It bums me out how few views Jangs reviews get nowadays. Never feels like he is in a rush to tell you all the details on a set, and he uses his own money so he's completely honest about how he feels, which is why I keep coming back here

I really hope they do a Chopper version of this

They know what they’re doing luring us with Darth Malak minifig like that

I really want to see a photo of all the misprinted R2 heads together 😅

Bought this yesterday for my birthday, can't wait to build it, and place it next to my BD-1 droid

Love the impression of the investors at the end. Keep up the good work

I can see that darth malek being in the Lego Starwars magazine sooner or later

I’m amazed they included Malak’s missing Jaw, that seems kind of brutal for a minifigure, especially one that’s not in a set targeted at adults. I assumed they would have just included his regular face before losing his jaw but they went all out.

I’m still trying to convince myself not to buy a $100 set just for the figure though. I don’t need it, but the FOMO is very strong. I always felt like I missed out by not getting the Revan figure and Lego knows a lot of people feel the same so instead of just giving us another Revan they decided they could earn more money off of us by making a new exclusive figure to go with Revan and make us buy an expensive set just to get it.

Hopefully with the Lego factory being built here in VA well see better quality control on parts and prints. But I have this set and love it. Love the reviews Jang and cant wait to see the Tantive-IV boarding review

I absolutely adore this set! The final result and the Malak minifigure are both amazing—moving it side to side can even do the “dance” he does sometimes since the legs have some give. With regard to the build experience, I usually prefer more but smaller bags, and this set provides that with spectacular pacing.

i really appreciate that you dunk on the scalpers. one of the few lego youtubers i respect.

YAY! R2D2 in Lego! We always knew hes a "stud" :) He saved the Millennium Falcon in Empire and is my hero.

Love this review!
I appreciate the honesty❤.
Can’t wait for mine to arrive.

The side legs seem to be splaying out slightly?

Looks very good to me. The grey and white sticker backgrounds don't match the brick colour, though. 😢

[GuanoLad]

The arms being additions is exactly how it was done in the real movies, so ironically that's authentic.

[sabremarky]

Printed dome, A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one

[greenhill]

I love this set. I normally don't buy display pieces, I like building buildings, but this looks amazing and the exclusive minifigure looks fun.

[allonewordcaps]

Fun to watch you build this on twitch. Great video. 😊

My prediction and hypothesis as to the reason they released this set was so that it would be at the correct scale with the C-3PO figure that will be released later this year. I think they want to get the shot with C-3PO, standing next to R2-D2 with his hand on the top of R2-D2
