Sandwatch LIVE!
« on: February 08, 2009, 11:28:18 PM »
For years I've written Sandwatch Action Figure reviews, however we decided it's time to switch it up for YOUR viewing pleasure. Check out figure #1 from the Legacy Collection, Han Solo! May God have mercy on his soul!

Very cool Spice man as I really like this idea a bit better then the written review. Only 1 suggestion is to give a still picture every now and again for a few seconds then flip back to talking about the figure. That way some people that havn't seen it yet have a idea as well as you are talking about the figure. Please, PLEASE keep this idea going Spice.

Interesting the way you are going with this.  My suggestion is show close ups of what you are doing with the figure, in package and loose when you are showing the articulation and the accessories.  I'm sure this will get smoother as you do more of these, but you really have to see what you are showing.

Those suggestions you guys made have already been thought of, but these will improve as time progresses. It's a start, and we hope you guys enjoy them as much as we did filming them.

I really like your blunt honesty in whether or not we actually needed this figure, and the bat speaks volumes! You can't even give these two figures away but you had to buy then for the droid pieces! :-\

I agree either a close up or is someone knows how to do it a picture in picture of either a still in the corner or even better little video of the packaging/toy as you are describing it.  (just a thought you could probably video the package and loose fig by putting them on a turntable and spinning it in front of camera)
 
I like this idea though looks like a good step in a fun direction although with the crap hasbro sometimes throws at us you might end up having a collection of plastic shrapnel in a year or two lol.  One little thought about that though is there are a myriad of things to do with a bad figure...but shy of showing it get enshrined in a display/diorama whatever what do you do with the good ones.

Thirdly even if I could have seen the figure I am not sure if I would have looked at it I was hypnotized by this funny looking dirty caterpillar thingy on your face.  ;)

It will get better, as Strho gets the time we'll be seeing more and more. I really do enjoy this vs. writing, I can get INTO the work!  ;D  Stay tuned as I've got several props prepared for future installements, and thanks again to everyone for all the kind feedback.

We weren't looking to provide a up-close view of the figure (we do that in the images section), and maybe we shoudn't take for granted most of our audience owns this figure already.

Oh and Kelsith? Kiss it bro! I got tired of looking like I was 20!  8) :P

It's been quite a few months for me to get things back on track.  However, we're back to "situation normal" and while I'm still doing some fishing, I've got a few new clips to share soon!

Another welcome young friend and I have to disagree with you on the sculpt.  This might be the ugliest chick Hasbro has made since Cover Girl in 86.  They missed bad on the cowlick or whatever the hell they were trying to do with the hair.  A face only a mother could love but nice to see Darth Revan finally has someone to throw blows with!

I think she's a great figure,great review Nabil! Hey Darth Spice I think you made a great decision in having Nabil as one of your staff members cause he's a nice person and has lots of great reviews. You can tell he loves Star Wars and he definitely loves to collect and review. Hopefully you'll be happy to have him on board! May the force be with you both and I'm happy I can be apart of this awesome website. In my opinion it's the best SW collecting website around. Wayyyy better then rebelscum but that's just me of course :)

To be honest it was his enthusiasm and passion that really stood out.  It's great to see how much he cares about the hobby and I'm thrilled to have him in the trenches with us.  I guess being a nice guy is a great contrast to... well..  ME!   :P 8) :)
