Well it was Force Friday yesterday, and we had a few reveals of new product
first up 6 inch scaled ben kenobi with vinyl cape

I quite like this, has a retro feel, and the cardback is ace, only thing i can see wrong is it may be the companys 50th anniversary but not A New Hopes, but thats only a small gripe
next up is Greedo, looks like a scaled up version of the original figure

lastly a jawa, my least favourite of the  3, they missed a trick here, were is the vinyl cape? would have looked a lot better, anyway its nice but i think they made the wrong choice here

I have mixed feelings regarding Ben. The face looks great (as the previous figure did), and the vinyl has that nostalgia kick... though I don't think realistic sculpting and a vinyl cape mix well along together.

I quite like these figures, have a retro feel to them, and if i was to get them they would be staying carded, not sure how durable that vinyl cape would be, the sculpting on these is great as you said, bens face in particular

I'm glad they finally figured out how to center the logo on those vintage style black series cards. rofl
