Action Figure #672: Star Wars The Black Series Shaak Ti

 No Force Unleashed Tribal Shaak Ti yet it seems...

 Don't ask me why, but even before watching Clone Wars I've had a thin for master Shaak Ti, I guess I always found her design very striking. So it surprised me how long it took for her to get a Black Series action figure!
 She came out great due to a smart use of soft goods for her skirt and jacket. Aside from her white and blue leks, most of her robes are made up of different shades of reds and browns. I do like the intricate pattern design on the piece that lies over her skirt, and the pattern on her lek came out pretty good.
 All that said, and I've seen this on other copies, but the white pain on her face can be a bit uneven sometimes. Mine's not too bad, but I've seen worse.
 While you are not supposed to see it, due to the long skirt, I feel like her platform boots are a bit too stylish for a frugal Jedi Master. I'm pretty sure I've seen these boots before, but I couldn't quite place from which figure. Her only accessory is her light saber.
 Articulation is appropriate for the figure. She has single jointed elbows with deep cuts, butterfly joints, a ball jointed waist, double jointed knees and swivels on her boots and thighs. Due to the soft goods, her legs have their full range of mobility. Her head sits lower than Bucky Cap's, but the top of her leks make her taller overall!
 This figure is everything I wanted and expected out of Shaak Ti. She is prone to having a few paint app issues, thankfully mine were pretty mild.
