I haven’t been too enamored of the Black Sequence currently, so I used to be stunned that I ended up fairly enthusiastic about many of the Black Sequence releases proven off at Hasbro’s Pulse Con 2024.
I’ve big Clone Trooper fatigue on this line currently, so I’m slightly stunned I need this one! Perhaps as a result of he goes with the latest and wonderful Ki-Adi Mundi determine or maybe as a result of he has a barely totally different design. The remainder of his squad has a neat snow trooper in maroon vibe that I wouldn’t thoughts as properly. Give me that Ki-Adi loss of life squad!
Dagan Gera is from a Star Wars recreation I haven’t performed, however he’s a novel trying Jedi sporting the Excessive Republic fashion Jedi gear that I’ve come to essentially like studying these comics. It’s a disgrace he’s one-armed as a result of he’d be nice customized fodder in any other case. I do want that they had included a force-push hand for him as he seems slightly foolish holding his c-grip hand up. As a lot as I’d like Joes to come back with fists for punching, extra Jedi want power push arms. With the ornate lightsaber and glossy gold trim, this man is only a snazzy trying determine. At some point I’ll get a PS5 and eventually play this recreation.
It’s been lengthy whereas since we obtained a Luke from the unique Star Wars and it’s a determine that might use some trendy enhancements for certain. I’ve obtained the Figuarts ANH Luke and this one truly feels fairly near that in sculpt high quality. The place it falls slightly quick for me is the portrait. Not a lot the face because the hair appears slightly too tame and brown for ANH Luke for my style. Nonetheless, I feel he might positively change the outdated Black Sequence ANH Luke I’ve on the shelf.
The portrait on Leia and the face printing actually appeals to me, a particular enchancment on the Black Sequence determine I’ve and I feel I’ll additionally seize this one to interchange my gentle items Black Sequence Leia on the shelf. I additionally like the best way the hoods hold. Between these two improved figures, I’d prefer to see them re-do ANH Han as properly. It’s one in every of my all-time favourite figures, however it’s actually exhibiting its age.
I instantly liked the Battle Droid Commando design from the second they first confirmed up within the first Clone Wars season and so they had been one in every of my favorites to play in Battlefront II, in order that they’ve been excessive on my need record for a very long time. The truth that a brand new Star Wars recreation encompasses a Commando Droid in all probability helped get this man made since they’ll simply re-use this one. It seems like they did a pleasant job within the articulation right here with double ball joints within the shoulders. I additionally like some the weathering they’ve executed with some chip harm alongside among the surfaces. I ordered a few these.
I learn the unique Shadows of the Empire e book and comics and purchased all of the toys after they first appeared and, fairly frankly, I didn’t like it other than among the Swoop Gang and Bounty Hunter designs, so I’m slightly stunned at how stoked I’m to see Xizor (or Skeezor as I all the time consider him attributable to his bizarre pheromone-powered seduction try with Leia). I don’t know, possibly absence makes the guts develop fonder or it’s so way back that I’ve developed nostalgia for one thing I didn’t actually love, however this seems unbelievable to me. The small print on his outfit, the haughty expression, and the nasty scaled backbone all look wonderful to me. I feel it’s only a nice trying determine, so which may be all it’s. As a bonus, his solicitation info confirmed extra Shadows of the Empire figures together with Sprint Rendar (!), Luke, and Leia. Shadows of the Empire Renaissance. Perhaps I can get a Spiker or Furlag determine of this!
Xizor, Bacara, and the Commando droid went up for pre-order yesterday and the remaining might be up subsequent week 9/18 at 1PM ET for a Spring launch.
