The sculpt and paint operations are very crisp and well executed. Looks gorgeous on the Vintage card.<\/p>\n<p><strong>CONS:<\/strong> The figure suffers from balance issues due to the incorporation of the rocket-firing feature. The ankles also seem to be sculpted in an angle that makes standing (without the aid of a display stand) a challenge. Hand sculpt (right hand) for holding the blaster is too wide and thus is prone to dropping the weapon. Despite this flaws, this figure is not one to pass on.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.yakfaceforums.com\/TGuide2004\/html\/TVC\/exclusives\/rocket_fett.html\">Head to the toyguide<\/a> for the full image gallery and judge for yourself whether this figure is worth adding to your collection.<\/p>\n<p>You can also weigh in with your impressions on the figures we add to our toyguide on\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pages\/Yakfacecom\/202559486798?ref=mf\">facebook<\/a> and in our\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.yakfaceforums.com\/\">forums.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The\u00a0Yakface Toyguide updates resume today with the addition of\u00a0the\u00a0Rocket-Firing Boba Fett Mailaway Exclusive\u00a0from the Vintage Collection.
