Refusing to cut out the sprue is the laziest shit ive ever seen.

They turned an action figure into a model kit
>>
>>11642156
Theyve had sprues for action figure accessories since the 80s. It makes them have more accessories then they would without the sprue but i kinda agree it is lazy but i still think its cool. I like the buildable mouse droid vader includes with him.

>>11642160
It has a star wars and imperial logo on it. It is very obviously meant to be a gimmick, not laziness....
>>
>>11642168
Yeah i think its cool also i said the mouse droid is cool in the other post. I genuinely want this
>>
>>11642168
I'll forgive it,only since the main figure looks fun and is complete.

Unfortanately it will likely be 10$. I'll probably pick up the whole line when it goes on clearance for 6$

The whole action verse line is what im excite for the most currently. Not much of a 6 inch collector as much as others on this board are (even if i still get a few now and then), the 4 inch kids line are more fun for me
>>
>>11642200
Yea but the price gas to be right

These look like really fun little toys for $10, and I love the little weapon tree he comes with, especially the mouse droid, that's such a cool little accessory. But I can't help but be disappointed at the rebrand. I don't mind the POTF2 style buff proportions, that's cool, but the line was really going in the right direction with the last few waves. Pic related was a nicely sculpted Vader with a cool new style of Lightsaber and improved articulation for $8. These were cool little toys to play around with, fudge into hanging around your other Star Wars toys, and army build on the cheap. Like a budget line in place of VC and something reminiscent of toys from the 2000's or so. I'm still gonna get these because I love fun and cheap toys, but it kinda sucks they're rebranding something that was already just starting to get good.
>>
That's way worse. Another ugly kid toy.
>>
>>11642508
Those figures failed to sell well for all the brands. That's why all the brands are getting this new rebrand with the new look. I think these may appeal to younger kids than those other ones from the last 2 years
>>
>>11642508
Im mad they never got to cad bane with the epic world of action series or the epic hero series. I am excited for these new action verse figures tho because of the bulky 90s-esque sculpting and proportions
>>11642522
>I think these may appeal to younger kids than those other ones from the last 2 years
Do you? I imagine they might since theyre now more cartoony and eye catching and include more accessories thanks to the sprue
>>
>>11642532
>theyre now more cartoony
Not necessarily more cartoony, but the limbs are closer in size to those Playskool Jedi Force or Rescue Heroes figures rather than normal 3.75" figs. Or like those Hero Mashers that were popular for many years
>>
>>11642539
To me thats cartoony because of cartoonish proportions but thats just my perception
>>
>>11642549
oh yeah I can see that. I figured you meant more cartoony sculpting but proportions of the body yeah I understand.
>>
>>11642508
Man I 'm glas I'm not the only one here that liked this line. I had fun picking up that Vader, Yoda, and Anakin. Also grabbed the Rex and Stormtrooper with the mechs because why the fuck not? They're fun and my kids love them. And that Phase I Rex isn't something I've got in TVC l, so it's a solid stand in with a cool blast effect on his pistol that adds some fun dynamics to make up for the lack of TVC articulation. Also why I love those new sabers since they're like the effects you could apply to the blade in TFU. Oh and the Epic Darktrooper is a much better toy and representation of what we got olin the show. Unlike the short, gummy, weak ankled POS I paid $25 for in TVC. I'm real sad it's not going to continue because of this new line. Was really hoping we'd get more vehicles and shit that would be fun toys and could easily work with TVC too.

If I wanted that I'd just go to any vintage toy store in the US and buy the original for the same price, or cheaper.
