hey guys we ho supersorrell thank you very much tune in look what i got
it's darth revan i've dropped him already it's darth vader so i found this as you guys know
at smith's i did a little short video the other day where i uh showed him off but i mean i just
found him at smith he was readily available on the shelf couldn't believe it grabbed it
been needing a replacement for mine for years mine is so loose at this point look at this bad
boy this is my original reverend and he's around wobbly street so hopefully this new one might not
be as wobbly but yeah i've been dying for a new one for a long time so this is from the 50th film
the 50th lucasfilm anniversary line it's from the the black black series archive series and yeah
from star wars legends although it's from star wars legends but they're redoing kota so is kota
gonna be back to being canon when they re-release it interesting but yeah this
is showing us being a part of the legends uh according to this from 1991 to late 2001
darth revan the enigmatic former hero of the jedi civil war darth revan continued to play
a pivotal role in the ongoing war between the sith empire and the galactic republic
hmm yes i'm very interested with what you guys think do you think with them re-releasing kota
do you think that they'll be reworking reverend back into canon and law let me know your thoughts
in the comments down below because as i say this one is definitely still indicating
that he's a part of legends um so yeah i'm really intrigued what you guys think they'll do i think
they'll work it back in because he's a he's a fan favorite character isn't it let's be honest
would this be during see i'm no good with timelines would this be during the high
republic era that they've been doing or is this long before that i can never i'm no good with
with kota timelines like the original night of the republic and stuff but either way i can't wait to
bust him out of the packaging and take a closer look at this figure so let's do this let's not
confuse the old one in the new one uh there is a few subtle changes a few subtle differences it's
the same figure same mold but the paint apps have got slight variances from last time um
yeah they've made a few subtle changes in the paint and when you're where they've chosen that so
the mask has some slight sort of paint differences uh including the the actual mask itself is a
different like it's like a silvery green this time around and yeah the actual like chips and lines in
the mask have been changed around uh i'll show that on desk cam a little bit better um and the
rose sort of the sort of rose gold armor they sort of changed uh up its coloring a little bit
uh but that that's basically it those are all the changes there's just slight variances in
the paint otherwise it's exactly the same figure now this new one it has it already
look at this the new figure has the wobbly leg already i don't get that because the
the jedi one does too there's a slight wobble in the leg before you even pose it
that irritates me a little bit although i do love this figure for the cloth goods the
the tattered cape is amazing the undercloth um all been all tatted is great as well
and now that i've got a new version of darth revan i can custom the old one which i'm really
excited about so i can play around with my old one a little bit now and so we dyed to like mess with
that one for years because i like the i like the look of the figure and the the this cake piece so
yeah i'm gonna have a mess around with that i've been dying to try and get another jedi uh reverend
for years so that i could have the jedi robes version so i could like use that for a custom
but he does come with his two sabres again he's got the purple saber whoop
and the red saber uh same as last time both of these are removable from their hilts as well
they'll pop those over there but what what what we'll do guys is we'll head on down to the desk
cam so you guys can get up close first look at this figure so let's head on down to the desk
all right guys so here we are on the desk and here is darth riven so this is the new version of darth
revan and he does look pretty cool like i say is a great looking figure and this is the old version
so if i put them side by side like this hopefully the camera will focus
uh you can see slight subtle variations uh in the coloring schemes the new ones
a little bit darker than the last one there's slight variations but only just
it's like i say now i've got this new version my old version
is being retired and it will become a custom
i've been needing a custom uh that i can play with this of this for years so yeah this is the old one
and yeah i'm gonna have a good play with that layer and see what i can do with these pieces
yeah great it's still a great figure to this day isn't it so this is the uh the the new darth revan
and of course we've still got the jedi revan as well to compare him to i still love the jedi
raven that's such a great figure that was from the gaming greats line as well awesome looking figure
but you can't beat darth reverend man he's got his sabers here as well i love the i love the
the purple sabers always my favorite on this one so good then there's the plain red and black
love it articulation on this figure the head is on a ball joint but you can't do anything with it
because of the hat because this hat piece uh the cloth well the the hood really stops any form of
movement but you can kind of move his head left and right a little bit underneath there his arms
do lift up that side hinge to also rotate there's a single hinge sliding elbow there and the hands
are on ball joints the arms are a lot stiffer on this one which i like we have an abdomen crunch so
we can crunch them around there really easily really nice legs do lift out to the side not
very not hindered very much by the um the cloth pieces which is good is there a top thigh cut
yeah there's a top like on the figure as well and we have got um durable hinge knees on there
as well there are double hinges under there and the feet are on rocker and pivot so plenty
of articulation display peg holes should you just use display base not they're gonna need to
so yeah plenty of articulation to be going out did the now now that i've done that now
that i've actually activated that hinge and i've messed around with it it's back to wobble city
darth rivens always had this issue and i don't know why it irritates me i'm just double checking
on the old figure yeah the old one had double hinged knees and a top thigh cut and everything
didn't it it was quite a well articulated figure for the age of the figure to be fair
and i remember when when this darth raven came out and he was like really sore after you couldn't
find him anywhere and i think i paid about 45 50 quid for mine originally which is stupid now now
that we've got the um the amount of places to buy things from that we do that we didn't back then
so i mean trying to get a data revenue when it originally came out was so hard now it's just
super easy just pre-order them it's crazy how times have changed for the uk collect
collectors market i know you guys in the states have had still have some
um issues trying to get figures and things i understand that but here in the uk it has
improved greatly over the last sort of three or four years it has got better and better
um at the moment we're just having a few distribution issues but that's not us down
to the world in the way which we're now currently living in everyone's everything's catching up on
that two years uh it's like it's like we had our own little blip isn't it it's like uh it's like
the world living marvel for comics for real at the moment we're all just recovering from that blip
that two-year coveted period but i'm sure all the disputes will return to normal soon
but either way we've got a new awesome archive line figure here he's definitely worthy of being
in the line he's definitely released i think people were wanting just because of who the
character is he's stupidly popular and yeah finally got a new version of him in the line
