I'm gonna still pass on grievous but you're right on the paintjob, it's night and day. I'm bummed he's inaccurate with the hands and all mostly so I'm just not interested I guess, plus I hated him the first time around.
The Cody I like, but Jared's pics make his legs look oddly wide apart (not terribly so, but noticeable). It's weird.
Far from perfect, I'll agree with that for sure. Ankles would have helped... I usually don't care much, but they would've helped. And I really don't understand the NEED to sculpt new legs. I mean, would anyone complain if they'd re-used the SA Clones legs on this figure? I know the scarring on the armor looks ok and all but in the grand scheme of things I could've done without it if it meant better leg articulation, and if they have the mold (and how many freakin' Clone molds with SA legs do they have at this point? I mean, re-use the Evolutions Clones, the Commanders, whoever you wanted's legs but Bacara's actually) then the $ is not an issue even for them... It cost more to sculpt up the new legs on Cody, but these are the times that make you wonder why Hasbro doesn't cut corners in a smart way like that, instead of the usual cheap way that makes a figure worse rather than better.
Dumb.
