hi phantom videos uh tactical war suit
0:02
welcome like comment subscribe sorry i'm
0:04
just in a rush i'm really excited i want
0:05
to get this unboxed intro
0:09
[Music]
0:17
[Music]
0:27
four days building yet not needed okay
0:32
that is massive
0:34
we haven't even got the box out yet and
0:36
it's huge right bear with me one second
0:38
because i need some of my old model
0:40
models for comparison stare at the box a
0:42
second
0:44
there we are right so
0:46
tactical lawsuit time
0:48
this thing honestly the box itself is
0:51
absolutely ridiculously huge um
0:55
you know
0:56
just for comparison before we begin
0:58
that's the size of a normal model
1:01
and
1:02
one of these or at least one of these in
1:04
the phobos armor will fit inside that so
1:06
let's have a cheeky quick look at the
1:08
box straight away so
1:10
yep pretty standard
1:12
um there you go pictures of it on the
1:14
back so this is
1:16
a bit more like the individual boxes
1:18
that the joy toy do so uh if you
1:21
remember the librarian came with like
1:23
artwork on the front whereas the others
1:25
had pictures of the models when you get
1:26
them as a group you have the actual
1:28
photo of the model on the cover when you
1:30
get an individual model or the boxes
1:33
inside that larger box have the the
1:35
artwork on these new ones and i like it
1:37
it's not official
1:39
games workshop artwork but it is a nice
1:43
not quite cartoony grim dark cartoony
1:46
representation of uh of the 41st
1:49
millennium so where are we gonna start
1:52
um i want to do this without damaging
1:55
the box really so
1:57
let me try and cut down here
2:01
there we are right
2:07
it's the longest unboxing ever because
2:08
it's a bigger box
2:11
i'm really not doing this well there
2:13
must have been an easier way to do this
2:14
i just i don't want to cut the box
2:16
itself
2:17
and that's just right we're in there now
2:19
let's just use fingers
2:22
so there we are in victor tactical wall
2:24
suit so
2:26
it looks like it slides out from the top
2:28
or the bottom or the side i can't really
2:30
tell um yes right it's the top so let's
2:32
slide it out from the top and
2:36
cut down there
2:39
one down here and then there's one on
2:41
the back as well
2:42
and then it should
2:44
just slide out so
2:46
[Music]
2:49
so that's nice comes with foam packaging
2:51
this time which is really really awesome
2:53
uh let's flip it over slide it out
2:59
oh there's like two trays this is weird
3:01
uh right so there we go
3:05
okay oh wow wow
3:09
right then
3:10
this is
3:12
huge mongus
3:13
let's have a look
3:16
so i haven't actually got a
3:18
invicta tactical war suit built i have
3:21
got one somewhere
3:22
but what i do have is a dreadnought for
3:25
a size comparison so there's our
3:27
dreadnought
3:28
and our dreadnought
3:30
is smaller
3:33
back in focus our dreadnought is smaller
3:36
than the marine that goes inside this
3:38
wall suit so
3:40
let's have a look so there's some tape
3:41
down there on the phone that is double
3:44
phone so let's just shift this off
3:47
and do the reveal of what's underneath
3:48
so there's our feet
3:51
and our
3:52
marine that goes inside it with look at
3:54
the size of that bolter
3:57
so
3:58
right
3:59
wow
4:01
wow like honestly you you can't
4:03
appreciate this on video you really
4:05
can't um
4:07
what have i got that's like a similar
4:08
size let me just grab my nearest space
4:10
marine
4:12
so
4:13
space marine
4:15
tactical war suit i've actually had to
4:17
zoom out the camera today so that you
4:19
can you can fit this all in frame
4:22
this is ridiculous
4:27
like i've seen it you've seen the
4:28
pictures online and you just you can't
4:31
get
4:32
an impression from that how big
4:35
this thing is
4:36
like
4:39
oh this is amazing
4:42
okay right i'm just gonna swoon all over
4:44
it so let's try and get it out of the
4:47
container no let's get its feet first so
4:49
i can actually stand it on something so
4:52
we need to cut these
4:54
hopefully it's just one-sided no it's
4:56
not
4:57
