Unlike the lanky Deathtrooper, the Hovertank Pilot has a stockier build and a battle-warn appearance. Hasbro went above and beyond in giving this figure an in-universe\u00a0look with a\u00a0nice wash on\u00a0the off-white armor complete with\u00a0scuffs and scrapes. The articulation is what we&#8217;ve been accustomed to for this scale so the figure has no problem being posed in a wide and varying range of stances. He has no issue holding the new blaster with both hands in either a relaxed or aiming \u00a0posture.<\/p>\n<p><strong>CONS:<\/strong>\u00a0The jury is still out whether or not the accuracy of the deco for\u00a0this trooper is correct as we&#8217;ve only seen brief glimpses of the pilot in the trailers. If not, I suppose the door is left open for a screen accurate repaint in the future. This figure is exclusive to Toys&#8221;R&#8221;Us starting on Sept. 30 so he might be difficult to find initially.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.yakfaceforums.com\/TGuide2004\/html\/TBS\/exclusives\/imperial_hovertank_pilot.html\">Head to the toyguide<\/a>\u00a0for our detailed image gallery\u00a0and to judge for yourself whether this figure\u00a0is worth adding to your collection.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The\u00a0Yakface Toyguide\u00a0with our first Rogue One entry: the Toys&#8221;R&#8221;Us Exclusive 6&#8243; Black Series Imperial Hovertank Pilot.
