Dark Lord of the Typos
I picked up the new Barada and Bib Fortuna figs today, and felt like pointing out some of the little details of the new Saga line. While the line will have its share of repaints, reissues, and frankensteins, it will have a number of good resculpts and new figures. This line is following in the footsteps of previous post-movie years with lots of good features and products for collectors.
The card backs are in the same style as the Separation of the Twins figures. Similar to the OTC figures, but with angular bubbles.
Each figure comes with a new style of action figure stand. The stands are almost flat, in a gray plastic. The top of the stand features and embossed movie logo, while the angled front has the action figure's name printed on it.
Each fig also comes with a "hologram" mini figure. These remind me of the old mini-figs that came with GI Joes, only bigger. And blue. The holos all have round bases approximately the size of a quarter. Embossed on the bottom of each base is a logo. Imperial in the case of my Stormtrooper and Vader. I would assume the heroes have a Rebel insignia on their bases.
