[Cocoboloboy]

Thank you all for the comments!

Yes, I’ll be making this and one or two other versions available. I’d like to see what that backdrop looks like too and maybe incorporate it in a stand, possibly something Detolf sized.

Landed the beginning of the week and I finally had some time to unbox and take some quick phone shots. Hope to get out the camera and sit down for a few hours of playtime in the coming weeks.

Quick thoughts:
The body is subpar and only good for very static poses, which i mainly use, but no double- jointed elbows and no thigh swivel is a let down... sucks for getting the subtle and more realistic posture and weighted poses. Also possibly no butterfly shoulder joints as well? Helmet seems overly dark and grimy compared to on screen but under bright lights it appears more accurate. Hands are oversized but it’s a HT figure.
Still a great figure. Outfit and tailoring are top notch but i may do a body swap down the road.

My most anticipated figure release for the past couple years (since Krennic) and very stoked to have this in hand. Just sad that they skimped-out on the regular true-type body.

Thanks for the great pictures. Really nice seeing the three of them together with their very varied heights.

Shame about the body. I’m a museum pose kind of collector but absolutely unacceptable to advertise the figure with a lot of action photos and deliver a subpar, poorly articulated body.

Seems like going out of their way to do that. The only rationale I can think of aside from/in service of cost cutting is that the figure has a restrictive multilayered suit and thick pleather apron so they didn’t feel a lot of articulation was warranted.

If also seems to have an unusually high number of delicate parts like the fur, many small pleather straps, and faux suede so maybe they didn’t want the figure to be posed too extremely.

Has anyone found a suitable replacement body for a swap?

Look so great together, and besides all the unique armor and gear, HT didn't skimp on the unique body sizes either.
Although as soon as I saw that image, this song popped in my head:
We're Three Mandoleros,
Three great Mandoleros....

Darn you Disney, you taint everything I see!

@D.R.37 Thanks for the group shots and appreciate the feedback. They look very good together!

[Rbeato]

I wonder which part is gonna fly.

Maybe the beskar chip when he tries to hold it between the tongs. I can also imagine the tongs being broken

I never watch these things but I might check this one out. When do they generally upload the vid?

I just checked YouTube and I’m amazed there’s already at least 10 reviews for this and I’m sure many more on the way

Right after the stream finishes, it just processes it and uploads it.
