideshow version. Can't remember if the base had more of a pose able function than this. The engines are a nice upgrade. Anyway its being sent as i went for the poncho version.
@darkconcept. They already announced the Ahsoka series version of Clone Wars Anakin Skywalker not the animated version of Hot Toys Clone Wars Anakin Skywalker.
Revenge of the Sith Anakin will always be my favorite but this figure is awesome!!! I unfortunately had to cancel mine. :( I definitely prefer the realistic look for the Clone Wars figures over the animated look. That way you can post them with the movie figures and it won't look wonky. But I think it's really cool that Sideshow is doing the animated figures as well I prefer hot toys doing this but if not I'd like Sideshow to do a Clone Wars Darth Maul with the Mother Talzin mechanical legs. That'd probably be the only animated style figure I'd get. And I really want Hot Toys to make both Anakin and Obi Wan Padawan figures.
Hi, I just ordered mine and it’s supposed to ship right the next day. Do you happen to know how much does it take to arrive in the US? I’m from Houston btw
Got mine just a little while ago! Though I got the non STAP version because I don't have the space for it unfortunately. That being said the main goal was Anakin himself and he does not disappoint! Absolutely love him! Got him through pop collectibles using your discount code so thank you for that and the review!
Am I the only one who doesn’t care about the stap vehicle I saw it in person at celebration and don’t really think it needs it rather buy the speeder bike
@@Gardi93 More like shapeless looking, the cloth is not that well-tailored to accentuate the shape of his body; the ROTS version felt very similar in this regard...

How did you get yours? I got mine on sideshow and it hasn’t even shipped yet
@@samhack3260 I bought mine from Toys Buying Agent, which shipped the day after release.

totally understand. the STAP definitely takes up a log of room as well
Planning to grab STAP Anakin. Would probably choose dark side Anakin of the three if all things were equal but the poseability of this one is undeniable
It will be my first Anakin
I couldn't stop laughing when seeing the 2 battle droids on the vehicle at 14:20 Great poses not only with the droids but also with Anakin and Rex.

I passed on the STAP,just got the figure with poncho. Really hoping we will get General Kenobi too.
He's a good looking figure and an easy buy if you haven't got an Anakin,but I have the darkside version which I prefer out of the 3 versions.

Ordered this (2nd batch) and can't wait for it... but I got the Anakin only version (no stap and no poncho). Will look amazing with Rex and Ahsoka.

I am getting this version of CW Anakin with STAP. Waiting for it to come home. Thanks for the review, a lot of good info
will probebly have to pick this Anakin up since they're giving us so many 501st troopers and I'll need a Jedi to lead them and this Anakin will be it since I was to late tot the party for the light/dark side Anakin
Hey Ryan, just got this in the mail today. It’s my first Hottoys figure and I am stunned. It’s so awesome.
I’m displaying an akin by himself, the STAP is off to the side waiting on a tan battledroid.
I came here and skip the unboxing part, just went right at 12:09 to see some sick poses! cant wait to get him and put it with my clones!
I have not because of graduation obligations for my 18 year old. But After Memorial weekend, it's on! This, Jango, Pilot Luke and Moff Gideon for sure✨✨✨✨🙌🏽
In hand, this is an amazing figure, photos just do not do it justice. I was really unsure - but because of the Kenobi CW - I took the plunge. It’s amazing.
I am waiting on my figure to be shipped out to me. Really excited to add this to my Clone Wars display.
I wonder if they are going to sell the Stab by itself so we can buy it for the droids that way we can have 2 to 3 flying at the same time against troopers in the ground. Awesome display Tnx for the video.
Do you know if there is anyway to wire the STAP up?
Ordered Anakin, no STAP. My first hot toys figure, very excited.
Awesome!!!!! How tall is anakin on stap?
Excellent posing my man! Nice looking figure.
Wish the blue was bit darker/more muted but overall looks great. Gonna be a hard wait.
I have ordered it, and it shipped today! No STAP. Very excited to have an Anakin. This will round out my collection. Just waiting on Vaughn now.
Where did you order from? Ordered on sideshow and it hasn’t shipped

