Also, I've been doing some examination of TFA 5 POA line as of late, and realized that it was only really a few steps away from being an okay line. I mean, we have plenty of vehicles and characters, plus some REALLY nice packaging, and none of the figures I've seen have been missing any MAJORLY important accesories(besides Rey and her lightsaber, but that was just an anti-spoiler thing), so the biggest thing holding it back is the articulation, and that's an easy fix, really.

Okay, let's establish that I will work within the realms of limitations that are going on right now with our scale. First thing to do is get rid of those stupid saws and whatnot that add zero play value and will ultimately get lost. Move the assembly cost of that accessory to the arms. Now, add elbow hinges, elbow rotations, and wrist rotations to the figure, and maybe some shoulder hinges and knee bends as a courtesy, but that's not entirely necessary.

And boom, your Jedi and Sith characters can hold their lightsabers with two hands now, and your blaster carriers can hold their blasters in a similar fashion. They're not as articulated as their Black series counterparts, sure, but they're better than this crap.


Just some thoughts.

I can do without leg articulation and even wrist movement for the most part since most of my figures just stand in cool poses but proper arm movement is a must.

To properly hold a blaster without looking ridiculous in literally any other pose would require wrist articulation. A lightsaber is a bit more flexible, but it's still good to have the option.

Pahahahah, why even try making a diorama with those 5POA figures? It just highlights their flaws even more.

Except for Mara Jade and Dengar who both remained at the bottom of the poll all the time. Nobody loves Dengar that much. Mara Jade still surprised me though, maybe since time has passed and she's no longer canon all of her support has withered away.

Regarding the fan poll, Starkiller wouldn't have been a legitimate win either, he was well behind Darth Talon before suddenly gaining tens of thousands of votes in a short space of time.

Had no idea I would need a whole slew of 6" tusken raiders so bad. Hope they release him with a rifle though.

It does, and three variant heads for its gaffi stick, assuming all the bits previews at the panel get included in the retail release.

Is it just me or did they resculpt the Leia had between Celebration and SDCC?
