Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the dullest action figure in recent memory.Now, I’m not mad I got the Black Series Grand Admiral Thrawn from Ahsoka. Really, I’m not. Been a Thrawn fan from way back. But the thing about Thrawn is that he’s.. largely sessile. Just sitting on his tree branch, making plans. And the figure reflects that.
I mean, I used YouTube complications of ALL Thrawn’s scenes to find the background I used above, and 95% of the time he was standing hands at sides, standing hands behind him (see above), or walking hands behind him. The rest of the time he was Holding A Thing and walking like a normal person. That’s it. That’s all he does. Perfect for a basic-ass Black Series figure.
And he’s fine. I mean, he comes with one, count them, one, accessory. A shitty little pistol. But he looks right and he’s got some nice tiny paint details. But he is boring as fuck. Which makes me want to do something about that. Which, in fact, I have just started to do something about.
And, for those of you following my fascinating retail adventures, Thrawn officially marks my conscious uncoupling from Entertainment Earth, as my final preorder has been filled. I may peruse sale items there in the future, but my heart belongs to BigBad now. And my wallet. Mostly my wallet.
