just picked up the anakin evolution and i have more than a few complaints, that while ive heard them before im frustrated and must vent.
only 1 blue blade? wtf hasbro. What if I want to figures posed with lightsabers?
2 anakin hilts the same. You know, he did have a different hilt in ep3, its kinda the one luke gets. why didn’t they just repack the one from the fist rots anakin? is that too hard.
no ball joints on aotc anakin ankles. they’ve done this many times, i like those ankle joints. why not now?
no ball joint on rots anakin elbows... c'mon man... they so cool and the othe 2 figures have them.
no removable hand on vader. he has the rotj head. why no chopped hand? sure you can pull the plug from the swivel but thats way too far up, and has a huge ugly peg. >< nore can he hold his lighsaber in his right hand. i know theyre going for the outsteched pose, but then give us an extra hand....
vader cloak. now, i don’t love soft goods, and generally don’t prefer them at all. but most of them are tolerable. but this cape has teh same problem as the one on 500th. they make it as a half circle, so it just hangs off his neck. why can they just stitch it so it drapes over his shoulders and not look retarded. they did it with commtech vader. or if they put a wire along the bottom so you could mold it to hang straight down instead of flaining out.
vader chain. it looks good but they make it big enough to fit around his neck... and then they use the head post to hold the cape on. so the chain is three times longer than it needs to be and sticks straight out. same problem on last 2-3 vaders. >< im going to stop buying vaders soon cause they look retarded, like he cant dress himself.
helmet - maybe this is just mine but the helmet is real loose and doesn’t mesh well. just by looking at him you can tell it comes off. freeze frame vader’s looks better and stays on tighter.
maybe im nit picking but I was really excited to find this set and am now pretty disappointed. they’re great figures so I guess I shouldn’t complain but it seems like hasbro only goes so far and then cuts back and falls short. I cant get over the one blade and 2 hilt things, as well as them not using the correct hilts.
