70069 Series 1
(part 2/3)
5. Marla
When I first saw the photos, I hated the face. The crosseyed looked particularly horrid, but I think the worse part was the too strong "blush" on her cheeks (I always prefered the softer ones, regarding that)... Made her look stupid and completely drunk, imo. However, all the ones we got had those color spots quite discreet, and so doesn't really look bad (though the eyes still bother me some).
Figure vs. Sticker Marla is depicted in the sticker without the bag, and the clothes are perfect . I don't really like the sticker's pose, but.. maybe it's on.. I will make up my mind after I see the movie.
6. Sheriff
He has a quite distinctive face. A shame the eyebrows are so... dark. Because Phil Keoghan.
Figure vs. Sticker The Sheriff is quite alike the sticker. I just think the hat mold is not really the correct one.
7. Centurion
The cape doesn't work perfectly with these roman arms. But it's doable. Bracers are pretty, but I find them too long for the arms - it should be on the wrist, not all the way up to the sleeve. IMO, these don't really work with roman arms (not a new issue though). Maybe there should be a shorter version, with only one buckle.
The printed sleeves are great. And both torso and legs have new print designs, not to mention colors.
Figure vs. Sticker The Centurion is another perfect playmomatch with the sticker.
8. Robotitron
I suppose the accessories have to do with the movie, so... can't really comment on it (see what I mean? Movie FIRST. THEN figures. ) My sister noted R2-D2 (she's a SW fan) also serves drinks. Just sayin'.
He is almost the same as the old one, which is kinda lame.
Figure vs. Sticker The only difference here is the blue top of the antenna on the sticker.