i do like the presentation of this as
4:59
well like the way it's been put in the
5:00
box
5:02
so you know even that card has got its
5:04
own central little thing so it's it's
5:07
laid out really nice and and absolutely
5:10
awesome in there that is brilliant like
5:13
just the layout of it's really good and
5:15
then even even the uh
5:17
the marine that goes inside it i think
5:19
he's got a name i forget what it was but
5:21
even the marine that goes inside it um
5:24
like he's got his own hands again so
5:26
it's a normal you get a normal marine
5:28
with hands and his weapons and i don't
5:31
know if he's got yet he's got his little
5:32
clip-on
5:33
uh holsters and bolters and things like
5:35
that so your pilot actually comes with
5:38
his own backpack and everything so you
5:39
can have him just stood to the side
5:41
which is a really really good
5:43
way of going right this guy is his own
5:45
separate person to that but it will sit
5:48
inside that which is incredible right
5:50
let's move this out
5:52
so a little bit of
5:54
static friction there lifted that up so
5:56
right parts for the invicta war suit
5:59
i'll be honest i'm not going to go
6:00
through the pilot too much because
6:03
we've i've done enough videos on these
6:05
things i don't we don't need to do
6:07
another one but i will do what i can to
6:10
sit him inside the war suit look at that
6:12
bolter
6:13
that's
6:14
awesome
6:15
so right oh and then we've even got the
6:17
aerials as well i forget which side
6:19
these go on so
6:20
hopefully like the different
6:22
hopefully the different holes inside it
6:24
make it easier to put it in the right
6:26
place we'll find out
6:28
let's have a quick i say read of this no
6:29
it just says invicta tactical war suit
6:31
so whatever this chaps name is i don't
6:33
know
6:34
okay then
6:36
uh we'll take the bolter out we'll leave
6:37
the hands in the backpack for now the
6:39
backpack goes on the back in fact one
6:40
thing i want to check yep they have so
6:43
if you remember the first models i
6:45
mentioned the hands were really really
6:47
stiff and it was almost impossible
6:49
at times to take these hands off which
6:52
again do just pop off so
6:54
there you go
6:55
and then replace them with the other
6:57
hands because they were the material was
7:00
so
7:01
so hard that you couldn't actually get
7:03
those hands on very easily i had to use
7:05
a tool that would sort of stretch it out
7:08
and then put it on but even then it was
7:10
difficult the hedge just popped off but
7:12
we know this is a problem it just pops
7:14
back on i say problem it's not a problem
7:15
it's just you know i'd rather have it a
7:18
little bit loose than too stiff as they
7:20
were but yeah so anyway it's nice that
7:23
the hands
7:24
have been upgraded for this new flexible
7:26
version which we saw on the intercessors
7:28
but not on the original phobos armor in
7:30
cursors and infiltrators so right we'll
7:33
get rid of that box
7:35
i'm running that space on my floor like
7:37
that's how big this thing is and then
7:39
we're gonna pull this out oh my word
7:46
oh this is huge
7:48
right so points of articulation so even
7:51
things like that
7:53
uh are all moving one thing i'm not sure
7:55
about as well is this had been pointed
7:57
out so somebody had got these and i need
7:59
to check it but oh that's good it nicely
8:02
clicks as well it's not just
8:04
you know compression this has come off
8:07
so okay that's fine that's just a bit of
8:09
compression fit on there we can easily
8:11
put it back on um so we'll go through in
8:13
a second let's get his feet on so the
8:15
feet you've got little hex shapes in
8:17
there and they just go on i don't
8:20
suppose there's a particular
8:22
left foot and or right foot but
8:25
the small bit goes at the back the
8:27
longer it goes at the front and the
8:28
medium bits go at the side
8:30
so
8:31
there we go
8:32
come on
8:34
it's a bit stiff on this one there we go
8:35
it's on
8:36
so
8:37
and clicked into place so you can i
8:39
think yeah you can turn it around that's
8:40
