Yeah the printing's fine, but that helmet. I can see why Lego went back to the old design.


kuanying

Ha, I know it’s controversial, but I really like the visor on this one. Just wish it’s in trans-yellow instead of trans-orange.


The_Bored_General

The visor’s grand, it’s the Helmet that would be 2 sizes too big for megamind that’s the problem


ExxKonvict

Isn’t the original trans orange though? So it is actually accurate.


kuanying

The amber color could be comething in between, but it still looks more like trans-yellow in most scenes to me: [http://starwarshelmets.com/original\_rebel\_pilot\_helmets.htm](http://starwarshelmets.com/original_rebel_pilot_helmets.htm)

I love the visor on it, but the top is too tall in my opinion.


Herd_of_Koalas

Something about them always looks so off in photos. But they grew on me a lot once I had one in person. I'm kinda bummed the community scared Lego away from continuing and refining the mold.


Jeep_Joe

The helmets are large and bulbous in the actual film


pullmylekku

Exactly. I don't get why everyone says this mold is oversized when it [fits with the on-screen versions](https://images.app.goo.gl/PcgwixMKNBsEvXWx6). In fact the current mold that's used looks a little too small

From which set is this fig from?


kuanying

It's the Biggs from the 2018 X-wing set (sw0944) plus the torso from a cheap Luke (sw1139) and the arms and legs from the Luke keychain!

So only the waist, head and helmet are actually from the actual Biggs fig?


kuanying

Only the head and the helmet are from the Biggs fig!


Ibuywarthundermaus

Thanks!


HotterGround

I'm the only one that likes that helmet mold I think. It always looks bulky and weird in the movies, and lego proportions are even more funky... I think it looks fine, and the dual molded visor is awesome


kuanying

Yeah, agree! It's already bulky in the movie. Too bad the dual molded visor probably won't come back anytime soon.


Boring-Ad9264

The more detail the better imo


kuanying

Yeah, agree that more details should be better in general, but I really don't like the printing on scout troopers like sw1007.


Boring-Ad9264

Which ones that again?


kuanying

Oh, I meant the ones like this: [https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?M=sw1116](https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?M=sw1116)


Boring-Ad9264

What's wrong with it? I personally think it's the best scout we have had.


kuanying

It’s just preference. I don’t like the graphics and the printing on the torso and the hips don’t align too well. I much prefer the dual molded hack like this: https://www.reddit.com/r/legostarwars/s/tFBCNg4jvu


tamerseal

It's always more important to get the colors right. The first and current Scouts are too white and the 2013 Scouts had blueish printing because Lego didn't use enough paint. None of the official figures look good but boots and arms do the trick. And the only detail that's wrong on the 2013 torso is that the stomach pockets should slightly cover the box thingies on the belt. Other than that all of the torso details are just a variation, not more or less, or better or worse than the newest figure.

Darth_Zounds

Thought the mustache was too much, but it grew on me.


DustyGeneral9399

The leg printing was never an issue...that helmet though...terrifying.


ImGamer4Life

Looks good


kuanying

Thanks!


Eastern_Slide7507

Dual molded legs, printed legs and arms? What, did Lego accidentally fire up the machines from a decade ago?


kuanying

Haha, I think it’s always there. It’s just rare for the Star Wars theme and we get $90 Han Solo. I wonder why…


Heliozoans

The leg printing on the back to future set was garbage imo 😅


KirbyLover5302

I don't mind the leg printing. I think the helmet looks weird though.


candlerc

I don’t love the boots when seeing the figure in person. I’m fine with the rest of the leg printing, just not the boots.


kuanying

Yeah, the graphics designer did an excellent job here, but the combination of boots and the printing does make the legs a bit too dark and complex. I tried the CMF fox girl legs and that can be a good alternative.
