That scene is downright laughable the way those JEDI MASTERS were killed. They were straight fodder. He jumped across the entire room, drew wayyyy back and put a hole through Agen Kolar.... .i mean...Ray Charles could have see that coming... That scene should have been written better as a scene with a sith Lord and 4 Jedi masters should have been one of the best things ever. ..and i get it..he's a sith lord and powerful as fugg... But those masters...yikes. BUT YES...give me Kit Fisto, Agen Kolar, and Saesee Tiin as figures!! Quote:
Boy I sure don't see any "treading water" with Black series lately... Grievous, Gamorrean Guards, Mace Windu, Padme, Battle Droids, Holdo, Dengar... the main Solo cast... Sure, we're still missing a few key players from Rogue One (Bohdi & ...Forrest) but the character selection lately has been amazing with good coverage from all the movies. There was a slow-down for awhile after Rogue One, with so many Jyn and Cassian figures that pegs got clogged up- but I feel they've been on an awesome roll for a while now.
..and I might collect about 25% of what is released as Black Series figs. But they damn sure have been doing a much better job and giving a much better selection over the last few years. EVEN THOUGH product distribution still leaves a lot to be desired. lots of people. I didn't even like Solo(it rates LAST on my list of Star Wars films) but there were certain figures I wanted from the movie. Pimp troopers Val Rio Durant L3-37 and i def snagged Holdo. on average tho'..my desire for a figure ties to how i liked them in the film. But not always. I didn't necessarily care for L3-37 in the film but i wanted the droid. what's good Skoob.?!?!?!

What now Joe???!!!! This Palpatine probably isn't even from ROTJ. It is probably from the new movie and we just don't know it yet!
Really though after the trailer this release makes much more sense. |

Of course, at least finding it at Walmart would mean I have a high chance of the box being intact. With Amazon, it's a roulette in how they are going to ship it.

Might as well make a disney animated movie where he (palpatine) accidentally enters the body of a taun taun. Call its the emperor of the siths new groove.

So the question is do I get this now, or wait for the inevitable rerelease with the lightsaber they're gonna do at some point?

As Joe mentioned he never had the lightsaber in ROTJ so I dont know that we will get him like this with a lightsaber. Last edited by Bearjew; 04-14-2019 at 04:10 PM.. |

I would guess that they will not do a rerelease in this format any time soon. He may come out in the archive wave without the throne and an added lightsaber. My guess is that we get him in whatever capacity he shows up in from the new movie.

Hehe.
Speaking of which, these super close ups I do for technical reasons, but they don't represent what it looks like at normal distances in your hand or on shelf. It's actually pretty well done. Close tho, the color blocking is weird. |

The lightning hands on yours are a lot better than mine. I never intended to display him with them long term but it's still a shame.

A mix. Ones with hand missing - Emperor's Wrath, some with a swapped head.
https://news.toyark.com/2016/02/28/s...gallery-197340 And some of the Wave 5 ROTJ version: https://news.toyark.com/2014/10/15/b...gallery-141998 The legacy pack version is sharper, but the robe configuration is from earlier movies. And I think the head has a different peg method so won't pop onto these other 2. |

This looks really good. Don't collect the star wars toys, but still like to look at the figures coz they can sometimes do amazing work at very small scales.

The grey paint used at the end of the fingers extends too far into the lightning and sort of makes them look more like roots at that area.

Ahh, that sucks. I guess they got a little aggressive with the paint on that one.