what the the hexers do for us just
8:43
make sure it's not 100
8:45
large and stiff so let's have a look at
8:48
the articulation of this thing so um
8:51
obviously we can turn this it's quite
8:53
stiff these will go up and down
8:57
nothing on the ankle it doesn't seem but
9:00
the knee will bend so the leg will bend
9:02
up everything's a big crunchy click so
9:05
it's actually in stages and it kind of
9:07
resists you a bit weird that the ankle
9:11
doesn't
9:12
move it must do yes it does it does my
9:14
bad so yeah the ankle as well will pivot
9:17
there look if you can see that
9:19
so that's good so the knee pivots the
9:21
ankle pivots
9:23
uh what we've got on the back
9:25
uh no nothing on there
9:28
so you can have him
9:29
sort of walking forward i guess if you
9:31
like
9:33
but let's just put it back
9:35
and have him stood straight so yep
9:37
you've got
9:38
there we go and i think it was two
9:39
clicks that way and then
9:41
there so i'll kind of stand him there we
9:44
go just sort of wedge them into place oh
9:46
one thing i didn't notice sorry yep the
9:47
toes even the toes will move up and down
9:52
so
9:54
all of them so you can have them on
9:56
whatever surface you want doing whatever
9:58
pose and position you want one thing i
10:00
did notice people commenting online is i
10:02
think on the original invicta tactical
10:04
war suit this is the other way around so
10:06
the flat bit is is at the top
10:08
and then it
10:10
sort of veers down if that makes sense
10:12
so this this uh edge is actually there
10:16
and this is upside down so i'm not sure
10:18
if i've got the upside down or the right
10:19
way up one but when comparing it to the
10:21
game's workshop model tactical wall suit
10:24
then you end up with a
10:26
um let me just move my lighting
10:30
you end up with
10:31
that being the wrong way around so i'll
10:32
have a look at that at another time
10:36
right so where are we up to we're up to
10:37
the waist
10:39
so the waist i'm sure that will yep that
10:41
pivots
10:42
which is really good i've got a mark on
10:44
the leg
10:45
which i'm not sure
10:47
is i think it's just a paint
10:49
drab or some kind of thing i don't think
10:52
it looks it doesn't look intentional
10:55
so it's not like a mar or a burr or
10:57
anything i think it's just a bit of
10:59
paint or some yeah some gold paint or
11:02
something to kind of scratch down it i
11:03
think it's come off this
11:05
uh based on the color because that's the
11:07
only other gold on the armor uh yeah it
11:09
looks like weathering i'm not too
11:10
bothered so yep the waist twists i don't
11:13
know if the waist
11:14
bends
11:16
i can't see it bending
11:18
oh that's
11:19
so the leg actually comes out with this
11:22
piston
11:24
like actually
11:25
going with it as well that that's super
11:28
cool
11:28
so you can have it
11:30
you can literally have it trying to do
11:31
the splits
11:33
let's do that
11:37
so
11:38
there we are oh hey jump let's jump for
11:40
joy i'm sure we can do that
11:44
i'm happy
11:48
yay one happy tactical war suit
11:52
absolutely incredible so yeah as we
11:54
found out from there you know the the
11:56
legs go in and out i'm sure
11:58
this has got that many points of
11:59
articulation on it i know i'm going to
12:01
miss some in this review so let's move
12:04
that round and again sorry about all the
12:06
clicking it's just
12:07
they're heavy so let's have a look at
12:09
one arm so the arm like the leg goes in
12:11
and out
12:12
it bends at the elbow which is really
12:14
cool and then the fingers i saw this on
12:17
another one of their mechs that they do
12:20
that i bought is the fingers all have
12:21
individual joints so you've got three
12:23
joints there on that finger to grab and
12:26
pose however you want which is really
12:29
really cool um
12:31
so going on from there
12:33
nothing on the shoulder what i don't
12:35
want to do is start trying to
12:37
really try too much to take this apart
12:40
for
12:40
building it in
12:42
or painting it or anything like that
12:43
because i don't want to damage it like
