I love the fact that the helmet is a blend of the McQuarrie Concept Snowtrooper and an AT-ST Driver.\u00a0I have a general soft spot most McQuarrie art and the AT-ST\u00a0Driver\u00a0as it was one of my favorite figures as a kid. He fits inside the AT-DP&#8217;s cockpit well enough and can pull double duty in the Imperial Troop Transport so the versatility is nice. He&#8217;s packed 2 per case so populating your Imperial ranks and vehicles should be relatively easy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>CONS: <\/strong>As far and knocks against this figure, it does have some paint\/coloring issues. First off, to me, the overall tone of the figure seems too blue with even a hint of yellow. The character models in the series look more light and dark gray. Secondly, in most of the samples I&#8217;ve seen and have, the paint application on the &#8220;crotch area&#8221; seems thin allowing the darker blue to show through. Finally, the molding of this figure is sloppy\u00a0in areas, especially the back of each leg where you can see round circles from the casting process.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.yakfaceforums.com\/TGuide2004\/html\/Rebels\/basic\/SL14.html\">Head to the toyguide<\/a>\u00a0for the full\u00a0image gallery and to judge for yourself whether this figure is worth adding to your collection.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The\u00a0Yakface Toyguide\u00a0updates resume with the latest\u00a0entry in the\u00a0Saga Legends\/Star Wars Rebels\u00a03-3\/4\u2033 line.
