    So, I have ordered the First order Snowtrooper Officer off Amazon twice now and they have sent me the normal figure both times. I even contacted customer support. "Jane" from I assume Malaysia was very little help here. I might just end up taking a pass on this figure.

    Pm'd. I noticed the Amazon listing for the Snowtrooper officer shows a picture of the regular snowtrooper.

    Does she have clear lightsabers? I mean, really pale colored ones?

    Im thinkin of making a custom darth maul based more on his star wars rebels look. Anyone have any suggestions to a body, or body parts to use? thinking marvel legends and black series would work.

    Hmm...the more I look at pics of Ahsoka the less I want her. It's the 'life like' sculpt that does it. I've been trying to look past it but she looks more like Shaak-Ti than the Ahsoka I love from CW/Rebels. I'll have to make a judgement call when/if I see her in person.

    I did find a Luke finally. The poncho is a bit big, but it's big in the movie too. It's a hard look to translate to soft goods on a figure. I dig it overall though.

    I bought 6 inch Black series Captain Phasma and 2 Jango Fetts when I went to see my doctor. Toysrus was just across the street from the office.

    I feel between her and Sabine, they did a better job with Sabine in terms of capturing the look.

    I think out of all the BS Luke's he looks the most like Mark Hamill.

    Just realized Black Series Jango Fett's jetpack is the short rocket. I like the long Rocket better.

    Yes, they're really pale white, almost clear, but there is a hint of blue in there. Would have preferred green, but the near-white was what she used in Rebels so I can't complain.

    From what I've seen I have to agree. I'm sure Ahsoka is a great figure but I can't shake the feeling that it looks more like an Ahsoka cosplayer than it does Ahsoka herself. :/

    Well, Dave IS a man of his word. These were his words during the Black Series Fan Voting last year.

    Just checked the Disney Store online. Elite Series Darth Vader is sold out. Stormtrooper, Anakin and Maul are the only exclusive ones left.

    Is the Elite Vader any good? I mostly collect the SW BS 6" and had it in hand. It seemed too big for my collection. We never got the BS Vader in Canada that I know of.

    When I was looking at all the figures, Vader seemed like the best one of the new batch (I didn't see Fett). I passed on it because I have so many Vaders and felt I would have no use for it so I got the last two Grevious they had instead.

    They are slightly larger. 7" scale or 1/10. Farmboy Luke was just posted on Walmart.ca. So keep an eye out.
