What an contradictory and nonsensical comment at the same time.

Basically, you were expressing that you're willingly to *** on your own belief merley just because of the "cool looking" factor.

Well I really really liked the ROTJ Emperor in terms of his characterization and appearance. Prequel Emperor Palpatine never captured that for me.

But I?m sure this version of the Emperor will be very creepy and more in the vein of what I enjoyed in the ROTJ version.

Looks like Hot Toys is going all in with their Rebel Base display. Look forward to the next month or two for SW reveals.

What changes have they made?

EDIT: Nevermind, looks good! On the Hot Toys Rebel Base Facebook Page if anyone wants to see.
 
By the look of these poster pics they are plastering the walls with, a couple of Knights of Ten have surely gotta be on the cards.....

Seeing one of them in front of the Sith troopers made me think maybe they've been away serving the Emperor's bidding....would be a decent excuse for their lack of appearance I guess.

They need to get Rey/Daisy right this time. The latest Black Widow sculpt gives me hope.
 
If I wanted the KOR it would be all or nothing. Personally I don't want them, I just think it would be strange having just one.

I take the "beggars can't be choosers" mantra. Kylo with one of these guys behind him on one side and say a trooper on the other could look OK. But 2 would look better.
 
The demand for them seems high enough. I agree with davejames, they still look mostly like nameless goons hired by Kylo but then you can say that about most ancillary SW characters with masks. It'll come down to their role in the movie but.
 
C'mon Hot Toys, follow Hasbros lead and give us at least one...

There were some very interesting comments from Hasbro about the KOR. They said that Lucasfilm had shared no info with them about them and that they were holding back on making any more than that one until they know what sort of role they?ll be playing. If Hasbro are dragging their heels with the KOR it doesn?t bode well for Hot Toys making them. For comparison how well did those Praetorians sell?

Oh man......
 
The Knights of Ren definitely look formidable and badass as a group, but on their own the designs still seem awfully generic to me.

According to the reddit leaks (which are correct as Rey is holding the dagger in the latest trailer) the KoR are completely useless and are dispatched by Kylo pretty quick who then immediately gets tossed down a pit by Palpatine never to be seen again. Rey then defeats Palpy one-on-one with the help of Luke and Leia Force Ghost the same as Harry Potter - something even Yoda couldn't do. LOL! There are no words to describe just how bad this movie is going to be...
 
What are people hoping for from IX? I'm most likely in for Rey, Kylo, and hopefully a badass Palpatine. I think I'll get the Knights of Ren in the Black Series line. No way I can get all 6 in 1/6 from Hot Toys.

That being said, I really hope they end the trilogy strong and HT give us the complete figs with all accessories.
