Amen to that...
The Rebels are pretty high on my want list at this point. I'll be buying them up like I'm buying up Sandtroopers here right now. Customs are an obvious choice with this figure too, both styles, but I'm definitely happy that Hasbro finally put out a semi-decently poseable figure. The arms still aren't perfect but they're miles ahead in quality compared to the Fleet Trooper or Hoth Rebels, no doubt. Also the legs are the best one could have hoped for on the Rebel Soldier, so kudos to Hasbro there, and I love the holster for a side-arm.
I'll be decking these guys out with rifles as I get them, so they're not running around the forest with just pistols. Any way you slice it though, these are vast improvements and a sign of Hasbro recognizing when they dropped the ball in the past.
Now all I need for them to do is fess up that the POTJ Fleet Trooper is a sub-par action figure, and make an all-new one with super (or damn near it) articulation.
