Here’s another Rebels character that got the 5POA treatment, just like all the others in the one true scale.  As far as character choice goes, it’s a decent one from the series, as we have 3 of the 4 Inquisitors now.  Actually, it makes it that much more annoying that the Eighth Brother is yet to be realized in plastic form.

I liked the inquisitors.  The show doesn’t shed much light on their past, but they are all apparently fallen Jedi.  This guy also lost his hand in some kind of training episode with Darth Vader himself.  He’s yet another victim of that gruesome Star Wars staple: dismemberment.  Fifth Brother was humanoid, although his precise species is unknown.  I feel it would have been cool to see a Rob Gronkowski sized human-ish Jedi in AOTC or ROTS.  It’s almost too easy that this man of tremendous stature is evil.  Regardless, with the 4 Inquisitors revealed in the show, I feel Filoni did a decent job with all of them not being too ridiculous as punching bag villains of the week.

The figure itself isn’t bad to look at, at least as far as the cartoony 5POA figures might be not be bad to look at.  It’s a large figure.  Simply sculpted, it portrays the animated character accurately.  Fifth Brother (who often goes by “5-Bro” when he’s off duty) stands with assuredness and menace.  The joints work as well as expected, and the ball jointed head actually works better than many of the ball jointed heads in the line over the past few years.  The paint on the body is simple but decently applied.  The face sculpt looks accurate, but the paint on my sample seems kind of…blendy.  The eyes and lips disappear into the face, so the overall effect is not as striking or sharp as it should be. 

The figure comes with the Inquisitoriousouses’ signature spinning double-bladed lightsaber.  5-Bro holds it firmly in his hand, but like his teammates, he can’t really do much with it other than hold it out like he’s asking someone to take a look at it.  The silly build-a-weapon is a huge fork gun with which the wielder can eat a giant salad.  I should probably put these pieces together some day and see if they actually build anything useful, like an easel, or weather balloon.

I took some measurements, and he’s about 63.378 times the mass of Seventh Sister.  That figure could stand to have a snack or two.  Actually, come to think of it, that figure can’t stand without you expending a lot of blood, sweat, and tears.  If you don’t have any to spare, you could always use some Earth, Wind, and Fire instead.  In a real emergency, you could also try some Emerson, Lake, and Palmer.  But I had some blood, sweat and tears, so that’s what went into getting that last image.  Well, I’m exaggerating on the blood.  There wasn’t any, really.  And it’s kind of chilly, so there wasn’t any sweat.  At least 1/3 of that statement is true, though.  The tears were flowing.  You should appreciate the work that went into getting that last picture.  Please make a $500 donation in my name to the HasLab Sail Barge campaign. 

Okay, I finally took care of my contractual requirements.  Stay tuned to Bantha Skull for more Sail Bargey goodness.  Sail Barge.
