Wasn't everybody complaining in the McQuarrie R2/3PO & Luke thread that all exclusives should be repaints and not all new sculpts?? Well this is a repaint and I'm eagerly waiting to get my mitts on it. The Scout has always been my favorite trooper since I was a kid, so I'm looking forward to an all black one. We'll be getting a new speederbike soon enough so I don't blame Hasbro for giving it a final hoorah....at least I hope it's a final hoorah.
I'm wagering the pilot shall blow though, as he's non-descript in the text there, and thus I dont' think we're getting a cool Baron Fel figure just yet.
That's a pretty cynical stance on the matter. I would think that Hasbro would repaint the Saga Gold TIE Pilot in 181st colors in this instance and pack that with this Interceptor. I think that's one of the more underrated army builders we've gotten in the past 3-4 years.
If it were a better figure I'd agree... It's an ok figure, but I don't really see it as "underated" at all since people liked it but it lacks a lot of the poseability (in the arms only though, it's close) of troopers... but as army builders go it's short of greatness to me. Needs work. I thought it needed work in the arms department at the time of its release actually, and stand by that. Nice sculpt though... Given the Death Star Trooper though, it's not even in the ballpark with him.
But that aside, a TIE Pilot with a red stripe's... "eh" at best even if he was a better figure I think, especially since the EU character these Int's are specifically related to really wasn't just a TIE Pilot with a red stripe... It'd have been nice to get a little better figure but I also am one of the first ones to hate exclusive pack-ins too so that's a double-edged sword I guess. It might mean Fel's on their radar though, which is nice for fans of his.
