1/6 Hot Toys - VGM62/62B - StarWars Legends : Darth Revan

[fatmarco]

Technically there is no canon reference, as it’s “Legends” now.

Just wish they’d make the visor slimmer.

It is the canon version within the framework/idea of Revan though. The origin and entire fandom of his character comes from this source.

I guess I mean to say that no other depiction of him takes primacy over that original game. That includes the dual wielded lightsabers.

Looks like they were inspired by Revan's appearance in TOR compared to his KOTOR and TCW look.

Regardless, ordered. Skipping Starkiller but have to get Revan.

Every other official statue or figure I’ve seen of Revan has the more saturated look like HT. That’s what’s been approved and decided by Lucasfilm/Disney.

Wow I was actually able to use a SS thank you coupon on him. Shame the other one expired just yesterday or I would've been able to use it on Starkiller as well. So happy these exist

Fair, but I guess at that point it's a different argument.

Disney has approved (and continue to approve) a lot of inaccurate design changes or flaws in other figures, and have also made changes to established designs that weren't accurate to canon too.

It's just a shame because the desaturated, less cartoony look looks more Sith like than bright colours and more poppy details do.

(still preordered tho hahaha)

Thought it was done with Star Wars figures since I only ever wanted the ANH cast but yeah they drag me back in.

Now if we get HK, Kreia, and Nihilus, I think I’d melt

 

[Joe Prince]

Is this just through SS or can you order it elsewhere?

They have Revan and Starkiller tagged with an "EX" when you list their HT products, but I think that's just for the exclusive versions that have the coins.

 

[vspectra]

Raven might be my first Star Wars HT. Hope they also make Bastila

Sooner or later they will be, I think HT just gave SS a heads up because of the event, they were up on SS almost immediately after HT announced them.

Everyone is excited but give it a week and we ll see how dull of a release this actually is, no fists, the grip hands look terrible, lightsabers have hilts? Can they stow on his belt at all? For the money this release is actually pretty weak

Same for me. I was planning on closing my Star Wars collection after Han Solo, but they got me with these. I would also buy a Malak and Bastila if they do those, not much interest for KotOR II tho. Maybe a Kyle Katarn figure?

 

[Luisenigma1]

YES! AHHHH DARTH REVAN! preordered just now as fast as a saw the post on FB.

 

[darth dennis]

Never played the video games but pre-ordered the heck out of this and Starkiller. They'll look awesome on the shelf and that's good enough for me!

I think both of these releases look great, but I was also surprised by the lack of hands for both this (6) and Starkiller (5). I hate it when companies do this, it limits you so much in posing.

Yep, I'm concerned they don't show any unlit hilts too, but dark lords be force choking, fists should be standard

This looks pretty cool. I love the purple and red lightsaber combo, I must admit I never played the KOTOR game. I was really into Battlefront or the bounty hunter Jango Fett game. I remember my older brother playing this game a lot though. I was really young and the game seemed like it would be too hard for me at the time. I’m hope they remaster it as some people have mentioned.

 

[jaztermareal]

I just hope that we see some kotor / tor troopers, republic commando's and Force Unleashed troopers now HT have broken the seal.

They're doing a Remake with all new graphics and gameplay, but it's been in development hell.

I was never that big into Star Wars until I played Kotor back in 9th grade.

Revan was one of my pipe dream figures. I debating making a custom to fill the void. This is an instant PO for me.