12:45
this i paid for this it cost me money
12:47
but yeah that does just slide off so i
12:49
would imagine with a lot of the
12:50
components they'll be very similar so if
12:53
you are wanting to paint them yourself
12:55
you are going to be able to disassemble
12:57
this
12:58
to a degree i say to a degree as much as
13:00
we know right now as you can take that
13:02
off
13:03
so i'm not going to do it like i'm sorry
13:05
i'm not i know you want like me to
13:07
sacrifice uh my models for the sake of
13:11
uh your enjoyment of this thing but i'm
13:13
not taking this i love it too much like
13:15
i've been looking forward to this more
13:17
than any other games workshop purchase
13:19
i've made in the last five years i've
13:21
got it now
13:22
i'm not taking i'm not going to
13:23
sacrifice it if i'm going to paint this
13:25
then i'm doing it as it is
13:27
um but i'm probably not so yep the the
13:30
auto cannons the auto cannons
13:33
move up and down as well which is really
13:35
cool what else have we got we've got the
13:36
missile launcher on the back which that
13:38
actually seems a bit loose which is
13:40
weird i don't know
13:41
like they've got the rivets there the
13:43
sort of lines for where you'd normally
13:44
get all the other joints in that do that
13:46
clicky horrible noise
13:48
that
13:50
so um the bit of plastic i would imagine
13:52
that kind of i'm guessing is meant to be
13:54
in there to hold that uh isn't so yeah
13:57
so we've got the missile launcher on the
13:58
back it does look like it will pop out
14:00
if you want to but i'm too scared to
14:03
we will get the canopy open in a second
14:06
none of this
14:07
seems to move let's just check out the
14:10
thing so that's i can't remember what
14:11
this is called like a twin
14:13
is it a riva canon reaper cannon or
14:15
something like that i was wondering
14:17
because
14:19
the other joy toy mech that i bought
14:20
came with so many weapon options it was
14:23
insane i was wondering we've seen the
14:26
we've seen the space walls variant of
14:28
this which has got the flamer on there
14:30
so i didn't know if the ultramarine
14:33
version would come with the option of
14:35
the flamer or whether it would be just
14:37
this thing so we can at least confirm
14:39
now that there are no options you purely
14:42
get the auto the twin auto canon e thing
14:46
um right so
14:48
let's have a look so that's on a pivot
14:50
it's also there but that that it seems
14:53
is it
14:55
it seems to be like a slight ball joint
14:57
but nothing
14:58
where you would really notice a
15:00
difference and it kind of always falls
15:01
back to center anyway oh it fell out so
15:04
at the very least i can i can swap that
15:06
i think it was probably halfway out from
15:08
where it was meant to be yeah it was so
15:10
it had already come out so that comes
15:12
off easily enough as well
15:14
which is really really great right let's
15:16
just check the back make sure there's
15:18
nothing on there so
15:19
we've got this which is annoying that it
15:21
again it's just a bit loose you can kind
15:23
of hold it there
15:24
or there but anywhere else it just sort
15:26
of falls so
15:28
you can always get some there's proper
15:30
stuff you can buy online uh for action
15:32
figures that you know make joints a bit
15:34
tighter as well i think you can get it
15:36
for like i think it's gun dammit or
15:38
something
15:39
where they use it so that the joints are
15:41
just a bit more
15:42
robust and and things don't fall over as
15:44
much but it doesn't glue them in place
15:46
at the same time right then so the
15:48
canopy
15:49
there we go that just that's a nice
15:51
stiff joint and that just lifts up and
15:53
the detail in here is awesome so
15:56
i'll go on to the paint scheme so
15:58
obviously i've got that little mar on
15:59
there
16:00
which you can't see because it's under
16:01
the autocannon but you've got that
16:03
little mar on there but otherwise it's
16:05
painted exactly the same way as the
16:06
previous ones all the metal bits are
