As for Resolute SE (aka City Strike SE) as I mentioned I thought he was just same old song and dance that we have recieved for the past 25+years. Guy in black (or mostly black and grey) with a sword and gun and really it added nothing to the character at all that was different from the past 50 versions, at this point I have well over 30 SE's and they are all pretty much the same, gets a bit repetitive after a while. In fact they even gave us the Goggles (single pack) or visor (Target Multi-pack) versons to deal with as well. In my opinion (and just my opinion) P Pursuit at least added something to SE (yes just a trenchcoat, but it was something we hadn't seen him with before) and thus he became unique amoung a sea of black and grey visors and goggles. Again you don't have to agree, but that is my view since you asked. |

I'm surprised to see Arctic threat SS and Paris pursuit SE, which are basically headswap repaints, and not CS SE. The list was entertaining though. Good job!

That is your perogtive to not agree, I never said anyone had to agree with me at all, said that in the introduction in fact.

Gotcha, We are def. different types of collectors, I guess the article was mostly a browse over b/c I dont like figures with T crotch hips which seem to be the ones you like the most. Nice list though, very professional.

Then again with Jedi I am a bit more loose about the hip articulation much for the same reason, its rare to see one kick that way (in fact I am stuck to think of a time in the films one did). And to be fair the majority of the T-crotch were SW, and yes I am a big SW fan (The only t-crotch I can remember that isn't SW is superman prime, and I freely admit much of him was the uber cheap price I got him for). Lastly SW has had that articulation for years, The new bespin luke might be a change in that but hard to be certain at this point, still it is part of collecting SW figs at this point. |

A couple of questions for you guys (and no I am not being a smart arse, I mean it in all sinserity). What exactly has CS SE brought that no other version has, I mean I have the figure and I do think he is ok, but again he is a bit repetitive when you compare him to all the versions that went before (again in my opinion).
So in all sinserity, what is it that I am not seeing in this figure that you guys are, just out of curiosity.
