Executor was too graphic so they went with just calling it his for marketing. Executioner on most packaging so far, but Judicial on others, so could be an Executioner who works for the Judicial Department Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAFO[TK] Posted August 20, 2017 Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 Certainly a popular character on these Aussie stamps - two pics when everyone else in the set gets one!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

camprandall Posted August 20, 2017 Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 I really dig these guys, but it kinda makes me laugh with all of the caution around prop weapons and how we troop.

"Please leave your guns at home. And welcome to our new chop-off-your-head troopers!" Although they look more violent a weapon I get the whole it's not a blaster/gun. It was nice to be able to carry something else (baton) at our EPVII premier when blasters/guns where requested not to be used, rather than the awkward hands on belt pose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAFO[TK] Posted August 20, 2017 Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 At least we're definitely looking at a bucket stripe now. Cool design.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That spawned a lot more interest in the riot baton last year. We do Alamo Drafthouse for the opening and they let us carry whatever we want, but most places now don't prefer the guns. It's fine. The First Order has lots of cool stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAFO[TK] Posted August 25, 2017 Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 Doesn't look like we're going to get consistency across the toy release. This Blacker Series version is missing the black yoke! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted August 26, 2017 Report Share Posted August 26, 2017 The elite version seems to have the black yoke though. There are definitely differences between the toys and their artwork, even the POP shows black yoke on artwork but not on the actual POP.

JAFO[TK] Posted August 26, 2017 Report Share Posted August 26, 2017 The elite version seems to have the black yoke though.

gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted August 26, 2017 Report Share Posted August 26, 2017 Once again some conflict as the packaging does have the black yoke but yet not the figure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAFO[TK] Posted August 26, 2017 Report Share Posted August 26, 2017 All fun and games. Keeping us on our toes for sure. Hopefully we'll get a good look at this bad boy when the new trailer lands in early October. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daetrin[Admin] Posted August 27, 2017 Report Share Posted August 27, 2017 I wonder how many people will just make spare bells & get a 2nd hand helmet and troop with this guy until updated parts come out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen at least two do the mod so far - bells, yoke and TD.

TK44840 has certainly got the process started I think Kit has to be a world first and whilst not entirely accurate it's pretty kickass!