16:08
essentially black and then they've been
16:10
dry brushed in a particular direction to
16:13
give the impression of some weathered
16:14
steel
16:16
the same on all the weapons some of the
16:18
parts are black and then they've had the
16:19
edges essentially dry brushed or edge
16:22
brushed there's some nice detail on here
16:24
where they've added some shading around
16:26
the the bottom of it so that's been sort
16:28
of initially blue then they've added
16:30
this shading and then once again it's
16:32
kind of edge brushed which is why you
16:33
get these uh these sort of weird
16:37
strokes where there's just a little too
16:38
much paint on here hey that's how i
16:40
paint anyway so at least for me i don't
16:42
go around and do precise edge
16:44
highlighting i do dry brush edge
16:46
highlighting so for me this looks
16:48
exactly the same as one of my models but
16:50
it's a good way to just bring out the
16:52
details and features of a particular
16:54
model and then they've gone in and done
16:56
some extra details like these these
16:58
transfers which are really nice and it's
17:00
nice to see that you know these have
17:01
been applied properly and there's no you
17:04
can't see any sort of visible edges or
17:06
raised parts or anything like that which
17:08
clearly would have been there as part of
17:10
the manufacturing process but they have
17:12
nicely cleaned that off one thing i
17:14
didn't notice as well is the hand
17:15
actually fully twists around as well so
17:17
i'm going to keep finding articulation
17:19
on here for days right
17:21
um so yeah and then in here you've got
17:24
your little joystick your control panel
17:25
and something with some spikes i don't
17:27
know why there's spikes on there i can't
17:29
imagine that's helpful or
17:31
safe so whoever's in charge of health
17:33
and safety in the 41st millennium might
17:35
want to just rethink
17:37
their vehicle safety manual because
17:39
three random spikes sticking toward the
17:41
pilot at any point probably not the
17:43
safest thing
17:45
oh i mean they are in mark 10 phobos
17:47
armor should be fine but still last
17:49
thing you want to do is prick your hand
17:51
uh right let's just take these these off
17:54
again these just pop in and out and that
17:57
looks honestly to me that looks daft on
17:58
that side i don't know why it's there
18:00
and then again i don't know if you need
18:02
to take these off but you can so
18:05
we can just sit this guy
18:07
inside
18:11
there we go he will sit in here i'm not
18:14
bent in properly but
18:16
just bend his knees and actually make
18:17
him in more of a sitting position
18:20
so he's lost his head he's lost his head
18:23
um
18:24
and then we'll do
18:25
that
18:32
and hopefully that's more of a thing
18:34
this um this buckle as well that's sort
18:36
of over his chest is just kind of loose
18:37
hanging so uh
18:39
not the best way to do it but again
18:41
posed on the shelf it just kind of sits
18:44
over the skull that's already there
18:46
but once it's posed on the shelf it's
18:47
not going to move so i think the point
18:49
of these really is to kind of get them
18:50
posed
18:51
um and go from there oh stop slouching
18:54
stop slouching sit properly
18:57
i feel like i'm
18:58
teaching me kids here there we go that's
19:01
kind of cool right and then get your
19:03
hand on that joystick
19:06
and then
19:08
also on that joystick there we go
19:10
that's easy enough you still look like
19:12
you're slouching sit up straight
19:15
you're gonna get a bad back
19:20
honestly you're gonna regret this when
19:21
you're older
19:25
there we go that's that's good enough
19:26
he's just kind of digging to the side
19:28
look spend more time than me doing it i
19:30
know he looks like he's slouching but
19:31
you can you can bend him into place
19:33
better it's just purely because i'm
19:35
trying to do it one-handed whilst doing
19:38
a video and it's never the best way
19:41
of looking at stuff so
19:42
there we go
19:44
but he's doing it look he's chilling
19:45
