Have to say, most are getting better at it (more genuine).
GemMint and Half-Fast are good guys. I like their videos.

I always trust the advice of a guy with a neck tattoo.

There are two issues with reviews. If they got a piece for free they are likely shills. If they liked it enough to spend their own money on it, 9/10 they are more predisposed to like it. You honestly get a better idea from places like this forum on the pros/cons because you have a group pointing things out about a piece and giving praise and criticism without having committed to a piece already. It’s hard to find a ‘bad’ review on YouTube, even awful pieces have good reviews on there from those defending their purchase.
I’m not crazy about the idea of a fiberglass statue, but looks great for those that wanted/needed a Rancor.

I can deal with most reviewers, but when they start having dedicated videos to how much money they have invested in their statues, I know they're not who I should be watching.

Borrow money from a pessimist, they don't expect it back.

According to SS, the statue is fiberglass. There's 4 reviews up in Youtube right now. The general consensus among them is that this is one big, awesome beast.

One of the reviewers mentioned the inside felt like fiberglass when he was bolting it together.

I’m not impressed either, but I might be a little jealous. Wait, if your jealous of something someone has, but you can’t afford it, are you impressed they can? Ok, I might be a little impressed, but also angry! And possibly sad. Then there’s envy, I’ve certainly got some of that going. It’s all very confusing. I also contemplate the possibility some of what they have was gifted in exchange for a review? Then I just feel stupid, because here I am working my tail off. I might stop collecting
