FINALLY! They better make the whole Delta Squad. Then use that mold and make the Omega Squad! Of all games, THAT game should get a remake with enhanced gameplay controls.

Wow, they didn't even change the collar. Better use the skylu3design kit to make a custom, or have one made for you.

Looks like a Clone Wars Gregor is around the corner.

I feel like Hasbro is really missing the opportunity here to make figures that would sell like crazy. These Gaming Greats so far are just simple retoolings of existing figures with a new paint job. If they really wanted to get people excited they could take it seriously and release more than one or two of these a year and give us some characters that have stood the rest of time with fans. I have to wonder if Disney has put their foot down and said no to diving into characters from older games like the Jedi Knight series.

I know, right? The Bad Batch Hunter body may look like it's wearing Katarn armor, but it's just too damn skinny. Real Republic Commandos are seriously bulked up in comparison.

I don't think they have any command or anything stopping them from making characters from older games, it's just that the scope of this subline from the start has been "characters from games using as little new tooling as possible", and that's all the line was ever intended to be; don't wanna be giving a retailer-exclusive subline too many shiny all-new figures, y'know?

If they ever do get around to doing a Kyle Katarn, it'd require a lot more new tooling, and necessarily be a bigger deal, too big of a deal to stick in a retailer-exclusive subline.

Talk about lazy paint job, that game was hardcore gritty AF. This figure’s mostly white and lacking in proportion to the armorer up buff looking game models. Why are they not taking this line seriously, such missed opportunity.

Hopefully they make enough, but knowing star wars black series and anything with a helmet the past year, it will probably be difficult to find
