This version takes the Evolutions figure from 2009 and changes up the deco slightly and gives it a nice vintage throwback blaster.\u00a0Fits in any TIE Fighter cockpit you have lying around thanks to ample articulation and a slender body. The overall deco is great with a mix of matte and glossy paint treatments to break up an otherwise solid black figure.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #444444;\"><strong>CONS:\u00a0<\/strong>Only way to obtain this figure was to order a set of figures\u00a0that you may not have necessarily wanted or needed, making it a relatively spendy figure. Still utilizes those weird legs that sometimes bend at the knee in unnatural ways and no ankle joints &#8211; but that&#8217;s a minor picking of nits.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #444444;\"><a style=\"color: #198bff;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.yakfaceforums.com\/TGuide2004\/html\/LC_DF\/tiepilot.html\">Head to the toyguide<\/a>\u00a0for the full image gallery and judge for yourself whether this figure\u00a0is worth adding to your collection.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #444444;\">You can also weigh in with your impressions on the figures we add to our toyguide on\u00a0<a style=\"color: #198bff;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pages\/Yakfacecom\/202559486798?ref=mf\">facebook<\/a>\u00a0and in our\u00a0<a style=\"color: #198bff;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.yakfaceforums.com\/\">forums.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The\u00a0Yakface Toyguide\u00a0updates resume with a series of entries covering the\u00a0Amazon Exclusive Droid Factory Set\u00a0of Legacy Collection figures.\u00a0We continue with the addition of the\u00a0Black Squadron TIE Pilot.
