Heh - would that the 10 point cost were real. I think Yoda would quickly become the most popular character. EVER. The new image also features an effect base, which makes Yoda look better all the time. Personally, I like the clear bluish plastic in the new image better. Joe, I think you'd mentioned wanting to make a holographic Yoda at one point before; this is probably what it'd look like. In contrast, the old version looks like "death mask Yoda", as if a plaster cast were made of his body. The dead eyes creep me out. Nevertheless, the new version's "log" is more...umm...nasty fecal in color. I'll be a bit loath to touch it at first. I wanted to make a Spirit Yoda... without a saber, but I couldn't cut mine apart. Now it will be even easier to do so, but at the same time pointless. Lastly, where did you get a new Yoda figure?!? That's not a pic I recognize from any other sources; based on the base oddities (the aforementioned 10 point cost, the 6 base speed), I'd guess this is a new proto The Attacktix Stork brought it

You are a lucky man Joe. I like the idea of a spirit Yoda, but it's kind of weird that a spirit could fight. Oh well, The figure looks great. I am going to need 10 of them for a team...... 10 Yodas vs 10 Armored Spider-men....that would be a fun match.

Im not a big fan of him setting on an effects base. It makes him sit higher than the original... And the low setting is one of the things I always liked about him.

Well "I" wanted to make a Spirit that had no saber, kind of like R2 and just had a bonus. But I couldn't cut off my Yoda's saber. This figure would make that easier - but kind of pointless since he is already "spirit-like", and with an effect.

One quick question about this new Yoda. Can you see the striker mechanism inside of it? It's clear so I'd assume you can but the camera angle doesn't show much proof for either conclusion.

They were all like "We're going to make a hologram Yoda" and I was all like "Heck yes! He needs a sweet effect to go with that" and they were all like "Peace..."

Its cool that Attacktix is starting to get some transparency in its figures. Hope this occurs more often now.

What are you trying to tell us Webhead? Are you giving us commoners a small hint at a special effect? You are so devious.

I love the figure's appearance. The translucent stuff is awesome!
Is it possible, since it's made of the translucent blue stuff (and perhaps it cant move), that this Yoda doesn't strike at all and his sole purpose is for his Effect?

I was wondering the same thing myself. And if that's the case (not to give any fuel to the "repaint haters") but how hard would it have been to give the old yoda 2 new non-saber arms?

That's my sediments exactly. When they become one with the force I don't believe they have light saber fights anymore. In fact I am sure they don't even take a light saber with them. You can't take it with you Yoda!

Peace? ........I liked Vengeance. I know it is wildly out of place for the leader of the Jedi, but it is fun. Maybe "Peace" is like "Rest in Peace" as in put half your opponents figures in their defeated pile. Maybe not. Whatever, I still want 10.
