hey guys me hosting was all thank you very much junior look what i got it's darth maul this is
the apprentice darth maul i have been waiting so long to review this video i am so happy to finally
have it in hand guys it's that topless darth maul how many times over the last couple of years have
i said to you i would love a darth maul like you see in like clone wars with the talk with
with your topless with all the tats and stuff under all the black whining and things would be
so cool and they finally gave us it this is known as the sith apprentice darth maul based on his
appearance in the sith apprentice and i believe they more based on the dark horse side of comics
from that artwork on the front that seems more in keeping with the dark horse comics and marvel um
but yes look how cool this figure is i'm so happy to have it guys and again this is part of lucas's
50th anniversary line which is very cool and it stays on the front guys darth sidious apprentice
and forcer darth maul has cut his way through the ranks of the galactic crime syndicate black sun
to take on the pinnacle of the organization so it's actually more based on clone walls
interestingly i'm loving that face gulped i know everyone's been saying that facebook
is nice but yeah in hand it is very nice so much better than the original
i've got the original here as well so we will do some side-by-side comparisons
and mine's the brand new archive line version of darth maul as well so it's the modern version
and i've even got his old cloak item let's see if that fits on this new one should you want to
do that not that you would but we can try it and yeah we'll try everything else in between as well
okay so here
do not need this box because you are never returning to it you are now free
from your plastic prison okay so i've got some stuffed shape i need to pull out these [ __ ]
scissors over there out of harm's way so this is that old cloak piece that came
with the original darth maul it actually had a headpiece on it i forgot that this actually
came with a headpiece attached and there's no way there's no way of getting that out
and that could be if you ripped it out
because it would be it would have been cool to have like the cloak to put over the top
but not at the cost of losing that head sculpt because that new head sculpt is just too
nice but yeah it's very cool so that that that's from the old figure but you would fit on if you
wanted it to this head on this one will just pop off oh actually will it will it pop off
need some hot water on that oh it's got that new fancy neck on it oh yeah i'm not playing with this
too much i like this if i had a spare one i'd do it basically you wanna you're really gonna want to
really heat that up like a lot to make it really hot to pop it and then then it would fit on this
new body i would assume um because this kind of this guy as well but yeah it's a major improvement
look at the difference in the face gulps guys can you see on this cam very well this camera's
not to focus it's going to be an absolute pain in the backside stop looking at me and focus on that
nope it's not doing it all right i'll show you on discount a lot easier but yeah the face clubs is
second to none no that's just so much better than the original i'll do a side by side on the on the
uh thing the less cam but this guy is on um a head a head giant he kind of he does a little
move his neck as well which is nice so lots of articulation there his actual arms on a butterfly
hinge as well they also lift out with that side hinge there's a single hinged elbow here and the
hands are on ball joints i wish that i continued the black all the way down to the hands though
it does stop abruptly at the hand it would be nice to have like some black on the hand as well um
there's a crunch at the abdomen there which is nice it swivels around on there as well
i've got a red line through the black which is a bit of a pain in the bum
and around the bottom of the pec there's like black that shouldn't be there
under the arms there's plenty of that warping plastic going on from factory which is a pain
in the bee i hate that and the natural skirt piece that goes around the middle
um is loose on the body so that's nice it will move as he moves around
the bottom half the figure seems to be very much the the original sculpt actually the big
thick knees on it and stuff with the top thigh cut but i started and it looks like they've
removed they've removed this the actual cloth there's like a cloth skirt piece under this one
whereas they've not included that on this one but his legs do lift out all the way
and there is a top thigh cut there and a double hinged knee which just needs articulating and
there's no boot cut on that one but the feet are on rocker and pivot and he does have holes in
his feet should he wish to use a display base so all in all very nice figure very well articulated
and looks great and that new face club just makes him so much nicer this is the
new two-piece lightsaber that they've given him um it's just solid silver with red buttons on it
the lightsaber pieces now are a little bit thinner this is the original black series one and it's
actually shorter the the older one was shorter this one's now longer with a thinner blade on it
and this one obviously the last one we had
the last one sorry this new one we've got as well
has got the little nub on it as well so you can actually have it on his um
you can actually port it to his side here which is nice she's only got the one though
you can only port the one lightsaber which is a pain surely you'd want to pop both
oh unless you meant humanity party together take the blades out that would make sense sorry
yes you're going to want to attach it to his side
and he's gonna have one long lightsaber like that attached to him it looks a bit silly it
would have been nice if they separated in now two either side of him or something
so we think the length of that lightsaber looks absolutely ridiculous
but hey that's what i used in the film
right let's just go ahead and attach that to his hand
there we go
oh yes and now that we've got um sakura coming to the line as well very soon i'll be a very
happy boy if they just give me my final character that would be just fulfill my every wish and need
would be a daft helon um in black series just give me darth talon and i'll be happy
and some and savage press as well i know we've got that guy coming that looks like
savage press but it's still not the real one is it so i still need a savage press as well
right guys let's head on down to the desk and take a closer look at darth maul so guys here
is the new darth maul out of the packaging looking absolutely swoosh look at that face gulp guys that
is absolutely immaculate i am loving it so so much i'm so glad they've made this figure it is well
worth it they've made a solid effort with all the colorings and stuff there is a few issues for me
but not this stuff is going to take away from the enjoyment of the character i love that they've on
the side of his temple even like the little horns as well um some little spot gloss on his cheeks
make them stand out a little bit that's nice yeah everything about this figure is beautiful
even right down to the like gnarly teeth as well and the eyes as well have been printed well on
this one they look really nice yes very much in keeping with um you know the character darth maul
i'm gonna definitely try and get a cape it's obviously in
rebels he's more or less in the same outfit when he's you know portraying himself as the old man
to ezra he's just wearing a black cloak over the top of that basically that same outfit
but here he is compared to the old one i mean look at the difference
look at the difference between the face cups guys night and day right so much different now
so old darth maul welcome to storage my friend new darth maul welcome to the party
yeah actually when i see if i've got a black cloak in my um
in my draw of bits in a moment i'm going to test that theory i'll see if it looks good
but yeah he's just so awesome guys really happy to have this in the collection finally
some of these joints need a little bit of joy like heating up but
it's a definite really cool figure so you can get some great posing to it especially with
daphne's a great character to play around with and to pose with because he's very much in it's very
much in the style of like martial arts and stuff the way he poses things obviously that's what
the actor who played him um was very much into and stuff yeah it's just so cool love him so much i'm
so happy to have this figure in my collection now i wanted it for so long it finally got him
let's see if i can find a cloak for him doesn't actually look too bad that's actually the cloak
off the old emperor figure um it doesn't look too bad you know i'm actually happy with that i might
remove the little plastic bit um but that would fasten it together basically if you wanted to
yeah i was kind of looking at pictures of uh when we first meet maul with ezra and he's he's not got
he's not got like a shirt on he's definitely walking around topless um but with like a long
cloak on so if i can get if i can find the old walking stick as well that goes with my um with
the old emperor which will also be in the bitter box um then definitely that could look really
cool
very cool i like that figure a lot it's very nice
yeah with it being the emperor's cloak as well it actually because it's a shot obviously the
emperor is a short figure as well same as darth maul it's a short framed figure so it actually
looks nice on them an ordinary cloak would look very long on this figure i would think
