Umbra-Manis Posted May 9, 2017 Posted May 9, 2017 Let's go alien trooper! That head is one of the best alien heads to come around since SPIII. Quote
1980-Something-Space-Guy Posted May 9, 2017 Posted May 9, 2017 Undisputably the Alien Trooper for me. I'll admit I was tempted to vote for Mr. Gold to curse the crap out of him, but he seems to be doing pretty badly without my help already. Quote
LittleJohn Posted May 9, 2017 Posted May 9, 2017 This was one of the toughest rounds for me so far, deciding between the Hiker and Grandma Visitor was brutal. Ended up going for Grandma Visitor, but only by the slimmest of margins. Quote

As a builder: Using it for anything would quickly damage the chrome, displaying it at a show would be a good way to lose it. As a parts person: There were no cool parts with it that didn't already exist. The prints weren't even exceptional other than the fact it was nearly-fully chromed. Personally, I can't see even one reason to vote for that figure. Quote

Personally, I can't see even one reason to vote for that figure. Couldn't agree more. Maybe I wouldn't dislike the figure as a collector so much if they had placed one per box. But heck, it quickly became more expensive than the Chrome C-3PO, and that I'll never understand. 52 minutes ago, VaderFan2187 said: Exclusitivity, plus he has printing on an awesome chrome body! Sounds like someone is biased by owning the figure? Quote

I guess the thing I like about Mr. Gold was that it was a celebration of 10 minifigure series. Sadly they didn't make it more widely available, so not many people were able to be part of the celebration, which to me renders it somewhat useless. Oh well. He's getting his shiny butt kicked very badly. I expect him to come out with many scratches and chrome paint peeling off. Quote

As an owner of Mr.Gold, I can also say that owning one in no way caused me to like or dislike it any more than not owning one. I'm ready for the next round! Quote

BrickJagger Posted May 10, 2017 Posted May 10, 2017 Looks like I threw my vote away with Mr. Gold. @VaderFan2187 , you are no longer alone Quote

Trust me, nothing has hurt me the most aside from the Clockwork robot's sad loss. I don't think I'll get over that. I'm sure this is the work of army builders wanting to make an army of hikers. Quote

Robert8 Posted May 10, 2017 Posted May 10, 2017 (edited) Oh @BrickHat, don't you see it? The reason why all the SciFi characters have failed is because you voted for them! This is on you Edited May 10, 2017 by Robert8 Quote
