6/10 Bantha Skulls

The set is about average, maybe slightly above because of the accessories.  Ki-Adi appears in some kind of Tatooine Farmer Jedi outfit.  It’s a new sculpt, and looks pretty good.  There’s some nice sculpted details on the outfit.  He has a soft goods skirt, which works well with this figure, allowing him to move his legs freely.  Other than his missing ankles, he’s SA.  He comes with a lightsaber, which fits reasonably well in his hand.  He also comes with a breathing mask, which fits snugly on his face, and a big hat, which also fits perfectly on his cone-head.  This would be an excellent figure if he had ankle joints.  As it is, it’s a good one, even if it is a bit obscure to the non-EU fan.

Sharad Hett isn’t very well articulated.  He has swivel/cut joints at the forearms, elbows, and knees.  He has a swivel neck, which is a pretty rare throwback these days.  He has no ankle articulation.  His head sculpt is decent.  He kind of looks like a cross between Michael Ironside and Bruce Willis (not so much like his comic representation).  He’s got some nice sculpting details and paint washes over his outfit.  Hett comes with a Tusken Raider mask that fits pretty well over his head.  He comes with a red lightsaber and a gaffi stick.  Both fit nicely into his hands.  The gaffi stick appears to be made out of moist pasta.

If you enjoy this comic, then you’ll probably like the figures well enough.  If you stay away from EU, you probably won’t like these figures.  I like the Ki-Adi, just because the hat is silly.

Sharad Hett’s head is not ball jointed; his entire head and neck turns
he can’t hold his saber and gaffi stick at the same time, so I put the saber in his right hand and glued the gaffi stick into his left
he looks OK with the Tusken mask on, but it’s cut off pretty severe at the bottom, and the tubes on top are spaced further back than what I am used to, giving it a bit of a Frankenstein meets the Mummy look, but is close to the comic drawing
the blue of his tunic does come pretty close to the comic color scheme, and has a nice wash to make it look dirty
he has ball jointed shoulders and knees, with swivel cut elbows and waist but no ankles
not much hip articulation because the tunic is pretty stiff, and longer than the comic shows it to be

Ki-Adi Mundi is sweet for being yet another ki-Adi Mundi figure
he comes with a face mask that fits over his face like a breath mask
the sombrero is kind of dull, but some nice detailing otherwise with the chinstrap
he has a ball joint head, shoulders, elbows and knees
swivel forearms, waist and the typical hip joints
Ki has a cloth skirt under with some of the plastic tunic in front, giving him much more poseability
his right hand can’t hold the saber very well, and looks like he is using a Jedi mind trick
his left hand can hold the purple blade saber much better
I didn’t know Ki-Adi Mundi was a southpaw

I give this set 6 Bantha Skulls out of 10
