The ken-only-bi wan.
And now, we're down to the last figure of this fantastic three pack,
Obi-Wan Kenobi, young Obi-Wan in fact. I used to own a figure of this particular version of Obi-Wan, as well as Qui-Gon, so I'm quite happy to have both of this guys again.
Obi-Wan looks great, the likeness to Ewan McGregor is excellent, although my one gripe would be that his look is a bit too angry from what I'd
expect from Obi-Wan... but it probably represents Obi-Wan after Qui-Gon was murdered, so I'll take it. Also, I would've made his hair a darker shade of brown. That aside, I love how he came out. And much like Qui-Gon, he too comes with a brown coat, albeit a bit darker.
The articulation matches Qui-Gon's, but he has the same updated robes as Mace, so he gets butterfly joints that grant him more range. That said, he does have one little
annoyance...
...he has the same downward hip pegs as Padme. These articulate much better than Padme's, but it still feels a bit awkward to play around with. I don't know why they decided to do this instead of using normal, straight pegs, but I don't like it.
Despite his legs, Obi-Wan is another banger. I love having my Jedi collection
grow, as I initially planned on buying more Star Wars figures before Covid hit and we were impacted with MORE limitations to imported packages.
