When SS got the 12" license I was geeked to buy soldier figures... Just stick with military stuff. But again as others pointed out, prices killed it for me.
I bought the last SS Vader, mostly because I wanted a nice "centerpiece" figure for my meager higher-end shelf, and I felt a SS Vader covered that nicely. I got the Endor Rebs and the RFT, but really not much has tempted me enough to buy over the years at the costs involved... Plus they went clone crazy for so long, I couldn't bite. And they're all over the place on what they DO make... Lots of missing characters, costumes, etc. Not many Leia figures it seems, etc.
I still love looking at it, and as Hasbro prices rise, I wish they'd take a page from SS actually, and start branching out to make a truly "premium" line... Premium paint apps, articulation, accessories, and the extra stuff like posed hands and specific heads. I'd pay $20 for a figure that delivered it all in one box. A 4" ANH Han like the current ANH 12" Han? You get the headset head, you get extra hands, you get a removable belt with a thigh strap and stuff, removable vest... I'd be into that for $20.
At the same time though, while I'd love the 12" figure, the price kills me. I just can't justify things I'd absolutely need to do the payment plan on or do without for quite a while. Nothing I can do with kids, cars, etc.
