SS's SW lines (PF, 1/6, Dios) are looking and sounding so awesome. For those of you who *can't* have it all (like me), how in Sam Blaze's do you figure out what you like the best?
I'm pretty much a PF guy now but those 12 inchers have such a great connection to the toys I had as a kid. Like many my childhood wasn't defined by the only the films but the toys as well. *Everybody* had these things and got together with their friends to set up huge battles, dramas, you name it. I like the marriage of the fantastic sculpts, poseability, character depth (we certainly won't ever see an AT-AT Driver PF, one of my absolute favorite Kenner figures), and nostalgic link to toys of the past.
The PF's just "rock the house" in their class and sculpting from head to toe. Usually you can't beat their likenesses and "wow factor."
And now the Dios seem to be further blending the lines between the 1/6 figures and PF's. Smaller scale and range of character possibilities like the 12 inchers (even more range in fact), plus full sculpts and more (here's that word again) class like the PF's.
In the end I'll probably remain a PF guy (its hard to beat top all-around quality) but dang, what a decision.
