It's on Disney XD, the 4th (and final) season is starting later this year. Seasons 1 and 2 are already out on Blu-Ray and DVD, and Season 3 will likely be on Blu-Ray and DVD soon.

My Comcast for some reason does not carry Disney XD, so I just download the episodes and watch them that way.

Dude, Grievous was beaten by a fourteen-year-old girl... twice. As for the rest, what have they accomplished within the realm of the television shows besides managing to repeatedly not kill Jedi Prinze Jr. and his merry band of graffiti artists? Palpatine basically spends the entirety of The Clone Wars droning on and on about how totally and unconvincingly not-evil he is and only ever interrupts his customary skulking around in his office to go bitchslap Maul when ol' horn-head looks as though he might actually go off and do something for himself.

They look terrible in person. Especially the skinny legs (Sabine's and Revan's).

Revan's legs could've been twigs and it wouldn't have mattered since he has a full skirt, just as long as he can stand which he can.

No they don't. I have Revan and two Sabines sitting on my desk right in front of me and there is nothing wrong with the proportions of their legs or any other part of the figures.

Yeah, a full skirt which rides halfway up his calves to expose his skinny legs.

There's nothing wrong with Sabine's proportions... if you think the average Barbie doll is a good example of realistic female body dimensions. Big head, skinny limbs, tootsies that a Chinese foot-binding enthusiast would die for...

But really, weird proportions aren't exactly unprecedented in this line, after all, what with ANH Han's giraffe neck, Bespin Luke's ape-arms, Jango's tiny feet, RotS Obi-Wan's shrunken head or the fact that only a Japanese prison-camp inmate would be able to get his forearms inside the Stormtrooper's vambraces.

Not even sure why the proportions matter when Sabine is a toy based on a cartoon.

Because, just like Thrawn, Ahsoka, Kanan and Hera, they were obviously going for a more realistic look for the character that would blend in with the other Black Series figures. It's just that, for some reason, Sabine seems to have got stuck halfway through the transition process.

[Dr Kain]

I'm okay with that though. Plus, she's like a 15 year old girl, so she's not going to have beefed up proportions.

Well, if that's the way you want it, I think they still have three or four at my local Wal-Mart...

When he's standing straight it goes all the way to his ankles. I'll just borrow a couple of pics from Toyark's own review to illustrate the point.

[Jester]

Sorry man, but it's a case of...

[lordbest]

If you think this is badly proportioned I can only assume you've never seen a young woman before.

[Dr Kain]

Yeah, I don't see anything wrong with either of those figures.

Alright, I don't have a side in the argument(more of a strictly 3.75 inch guy), but let's see how she compares to a generic image of two "healthy young women".



Let's see what the majority thinks when comparing them.

She might be a tad thin in the legs (and maaaaaaaybe in the torso), but by no means is she horrendously proportioned as Jester is describing.

Not very well, I'd say. For one thing, her boots would basically have to be made of Lycra, not leather, to give any kind of realistic width to her calves for someone who's supposed to be very athletic. Another issue is that her head is almost as wide as her torso. Certainly, it's visibly broader than the much taller Kanan's, giving her a bit of that almost fetishized look that you see in Bruce Timm's post-New Batman Adventures female character designs.

[Penguino]

Dude you're a bit extreme to be honest...

[Dr Kain]

Her head is as wide as her torso? Dude, that's a helmet on her head.

I posted a photo of the figure sans helmet in my previous comment for illustrative purposes, but the link seems to be broken.

[lordbest]

It's nowhere near as wide as her torso, and teenagers have a larger head proportionally to their torso anyway.
