1/6 Hot Toys Rey, BB-8 review

Last week, I covered a new Hot Toys Star Wars figure - the Battlefront Shock Trooper - and I wasn't all that happy. This week, I'm looking at the Force Awakens Rey and BB-8 two pack, and the results are very, very much different. You can find my review here:

Thanks for reading!

Love her character but that headsculpt is just dead.

Great review! The score is well deserved, I think this is easily one of the best figure sets ever.

If you don't want BB-8, you cold, heartless bastard, you can pick up just Rey for around $225.

Way more alive than the Leia everyone raves about.

Michael... You said "She comes with several weapons as well, including her father's light saber."

Do you know something we don't know? I'd say that was a bit of a spoiler.

How is my speculation a spoiler? I speculated that BB is actually R2 as well. Speculations aren't spoilers, although I'd say that Luke being her father is about 99% obvious at this point.

Great review! I enjoyed reading it all, great photos too!

Yeah I think people on here make way too big a deal about the "blank expression" thing. Most of us probably have these figures in museum poses anyway, as if the actors are posing for a promo or magazine cover or something, and most of the time they don't show any real expression in those either. And personally I think they still look pretty damn cool:

Awesome review dude!!!!

99% confirmed ._.' wtf xD

Or is she Luke's father?!

...and then they do a very emotional intense look like Finn, and everyone absolutely loses their minds with rage (myself included). No one can win with this audience....you know, until they're taking cart-loads of our cash to the bank!
