Personal Observations
This is easily the best prequel based Yoda action figure that I have ever seen. Just everything about him looks fantastic from his pose, his face sculpt and the colour of his skin, with just one possible exception. Yoda's hair is too thick. But really, I don't know if there even is a way to make Yoda's hair look just right on a plastic toy this size, so it doesn't really bother me. Unlike other 5POA figures that have swivel necks, Yoda has a ball jointed neck, enabling him to not only turn his head, but tilt it at different angles. His plastic robe is stiff and limits how well he can sit, as you can see in the middle picture, but on the plus side, the stiff robe allows him to do some cool action poses while still standing unsupported by your hand or a display stand. It's too bad Yoda didn't come with his cane, but besides that, I can't say enough good things about this little Jedi Master! |
