Kinda wish they'd remake the guard like how the vintage collection one looks so it can have the cloak and still hold a 2 handed weapon. I think the hot toys version is the closest to 'canon' appearance under the cloak. Still a fun character that I'm surprised never got made into canon in some capacity

Now we need a Star Killer.

6:00 Now can we get green, grey, purple, & yellow/orange? MORTAL KOMBAT!!!!!

Never played the game, but picked up this fig because it's cool. I have the older multipack too. It is Star Wars after all, and it helps creates balance in the Force. 😉

Mike love the videos. Great job. Keep doing what makes you happy.

I’d like him more with the traditional guard cape.

I wanna pick this guy up, but then again it's like, eh, but I'll probably get it anyways. Lol. The blue is a great shade, it goes really good with the black. Can't go wrong with more guards. Great review 👍

Another great review Mike

didnt realize I need this, thanks mike. I thought it was an exact remake of the first senate guard from the 4 pack

Love your opening Mike. Best on KZread!

WOW..... I like this figure and I played the game they also have a gold trooper that's like them I'll have to get him..

Great thorough review, Mike. I love this figure! Of course, I only paid ten dollars for it. It has great shelf presence, if you ask me. Put him next to any Imperial heavy and it will look great.

AliExpress is awash with this guy and and the ERG. It's nice to see the armour, but I really need another Prequel senate guard

I like this figure as well! I've liked all the Gaming Greats so far!

I love the look of these figures, but the legs on these are always a mess. Most of mine have one leg longer than the other causing all kinds of standing/posing problems. These are some of the hardest figures to get to stand straight up. I recently bought some figure stands with pegs for the 6” black series so maybe I’ll try those peg stands out on these guards. Thanks for the review!

As kid I saw Return of the Jedi when it came out and remember loving the look of the Emperor's Guards. They looked so cool and mysterious to me, even though the helmet is totally impractical. I have two of the Black Series Palpy's body guards. My only gripes are the rubbery plastic of the knees and I think the hands are a little large. Like you Mike I'm a sucker for troopers etc, so this repaint looks good to me. As for price rises, yeah things are going up, but Look at McFarlane Toys. They seem to be able to make bigger action figs for a better price. As always great vid Mike.

I find it ironic that Hasbro changed the packaging to fit more for less shipping., but increased more cardboard and plastic for waste in doing so.,which now they're trying to reduce. Oh the irony Cheers Mike

Just found one at my gamestop & its great! Im actually glad its a gamestop exclusive because there figures are always available online & instores. Also they always have sales too. I ended up paying $21 instead of the original price since it was on sale. Ive learned to never preorder or buy right away from gamestop, just wait for one of there promo sales instead

I guess I'm like you. I'm not a troop builder, but I like having at least one of every type of trooper.

Mine was missing the blaster

Yeah Mike..... there's is Gold guard to from the ( Force Unleashed )...

Good review, not a fan of this release lol.. looks weird, I was really hoping for a rerelease of the shadow guards in all black with the lightsaber staff..that one looks rad, he never got a single release, he's very pricey on the secondary market.

Yea I like this figure and I got it for a discount price

Irritating that they put a picture based on the game that shows how the figure is different. Even imp crosshair was consistently wrong

Have you ever thought of buying those glasses for color blind people? With all your figures you collect I think you would be blown away with how they look. Also would make a good video of you seeing your collection for the first time in color.

I literally saw either a KZread commercial or a TikTok clip about them, and Mike immediately came to mind!

nah. i've thought about it, but i have absolutely no interest in trying them. I hate those reaction videos, and its not like i see on black and white or gray. its just that some shades that are close just look the exact same to me. I have a real problem telling Green/Yellow/and Orange apart sometimes. Depending not the shade. But I can see colors.

This looks so wildly inaccurate to the source material from the game, it’s pretty disappointing. With Zaalbarr having been the only Gaming Greats figure from KOTOR for a while, it REALLY feels like the target audience for these figures aren’t fans of the games, but people who want just another wookie, just another imperial guard, just another trooper, etc.
