September 17, 2008 : And lo there shall come a Maul
OK, I know this is going to require photos, but I promised DSTRyan that I’d let him use the pic for his blog, so you’ll just have to see him for visuals. I got the T1 of Darth Maul and gave it a thorough review. “How thorough a review?” you ask - let’s put it this way: Have you ever seen someone with a rubber glove tell an action figure to turn its head and cough? No? Me either, that’s just sick. But, I did a part-by-part comparison with the approved sculpted prototype and a joint-by-joint functionality test. There were a few parts missing and a few parts that were modified to make them factory-ready, but all in all this is one awesome toy. I can’t wait to see the next sample. It should have all of the parts, all of my changes, and (hopefully) working electronics. When THAT one comes, I’m keeping the photos for my blog. Period.
