So same 3 heads as the 6” figures. Are those the only three masks?

Zzzzz where’s the Royal Guards damn it!!!

I think each of the TWO different Guard packages comes with two heads... so 4 total.

I think each of the TWO different Guard packages comes with two heads... so 4 total.

Unless the differences are very minor, they both seem to come with the same 'plain' head. One version has the 'hat' head and the other the 'pointy' head as exclusive heads to each version. But they both seem to have that plainer head. Again, maybe I'm just not seeing the subtle differences with them. It took me a few weeks to even realize there was more than one helmet for these guys

Between the two, this looks like a better buy than the other one.
Will wait on the movie to see if they end up somehow being awesome to make me want them... but it's cool that they included the alternate head/weapon as opposed to just milking 4 different figures.

When the one with the curvy blade gets unmasked its going to be Asajj.

I was also a bit confused what they were doing here with the heads and weapons per figure. I mean they call one "with heavy blade" but show pics of him with a whip ??? But I think it's clear multiple heads for one figure.

Wonder if they will use the sane fabric for the Imperial Guards. THat's who I'm waiting on.

I won't be getting them. No points for originality, but they do look really cool.

Yes they do look good. I think HT made a wise decision not to make 4 different figures. I don't see them selling a huge amount of these.

 

[D.R.37]

I don't see them selling a huge amount of these.

HT doesn't either But in all seriousness they are probably being careful in how they release things now considering what happened with their TFA line. Not sure if it was the amount they made or sales.

I'd say they just made too many. I'm sure given the hype, plus first new Star Wars in a long time, there must have been quite a few sold. But yes, certainly a learning point there for them. But this is OK. Means they don't spend time and resources (and production capacity) on 4 Praetorian Guard variants for example. They can use those resources now for more classic OT figures

 

[Futurion]

What a boring rubbish. Give us classic guards and Death Star Trooper.

 

[Niltusk]

They should have picked weapon colors that looked better with the Guard's armor. This red on red crap is just the troopers white cosplay crap all over again.

 

[TurdFurgusonsHat]

Thank God these abominations are being released before unimportant figures like the Emperor, ESB Lando, death star troopers, Krennic, etc.

I want the ROTJ guards.

These TLJ ones would have shelf presence but there are so many other potential figures that would take priority.

 

[Darkseed]

Meh.....I’m not feeling anything from the film yet.

 

[KerotanFrog]

The only way I see myself considering these is if they turn out to be the Knights or Ren. They do look cool though.
