I see customizing potential in the new animated figures. Gangly? Yes, but potential. For one the wrists are more articulated, a huge plus! While being that skinny, it saves all that time dremeling figures and more time sculpting on details.

it was in a Hasbro Q&A session Q. Why did Hasbro decide to make their Clone Wars figure line incompatible with the rest of the 3.75" figure line? When it comes to play-patterns and the ability for Hasbro to reuse body-parts/components from previously released figures, this move seems like a huge gamble. Has Hasbro thought of the possibility that many collectors will pass on the figures in this line (like they did for the previous cartoon Clone Wars-inspired line) because they do not conform with the other line that has been running since 1995? A. We did not decide to make that decision ourselves - it was a collaborative decision reached with Lucasfilm in order to best match the on-screen entertainment to the toy line.� For the vast majority of kids who will be enjoying the new entertainment, this will be the relevant figure line.� Since the kids will vastly outnumber the collectors this Fall, especially for Clone Wars, this is a decision we felt was the easy one to make.� However, as discussed previously, collectors did contribute to our thinking. www.jeditemplearchives.com/content/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=3827/#details |

It appears to be. I think I saw a reveiw a while back that showed that they do, though can't remember where that was.

yeah, Julien, the wrists are ball jointed just like Gree has.
I don't know where Hasbro's saying they've made them bigger, you can see in the picture I took that Rex is clearly the same height as the 2 from the Legacy Collection.
and yeah, Dion, I definitely see customs potential in the new line too.

I also thought the animated battledroids would make good fodder for varient versions of battledroids.

we should all be a little disturbed.
I'm not sure we should let Narceron talk on the open forum anymore.

hehehe, I was waiting for that...
Well decided against going to Target for these figures for one simple fact... If I saw an AT-TE and didn't have the money for it, I might fall to my knees in the store and start crying... So I am just going to hold off on figures till I am working or get AT-TE, whichever comes first.
