Got the Black Series Baylan Skoll and Shin Hati from Amazon. Yeah yeah, Hasbro somehow fumbled "6 inch scale" into "these figures should be 6 inches exactly" for these two but I still wanted them. Somewhat strangely I got the revision Shin with the updated orange blade but then Baylan is the first version with the red blade, just a roll of the dice when ordering online. Speaking of their lightsaber blades, Baylan's seems way too long like even if the figures were the right size this would still be too much saber so I won't be displaying him with the saber ignited. The teal-like weathering on Baylan's armor is definitely exaggerated compared to the show but on the other hand I kinda like how it gives the figure more color than just mostly black and dark grey. The beard does throw off the likeness a bit, it sorta fattens the lower face, but I still see Ray Stevenson here. Shin then has much more reasonable sand-colored weathering that's only on her armor and the final figure has a good capture of Ivanna Sakhno's face, but then the hair just being cast in this color with no paint wash or anything is pretty bland. So yeah there are some issues here, notably Baylan should've been about .25" taller and Shin about .33" shorter, but I still really like getting these two in my collection. I thought they were interesting characters in the show and then I especially dug that they had a Euro-Medieval knight aesthetic instead of the usual Samurai influenced Jedi robes, so my fanboy-wanting here is edging out the aforementioned flaws.
