Star Wars: The Black Series - Gaming Great Darth Nihilus Figure
So getting this!
All I see is sad clown cat
Ordered!
It looks like he's using Darth Maul's legs which is kind of disappointing since in the game he was weirdly tall. While this is really cool news on its own it's really just got me more hyped on the idea of getting other characters from the first game now since this shows that the "Gaming Greats" sub-line is finally getting away from strict repaints.
I'm going to have to pick this guy up for sure.
He looks like Darth Maul pretending to be a different sith during a costume party.
The head/face looks totally wrong to me. Like bad face paint instead of a really cool mask.
On further analysis, and looking back at how he looked in the game, this figure is more and more disappointing to me. The figure is mostly Darth Maul with only the head, biceps, and skirt piece actually being new parts. Even with these new parts he still doesn't have the right look, Nihilus' skirt went down to the floor and totally enveloped his legs, while his torso garment appeared smooth (not layered robing) and seemed connected to the cape.
It needs a better cape and a better mask plus the skirt needs to be longer but other than that, I'll consider this to complement Darth Revan. I hope Darth Sion isn't far behind.
