My good friend Bob (Bobafett14) nabbed me a VOTC Luke, so to that end I'm set! Very cool. Now onto VOTC ESB figures.
No 3po, no Lando... Weird distribution methods Hasbro seem to be using with the VOTC.
As to Greedo, I was actually going to skip him because I felt this was one of the "rip-off" repaints. A figure who just saw a pretty good repaint not long ago and all.
The thing is though, and this is what prompted me to bite on this, is that the Rodians in ANH are practically army builders. There's at least 4 with Jabba when he confronts Han at the Falcon in the SE, and they closely resemble the first CT Greedo. I figure Wal-Mart Cantina Greedo makes just some nice diversity in the "gang of goons" Jabba would have.
So to that end, to me, those figures (And even POTF2) make ok army builders, to an extent.
And now OTC Greedo's happily taking a seat in the Cantina with Cantina Han... And all is right with the world.
Anything I can use to justify the purchase of, essentially, the same figure fr a 3rd time.
It'll get me through the Gamorrean, Tusken, and Jawas too, as well as TIE Pilots and CT STormies I perhaps run into.
The OTC Strmie really looks crisp. Quite nice itself.
