Check the very first post of this thread. There are repulsor hands in those images.
Have HT said they are now not including those?

The only hands this figure comes with are;

Two (2) pairs of interchangeable palms including:
- One (1) pair with improved articulations, movable fingers and light-up repulsors
(white light, battery operated)
- One (1) pair of forceful fists

The new BD figure actually has newly moulded repulsor hands as well as what appears to be a pair of fists and the usual articulated palms

There are no repulsor hands. The BD version has new molded hands that allow you do the infamous "I'm going to blast your face away" wrist/hand pose.

But seeing as the Mark VII is due next month, they won't be included in the original and only in the BD damage.

I'm curious, why did HT place "improved articulations" for the poseable hands
of old and new Mk VII? I previously thought they meant better repulsor shot pose.

Now, I don't know..

 

[dedguy]

That just refers to the articulated fingers as far as I know.

 

[SixthScaleEdward]

That's a minor gripe I have with HT. They throw in a word like "improved" but they're simply giving
the same thing as before.

 

[dedguy]

I chalk it up to poor translation.

Maybe the articulated figures are better now?

In what way better?

 

[IXI Nick IXI]

No idea. Just saying that could be what they mean

The "old" articulated figures were all pretty good.
Not sure how they could be improved.

 

[IXI Nick IXI]

Maybe so the hand can be up higher at the wrist allowing a traditional repulser shot pose?

 

[cozzie]

how bout they start shipping this one before announcing another!!!!!

It's possible to do that with only a little modification of the parts of current figures.

It's not the hand or wrist peg that stops that though its the flap of armour on the wrist, if you look at the new BD Mark VII you'll see there's a pair of palms with that 'flap' moulded on

 

[dedguy]

Yeah I have said this before. It's the design of the armor over the hand that makes the pose impossible. If you slide the wrist armor around to the bottom you can get pretty close to the classic palm up pose.

That's what i did in the image above.
I just photo shopped out the upside down wrist guard afterwards!
