Wow honestly surprised they didn't save this guy for ROTS 20th, especially with the CW version still on the market that has a very similar robe. Sculpt looks insanely creepy too, easy DOPO
 
Ah I can’t lie, this sculpt doesn’t do it for me. It’s a bit too stylized for my liking.

Is his outfit color inaccurate? To me it always came off as grey. Would be funny if HT to get it wrong after their TCW release.

I always assumed this and that CW look were the same outfit. He wears the same red/maroon outfit as the office duel throughout different CW episodes. I just assumed they borrowed those outfits rather than designing all new ones for him. I’d almost have preferred a single release with both heads and then done the office duel as the second figure and include both heads again. Really odd choice really.
 
At the rate HT has been pumping out Star Wars figures over the last month you’d think they’re losing the license or something. Kinda crazy numbers but some really unique and interesting figures and choices happening, even if a couple of turds like the chrome Cody and Goldie came from the batch. 2 out of like a dozen being the only duds isn’t bad.
 
As much as I’d like to see a serious expression sculpt for Palps this thing looks awesome.
Other than when telling young Skywalker he was going to die, the Yoda fight might have been one of the few moments we really saw Palpatine enjoying himself and grinning. A smirk here and there for sure, but not a full on smile and cackle. It’s very fitting for this outfit.
 
Looks like he’ll coming with the red coin at the event (guess this is still going and apart of it?) and the gold coin for select markets (aka Sideshow).

I always associate this version with this specific bit of him having his hands up as he's telling Yoda to rise while cackling.

This is definitely the version to give him a more goofy and "fun" having sculpt.
