It’s another week, which means we have another stunning Concept Series update by localgotal! This one is sure to be dear to the hearts of all of us that grew up with the Original Trilogy, and even moreso for those that never were able to add the elusive POTF vintage figure of this character to their collections back in the day.
What could it be? And how much longer do we have to wait to actually get a modern update for this character from Hasbro? Head to the forums and check this great concept out!
While I am passing on most of the 5POA figures due to their lack of appeal to me, I can’t help but look at the terrible paint applications many of these figures have (when you can actually find them, that is). Example being the Mission Series Obi Wan Kenobi… I’ve seen 8 samples in person so far, and of those, maybe 1 had a decent paint job on the face.
We see terrible paint apps on a lot of the Black Series figures too – such as the Stormtrooper, which looks hideous. Does Hasbro even care anymore? Will this start getting better with Rebels? Share your thoughts in the forums.
The current Yakfinities Customizing Challenge rolls on – Space Pirates! So far we’ve had many great entries and hope to see plenty more!
Entering a custom is easy – all you need to do is make a new custom of a Space Pirate of your choice, and share pics in our forums before the end of March.
