Pin-Head's brother became a Sith.
Well, since I'm on a Sith streak might as well get the big kahuna himself, the
Grand Inquisitor. He is a rather curious figure, for various reasons...
For starters, while he
debuted in the Rebels CG show, his very first Black series figure is based on his
blander Kenobi incarnation. His head is not as long and angular, and his face markings are not as creepy, and it all makes him look
not even half as threatening. The constipated face paint they gave him doesn't help with that either. That said, he isn't half bad, it's just that they could've gone with a much better version of the character. Much as it happened with another figure(
SPOILERS!), but I'm getting ahead of myself. I do like the soft goods cape, and he has a ton of sculpting
unique to him. His only accessory is his light saber... more on it later.
The articulation is the usual: Single jointed knees and elbows, butterfly-joints and a ball jointed ab crunch. He also has swivels on his thighs.
His saber is kinda
garbage. His hands are too hard, and there are TWO pegs on the handle that make it hard for him to hold it well. I might cut off those pegs because, really, I'll never store his blade on his back. He is as tall as Bucky Cap.
I've been harsh on him, and while a lot of my complaints are valid... others just come off out of me not thinking they picked the best version of the Grand Inquisitor.
