Finally found this figure in the wild. And it's whole ankle joint was sideways LOL

Now we need a blue senate guard with both 2 heads for the different helmets

"Hey crayola, help me shut this vent. That's right, reach up there with your Staff of Ra and-."

I want a bandai kit of this. Bandai Has Mastered that gloss injected Tone of Red in the rg sinanju it would look spectecular

There is a very happy 10 year old back in 1983 who loves this figure!!!!!

If you added some shadowing and some dullcoat on the guard's armor and body, it would look amazing

@TheFwoosh

7 жыл бұрын

Oh definitely. I can see why they skimped on paint though, it being under the robes

I'm glad they still gave the figure a neck hinge even though the helmet doesn't allow much movement, that way if you swap it with a regular head it still has that articulation. I'm planning on getting extra heads for the two I'm getting to make Erstin Deez and the clone guard captain from Lords of the Sith.

LOL at the opening

I'm so buying 2 of these right now! It sucks, because I don't have an Emperor but I don't really care, I really love the design of the royal gaurds. Imo, this is where the black series really gets it right.

You know, I remember having him but not a lot of memories of actually playing with him. I just had to Google to even remember if there was a body underneath. It must have been my brother's figure, we had to share a collection way back when.

I find a bucket of hot water comes in handy for manipulating the soft goods when they won't play the game. Just a quick dunk and then go ahead and pose the figure. The fabric just hangs more naturally off the figure and dries exactly so.

You're on a roll, robo: one star wars figure after another these days...AND I LIKE IT!! I only wish these would find their way to a shop near me. All I have right now are your wonderful reviews :(. OT, love the figure as a diorama builder, I just wish Hasbro would make a special pack with a sitting Emperor and a Throne (maybe throw some consoles and a dignitary in the mix?)

Great review as always Robo, seeing them next to Vader makes me think they should be a just a little taller, but next to palpatine they look well enough, hopefully SHF eventually makes a Palpatine that comes with a Throne Accesory (at the very least a premium version that comes with it kind of like what they did with the first release of Vader) and these would look sick standing one on each side of Palpatine sitting in his throne.

The Fwoosh JTA who, though scumbags, are usually pretty accurate about upcoming releases, suggested it would include a Senate Guard, Shadow Guard, Royal Guard and one of Snoke's Guards, and as none of the 4 packs have contained direct repacks thus far, I'm hoping the Royal Guard is a Crimson Empire variant, with the staff and narrower cape and everything. I doubt Hasbro would go to the effort of sculpting the armour if they didn't plan to use it!

First it was a Monsterarts Godzilla here and there, then the Turtles; but when Mafex and Figuarts started to do Star Wars and Marvel...forget about it.
