Not a great place to put the Purge trooper.

Three nice figures, one bad 3-pack. Hope the Purge Trooper gets wide distribution by itself.

I will buy this set. I skipped the single Kenobi Kenobi because that midtorso joint was not to my liking, but here it looks hidden by the cloth piece. And Teeka is great, I love collecting Jawas.

The Purge Trooper will sell off easily enough, I already had a friend claim it if I don't want it. And I don't need that.

Imagine that--a TVC multipack with the main character in the box! Paging Kal Kestus and the Bad Batch!

I'm going to get 2 of these sets.  They look pretty good, but I can't wait to see one of these new Obi-Wan figures in person.  His likeness has been a little challenging at times.

The Purge Trooper looks excellent, but it looks like it was largely built on a Clone Trooper body.  Hasbro goofed on his blaster, too.  They gave him a standard E-11, when the Purge Troopers in the show had the E-11D that is utilized by the Death Troopers.  Apart from that?  I am really hoping that Hasbro offers these in a Troop builder set down the road.  Because I don't want to be troop building these at $50 per set.

Teeka looks really good.  And I've long been of the opinion that you can never have too many Jawas.  My one hope is that he has better articulated legs than the Offworld Jawa.

Mid move and just found out about this!  Still available for those who need to order!

I ordered two of them.  It went live just a couple of minutes before the clapout at my kid's school.  Thanks to Jayson for providing links so quickly, because I was able to get it pretty quickly using the Amazon app.  And thanks to some family that got me Amazon gift cards for Father's Day - this was my gift!

Got a delivery update from Amazon that says this is shipping next week. 

Will be glad to get some more Obi-Wan figures, but still puzzled as to why they thought it was a good idea to put that army-builder Purge Trooper in there.

Agree, but we know it won't be a one-and-done. It will 100% get rereleased at some point soon. I'm still just sticking with my two sets for now and will wait to pick up any more duplicates.

I wonder if they put the Purge Trooper in there in a cynical bid to drive additional sales?  I would not put it past them. 

I’m still hopeful for a troop builder 4-pack.  But if they do it they need to include the correct blaster!

Same.  It’s another perfectly okay but totally unexciting offering from Hasbro.

Post by: Nicklab on December 8, 2022, 12:28 PM
I received mine, too.  It's okay.  But not great.

Obi-Wan - The figure sculpt is identical to the single carded Obi-Wan, but with different paint apps for the shirt.  The softgoods are different, and there's a backpack included.

Purge Trooper (phase 2) - It looks really good.  But again, re-use of parts seems to be the theme of the day.

Teeka - I haven't opened this one yet.  But outwardly it looks like the Offworld Jawa in Tatooine colors, and with different accessories.

Overall, I like this set.  I’m a sucker for anything Obi-Wan, the Jawa is nice and the Purge trooper will look nice next to my Gaming Greats version.

Amazon had this for $20 the other day and I wanted more Purge Troopers.  Toys For Tots is getting a handful of Obi-Wan's and Jawas. :)

This set is down to less than $21 again - great deal to army build Purge Troopers or Jawas ->  https://amzn.to/48L3xcE

I stopped at six total, but if it drops again I'd grab a few more and keep the rest for parts I suppose.

Very tempting!  The trooper and Jawa offer a number of possibilities.  And the Obi-Wan figure could be some really good custom fodder.  But I really haven't had the time to spend on that kind of project.
