PROS: Another Amidala outfit is crossed off the want-list! Excellent sculpt and ornate paint apps – especially on the main body. The interchangeable headdresses are a nice touch as is the removable soft goods. Inclusion of the blaster, though superfluous, is a nice bonus too.
CONS: Color of the outfit looks a bit off as this looks more “butterscotch” than “mustard” – hardly worth passing over for this assessment though.

PROS: Throw your 2002 version in the dumpster, ’cause this one is definitely the best (and last) version you’ll ever need. Great fabric and tailoring for the poncho.
CONS: Hair color seems to be a bit dark – a light “highlight” wash would remedy that though.

The Yakface Toyguide updates resume today with the addition of Obi-Wan Kenobi from the Vintage Collection’s Attack of the Clones wave.
PROS: Hasbro took the awesome 2009/2010 Legacy Collection sculpt and improved the deco, gave him a Jedi robe and corrected the paint deco to the lightsaber hilt.
CONS: Still, no extra lightsaber hilt to attach to his belt.

The Yakface Toyguide updates resume today with the addition of Zam Wesell from the Vintage Collection’s Attack of the Clones wave.
PROS: An excellent revision to the previous figure sculpts. Loaded with articulation and ornate details in the costume, Interchangeable head is a nice touch.
CONS: The Clawdite head sculpt doesn’t look much like the on-screen version – the 2002 figure seemed to capture the likeness better. Haircolor is wrong for the human head- not a deal breaker though as we don’t see her without her helmet in the film. Not having a detachable arm is a step backwards.
