Star Wars The Black Series Gaming Greats - Zaalbar 6-Inch Figure by Hasbro

Oh I Hope this means we're getting more KotOR characters. Malak, Bastila, HK-47, and so on. Just talking about Zaalbar though, I think it's reasonably safe to say that the face will come out looking better on final delivery but that vibro-sword is oversized. It looks big even for him so it's probably huge compared to a regular sized figure.
Edit: just did some quick looking around and saw that the super-sized sword is taken from his appearance in the Galaxy of Heroes game.
Hopefully this means more KOTOR figs.
Hopefully we get a male and female revan deluxe set with multiple heads for each and multiple saber colors.
Well, this was the easiest retool ever
Hopefully this means a Mandalorian Crusader is in the works.
This looks like he's just molded plastic, does he have any paint on him at all besides his face?
Out of all the characters from KOTOR you could have done... and you chose Zaalbar. Yeah, because that will put butts in seats.
Namely, Capcom has a series that had many fans begging for new content, new games. In response to this, Capcom re-released a port that had already been released maybe a dozen times. Fans bought it, but not enough. Next time talk came of a new game, Capcom replied 'lookit these numbers, not enough interest.'
Which began the stale bread metaphor. If people say they're hungry, but then they get offered bread; this bread is stale and moldy. When the bread is denied, the person replies 'guess you weren't hungry.'
'Can we get Bastila? Malgus? HK? Nihlus? Mission?'
'You can have Zaalbar.'
'... no, thanks.'
'Guess you don't want KOTOR/TOR products.'
'You can have Zaalbar.'
'... no, thanks.'
'Guess you don't want KOTOR/TOR products.'
Sword is too big plus it's going to be a missed opportunity for Hasbro to omit Mission Vao, you know, Zaalbar's trusted partner in the game?

It's accurate to his appearance in the "Galaxy of Heroes" game.
So I thought this was supposed to go up for preorder at 1pm EST today (over an hour ago) but it's still not listed.
edit: nevermind, it's up now. nearly 90 min after it was supposed to be listed.
Didn’t even bother to paint his iconic eye shadow, face proportions are off, Zaalbar is not a lighter coloured Chewie! Nihilus is not half Maul! What’s next? A blue Hera passing off as Mission? This sub line just oozes uninspired laziness. Star Wars has so many unique characters they deserve unique sculpts not these uncalled for recolours being passed of as different characters. I’m staying away from this line.
