Major Variants
*First Day of Issue foil stickers were added to assortments of The Legacy Collection Wave 1 and The Clone Wars Wave 1 figures. Each figure exists with and without the sticker. Also, the “Star Wars” logo on the front of the FDOI cards has a metallic finish.
Notes
*Unlike The Legacy Collection which has codes for the numbering system (BD, GH, SL), The Clone Wars line is numbered simply: No. 1, No. 2, etc…

5/10 Bantha Skulls
This figure would be okay except for the fact that he’s got no knees or ankles. Additionally, my sample didn’t seem to have a proper center of balance, so I had to practically bend him 45 degrees backwards to get him to stand on his own.
Standing is a basic requirement for my figures.
His likeness is pretty true to the animated version of Anakin. The paint is nice, with some good weathering. This is a trait common to many of the animated figures so far. His articulation is good from the hips up, but that’s it.
He comes with lots of accessories, mostly kid friendly. A huge missile launcher works very well – better than many missiles built onto Hasbro vehicles. He comes with a lightsaber and a…rope with handles thing. Whatever. I guess it works.
The face sculpt is good.
This figure, along with many of the animated styled figures, is made from a pretty soft plastic. I’m not a fan. The “skinny” sculpting also makes them seem extra flimsy.
Anyway, if you’re into the animated line, this is a decent addition. I just don’t think these are as good as the realistic figures.
