Did mention it was figuarts Vader.
Rebels, yeah it's so typical how they took alladin, gave him blue hair and tripping-on-spice eyes and made him an obnoxious 'I wanna be a jedi cuz its ceeewl' character. As much as most of clone wars wasn't exactly great, and mainly only the actual clones' life and characters had great stuff (and Anakin did have a few genuinely good dark-side strife moments that were bittersweet cause they showed what could've been), especially the later arcs with the 501st (which was better than most of the prequels) gave it some quality at least. But Rebels really is the stereotype of a modern obnoxious children's show. Nothing but stereotype characters, even stereotyping gender emancipation (yet the leader AND the progeny kid are still guys). I've never understood in general why they think a children's show should have a protagonist as annoying as children can be these days? I blame political correctness. I don't remember wanting that AT ALL as a kid. I wanted to see the people who I aspired or hoped to be or otherwise were impressive and teaching to me. 90s Batman was my favourite show at freakin age 5. Never understood the 'this is for kids so the main character should be a child" logic, but I guess I wasn't an average kid or something. Batman, Spider-man, X-men, Biker Mice, Power Rangers, Dragonball Z, Pokemon, name all those better 90s shows. Yes some of the protagonists were young, teens, but they weren't obnoxious children who needed a parental figure to be kept from doing the most dumb stuff 'because it's ceeeewl' (yes you should pronounce that the way Cartman does).
Anyway, I couldn't believe when I saw Kinberg's name on it. All I can say is that show embodies everything I fear when I hear that Disney is making it. JJ, you better have your **** together, because if Disney's stupid modern stereotypical tone is gonna ruin the ST I'm gonna be one freakin powerless pissed of nerd.
