Yeah I'm not a fan of those guards either. They look like they've stepped out of a Flash Gordon movie.
If so, I suppose Lucasfilm can pat themselves on the back considering that's what Star Wars was initially meant to be.
But figures from the 1980 Flash Gordon - I'd buy those.
There he is! Awesome, I was looking forward to this one. Swappable heads, and removable cape. Nice look at the Praetorian Guards too.
Why? They are just directly copying a Flash Gordon costume. I know that Lucas was influenced by the adventures of Flash Gordon, but these costumes are just blatant and lazy faximilies of the 80's movie. Yeah give yourselves a pat on the the back! ZZzzzz Very original.
It is pretty nice knowing that less than a year after the film releases I'll be able to pick this up at resale for less than 200. Makes having every iteration of a character much more feasible
The guards are growing on me. It's cool to have some fresh new designs in this universe, I gotta admit. It is what it is. It's canon & we gotta deal. Be happy we are getting all of this in the first place.
How this sequel trilogy is shaping up is waaaay better than no sequel trilogy at all. It's fun.
