This is the first figure from this “new” line of figures. Though I wasn't too excited about reissues, I understand it’s necessity to keep the overall line going.
Here are my subjective and objective reviews for the figure:
Head Sculpt:
Not bad. It’s a linear move on Hasbro’s part. Previous issues of this figure have looked nearly if not just as good.
Rating 3.0 out of 5 Holocrons
Articulation:
Nearly SA, this is a fantastic figure for articulation, thus making it the ultimate representation of the character. The points of articulation are as follows:
Ball joint head
Ball joint shoulders
Swivel elbows
Swivel wrists
Swivel waist
Hinged hips
Ball joint knees!
Ball jointed ankles
Not much to improve on that.
Rating 4.5 out of 5 Holocrons
Paint Application:
Decent for the figure, but a little black wash to weather the costume might have really made it come to
life. But as an action figure it suffices.
Rating 3.5 out of 5 Holocrons
Overall sculpt:
Couple little nit-picky points. The ball joint shoulders really stand out and the bandoleer is too loose. Really not bad otherwise.
Rating 4.0 out of 5 Holocrons
Accessories:
This figure has some good accessories.
Rifle/staff-whatever that thingy is...
Removable helmet
Removable Thermal Detonator (but be careful not to
lose it)
Character specific display stand
and while the bandoleer isn't really an accessory it looks to be removable as well which works for the next section.
Rating 4.5 out of 5 Holocrons
Customization possibilities:
I had to think about this for a minute, but then it dawned on me, FEMALE JEDI!! Same colors. With a little paint and sanding this figure can easily be made to look like a female Jedi. Sculpt a new head and you've got that “HIYA” Jedi girl from the AOTC arena scene. Not too much more than that, but at least there’s some potential.
Rating 2.5 out of 5 Holocrons
Playability:
A good figure to play with. Lots of poseability. Be careful of the small parts and you've got yourself a
winner here.
Rating 3.0 out of 5 Holocrons
Overall Score:
The best Boushh figure to date and most likely ever. Even if you already have a previous version, I suggest getting this one.
