Oh it's definitely one of the best figuarts to date. What they did with the hip joints and the angled utility belt is just genius. That mold is perfection. Give me a Shadow repaint bandai!

And I didn’t knew he appeared in the books or anywhere else, I didn’t read any of that.

Anyways, back on topic: I hope they add more caracters from TFA to their lineup, a Rey figure would be really awesome.



Reading your praise for it make sme regret not orderign a single one

It's cool, no harm done. FN-2199 had his backstory fleshed out in the Before the Awakening Novel, a collection of tales that predate episode 7, but grow it's world a bit. He's one of Finn's squad mates along with Slips & Zero. Slips is the trooper who smears blood on Finn's helmet at the films start. Nines feels betrayed that Finn, who for all intents & purposes was their team leader, turned his back on all of them.

Finn possibly recognizing Nines may be why he couldn't quite take him down in the film. But it still begs the question why he didn't react more to Nines' death after that. But yeah the novel helps explore their dynamic and set up that eventual confrontation at Maz's castle.
