With Star Wars: The Phantom Menace back in theatres, a new toy line has been released to coincide with it. This new line is comprised of figures from Episode I and includes card board 3-D glasses.
As you can see, the figure's card has a 3-D image that works with the provided glasses. It's neat, but not exactly a selling point. Regardless, the few figures I have are pretty neat.
Just judging by looking at the figures in their packages, these are most certainly repacks. I am somewhat certain I have this exact Yoda from the Saga Legends line, but I could be wrong.
Overall, the Tusken Raider is a pretty neat figure. The only other one I have is from the Power of the Force 2 line, so this is a nice upgrade from that.
The figure itself is pretty articulate. Almost what I would expect from the Vintage Collection. He has a ball socket head, ball jointed shoulders, ball jointed ankles and knees, swivel hips and waist, and swivel elbows and wrists. I am a little disappointed with the elbows being swivel, but it works fairly well with the cloak on, so not a major complaint.
For accessories, the raider comes with a long rifle, a blunt object of sorts, a stand, and a fabric cloth that is easily removed.
Overall, I'm not entirely sure this figure was worth it over others. It is a neat figure, but with limited elbow articulation, pose-ability goes down.
Articulation: Decent, except for the swivel elbows that are slightly awkward.
Paint: The paint on this figure is spot on. Every detail on the figure is painted exceptionally well and is very distinct.
Sculpt: The sculpt looks great, especially the iconic Tusken Raider head. Everything is spot on here.
Accessories: With the sniper rifle and "stick" the Tusken Raider has pretty of weapons. Additionally, with the removable cloak, you could use this figure as an army builder and has some variation.