With the cape. it kinda resembles the classic darth vader outfit.
Ordered it and waiting. Arrival is May-July. Hope sideshow ships it on time.
Does the stitching on one side of the tunic chest bother anyone else?? Otherwise, awesome review and figure!
Yes, that's the ONLY thing stopping me from making this my first Star Wars figure.Thanks for making me not feel crazy - you're the only other person I've seen mention this.
The padding gives him a dad body.
I was never getting it originally but now I’m contemplating buying it just for the STAP with the announcement we’re getting the B1 battle droid.
I think we'll see a STAP/Droid set in the future.
@@JedhaPatrol that would be great. I hate buying figures/figure sets just for an accessory.
I did have the Sideshow version. Can't remember if the base had more of a pose able function than this. The engines are a nice upgrade. Anyway its being sent as i went for the poncho version.
New artisan looks insane! Only rooted hair tends to degrade overtime…
I'm going to get this Anakin Skywalker with Stap and then replace this head with the animated head sculpt with 3D printing.
or wait a month to get the official one...
@@darkconcept. good options
@darkconcept. They already announced the Ahsoka series version of Clone Wars Anakin Skywalker not the animated version of Hot Toys Clone Wars Anakin Skywalker.
Please share what kind battery use for stab 😇
I've got the figure (minus STAP) preordered. I hope they ship mine soon.
Revenge of the Sith Anakin will always be my favorite but this figure is awesome!!!

I may grab him to make a custom “what if “ darth Vader haha just gotta track down a dark side anakin head
I have to be more picky with my purchases moving forward but I think this is a must. Hopefully the deluxe won’t sell out anytime soon
Does the caped Shoulderplate fit on the Revenge of the Sith Anakin robed body?
Great video. Been waiting on your unboxing. Ended up pulling the trigger on him this morning. No stap though for me. Now we wait until he arrives. 😀
Hope you enjoy it!
If I pick it up it’ll be Non Stap version. No space. I am waiting though for Kenobi to see what may come from it
Honestly I think this is the best Anakin hot toys.
Got mine from sideshow, going to ship very soon, might return and swap for the stap version because holy shit I love that pose
Debating to buy the STAP version or not because it may not fit in detolf.
Can he be displayed without any armor at all? No one shows it.
I am suppose to get Anakin soon. I can’t wait. Thanks for the review.😁🌷🌷🌸
Damn you, I was thinking of skipping on the droids. After seeing them on the STAP it’s a game changer.
This is one I think will need to be purchased.
i'm just missing Obi-wan but it's 800 usd in the secondary market
Great vid man.
Your Ahsoka has crossed eyes ;D
Got mine on po. Getting anakin only.
Not the poncho option pose? Have to test that myself I guess . Pre ordered him without the stap 😋
Ordered and paid in full since last year and still SS hasn’t shipped it to me yet 😞
Once again another great video from Ryan and what a great figure
I wonder if the clothes can be remove without cutting a thing. I want to remove the fatsuit from mine
Pre orderd from sideshow can’t wait
How do you get your pre orders so fast?
Go to the description he has links to where you can get releases earlier.
Awesome figure and awesome poses dude!
Thanks a bunch!
PO last year from a local shop and DYING for it to come in 😩 I do however dislike the lightsaber color
I definitely thought the fight scene villain was going to be Deadpool on the STAP.
Mine was shipped out from sideshow late last week so ready for it my 501st will have there general now need ashoka to come in
Hi, I just ordered mine and it’s supposed to ship right the next day. Do you happen to know how much does it take to arrive in the US? I’m from Houston btw
Have this one ordered. No stap though (don’t have the space)
right on!
Still prefer his revenge of the sith version
Best reviews. IMHO
Got mine just a little while ago! Though I got the non STAP version because I don't have the space for it unfortunately. That being said the main goal was Anakin himself and he does not disappoint! Absolutely love him! Got him through pop collectibles using your discount code so thank you for that and the review!
Am I the only one who doesn’t care about the stap vehicle I saw it in person at celebration and don’t really think it needs it rather buy the speeder bike
Pass, Darkside for me
Nice
Is this animated?
Nope
I only collect Marvel Hot Toys!? 😱
Why have they not done an Obi for the animated series? So dumb
Great review as always Jedha
Kenobi...where are you
cue in Celine Dion
hahaha
What up bro
He looks fat…. I hope mine doesn’t look as fat 🤣🤣🤣
Man I thought I was the only one who thought this. Everyone seems to really like this guy but I feel the tailoring makes him look thiccc…
@@Gardi93 More like shapeless looking, the cloth is not that well-tailored to accentuate the shape of his body; the ROTS version felt very similar in this regard...
First clone wars not bought, horrible horrible sculpt
