1/6 Hot Toys -VGM63/63B - StarWars Legends: Lord Starkiller

‘bout time. Let’s find out if this one turns out to be another ****** piece of plastic chunk just like his pal Revan or not.

Had mine a few days (from TBA).

I initially skipped PO purely because of the outfit looking like pleather but once I saw it was not pleather and initial in hand reports indicated that the material is something much better I decided to buy it.

In hand it is cool. Posability is limited by the outfit and design obviously but this is a character that will look great in fairly neutral poses. the hands are painful to swap out (this guy has really sharp blades) but they do look cool. The light up saber isn't anywhere as bright as the custom options but to my eye was the brightest HT saber I have owned so far so it is better than expected )not that I will use it much).

Overall it is a solid figure. What really makes it awesome is it is a TFU character finally!!! Get him on shelf and add that upcoming HT battle damage Vader that is basically TFU Vader then add some custom TFU troopers and shadow guards (Skylu3D, Budget3DWorks and even I have 3D printable armour and weapons for such characters) and you have yourself a pretty amazing TFU 1:6 shelf. Hopefully HT continue the line with characters such as Shaak Ti, Juno Eclipse, Evo Troopers, Triton Squad troopers, Navy Commandos, light side Galen etc etc etc.

I will not sugar coating my words and will go straight to the point

Revan is a shjitty piece of plastic shjt

Starkiller is such a phenomenal figure with great presence, the bad@ss factor with this figure is simply immeasurable. Highly recommend folks buying it (Not Revan).

Revan does feel a bit...cheap in hand. However, it looks great on the shelf and unless you're picking it up to remind yourself how it feels, it's still a figure I'd recommend if you're into the character at all. My Starkiller should be here Tuesday so I'm looking forward to them being side by side (and comparing the quality).

each to their own I guess, but the fact that even a clone trooper feels way more superior in hand in term of quality speaks for itself though..gosh I love those AOTC white clone troopers, just can't never have enough.

Oh, one more crucial point about Starkiller, the body suit is exactly new nylon material according to the description and it feels super strong. But on the other hand, it is kind rigid and hard to pose though. But hey, no more pleather deterioration.

In Spanish

I still find it amazing we have Hot Toys Force Unleashed figures. Starkiller and the technically not TFU but totally based on TFU battle damaged Vader will look amazing together. Let's hope way more characters/troopers from the games come along soon!

I’m on the fence with Battle Damage Vader @jaztermareal for now as there’s no mention of nylon being used on the suit and we all know that “pleather” degrades like there’s no tomorrow if very humid conditions are present depending in where someone resides.

So I’m guess that you would want Maris Brood, Juno Eclipse, normal Starkiller, and whatever else the HT will make from this lineup/game.

It is nylon on the battle damaged vader, says so on the product page.

I would be in for so many TFU characters... loads...


Yeah I recall Vader being nylon so might be my first HT Vader.

I really like the stuff they've been putting out recently, and happy they're finally getting to legends. That said, I'd love a TFU Galen. Either TFU 1 or 2
