    Nah. Looks too robotic. The sculpt is so wonky. But Figuarts armored characters usually are

    One this I forgot to mention, Jedi Revan was available to order on EB games site. Managed to place an order before it sold out.

    I guess now I have to find the Battle Droid too.

    The face printing looks a lot better in this shot where my head blocked the overhead light in my room. It's a little shiny, and while the hair and beard do have some sort of a wash, it's very subtle, and could have used a bit more contrast.

    The cape is great. One of the best on a Black Series figure.

    Wait stop the presses. This cat has a double ball neck!

    And uh, a foreleg swivel? It's a boot cut, but above the boot, at the knee articulation. It looks pretty slick because it's sculpted like part of the fabric of his pants.

    Nice! Looks better than the Figuarts to me. Something about the Figuarts is weird but I don't know what, and it's not just the crappy cape.

    I think the hair on the Figuarts one has a similar issue to this one, only it appears to be straight white instead of light grey, and has even less of a wash. Because of Dooku's hairstyle, and the way it frames his whole face, it's kind of unnatural looking to see it have a definite edge instead of the sort of fuzzy outline a hairline would.

    In other words,

    Curious, whatever happened to that black series purge trooper? Just been hearing rumors that shipments haven't been too great.

    It's not great! I got someone looking for one and I will be no help whatsoever.

    Just that I saw 4 of them at a swap meet recently. They were all overpriced and one man bought all of them by haggling.
