Easy peasy order on these today... lot of complaining about it on social media.
We went from pining away for glorified stands to bastardizing them apparently haha. I love this... ever since Jayson at Yakface rumored these, this is pretty much what I hoped for when thinking how it would compare to the JP set. They weren’t going to give anything too big and elaborate... Jabba’s was pretty simple when you break it down to part count and deco... looking the Bespin Freeze Chamber over closely, there is a lot of detail to it, but it’s fairly monochromatic.
Would I love the claw? Sure, but the claw is part of an all ceiling gizmo and the gantry is completely separate... them rigging up some half assed way to attach a whole other thing to the platform (which shouldn’t be there) would ruin its aesthetic, and realism. I’m fine with figuring out a way to do the claw myself ultimately. The platform is the scene, and Hasbro have said they did some things so customers can light it if they want (like how they did with the JP too), and I dig that stuff. My only meh is I think an Ugnaught or Bespin guard would’ve been good ways to get a cardback out for a fairly dull repack to complete the 92 for the people that give a flip about those cardbacks being out in some way.
