First of all, congratulations to me!!! Why? Cos i just completed my law degree, that's why :) alhamdulillah, BIG thanks to my family in Jakarta and Surabaya for the major support since 2007.. i know i have been a pain to teach most of the time, but you all remained calm all the time. Hopefully i can put this new degree for good use.. for myself, family, future family, and country. Aamiin.
Anyway, this is me (circled) among some of my fellow academias. You can see the tension on some faces, and for good reasons too! we were about to be literally screwed by our academic counsellors hahahahahaha.
Praise Allah it all went well for me, i got the approvals to go ahead with minimum revisions, thanks to my mom and dad who are super lawyers. They DID help with my thesis :)
"Stop b1tch1n' and lets get to the toy review!", you say? Yes, i totally agree. Let's get to the fun stuff. With such an accomplishment, i've decided to reward myself hahahahahaha. BEHOLD..
REVENGE OF THE SITH MUSTAFAR FINAL DUEL PLAYSET (featuring Obi Wan and Darth Vader)!!!
I got this from Multi Toys, SuperMall Pakuwon, Surabaya, East Java. I've been eyeing this for quite some time everytime i went there to attend classes, but i didn't wanna buy it then because i felt like i haven't done anything to deserve such a monument. I first saw this at a friend's toy shop, and at that time i was shocked by the price.. it was twice the price than what i paid for in Surabaya. Maybe my friend's shop was a specialty shop, i don't know. But i got the same thing for much, much less hehehehehehe. And since i feel like i deserved it, so i got it :)
FYI it costs US$29,99 according to Rebelscum.com (
), so let's just leave it at that.
So what does a US$29,99 Star Wars item get me nowadays? Let's see the features..
According to Rebelscum.com, i get:
- Obi-Wan KEnobi figure
- Darth Vader figure
- Blasting Magma!
- Breakaway Platforms!
- Lava Flips Over!
- 2 Ropes
- 2 Battle Discs
It says all that? Not bad, Hasbro. Now let's get inside the box.. first glance, these are what's inside.
After taking it out one-by-one, below are the items that make up the playset:
1. 2x Breakaway Platforms
2. a. Gate top-part
b. 2x Magma balls stuff
3. 2x Battle Discs
4. a. Lava
b. Another lava that serves as the battle discs base
5. Part of the breakaway platforms
6. Top part of the volcano
7. Bottom part of the volcano
8. Obi Wan Kenobi
9. Darth Vader
10.Manual
11.Brochure
Sweet, a lot of things. So far i think i'm getting my money's worth. Let's assemble this!
First step
Take the bottom part of the volcano (7) and gate top-part (2a) and join them together as pictured..
Second step
Take the top part of the volcano (6) and join it together with the previously assembled bottom part (7 & 2a), by pressing it until it snaps (quite a scary process, the snap sound was loud and i was afraid i broke something).
Third step
The third step is to set up the lava (4a) and the other lava that serves as battle discs base (4b), as pictured.
The fourth step
Assemble together the two breakaway platforms (1) and the breakaway platform parts as pictured..
The fifth step
Join the two breakaway platforms (1) to the top part of the volcano (6). At the same time put the battle discs (3) on the lava that serves as battle discs base (4b), as pictured.
The sixth step
Place the two magma balls stuff (2) at the volcano mouth on the top part of the volcano (6), as pictured.
..and there you have it, ladies and gentlemen. A beautiful-yet-playful scene recreation of the Mustafar Final Duel. Here's a final look with Obi Wan and Darth Vader placed on the battle discs.
Hope you enjoyed the step-by-steps above. Hopefully you'll get one yourself in the near future coz it's really cool to have.. but you gotta earn it, though :)
Until then, keep collecting and enjoying your collection. I'm out.
Regards, Donny a.k.a DeeJayRizla
