Just got my first Star Wars figure, after resisting the genre for years (I'm a star wars fan since the OT, but didn't want to dive into Hot Toys...til now)
First impression: I like the accessories and the outfit looks really nice. He is a bit limited in posings but makes up for it in looking great in quiet any pose!
Great photos!
Wishes: I think making his bescar armor in diecast metal would make the figure even cooler. I was surprised how lightweight the figure was, when I took it out of the box. Compared to my Coomodel knight figures, which are all super heavy. A mix of both worlds would have been nice!
Other than that, I love him!
The CooModel knights are so heavy that I have them on the bottom shelf of a display cabinet. Same with Tamashii's C-3PO.
Weight limits display options. However, with Mando the metal would be more sparse and not so heavy.
For fully armoured figures I think the best of both worlds is plastic with a quality paint finish, as with Sideshow's version of Threepio who's light enough to display anywhere.
