WHAT THE HELL.

I just looked, Krrsantan is supposed to be half a foot taller than Chewbacca.

At that price, with that double dip, the idea that he's not huge is extremely lame.

I thought the same thing, but apparently they faced off in the comics and Chewie is taller than Krrsantan.
This is the way.

Fair enough.  I’ll put the torches and pitchforks down. 

But for the price, I expected something bigger.

For a single TVC, the box is big.  ;D

Yeah, as an opener too, that box, which no doubt added substantally to the cost, as well as it being an exclusive, will be wasted on me when it's chucked into the recycling bin.

But as long as the figure is about 4.25", its height is in line with the actor..

At least they got the colors right on the production version. All the press pics had him closer to Chewie's coloring.

Someone on Facebook posted an image of Krrsantan with a number of other Wookiees - all of the ones from Revenge of the Sith, Yarua, Chewbacca and Rorworr.  Krrsantan looked a little puny in comparison!  The only one that he was noticeably taller than was Rorworr!

Got my ridiculously overpriced uh, SDCC version Krrsantan today.   Love the figure and all the accessories. 

Too bad we don't have a Trandoshan bar patron figure with detachable limb to pose with him...

Got mine yesterday too.  Honestly it's too many accessories.  Like, it just means I need to get a ziploc bag and label it and put all the extras in a bin somewhere, because they're everywhere.

I kept the paper envelope from the packaging to keep the extra accessories together.  There’s definitely a lot in this set, but I don’t feel like it and the special packaging are worth $40.  Although when I took it out of the shipped box the package seemed really reminiscent of some old Kenner offerings. 

I definitely want some Trandoshans for Santo to rip apart.  When I met Carey Jones at a con he said that the “fight scenes” with the Trandoshans were among the most fun he had playing the role.  Someone I follow on IG posed Krrsantan fighting Hrchek Kal Fas, but I only have one of those and that figure has gotten really expensive on the secondary market.

Mine just arrived and I like it.  The more action oriented head sculpt is really nice and I look forward to comparing this figure with the main line release when he shows up.  There are a lot of accessories with this guy, most of which I would not use with the figure.  Right now I have him holding the knives and he looks great!
