    Not that I know of. If Mezco ever gets around to to releasing Kirk's chair you could paint that black and get reasonably close.

    With the difference in scaling, is it possible to mix Black Series Lightsabers and Figuarts figures? I kind of want to save up for Rey but I just know she's going to have a different Saber by the next movie.

    Went to a toy show this morning and walked away with sealed Chewbacca and ROTS Kenobi for $28 total! Never wanted them until I recently picked up Boushh and Cody

    Just a quick comparison with the original Vader with Figuarts Maul and their respected lightsabers (I do have the newer Vader).
    DSC00573.jpg Switched over.
    DSC00574.jpg So that interns that the Figuarts saber one looks better on the Black Series and the Black Series on the Figuarts looks muted and that you have to jam the Black Series version into the smaller hands of the Figuarts.

    Does that help out @MatrixOfWumbo?

    Yeah, figuarts sabers look the best out of the ones I have. The light up kit sabers look great too but just no detailed hilts.

    I think so. I just wanted to make sure it will fit because if I buy Figuarts Rey and they give her a new lightsaber in the film a month later I don't want to have to make another 50 dollar purchase. I would just get the Balck Series version.

    I'm actually now contemplating the Figuarts Kylo over the Throne Room version. You lose the cape, but the special version is already more expensive.

    Why anybody would want either toy...but, hey, stores and their iron grip on those dusty Zuvios, you gotta do what you gotta do I guess.

    Eh, you know, I've never really cared for most of the aliens or troopers in Star Wars. Even if I did, I would feel ripped off paying $20-$25 for that small figure.

    The size is an issue. But for other aliens (Ackbar, for example) the sculpt can be leagues better than humans.

    Is this an exclusive? I preordered some other FO Trooper from Amazon with all sorts of accessories but his seems different.

    I don't see what the issue is :) 

    I just saw the Acbar 2 pack as well. Had to pass cause I'm not paying $45 for an Ackbar. Maybe when I get another coupon or sale.

    He's a Target exclusive Executioner from the upcoming movie. The trooper you preordered from Amazon is a Megablaster Heavy Assault Trooper.

    Just when you thought Zuvio was finally gone from the shelves... he's baaaaaack!

    We should all give friends and family a Zuvio for Christmas this year. Together we can deplete the world's retail shelves of any remaining stock of this figure.

    What we should do is organize a series of designated dumping grounds. Towns with two of a store, let's agree which one we're going to buy the dusty overstock from and which one we're going to return it to. If that doesn't produce results, expand to the county level and flood a single location with returns. Someday, all of the Zuvios (and Speed Demons and Energon Ironhides and ET cartridges and...) will all be in one place where lightning can strike them in a blinding flash of infinite justice and free the world of their tyranny...
