I have a couple of the Black series 6". I like the heft of them, but hate the plastic they use for joints. I can't tell you how often Han Solo or my Storm Trooper has fallen over due to poses being too dynamic for the joints to hold over time. And by too dynamic, I mean just a wide stance.

I haven't had a problem with Han, and I've got him in a dynamic pose, he's fine. But the Sandtrooper is sorta disappointing. The knee and elbow joints in particular, feel very soft and rubbery, and the last few Marvel Legends (or movie themed 6" figures) I've been disappointed by those joints on those figures in the same way.

Figuarts definitely turned me against Hasbro and Mattel figures.

I already said. ALL OF THEM.
But no, I will try to get 2 Stormtroopers, maaaaaybe 3. Same with Royal Guards and Snowtroopers. ANd Sandtroopers. But even though TIE Fighter Pilots and AT-AT Drivers are my favorite Imperial designs (after the Royal Guard that is), I'll probably limit myself to 1 each of those.

I want to try to get 3 Storm Troopers...but I said the same thing about Shocker Grunts...and I have none of those.

So yeah, Mega Blaziken revealed.

[Matrixbeast]

Eh. Not a fan.

Why before Normal Balaziken? I don't understand.

[Den-O]

I have no idea. I mean it looks cool and all but it's not the design I would have suspected getting the SHF treatment next. Especially not before a standard form of Blaziken would.

I'd rather have Kabutops.

I can think of any number of Pokemon that could look great. Especially upright humanoid types. Blaziken just seems odd an odd choice.
