This version of Ki-Adi-Mundi is awesome. The figure is based upon a concept sketch of Mundi for Revenge of the Sith. The goal was to characterize the character so he showed that the Clone Wars have taken their toll on the jedi. Unfortunately this idea was scrapped for episode 3. The figure itself is very well detailed. The lighter color of the blade gives it more of an artistic feel. To my surprise the fugue is fully articulated. Overall I would recommend this to any Star Wars action figure collector.

I have this one 0n card, but I may want to pick up a couple to open: One as is for my Jedi shelf and others to customize.  I can see a great deal of potential for this one as a smuggler or pirate or bounty hunter.

I like this almost rogue pirate approach to McQuarrie's vision of Jedi Master Ki. I have only seen this one in the wild once, and sent that one to Greg.

Thanks for the review and pics.

I've seen this one several times, but still no snowtrooper.

I wonder why they scrapped this look for episode 3, makes the jedi seem so much tougher.  Currently, they look like our generals, you know, make decisions from the command center and never get frazzled or injured, lol.

Does he have hip articulation?

The hips have swivel articulation.
