2010 Clone Wars Figures Wave 4

Ok, so here are my thoughts on the Clone Wars 2010 wave 4 figures  (Except for R4-P17 as I don't collect Astromechs).

Mandalorian Warrior: A very nice figure! I really like this figure. It is a good figure for troop building an army of Mandalorians. The helmet is really nice and looks great on the Mandalorian Warrior body. This figure comes with a jetpack which has that flick fire thing that shoots out of the jetpack. He also comes with three Mandalorian pistols. He has a holster on his hip area where he can put one pistol on each side. I'm going to rate this figure at 8/10 as it is a good troop building figure but there is nothing really special to it.

Shaak Ti: This is an interesting figure. I like this figure, but I don't like the cloak on her as it always slips off so there is no point keeping the cloak on. However, aside from the issue with the cloak it is a really good figure. She comes with her lightsaber and is very accurate to her appearance in the season 3 premiere episodes of the TV seies, "Clone Cadets" and "ARC Troopers". Her  Head tails are very accurate as well. I'm going to rate this figure at 7/10 as I feel the cloak could have fitted better on Shaak Ti.

Boba Fett: Boba Fett doesn't make for a great figure in this line. The figure looks much more sinister and evil than he was in the season 2 finale of the TV series. Boba Fett has a lot of articulation (Even though it is stiff) and he has ankle articulation which isn't often in the Clone Wars line at the moment. His face can't move upwards and has minimal movement. He comes with a jetpack and two blaster pistols which can be placed in his holster. Like Shaak Ti, i'm giving Boba a rating of 7/10 as his movement could have been better.

Embo: Embo is an interesting choice for a figure. He is a great character but his figure is not so great. The hat is sculpted very nicely however there is absolutely no movement on his head. He has good knee and ankle articulation which is always good for a figure to have. He also has elbow articulation. He comes with a crossbow which fits very snugly into either hand. The detail on the chest area of the figure is excellent as well. I'm going to give this figure a 8/10 rating as I feel with head movement, it could have been a much better figure!
