Personal Observations
The Rogue One collection saved one of the best figures for last! Admiral Raddus has emerged as a fan favorite character from the movie, and if you were lucky enough to find the figure of him, it will also likely become a favorite. This figure was hard to find in a lot of areas, due to it coming just as the Rogue One line was about to be put to rest. Admiral Raddus comes with a blaster that resembles a model often used by the Rebel Alliance, and with a large, projectile firing weapon. Neither of these weapons were used by Admiral Raddus in the movie, but can be fun for pretend. The projectile firing weapon is so large, that it makes it very difficult for him to use, but it is kind of fun to hold it yourself and blast figures. One of the best features about this figure is that Hasbro brought back the opening mouth feature that they used for Admiral Ackbar in The Force Awakens line. I personally don't think Admiral Raddus' mouth joint works as smoothly as Admiral Ackbar's, but it still works, and it's fun. This figure can sit and might fit in some vehicles, but he is a bit top heavy and tends to fall backwards. Hopefully Hasbro finds a way to make some more of the Rebel Alliance leadership and troops for Admiral Raddus to interact with, because as of right now, I think he's our highest ranking Rebel officer in the modern 5POA line. It would be great to get Mon Mothma, General Dodonna or a member of Admiral Raddus' Mon Calamari crew!
