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

[Stryker2011]

I've never understood this. Wouldn't you want a versatile actor for this role?

Or someone unknown…?

It ain’t Shakespeare.

TW says the expected arrival of Revan is next week

Good grief… I don’t trust these guys anymore after screwing around with my order (with one still outstanding that I still never got) and with other customers orders still being screwed over.

Well, at least there is a release date for those that pre-ordered it from a very reliable supplier in Asia.

It doesn't need to be Shakespeare to want a good actor for a role in a movie.

What’s wrong with Shadow the Hedgehog?

I still say it doesn't become "in stock" at Sideshow until after the first of the year, but my credibility has obviously taken a huge hit!

Ps. I've never played the game, know nothing about the character but really glad I have this on PO...so visually striking!

Your credibility stands...I was just poking fun lol.
In all seriousness,the game is outstanding.
Although some people hate it,the EU is a goldmine.
The novels,comics,figures and games are some peek level star wars for me.
Yes,there are some questionable stories,but there are a lot of diamonds in that rough.
A great figure,along with Starkiller,to have on order.

It looks good. Unfortunately, other than showing off their PS skills at adding backgrounds and enhancing light saber blades, none of the shots seem particularly inspired when it comes to posing. Same basic stances over and over, no shots from the back or a good profile.

Waiting for the usual suspects to show this figure off effectively.

Not to mention the fake lightsaber light that shows up nowhere in reflections and casts no light onto the figure

Just like the game then. And all 6 of Georges movies.

It took Disney to finally give us lightsabers that cast light.

I only really played the game this very year during a Switch sale after decades of hearing about how good it is. And the praise was warranted. It's certainly showing its age a bit, but the strength of its storytelling and character work is without peer and might be some of the very best the Star Wars universe has ever crafted. It's a game that's well deserving of a remake simply to keep the story itself in cultural circulation, but the original is still an easy recommendation. As I mentioned earlier, a good story and good character stands the test of time, and Revan is one of those creations.

Yeah, but when they're showing off a figure that exists in real life, it would be nice to see what the figure and accessories actually look like.

My point about the light and reflections was that none of the light seems to be coming from the accessories. I doubt they even have them switched on

Not sure if you know this, but I was Revan the whole time.

First video I've seen about this release.

Maybe it’s just the lighting in video but I hope the blades are more vibrant than that. I was expecting the same purple we got with Mace and the red from ROTJ Vader.

 

[Chamberlian]

Confirmed the blades aren’t as vibrant. One step forward… two steps back HT

 

[Stryker2011]

Are they even on?

 

[Garlador]

Are they even on?

The above picture doesn't look like they're on. I would hate to think they were if that's the case.

 

[chrisstbh]

I don’t care about the blades. They never look like actual lightsaber blades so vibrancy makes no difference.

 

[Chamberlian]

They aren’t on, I’m talking about when they are off. With Ep2 Anakin, Mace, and ROTJ Vader the blade colors were much more vibrant (off) than in the past. Unlike like Mando Luke’s who barely looked green.
