* * * This figure is just a waste of plastic. CC looks like a used feminine hygiene product. * * *

I agree completely...in the very LEAST we they could have given us the red helmeted version as an easter egg ode to true collectiors who'd have known it was Red Laser.

I think I'm getting one of these. The silver visor is a nice touch. While I don't mind a red commander, I agree that a helmeted commander would have been cooler.
Overall though, I think the biggest missed opprotunity with this set would have been doing them all in the original crimson red, with silver ropes & piping on the jacket. It would be more in line with the original figure & cartoon, not to mention more visually striking.
I wonder if the upcomming CG troop builder pack won't follow that scheme.

Does anyone know the price point on these?
If it's 15$ I'm only getting 1. (unless that red CC looks good with tomax/xamot heads then It'll be 3)
but if it's 10$ Then I'm all over this set. The red CC would basically be free.

I don't mind the CC and if he were single packed I'd buy him. However I don't need/want multiples so I'm not going to spend extra money to get the CGs.

No one likes the Red Cobra Commander!!
I've been hoping for a updated version of the original Imperial figure, so I am pretty excited about it.
Very hip!

i find the officer dissapointing. i don't mind the black accent to the uniform at all, but the gold face mask and additional gold coloring on the belt really throw it off for me. all the artworks shows silver face masks and silver trim. i plan on painting all mine silver (normal figures).

red cc is just plain silly looking.

i'll buy this one just because i'm a completest but i'll be waiting and hoping for more color accurate figures later.