he's chilling in his war suit that's it
19:48
so and then canopy down
19:50
have i pinched him
19:53
uh i've put his elbow right where the
19:54
canopy needs to go
19:56
you move in there
19:58
same on that side
20:00
and there we go
20:01
so it's wedged him in so yep he fits
20:04
he fits completely and again you you
20:07
really don't get
20:09
like the size of this thing i'm trying
20:10
to think of other things i can compare
20:12
him to okay something modern or
20:14
something
20:15
recent that we know is of size so games
20:18
workshops recent release a dragon
20:24
do you get it now
20:25
like this this is games workshops
20:28
largest release in the last few months
20:32
it's huge with the wingspan dwarves
20:35
pretty much anything else they've done
20:37
in a long time
20:40
and it's half that
20:42
like
20:43
again you even watching this video i
20:45
guarantee you even watching this video
20:47
yours will turn up
20:50
and it will be
20:51
like i didn't realize you will be going
20:53
i didn't realize it would be that big
20:55
even after watching this video where
20:57
i've shouted shouted at you it's this
21:00
big it's this big uh
21:03
so okay these things i can't remember
21:05
which one goes on which i'm not going to
21:06
push them on too hard in case i get it
21:09
wrong but
21:11
i think i've done it the wrong way but
21:13
there you go even and now with the
21:14
aerial it increases so it's got even
21:16
more height
21:17
technically so again we'll just do a
21:19
quick size comparison
21:21
so there's that
21:25
ah
21:27
pop it in there right
21:29
there's that
21:33
there's that
21:36
so
21:37
and finally let's just get a space
21:39
marine
21:40
and there's a space marine
21:42
so
21:44
yeah
21:45
it is an absolute display piece
21:49
and for those of you who don't know it
21:51
is going
21:52
on
21:53
games workshops website this weekend uh
21:56
for pre-order
21:58
order it
22:00
don't even question order it if you
22:02
haven't got the funds find the funds
22:04
sell some of your models sell your
22:05
firstborn but like don't sell your
22:08
firstborn not accepting any
22:09
responsibility for people to take my
22:11
advice seriously
22:12
um but seriously get this
22:14
this honest you can't turn it down it's
22:16
just incredible and from the leaks we've
22:18
seen obviously we know the chaos marines
22:20
are coming they've already been
22:21
showcased the wolves have just had an
22:23
email before i started this video saying
22:25
they're on their way to date
22:27
and uh we've had suggestion and from
22:30
some leaks that seem to be
22:32
accurate for what joy toy are planning
22:34
to make over the course of 2022
22:38
and yeah it looks like they are doing
22:40
both uh the primaris war suits and the
22:43
original uh tactical marine sized war
22:46
suits i don't know if they're gonna
22:47
somehow up the scale or whether they are
22:50
are gonna be sort of more classic scale
22:52
and just a bit shorter than these i
22:53
think you know in comparison the old
22:55
terminators were probably two-thirds of
22:57
what the current ones are in heights um
22:59
but yeah like
23:01
it's just insane it is it is insane in a
23:05
good way so
23:07
yeah i would
23:08
without a doubt get this thing i don't
23:11
have i don't know how it's going to hold
23:13
the bolter but
23:15
wrap a finger through it somehow
23:18
i'll figure that out later um
23:20
but yeah just
23:22
i haven't even got room on my shelf for
23:24
this and i've got another one coming
23:25
i've got the space walls one coming i
23:27
don't have enough room on my shelf
23:30
what am i gonna do
23:33
absolutely incredible i love it the
23:35
detail in it is fine you know it's not
23:38
painted to a display standard it's just
23:41
it's it's a it's a toy but it is a
23:43
display piece i really want to see
23:46
people painting these things and what
23:48
they can get out of them like
23:50
just insane just absolutely insane
23:55
buy this thing
23:56
buy it now
23:57
but buy it on saturday unless you want
24:00
to google how to pre-order it or import
24:02
