the gb's suck cause theyre warmers. i actually think that, save the talking r2 and lightning emperor, hasbro chose all excellent rots sculpts for this collection. you cant say the royal guard, padme, 3po, wookiee, and pilot obi are horrid, though i hate the gb's status as ******* warmers as much as the next guy  ;) .

the tpm obi is actually a NICE kit bash, though its articulation is limited at best.

barada, yeah, he sucks *****, but he's at least good for scene creating purposes. with the carkoon wave's release and that of the carkoon bp ive been trying to save up for the skiff to create scenes with these characters. the new barada's paintjob is better than the POTF2's, at least. my POTF2 Barada was literally thrown out months ago  ::) .

and the padme, despite her pinhead, still has great articulation and is 1000 times better than both of the previous two AOTC padmes (excluding the lars homestead one, which also sucked) combined.

besides that, i have to agree with you on everything else on your list.  ;)

Artoo:
Yeah, the figures were good & all but they shouldn't of done the second H&Vs period, by trooeprs I also meant the guard & wookiee. Obi has a better version that I have never seen before out, the TSC one w/ soft goods. Padme & 3PO are OK, but 3PO has a much superior version warming alongside this version. Padme dosen't need to be re-packed she warmed last year.
