I want to vote for Rex in Round Two, because I like his character so much and LEGO got his face perfectly, but the rest of his minifig is sadly pretty uninspired. So I have to go for Vader - he is a must-have in every Star Wars minifig collection, his torso- and legprinting is well done, and I really dig the new two-part helmet mould. So Vader it is. Why not Boba? Well, frankly, it's a nice minifig and I had to get him as well, but I got him way after Vader and some other CHARACTERS, because Fett is not really a character in the movies and I don't care much more for him than I do for a Jawa or Tusken Raider...

It was a hard choice between Darth Vader and Boba Fett, but I had to go with Darth Vader, beacuse of the new style of helmet.

Fett or Vader...... hmmm, a really tough choice. As a character I've always liked Boba for some reason. But I do not have a Vader figure so that kind of intrigues me. I guess I'll go with Fett. Man, hard choice.  I feel like Vader is probably the more accurate figure, but Boba is just too classic for me to pass up. Though that angry clone face....

Also should you change your name to BobaFan2187 since you voted for Boba @VaderFan2187  :laugh:

The clones have the wrong skin color, are missing their helmets, and are relatively light on detail. Especially Rex is missing some arm printing, and he doesn't really have any of his characteristic blue color. Rebels Vader is another nice addition, for Rebels fans and OT fans (as his torso is unique in having the ANH details). I don't like the new helmet mold that much anymore. Its functionality is nice, but it just looks off. The comically styled old helmet actually looks more serious to me. Also, they skimp out on heads a lot, and the re-use of this particular 'redemption' head is completely inappropriate for the Rebels time period. Death Star Trooper is a nice one to get, but nothing special. I wanna say Boba's my favorite, but this particular 2016 version is just a downgrade of the 2015 version.

So I'm gonna go with the Duros :grin: Really nice figure. Very detailed and doesn't need any dual molding, so since they're refusing to use dual-molding in SW sets he isn't missing something crucial. The reconfigurability of the torso's and legs in that particular BP is awesome, and this figure is also very versatile. I also love the jetpack.

Would love to chose Vader - the helmet molds are phenomenal, the EP IV torso print is also great. But without mods the figure is still way too short! I put on additional pieces, so that he doesn't look like a child next to Ahsoka. To be perfect he'd need long legs & a shoulder piece for his armor.

Has to be Boba. The figure has just phenomenal printing & colours.

I would actually go with the Death Star Trooper IF he had leg printing (which could have easily been an existing pair of legs, no need for new prints) - the torso is far more accurate than the last one. Boba is pretty sweet, of course, but i prefer the gray one from the last desert skiff.

So I will vote for the other guy in black: Vader - primarily because of the new ANH torso.
